Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. I confirmed that I can register new accounts on my custom homeserver from app.element.io.
2. Then I tried the same from the Android app.
3. I replaced "matrix.org" with my homeserver URL ("matrix.example.com", the same one I used on app.element.io).
4. I get a pop-up saying "The application is not able to create an account on this homeserver. Do you want to signup using a web client?"
5. I select "yes".
6. I am sent to a browser with the URL "http://matrix.example.com/_matrix/static/client/register" and the response is:
```json
{"errcode":"M_UNRECOGNIZED","error":"M_UNRECOGNIZED: Not Found"}
```
To be clear, I'm not certain that URL is actually what's being requested, because the URL bar is truncated and only shows: "http://matrix.example.com/_matrix/static/client/registe...". I'm not able to interact with this browser in any way to get the complete URL. I can't even rotate my phone to get a landscape UI.
