Also having the same issue - Bell Atrix here, unlocked and running gingerbread build 4.5.2A-11_OLE-7.
Fingerprint scanner options are present, but when you go to record your fingerprint, nothing happens, as if you didn't swipe your finger...

I am having the exact same issue.. ever since i flashed gingerblur....

if you pull the battery for a few minutes then boot the phone back up it should start working. Atleast it did for me! Let me know if it works for you

there's a fix for the fingerprint scanner on HKTW 2.3.4. you can try that one. i havent read anything about the fingerprint scanner not working with kenn's rom so i dont think there's a fix for that one.

scratch that, aaronf6983 was right

[Q] CM7 touch input stopped working

I'm currently running CM7 alpha3 since 2 days.
Suddenly the touch input isn't working anymore. Not a big deal if I could restart.. but I can't.
The OS still runs, the few hardware buttons work but they are not enough to restart it.
Adb doesn't find my device.
Is there any other way than waiting until the battery runs out?

long press power and home until it restarts.
I have had to hold Home, Power and Volume Up to get the TP to shut down after losing touch input.
Any devs know about this bug? I cant post in the dev forum yet.
So, this bug isn't permanent? Forcing a reboot fixes it? Receiving a TP in a couple of days, and want to make sure i don't end up with a non functional device.

[App] New Camera From The Google Experience Phones

So i took the APK from this thread and made it work for our device. this will only work on AOSP roms that have a CM10.1 base. If you would like to try it, go ahead and flash in recovery. Please have a nandroid just in case, each phone is different and although it works for some it might not work for all.
THIS WILL NOT FIX ANY EXISTING PROBLEMS THAT THE CAMERA HAS, ITS JUST THE NEW UI .
NEW GE 4.2.2 camera Flash in recovery.
OLD CM10.1 camera Flash in recovery.
I will try my best to help anyone out that needs it. feel free to comment here or PM me. :victory:

i think i can get photosphere working if you would like to try it. i did it for the rezound before. it requires a 3lib files to turn it on. ^_^
Edit:
going to be a little harder than i thought. i can get it to turn on. but when i move the phone around it FC. Going to have to do a log cat and figure what is what.
Edit2:
Got the full dump, even better to work with.

yeah i kinda of figured as much when the FC was calling for it but i was able to use the tilt sensor to do it. But the phone now crashes when stitching the photos.
im trying to get help on it now but progress has been slow, just moved into a new house and still setting everything up.
so what's the new ui look like - can some post / link a screen shot? is this it....
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/06/27/download-new-stock-camera-app-from-google-play-edition-phones/
after reading the original thread it seems safe to install this as it will not overwrite the stock camera app / gallery. can anyone confirm that on our phone?
thanks for the work to to port this over for our use!!!

You should do a "Lol" or something at the end of your post cause at this point you sound like a pushy obnoxious ass. He don't owe you anything so watch how you post especially when inquiring about ETA's from any Android developer who does this for free, fun and on their own time for the community

[Q] Specific ROM Help

OK, so I haven't posted much in this forum in general because I haven't had a need to really. I find what I need read and move on. But because of that I can't post in the developer section to ask this question before I flash this ROM so I will ask it here. So I'm going to take the plunge and flash Newts NOS m7 ROM. But after reading about 60% of a 949 page thread I do have some confusion. There were some updates and patches I'm going to call them for a lack of better term. I don't need to run any type of beast mode kernel. So what patches or fixes do I need to add in order for everything to work on this ROM? And I'm choosing this one over the alpha Sense 5 ROM based on data working with Verizon and not working with the alpha. At least nothing has been posted that it's working in all aspects now. I appreciate the help and hope that I can be rocking the NOS rom by tonight before I go to bed.
Really? No help out of 60 views?

If you install the full rom, you don't need any of the patches.
Well I have the full app plus a couple of the other downloads that are mentioned to have off the bat. But has the ROM download been updated with the patches that fix stuff? Thank you for your response by the way.

3.0.7 is the only thing you need to have as of today it contains everything, patches are minor small updates and newtoroot usually will tell you what patch you need when they are released.
Sent from my dlx using XDA Premium HD app
So you are saying that the kernel patch, the call patch, and the other patch are all included in the 3.0.7 build and I shouldn't worry about them even though people are having issues with the ROM in certain areas such as what the patches fix? I'm asking for clarification because I can't afford to screw up my one and only phone. Besides Viper Rom this Nos 7 Rom seems to be the best out there for what I want until the update comes out. This is me being cautious and doing my research. I don't want to sound like a jerk. Just trying to have everything lined up right.

Again.... just install the full rom. All is included.. Don't see how you could be confused with that statement.

All you really need to worry about if it says full Rom or not. If it is a full Rom flash it after that there is nothing else to do.

Thanks for the help. I should just take the plunge but like I said before I'm just trying to do all the research that I need and to be as well read on it before I just jump into something. I'm not a first time rooter or flasher of ROM's. This one just has me timid because even the latest posts in the thread of the ROM is saying there are data issues. So I hope you can see where my concern is coming from. I'll flash it tomorrow and see what happens from there though.
OK, so I just took the plunge and did the flash. One problem I have right off the bat is that Gmail keeps closing and failing. I can't have that because all of my most important e-mails come in thru that. So is there a fix or do I just have to go back to stock?

Never heard of that issue. I would just re-wipe and re-install the rom.

Did you even wipe data or did you just install the rom and hope that you wouldn't have to do anything about your already installed apps?
Seriously??!! Oh just install the ROM it's totally fine. Yeah well it's not fine. GMAIL is broke and I HAVE TO HAVE IT WORK!! Come on people help me out!!

You won't get any help if you don't tell us what you did..... I have never heard of ANY rom that gmail doesn't work.
and YELLING AT PEOPLE DOESN'T HELP EITHER.
Well, it wasn't meant to come out as yelling. And I didn't do anything but install the ROM just like everyone kept telling me to do. Oh and the weather on the lock screen is broke too. It always says no weather data available.
Well nothing like feeling even more of an ass. I never saw the replies I had already gotten from you guys. I guess my page wouldn't refresh. I'll wipe it and re flash it on I guess. I did all the stuff I needed to do before flashing it so I"m in the clear on that one. I'm not sure as to what all the extra apps that I've never seen before are but I'm ok with that for now. Oh, um isn't there suppose to be a swipe screen to wake feature on this ROM? I can't find it.
So G-mail is back to working now. I reflashed the ROM and did a cache and dalvik cache wipe. I also did the lock screen patch and volume to wake patch. I still don't have weather on the lock screen though. And the little click sounds that are turned on for me for when I unlock or lock the screen....yeah I can't hear them.
So, everything works now. Go figure....well minus those sounds that for some reason I actually really really liked having turned on before I flashed this. Maybe they will just start working again too.

So, in other words, all of your problems were self inflicted.
Do the flashing process properly next time and you won't have these issues.
Nope not self inflicted. I did the flash exactly the way I was suppose to. Not sure why flashing it a second time worked but it did. Now to figure out how my nanddroid back up got deleted.....or if it's just hidden and I don't know where it is. I use TWRP recovery by the way.

Double tap to wake broken

Has anyone encountered the "double tap to wake" function being broken and fixed it?
For me it doesn't work on Pixel Experience and Nitrogen on my 128gb Poco. On my gfs 64gb it works perfectly.
I've tried everything from format to clean flash to older ROMs and tried to update them but the function never works
Curiously on Nitrogen the tap to sleep functions work even on lockscreen but not to wake! On Nitrogen I reverted my vendor to 9.1.07 from latest build and made no difference.
Also tried Frankie kernel, extreme and Sphinx, no effect.
It worked perfectly on latest MIUI global(I unlocked the new 128gb today)
So back to opening question, anyone see this and fix it?
Banpp??
i have the same issue 6/128 gb poco

I just went and fully installed latest MIUI beta, then I clean wiped everything and internal, flashed latest vendor 9.1.24, flashed Rom gapps etc and the tap to wake still isn't working.
I did the same. Weird as fk it works on stock miui and doesn't work on aosp,clean flashes and everything

This has been going for me for two weeks . Honestlt thought i was tapping it the wrong way. But with miui it works fine so dunno.

This must be specific to 128/6gb variant, because most people bought 64/6gb variant and hence majority don't face such issue.
Might be fixed if you provide logs to developers though

how do i do it like , I start the log , turn the screen off and start tapping it? and who do is send it to?
same for me: no working double tap to wake function on my f1 128gb. Nevertheless the dttw function works perfectly on original rom...hope really someone can fix this!
Can I help a dev by sending log of test something out? @abhishek987 maybe?
On latest build (2019-01-21) and vendor 9.1.21-9.0
Apparently it may be due to out touchscreen model l, mine being "fts_ts". Since it works on MIUI maybe developers just don't include our touch panel?
Everyone who sees this its rixed in the upcoming release of Nitrogen!!
not working here to (los16) maybe it has something to do with the ebbg_fhd_ft8719 panel 6/128 gb model
Yes, dttw is working on Los16 for ft-panels !
yep can confirm dt2w working with latest build lineage-16.0-20190206-UNOFFICIAL-beryllium.zip

Question FP sensor on A13 beta

I notice the fingerprint sensor is greatly improved on A13 beta. It's as good if not better than my old OP6T was. Anyone else see similar improvements?

If that's true... how good is the beta as a daily driver? lol
The fingerprint sensor infuriates me some times. Like when I need to get photo of something while on a ladder or looking up network documentation at a client site. In those instances, it just doesn't work.
@XNine
It's very stable. Zero issues that I've noticed.

So I took the Beta 2 update and so far, you're right, the FP sensor is much better. Still have to wait and see if it screws me over when I'm trying to get things done at work

It's as it should have been from release. Google needs implement changes in A12 next release.

It really is. I don't understand how the fix hasn't been rolled out to 12. Is it Great fingerprint sensor now? No. But it's MUCH faster and more accurate.
The only issue I've seen so far in 13 is android auto where maps isn't updating until i physically tap on the maps app on my phone, then the head unit updates. Trying to figure that one out now.
Edit: had to allow maps to use my location anytime, not just when using maps, oddly. Seems to have fixed the issue so far...

One can only hope. My fear is that there are some deeper issues that need to be addressed and Google may not want to bother porting the fix to 12.
