POLL: Do you use the fingerprint sensor now? - HTC One Max

Just wondering how many people actually use the fingerprint sensor on a daily basis...
I used it occasionally before I was unlocked and s-off, but since that happened, I dont care to bother getting it to work again, since, IMO, it was placed in a bad spot, and I always ended up smearing my camera lens when trying to use it. HTC should either move it or dump it, but thats food for another thread..
Post your feelings about it here!

I am using fingerprint in a daily basis.
I simply register 3 fingers, all of them to unlock screen.
When swiping those fingers (while registering), i place my palm 'not' inline vertically to the phone.
My palm is in casual position. Just like when casually holding the phone, which of fingers that are casually touch the scanner.
For me I swipe them a bit diagonally.
Once registered, It works flawlessly be it when phone in vertical or horizontal position.
Be it you swipe it upward or downward or even a bit right/left ward.

I use to use it all the time however the fact the hardware is not used beyond the Security screen bothers me. I.E. password/Fingerprint authorizations change authorizations. It should be programmed to work outside of the security screen lock. I.E. buy something on Play Store it ask for a password you swipe. Like Apple did with touch ID.

I don't use it as I don't really like the position and the usability a lot. On my old phone, Atrix 4G I used it only in the beginning as well, never really had a need for it.

Use it everyhour.. thats my method of unlock.. quite better than typing a pin for me.

yes! I even removed my corporate exchange account in order to gain access to the scanner. part of the rules in using company exchange is they disable all of those options.
the chicks dig it too!!!! :highfive:

I love to use the Fingerprint. But i really don't like the position and when Finger lock security active. It alway disable the lockscreen pulldown nofitication. So.. .i disable this. Sadly

Wait... This thing has a fingerprint sensor???

Yes, yes, it has. Though quite a few people say it's not working that well.

Yea, I was using before unlock and root and thinking about stocking phone back up - not much support for this phone

what kind of support are you looking for that you cant find?

I was gonna say eho actually uses it and does it really protect your phone or is it a waste of space and a worthless feature

even so, looks like most folks don't use it for one reason or the other..
for me, if it was somewhere else, and actually could be used for some real security, I might be more inclined to use it, but, for what it is now, I see no need to bother with it..

But what better place do you think would be possible? i am wondering how a phone which does not have a physical home button can use a sensor in the front?!

Looking at poll, most of the population not using the fingerprint sensor, i am guessing it is going to be acceptable if the devs port ROM's from the One to the MAX without the fingerprint sensor and i am sure that will be easy and could be achieved by a beginner dev

that would be fantastic; there are so many great roms for the one, and I agree, 95% of us could care less about a functional fingerprint sensor, if we could have several more roms to choose from..

Had no clue this has a poll. Must not be viewable mobile which likely most of us viewing this forum are.

[POLL] Crooked screen vs. hardware rev

Let's see if HTC has corrected the crooked screen issue with later hardware versions.
To see if you have a crooked screen: turn the display on and have enough ambient light so you can see the blackout on the top layer of glass. Compare the edge of the lit LCD underneath the blackout. Is the LCD "square" with the blackout or does the LCD look rotated slightly beneath it?
To check your hardware rev, go to Menu, Settings, About Phone, Hardware Information, and look at the hardware rev at the top.
Here's the thread that started this.

It's not a thread. It's a poll. And it's probably the only way for us to find out if and when HTC fixes the crooked screen issue so that people who have the problem bad enough know which hardware revs it affects.
Mike
I can see why you'd make a poll for this, but I don't think they've produced multiple hardware revisions yet?

I guess you got a good one then. My first one had a good screen but i replaced it because of the green pics. Hopefully the next one I get will be good if not Ill go to something else for a little while and come back when its good again.
Mine is definitely crooked, unless there is some illusion some of us see and some of use don't We just need cm7 to fix this! (being facetious)
Id be very interested if those that say their screen is perfect could take a close pic of the phone with the notification bar pulled down and post it up here.
Itd help those of us that see it on our own compare to what you guys say is straight on yours.

GPS seems to be working while driving

Hi, a member of a Dutch forum has tested his Prime's GPS while driving. He said the GPS was locked within 30 seconds and was locked the complete time.

Would be nice to get more of these reports since I am guessing tethering your phone to the prime would produce the same results wouldn't it?
Its a start i suppose, but nothing to brag about (90 ft accuracy) . With my year old DInc,in under a minute i have 10 sats and accurate to 20ft. And thats indoors by a window.

You shouldn't. You can save a piece of Maps, I'm not sure how, but it should be possible so you can stay offline while testing.
Imho you should. Google maps be damned, damn 3G hipster navigator.
Go oldschool with offline maps, safest way to go.
Why would you buy a tablet for gps navigation in your car? My phone has very good GPS and has never failed me. But if I would depend on it on a daily basis i would get a device that was made exactly for that.
The GPS in the Prime is nice to have and i'm sure it will work for most tasks like adding location to a foto and stuff like that. Or telling me we're I am while watching a map in a city.
But yeah maybe i'm strange^^ I really dont think this is a big issue and i'd like to add that my phone (DesireHD) had similar problems when i first bought it. Now there has been several radio updates and now i always get a lock in 15secs and it almost never drops unless there is a tunnel or something.
Everyone has the right to their own opinion but if you're not buying the prime because of this why did you even want it in the first place?
People always assume you have a phone with GPS in it.. call me old fashioned, but I dont.
I was looking forward to having something decent to navigate with, but Asus dropped the ball on their promises.
And I dont need it on a daily basis, that's exactly why I was looking forward to the GPS on this pad.
Its nice to have but I wouldn't buy an expensive device designed specifically for that task for it.
Basically when Asus told us GPS is useless for navigating,
it felt like they were telling me to buy a tank if I want to offroad because your new ATV cant.

You can save, at least on Nexus S. The option in settings is something like "Maps caching", enable it and then "drive" around the screen with your finger, after that those downloaded maps will be available offline
yeah use google maps to make sure it's charting your path correctly, and not thinking you're driving through trees and houses

Change the view of your Recents Apps List

I would like to think I'm pretty well informed. I browse the forums and did my homework before getting my G3, but yesterday I stumbled upon an article (I think it was "7 Things You Need to Know About Your G3") that showed a little trick that I hadn't seen mentioned the whole time I've been reading about the phone. When your Recents Panel is open if you pinch out slightly it will change from the small cluttered screens (I think it's 3x3) to a more zoomed in usable list (2x2) and if you pinch out even more it will go to the single column view!
I figured if I hadn't realized this yet there was bound to be a few others who didn't get the memo as well! (kind of like the hidden plastic tie-fighter on the power/volume buttons) Or if I WAS the only one then disregard my ignorance and have a nice day! :silly:

I've had the V30 since launch and am looking hard at the V60. I've never owned a Samsung, but also considering the S20.
I currently have a Note9 as my main device and a Mate 10 Pro as a back up. This is because I really like using a desktop mode on my device. Now LG have implemented a version they come into my sights as a viable option. And the V60 looks to be an awesome option. The second screen looks genuinely useful as well.
I'm considering the V60 as my next option. I'm on a Moto Z Play with a cracked screen so I've been looking for something to upgrade to for quite some time. The V60 checks all the boxes I need:
good sized battery
good screen
good connectivity
good audio
good features
I probably won't use the dual screen accessory often. If they price the V60 right, it will be an instant buy for me.
Depends on whether I can remap the STUPID assistant button or not. If I cannot remap it, then absolutely NO! Turning it off is not good enough. If it is there I want it to do something, but I never use these useless assistants at all!
I'm extremely tempted.. after ordering my s20 Ultra 3 weeks ago and coupled by the fact that I am still awaiting it to ship I'm about to cancel my order and await for this to officially drop.

I'll probably think about getting one because I'm not satisfied with my LG G8 battery life. It's kinda bad. Probably a bad unit, I know most people are getting decent battery life.
Although the V60 will probably be too big for me. Owned a 6.4" phone in the past and it was big, but 6.8"? Damn lol

Did a live chat with LG tech support yesterday to ask whether the STUPID dedicated Google Assistant button could be remapped to anything more useful...The answer was NO. So I told the tech to forward my decision to those who make such decisions that they lost a sale. I hate useless features that cannot be disabled, uninstalled, or especially for a hardware button...cannot be remapped to something else. Their loss...many more fish in the sea! Looking at the new Sony Xperia 1 Mark 2. Meh
Ordered mine first thing this morning. Glad I did because AT&T is now out of stock already lol. Can't wait to come back to LG after having an iPhone for 2 years. I still use my V20 for things my iPhone can't do. I shouldn't need a supplementary phone if I paid $1k.
Lol I got mine

I've found that the tech support people are often very limited in the understanding of what can and can't be done on devices they support. I've ordered one, and I'll let you know what I can find out.

I look forward to hearing from you on the remapping issue. I have done a great deal of searching for answers to my question with several different LG devices that have the button incorporated into the hardware and the answer is always a big fat NO to LG allowing a remap of the Google Assistant button. I have read about a few work around's or 3rd party apps that partially work, and then there are those who say the work around's do NOT work for them...so it appears to be hit-and-miss. Some have surmised that it is Google that doesn't allow this to take place. If that is so then Google must be paying a tidy sum to LG and other OEM's that include the button in their devices. This to me is the epitome of arrogance to think that people want their useless crap forced on them when paying major money for a cell phone. I will be sure to spend my money elsewhere. For LG to agree to a $$$$ contract with Google for something like this will not bale them out of bankruptcy should this phone fail...in fact...it may lead directly to the very failure they're trying to avoid. So sad!

Will you keep the phone in the dual screen housing 24/7? If not, what are you looking at for cases?
Unlocked carrier available yet?
LG V60 ATT US order
Just ordered mine, ATT in the US. So how do we get the Dual Case Offer? I found it finally on the LG site. Have to enter your email and they send a link to send the proof of purchase too, have to wait until you get the phone.
