Hi,
I just got the new update B330 at Today (this is the official ota, not the beta version). And now sometimes the fingerprint scanner doesn't work when i want to unlock the phone. Sometimes it is working, but... Somebody else recognised this problem? Any idea how to fix it?
For all my opinion is worth, I thought the fingerprint scanner was fast before but since I have upgraded to B330 today I have not had a problem with it. I would go as far to say its possibly a little quicker.

I had this problem on B180 - I deleted the fingerprint, and added it back in, and it was fine.

Thanks for the advice, but unfortunately it doesn't work. I deleted and reinstalled my fingerprints, but the bug is still there.

In this case probably the problem is in my device. By the way i sent an email to the official support with my bugriports and now i just hope the best.
Thanks for the answer.

I don't think so... rollback to previous version and see if scanner is working. If its working then problem is wit software
Hey!
my problem with the fingerprint is cux its slow now when i was in LilliPopp its was so fast but now when im in MM its slow!! anyone have the same problem?
I have it too. Do not worry. Probably because EMUI is a bit slow in response sometimes. Fingerprint is affected and also sometimes "desktop". Yes EMUI has some bugs.
I read that India got B431 that fixes some things, including fingerprint. Not as fast as for EMUI 3.1, but close enough.
Same for me. Sometime work fine and unlock device sometime didn't work. But i found that it reconize the finger because it doesn't vibrate to said finger wrong. I read somewhere that could be a problem with the sleep mode
It's a bit weird, but maybe i fixed it. So i just switched on this option inside of the developer options: Use legacy DHCP client. I just switched on and now it looks like working as well. My theory is the new DHCP client does not fully compatible with the EMUI, and making bugs in the system.
Same issue here : slow fingerprint read.

Now I disabled all animations in developer settings. Now fingerprint scan feels much faster. Maybe placebo maybe real. Try and see if helps you.
Rollback to 180 it's insane to use the fingerprint so slow
I wanna ask, where is the option to use the fingerprint scanner to be a 'back' button? I'm on B330
there is no such thing anymore
Return/Back function with fingerprint
Hi
I also have a problem with the fingerprint but it's only with the "back/return" function...
It's doesn't work and I didn't found the option to activate or unativate it :/
It was so practice.
I have the B330 Android 6.0 :laugh:
Thank you

Hi,
Hopefully I am writing in the correct place about my issue.
I have the Xperia Z2, rooted, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery.
I flashed the Unofficial PAC ROM by "rcstar6696" and it works fine with tons of features, my problem is that the phone would not lock securely.
I tried to use PIN, Pattern, Gesture locks and they all do not function, the phone will still unlock with slide.
I tried to reset the phone, same thing. I looked all over the forums and could not find anything about this with Z2.
My friend owns a Nexus 5 and I rooted and flashed PAC ROM onto his phone and the Pattern lock works like a charm.
Is anyone facing the same issue? Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks.
EDIT: I have flashed the latest version from 20th of September cleanly and still facing the same issue.
EDIT: after a few resets and wipes, I noticed that when installing/uninstalling apps. The lock chosen works for a limited time (Usually 6 hours) and then stops randomly.
I am still trying to identify if it's an app causing this.
EDIT: ISSUE SOLVED !!
I reset the device one more time with a clean boot, then while setting it up, I did not connect to my google account. I skipped most of the steps, then set the lock screen, rebooted, added my google account manually.
and VOILA ! phone securely locked.
I do not know how my google account caused this, but it seems to be the reason at the moment.
The port for Z2 may have some bugs so post your problem in the rom thread and the devloper may reply and explain

I've been using pac rom since its release, I have no issue setting any lockscreen security. Pattern, pin etc all work for me, it has to be either a setting or xposed module causing the issue

Xposed would cause it, or any mods or tweeaks because pac is framework sensitive which means even simple mods can cause huge issues

Yes of course, but I just flashed it cleanly and no apps whatsoever (except GApps & Stock) , and still the issue is the same.
I even did not change any of the ROM built-in settings and still, no secure locking.
Oh and trust me, PAC ROM is amazing (if it wasn't for this issue) , made me hate every minute I spent in CM and TouchWiz (on my old S4) :good:
Did you do a complete wipe? I wiped all partitions including media before installing pac.
And yes pac is excellent and perfectly stable, only issues I have is nav bar dpi seems to reset after every reboot, but if I toggle say screen timeout via quick settings it changed to what it should be and active display reboots my phone but I don't use it anyway

I'm not sure how to do that, however, I managed to solve it.
And I am facing the same with nav bar and the PACperformance app, it just doesn't stick after reboot.
EDIT: actually, I just tried a few reboots, the nav bar seems to be fine to me, I did however change the icons via "Android L Navigation Bar" found in the xposed downloads. Maybe that caused it to "stick"?
as for the active display, I would like to use it, but I am a pixel maniac, and that feature isn't FHD yet I guess, so I am not using it either for the moment.

Thanks Mate, everything is working fine now.
I'm ok with the stock lock screen but is there a good one compatible with the S6's fingerprint scanner
yeah I was also looking for one accepting fingerprint unlock, but haven't found one yet
This one claims it supports fingerprints, but I haven't tested it myself.

doesn't support fingerprints yet... nonetheless, a pretty good lockscreen replacement with a beta channel. Seems like they are still working on the fingerprint stuff as the lockscreen settings make no mention of it yet.

I actually installed it last night after posting the link, to see what it's like. It does have fingerprint support, and it works really well, although it seems a little slower at unlocking than the stock lockscreen at times.
What's slightly annoying is that it doesn't support known locations so even when I'm at home I need to identify myself every time. Saying that, you have the option of using a passcode or pattern unlock too, which is much better than the "backup password" on the stock screen.
Thanks for the replies guys.
How do you get the fingerprint to work? I can't find a setting for it anywhere.

You can use dactyl which costs a small amount of money, or if you know how to (or are motivated enough) you can build it yourself for free from the Github.

How was the dual sim function? Some rom got bug whenever using 2 simcard at the same time. The bug will make the phone not recognized both simcard and wifi also will not working. After remove one sim then the phone can read one sim card. The bug make dual sim phone into single sim :laugh:

It seem i could not get the fingerprint to work with the default camera as a shutter.
Do you somehow get the fingerprint to work with the camera ?

Already tried official crDroid & AICP, both rom give me same result. Not trying for the rest, but assume that I will still be able to use my fp as cam shutter. cmiiw.

depend on your main usage, if camera important for you then simply keep at MM for now due to currently those feature still worse than MM
basically, N ROM combined with custom kernel already stable enough for my usage pattern. Internet, RIL, Video Call, Wifi, some game, even sound output can be a par with miui for now, added with sound mod and you can damaged your hearing easily
but not with camera, sometimes (rare) it will laggy and then error if you switch from main to front cam. focus also really hard to set.
other feature still on progress is live display, with LD on you'll probably get some black screen of death and should reboot it to fix.
for ROM, try aicp since those rom already have nightly build and getting better on daily base.
happy flashing and take care.
Hi guys,
I really hope you guys can find a solution for this. The Computer Share feature under Huawei Share stopped working ever since I updated to EMUI 10.1, I also formatted my phone after the update.
After this, my PC refuses to connect to the device. I even googled for the solution but there aren't any. I even cleared the credentials but still it fails to connect.

Yes. Previous attempt was while I had Google Play Services on my Mate 30 Pro which after 6-7 days stopped working. Then I've reset the phone back to stock and Huawei Share works great. I don't know if the GPS are the reason, but it's the single explanation.
I have a problem with Smart Lock on Pixel 6.
When Trusted Locations or Trusted Devices is activated the fingerprint reader will not work properly from the lock screen.
It does not light up properly and I always have to put my thumb on it twice for it to unlock.
Have been like this since I bought it in November, have hoped that an update will solve it, but apparently not.
Have also googled a lot about the problem but can not find anyone else with the same problem, so do not really know what to do.
Does anyone else have this problem or anyone who has tips on how to solve it?
I have uploaded two videos so you can see my problem.
Smart Lock activated:
Smart Lock disabled:
My advice is to stop using Always On Display. That behavior is what was too annoying for me to bear with.

Can someone try Smart Lock and see if they have the same problem?

I do have the same problem and I suspect that it may be connected to the fact that I've disabled the "forced lift to check phone" via adb before.

When on the lock screen, the phone is already unlocked through Smart Lock or if my fingerprint is asked, it is really fast.
