fingerprint scanner - Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps

is there a way of making the fingerprint scanner work just by having your thumb on the scanner instead of having to swipe it on the S5? If the hardware doesnt support that, id not be surprised, but if its a software thing, that would be an awesome mod to have!!

I was wondering the same thing. Would be pretty sweet if it's possible.

Ok... I'll bite. First we need a working CM, than someone who want to work on MIUI for the s2, it will take time in any case. Don't ask for ETA's, just enjoy your phone without MIUI for now. It took almost a year for the SGS1 and it is still not 100% stable, expect something similar (perhaps a bit better/faster) for this phone.
Next time use search, I think I have already seen a thread like this coming by before.

How do I activate face unlock

How do I set up face unlock guys?

I don't mean to be rude, and I'll answer your question, but you really need to search the forums before posting a question. Secondly, there is a specific forum to post questions to, so try to do that next time.
The face unlock feature is not active in ICS on the TFP right now. We know that a portion of it is installed into the system, but there are no controls available at this time.
face unlock is not that great.
Face unlock is not secure.

you have to be good looking to activate it, if it doesn't work, then you didn't make the cut.
sorry.

Realizing that its not secure, it doesnt work as awesome as some would like, and it does not come turned on by default...
Has anyone found a way to make face unlock work? Yes, there are lots of threads asking, no i didnt find any answers on HOW to make it work. If i missed it please forgive me.
there is currently no way to make it work.

i did say currently, there's no CM9 port for us until the bootloader is unlocked.
There was a poster here who found the apk in our system - data/data/ & need root - and tried to install it but it fails to take. So it has some other dependency that blocks it.

Yep, I even took the galaxy nexus apk + all the dependent files in /data/lib and put them on the prime, but nothing happens.

Yea, Apple 5s is more costlier than any Android higher version, whether android has better feature than that..:fingers-crossed:

Sorry but it's not possible. It's embedded into the framework.

Most likely won't happen. OEMs don't release sources for their special features. All proprietary.

Hot pixels on rear camera

Hi I just found out quite disappointing thing, that I have a lot of hot pixels on rear camera. They are best visible when shooting at 1080p something dark (as in attached picture), but they sometimes appear on photos too. And they are persistent not just shot noise :/. Does anyone have the same problem or am I the only one? Any idea if that could be fixed without sending it to repair?
Is there any marks on back glass?
Use deo and smooth cloth to clean the glass once and see.
Sadly cleaning does not help.

This is clearly a hardware problem. Better have it replaced.

I hoped that there could be a way, because it is actually software problem as every camera has these, but they are just mapped out.
So unroot, relock and send it for repair/replacement.

Regardless being a software problem, you should still opt for replacement.

No. I found out about pixels after the return window. So as it still was under the warranty I sent it to service and they sent it back, that they were not able to replicate the issue and that warranty is void because bootloader has been unlocked. But since that I do not see the dead pixels, so we will see.
