So... I'm now at AOSP Extended right now, the issue apparently the fingerprint doesn't recognize my right-hand finger, but the left-hand one does. I tried changing firmware but no luck, I haven't tried to revert to stock. Any ideas?

See post #2 for solution.
Thanks XDA

Fix :-
Screen lock > Register unrecognized finger
and add patern/pin
then go to settings
and don't delete the fingerprints
but remove the screen lock itself
and then add screen lock and register fingerprint
Thanks to @JackSparrow17

Hi guys!
I really love this phone, but I have a really, really, really annoying bug. I have only 2 days with this phone (MM updated since the first day). When I try to unlock with my finger it works most of the time, but in some occasions it ask me for the knock code or the pin directly, giving me no chance to use my fingerprint to unlock the phone. This is really annoying because I want to use the fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone and it does not let me. Does anyone have the same problem with the V10? Any ideas for a possible solution? Thanks a lot!

We have this problem too and assume you are using a third party launcher (Nova, Google, etc). Switch back to LG stock launcher and it fixes the problem. Think it has something to do with the lockscreen permission changes from Lollipop to Marshmallow.

I'm actually using Nova. I will switch back to LG Stock Launcher (uggly, by the way), and I'll tell you if it worked or not for me. I'm thinking on the same about te permissions in MM. There is no way to upgrade permissions from the settings or something like that to keep using a third party launcher?
Thanks a lot for the help!

Did you ever find a resolution to this. It's pretty annoying but i'm not willing to give up Nova

I ran with LG's launcher for the past couple of weeks and since the recent beta updates to Nova shows no sign of a solution, I've reverted back to Nova and just switched to pattern unlock for the time being.
You know, even using nova, you can double tap the notification bar to turn off, and still use the fingerprint to unlock.

^ Incase anyone of you missed it, the finger print scanner works if you double tap the notification on Nova Launcher to lock the screen.
hi guys... i too have issue with finger print... my problem on MM is that i cannot even set up a finger print.. its like hard ware issue.. but i do hope its a software issue...

Try to factory reset, or change the unlock method to a different one, and then go back to fingerprint.
already did.factory reset by lg bridge..hmmmm
. i do hope its only a s/w issue. huhuhu
may due to mainboard problem
i also met this problem.
after restart, restore or refresh kdz, nothing changed...
my model is LG V10 H961N

Speak for yourself. :laugh:
I'm on MM on my H960A AND I'm using Nova Launcher since the first day. Never had this issue. I only had a problem once after unlocking the bootloader. You have to enable "OEM unlock" in the developer settings prior to unlocking the bootloader and I did not disable that option again afterwards. The fingerprint sensor did not work at all with this setting enabled. You can register new fingerprints but unlock does not work.
Since I disabled this option I have no issues with Nova and fingerprint. Should you have unlocked your bootloader as well make sure you disable "OEM unlock" again.
I'm on MM and using Nova prime but I don't have any problems with the Fingerscanner!

Hi!
I have this phone for 4 days and i had the same problem like you,
I use to lock my screen with third party applications like:
Greenify or Screen Off and Lock
And for this i have the same problem like you,
If you had the third party application for locking your phone, you can uninstall them or lock your screen by double top or power button.
Good Lock!

Try this...
I've had this problem also. It seems to have started after a security update from T-Mobile.
Try this fix and let me know how it works for you:
Follow these steps:
1)Goto settings -> fingerprint & security -> fingerprints -> then delete all fingerprints
2)Then goto apps -> switch to show system apps(im using 6.0) -> find com.lge.fingerprints then remove data and cache memory.
3)Goto storage & usb -> clear cached data
4) Then restart your V10
5) After that, add fingerprints in fingerprint lock then it detects your finger.
If it doesn’t detect your finger, repeat the steps.

Glad I could help.
You may have to repeat this process as sometimes, I've heard, the problem reoccurs.
Device: Redmi Note 4Global version (Snapdragon 625, 64GB / 4GB)
I have the strangest issue with my fingerprint scanner, in addition to some other problems.
Started In RR rom latest build.
My main issue:
The phone will not recognise my left index finger(that i used to unlock with regularly ). But works perfectly fine for all my other fingers
When I try unlock with my left index finger, it says "notrecognised", I then have to use my pin to get in again
But if I use any other finger that is registered, it unlocks. NOT ONLYTHIS, but if I use my left finger even once, I have to use my pin. But if I geta "not recognised" for any of my other registered fingers, I can thenretry with the same finger, and it unlocks. It seems like my left index finger always forces the phone to resort to my backup unlock method (pin, pattern,password), but my other registered fingers seem to have unlimited tries.
It doesn't make sense. If it was a software issue, it would not be consistent across the different ROMs
If it was an issue with my finger, nothing has changed since yesterday. I haven't got any cuts, or markings.
If it was a hardware issue, it shouldn't recognise any of my fingers.
What I've tried:
1. Removing the finger, and re-adding it
2. Washing my hands
3. Cleaning my fingerprint sensor
4. Taking my case off
5. Using Pattern +fingerprint unlock
6. Wiping cache,system, dalvik cache, internal storage, data, and reinstalling the ROM
7. Flashing another custom ROM (AOSP Extended)
8. Going back to my original ROM (Resurrection remix)
9. Flashing back to stock using MiFlash (latest MIUI version)
10. Going back to RR
11. Going back to AOSPextended

Try this -
Screen lock > register your unrecognised finger
and add patern/pin
then go to settings
and don't delete the fingerprints
but remove the screen lock itself
and then add screen lock and register fingerprint
This is working, thanks to @JackSparrow17

Remove all your registered fingerprints.
Remove all your pin,pattern..etc.
Make sure you can unlock the phone with just a swipe.
Now re -register your fingerprint.
This worked for me.

Does it work?
I set up Fingerprint Quick Actions app on my old Axon 7 so that when I pressed the fingerprint reader, it shut off the screen. Now, when I try to set up the same system on the S9+, I can set the screen to turn off, but when using the fingerprint reader to wake the phone up afterwards, I am forced to do a pin-unlock instead of biometric.
Does anyone know a fix or is this not something that can be done anymore in Oreo?
Same problem here...all third party lock screen app is not supported in this sense.
use Nova Launcher and Jews the problem mentioned above will not. Double tap gesture to turn off the screen

it wont work as said by OP, both widget type and double tap screen lock/off will make fingerprint unusable since it will ask for a pin. really wanted this too, hope we can find a solution.

Actually, Nova DOES work, because it doesn't actually lock the screen. It resets the screen timeout to a very short value, turns the screen off, and then resets both after the device locks on it's own (or you take some action). I use it all the time, but it only works from a Nova home screen, not from anywhere else.

For a similar outcome I am using the 'screenoff' app and it's working for me (Snapdragon SM-G965U1 running Pie)
Because I haven't done enough posts I can't post the link but search for github and jsalatas and ScreenOff and you'll find it
Powers off screen with app button instead of fingerprint sensor and then allows fingerprint opening.

I posted that a year ago. Things may have changed since then.
Hello, can anyone guide me how to fix it without rooting? So double tap to wake is not working after a factory reset, Double tap to sleep on lock screen works tho. I did a factory reset because of heavy ghost touch issues.
Probably a settings issue.
Or simple load the app Double tap, it's likely is better than the stock app.

Double Tap is a near perfect app. I use instead of the Samsung one as it has more and better features to dial it in. No downside, stable.
