hi, I had for many time noble 3.1 ultra debloat, and time ago with this rom I used the fingerprint locking method successfully. I disabled it, and used the pattern method, because I had to rent my phone for a while, and stayed with that until battery blow up. So I changed the battery and the connector flat, because my 3.5mm jack didn't work anymore, and made a clean flash of new noble 5.1. During the initial configuration, I wanted to set the fingerprint locking method, but after setting the backup pattern, userconfiguration crashed, and was not able to set the fingerprint (even learning my finger, it crashed before start reading my finger). Even if I try to set an other locking method, it crash after chosing the pattern, pin or password. I tought was a rom problem, so tried many roms, even stock 6.0, but no luck, same problem (6.0 said that he can't access to the fingerprint sensor, but if I try an other locking method, same crash as before with nougat). How can I solve this problem?
sorry for my very bad english!
thank you

Hi,
I have problem with fingerprint reader on my elephone p9000. I am using latest softer version and i have this problem from the begining.
So when i try to add new fingerprint it recognize my finger every fifth time, and after i set my fingerprint and lock phone it recognize and unlock phone first few time, and after that i seems like he forget fingerprint and i cannot use it.
Is this system or hardware problem?
After update i factory reset my phone but this does not help.
I find youtube video with the same problem
If you have any sugestion please.
I have the same problem too. I think you need to press the finger well for getting a good result.
I hope that this problem have a solution.

I had loads of problems with the fingerprint sensor.. I was scanning itself (no finger on the sensor, vibrates and returns "too many attempts), working only when the screen is on, not working at all, working 1/10 times I tried, etc...
My problems were all software related (some were registering technique related). It's really not possible that two phones that you have ordered had the same problem.
I have managed to fix mine by combining Resurrection Remix and DarkSense Kernel 1.2.0, now it works 100% of the time. (1.1.0 rendered the fingerprint sensor useless). XPosed and ROM Toolbox seemed to break the fingerprint sensor as well.
I know it might sound silly, but try a different fingerprint registering technique. What I do is I lightly touch the sensor with the centre of my fingertip for the first time, lift the finger up, rotate it by ~5 degrees and lightly touch it again. Do that until most of the finger tip is registered. I'm only saying this because I've seen people touching and "smearing" the fingerprint sensor, expecting it to work. Imagine it's a camera, give it pictures of your fingerprint.
I don't know if this is useful, but after a few months of trial-and-error I've managed to find what was wrong with mine.
I just installed the AEROM V5 and now it works about 90% of the time, which is more than my Nexus 5X did.
I have a problem with my May update Oreo install on a Xiaomi MIA1. I did a clean install of the OS and installed all apps and data back to the phone.
I have set up the fingerprint scanner and pattern. I now find that every time I unlock with the fingerprint scanner, The first press wakes the screen and shows the lock screen. The second fingerprint scan brings up a screen with the pattern and the words "Pattern Required After Device Restarts." as if I have just rebooted the phone. Although I have not rebooted the phone.
I know that I get asked to add my pattern (or PIN if that is set) the first unlock after reboot. It is like Android continually thinks I have just rebooted the phone when I have not.
I have noticed if I delete all lock functions, then reset the Pattern or Pin and the fingerprint, fingerprint does unlock the phone on the first few attempts and then goes back to not locking it without changing any settings.
I set up a new user, set up the fingerprint and pattern and the fingerprint also worked for a few times, then stopped working.
I do not have a third party launcher or lock screen loaded.
The fingerprint unlock was working fine before I clean installed and I think was initially working for a day or so after install.
I am aware that you must enter your pattern or PIN on rebooot... This is not what I am talking about.
Under Settings > Security and Location > Device Admin Apps only Find My Device and Outlook Device Policy is listed. Both apps are unticked.
I have no third party launcher or locking app loaded.
Can someone offer some guidance on how to fix this issue? Surely I am not the only person who has seen this issue. All other searches on the net refer to 3rd party launchers and that is not the issue I have.
Well it seems I am the only person on the web that has ever had this issue. I did a full hard reset and the issue is gone.

No it's just that oem is not very popular here and those that do develop for them would never add their finger prints to it.
Please help, my Huawei requies after succesfull face recognition unlock still slide to unlock with finger, even if I checked in system settings Direct unlock feature under security option. Week ago everything was OK, now direct unlock not working. Any ideas? Thank You!!!
It does that when the face unlock and fingerprint unlock conflict with each other. It happens to me sometimes.
Just try not to use both at the same time by accident. I set my face unlock to only unlock when I'm looking irectly at it.
Thank You, bazanime, disabling fingerprint unlock solved my problem. But it is still strange to me, untill now (few days ago) both unlocking methods worked together...
Thanx again for help
This happen to me when i have finger print snd face unlock activate, and try to unlock with finger print and fail. In that case always recognise mi face but I have to swipe up to unlock 100%, dont know why either

You're welcome, Happy to help. Though I wouldn't turn off fingerprint unlock because it still good, just in case your face is not recognised. Just use the face mostly.

Try the following solutions to resolve the issue:
go to your Settings > Reset > Reset all settings . This will reset all settings, no data or documents will be deleted. Reboot your phone into recovery mode (press and hold the Power and Volume Up buttons simultaneously ) and use it to delete cache partitions (select Wipe cache partition) . Finally select Reboot system now.
Good Luck
Try turning off do not distrurb
It only does that to me when I lift my phone and it doesn't initially unlock with my face, so I mash my thumb onto the screen only to get blinded by the icon showing around the edges of my thumb putting out more lumens than Tsar Bomba, which triggers an epilectic fit of apoplectic rage during which I smash the phone repeatedly into my face and attempt to put either of my thumbs *through* my phone over and over again. That's the only time I see that.
This was hapening to me too !
My mate 20 pro always worked with facial recognition every time but recently worked intermittently, I tried all the usual reset and wipe cache partition, then I thought that the only thing I had changed recently was that smart lock and trusted place was on as I noticed that away from home facial recognition would work but at home it would say 'smart lock recognition successful slide to unlock' even though the phone was set to direct unlock - changed it, now problem it solved so maybe check this.
Update 9.1 solve this issue .. now it is much faster
I already updated to 9.1 but problem still existed, smart lock and turn off trusted place was definitely my problem.
The earlier mentioned "smart lock at trusted place" will ruin the face unlock.
NOTE: Even if the smart lock is OFF, it will interfere if you have some location saved and you are trying to use the face unlock in there. So you need to delete the "trusted place" from the smart location.
Simply turning off Bluetooth worked for me
Hi,
I've read this thread and disabled battery optimisation for "com.samsung.android.biometrics.app.setting"* on my Note 10+ and Tab S6 (Wifi).
On both devices the fingerprint scanner is faster :good:
... and it seems to fix recurrent unlock problems with my Tab S6 too
* on some devices it's named "com.samsung.android.biometric"
Important:
it's not known yet if this might have any negative side effects (as battery drain or burning out the fingerprint sensor).
I also did it. But it doesn't make the fingerprint scanner faultless...
Hi, am I the only one having a problem with the fingerprint reader after upgrading to Android 10? ?
I have probably tried everything. Factory reset and clear cache partiotion do not help. The problem returns randomly. The reader stops working, and when I try to get to the settings I have the message: "Finger print sensor calibration needed " or "finger print sensor doesn't respond, try to reboot your device . If the problem persists, contact support "
I checked everywhere and there is no such thing as calibrating the fingerprint reader. Technical support also couldn't help me with the problem, they only recommended to send the tablet for service. ?
The problem has never appeared before the update so I bet that the problem is new software.
Any advice what else I could try?
The reader, when it starts to work, works much better than before the update, unfortunately more and more often it does not work at all.
The strangest thing is that sometimes it starts working after a regular restart. I have no idea what to think about it.
Something similar... It sometimes works like a charm. It sometimes stops working, but no message and no way to use it in order to activate the tab. In that case I have to use an alternative method to. I suppose a fix could be released after this update to Android 10...
solved
Hi there,
I've solved this issue. I have tab s6 4-5 month and I couldn't even register the fingerprint. today I tried again and I found out that you have to touch the scanner very gently, do not press firmly. so I could register 3 fingerprints and it is working. even with unlocking if you press harder it won't work you have to touch slightly and it is working. still it is not reliable as other scanners but it works. i'm providing the video, you can see when I touch gently it is working, but If I press harder it won't register.

So I have a LG ThinQ 8 that belongs to a friend. They said they reset it trying to fix some freezing issue. When it came back up he set up a finger print then decided to try a pattern. He can't get the pattern to work. If it asks for his fingerprint he enters it and its fine but it immediately takes him to the pattern. Is this a LG pattern addon or something he has downloaded? I can't even power off the phone without the pattern. Any good suggestions on fixing this?
