Hey everyone. I've noticed that when I've left the phone with the screen closed for like 2 mins or so and after that if I try to unlock with the finger print sensor it doesn't unlock. I need to turn on the screen using the lock button and then the sensor works perfectly. So I'm thinking the sensor goes on a standby mode to save battery. I don't think there's an issue with the sensor since it's snappy as ever but I'm just wondering. Could you guys test this in your phones and let me know if this is the same for everyone ?
I haven't faced anything like this..You should provide some more info like which rom u r using...like i am using latest xiaomi.eu beta rom...
Seemed like some sort of glitch. A restart fixed it. I'm on stock 7.0 btw.

Hi everyone,
I am experiencing funny accelerometer issue with autorotation ON.
When I keep my phone straight it flips screen to the left. When I rotate the phone it flips again. Only the home screen works good.
The same is with the games - if I am playing every thing goes to the left because it thinks that the phone is flipped.
I do not know if this could be the issu with the spirit rom but on CM11 there is the same issue and with this rom's there are no calibration tools.
It looks like the start position for the accelerometer is flipped left.
When I test accelerometer with moving the phone up and down it looks like working left and right like the axies being changed.
Do you have any ideas, how could I approach this issue to fix it?
It is just not possible to use autorotation now.
Best regards to you all.
Have the same problem
Yea, it depends on which ROM you installed. Some work some don't. Been looking around, but not much activity for MEGA. Looks like everybody is loosing interest for this phone. I just got mine and love it, have the same problem with screen and camera. Has to do with what it thinks north is.
I am rooted, and currently runny no-name ROM but rom doesnt seem to matter. My proximity senser is giving me issues. Testing it showed that if i cover it it will recognize it but then is stuck not sensing me removing it. I dont have any case or screen glass that is covering it. Anybody else having this issue?
Yes I have had this issue since day 1. Stock not rooted

Have had the same issue since day one, 11/10/15. Not rooted. Aside from an ok battery life, this is the only problem I have with the LGV10.
i have this problem also.. its happening more and more when hanging up a call. I have to press the back button to get the screen back on.

sometimes the indisplay Fingerprint sensor stops working at all.
The display wont recognize any touch and stays black.
If i push the Power button it starts working again.
This happens sporadically, 1 -3x a day
Did anyone had the same Problem?
Any suggestions?
Thanks for reading....
No one?

I haven't seen this problem. I use face unlock along with it and it usually recognizes my face before I can even scan it.
When the screen is black, you can put your finger on the display and some glowing circle Appears. This does not appear to me at all. The screen just stays Black.
Thx for the information.

Maybe your fingerprints got erased somehow? Does your phone display a fingerpring icon on the screen a second after you turn the screen off?

Yes the second I turn if off it shows a fingerprint sensor. Just after a while it won't toggle the sensor if I touch the display. It's like the fingerprint sensor is deactivated. The second I turn the display on manually it appears again.
Hello! I've got the p20 pro and now I'm testing mate 20 pro. Sometimes I'm not able to unlock the mate with my fingerprints at all. Same finger. The p20 works perfect, just touch and unlock. Mate sometimes I have to touch it 3-4 times before it unlocks , sometimes it doesn't unlock at all? Is that normal? The display was exchanged already because of this issue.
I believe you guys are not the only one. This on screen finger print is not reliable. I guess because they are new and will improve over time. Personally I just use face recognition than finger print. They are a lot more faster and accurate to unlock.
I know it's an old thread but it's happening to my M20Pro right now! It's awful! The screen is protected by a tempered glass made by Spigen (maybe this glass has issues?). I reconfigured the fingerprint and I touched almost 50 times until the phone captured the fingerprint! What's wrong with that sensor?!
I had problems with glass protector, if you can get plastic film it is fine, glass you will have problems....this was my finding
Possible brightness/proximity sensor issue

If you still have this phone and problem: I have a P30 Pro, and/but the reason I write here is because our phones share the fingerprint technology, and I didn't find anyone mentioning this problem regarding P30 Pro. So:
I have the same problem - seemingly sporadically the fingerprint sensor (or screen) wont react until I press the power button. Then I noticed that when the brightness/proximity sensor (located near the top right on the P30 Pro, and next (right) to the upper speaker on Mate 20 Pro) was covered, the screen would get unresponsive. I guess this is by design, to not accidently let your phone come to life in your pocket. The problem was/is that the proximity (?) sensor is way too sensitive - any obstruction at about 2 cm (0.8") above the sensor(s) will trigger this behaviour. I also think it can be triggered under other circumstances; I had som weird fingerprint/screen behaviour in a store with a high and very dark ceiling, but I have to test this again, so don't take my word for it.
Anyway - if anyone is having sporadic problems - see if this could be a reason.
Edit: Well, sometimes my screen is just totally unresponsive even without sensors blocked, so ... I noticed it a couple of times after digging my phone out of my pocket, suggesting it could still have something to do with the sensors turning the screen (functions) off. I'll try to see if I can make it behave the same way in other scenarios.
I have also been experiencing similar problems on my mate 20 pro, But mine is more of an accuracy problem. sometimes its on point and registers instantly. and other times it just doesnt at all.
However i have noticed that in extremely bright weather i have more issues, fingerprint doesnt read at all, and face ID is also doesn't. My finger print issues have started only after EMUI 10.1, so i suspect that it could possibly be a software related issue
Hello friends
I wanted to ask something about proximity sensor in Mate 20 Pro. Are your sensors always on like my device.
There is a proximity sensor on front side of mate 20 pro. You cant see that sensors working with naked eye but you can see with another camera. When screen off and device is locked I cant see a difference on state of this sensor its not engaged. When I press power button and screen turned on I see red dot on top of screen (on notch) and it is always engaged while I using phone.
This is the question.
Isnt it consumpting battery and is it normal?
Everything is controlled from proximity sensor is turned of in settings.
What do you think about this is it a bug or is it a normal thing

This is happening to my Mate 20 Pro too. But I am not surprised neither worried as this was hapenning to my Galaxy S7 and my LG Optimus 4x.
It's perfectly Normal, minimal battery usage and prevents unnecessary screen activations in your pocket or while on a call, which results in ear touches.

Hi i finally found the solution and made a video of it on youtube. You gotta de-bloat the battery and performance from the manage app. check the video I've gone indepth regarding it.
Anyone else having fingerprint reader issues or tips?
I'm using screen protector that comes with it out of the box and on the android version that includes the September security patch.
Haven't tried face unlock as with the pop up camera that seems just weird

What do you mean by "issues"?
I seem to be having a hard time to get it to work every time. The thumbs seem to be the best. I just deleted and redid the setup on my 3 fingers I have set up...
Same here: regular 7T pro, 10.0.3 and with the screenprotector still on. I regularly see the fingerprint animation at least 3 times, sometimes it doesn't work at all. Very annoying because it unlocking the phone is now very slow.
It seems to help if you press hard first and then lift your finger.
The 7t Pro has a bit difficult to read a new fingerprint, but after a few successful readings the phone will learn the fingerprint better to finally get fast and accurate.

I have same problem. I must set fingerprint again then unlocking works normally for few days.
Am I the only one that finds it so annoying when it blinds you at night ?
Mine also got better it seems, meaning less not unlocks. It's just different than a button that I'm used to.
Regarding the light at night, I believe it needs it to read your fingerprint. You can disable the ring... Maybe that helps (if you can find out)
