Hello,
I've got a bug while i'm trying to unlock my phone.
So when I touche the fingerprint with my hand (not my finger) the phone vibrate to say it doesn't recognize.
But after that action, I can't unlock anymore with the FP.
I've to press power then i can unlock via FP.
It's an issue or ??
thanks

For me is working normally. Try cleaning the sensor
It's clear.
But when the FP is wrong one time.
I need to try again a lot of time before it unlock

i setup pattern instead of pin numbers.
the problem is anyway i swype through patterns, my phone unlocks.
pls help.
I got this after flashing firmware when I already had a pattern set up. Just go through the setup for the pattern again and it should persist.

thank you
all sorted
do you experience a bad recognition, too? sometimes when I try to enter my pattern it recognizes my finger not from the beginning but in the middle of the movement. kind of annoying sometimes to swipe the pattern again and again.
That mostly happens when in a hurry. Doing it slowly and calmly works 100% but doing it in a hurry (while driving, ...) sometimes doesn't work right.
Hello everybody
I want to know how fingerprint unlocking works with that phone. I mean if, when the screen is off, you have to press the button and then swipe the finger over the sensor, or you can only touch the sensor, or you have to swipe it, or you have to turn the screen on and then touch the sensor, etc etc.
Other question, is it possible to use always the fingerprint? Or there are situations in which you have to use the pattern/pin/password in any case? (I mean after rebooting the system or when you turn the screen off from an app, for example)
Thank you
Best regards

You need to unlock manually using the pattern/alternativ unlocking method after each reboot.
To unlock with fingerprint you simple have to push the power button so the device wakes up and leave your finger on the power button for like a second to recognize your fingerprint. After that you are in the home/main screen

Thank you for your reply
Excluding at reboot, is there other cases in which you have to insert pin/pattern for unlocking instead of simple fingerprint?
How accurate is fingerprint identification? I mean, you have only to keep the finger on the power button in 100% cases or sometimes fingerprint is not recognized or recognized slowly or you have to take the finger off and then touch the sensor again, or swipe the finger on it and so on?
(I'm sorry for these questions but I'm trying to decide between z5c and xc)

If your fingers are really sweaty or "dirty" you have to touch the sensor again/a few times (moving the finger doesnt help, you have to retouch it). But most of the times (98%?) it works on first touch.

Okok, thank you. I'm trying to compare z5c and xc, and on many reviews online I found that the fingerprint scanner is more fast, responsive and accurate on xc than z5c.
And for the other specs, do you recommend me z5c or xc?
I hate accidentally unlocking the phone just by grabbing it -
Is there a way to unlock it with my fingerprint, but only AFTER i press the power button and the screen lights up?:fingers-crossed:
Not that I know of.
But are you sure you are unlocking it with the fingerprint scanner? Because you must be holding it touch, every time, a very specific and small part of the screen to unlock it that often accidentally.
Are you sure that it isn't the face unlock that is doing that?

I don't have face unlock set up. I know it's a small & specific area but it's happened enough times for me to post this topic.
I don't know much about Android yet so excuse me if this is silly, but are there some sort of launchers that can change that?
Disable AOD services.
AOD services? could you explain, please?
Hello
I m wondering whether it is possible to unlock with any finger that is not registered. I know it is against the idea of fingerprint security. But i want this to use fingerprint censor just for unlocking the device without pressing power button and swiping.. I am already using only swipe action to unlock locksceeen which is sometimes annoying for it has a an issue..
Thanks..

Hello,
I have a ZF9 for a few days and I can't get used to the fingerprint on the side. I often unlock it by mistake when I put it in my pocket.
You don't have a problem with that?
I didn't have a problem with other devices with a fingerprint on the side, I set to physically press it. It cannot be set on ZF9.
I'm unhappy about it

I have this problem to, its very gentleness
Same problem until found that you can unlock only by pressing the button unlock
and not only touch it
you goes to settings -> security & lock screen -> Fingerprint -> screen off unlock
and you have two options press or touch and press only
choose "press only"
well thank you!

I feel really dumb right now for not searching in there ... Thank you so much. Like most I had trouble with unintentional unlocks.
after this annoying problem I start looking all other settings for solution
Oh, this is so smart! I had the issue of my phone going weird places when I pull it out of my pocket sometimes, even with pocket mode enabled, and I didn't realize what caused it... Now I found the problem along with a solution in this thread. Thanks
Wooh, thanks, i thought it was an issue on my zf9
