Has anyone managed to fix the fingerprint sensor?
After unlocking the bootloader, the fingerprint sensor stopped working.
HELP!
It works fine for me and most of the other people here who unlocked their bootloaders. Try relocking i guess

Hi,
did you by any chance unlock your bootloader? I just unlocked my bootloader this morning (which also includes a factory reset) an now I cannot use my fingerprint any longer for any task (unlock phone, login into paypal etc.) The registration of the fingerprint seems to work but it is not recognised afterwards.
Update 30.05.2016:
Got my fingerprint sensor working again. The reason for not recognizing my fingerprints was the option "allow OEM unlock" enabled in the developer options. After disabling this option unlocking the phone via fingerprint is working again.
i didnt do unlcok oem .
Hi,
I was on MM and the fingerprint sensor worked some of the time and it wasn't reliable. I decided to use FlashTool to flash the same software to have a nice clean install, however, after I did that the fingerprint sensor stopped working. Every time I try to add a fingerprint, it says put my finger on the sensor and wait for the vibration, but it never worked.
Is there something I have to tick in FlashTool? I am using the right FTF.
Edit: In Service Test > Fingerprint Sensor, it appears to be fine. Also, DRM keys are intact if that matters. I was worried I wiped too many things when I flashed the FTF.
I've also tried adding fingerprints in Safe Mode as well as flashing FTF from a different region (but for the device). I am still unable to add fingerprints
Did you unlock bootloader? I had the same issue afterwards. Fortunately got a new one now, but I'm not unlocking for the moment.

I haven't unlocked the bootloader so my DRM keys and stuff are still here
I have just been able to restore my phone from a hardbrick, but the fingerprint is not recognizing, I downloaded a program to test the sensor and says that my device has no fingerprint, any idea what to do?
I already changed the ROM, and have already downgraded to test another ROM
I would like to unlock the bootloader on my phone, but I read that the "Find my phone" function and the fingerprint sensor won't work after unlocking the bootloader.
Can someone confirm or debunk this?
Thanks!
Yes. It works.
Both find my device and fingerprint work after unlock
