Hi All,
I didn't found any relevant thread and hence opening a new.
Is anyone observing a delay in finger sensor. Sometimes I have observed a delay of approx 1-2 sec once I touch the sensor n it unlocks my mobile. Kindly suggest. I contacted the customer service and they are suggesting to factory reset the mobile.
Thanks
Vivek

Nope, this only happens when either the finger is wet or the sensor is a bit wet.

It happens to me also for the first time when i am unlocking the mobile like after 5mins or more. if i locking mobile then within minute when i am unlocking it is working proper, I don't know the reason. Should the factory reset solve this issue?

I haven't reset the mobile yet so I'm not sure if it will help or not.. 1 gentlemen says in this thread it happens if finger or the sensor is wet.. Will check n update if that is the exact issue..

If your fingers are a bit sweaty, sensor will have issue unlocking the phone.

Have you tried cleaning the figureprint scanner? That usually helps
Try to delete your enrolled fingerprints and re-enroll again.

Whether this honor 8 pro has capacitive finger print sensor? because ordinary finger print sensor can be hacked by any other thin film which has our finger print sample. thats y i want to know whether this is capacitive or not?

Optical sensors aren't used in smartphones.
Ultrasonic sensors are still in prototype devices.

Never heard of this everywhere. So I'll assume FP sensors in Android devices don't have this problem.

so far, huawei/ honor fingerprint sensors are one of the fastest and more reliable one (in the sense it can detect and not tell you wrong fingerprint).
the only time when i get this issue of not being able to detect my fingerprint is when my finger is wet (it does not have to be really wet or anything)... usually wipe with dry cloth/ tissue and try again, and it will work.

Hello everyone I have a question on your device Xiaomi 5s. When wet hands fingerprint function very well. But when your hands are dry, fingerprint function very slowly. Everyone has encountered a similar case?
Yes, most people has this issue. It's the scanners issue I believe

I have very dry skin and when having failed reads I just lick my finger and it unlocks immediately.

I did try to search this and couldn't find anything so if I missed it I'm sorry but here goes.... When I make a call on my new pixel 2 xl the screen goes black like it should when I get the phone to my face but when I'm done with the call and pull it away it does not wake back up. I have to toggle the power button and use the finger print sensor to wake the screen back up. Anyone run into this?
do you have a screen protector on it ?
Yes I have the Verizon branded tempered glass on it

A lot of times the early made screen protectors for new phones are made wrong and forget the cut out for proximity sensor. Remember, it's a proximity, not light so even though glass is see through a proximity sensor detects anything, even glass.
It could also be lined up wrong.

Yes. It's happened several random times so I'm not sure what's wrong yet. For me I noticed that the ambient display just randomly went out. I now think it's because the proximity sensor triggered it. Similarly, I have an app called Screebl which turns off when the proximity sensor is triggered. I noticed that app also turned off. I hope it's a software problem not a hardware issue. I'm running the pixel 2 xl on Oreo 8.1 beta.
No screen protector here.. noticed this earlier today. Running the 8.1 beta..

Yeah, I'm not using a screen protector either. Hopefully it's just the beta. I seached the beta bug reports and haven't seen anything reported on this yet.

Another thing I noticed with the beta is it slowed the finger print sensor quite a bit... So maybe there's something in the beta that affects the sensors some. Going to have to report some bugs...
I am on stock 8.0.0 here and am having the same issue. I did some searching and tried the "fixes" that involved turning off ambient display, restarting, etc., nothing worked. I have a screen protector on, but I tried the troubleshooting steps both with and without it on. I even tried the "Proximity Sensor Reset/Repair" app with no success.
Having the problem as well. Thank God it's a software issue
I also have an amfilm screen protector v2 on, as well as a Spigen Herringbone Neo-hybrid case.
No fingerprint sensor errors.

Fixed. Wiped down the proximity sensor with a dry toothbrush.
Need to get in touch with amfilm tomorrow and tell them their prox widow is too small.

Unfortunately for me, it wasn't a software issue. I removed the screen protector and wiped the phone, still no luck. Replacement is coming tomorrow.

never mind was for the touch screen issues not the proximity sensor
Same problem here. Started immediately with my first phone call after the 8.1 OTA finished installing, so clearly a change was made in 8.1 to the prox sensor sensitivity. This is with Google's "official" (and pretty lousy) Power Support screen protector
Everything back to normal with protector removed. C'mon, Google, geez.
Best part is, their touch screen fix didn't mix anything and now I have proximity sensor issues

I'm having issues as well BUT making calls via my watch or when receiving calls. If I make the call manually from the phone the sensor works fine.

8.1 update has caused my proximity sensor to lag like crazy, takes 1.5seconds some times before it gives me the screen to hang up. I think the issue may be linked to the general issue of unlock screen slowness
Hi everyone
I set up with 3 fingers the fingerprint sensor and weirdly both my sisters can unlock the phone with their own fingers. I removed and set up again but kinda the same... Anyone can relate?
Don't touch the button with oily fingers.
I have the same problem.
Try to cover the entire sensor with your finger, for me work's.

You mean when adding a new print or when trying to unlock?

Both. Delete all 3 fingerprint profiles, clean the button and your fingers with some alcohol and then try to recreate the profiles again. It should fix the problem.

Maybe try reflashing the software, might fix the problem.
Actually I think it is just the quality of the sensor which is kinda crappy: I unlocked successfully my friend's a3 2017 with the finger the same way my sister did for my a5... It is not a big deal but Samsung should maybe work a little more on its fingerprint sensor.
Hello, fellow Nokia fans,
I have been using the Nokia 6.1 as my daily phone for the past 2 months, and it has all been a great phone except for the fact that the fingerprint sensor on this phone sucks a lot. Every time I try to unlock my phone using my index fingers it says something like partial fingerprint detected, try again.
It gets really frustrating at this point, the phone that I used prior to this was a Galaxy S6 which had a front facing fingerprint sensor, that made things much easier. Am I doing something wrong? Is the same issue bothering anyone else? Kindly help me in mitigating this problem.
TIA, Peace.
You can calibrate the same finger twice for more information for the sensor so it registers it more accurately.
I registered my fingerprint like I would register my fingerprint by habit. Now it works perfectly, and I have no complaints whatsoever.
Those in the US using fingerprints to unlock your phone (any device) be aware federal courts have ruled you CAN be compelled to unlock your phone with your fingerprint. You CANNOT be compelled to give up a password. The difference is something you are vs. something you know. Sure it is a pain to use a password/PIN, but think of all the personal information you carry with you in your phone.

you also have problem with fingerprint before you do register again? mine is only working when putting fingertip at center, unlike other phones like xiaomi that unlock fast and easy with any part of finger touching the sensor, I don't know if its the sensor smaller or it require more accurate scanning than other phones, it works but sometime hard to unlock when in rush or when finger is sweaty
In fact, this is the worst fingerprint sensor i have tried.
I have Nexus 6P, Huawei Mate 10 Pro and P10 with me
Nokia 6.1 fingerprint sensor keep showing partial detected when hand sweat, dirty or even normal case

Yup, this does help out slightly
I did register 3 type of single finger, but still unrecognized in some case
Even the slightest amout of sweat and the fingerprint sensor fails. Thus I had to set up trusted face to make the unlocking process less painful. Unlocking this phone using the fingerprint is pain in the ass. I think the sensor area is too small that it fails to detect the parts of our fingerprints or it's not calibrated well.
I don' t mean to sound overly negative but the fingerprint sensor is next to useless unless you hands are completely dry and not sweaty whatsoever. The success rate is so low for me that I don't use fingerprint sensor on the 6.1 and went back to using a password - which is at least works consistently
i am using nokia 6.1 plus from past 1 year. the fingerprint sensor also works properly but the option of adding fingerprint suddenly gone right after updating the security update.. how to get it back? please help...

After using protective glass, the finger reader is unusable. Does anyone have the same problem?
I am using screen guard and it has a hole at finger print scanner. It is annoying and seller told it is for finger print scanner to work. If your screen protector doesn't have hole at scanning area, it may not work.
I don't use finger print scanner so don't know if the feature is working really with or without protection guard.
What about pre applied one? Which came on applied with phone.

After applying we have to re do the fingerprint addition process, if your tempered glass supports it.
I got tempered glass applied from the store coated me around 400, but the in display fingerprint scanner works.

Same here, it's mostly just a case of leaving your finger in the right place for long enough rather than getting impatient with it.

Take the update, it helped alot. Enable touch sensitivity to the highest level. And set your most common fingerprint up two or three times.

Yep , but there are only 3 slots for fingerprints in A70 - don't know if it is a bug or feature - so, no space for too many fingerprints ?
