put a tempered glass on the screen, now as soon as i pick up the device the fingerprint icon on the screen is shown in decent grey, not animated, but always this dark grey barely to see.
didnt notice that before, does glass on the screen affect the display/built in fingerprint sensor that easy?
global ROM without the ability to diasbale fingerprint sensor, btw do not want to disabel or even change the ROM)
Hello.
My guess is that the issue comes from the tempered glass itself.
I'm with my second one and no issue at all with FP whatever the ROM i used (global, havoc and now crdroid)
well then for sure it is the kind of glass on it
removed the fingerprints temporary so no icon on movement and face unlock until the rollback firmware with function to disable icon will be rolled out again stable
It always does it... at least always have on mine. (official global rom AND developer xiaomi.eu also)
I don't use any screen protector.

I'm having a problem where in low-light areas, my screen turns off a second after I turn it on. The only way I can get it to stay on is by plugging the phone in or unplugging it if it's already plugged in. It seems like there's an issue with the light sensor / proximity sensor that helps keep the device off when it's in your pocket. I'd like to fix, disable, or remove this feature. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it? I've encountered it before with the lightflow app where the solution was to remove lightflow, but this is built in which makes it more difficult. Fyi My phone is rooted.
No suggestions for a fix, sorry. I saw behavior like this (screen turning off) when I put mine in an arm band case with clear plastic covering the whole front of the phone. I assume the proximity sensor thought the phone was in a pocket, etc.
The only thing I can think of to simply learn more about the problem is to install CPU-Z and look in the Sensors section to see what the LGE Proximity sensor is reading.
A screen protector that covers the sensors can also cause this.
I get this in low light, too. I have to point it at a light source to get it to turn on. Very aggravating. The longer I use my G4, the more flaws I find.
Do you guys have a tempered glass screen protector on? I have this too, and confirmed this is what it's from. When I had one that didn't directly cover the sensor I had zero issue. It may also be that the sensor isn't that great or polls on too slow of an interval.

Interesting. Does this happen in no-light situations as well? Or is there is a "dead zone" between normal light, and pitch dark?
I tried mine in an almost-fully-dark scenario, in a closet with the door almost fully closed. It turned on normally using both the power button, and double-tapping the screen. Mine is a Verizon model, 610B software.
Thanks @RedOCtobyr for pointing out it could be the screen protector

Yes! I have the tempered glass screen protector. I'm going to remove it now. Besides this whole light sensor issue, I absolutely hate this thing. Compared to a plastic screen protector, I can barely move/drag my finger across the screen because it grips my finger so much. I also feel like it messes up the touch sensitivity so that a lot of lighter touches don't register. Whether that's true or not, the excessive grip this thing has on my fingers and this whole sensor issue is reason enough to tear this piece of crap off.
...
Yep. Light sensor now works in low-light situations but detects when it's being blocked in close proximity. It feels a lot better to touch the screen now as well. Anybody know of a good plastic screen protector to order off Amazon?

I love my tempered glass. Just not ones that cover that silly sensor. I can't say for sure but I feel my G3 glass also covered it without this issue, or at least from what I remember.

how did you over come that issue with the armband. i am having the same problem right now thanks.
Follow steps below to re-calibrate proximity sensor(must with the glass protector is installed and which is sensor covered up)
1. TYPE "277634#*#" in phone dialer. Hidden Menu screen will show up.*
2. Select "Device Test"->"MT", it will show "system will be restarted", then choose OK.*
3. After reboot, GENESIS MiniOS 3.1 screen will show up, press "individual item+power" while power button is pressed.*
4. Next, find "sensor test", enter it(do not block the proximity sensor), the proximity sensor will be automatically calibrated. Then block proximity sensor two times to exit.*
5. Find "Back to the MainList", enter.*
6. Press "Normal boot+power" while power butten is pressed to reboot system, done.
Now the problem should be solved.

Thank you for this. Although on Marshmallow the Hidden menu code has changed. I found this on reddit which helped.
User: Tramagust (I can't link because I have not made enough posts yet )
"It is *#546368#*MODELNUMBER#
So for the international version it is *#546368#*815#
For the Dual sim version it is *#546368#*818#
I assume for the NA version it is *#546368#*811#"
I will see if it makes a difference. Cheers

Yes that code is for lollipop.it is different as you said for marshamallow.
Hi,
no idea if i just got nervous and did not figure out earlier or it bugs indeed.)
Thing is i put a tempered glass on the screen and all went fine for two days.
As the glas wasnt exactly medium placed i wanted to correct the position, got a dusk between tempered glass and screen, no more wipes at home.
So i used a wipe for glasses to wipe the dusk corn from temeperd glass.
After wiping with that now as soon as i just pick up the device display shows the fingerprint symbol "greyed out/dark mode", note as bright as when using it, tapping on, but in a decent grey/anthrazit.
Wake up on lift was disabled from the beginning, double tap to wake is on as it was, turning off makes no differnce.
So did it "wake up" that way since first day and i just didnt notice it nervous like now or did i mess it up with the wrong wipe on the tempered surface?(
Edit:
think i messed it up, as soon as i hit the power button to lock the device finger rint symbol gets brighter waiting for input.
You gus know a way to cleen the display isded side of tempered glass without interfering then maybe?
Hi everyone, I have a pixel 6 pro. Yesterday I fitted a screen protector liquid glass. I have problem now with a finger print scanner. Finger print scanner don't recognize finger print. Some one have this issue ?
I deleted old 4 seved finger prints and create new. Didn't help

I have no experience with the specific brand you used, all I can say is that I use a Moccolo UV Glass protector without any issues - I even had no need to activate higher screen sensitivity ....
This would be the first I'd try in your case - you find this under the display settings
If this still doesn't work at all I fear there must be something either wrong with the protector itself or with the installation (maybe some bubbles in the area of the FP reader)....

I have a mowei glass screen protector that works perfectly with the fingerprint scanner. I don't have any experience with your liquid one.

Not another FPR thread?? How many do you need to figure this out? You think you can find the answer in one of these of a dozen threads?
Worst FPR ever put on a phone
Ok this is beyond a joke now. Why in the hell would these morons remove face unlock only to add the absolute worst fingerprint reader I've ever dealt with on any phone I've ever owned. I never thought I'd consider going back to pin unlock...

Does anyone know the brand of the original screen protector film of IQOO 9 pro? The original film protector that came with the phone is starting to degrade and eventually I need to replace it.

I got these a few days ago from ebay. Delivered in Greece quite fast. 3 pieces for about 10 euros. Pretty much identical to the original one, easy to apply if you are careful. The first of the three was damaged as a part of my "learning to apply" curve but the second one I nailed it. Still one spare.

What is the screen like without the factory installed protective film? I find it makes the screen look a bit dull and hazy in bright lighting conditions and it picks up every bit of dust and fingerprint marks. I took the factory installed protective film off my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, (I keep it in a wallet case so it has lots of protection) and it made the screen come alive - smooth and resistant to fingerprints, smudges, lint, etc. I'm thinking about doing that on the Vivo as well but wondered if anyone else had done so.
Yes it is

Yes it'more alive and smooth etc but with 2 kids around couldn't take the risk more than 3-4 days. Even the tiniest scratch or mark would seriously affect the reselling price.
Cautionary Note:
I removed the factory installed protective film and thought the appearance and feel of the screen was much improved. However when I rebooted my phone it didn't want to unlock using my fingerprints. I tried three or four times before I was successful. It had always unlocked instantly with a quick touch of my fingerprint before removing the protective film. So I thought: 'well, I'll just enroll a new fingerprint since the screen is now more sensitive', but when I tried to add a new fingerprint it wouldn't let me. I keep getting a message saying: 'apply official Vivo protective film to add fingerprint'. Ironically I can unlock my phone with facial recognition and Google Pay still works without the need to confirm by fingerprint and my banking app (which does require a fingerprint to unlock) unlocks instantly with my stored original fingerprint. So I disabled face unlocking and tried again to unlock with my stored original fingerprint and again it took four attempts. I'm glad I didn't delete the original stored fingerprint as I apparently can't add a fingerprint now without the original protective film.

I had no protective film for about 4-5 days and didn't face any similar problems. I think that's the only con about Chinese phones : Seems that somehow they don't have a "quality consistency" for all their devices. Seems that it's more likely to come across with a device that has a "problem" than with other manufacturers. For example , for Samsung you will read about "poor Exynos performance" or "overheating devices with SN 888" etc but with Chinese manufacturers you will read about 15 different problems from 15 different users, each of them having just one or two that other users don't have and not having the rest that other users complain about. I mean the "apply official Vivo protective film to add fingerprint" message is not due to a hardware or OS identified problem that "IQOO 9 PRO has and we know it", otherwise I should have had the same message. Seems that more or less Chinese phones have their own "personality" and this imho has to do with quality controls. (Just my 5 cents).
Hi, I have replaced screen on galaxy a70, with original from another phone, completelly functional screen, exact same, but i can't add fingerprint, i can add it to like 20% without any problem, but after that it says fingerprint cannot be recognized. I have tried with piece of protective glass over the screen and that works perfectlly. One thing that i noticed is that the phone before screen replacement had a protective glass, but phone from I picked the screen didn't. Is the sensor focused little bit more far due to that glass? I did factory reset but that did not helped.
