Hello everyone,
I'm having an issue with a Samsung Pass on my A50 device (A505FN, June security patch).
Whenever I try to verify my fingerprint with Samsung Pass, it says "Couldn't verify fingerprints, Try again later".
This also happened when I was on May update.
I have 3 fingerprints registered, all of them from the same finger.
I also tried removing all of the fingerprints, then going to Samsung Pass, registering only one fingerprint and trying again, but always the same.
Anyone facing the same issue, and is there a solution to this?
Thank you.
I'm having exact same issue on Note 10+
I've used Samsung Pass previously on S10+, perhaps it's trying validate fingerprint data from previous device?

Since rooting my stock ROM on the Tab S 8.4, I can no longer use the fingerprint scanner to authenticate PayPal. I get a successful read on a scan but the PayPal app disagrees!
I tried re-registering my prints and re-installed both the Play Store version and the Samsung App Store version of PayPal but no joy.
Reading up on some of the Galaxy S5 forums, it seems this is an issue there too. But I wondered if anyone else here had found a fix.
Incidentally, the "Password Box" app works fine with fingerprint unlocking, so it seems to be a rooting issue and PayPal.
Fingerprint scanner/Paypal broken
i have the same issue here and tried the fix posted in galaxy s5 forum but was unsuccessful so i contacted paypal. the following day i got reply from paypal and they said that as of this time only samsung galaxy s5 is supported by such feature. i emailed them back and told them that this is is latest tablet from samsung and it has almost the feature with samsung galaxy s5 particularly on the fingerprint scanner and told them that in the settings there is an option to link fingerprint with paypal so this must be consented/approved by them. i got no reply.

That's interesting to know. Maybe there's hope of getting it working with a later update. I will email them myself and post any useful reply from them here. There is no obvious reason why it should not work on the Tab S series.
fail
I also rooted my tab s, and at first ( the first month after rooting) everything was well. Suddenly tonight, I get all of the error messages telling me the usual swipe faster, swipe slower, and now the option has disappeared entirely! My alt password wont accept my password, therefore I cannot get into or access my $600 tab anymore! I have re booted, I dont know what else to do, it isnt giving me any options.
please help!

you may have to consider "Odin 3.09" in the near future.
SOMEtimes "rooting" defeats various features.
Does it help if you use the option to "hide" root from the system? I think SuperSU has this ability.
I cant get into my system to hide anything!
I dirty flashed rom and it fixed my scanner.
Summary: I've got the original Galaxy Gear, and also a Note 4 international (in The Netherlands). The Gear is not rooted. The Note 4 is rooted, but only for Titanium Backup purposes. I've got everything connected and set up and all works properly, except automatic unlocking!
Set-up: I set up my phone to work without locking. Rebooted the phone and the gear. Then I set up automatic unlocking when the gear is near, in the gear manager. It asks me a pattern (twice) and a PIN (twice) and the switch gets "on".
Problem: From now on my phone is always locked, and always asking for a pattern. This is different from my same set-up with an S5, where the phone neatly only requires a swipe when near with my gear (no rhyme intended) and only asks for a pattern when the gear is off or away.
I tried:Reinstalling Gear Manager from scratch. Resetting Gear to factory settings. Clearing all data from Gear software from Titanium. Clearing/deleting all connections in BlueTooth. Reinstalling/geconfiguring Gear Manager, connection, Gear, phone. Disabling all locking on phone. Rebooting both phone and Gear between each step mentoined. Searched the internet/forums for suggestions, nothing found (most people experience the Note NOT locking íf they have any problems at all). Saw somewhere people in forums mentioning needing to put the phone on top of the watch touching it (some proximity issue): I tried that touching it EVERYWHERE on the phone, but this also did nothing. Nothing of this worked, all resulting to the same problem.
Not tried: Complete reflash to factory of phone........not wanting to do that.
Question: Are there any people here with similar issues and maybe (hopefully!) suggestions to fix it? It's really annoying to have to unlock my phone all the time!
Hi,
I'm also having the same problem! Still looking for a fix as well....

Mee three
Which version of the os are you running on the gear? The original or the new tizen version? That might be the issue of you didn't upgrade the watch to the new version that the gear 2 is using.
anyone find a solution yet? I am running the stock android on the gear (don't want to update to tizen - as I like my side loaded apps)
those with the tizen update installed is the auto unlock working for you?
I have also noticed the e-mail notifications are not coming to the gear from the Note 4 either. With my Note II everything worked/works great (running android 4.4.2). The Note 4 running 4.4.4 doesn't , so it's not a problem with the gear.
thanks,

Hello, folks. Just picked up a Tab S4 from Best Buy and I'm having a weird issue. Straight out of the box, software update would not work. When I attempt to update manually, it just sits there and spins on "Registering Device" for several minutes, then briefly displays a "registration failed" message and times out.
I finally managed to update to pie using Samsung Switch and it's still doing it. I already tried resetting settings. I haven't wiped it yet, but it was brand new out of the box and doing this immediately, so I don't see how that would resolve it. It just flat refuses to look for updates.
I suppose Samsung's software registration server could be down right now or something. Has anyone else seen this issue? I'm wondering if I should just return it.

Wipe it. Something is funky. Just do a factory reset and see. Whats the harm? If that doesn't work then go get exchange
Well, I completely wiped it and the issue is still there. It just sits there spinning at "Registering device", then times out after several minutes.
The rest of the tablet works fine, but I can't help but thing this shouldn't be happening at all on a new tablet, especially after I manually updated it to Pie using Samsung Flow. I was hoping that would fix it.
Just checked for ****s and giggles and it was there (SIO).
I've done this update already.
Nothing new at all, just security patch.
FP sensor still not fixed.

Fixed as in what? The sensor is probably as good as it'll get, the A50S and A51 seem to have different hardware, so it works better. Always readd fingerprints after an update, also add 1 fingerprint with both thumbs, so it's more reliable.

Are you using a screen protector? To be honest my FP sensor doesn't have a problem since like the August update or so. And I never had to re-register my fingerprints again since then.
I got the update aswell, props to Samsung that was really quick security update..

Confirmed: battery drain and slower system response after ASL6 update. Hope samsung can fix this in next update
A505FN - Czech Republic
After the last update with the security patch date of February 1, after the first reboot, the screen crashed, including a touch response. I eliminated this by restarting the device but I was struggling with the Internet connection. Whether I was connected via wifi or a SIM card, the screen was disconnected from the Internet and either restarting the card or the whole device helped. After several hours of experiments I found out that the culprit is the application "Blokada", after its removal everything works as it should. I do not know if the problem was caused by "tweaking" Samsung update or some art of Google security policy, in any case, until then a great ad blocking application had to unfortunately have gone from the phone .......

Use AdGuard it has never failed me on non-rooted phones.

Thank you for your answer, of course I installed AdGuard instead of Blokada and everything works. Today I can no longer imagine using a computer or smartphone without blocking ads, there are more and more annoying and spying. However, I was extremely satisfied with Blokada until the February update, unfortunately she had to leave. We will see if the manufacturer of this application responds and will release a new version that will not suffer from this ailment.
Charging issue after ATA1 UPDATE (February)
Is anyone else experiencing this, I swear after the update took it off the charger one last time phone restarted then after that it wouldn't charge anymore. At this point, I'm blaming the forced OTA for the problem meanwhile I've resorted back to my reliable S5. Amazon & Samsung both said that they couldn't RMA the phone because I missed my January 31st window.
haha and you're reporting me and blocking me because of truth.
My phone charges slower after the update. 15w fast charge feels like 10 w, and when I disable fast charge it won't charge and give me prompt something like "use the original samsung adapter or check the cable"
A505GUBS5ATB2 Combination
Hello friends, could anyone tell me if there is a combination rom for this update ? (A505GUBS5ATB2)
Thanks a lot!
Hi everyone,
Recently, I find an issue when using Smart Switch PC to update firmware of my N975U1. Specifically, after I click "update" and click two "Confirm" (or equivalently like "Agree"), the "Software Downloading" window does not pop up and the software acts like it is back to the main screen of the software. I have never rooted my Note10+ and the OTA function on the phone works fine. Further, the pre-download function can download the latest firmware of the phone but the updating window still refuse to pop up.
In addition, I also have a S10+, G975U1, which has no issue when updating its firmware. I have contacted Samsung Support, but they seems to have no idea about this issue temporarily and still trying to figure out solution through the log.
If someone knows how to solve this issue, please let me know. Thank you!
Just an idea... Do you have anti-virus or malware program turned on that could be preventing that pop-up from appearing? If so, maybe temporarily turn it off.

Thank you for good thoughts, but I think it is irrelevant because I have tried on multiple PC/laptops. On all of them, my S10+ works fine without any issues, but when I plugged in Note10+, the firmware downloading\updating window is not ignited at all (I mean literally on all devices....). Other than firmware update, other functions of Smart Switch PC, e.g. Backup, Restoration, Sync, works well on both S10+ and Note10+. Therefore, I have compeletely no idea why the "Updating" window does not pop up when I plugged in Note10+ and whether it is a bug on the phone or on the Smart Switch PC or what else. (BTW, I have already done a factory reset on Note10+)
So... if someone knows how to fix, please let me know. Thanks!
