Hello, the fingerprint sensor has a bug on a lot of P2. On mine, it worked for 5 months straight and now it's 5 months that it works just like 1 week every 5.
Rebooting, in my case, has a 25% chance of making it work again.

hey guys so 4ive been on omni rom a few months already and It was perfect, then I wanted to encrypt my phone ,still no problem. The other day I tried to install lollipop (cyanogenmod) the installation went fine, the only not working was the wifi, I couldn't connect to any wifi, so I asked on the forum but It looked like I was the only one with the issue then somebody asked me if the problem was just with the lollipop rom or if it was on every others roms (4.4.4 etc) and at the time I thought it was, why ? because every time I flashed the lollipop rom and realized the wifi wasn't working I was just restoring a backup I made so of course the wifi was working after that because it was a restoration, and Today I tried to installed an another 4.4.4 with full wipe and realized that the wifi wasn't working either (even with full wipe and whatnot)
so my question is : what the hell is going on haha ? I have no idea.. my only lead is because my phone is encrypted but the thing is I can't decrypt it, why? because when i boot i the twrp (last version) i enter my password to decrypt the partition and it works, then when i go in wipe>format data , twrp tells me "format data will wipe all ur apps, backups [...] AND REMOVES ENCRYPTION[..] " so perfect ! exactly what I need to remove the encryption BUT when i type my password on the keyboard , well the keyboard doesn't work, the only keys working are "s" "e" and maybe "y" that's it. So what's going here too ?
thanks .
TL; DR: my wifi doesn't works in any other rom beside the backup one, and i can't remove the encryption of my phone because twrp 's keyboard doesn't work.
Yo guys,
I flashed the resurrection remix ROM for my zenfone 2 (Z00A) last month but its been a big pain in the a$$. Firstly,I get a lot of bootloops. Secondly, the phone sometimes shows no range on cellular service even though I should be getting it (I'm sure as heck cuz I used to get it in my house). Due to that i restart my phone and encounter the bootloops until finally I get it to work somehow. Sometimes I would even have to WIPE everything (DATA,System,Dalvic cache,etc excluding Internal and External Data) and flash the ROM,g apps , SuperSU again. These problems were encountered in 5.6.5. I recently upgraded the ROM to 5.6.6 by downloading and flashing the ROM but the same problems along with new ones :crying: came up. I usually charge my phone in the night and turn the charge off for use immediately after I wake up. The following problem was not there in 5.6.5 but in 5.6.6 the phone restarts itself in the night (probably when I'm asleep) and it just gets stuck in bootloop and is extremely hot and my hand starts to hurt probably from the radiation or something but then when I just hold on to the power button, turn it off and back on again, it works like normal and has 100% charge. Please suggest a good ROM (other than cyanogenmod as that too has the problems except the bootloop from 5.6.5) if you guys can't figure out the problem.
P.S. Yes I've tried fixing permissions

Hello people
I got my Nexus 5x last month .
I have updated it to latest security patch level and it starts freezing randomly
Freezes are observed when i try to unlock my device through fingerprint sensor OR when there are to much messages to load through social apps
This issue is bugging me a lot
Because of this I can't set my fingerprint on this device
I can use almost everything perfectly other than fingerprint unlock
Google support suggested that "try wiping cache partition "
But since I updated my system after that .. cache partition must be wiped at that time .. isn't it ? But issue still persists
Is there any solution ?
Sorry if there are any technical mistakes(I'm a newbie ) and grammatical mistakes(I'm still learning English )
Please help me with this issue
try a hard factory reset in recovery, you will lose your personal data but you won't lose your system including latest patch.
btw: your English is very good!

After restarting my Mi5s the fingerprint scanner doesn't work anymore. The same issue appears when I put the phone off and I put it on a day later (I like to put the phone off while sleeping).
I know that the first time after restarting the fingerprint doesn't work by Android default. However, it also doesn't work thereafter. When I remove the fingerprints in settings and add new ones, it works again. Does anyone have the same issue and a possible solution?
Not having this issue. Which ROM version do you have installed?
I use the xiaomi.eu stable rom.
Ah ok, custom ROM then. Please ask in xiaomi.eu forum, they might know more.

I had same problem here after I encrypted my device with 'encrypt device using lock screen'. When I switched encryption off the problem was solved. So seems a software problem. I am working with most recent stable Global Rom (8.0.3.0). Hope it will be solved in next release. China stable was released a few days ago.
had that problem with miui.eu , it was an outdated version of supersu and twrp, updated them and problem solved.
So i have come across a strange problem.
I was using AEX 6.6 on my z2 for almost 15 days now and wanted to switch to AOSIP , so i boot in twrp try flashing and get ERROR 7 (very strange , because i had flashed that before) , so i try to revert back to AEX and still get ERROR 7 (it says failed to flash system img or something like that), ended up QFILing ZUI 2.5.
After booting that up the IMEI was missing and sim card was not detected (thought maybe that was the reason for ERROR7 , but turns out it wasn't) ,so i look around threads and finally fix it .
Now IMEI is back and sim cards working as expected , so i flash TWRP and still end up with ERROR 7 , so QPST again ,this time ZUI 3.5 , repeatedthe same process again and still ERROR 7.
Tried downloading zui again and trying everything again , still ERROR 7 .
Tried old TWRPs and Nougat and still the same thing .
I am not sure what's causing it because ZUI is working totally fine.
Tried experimenting with several roms , v2f and f2v , still the same .
Tried flashing zui 1.9 , all the way to zui 3.5.
Tried unlocking bootloader on all zui versions and trying flashing Roms.
Still the same Error 7 .
Anyone has any idea what the hell is wrong with my device ?
I don't understand how zui works totally fine ,if it is somehow a hardware problem .
BTW i have taken my device apart several times , but i don't think that's the cause .
All help would be really appreciated
Most probably vender to factory or vice versa error. It happens when you flash different treble/non treble custom roms. I see you tried most of the stuff butt I was stuck having exactly same error for a week and through hit and trial i somehow fixed it, happened a while back almost a year ago.
Use all in one tool on pc, go to edl mode format everything. EVERYTHING! don't relock, instead reflash twrp by Kuber it's hosted on android file host than reboot and set up twrp settings and reboot again format cache and data etc (since there is no os) it should have no problems. If there are no errors. You are good to go.
