finger print after new update recieved today

The fingerprint scanner after update is significantly fast and accurate
You just have to give a good touch to screen and it will unlock
The fact that we are getting update for our devices makes the consumer really confident with the product
The camera should get better soon as well
If u guys see lock screen for fraction of seconds just try clearing up recent app tray for instant fix or just use ur phone normally this bug will disappear
And if it still doesnt work just setup wallpaper again.
This bug appears when u manually try to bring up lock screen by power button or by constant tap on fingerprint scanner
Just clear the recent app tray
The update really is remarkable.
Very happy
Very good jod Samsung team

No update yet in EU so far. The firmware from India seems to have received a handful of updates already but the official firmware update list doesn't list EU firmware so far.

No Update
Still no update for Indonesia

Yesterday loaded ASC7 firmware. It is not much better. Overal FP performance is a disaster.

Sunday updated A505FN to March update (Serbia, SEE) and nothing magnificent better with FP sensor then before.
Just for a "piece of a hair" maybe.

Maybe a dirty fix but do you have both Face unlock and FP unlock enabled? If yes, I recommend deleting all previous FPs, remove face unlock (delete the registered face), then add the fingerprints again. I did the same and FP unlock feels much faster (even with a tempered glass screen protector). All the best!

Hmm.
No Face recognition. Just FP...
Will try to clean system.
Tnx

The catch is that this is unstable: I mean 3 times in the row FP works fine and next few times total disaster

Same here! All of a sudden my screen goes crazy, as if three fingers are touching the screen at the same time. Quick fix: restart the phone.
I waited reporting the issue to see if more people have it, or it is just my phone.
Hmmm... now that I think about it, I better wait rooting the phone and tripping Knox in case of fixing this problem under warranty...

Same problem on my phone. I have a glass screen protector, I thought maybe it's because of the screen protector. Sometimes locking and unlocking the phone also solves it for me.

I also have a glass screen protector, but I experienced the problem also without protection, since I applied the screen protector a day later.
Locking and unlocking the phone seems to "solve" it as well indeed.
Hmmm... seems we got an issue here, Samsung!
I have also addressed this topic to the online shop I bought the phone.

Ghost touches did happen to me during the first three or four days after purchase. Now however, they are completely gone.

I've had this happen to me two times in three days on two different A70's (one time on each phone). Most likely software issue.

yes me too, i can't even type fast bcs it will trigger a ghost touch between the two alphabets i'm trying to type, feels like an old man for typing slowly lol

Give it a few days. Restart your device every other day and press the malfunctioning spots on the display a little harder. It worked for me.

4) then select run graphics test*
5)then do system reboot
give this a try it worked for me an let me know if it's works for you or not.

I'm also having the same issue. Tried the 1st solution. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a70/help/ghost-touch-t3927693/post79538651#post79538651). However my phone didnt restart automatically so I restarted manually. I'll update the results. Thanks a lot.

Got a software update this morning which seems to have fixed it. At least I got to type this comment faster :laugh:

guys, I don't know if it's a "ghost touch", but if I get my finger really close to the display it acts as if I touched it on that spot - but I don't feel like I've touched the screen at all... is it really sensitive or is this the ghost touch issue?

Mate 20 X Unresponsive Screen

Hello guys!
I have bought a brand new Mate 20 X just 3 days ago!
I noticed that some times I click something and it wont do anything or do it with delay and sometimes I click on something and it vibrates like it did it but nothing happened (like home button for example).
Does anyone else face this issue? do you know how to fix it?
Have a great day!

Nothing here, I also use the gestures so never use the home button. Is it specific apps that cause issues or just in general?

Yep, it happens to me quite frequently. I don't think it has anything to do with the screen though. Do you have a nano memory card? Are you stock? What apps have you installed? What browser do you use? Mine started doing it after the 192 update (I think) and has been doing it ever since whether I'm on stock or on a custom rom. You'll tap a program and see that it selected but sometimes it takes like five to ten seconds to open.

sometimes when I touch with 2 fingers to zoom (for example on a document) it just stays on zoom mode even when I touch with 1 finger (so when I try to move around it will change the size like a 2 fingers gesture).
scrolling is way slower than any other phone I tested, has anyone else noticed that?

Take screen protector off and clean it might be smudged . Maybe you could try glove mode it's more sensitive in settings

tried both, didnt help.

I thought I was the only one with this issue.
After flashing the Resurrection Remix rom I have never encountered this problem.
I'll be going back to stock soon so I'll see if the problem still exists.

Mine works perfectly. Even with the protective film scratched. Worked perfectly with my previous screen protector, a tempered glass type. I have the chinese EVR-TL00 midnight blue model. Everything stock, no root.

I also have this problem
You're not alone, this is happening to me as well on the EVR-L29. In my experience it is most noticeable when tap typing and a letter I tapped on does not register. Also, once in a while when I tap on an app to open it nothing happens and I'll have to tap it again for it to open. It's a mild annoyance for me, but not to the point of ruining the experience. I'm hoping a future software update addresses this, unless it's hardware related. I love the phone, but this is probably my biggest gripe outside of the possibility of no future upgrades in Huawei's spat with the US.

Lock Screen unlocking problem guys, screen is unresponsive for 3 seconds.

after each lock when i turn the screen on with double tap or power button screen is unresponsive for good 3 seconds. This started happening after the latest camera fix update. When if i use aod and use the fingerprint through the aod this doesnt happen. tried reboot and factory reset with fresh install (no backups) tried safe mode. Same thing happens.
S20 plus exynos.

Yup happening to me too (s20+ exynos). For me the time of unresponsiveness is around 1-2 seconds. Happened after the latest update.

Yes, have been facing the same issue since "ATCH" update.

Yeah has been driving me nuts. Same problem.

I'm surprised this isn't gaining more traction? Can't be the only few experiencing this!?

Glad to see it's not only my device. Waiting for fix.

I have similar situation

I'ne noticed the same after the last update.

There is an app called samsung member where you can send error reports. I have already done it, its currently under review. I suggest everyone affected to do it.

Seems like a pertaining issue for Note 10 Users too. They found a trick and seems it works better now. Can you try this and let me know if it works better?
turn off the battery optimized for apps: com.samsung.android.biometric.
Go to Settings>Apps>Select "Special Access" from three dot menu>Optimise Battery Usage>select All from drop down menu>Search for "com.samsung.android.biometric"> Turn it off and Restart.

I did this already and while it feels like fingerprint is faster, unfortunately this is a screen issue. You see if the screen is off and i put the finger in the correct spot it always scans my finger without any lag. The issue is occurs when -
a) I have unlocked the phone using above way, then the screen becomes unresponsive right after unlocking.
b) The screen is off and i either press the power button or double tap to wake, then the screen will be unresponsive and its during this time the fingerprint scanner doesn't scan (because the scanner doesn't know it needs to scan since the touch is unresponsive)
so TL;DR its not a FP scanner issue.

I am quiet sure Samsung is already addressing this issue for next update.

Question Touch Screen Problem!

hello everyone,
I just bought z fold 3 a few days ago,
after hours of working with I found that sometimes the touch screen(inner display) doesn't respond,
for example, some words don't type when I am typing quickly with the keyboard (just sometimes)
factory data reset didn't help.
has anyone run into the same problem? may be resolved with future updates?

Is it only happening to apps connected to the internet ie is it a connection issue?
The internet's been goofed up in some areas the last few days. Try toggling the airplane mode off/on.
Keep power management disabled for now.
Does it happen in safe mode?
Find the factory test settings for the touch display, test (and calibrate if needed/possible).
If you can't resolve it, return it. Otherwise eyeball every square inch of it like a hawk...

I tested the touchscreen with *#0*# and everything is fine.
just sometimes this problem occurs and I think this may be software problems...
have you z fold 3?

No. Basic troubleshooting.
Samsung will likely release firmware updates to correct this if enough devices are effected. It may be a 3rd party app causing this... try in safe mode. Disable animations for now and see what its got.
I stopped at the N10+/Android 10 and will likely stay in this holding pattern for at least 2 years.
I have two now and they run close to flawlessly.
Both Samsung and Android are having major issues, plus I require a SD card slot. Even issues on the N20U, which helped nix it from my list.
It may be a good year for Fold fans but otherwise both Android and Samsung have dropped the ball and are in a flat spin... in my opinion.

my problem is just like what you see in this youtube video in Time 12:15 and 12:49 . I must double try some times to click some things. this is very annoying on the keyboard and when you are typing quickly.

If stateside you can go to a Best Buy that has a Samsung Experience store. They can do advanced testing on it... allegedly.
I would get it resolved soon or return it for a complete refund.

I tested the touch screen with "touch screen test" Application and uploaded a video on youtube, you can see here.

It looks fine to me... do you mean latency time?
What are power settings at? Try bumping it up to maximum performance.
Check ram usage.

Is there anyone here with z fold 3 and the same problem?!!!

I only face this problem when I touch the edge of the display with my palm.

I tried to replicate the issue. I downloaded the same app on my Fold 3. I tried for few minutes.
On my device every click is registered. No missing dots.

I have the exact same issue. I addressed it by increasing the screen sensitivity.

Hey, I just noticed it today as well. When I try to type text faster, sometimes I need to double click on letters. I think this problem came with the latest update, because I havent had that problem before. It is frustrating.
I tried to turn on sensitivity option in settings and I will reply here after day or two testing.
seems to be a bit better with that option turned on
