I'm new at this phone and added a couple fingerprints my 1st finger in right hand and 2 nd finger on left hand when I hold it. Is it really a clicking first then it vibrates opens up phone? Is there an easier way for the sensor?
Are you asking if there's a way to unlock the phone just by touching the fingerprint sensor? If so, on the stock ROM, there is not. I just press the button and keep my finger on it until it unlocks. Only takes a second.
I haven't tried any custom ROMs (or even rooted for that matter, for Marshmallow and onward, I haven't felt the need to), but one of those might have that ability. I can't make any promises, though.
Hey,
I have a strange issue with my fingerprint sensor. Whenever I add a new fingerpringt the phone starts to recognize a finger without even touching the sensor. As soon as I have added a fingerprint the phone keeps unlocking itself. Thus everytime when I lock the phone by pressing the power button a few seconds later the phone is being unlocked again by itself. I already flashed a new persist.img without any change in behaviour resulting. Maybe someone can help me here? I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance.

I had that happen to me as well, when my scanner starting malfunctioning and eventually stopped working entirely.

So, is the issue from the hardware itself? I am facing this issue since 3 days ago
Can someone identify my problem?
First, when you touch the screen with one fingee its fine. But when you add another finger and move it around its fine too, but the moment you leave one of those finger in screen, the touch of the second finger is still holding same as 4 fingers and leave it on screen. I hope someone can help.
i am facing very awkward problem..
i had to place one finger on anywhere on screen and with other finger i can touch the screen...i think its due to encryption. yesterday the problem solved automatically but after restart its happening again. anyone with the solution?

Hi,
Is anyone else getting an error where your screen when left alone goes completely blank, finger print and AOD not showing, sometimes I can guess where the fingerprint sensor is, sometimes even that doesn't work?
Also the AOD sometimes rotates, which obviously puts the finger print sign in the wrong place!
On both occasions pressing the power button a couple of times fixes, but annoying!
Is this a known fault and is there a fix?
