So I got an identical Verizon Note 4 to the one I had. I had both unlocked and rom'd. Then I made a complete TWRP backup of my old phone and attempted to restore it to my new one. Now when I attempt to use the fingerprint scanner I get "An error has occurred with the fingerprint sensor. If this message appears repeatedly, restart your phone". If I go into the hidden menu, under sensors it says Fingerprint test Version: null
I assumed it was due to the fact that each fingerprint sensor has hardware/software unique to each phone, and that I overwrote this software when I restored from one phone to the other. I attempted to flash back to stock retail bpa1 firmware hoping that maybe it would be automatically restored but no dice, still receiving this error.
Does anyone know how to fix this or have I permanently lost fingerprint functionality with this phone?
