    Fingerprint Scanner Not Working Well

    After reading the past couple pages and having the worst day with it yet.. I decided to readd one of my registered prints. It read my print okay, I added it, it was working great! I then took a shower and it's been a couple of hours since... now it's back to miserable failure! Haha yeaahhh!

    My scanner is now in the "not working at all" stage of the day. Won't recognise anything! Just did 50 consecutive attempts.. nothing. I licked my thumb a little bit and it immediately let me in. Cool.

    Re: Relax and Just Use Face Recognition Haha, I did this several times last night. It is going to be awkward the first time I need to do that for Google Pay haha!

    It didn't work all morning for me. I gave up trying for a while. However, my hands are quite clammy now and I'm getting in first time every time! I shall enjoy this while it lasts haha! But yes I agree, hoping they can change a couple of 0s and 1s and it'll be great for everyone!

    My thoughts too. Apart from these issues, the phone is an absolute stone cold killer!

    For the record, so do I. I'm a software engineer and have written many android applications.. good for me?? I've also spent many hours showing people how to use functionality correctly.. I assure you this is not one of those times.

    Perhaps.. maybe it's the fault of my skin being dryer than yours? Everyone can have an opinion on this, but I'd like to think I can still have success with the FPS at some point through an update.

    Haha Florida! Your fingers will be nice and moist often I guess! I'm glad it's working so well for you! Your suggestion is a nice idea, however, in the worst/dryest moments the FPS won't even recognise my fingers when registering. I have been through the registering process many times (usually...

    I would never have said I had dry hands before owning this phone and having this problem. They just seem perfectly normal! However, maybe that's just it.. the phone wasn't made for lizard hands! Haha

    I wonder if it's worth returning them for the people who are struggling. Very well could be a bad batch!

    I don't disagree. Unfortunately for plenty of others it is not fine. I imagine people who live in warmer climates probably have greater success, doesn't mean it's "right".

    Wow. Narrow minded or what? Like plenty of others, I have spent many hours watching videos and reading articles detailing how best to use the fingerprint scanner. I have tried EVERYTHING that has been suggested and the only thing that makes it work consistently is to moisturise my hands or lick...

    Fingerprint Scanner Not Working Well

    Glad to hear so many are having better luck with it now! Unfortunately, no suggestions make it better for me apart from keeping my thumbs moist. I'm not taking off the screen protector, no chance. The option to make the screen more sensitive doesn't mention the fingerprint scanner, the...
