Fingerprint fix coming within 24 hrs.

I saw the update then it disappeared. So I guess I will wait for it to pop up again.

I wonder which specific screen protectors are affected? I removed the Samsung installed protector and am using a TPU soft protector. Seems to work ok after the reboot, but I haven't reset my prints.

It's a certain type of screen protectors that's causing the issue. If you don't have that type of protector leave it on. I still have on the Samsung installed one. I didn't have to remove.

I have the factory screen shield and didn't re-register my fingerprint. Samsung could have been a bit more explicit about factory installed vs aftermarket shields. In any case things seem to be real snappy so I'm not going to mess with something that works well.

I got it this morning but I don't know how. lol. I had a notification this morning so i clicked it and said download update while I went in the shower. Came back expecting a prompt to install the update but there was nothing. So I don't know if it was a notification from the galaxy store or what, but it doesn't appear to be a regular system update. I unlocked with fingerprint when I came back so my phone didn't restart. It was under 8MB. Should have paid more attention but I assumed it was a system update and I'd get more info after it downloaded. I am in Canada with an unlocked 10-.

Edit:damn, the sensor is fast now. No real delay anymore.

Lol, but did they really fix the security flaw or did they just do a cya with their disclaimer in the notes section.

got the update yesterday, downloaded and installed; hype is over

Samsung could have been a bit more explicit about factory installed vs aftermarket shields.

Agree 100%. I was a little confused by Sammy.

 

[EMGSM]

Got the update this morning.

Agree 100%. I was a little confused by Sammy.

The wording seemed like they took the release notes from the Korean fix, ran it through bad translation software, and said "Good enough."

Lol! Yep

Woke up to mine this morning. I didn't take off screen protector or re-register my fingerprints. Just did the quick update and restarted the phone. Probably won't last but my fps work almost every time now lol

Looks like unlocked=notification panel
Carrier version=members app

I got both through notification panel. S10+ Verizon model, Note10+ unlocked model.

 

[Mike Dee]

I want the update as I have an unlocked model, but I'm also on vzw. Sure that's the issue...

Got mine on unlocked model on Verizon earlier today

I registered my fingerprints before I had a screen protector installed and I'm not removing the one I have just so I can reregister without a screen protector in the way.

I'm fairly positive mine works OK as I've tried other finger prints and they won't unlock my phone. Accuracy is good enough as it works ~98% of the time on the first try.

No need to remove screen protector unless it was one of the silicone layered types.

Same here. Finally came through earlier this morning. Haven't noticed a difference though.

Got mine on unlocked model on Verizon earlier today

I got another fingerprint update this morning, that's the third one, first one didn't require restarting the phone as far as I remember.
Unlocked UK Exynos 5G model

 

[transamgrrl]

I got the update yesterday, T-mobile it my carrier.

I still had the factory installed screen protector on the phone and didn't take it off for the update, either. I won't remove it until I'm getting ready to replace it.

I have a Whitestone Dome Glass screen protector I just got that I need to install yet. I figured I would re-register my fingerprints after I install it, instead of re-registering my fingerprints after the update, and then again after I install the Whitestone screen protector.

10+ Verizon variant. Got update Friday evening. I too have Samsung's pre-installed screen protector on and will redo fingerprints when I'm replacing the protector. I tried to replicate the "hack" with an older OtterBox screen protector and it didn't work so I'm confident for now.

I got both through notification panel. S10+ Verizon model, Note10+ unlocked model.

Yup same
