fingerprint lockscreen

[bjballar41]

I can't seem to get my lock screen set up to do fingerprint. I set my fingerprint and it still only does swipe?

Looks like I can restart phone and it does it once then goes back to swipe

Check to see how long you have it set to wait before requiring the lock. Try setting it to instantly and see if that works.

That worked thanks. It was set to 10 mins. I thought I would lock when I hit it

Apologies for semi-hijacking a thread, it seemed related, and I didn't want to start a new thread just to ask a question.

I'm probably getting the Note 5 soon, and was wondering- When fingerprint security is enabled, is it just a matter of pressing the home button to turn on and unlock the screen? Or does it require press-release-touch again?

U just push power then put finger on home button

Press and hold home button will activate screen and unlock, as will a press and release (without lifting finger from the button).

Awesome. Thank you for your replies and clarification. For obvious reasons, this is one of the few things I wasn't able to test out in Best Buy.
