Some cases don't work with V10 fingerprint reader. Name your case and if it works or not.

I got my V10 Sunday and didnt set up my finger print sensor for a few days. I bought it at Verizon and also got an Incipio Dual Pro case. Well to my surprise, the fingerprint scanner will not work unless you are touching the stainless steel sides of the phone. With the case, its a no go.

Name the case you have
If it has cut outs exposing the sides
And if your fingerprint scanner works with it or not.

I have read online that some cases will work, just not mine😢

i do not believe a work-around has been found for the issues of using the scanner with a case on the phone
 
Yeah... Having the same issue with the same Incipio case. I have tried to use the fingerprint scanner numerous times with the case off and it is extremely difficult to use. As soon as I take the case off... No issues what so ever. I got this case from T-Mobile

Same case and same color as mine.I love the case I just want to be able to use the fps.
 
Saw this on anther thread even though I spoke on a Incipio case uploadfromtaptalk1447010541932.png
 
I've got the verizon case that has the belt holster. It doesn't work if I try it from the sides but works perfectly if I place my finger on from the top

I have the same case, it works most of the time, and in time is suppose to adapt to your finger.

I am using the same case in black...doesn't work at all...

Also I bought a thing silicone skin case from Verizon - works about 75% of the time but not as if there is no case on the phone...

Same here. Bought the red Incipio case and no go with the thumb scanner. Guess this forces me to try it without a case for a will. Haven t done that in years and I'm a little scared.

I hear ya! I even wish they had a tempered glass option to help the screen protection! But no dice yet.
