Hello, Yesterday i have received my OP2 and flashed it to Hydrogen OS, which is working super smooth and fine. All sensors are working properly. I am using Fingerprint Scanner to unlock the phone, but i was thinking is their any app by which i can use my Fingerprints to lock and unlock the apps as right now for those i have to still use pattern or Pin lock.
Searching for some apps for this i found that an app called FingerSecurity <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rickclephas.fingersecurity&hl=en> is available at playstore, that is able to do the same what i need, but it is not compatible with OP2. so is their any way to use it on OP2 or is any other app available for doing so ???
--Thanks

I doubt if 3rd party apps will be able to access FPS till devices are upgraded to android M.

Hi Yogi,
even i am facing the same issue.
i am using smart app Protector, but it is not locking any apps.
Do reply if you hav found any solution of same
same here...
tried reinstalling the whole rom but still applock not working... a few days back it ws working on l bt now idk wht happened.
Anyone having this problem? I switched my lock screen security over to the fingerprint scanner the other day, and I seem to be having some problems with it. It works ok. Like I can scan my finger, and the screen will unlock, but I keep randomly also getting asked for my alternate password, which is the other way that I can unlock it.
I'll unlock the screen with my fingerprint, then it will ask me for my password. I can hit Cancel, and it will still work fine, or if I enter the password, it takes me to the Lock Screen settings. It also randomly asks for my password if I'm just doing something random, like using Google Maps. And now, sometimes the screen won't even come on, when I wake the device. Black screen, backlighting lights up. What the heck??? Very strange. Please help, thanks in advance,
I'm having issues with my finger print scanner

I used the finger print scanner for a couple of weeks but went back to a pin because it was just quicker to unlock the device. The only time I got the "alternate password" was when I exceeded the five or six tries you get with the finger print scanner. Are you rooted and if so what apps/services do you have frozen?

Thanks for the reply! So, basically after failing to unlock with your fingerprint five or six times, it stopped letting you swipe the scanner, and prompted you for your password? Or did it unlock with your fingerprint on the fifth or sixth try, and THEN ask you for your password? Just wondering.
To answer your other quesiton, I am not rooted, but I do have a number of apps "Turned Off" via the Application Manager. They are:
Accessories
Amazon
Amazon Kindle
Amazon Appstore
Caller Name ID
Drive
Flipboard
Google Play Games
Google Play Movies & TV
Google Play Music
Google Play Newsstand
Hangouts
IMDb
Isis Mobile Wallet
Memo
POLARIS Office 5
Slacker
Verizon Tones
VZ Navigator
Should I not have any of these disabled? Thanks again!

It would not unlock the phone, I would have to enter the password to proceed. The apps you have turned off should not cause you a problem.

Hmm intersting. So, my problem is different. Anyway, good to know that the apps I have disabled shouldn't cause a problem.
Well, the only other thing I can think of is that maybe an app I recently got is causing the Lock Screen to go haywire. A couple weeks ago, I got an app called Worx Home from my workplace that allows me to check my work email on my phone. It actually forced me to have a security setting enabled on my lock screen, so maybe it's messing with it. I don't recall having this problem when I first got the phone, and tried out the fingerprint lock. Maybe I should mess with that app.
Anyway thanks for the replies.

Yeah, it sounds as if Worx Home could be your culprit.

Yeah, I think that's a safe bet. In fact, if I read the documentation correctly for Worx Home, the app checks your phone's security every 6 hours to make sure you have a password, pin or pattern setup on your lock screen. Guess maybe it doesn't like the fingerprint scanner since it's such a new feature, and it tries to pull up my Lock Screen Settings, hence the random Alternate Password screen.
Alright, guess I gotta either suck it up, or switch to a pattern or something. Thanks again!
P.S. Can disabling S-Voice or Samsung Messages cause any problems?
I was just curious if anyone has successfully been able to set up and use fingerprint unlock for bank apps like chase or bank of America? The apps themselves have you register the fingerprint, but after that I have never been able to actually use it to unlock the app. I am using Skydragon H2OS rom, and was wondering if any other roms work with this feature.

So I know you need to use the Ambient Display / wake on tap to use the fingerprint reader.
But can you use it for regular fingerprint apps, like a banking app?
I tried finding information about this in Youtube comments and whatnot, but no one replied.
Thanks!
The banking app I use along with other apps that use fingerprint work fine with a fingerprint.
It works with my 2 banking apps.
Also works with other, non banking apps...
Works for me as well, ABN Amro in the Netherlands.
Yes. Works just fine using Numbrs.
It works exactly the same as every other fingerprint reader, so yes.
I can relate. With my Samsung Galaxy S7 my Wells Fargo app would allow me fingerprint to sign in option, not anymore on the OP6T. But on the Cash app, to deposit money it presents the option for fingerprint yet oddly enough only receiving - not when sending money
Yes, works fine
Works with my PNC, Paypal and also MyBuick app
That is very weird. Maybe the app is too old? Or OnePlus has to fix the firmware?
Working on all four of my bank apps
So it was actually well hidden in the settings but I got it to work lol. Thanks for the doubt guys.
Working well with all my bank apps (CapitalOne, BoA, etc)

Works with Barclays in the UK also(Banking and PingIt).
Works fine with USAA, CapitalOne, KeePass, Authy and everything else I've used it for.
Works with Chase, JP Morgan, Citi, American Express, discover, and google pay.
. Yes, you can use fingerprint reader for logging in to your online banking account. Have it set up before you download a banking app, once you go through initial login /password /secret words, etc, a pop up window will ask you if you want to use fingerprint for future logins. Tap yes of course and it should work. Same is for PayPal, ebay for instance
Like everyone else said it works just like any other fingerprint scanner.
PayPal and Bank of America works fine with it.
@Elloco305 the phone settings or the bank app settings?
I'd like to use Smart lock but it's not available in the menus. I read some solutions that require rooting that I don't want to make because I'm warried about the issues with Google Pay and some bank's apps not working anymore after rooting.
So, is there a way to have Smart lock back?!?
Thanks in advance
Rob

Can you please point out to any (working) solution that requires root - but without the usage of any kind of Xposed (only Xposed is a threat for Google services but I doubt that even Xposed could make it really working).
With root, you can install:
[ROOT] Smart Lock Launcher - S - Apps on Google Play
[ROOT REQUIRED] A small shortcut to open Google's Smart Lock settings.
play.google.com
and get the menus and setup Smart llck, but no avail since Trusted places, Trusted devices (except maybe for Xiaomi BT devices) and On body detection will not work
I.e., I have root and just reinstalled Smart Lock Launcher (for the purpose of screenshots below) but I'd like to see how to make Smart Lock options really working. A year ago I spent quite a time, searching through forums for various other Xiaomi devices, but no avail
It only worked (with Smart Lock launcher I got it working) with one of Xiaomi eu weeklies, but since the next week, it was (most likely, intentionally) disabled

I referred exactly to that app that I haven't tested because I've no root but I thought it was working. Thanks to you, I realize now that it's not the solution as well.
I'm really disappointed because of the unavailability of the Smart lock that I miss a lot when I'm home and working.

Added two more screenshots above, I just setup again Trusted places and On body detection, then locked the screen - but on turning the screen on it still asks me for finger or pin (although both rules for Trusted places and On body detection should have been kicked off and automatically unlocked my Mi 9T)
Currently on Xiaomi.eu, A11 beta, 21.3.18

Thanks zgfg, you saved me from a useless rooting of the phone.
I really don't understand. What's the matter?!? Does Xiamoi care about the issue? Is there a plan to fix it in the future?
