Did you try using a pin? It's only used after a reboot.

i don't think it is something with the way you lock it cause if i lock the screen with the buttom i can open it after with only the finger print so it is something with the locking way

Air Gesture - Screenshot Capture

So the S4 has a built in screenshot capture using an air gesture. All my other gestures work besides this one. Anyone else have the same issue (yes, it's enabled in options). I can't even get passed the tutorial where they show you how to use it.
are you touching the screen? You kind of swipe the side of your hand across the screen, but I find you do need to touch it most of the time.

Fingerprint always on screen

Hey im having a problen with unlocking my phone with my fingerprint when its on the always on screen, ive seen youtube videos on people unlocking there phones from that screen by when i place my fingerprint on that screen it wont unlock

You have to press the home button and then just hold your finger there for a second or so. Same way as you would when you aren't using Always-On-display.
If you've seen cases where the lock screen doesn't even appear, sometimes it will unlock very quickly so you barely see it

Ive seen people unlock there phones on the black screen with the clock, they just hold their finger on it and it unlocks

They might use their own mod to do so but I've never seen it...

you can activate the edge feed when the screen is black and then unlock with the fingerprint but from the always on display it is not possible.

Nice trick, thanks for the tip. Not sure which is more annoying though - having to press the home button or doing the finger swipe to avoid pressing the button LOL. Why oh why Samsung couldn't you have made the home button capacitive too.

Ahah agreed
But they just did this to allow us to see notifications without turn on the whole screen ^^

The finger print scanner is capacitive it's just that it isn't on all the time. Try this app it will allow you to wake the phone by placing your finger on the scanner but you will not be able to use fingerprint unlock as long as you have it set to wake the phone. I think you might have to pay for the full version to get the wake feature. I've paid for it so I know it works.
Here is the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.easyhome
EDIT: THIS APP NO LONGER WORKS AND IS UNABLE TO WAKE THE PHONE WITH THE FINGERPRINT SCANNER.

I found an app called Always on AMOLED, that replaces the Samsung AlwaysOn and keeps the fingerprint scanner on, so you don't have to press the button, just touch it. It's auto brightness is a bit buggy though

Finger Print Scanner Without Lock Screen?

Is there a way to register your finger print on the device without using an actual secure lock screen? I like just having the swipe Lock Screen, but I like using my fingerprint to sign into certain things, like my bank app. This was possible on the Note 7, but I can't seem to get it to work here.

Disable "second" lock screen in EUI

I hate lock screens so I disable them. If the fingerprint reader were better I'd seriously consider using it to unlock the phone, but it isn't.
My problem now is the "second" lock screen on this phone. Not sure if this is an andorid thing or an EUI thing, since I haven't used android 6.0+ before.
Essentially, I need my home screen to appears when I click the power button. Is that possible? If so, what setting am I missing to disable this screen with the time and camera icon on it?
What is this SECOND LOCK SCREEN?
What issues are you having with Fingerprint? Mine has worked flawlessly.
You have already disabled the block screen on the phone?

So it turns out its just the regular lock screen. The best I can seem to do is set the auto-lock to 30 minutes - this is the maximum time out. This is better, but I want NO lock screen. Does anyone know if this is possible? Some setting I am missing?
I dunno about the fingerprint reader. I'm no apple fan boy but I have to use one for work, and the fingerprint reader on apple devices is far superior, so I'm spoiled with my expectations. The better solution for me is to just get rid of the lock screen.

Ahem the FP of Le Pro 3 or any Android phone out there is far superior because you can unlock the phone even if the screen is off.
Can't find a setting either; if set to none you still have to slide up the lock screen. Other phones I've had remove it all together if set to none.
Finger print sensor on mine seems fine, so i just use that.
Freezing 'System Interface 6.0.1' in Titanium gets rid of lock screen, but has some serious side effects.

This worked for me:
After pressing Power or scanning Finger Print the ``Second Lock Screen´´ pops up, don´t slide to unlock or press any of the icons or ads, instead look for three little pale white dots on upper left corner of display, (they are hard to notice with some wallpapers, specially the included on the phone wallpapers) almost like the ones in some browsers to deploy a menu, press that, and the Locker app should pop up asking you if you want to disable it, press Disable and that should do it!
If you can´t see them try setting a lock screen wallpaper that has solid dark colors on the upper part of the screen.
I don't understand the problem but I've been using this for 1 year

NO. it is not possible as it is related to of the finger print reading sensor.
