Fingerprint in 3rd party apps - Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, there is any chance to add fingetprint support in apps like Lastpass or PayPal?

I think it depends on the apps support and not on the phone support. For example number26 banking app seems to support fingerprints for zuk. So you should encourage the app developers to support zuk fingerprint scanner.

Ok, thank you!

What about use something that makes the device looks like another device to the app?

CM security, a popular antivirus offers the option to lock certain apps and you can unlock them by fingerprint. Not sure if that's what you are looking for but I hope it helps.

Multi-window

Anyone unlock the multi-window feature on their 6P? I'm wondering how it compares to the Note 5 multi-window features.

There's another thread about this.

Summary - it works but imo no where close to how its implemented on Samsung's
Yes, you can enable it and it works...but like the guy above me said-it's not ready yet-it's buggy and unless you want to enable it just to test stuff I don't think you will use it on a regular basis

S7 Edge fingerprint scanner - Marshmallow imprint API?

Can anyone with their S7/Edge confirm whether or not the fingerprint scanner on the device works with apps that support the Marshmallow fingerprint API natively?
For example, LastPass login etc?
It's a feature I love on my Nexus 6P and don't want to lose when my phone arrives on Tuesday.
With fingerprint security rumoured to start featuring heavily in the Google ecosystem through the MM API, I think it'd be a shame if this wasn't present. Can someone put my mind at rest?

Can't say definitely for sure but, I do know that an app called 1password lets you use your fingerprint to unlock the app. And this is supposedly possible because of Android 6.0 marshmallow. And coming from IOS I definitely need this to happen sooner than later. One of the only features I'm missing. Well that and the ability to see my Bluetooth battery percentages.

It worked with my Capital One, which uses the native MM API. It also works with the app Finger Security. It's super fast.
I got my S7 Edge two days ago.
I can confirm the fingerprint scanner on the S7E works with Lastpass.

I noticed that there is now an option do you use your fingerprint in the Google Play Store too.
Ah superb, exactly what I was hoping for! Cheers guys over the moon with that.

I am no longer able to use fingerprint on PayPal. My note 5 was able to just fine. Anyone else?

I distinctly remember my S5 using a third party piece of software for this. Think it was called 'Fido' or something. Hopefully PayPal will implement MM API soon.

OnePlus One - Official Ubuntu ROM finally released

Since I got no OPO, I just want to spread the word, that OnePlus is now running with Canonical.
They´ve set up a ROM with Ubuntu and the Download is already available!
I´ll give you the Link to the Original OnePlus Forum Thread -here- !
You may also write down here how it works out for you.
Happy Flashing!
A couple of methods of flashing do wipe the entire drive out, including user data, but it looks like there are alternatives to that. I may give it a try after I back up my drive, and export it to the cloud.
It works well, except for the known not yet woking parts, like camera and something else (phone?) It's a shame it is pretty much useless as a mobile OS at this point, mainly because of the lack of good apps. I would like to see the project succeed, but if they don't get support from commercial apps it's going to die as others before ...

Is Cerberus really worth the investment ??

I been looking to get it but was wondering if anyone here can testify their personal experience as to yes or no ?
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
You realise they give you a trial right?
Try it and then decide.
I was like you I was unsure, but I tried it and the pros far outweighed the cost.
I got Cerberus with my first android (Motorola Droid). For the cost, putting (I believe) 5 devices for tracking and protection was worth it. Now many of these features are implemented in Google (e.g. remote wipe, tracking, etc.), but it's nice to know I still have Cerberus as a backup (especially photo/location emailed directly to me, and alarm).
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
B.D.

For me it's totally worth it.
Had it for 2 years protecting 3 device's with its many options and features. Worth it, but do trial first....
not sure how much it is anymore (i think i got it when it was $1). regardless it is totally worth it. hopefully its something you will never have to use, but it has many more features than android device manager
Thx all I'm going to try it

Have you compared Cerberus with Prey? I've got Prey installed on my phone, tablet, and laptop (the free version allows installation on 3 devices), and it's got some cool features like blocking the ability to power-off your phone/tablet from the lockscreen, so ne'er-do-wells can't block the ability of the app to do its job. It's also got location-finder, audible alarm, etc. Might be worth a look, see if it meets your needs.
Although, as others have commented: $1 is a tiny price to pay for a good application.

You already have face unlock in the Google/Smart Unlock settings.
If you want to bypass the swipe UP and load straight to the home screen, you can do that with "AutoInput" from the PlayStore.
I've tried and it's functions just like the 5T.

I've tried it too, but frankly, IMHO Google Smart lock is utter crap. Heck it unlocks my phone when I cover half of my face with my hands. OnePlus' face unlock is slightly more reliable, but that's not that secure either. I won't ever use the feature. I created this thread for people who've been constantly asking for the feature
I don't believe OnePlus have released their source code, but there's plenty of suggestions that they are one and the same thing with the exception of OnePlus jumping to the home screen on recognition.
I was able to fool the 5T just as I could Google's smart face so I'm not entirely convinced that OnePlus have really done anything new. Both methods are really quick to recognize, in my experience (Not even sure that's a good thing...).
Don't get me wrong, new features would be great but I kinda feel this is an attempt to generate hype again by OnePlus.
