Hey guys,
I registrated for this issue, but still I want to thank all of you here. I've found help here for many many years before, so thank you for that .
Now I need to describe my problem to get some help: I've bought my Z1 October last year and suddenly since yesterday the fingerprint reader feels just kinda broken. What I mean is that on Cyanogen OS 12.1 (stock) the fingerprint reader just stopped working completely. I then flashed CM13 (newest nightly) and here it is working, but only when I wake up the phone with the ON/OFF button, and not the home button with the integrated fingerprint reader.
When I use the ON/OFF button everything works perfect, but the home button doesn't work in like 9 out of 10 times. Now I wonder if the fingerprint reader is just broken already or if this is "just" some software issue. But I don't really think that the fingerprint reader is broken, because why didn't it work at all on Cyanogen OS 12.1 but now just not the home screen? I don't know.
Is there any way to test if the fingerprint reader is actually broken? Or another way to fix this? I really, really like the Z1 so far, but this really bugs me.
Thanks in advance .
PS: If this issue was already a topic I'm sorry, i didn't find it. And forgive my english, it's not my mother tongue.
Now that's funny.. exactly the same thing happened to me. All of a sudden, fingerprint reader stopped working yesterday, without having installed an update. When I now try to active fingerprint, it sort of crashes, vibrating for a long time and speeding through the ' fingerprint tutorial' as if I were touching it, which I'm not. This, combined with some random rebooting and crashing. Just did a factory reset and doesn't solve the problem. Not sure whether the reader is broken, but I'm getting pretty fed-up with Cyanogenmod.
Ok that's very interesting. Kinda sounds like it would be a broken update or something, even tho we both didn't install an update. Very strange.
Which OS are you running right now? Is it the same you were running when the issues started? I kinda thought about trying out ZUI, but I've heard it's kinda complicated to get it to work and to go back to CM if required.
running CM12.1. Guess I just wait and see if 13.0 solves the problem.. if they are ever gonna finish that this year. Phone is a lot quicker after the reset btw.. so that is recommendable
Yes, maybe I will try out CM12.1 later today and reply if it worked for me or not. At least CM13 is working like half the time.
Edit: Where can I download the CM12.1 stable? I can't find it on the CM site.
Many people including me are having this problem. We can't find a solution: it's almost one month since fingerprint stopped working.
Home button stopped working too, so I have to use onscreen buttons now. Really frustrated

OK, that's very strange and very frustrating. Gladly my homebutton is still working. But this sounds like a serious issue. And it sounds like a software issue.
Are you using Cyanogen OS?
I am on cyanogenmod 13. I tried to switch between many ROMs, tried to go back to cyanoOS with QFIL but had the same problem you mentioned (phone fast skipping the initial configuration of fingerprint, or always vibrating)
After some days, home button stopped working too (it works 1 time out of 6-7)

Damn, that really sucks. I hope this won't happen to my phone too. I was really happy with the Z1 until now, but why tose issues started with so many people now?
Did you think about sending it back?
I don't really know!
Yes, as soon as I'll get a spare phone I'll send it to China (I've ordered it from Gearbest so I will have to wait for months to get it back)

Hey
I just have an status update if anyone else is having this problem and finds this thread.
After my Z1 having terrible battery life on CM13 I went back to the stock Rom (Cyanogen OS 12.1). Right after I've used the Zuk Z1 root tool (to find here on xda) to go back to stock my phone told me that there is a new official update. Right now I'm running stock Cyanogen OS 12.1 YOG4PAS60J. I've just tried out the fingerprint reader again and now it works without any troubles. So it seems like this was just a software issue.
I will try it out more detailed the next days but for now it works wonderful. I hope this is helpful for someone who is having the same problems.

Hey, yes of course I can do this. And no, the Z1 root tool I meant is another one. I will link it in the steps.
1) I've flashed CM13 Nightlies, later I've clearly flashed the CM13 Snapshot
2) Because the Fingerprint Reader wasn't really working on CM13 either and I had terrible battery life I went back to Stock Cyanogen OS 12.1
3) To archieve that I#ve used this tool from Mauronofrio: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z1/orig-development/tool-toolzukz1eng0-0-3-mauronofrio-t3332563
4) I used the instructions in the linked thread to go back to Stock
5) After everything went fine I was setting my phone up when I got a popup for a new Update OTA: YOG4PAS60J
6) I've installed that
7) After like 2 or 3 days I tried out of curiosity if maybe the fingerprint reader works again, and it does.
That's all I've done. After some testing with the fingerprint reader I think my fingerprint reader has still a little bit loose contact, but it works pretty good. So I think it's a mix out of an hardware and an software issue.
I hope I could help you a little bit.
EDIT: It started to not work anymore. I just said "**** it" and disabled the fingerprint reader now. Im very sure now that it's only a hardware problem.
This is exactly what happened to mine! In about 2 days it started lagging a lot and almost stopped working. When I tried to set new fingerprints, it just got stuck in the screen. Did a factory reset (including user data!), tried to set fingerprints and on the 1st try, it just speeds through the wizard without me touching the fingerprint reader, on the 2nd, it starts to vibrate like I was pressing it and I've to force the shutdown to stop. Pretty disappointed with this right now. :/

Hey people.
I had the same problem few days ago. It happened when i restored the stock rom back through twrp. Now i have flashed dirty unicorns 6.0 and the finger print seems to be working fine now.
the problem is in hardware button on my zuk fingerprint stopped working around 1 year ago i tried installing various softwares as zui or cm13 but it did not worked so i have use it only as home button then around half year ago it just stopped working i decided to buy it for 10 dollars from ali express after dissambelling the phone and installing it works now with all functions so the problem is only hardware maybe installing some zip folder will help you for a while but it will stop working soon by the way dissasmbeling the screen was wery hard i have done that with a heat pistol on 300°c

My fingerprint sensor doesn't seem to be working as when I add a fingerprint it occasionally says 'try againe' at the top of the screen and then won't register my finger print. If it does not do that then it retest eras my finger all the way till the last part and then don't respond or vibrate. How can I solve this issue?
I have the same issue.
Looks like I have the same issue as reported by my wife (I'm currently not in possession of the unit as I'm abroad and it has arrived few days back). She knows how to register as I have the Letv 1s and she was playing with it before.
The symptoms are as you say, no vibration and no detection of the fingerprint.
Can it be from the rom that came with the phone (maybe multilanguage). I can't remember if on 1s I had this problem.
Currently I have emailed the shop and I'm waiting for their reply. If you guys find a fix, please share.

Hi,
For me, the fingerprint scanner is the real weak point of this phone.
If it would have a better one, it would be flawless... except for the lack of development due to LeEco not publishing open source for their devices
And trust me : I've had the OP3 for several days before getting the LeEco. And that fingerprint scanner works as it should and in a blink of an eye you can use your phone !
What I found out is that this fingerprintscanner is really sssslllllooooowwwww....
So press it once, and then put your finger back on for several seconds.
But of course, doing so reduces the nice thing in having a fingerprint scanner as you're done quicker with "screen on" + "pattern/code"...
Really hope that LeEco can improve this... but when I see how they act on their own forums (a representative posts about every 20 days) I am not that optimistic

What version of the software are you using?
The fingerprint sensor has gotta be the worst ever in a mobile device. My phone takes good 5 seconds to unlock. Registering new fingerprints takes ages. Last I heard that this was some qualcomm tech which does scanning of skin layers under the top layer. But right now the technology is big fail.
That fingerprint sensor hardware is beta 1 in our phone. I am sure the new Le Max 3 which is coming out with Snapdragon 823 will not have this issue. They will advertise how the fingerprint is now 100x faster than before and bla bla.

Even my device on 15S unlockes after 5 seconds. The worst sensor and algorithm ever.
Hello guys,
One way to make finger print recognition better : save several time the same finger print.
Not very sexy but it works for me
So as I have arrived home, I've changed the firmware to 015s stock and the fingerprint started to work. Of course it's not ideal as my 1s but at least it's working. It takes about a second to read and unlock... acceptable to be honest. Maybe they will improve with the upgrades because for 1s it had improved within 2-3 firmwares to super fast recognition.

My experiences after several ROM, the international Indian ROM has removed bug.
Recognition really fast, from 10 attempts 8 immediately.
Note!
By the installation Rome should be installed super su with.
The encoding is prevented with it.
i have the same experience here... got my max2 from geekbuying but wont even recognize my fingerprints... so i updated to 5.8 eui from india not the Chinese version and not it works... however it takes one sec to open slower than my honor 5x. ... hope leeco would make it a bit faster considering the new tech it has...
Is there a major difference between the indian rom and the stock chinese rom that has english language? Does the indian rom have english language selection?
Yes the system language is complete into English.
The fingerprint scanner on 5.8.16s is much improved It seems much faster now. There was even an upgrade notice at first boot where it said it would erase my previous prints to upgrade.
Thanks for the update, will try it.

I've seen this reported many times, but have never seen a solid fix for it. I've had my S5 for over a year, been on Marshmallow since it could be installed with Smartswitch, and have had no problems. I first noticed things were off when youtube would no longer rotate, so I started my device. For the first time since I've updated, android told me I was on Custom firmware (On S5 startup Screen) I was rooted previously in Lollipop, but have not seen this before a few days ago, and haven't anymore. Sometimes with restarting the device or clearing the cache rotation will comeback and the sensor app I have downloaded will show they work, but a lot of times after either it wont. I have not tried resetting the phone yet, for lack of time of backing up files, but any input would be great here. I can give any information that is needed.
@OP:
I have had the exact same issue for about a month now. I was running stock Marshmallow 6.0.1 when this started happening. A few days prior I updated from Lollipop and rooted my device, so I thought that might be the issue. In my attempts to solve it, I unrooted the phone, rolled back to stock Lollipop, and even installed CM13, all the while factory-resetting and clearing the cache. Nothing worked so far, and my sensors still "freeze" after a while, until the next time I restart the phone. Meaning it's likely a hardware issue, albeit a very weird one. At least I got CM13 now, which is just so much better than TouchWiz

Disassembly aside, how do you do the actual reheating/reflow? With a soldering iron? Or did you just stick the whole motherboard into an oven?
I've found guides for taking the S5 apart, but not for reflowing its parts.
I have been using zuk z1 and i am facing this really annoying problem. While playing songs if i turn on the device screen the volume almost doubles all of a sudden. I dont know why this is happening and if this is common among all the zuk z1. I have faced this with zuk z1 running on cm12.1 stock, cm13 release, and cm13 latest nightlies. someone please suggest me a flashable zip or any solution that would heal this problem for ever. Also tell me how to get double tap to wake on cm 13 snapahot release. Thanks a lot.

Tried another player? I never had this issue on any rom with Headphone jack or Bluetooth. Double tap to wake you must use nightly i guess or other roms like nuclear
Yes, tried four different devices. Multiple audio players. All shows same behavior. Audio suddenly increases on screen wake. Same thing happening in stock rom and other stable Cm13 and nightlies too.

Hello, I have a OnePlus Two running the latest CM 14.1 nightly. My fingerprint sensor will not work. It stopped working a week ago, at which point I was still running Oxygen OS, whatever the latest update for it had been. my sensor became buggy, not responding, then quit altogether. I have to use onscreen buttons. I still had fingerprint options at that point in my system settings, but I couldn't do anything with them because they were grayed out. I ended up switching to CM 14.1 hoping a new ROM would help it to work, but now my fingerprint sensor is still non-functional.
At this point, I do not even have fingerprint settings in my settings. I can not locate the com.fingerprint.... process that is supposed to be running, so at this point i feel like the sensor might work, but the process is gone or does not exist. When I dial *#808# it does not recognize that dial code and gives me no feedback, which reinforces my thought that the fingerprint service just does not exist.
user: johnthepig, at the end of this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/help/home-button-tried-fixes-t3366992/page2) said back in may that after Oxygen 3.0.1, the fingerprint sensor would not work in anything else. that he tried going to CM and it wouldn't work and then he went back to Oxygen and it worked, and back to CM again and it wouldn't work. My experience was that it just stopped working in Oxygen. Is there a way to manually give my phone the proper com.fingerprint service/process to run?

No, unfortunately I never found a resolution to the issue. I'm still using my OnePlus Two and just operating it with the on screen buttons. At this point I'm just used to it and don't think about it anymore. It was very annoying originally. I'm still not sure if it's just the missing process, or whether it's a hardware issue and because the hardware isn't there, it doesn't obtain the process or what. Idk honestly. I resigned myself to on screen buttons till I upgrade in another year or so.
I have had this phone for more than 4 months now, and I have 2 problems with it (both software), which OnePlus failed to fix over several updates, even though they are aware of these problems.
My first problem is the panorama mode. This phone makes just the worst panoramas. My hands are a little shaky, and the pictures that come out are completely unacceptable (even though it doesn't have ois) for a "flagship killer". I had a Nexus 5X before, which made almost always perfect panoramas with a much worse camera. I feel like the devs put the panorama mode in the camera just so that it has the feature, but didn't spend any time on the algorithm.
My second problem, which is the bigger one is about bluetooth. First of all, the phone had/has a weird bug where if you turn on the bluetooth then go to the bluetooth menu to choose which device you want to connect to (either by long pressing the bt icon in the notification bar or from the settings app), the ui would freeze and you have to wait a half-a-minute or so, for the ui manager to restart (in older versions of oos, the phone itself restarted). Now in 5.1.1 it doesn't do this as often as it used to, but it still happens. The second issue with bluetooth is connectivity. Sometimes when I have my headset turned on and I turn on bluetooth on the phone it connects right away (like it should) and I am happy.
Other times (most of the time actually) I have to manually select which device I want to connect to (bringing us back to freezing), and even then it still takes a couple tries for the phone to succesfully connect.
So these are my 2 issues with this phone, I hope they will get fixed soon. I feel like the dev team is always working on the next phone after release, and they don't spend anywhere near enough man-hours on released device support.
Other than these, I'm loving this device, it's fast, has great battery life and does everything well.
Do you have these bugs, do they bother you or do you have any other problems with the phone you would like to share?

Yes, I have, I clean installed 5.1.0. I read about both problems on the OnePlus forums, so I guess it's not just me. But I can try when I have some time to reinstall the phone. Btw, I am running oos 5.1.1 rooted, nothing else, so I don't think that is the problem.

Dont know about the panaroma mode but i face no issues like you mentioned regarding Bluetooth.
Try flashing an OOS based custom rom and see how that treats you.
my only main issue with this phone is the oil painting effect.

The way the Alert Slider works and how we can't customize it to our needs. But I guess this is a problem with all OnePlus phones.

Things I am not comfortable with are
1). Notification dropdown works even on lock-screen.
2). you can power off the device from Lock-screen.
Both are security concerns as someone can turn wi-fi and data off or power down the device if found or stolen.
