I have a nexus 6p 32GB phone running MultiROM with Dirty Unicorn as the base ROM and Screwed as a secondary ROM. I have not found anything thus far but wanted to know if there a way to get the finger print scanner to work with the screwed ROM?
Fingerprint scanner doesn't work on second ROM.

Trying out finger scanner and it's been working good for me. I encrypted SD card and then fingerprint unlock mode is greyed out with everything but input password. It appears encryption disables it's use. Is this correct??? I love using finger scanner to log into Web sites and unlock phone and it seems crazy it would be disabled with encryption enabled. Is there a work around? My understanding is android- L is stock encrypted so wonder how that will work with finger scanner. Love note 4 so far except this issue. Can someone shed any light on this and possibly work arounds.

Not exactly to the point, but how do you use finger scanner to log into web sites?
as per title really?
I've googled around a bit and not found anything definitive to explain the root-cause.
A few sites and threads claim to fix or provide a workaround, but from what I've read these are not 100% guaranteed to fix on all variants , all ROMs
I personally have tried latest versions of:
RamRom
DN
X-Rom
Norma
...with none having any fingerprint functionality before or after trying various "fixes"
What gives?
Edit: Yes, we know fp is pretty crap on N4 out of the box anyway, but please, can someone provide detail on why the N7 ports often fail in fp function ?
Well actually the fingerprint reader is really great on my N910C, and I have yet to find any Marshmallow rom that offers fingerprint log-on after a cold boot. They all work for apps and stand-by on/off log-on, but not at boot.
I think, as per usual, the hardware support for developers is crap by Samsung.
In Lollipop roms the fingerprint reader works like a charm.
I'm using nemesis Rom, using 3rd party app work like a charm.
Name of d app called (applock) pro version from play store.

Finger scan lock is working flawlessly in RamRom here on latest version (6) for N910F/G. It was pretty smooth on the last version (4) too.

Fingerprint Enabler xposed module can be used to enable fingerprint log-on after boot.
And if one wishes to bypass the fingerprint log-on, No Lock Home xposed module can be used, works when connected to wi-fi.
If you're talking about Note 7 ports, the reason why fingerprint is not working, the same reason as to why AOD is not working, is because of hardware differences.
The reason why Ramrom manages to get fingerprint working is because it's not really a port but more of a stock Note 4 rom with a Note 7 skin and apps available on it.
since i flashed back to older firmware the finger print scanner is flawless, works every time, with recent and even nougat it was hit or miss and eventually would have to do a scan again
anyone similar?
Soon after I bought OP6T some time ago, first thing I did was to flash custom ROM only to find out that there were no custom ROMs that supported in-display fingerprint sensora those days; with a note that "oneplus still has not published api or library or code or whatever, so I let it go and stayed on stock ROM, telling myself it could take a long to get fingerprint working on non-stock ROMS.
Now I have read few forums and it seems that Fingerprint sensor is working on some or most of custom ROMS,. But lot of people writes they install smurf (or other) kernel to get it working etc., so I am little bit muddled and confused, so I want to ask few questions..:
What's the fingerprint situation with Oneplus 6T?
Is it matter or concern of a ROM to have FP capability, or
is functioning FP sensor dependent on kernel,
or is there some other way to get FP working on any ROM, sth. like Magisk module and so on?
For example, fingerprint sensor is not even mentioned in Havoc 2.0 ROM, which I liked on previous OP devices and would like to install again on 6T. But it is mentioned inside the forum, eventhough some times in negative way as "is is sloow". Thanks anyone who has fe moments to explain this to me.
There are a few ROMs w/ Fingerprint Support. It does sometimes need Magisk in order to function on some but not all. I use Carbon and don't have a problem using it.
Havoc ROM has working fingerprint
I use havoc ROM and the fingerprint sensor works like a champ
I'm on sky dragon ROM. Fingerprint works just as well as stock and I've hit 8 hours of SOT. Battery life with this ROM is ridiculous.
My 6T is on Bootleggers 4.2 and fp sensor works just fine. If you're looking to get into custom ROMs, I'd recommend Bootleggers.
Even Havoc is absolutely fine. Although when I was on Havoc, I had this fp bug but it didn't bother me much.
Hi.
I'm looking for a custom rom with always ready fingerprint, like on MIUI. I've tried a few week ago one of the custom rom, and it was annoying that I must click unlock button and then i can unlock device by fingerprint.
Can You help?
Best regards
Try evolutionx 5.1.
LineageOS works if you enable "always on display". Put your finger and unlock directly.
Shapeshift OS ? has the best implementation for fingerprint unlock.
Very fast and stable rom with Always FOD ready + it has the feature that disables night light on FP recognizing for more accuracy.
thanks for the replying, i tried shapeshitft os, but my bank app was crashed. I've also tried evolutionx, but i've got big problem with performance and camera. Finally, i've backed to global, first time since 1,5 year. And this is it. I forgot, that device can be smooth and bug-free. There's perfect. Thanks for replying Good luck, be health
