Le max 2 finger print

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

For me the fingerprint Scanner is working perfectly. Faster than iPhone 6 und it only fails to read 1 out of 15. Got 3 prints registered and it does very well

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.

Finger print verification issue

On my Redmi 3s the finger print use to log in works on paypal but not in Ebay and on my banking app. It works on iPhone and on nokia 6. I have tried it on Redmi 3s global stable and global developer rom but nothing changed. the banking app developers have taken feedback but I don't think they can do anything as the app shows "tap fingerprint (icon) to use fingerprint log in" and after tapping I get unable to login with fingerprint use password instead error popup.
is there any fix to it Xiaomi forum and bug report since the app introduced the feature couldn't help.

Can you unlock your phone with your fingerprint? What about app lock? Does your fingerprint work for app lock and other functions of the phone?

Yes the fingerprint works fine elsewhere it is just the 2 apps that I have the problem with. On the ebay app the popup asks to place finger on the scanner, when done nothing happens and I have to go back and sign it. On the bank app the pop up says tap fingerprint to use that method to sign in and when I tap screen I get another popup saying fingerprint option is not available use password instead. The 2 apps work fine on the Nokia 6 and iPhone. This eliminates apps being wrongly coded as they have the same path to sign in on the nokia 6( I think atleast the apps are not at fault) what could be the cause and how to work it out. I have tried it on the MIUI global stable versions the last 3 including the current one have the same problem and the global developer rom last 3 have the same issue.

Hmm.. These 2 apps work on the Nokia 6 and iPhone, therefore they should work on the MIUI too? The Nokia 6 is running Android I believe but the iPhone is running iOS. I don't think including the iPhone is a good comparison. Also, in the absence of a comparison with orher phones, have you investigated whether owners of other brand Android phones have experienced similar issues?
Also, everything else works with your fingerprint except these 2 apps yet you think the fingerprint sensor is at fault? Does that sound reasonable?
Based on the above, I am not convinced that it's the fingerprint sensor or MIUI's fault as you seem to make out.

I never said fingerprint is at fault. I am asking how do I fix it. comparing it with other phone like Nokia running android maybe there is something in the MIUI version of the OS that is bothering these 2 apps. and hence the queries.

I really can't say. However, have you compared it with other Android phones except the Nokia? How does it work with, say, this or that Samsung or LG phone. Have you searched the internet? Isn't a comparison based on just one phone kinda sparse?

It's a software issue, I also can't for the longest time use my fingerprints for PayPal login, I tap it and it says fingerprint verified and then just stays on that screen until I quit the app

Third party app's fingerprint issue in every custom ROM I've tested

Hey guys!
Just to be clear it is not a hardware issue I don't have any kind of a problem with the stock ROM. Everything fingerprint related works as it should.
The problem. I am able to set several apps to use fingerprint login (couple of banking apps and ebay app for example). Everything works fine until the first reboot or the first day. Then the apps suddenly stop to use (or see or detect) the fingerprint sensor. They either start with an error or give the error when I try to login with my finger. When I log in the app with a PIN code I can see the fingerprint login is disabled and when I try to re-enable it the most of the apps crash, some of them just repeat again the error. It's not that they don't recognize the fingerprint itself. They simply don't get that far - they can't use the sensor.
The problem for me is present in every custom ROM I've tried, no matter 8.1 or 9.0. I've tested Liquid Remix (9.0), Havoc (9.0) and Bootleggers (8.1)
On the other hand unlocking the device with fingerprint works always fast and perfectly fine no matter the ROM - stock or custom.

Just a little update here. I found another ROM that (so far) has no problems in regards of the fingerprint. The unofficial Pixel Experience.

Fingerprint reader and custom ROMs

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.

Rom with always ready fingerprint

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
