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.

The N6P has got the same fingerprint sensor than the mate s. Is it possible to get the scrolling feature with the fingerprint sensor as a touchpad for photos and browser ... working? This would be very usefull especially when reading long text.
There is a lot of potential features that could be realized with the fingerprint sensor ... such as switch to last app when longpressed or double tapped while unlocked.
I don't got any programming skills so i don't know how to do this at all. Just some ideas
I do self talk here ... just want to bring this up again.
Scrolling with the sensor would be so usefull as i always got pain in my little finger holding my device while reading long text ... anyone even know if this is possible?
Hi, you do have a good idea! Try the Kinetic Scroll app for now, and ask the developer here about the fingerprint scanner.
If you can, I'd suggest make an xposed module! A lot of people (myself included) would definitely be interested!
I think it's possible to do it because the Huawei made scroll screenshot in their system so why not implement this feature in the fingerprint sensor it will be very useful to all users
Imagine if we could have the functionality of the Nexus 1s track ball from the fingerprint scanner. ?

Use Finger Print Gestures from play store.

yes this app is perfect for me i am using on android-O .
I love the fingerprint acanner on the S5 but sometimes it's not easy to swipe your finger or thumb.
Typing in the backup password is not easy either.
Is it possible to get fingerprint and pattern at the same time.
I've searched a lot for it but with no luck.

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

If you register his/her fingerprint in your phone, they can unlock your phone for you. I let my wife register her finger into all of my phones just in case.

Love the fingerprint unlock locked-screen feature. However, it has it's drawbacks. Can only be activated via - PIN lock. How you set up a pin,and after that it gives you the option to use fingerprint as well.
My question is : how do i use fingerprint only!? No more pin just the finger.
Best part about fingerprint is that you don't have to use the physical button. if the screen is off / locked just hold finger and it opens.
Also. I am now using Action Launcher 3. Super launcher. But it does not allow the function to unlock via fingerprint. Does anybody know if this works ? Where is the setting ?
The pin is used to unlock your sim card, the fingerprint is used to unlock your phone's system. If you don't want any pin code, you can either remove the sim card (well, it will probably be a little bit annoying when you want to call someone ^^), or set the pin code to blank. I don't even know if this is possible, actually.
As phones usually ask pin code before system unlock (fingerprint or other), you probably cannot have a third app that would allow to use fingerprint as pin, as it would have to start before the system. Unless I miss an idea, I think you can't do what you ask.
Figured that it has an automated backup just in case the finger is not recognized . You either get the pin or the pattern. Never just the fingerprint. There is no way around this.
Another question: how do i get the list of apps to go in one single page. Right now With ZenUI launcher there are a few pages. Action launcher 3 has one page (option). ..Is there any way to do this with ZenUI ? I got back to the default launcher from Asus cuz of the fingerprint. it's kinda cool to have it. Even tho Action Launcher 3 is amazing.
What's the problem with Action Launcher? I'm using it with fingerprint unlock and it works just fine.

Clearly you only assumed things only from the setup screen.
OF COURSE in this phone we only use our fingerprint to unlock the screen. No buttons, No pins, No pattern.
If, that is IF, the phone can't recognize your fingerprint for 5 times in a row (because of wet finger, wrong position, dirty etc) it will then requires a pin or pattern unlock. This is why the setup ask you for your pin/pattern first.
