I was wondering thoughts on this I have the phone and have noticed that I am still hitting the power button to double tap the notification to unlock the phone directly to the app (smart lock and on body/trusted place enabled) and not using the fingerprint sensor because it just unlocks phone. (To the home screen or last app left open). Don't get me wrong the fingerprint sensor is amazing.
When you double tap the notification, you can use the fingerprint scanner instead of putting you pattern or pin in, even though it doesn't look like you have that option.

That's good to know thanks, but you still have to hit the power button if you have ambient display off.
I have a smart watch so smart unlock is always there. The problem is smart unlock goes into lock screen but finger print goes into home screen directly. I'm not sure if it's intentional to make more people use fingerprint.
I stopped using smartlock because of nexus imprint. Smart lock is kind of hit or miss anyways (at least on the original nexus 5) and nexus imprint is much more accurate and reliable.
Also, of your phone is lost or stolen, a criminal wont be able to unlock it by going to a trusted location or connecting to a trusted WiFi/Bluetooth source.

Wait this thing has a power button? Lol I've have barely used the power button since I set up imprint on day 1
It just works so flawlessly (unless my finger is wet/moist) I pick up the phone and my natural finger position lands and bam it's like my phone was never in sleep mode. I ended up only setting up smart voice for the ok google function and disabled face unlock and on body detection, I never used trusted location, WiFi or Bluetooth to paranoid about losing my phone

Would appreciate some thoughts on this:
I like using an app to lock my phone, and I have this one installed:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iglint.android.screenlock
It locks the screen, but I notice that the Nexus 6p will not allow me to wake the phone via the fingerprint sensor.
If I use the app to lock the screen, and then use the fingerprint sensor, the phone prompts me to enter my pin.
If I use the power button to lock the screen, the fingerprint sensor works as intended.
Thoughts?
My thoughts would be that this app has not been updated to include fingerprint sensors to be able to unlock.
Once it does that, I assume it would work.
Either that or only an official method of locking the screen can allow your fingerprint to unlock.

Screen Off and Lock Apps break Nexus Imprint

i would love to be able to turn the screen off and lock with the fingerprint scanner. hence - we would never have to touch the power button.
I'm not sure if im right but ive tried it 6-7 times and there is a major security glitch in the phone.
Here it goes:
When the screen is locked ( protected by finger print authentication and pattern lock), if u trigger the OK GOOGLE command ( not by pressing the microphone button in the lock screen) and ask it a question , it will bypass the authentications and direct u to the google answer screen and if u tap the middle home button the phone unlocks itself.
maybe its just my phone or am i missing something?

This glitch does not exist on my phone. If I press the home button from the OK GOOGLE page, it takes me back to the lock screen. It is still locked and only unlocks after I authenticate.

Long press on home screen and then press on settings.
Go to voice -> ok google detection and then turn off trusted voice.
It's not a bug. It just recognizes your voice but its not safe. As the feature is not accurate it may unlock even with others voice. Better turn off trusted voice. The voice command works even from lock screen works if your turn on option to Ok google from any app.
When i use it it says that the screen is locked and won't open my contacts
Try this

In Google app setting, go to 'Voice' > "Ok Google' Detection > and then check if the Trusted Voice is On or Off. If it is On then turn it Off. I hope this will help.

this worked tyvm
I've noticed odd behavior with Google Now and the moto z force. I'm hoping someone else can confirm this Behavior. With the screen on, press the finger print sensor to lock the phone. Now press power button. The pattern or pin lock screen should come up. Without entering a pin or pattern now say Okay Google to launch Google Now. Say whatever you want to launch a search result and then press the home button. On my phone, The lock screen has been completely bypassed.
Edit: after doing some looking it appears as though Google Now has something called trusted voice which will unlock your phone if it knows your voice. Didn't know that was a thing and it's kind of creepy to be on by default. Google Now knows my voice. And fingerprints. And pictures of my face. Google's going to build a clone of me I know it
The OnePlus 6T's fingerprint sensor can easily be bypassed with this trick. . We have confirmed it working on two phones so far. Phone Unlocks itself via camera and voice from Lock screen, plz some one report..
Please confirm that the phone cannot see your face when you unlock it, and no Smart Lock trigger was active.
This alleged problem does not exist on my phone.

No i turned off face unlock , it just unlocks itself, just open the camera from lockscreen then close the camera app,
no , i turned off face unlock, it unlocks itself from launching camera from lockscreen thn closing the camera app, it bypasses all security locks " fingerprint , pins and face unlock"
We shall wait for others to check. I couldn't reproduce the error at all.
Do not have this problem with mine, are you sure you don't have your left thumb registered?

Either way if this is true. you should be reporting it to OnePlus. Not telling everyone on XDA how to break into someone elses 6T

So if I'm hearing you right, you're saying that by opening the camera from the lockscreen and then pressing your home button, your phone unlocks? Doesn't do that for me, it prompts me for my PIN or fingerprint when I press the home button. Can't reproduce this either... Might reinstall OOS? I'm at a loss for advice on this one.
I can reproduce this. I use navigation gestures, so opening the camera from the lockscreen and then just close it with the right (or left) swipe gesture to go back and you're in the phone. I don't think it has anything to do with the fingerprint sensor.
Edit: now I can't reproduce it anymore strange.. [emoji848]
I'm not able to reproduce this either. Switched to navigation gestures. Turned off face unlock. Launched camera from lock screen. Swipe from side to go back took me to lock screen with fp prompt only, no keypad for PIN. Tried again, this time swiping from middle to go home. I get fp prompt & keypad for PIN. However, with this screen the camera stays open and viewable through the lockscreen, but phone is still locked.
After a few tries I see my home screen but it's only a flash then it's back to my lock screen. It looks like it may want to but maybe I'm doing it wrong. Either way, this looks important enough to report to OP and see what's what.

Tilted phone so it can't capture my face and tried as you've said - running camera and voice commands from lockscreen and phone is still locked, cannot bypass..
So there are two vartiants.
1) Phone still recognizes your face
2) Enabled smart unlock? so phone knows that you are in home and automatically unlocks device.

Nope, i unlocked my friends mobile @ my home...
You sure you have a pin/fp/pattern set up at all?
I've been trying for 5 minutes with gestures and it always just either asks me for a pin or sends me back to the lock screen.
Seems odd but maybe post it on the OP forums instead of here, won't get them to fix it if they aren't aware of it...
Nope. Unable to reproduce.
