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

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 try this rom too..no success...............
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.

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.
Am I the only oneplus 5 user who can not use ok google when the screen is off and charging? I have all the settings in the google app enabled however it never activates while charging and screen off. It works perfectly fine but never when the screen is off even if it is charging. Can someone please test it out and get back to me! thanks in advanced
Doesn't work for me either but as far as I understand it's meant for unlocking the phone from the lockscreen and not to wake the phone up
No I know for a fact if your phone is pluuged in and screen off it should wake the screen. Thats how it worked on my oneplus 2 , i have also tried it on a lg g4 and many phones.
My Nexus 6p woke up and GA activated upon my saying of Ok Google. Now this does not happen for me as well, I am displeased.
it use to work on my oneplus 2 i dont understand why it doesnt now
I tried changing my Galaxy s7 to a Pixel XL in build.prop and voila it worked again but after a few minutes Google deactivated it remotely because somehow they detected my phone isn't a Pixel.
So I am pretty sure they deactivated the wake up feature for all phones except the Pixel which makes me mad because it worked for a few weeks on my s7.
Is there anyone out there with a non-google phone who can use this feature?

Here's a solution (a.k.a Hack) that I've employed that has worked very well for me for months now.
See this post for "OK Google, with screen off while charging".
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.

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.

Hi guys, I'm the owner of this device since december 2016. I was very happy when it first arrived, it was smooth, responsive, everything worked just fine and I was very happy with Xiaomi.
Later, Xiaomi just launched Redmi Note 4 and then my nightmare began. I was always searching for new MIUI features, and as such, I've installed as soon as possible a Custom MIUI China rom, like xiaomi.eu or MIUIBrasil.
Everything was just going well, but then I've noticed that Xiaomi released MIUI 8.5 on many devices with new features, and our device began to be a little "left behind" when it came to updates.
Later Xiaomi introduced MIUI 9, with the new features and so much more improvements, however, after MONTHS waiting, our phone just got a MIUI with and Android 6.0.1 on IT, they didn't even thought about updating to Android 7, on the excuse of hardware limitations (Oh yes, let's remind that apart from Camera, our phones are EQUAL to Redmi Note 4 in specs), anyway, I've already tried a few AOSP before, and now I thought that this was the time to give it a chance again...
However, with so many ROMs out there, I just thought, OK I'll try some before picking up one to be my daily. And then it began... OK, the first thing I missed from MIUI was the ability to record calls and block calls by choosing numbers from contact list (without having to type then manually), second, Network Type Dialog, which on MIUI I could see only three options (LTE, 3G and 2G) this saves battery and on my Country, my mobile company simply have a bug on their network, and if the network type 4G is selected when data is disabled, it will charge your phone anyway, everyday for using internet... (THAT's RIDICULOUS).
Another thing is the 3 finger screenshot, yes they're present I know, but on MIUI everytime you do this, the screen "freezes" and if its a list, it won't scroll, the same thing doesn't happen on AOSP, when you do Three Finger Screenshot on a list, it scrolls before taking Screenshot.
However, one may ask, Why you're not on MIUI then, if you like it so MUCH?
Ok, I'll answer this by explaining that, I CAN'T
Yes, you read it correctly, everytime I use a MIUI (I've tried many, MIUI Stable, MIUI China, Xiaomi.eu, MIUI 8.6, MIUI 8.3, even MIUI 8.2) and on ALL of them I have the same ISSUE i'm going to report now.
RANDOM REBOOTS after installing Magisk + Xposed combo.
When I got my hands on this phone, as I mentioned early, EVERYTHING worked like a charm, it never rebooted once, Xposed and Magisk were playing nice together, I could use modules from both Magisk and Xposed, and phone was amazing, but now, with newer versions of Xposed and Magisk, it doesn't work anymore.
OK, if I knew what combination I've used in the past, I could simply try them again, but the thing is that I don't, I don't remember which version of Xposed Framework I was using when everything was fine back 1 year and half from now, neither the Magisk version.
So I'm stuck with either using MIUI and having phone rebooting every now and then (it doesn't even REBOOT totally, it just doesn't turn on screen anymore and if you put screen against source of light you can barely see the BOOTLOGO animation Stuck, like if it were burned in on screen, it's weird) or with AOSP lacking many features I found useful on MIUI.
TL;DR I'm very displeased with this phone, with how XIAOMI forgot it and how frustrated I am because I can't use it properly, I can't customize it as MY OWN, and I just wanted to use it without rebooting.
Well that's all, just wanna share that and know if anyone else had the same feeling.
Best regards
1. You can use 3rd party app to record calls on aosp. With proper searching, you can get exactly what you want. For the blocking numbers from list, how often do someone need to block a number? It's a very minor feature.
2. Yes, there are more options to choose network, but choosing only 4/3/2G is still there.
3. About the three finger screenshot, yes aosp does it bad. But, you can use custom shortcut to take screenshots, even gestures like 2 fingers side swipe, which I use on Mdroid.
There's work around for almost everything, if you look properly. And if you like things simple, surely you'll miss out some things.
I feel bad, because I can no longer go back to a regular battery sized phone
I feel exactly the same
Xiaomi abandonned us
Luckily for me I gave my markw to my sister (she doesn't care about updates ) and got myself a mido ( redmi note 4)
But I miss my 4 prime it was the perfect size note 4 is too big. And battery life is slightly less with mido
I know how you feel about custom roms.
There is always a way to fix your problem with them but it demands time to find the solutions to bugs/ non-existent function ( custom rom is not for lazy person ?)
With miui you had almost everything in 1 package
( But miui also had so many problems)
