Turn Finger print vibration back on. - OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers

Hey guys after the new updates I noticed the finger vibrate when unlocking the phone is gone now. Is there a way to turn the back on? I'm noticing now that I'm unlocking my phone without even knowing when taking it out my pocket. before I would feel the vibration and lock it back.

No way

The only current way is with custom ROMs or Xposed+Gravity Box.

Xposed beta 3 for Oreo was released last week, if I remember correctly. Same for GravityBox beta.

I had it installed before but I wasn't really using it like that so I removed it.

The other option would be to enable vibration on touch, but it will also enable vibration for back and recent buttons.

[Q] Touch detected incorrectly right after power on

This has been happening since I remember getting the device. About 3/5 times when I bring my device out of standby and I go to enter my pattern the touch is off. I have "show touches" enabled in developer options to verify this.
When I put my finger on the top left dot of the 3X3 pattern, which is around the middle-left of the screen, it is detecting that I'm touching the device all the way in the top left corner. If I drag my finger around the screen, the touch is offset. If I remove my finger from the screen and place it back on the screen, then it is properly detected.
I didn't run on stock for very long, maybe an hour or two, before I rooted and flashed AOKP. Right now I'm on WhiteHawkx's unnoficial AOKP nightly and Franco's Kernel (r122).
My plan is to flash back to stock and see if it still happens then. But currently I have a really busy week ahead and don't have time so looking for insight.
Anyone else experience something like this?
No one? So I guess I should call Google for a warranty exchange?

Try recalibrating the touch screen, I think there's an option in settings.

I posted in that thread a while ago about this issue and no one confirmed. Thanks for your reply. I'm going to go back to stock this weekend and run it for a couple days to verify.

Let me know your results. If it persists, I might have to send mine back.
I'm on stock ROM. I have this issue too, when I power on and drag to unlock, I get a delayed mismatched response. I have to power off then back on again.
It started this recently, so might be app related.

Turn on " show touches" in developer options to help verify if you the save thing happening.
I don't have to reboot mine but I have to lift finger of screen and put back on to get it to properly detect where the touch should be.

So just as a follow up I reverted to stock for 5 days and didn't see this issue. Flashed back to AOKP and Franco kernel and now it's happening randomly when I go to hang up a call. I tap on the red hang up bar and it detects the touch in the top left corner.
I called Google play support but since I didn't buy my device from them they directed me to lg.
I'm starting to think it's my screen protector.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
lol, I had insensitivity issues on the bottom of the screen way back, I use a displayed pin pad on lockscreen so I just tap a certain spot to unlock, I sometimes wonder why the digitizer register incorrectly.
flashing a different kernel helped, I'm using motleys.
Have had this problem since launch, im on stock rooted, maybe its a certain app?
If anyone wants to compare their apps with me to find a similar problem, shoot me a pm

New message wake

I may be missing it, but does anybody see an option that won't wake the screen when a new message comes in?

Yeah you need to have a custom room or xposed mod to get the setting back.

For SMS/MMS, I installed Textra and turned off the native messaging app. Textra allows you to not wake up the screen in settings. Not exactly a fix, but I'm liking the app so far.

Touch screen after unlock

I am having an issue where the touch screen seems to be unresponsive for a short time after unlock. For instance, if I unlock the phone via fingerprint, pattern, or slide the first touch doesn't respond and I have to tap whatever app or item I am trying to use. I'm using Cataclysm ROM with the most recent ElementalX kernel. Maybe it's a ROM/Kernel thing and I should try stock but just wanted to ask here.

It does sound like a ROM/Kernel issue to me. I would suggest NANDROID and test stock.

So I turned on "Show Touches" in developer settings so I could see if my touches were registering and I have discovered that sometimes when I unlock the phone there is a touch dot on the screen like something is registering a touch. When I tap the screen it goes away but doesn't open the app I tapped. It then disappears and taking the app again works. Wonder wth is going on. I do have a screen protector on. Wonder if it is that.

Is the touch spot in the same location every time? I have not actually ever heard of a screen protector doing that, but anything is possible.

Just got my rma device and it's still happening. So it has to be a kernel issue or an app. I'm on the latest stock 6.0.1 security update. Need to find the stock kernel.

Pretty sure I've figured out the cuplrit. Seems as though the double tap to wake gesture for elementalx is causing it. If you touch the screen when locked it holds on to that touch waiting for the second touch. Turned it off and haven't had it since going on two hours.

Looks like it hasn't been completely fixed but it helps. I've only had it happen a few times since then. Still need a fix.

There won't be a fix to double tap to wake. How it behaves, whether it works or has issues, is due to Google's code. Flar2 just enables the option for the user in ElementalX.
Edit: only thing I could suggest is try flar2's Wake gestures app or stick with Sweep2Wake.

LG G6 Vibration stopped.

I seemed to have this issue with an old V10 but I thought maybe after 2 years the motor just got old. This phone is still new and I have lost all vibration function. Has this happened to anyone else yet or does anyone know if there is something I can do to confirm a defect/fix?
Have you used Smart Doctor app to diagnose and see if it picks up anything?

I'm looking for that app and only finding things for human health...do you know the company name?
Are your sure it's not an setting or something software related? If a factory reset does not resolve then you likely have an hardware problem. I had a hardware issue on my G5 like that. Motor didn't work for weeks, then one day I dropped it worked fine ever since.

Lucky you. I wish mine breaks I hate the vibrator in Android phones. They all feel so cheap. I want it gone when unlocking the phone too but I can't. It makes the phone feel cheaper than it looks with its poor vibrator feel (and sound).
Happened to me last night, LG G600S

Yes. Or at least I believe so as when battery saver engages the finger print sensor also stops providing vibration feedback.

launch lg g6 (LG-H871 rev 1.0) - opening weekend. Vibrate function completely died yesterday.
Using vibrate app to test - no results on manual press. shaking the phone yielded no results. Gonna get a replacement.
Glad to know Im not the only one getting this issue
Did you manage to find a solution? Mine just started doing the same. Vibration stopped, checked with vibration test apps, booted in safe mode, factory reset and nothing. I'd rather not send the phone for repair and warranty is out of the question.
Damn I'm not happy to see this thread. Mine seemed to have stopped today. Not sure why or how. I'm gonna have to do some digging and see what's going on
Mine just started the same thing. No vibration at all!
Same issue here. Vibration stopped working, no way to get it to work again.
Mine also has stopped. No feedback from the keyboard, fingerprint sensor or vibration from calls/texts.
I plan on reaching out to LG today to see what I can figure out.
Anybody have any luck on finding a fix yet?
Can you guys please also share your model number- European, US, single or dual sim, bootloader unlocked or not, rooted or not, any particular action after which vibration stopped working.
Thanks in advance.
I know that this is really going to help anyone, but someone on Reddit had the same problem, then it started working again.

Disable the fingerprint scanner

I am supposed to be getting my 6T within the next day or so. After I root it, if I want to disable the fingerprint scanner, is that a native feature in Oxygen? If not, is there a root level app or module that will allow us to turn the scanner on and off?
