Lon L-29 Oreo 370 update Face unlock - Huawei Mate 9 Pro Questions & Answers

HI.
Although the change log clearly states that the face unlock is activated with the 370 update , it is not working .When hitting the face unlock option (which now appears...), it leads to the 3 old options : Pattern, Face , Password.
Is someone is facing the same bug?
Thank you.

Working perfect here. It's amazingly responsive, even in the dark. I forget about it sometimes and the phone unlocks quicker than I can place my thumb on the sensor.
It makes me enter my pattern before letting me in to that option. Do you have a pattern set?

Maybe it's the same as with the fingerprint unlock, where you need to have a password, PIN or pattern set before you can enroll you fingerprints?

Face unlock
Exactly.

Fingerprint issues

How do you get the phone to recognize youe fingerprint? It is so annoying how it keep failing to recognize the fingerprint and asks to enter the code or pattern.

Go to Settings -> Security -> Nexus Imprint. Follow on screen instructions to register your fingerprints (up to 5).
I believe there is a setting to not have to input a code every time, check to see if that is your issue. I only have to enter a pin after a reboot, then just the fingerprint unlocks the phone.

I didn't explain myself well I guess. It happens to not recognize the fingerprint and then asks for pattern/code. It is annoying.
First I would say to clean it well. Second i would suggest you reset the print and add extra sets too. Also what ROM, firmware ect are you running? I have had flawless experiences with my sensor across various ROMs. I do a full set scan for 4 fingers. My 2 pointers and my 2 middles as well as another scan set for odd positions. This ensures no matter what I'm holding or position my phone's in it will be easily unlocked.

Running chroma 2/3 build with february firmware but I don't think that's the issue. I will try to register it again. Thanks.

I've had the same problem since the last week after updating a resurrection remix version. I think it's been doing something weird, but it'll unlock normal in the car and stuff so I don't know. Seems like when I put my finger on the sensor it will wake the device and want me to enter a PIN. If I put an unregistered finger on the sensor it won't wake it it'll stay black screen. It might be something to do with when you are at home with smart unlock. Hmmm....

I thought it could be the smart unlock and removed it but still same thing. Might have to go all stock and test it again. I had another nexus 6P before and that one you get unlocked really fast without any issues.
Edit: Found the issue. Double tap to lock ftom Nova was forcing the device to request pattern or pin.

Security Unlock Issue

I have a security issue, unless its me being silly.
I am fully stock unrooted.
I have never had any problem until today and I realised my phone unlocked without a pass code or finger print, I know this because I always wear rubber gloves and have to type the pin in to get into my phone, I do this day in day out and today after several unlocks it stopped asking for the pin.
I have uploaded a video showing what happens
It funny though because when I click the lock on the bottom of the unlock screen it prompts me for a pin or finger print, but if I don't touch the lock, just a simple swipe unlocks it.
Is there something I have pressed by accident which causes this?

Check your smart lock settings. Is anything enabled?

I can't replicate the issue here - not sure what would cause this other than the smart bluetooth lock as suggested by the above poster.

I haven't changed anything, I have cleaned the finger print sensor, no new apps installed.
Weird
Put it on charge and it's fixed it's self!

Unlock with finger print on Marshmallow

Guys one noob question how can i unlock the device only with finger print? On oxygen2.2.1 I have that option available and on CM based ROMs just can't find it,tanks.
What do you mean with only FP? It's a safety feature to still be able to use on screen pattern since the FP sensor has a tendency to stop working from time to time under CM13 telling you the hardware is missing. Only being able to login using FP would lock you out of your phone in those moments. Also first time unlock after reboot requires patter unlock to verify it's you and not just a 3d rubber print out of your finger print. ?
The problemas was an APP called screen lock that I always use,after uninstalled it everything works fine now,thanks

How Do I Increase The Number Of Fingerprint Attempts

By default we have 5 attempts, how do I increase that? Because many times it does not recognise my fingerprint and I've come to the last attempt many times. Luckily it recognized my fingerprint on the last try. What would happen if all attempts were used? I don't want to try since I am travelling and don't want to lock myself out if that is what happens.
You can not lock the device on this way... Fingerprint works with PIN or password lock.
When you can not unlock with fingerprint, unlock it with PIN or password, delete that fingerprint ID and make new one (or two different of both hands) in optimal condition.
In my case fingerprint work fine, 99% at first attempt...

Bypassing Fingerprintsensor bug?

Hi everyone,
I notice that I can bypass my fingerprintsensor with tapping 3 times with the wrong finger on it and after the third time, the phone is unlocked.
I am on the last stock oxygenOS.
Does somebody else have this bug?
No.
No.
Yes I found that since the 1st day.
Now I tried twice with with a unregistered finger with the 3rd try another unregistered finger and it is unlocked!!!!
not all the time.

Doesn't happen to me. Have you got a pattern enabled?
After 3 failed finger print attempts the phone prompts for a pattern.
After testing, I was shocked to see that this worked on my phone...but after a little testing, it only unlocks on the third attempt when the phone has a smartlock device connected and doesn't require a PIN anyways.
If I turn Bluetooth off, the third wrong finger button press simply turns on the screen and asks for my PIN.

Smartlock was the key here!
I turned trusted places "home" off and on the 3rd try asked for the pin code.
So basically if I'm in trusted places or connected to a trusted device after 3 consecutive failed fingerprints it will open my phone without pin code

I think that's the point of smart Lock... ? So you don't have to unlock even with FP. Just swipe up and it should unlock...
That is interesting. Would only work around safety devices/places?
