The Fingerprint Scanner SDK (originally posted at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202577) for Android has been released by Authentec. Currently there is only one device(Motorola Atrix) with a fingerprint scanner, but if you release your application with support for the fingerprint scanner (once you get the hang of it it is really not hard to use at all) then users of phones with fingerprint scanners will most likely be happier with your application.
Google has stated that Google Wallet will use fingerprints to unlock the payment system, so clearly more capable devices are on the way (source: http://www.qrcodepress.com/google-unveils-safety-measure-for-their-upcoming-mobile-wallet/853399/). Including fingerprint scanner capability in your application will also future-proof it as AuthenTec will have the same framework in place in other phones that will use their fingerprint scanner (Authentec is a leader in biometric security systems for lots of devices).
MotoDEV Article Guide:
http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/library/writing-fingerprint-enabled-apps
Read and Download the (simple) SDK at their site:
http://developers.authentec.com/
Example of SDK Usage (pulled from the SDK)At the time of this writing, it is my understanding that before you release the application you need to have them review it to meet their security specifications... They don't want you using this fingerprint scanner library and making their work look bad. It's a fair deal to me. I'm not sure if this is how they want it though - maybe that is just for Advanced SDK or maybe I'm just wrong (taken from their site) It appears right now that there is a mismatch between the developers and the makers of the authentec site... apparently there is no requirement for using the fingerprint scanner, so develop away!
I have an Atrix and the fingerprint scanner is amazing, once you use it you will never go back to patterns or pins. As such this guide was written by a user of the Atrix - future devices might not use the exact methodology but it should be nearly identical.
I have the Advanced SDK but I have not used any of the advanced functions yet. After using the code (And getting it to finally work) I have found some things that are not documented or are documented incorrectly in the SDK docs and I have come here to post items that will save you great time. If you find others I hope to hear about them so I can add it to the list - I'll even credit you (maybe with a post number so you can score some thanks points!)
The swipe fingerprint screen won't show up - but I'm getting a result (mine was always 14)
AM2 (Authentec fingerprint framework - there are a lot of unsubscribed terms in the documentation so just go with me here) requires Internet Permission (perhaps to verify the key for the advanced SDK, it might not be done locally - without a key advanced SDK functions will not load). If you don't, all uses of the tsm.jar will not work. Not listed at all in documentation
AM2ClientLibraryLoaded() doesn't work with the code they provide!?
You must Instantiate Authentec.AM2ClientLibraryLoaded() - SDK Docs shows as static but it is not used in the example program they give.
It goes into verification but does not show anything and locks up the fingerprint sensor.
Do not change the 'screen' in the examples of sScreen... I thought that was the title of the window that would appear, but apparently those strings are built into it... it would work better as static fields passed as integers. For values look at the next answer.
What can I use for sScreen (viaGfxScreen(string))?
The documentation says nothing of this but these are different types of verification screens. There is fingerprint scanning only and then there is the unlock style one where you also get the PIN. I'm guessing a modifed version of this is how the lock screen works.
"lap-verify" is fingerprint and PIN
"get-app-secret" is fingerprint only - hit and miss right now... will update when I get it perfected
Why does it lock up?
Only 1 app at a time can access the fingerprint scanner. Motoblur seems to access it occasionally and I think that's why it died on the Atrix's Froyo 1.8.3. It seems mostly fixed but as you develop you will most likely lock it up as you debug. Having a wrong sScreen variable will kill your FP scanner. If it locks in your app you will lose the ability to unlock the device with the FP scanner.
Use DDMS to kill com.authentec.TrueSuiteMobile and the lock will work again. This might work on 1.8.3 but I'm not sure it works that way. If the application exits with the home button, it seems to also lock it up. I'm looking into a way to avoid this..
I can't register my application, it's failing with code 6 - (System Error)
I encountered this one myself when using my Api key for com.mgamerzproductions.gibbertalk - I changed it to com.mgamerzproductions.gibbertalk.testing and it no longer worked. They did tell me this in the email that it is only for one package - so make sure you choose wisely, or bribe the people giving out the API keys to give you another one. I wish it was more specific (API_KEY_NOT_AUTHENTIC or something)
I'm still having problems. What can I do?
You can use these tags for debugging in logcat:
AMJNI (AuthenTec Mobile - permissions - server)
TrueMobileSuite (some gfx log info - swipe fingerprint screen)
AndroidRuntime (will tell you crash related things, as debugging for errors will produce too much to read at once)
Any other things would be greatly appreciated for all of use Developers so speak up if you have something I don't have listed and I'll add it.
If you want to use the encrypted storage provided by the framework you'll need to apply for the Advanced SDK. You have to give them a description of your app, and it has to be security related (obviously that's the whole point of the fingerprint scanner and they don't want you to abuse it).
If you like the guide, and you are on MotoDev, I wouldn't mind a kudos in the contest http://community.developer.motorola...print-Enabled-Apps-quot-article-in/td-p/17206

Reserved for OP at a later date
Pictures of my use right now (more later)
Spoke to OP, moved to main Android development, as this would be of more interest to the development community in general, as I'm sure other phones will be using fingerprint scanning (and this sdk) in the near future.

This should not cause the system to lock up; it should cause your app to delay briefly and either continue with your request or return to you with an error. If you can duplicate some other result reliably, please share details.

The eclipse projects for these examples are very simple -- with the exception of the .project you have everything you need in the example directories. Worst case is you can create a new Android project and replace its manifest, sources and resources with those provided by the examples. Then point the build path at your tsm.jar and you'll be ready to go.

What I meant was that if an app is asking for the fingerprint reader (not the app entirely, but actively asking for the FP reader scan), and motorola does something in the background with the FP scanner (on atrix), it can lock it up. This was heavily apparent on Atrix 1.8.3 but in the new update it seems to have been mostly fixed.
Errors: If you bring up the window with anything but lap-verify or get-app-secret, the window will lock up (and i think fingerprint reader will lock up as well - if you return to the lockscreen you'll see it never finishes initializing it) I can attempt to reproduce this error but I want to finish some development I am doing now.
heilpern said:
com.authentec.TrueSuiteMobile drives the UI, directly or indirectly depending on exactly what's going on (indirectly in the case of the lock screen, for example). If this package is killed it will restart with the next fingerprint operation however it will disrupt any currently active verification attempt (causing the requesting app to receive an error -- probably the USER_CANCELED error).

I never really kill it except if it locks up. Haven't tested what it returns (perhaps null)
heilpern said:
Here's something you can do to experiment if you're using StoreCredential -- swipe one of your existing fingers (the index fingers) and you'll store data to that particular finger. Swipe a different finger (multiple times as prompted) and eventually (after three swipes if all goes well) you'll be asked which finger you just enrolled (and your credential will be stored to that finger). This new finger can be used for subsequent Store Credential requests (without the automatic training session) and to release data stored with Get Secret... but only the index fingers can be used to unlock the Atrix.

Yeah, in the original thread I had that image posted... It's in the framework but it never was used... I'm not sure if it was there for this purpose or was just cancelled at the end because it was incredibly confusing... I don't get why you would need all those credentials. It's not like your phone will get passed around that much. You swipe new fingers just like you would if you were registering a finger, then you choose the finger... but the accuracy of the 'pick a finger' one is pretty bad.
Would love to see a test apk where we can try this out...
Nothing available right now?
My application works with the FP scanner... its not done yet though.
These are the included APK's that are the code samples they use:
Download tsm-apk-pack.zip from Host-A
Will it support HTC Desire HD? It won't right?
The fingerprint scanner is a hardware device, just like a laptop fingerprint reader. Its not touchscreen, unfortunately.

I agree that a more telling error code would be a better option. Error 6 is eAM_STATUS_ACCESS_ERROR but that value can be returned for other problems as well.
Note that if a generic API key is needed, TSM-0E08085A-1210171A-001A7465-632E7473 can be used if you name your package com.authentec.tsmgetsecret. You cannot post that package to the Market however if you want a means of creating a test APK with a neutral package name that package/key combination will work.
Has AuthenTec claimed that package name on the market...?
they probably should or someone might take that package...

Hi . question: is it possible to use fingerprint senzor as wake up function? My button is very very hard to push, this function would be great....
Hello. I'm working on a custom device that is not on the market yet, and I am having issues getting it to work with Google Play. I have root access, so I was able to sideload GooglePlay.apk and GoogleServicesFramework.apk. However, I am forced to use Market Helper in order to download apps. I would like to bake in compatibility to the ROM itself, but am having issues.
I've tried modifying the build.prop to have dummy values for ro.product.{model,device,manufacturer}, as well as ro.hardware and ro.com.google.clientidbase. I feel like I'm close, but the device still fails to be accepted by Play without marker helper.
Any hints or advice are tremendously appreciated!
Sorry, can't help you with the problem.
But I am really interested in your custom device. Could you please tell us more about it?
Cool.
For those who encounter a similar problem, I will post the answer. Credit to (xkcd: Wisdom of the Ancients) for the idea.
edit: the policy of not posting outside links is really annoying. All links have the base: http: slash slash developer dot android dotcom , just add the relevant url and glue it together.
Anyway, here goes. Turns out the build.prop was not the limiting factor.
Explanation of the overall process:
- Developers create an app, and list certain features it depends on in the manifest.xml file located in the root of the apk. ( /guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html)
- When the Play Store is opened, a call is made to getSystemAvailableFeatures()
- This call is handled by an internal app called PackageManager - (/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html)
-This app looks in /system/etc/permissions and parses the xml files to determine what hardware and software features the phone has. it then sends this list back to the play store. - see( /guide/practices/compatibility.html) and ( /google/play/filters.html )
- The play store then filters the apps, as per the links above.
How to modify this:
- What I’ve done is taken the files from /system/etc/permissions on a galaxy S2 Skyrocket (my personal device), and copied in all of them, without overwriting the already existing files. Now, google play works and allows the download of the same subset of apps as on the Skyrocket.
For those wondering how to include these files at compile time, here is the answer:

You could simply not use it, by going to settings under the security tab you can choose not to use Face recognition. If in doubt you can simply use the Iris Scanner, which i can guarantee that no one is going to fool that. Also the new update we've got, using a picture to unlock the phone is not as easy but then again, you could simply choose not to use it or you can choose to use Iris Scanner or disable all of them together and use your fingerprint. Face Recognition is not mandatory and is disabled by default unless you choose to enable it.

You completely missed the point. I never said anything about me using the feature. I want to block it company wide so people who are are ignorant of the issues with face recognition cannot use it and pose a security risk.

Hi @jeredh,
Your thread in "Themes, Apps, and Mods" quoted below, is not in the correct section. So, you can continue the discussion in the current thread (Q&A).

I started a thread in Q&A several days ago, but I think it was in the wrong forum and should be here instead.
I'm trying to come up with a script that I can use to push out to all S8/S8+ devices in our corporate environment via MDM that will disable only the facial recognition part of smartlock. Unfortunately I do not have access to a S8/S8+ to dig into. Would anyone be willing to lend a hand on this?

Hello Everyone
This is my first post to this site, so I'd firstly like to extend a hearty "hello" to you all and a big thank you for taking the time to read my post.
As the title suggests, I'm looking for a means to enable GPS remotely, on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge using Tasker. I never have GPS on because I rearely (if ever) need it, and it saves battery; but this doesn't help me if I lose my phone, or if its stolen. In order for Google's 'Find my Device' or 'Lookout' to find my phone with any degree of success, GPS needs to be on. But, I won't be able to do this if I don't have my phone.
I'm looking for a means to enable this feature remotely using Tasker. I don't mind what the trigger is i.e. e-mail to my account with a specific subject line, a text from another phone etc. Just so long as I can enable it remotely. I should point out however that my phone is not rooted as yet, however I am happy to do this if it is necessary.
Prior to posting here, I made sure to research into the issue, and a few posts suggested using an app called 'Secure Settings' in conjunction with Taskers 'Run Shell' feature, and the following commands to enable GPS:
Code:
settings put secure location_providers_allowed +gps
settings put secure location_providers_allowed +network
Before using the Secure Settings app, Tasker wouldn't let me do this, stating that the ability to do this had been disabled from an earlier Android version, but after installing it and selecting the option to allow secure access to GPS, it then allowed me to do it. However, that being said, the commands don't do anything, and do not enable GPS on my phone.
I don't suppose anyone here knows how to achieve what I'm looking to do, and could provide some basic step-by-step instructions on how to achieve it? I would certainly be very grateful.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post and I appreciate any and all feedback you may have.
All the best,
Malachor.
I Came across an interesting YouTube video(actually 2 videos of the same phone) of a way to remove frp from a Google Nexus running Nougat 7.0/7.1.1 using Termux and terminal emulator along with Dirtycow and Gam6-7.1.1 apk files. The video itself is in Portuguese according to YouTube auto translate, but with careful study and pausing its pretty straight forward. Now the ZTE Blade Z max z982 is no Nexus for sure but being this is a tutorial using Termux apk and terminal emulator apk to remove Google frp 7.0-7.1.1. (Blade Z Max comes out of box with 7.1.1.) I figured I'd give it a shot after multiple attempts to access without any computer as the everyday device user has basic computer knowledge and relies on step by step video tutorial to work into their device. Now this does require having the Z982 bypass the setup wizard which I'm sure if you have been searching for a way back into your device after forgetting your email password or if you bought second hand (like myself) and the previous owner incorrectly reset the device before selling you probably already know this method. If not a simple YouTube search will turn up results as to how to do that. So with all necessary downloaded files I gave it a shot. Worked flawlessly even let me install GAM6.apk.Worked well up until the part where he hit the disable option on Google Account Manager (16:48 in video) 3 times and the icon changed to a sdcard icon and read "com.google.android.gsf.login". Now I think this guy is pretty clever with this method but I'm clueless as to how he was able to do exactly what he did at that point in the video. I am not sure if this has been fixed by a patch. I am patched at August 1 2017. Also it dosent clarify the chipset but am quite sure the Nexus runs Qualcomm and not MTK, as does the Blade. I translated the page to read a few comments and the main issue seemed to be the same issue I'm facing. I do know that "com.google.android.gsf.login" is the key step in the list of activities that GAM performs upon startup that is blocked until previous email and password are provided and permissions are granted to that particular activity. I was hoping that a more experienced member or user familiar with system level apps and privileges could make sense of what exactly he has done in the video as I am a intermediate user and I am still learning Android systems and using developer tools. If anyone has any knowledge with these core level apps and could possibly figure out a work around or contribute to what he has done with the Nexus phone I'm positive this would be very helpful to Z982 owners and Nougat users across all devices as I'm sure with this method the phone is 95% the of the way through a successful "no computer needed" bypass method. This is by no means a walk in the park for the everyday user and will require some knowledge and a bit of research to complete the tutorial for those who may come upon this post and decide to try. I do know of methods to bypass this issue but have dedicated my time and research to finding a handset method only as this would help many z982 owners immensely. This is intended for the rightful owners of this device and all devices applied who may have forgotten their gmail password or for those who purchased second hand or obtained legally and the previous owner incorrectly reset the device and can't be contacted. This is NOT intended for the use by thieves who obtain phones through deceptive measures. I do not condone any illegal activity and may karma find you when you least expect it for those who partake in such activities! The video is pretty lengthy not in English and be prepared to use the pause button numerous times unless your advanced and are familiar with Termux and terminal commands. Also using the Blade Z Max meant a few small steps had to be changed in order to get the files to copy to Termux. For this I suggest using the storage tab in settings/phone/used space/other and hit explore and find download folder which will allow you to copy gam6.apk and Dirtycow fIle(unzip first) into Termux. Hopefully we will find a solution to this problem for this device for those who have no or limited computer access or knowledge of flashing and firehose files and more advanced removal methods. I'll keep hunting and researching and will update upon discovery of a successful method. Links are posted below.

You should do your research more thoroughly before promoting methods. None of those files (except for the frp-bypass.apk) are rootjunky's, and the method isn't his either. I discovered the dirtycow method, and I released it for free on YouTube for everybody to use as they wish and the only thing I asked in return was the credit for finding it. This is just clear evidence that I should have branded the method and charged everybody instead.
Also please PM me the URL for both of the videos you found on YouTube in other languages, guarantee they're just reuploads of my content and I'd like to copyright strike them.
The post was meant to possibly spark ideas and gain input on a method that would cover all devices. All of us in the Android community thank you for your Discovery and contribution of the dirty cow method we really do.. But excuse and forgive me for coming across one person's video of your hijacked method before finding you or your original method first! I'm trying to help people out and if my failed attempt at trying to bypass what has now become a 6 months long frp project, generates and Sparks a new idea at attacking and approaching this issue, then it's progress logged! I can unlock and bypass it in less then 10 seconds and have dedicated my device and purposely hard reset it to try and find a way for the public who can't afford the tools I have at my disposal. The files I came across were all on this guy's YouTube. I'm passing along info not performing research for a 6th grade science project let alone tracking down the founder of the method being used. But now that I'm informed and armed with this new information I'll be sure to mention you any time I refer to the dirty cow method, anywhere in the online community. I'll gladly pm you the links.
Have to figured this out yet and found a solution for the ZTE?
Uniandroidtool can do it, it costs $50 but it's worth it. It can bypass FRP on many phones. I would do it for you but remote support is not currently available.

Well here ya guys go, a free bypass method! Even more startling, seems like it's discovered by a 10 year old..
Nice work kid!
By the way, just a heads up, the kid goes pretty fast, but he walks you thru all the steps so watch carefully.
I verified it works, good luck.

Method Failed
This failed for me. I can get the credentials moved over but when I go through the setup the lock is still there. I figured out that the credentials are copied over, a new user is being created in my case, and the original account is still there. . I can get to settings but I cannot enable developer move because is says I'm not the primary user. Maybe I missed a crucial step but I don't know what.
