Hello, does anyone have face unlock working on Android Pie? I've added a trusted face, improved its recognition several times but system still offers only fingerprint or password unlock on the lock screen. Ty for the answers.

Mine is working , stock 9
Do you have a work email that security sensitive? If so, it probably blocks the face unlock option.

Nope, I've got just some IMAP accounts in Gmail app. Nothing special. I've removed trusted face, rebooted the system and added again, improved face
matching several times again, still no luck tho. I've also checked if Smart Lock is enabled in Trust agents. I'm on latest January 2019 update.
EDIT: I've just had an idea - what about VPN? I use L2TP/IPSEC to connect to work, maybe this can be security sensitive?
Having the same problem. it works on custom roms but not stock. I also lost the check for update button in settings.
So removing VPNs had no impact at all. I'm also on stock rom.

I'm on stock ROM with the December update, a few Magisk modules, EX Kernel 2.09, and that's it. It's working great with Android 9. If I swipe up before it recognizes my face them it won't unlock that is a normal built in feature.
You have the option available and selected for Face Unlock right? Obviously I don't because my work email dpesnt even let me set up Smart Unlock for face.

i hope you guys know that it doesnt automatically unlock it, itll scan for your face and then be unlocked but you still have to swype or something
Correct. At the bottom there'll be a lock symbol and it's show unlocked was the face is recognized right?

I used to have this problem back on the Nov. security patch, it was so frustrating. One little difference was that mine would work one time after setting it up, then completely disappear. No amount of recognition improvements made it come back. I gave up at that point and some time in December I reflashed the factory image for other reasons and randomly tried it again and it started working. Now that it is working, I use AutoInput by joaomgcd which basically bypasses the lock screen after your face is recognized eliminating the swipe that is normally required and makes it exponentially faster than stock. If you feel up to it and have a Google edition Pixel 2 XL, try unlocking the bootloader and reflashing the factory image. Keep me updated if you find another solution or mine works for you as I'm very curious what is causing this.

Which font are you using? It looks pretty slick
Is there a way to unlock the phone with faceunlock all the way? not just to swipe to unlock. Like in oneplus devices, you look at the phone and the phone unlocks itself not needing to swipe to unlock.
I'm rooted, so any suggestions?
L.E. - I've managed to do this with AutoInput, is on playtore. Working great!

If you hold down the icon for a couple seconds it will give you the option to hide it.
It shows up there because you must have used it. it will show back up after each time you use it.
I just leave it there and use the short cut from time to time to help eliminate burn in.

That's weird mined gives the option to hide it. I'm on the XT1095 pure edition latest 5.1 soak.
Lool yes this magically apeared on my x2 too.
5.1 has the option to hide it while touching and holding for a few sec. 5.0 doesnt have this option. People on 5.0 should do this
1. Change your date to more than a month back.
2. Now toggle invert colour option on and toggle it off right after
3. Now change the date back to todays date
Now you wont be seeing this option.
Cheers

If you're on 5.1 go to settings scroll down to accessibility once there scroll down to the bottom and you'll see display/ Color inversion.
Turn on on and off and then check your toggles from the drop down.
Mine went away. I forgot to toggle it on and off before I changed date back lpl

I got it too. Thought it was because I flashed the retde image two days back. Weird that we're all getting it
You can also get rid of it with adb (no root needed).
Just connect the phone and type in a terminal: adb shell pm clear com.android.systemui
(and then reboot the phone)
No update just appeared this morning. I have never used this setting and done nothing other than use my phone. It's straight stock. I wonder if it's a google services thing. Very Strange.
I got it randomly yesterday, too. If you aren't on 5.1, the setting the date back trick is the only way to make it go away.
Is there an app for the Nexus 6 that works like Finger Scanner? To my knowledge, Finger Security one only works on Galaxy series phones that have fingerprint scanners: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rickclephas.fingersecurity&hl=en.
I also tried App Lock but it doesn't appear compatible with the Nexus 6P scanner. It doesn't seem to detect it. Or at least it says that the manufacturer doesn't allow other apps to access it.
It'd be great to have. Right now, the Marshmallow implementation is very limited. Only a few apps (like Last Pass, for example) make use of it so this can add a new layer of protection. For example, on my Note5, I used it to lock the settings app so that only I could modify them.
** EDIT: I just saw a couple of related threads a few pages back. Hope there are new developments **

Just pick a lock type like pattern and you'll notice on the bottom of the pattern screen a fingerprint icon. Just use your fingerprint. The same thing happens when you lock an app. Choose pattern and then choose Facebook as an app to lock. Run Facebook and you'll see the fingerprint icon on the bottom of the pattern screen.

Me neither. Usually when you put your finger when you set the imprint, it will show green line circling the finger icon, but with me nothing happened even though using different finger. And this is the first time setting up.
What i found in internet people that get march update getting this kind of problem.

Well I can't say for sure but it sounds like a hardware problem to me since you already did a factory reset.

Hi rick,
Thank you for your response. I cannot find the solution besides send it back to the shop. I bought it from other country. So i might just ask refund for the convenience. Thought could be family of 6P lol*
So i do not want to keep using the powerbutton to turn the screen off/lock it, i am not rooted, is there a non root app to turn off the lockscreen? I tried a few apps from the app store but they all seem to conflict with the fingerprint scanner.

There is the old app that is not perfect but turn screen off without locking it. Link I'm searching for better solution too.

Nova Launcher is great for this. Also Microsoft's Arrow Launcher (but that has a tendency to drain battery and also it is hard to find an empty spot on screen to double-tap to sleep).
Finally i found it This app off screen without locking it on S7Edge - just have to set "SmartLock and Nexus Imprint" ON in settings.

If you use fingerprint lock (or maybe any secure lock, I'm not sure) on Marshmallow, apps that actually lock the screen will cause the OS to request a pin or password when you turn the screen back on.
The app that Golubev linked avoids that by implementing a work around, or kludge, depending on your point of view. Instead of actually locking the phone, it simply displays a black screen in immersive mode. It looks like the screen has shut off, but it doesn't really shut off until the screen times out about 10 seconds later.

Yes, they do. And if you press the power button thinking you're going to turn the screen on, it doesn't actually turn on, because you actually turned the screen off.

Turns out there's a way to do this built into the phone. And you can do it from any screen in any app, not just the home screen.
Go to Settings / Accessiblity / Dexterity and Interaction / Assistant menu
Tap on Edit. You'll see a bunch of options for things you can do on the screen. Icons you drag below the gray line won't be visible, items you drag above the line will be. Note that one of the options is "Lock screen." Make sure that's above the line.
The drawback is that you get a new blue circle on every screen, like so. (The circle can be moved anywhere on the screen, so it doesn't cover up important info.)

The benefit is that you can tap on that circle and execute any of the options you selected when you set it up. Including shutting the screen off without touching the power button, and without interfering with fingerprint lock.

FYI - I'm running T-mobile on the unlocked S8+. Didn't think that I would get tmo updates, but it actually worked (had to manual check for the update). Mine just finished installing the OTA.
Downloaded this last night. Was trying to use the camera and kept getting a "system UI" crash notice. Phone started overheating really bad, to the point it was hot to the touch. I immediately shut it off, and left it on the ground for awhile, in case it decided to pull a Note 7. Turned it back on after 30 min, and camera works, but the phone started heating up again. Turned it back off for awhile. Started it up again, closed all apps, and so far it's okay. If you download, please keep an eye on it.

try taking out the sd-card and try the camera again using the internal sd... then try putting the sd-card in again to see what happens..
I would hate to say, maybe u have to do a factory reset, and see if that helps.. last resort...
I took the update last night,no overheating or issues,think root for our device is a long ways away as well....so who is getting the note 8?hopefully that comes with the ability to root
Heads up. Bixby button mappers are blocked from working with this update.
The update broke the built in Digits app. Support had me download and install the Digits app from the Play Store and said that it is now required. Anyone else?
Edit: It was not the OTA that broke built in Digits support. Wiping cache and loging out and then back in to my account fixed the issue. It appears that timing of the OTA and me noticing that Digits was not working was coincidence..

I edited my post above. Turns out that it was not the OTA that broke Digits.
This update has wrecked my battery life. Android System is consistently beating out screen by a factor of 2x for the amount of battery utilization , even after several reboots. Disappointing that an official OTA has made me go from singing this phone's praises to hating it within a couple of days. And no, I don't want to do a factory reset and then spend hours setting everything back up, those days were supposed to be gone the moment they prevented us from rooting and installing custom roms.
Update: The issue I had was happening in any app, whenever I'd turn the phone to landscape mode. I did some research, and found someone in the Sprint S8 forum had the issue as well, and was able to fix it by simply changing the navigation button order, then switching it right back. Haven't had any issues with overheating since Saturday, but battery has been meh since the update.

I don't think it's the same as iPhone X gesture. But as seen in the video, it's kinda trash. Why use gesture to show the recent apps only? Still have to press home to go to homescreen. Still have to press back to go back. Still have the damn big black navigation bar. It just removes the recent button for nothing at all.
I looked into leaks and it seems to me that this is an alternative type of navigation, which you can enable in Settings. We will have to wait and see how it will be implemented. Hoping that it won't be default and the only type of navigation...

Can we install P DP2 via OTA ? Right now I'm back to bone stock 8.1 on the April patch.

Hopefully soon we can get our mitts on it...
This isn't gesture. OnePlus Beta has had full gesture like iPhone X for many months now that works like iPhone. Basically, most of it is the 3 essential movements. Swipe up from bottom on the left side, go back. Swipe up the middle from bottom, Home. Swipe right side from bottom, menu.
I really like that feature before I switched to VZW and had to get a new phone the Pixel 2 XL.
Another good feature with OnePlus implementation, all of your apps use the full screen in this mode. No bars/space at the bottom, you actually have a fully usable display now and the apps fit it properly.
Some of the mods in a few custom Roms that allow navbar height adjustment, do that for some apps, but the bar is still there. Even a few of the swipe nav features don't make the apps fit the full screen.
That is how a true swipe function should work, your screen is fully usable to the bottom. Apps like Waze fit better adding that little bit to the screen real estate. And I got used to the swiping very quickly, had a hard time going back to the regular bottons on the screen.
Not everything Apple does/implement is garbage. This is one that makes sense, gives you more screen real estate, and is easy to adapt your behavior to. I'm tired of the big fat top/bottom space of the Pixel. OnePlus 5T and the new 6 are really a good example of how a phone should be made, slim near zero bezels, more screen space, and simple gesture features.
We can now sign up to beta lads one question though.. I've opted in... Will i get the beta thru ota on dp1? Or do i need to roll back to 8.1 ?
You will need to roll back.
So did they realize they killed two recent app button features they just added one or two android versions ago....being double tap to switch apps quickly or long press to enter multiwindow?

No you don't...
I am updating without rolling back (Android P DP1)
If I upgrade to the beta will I be able to roll back to stock on a Verizon Pxl2?

Hmm that's odd according to Google you had to roll back good to know though
Quick question: I'm stock, rooted, with TWRP installed on DP1. I just got refreshed and got the DP2 ready to download. If I take the update, it would just unroot my phone and remove the custom recovery right? Or would I have to do unroot/etc manually before updating in order to prevent issues?

You don't have to.. just flash DP2, TWRP, Kernel and Root again

Latest magisk (appears to) work on dp2, then?
And I'm guessing download taimen-ppp2.180412.013-factory-546fdc1f.zip (https://developer.android.com/preview/download?authuser=2}, unzip, and deuce it?
Thanks!

Those features were not killed, just moved. To switch back to the most recent app just slide the pill quickly to the right from any screen - that's even easier than double tap. For multiwindow / split screen you swipe up briefly to get to the recent apps then each app has an icon in the center top that you can click to go into split screen or get app info.
