Fingerprint ID not in settings [mate 8 nxt-al10C00B172]

Hello everyone. I just purchased a used mate 8 nxt-al10 for $100 Cad . The screen is shattered other than that it works great. The "fingerprint ID" isn't anywhere in the settings so I can't use the scanner. Any suggestions? Could it be the drop that broke the screen dislodged the ribbon cable for the scanner?
Any help would be awesome!
Thanks

u can try and do a factory reset, see if that helps. other than that, anything is possible @internal damage...

I tried the factory reset and it still does not show up then I opened up the phone and the connector seems fine. Not sure what to do now. Maybe I should flash the international rom and see if that works?

Nope the cable looks to be in perfect shape. I'll post some pictures when I can but it looks good under the hood. Does your mate 8 have a small line on the scanner where it looks to be darker on the bottom?
Also random question is there a guide for flashing the international Rom with steps for beginners? Last time I rooted a phone was my nexus 5 3 years ago.

OK so I'm officially running kangvip slim b180.... And still no fingerprint ID in settings!!! I'm going to assume it's a hardware issue and order a new scanner. If anyone has any better ideas let me know.
Thanks !

Where do you get scanner from as mine has stopped working but a bit reluctant to send it back to China even though they was in touch straight away

Hello I used this website to order it. I haven't received it yet but it seems like a reliable source for parts.
Also when yours stopped working did it not show up in your settings anymore?? Knowing that would be a big help.
Thanks!

Huawei Mate 8 kills protected and "ignore battery optimization" apps

Hi,
The rom is B320 rooted.
It has been now 3 time that it killed the Alarm Clock Xtreme which is both selected as a protected app and as an app that can ignore battery optimization. this is really annoying ! it is making my phone totally useless and unreliable.
This also happens to other apps like Gmail , instant messaging apps.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Please help

Same here. Anyone?

I've reported this issue some days ago.

As basimzanaty mentioned, make them "system-apps". Titanium Backup Pro got this option, but you can do it manually with a root file-explorer.

Facing the same issue , Any suggestion for a non rooted device.

Will it really damage or was that a joke

It was a joke but it could really damage

There is no one anywhere that will say its the 100% safe to use mod like this. Not even the tech support from the manufacturer itself. If that would be 100% safe for the speaker or the phone itself, it would have it implemented. The sound is, how to say, its not real stereo, it separates some higher frequencies to call speaker and lower to phone speaker. You can hear the difference. I tested it with some songs that have moving stereo sound to make sure.

I personally leave songs playing over night but it does not harm my speaker
100% safe from my side
you test and use it...... your own way

Any way of getting true stereo separated sound and not only separated by some frequencies?

Wow

Way to keep an old thread alive. Go here https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/themes-apps/mod-surround-sound-testers-t3252659 for a different kind of sound. But what you're asking, no, it's not possible. The earphone speaker is far less powerful than the lower speaker, so it wouldn't be able to play all the frequencies and it would also have to play them at a lower volume to avoid distortions.

[Q] Bluetooth always visible

Hello, I have an FRD-L09C432B394 with EMUI 5.01
I have a smartwatch so I need to keep the Bluetooth always on, but I result always visible to nearby devices! O configured visibility and timeouts in Bluetooth settings but it's ineffective.
So while I'm on the train I receive continue association request from kids around.
Someone else found this trouble or have a solution?

I'm on an L14 and have not experienced this problem. Would you mind posting a screenshot of your Bluetooth settings page?

This is my situation, and in the meantime I'm visible! I'm checking from various devices...

What's the timeout for BT visibility?

It's 2 minutes, the shortest one.

I do not have a reason why your Bluetooth would constantly stay on. Have you tried a factory reset? Are you rooted? I'm really just talking stabs in the dark - I'm clueless.
Also, sorry for taking so long to reply.
Sent from my Redmi 4X using XDA Labs

My LG Gwatch R stays paired with Bluetooth on, but I don't need it to always be visible, it just auto pairs as it should.
I don't see any reason why your pebble doesn't do this as well.

Friend in headphones is normal the problem is only in the speaker and acontence in all notifications, videos, musics. The sound starts very well and lowers the volume alone even though the volume bar is at the maximum. Version Firmware 8.0.0.130 c432

Did you rebrand? I did the rebrand of BKL-AL20 for BKL-L09 I saw that some more people are with the bug also in the reddit forum. I am very angry with the device.

I didn't rebrand the device, I bought it at official store.
Rebrand could be the cause with yours sounds issues tho. The people at Reddit with this issue rebrand its phone?

Works well on speaker.
On headphones, it reduces the volume initially to save your ear from sudden loud audio.
You can increase if you want.
May be you need to tweak the sound mixer file for loud audio as yo debranded your phone but it works well for normal EU Version phone.

Same problem after rebranding... I didn't get a solution for now. Rebranded back to al00 and still have the problem
