I can't unlock my S7 with fingerprint when I lock the device with an app like "Screen off and lock". When i lock the device with the power button unlocking with my fingerprint works fine. When i use an app to lock the phone i have always to enter my pin. Any solutions?
It should work. Maybe the developer is calling an old method or something like it.
I use the built in lock shortcut from nova launcher and fingerprint works like it should.
Sent from my SM-G930F using XDA-Developers mobile app
I tried various apps. None of them worked.

Pls let me know if you find a solution to this.
You can try this app - Screen Lock and enable its experimental function - "Fix fingerprint unlock not work".

Great! Really works!
Great! Really works smoothly on my Galaxy s8+ Oreo rom (disables that stupid fingerprint limitation ) . Many many thanks.
Is there any possibility to use Fingerprint Sensor for taking selfie??? please help.
You can't. Unless someone eventually wants to mess with that kind of stuff and builds it into a ROM
Yes you can on android-O Fingerprint Gesture app let you take selfie using fingerprint sensor in any camera app.
On Reserution remix or some other rom my friend had a feature to turn on and unlock phone with their fingerprint
i was wondering how i might be able to achieve this or what app has this feature
I am embarrased to ask this question 'cos I have been looking around the threads for a big while but couldn't find one. The interim solution is Nova launcher double tap function. Please kindly advise.
Note: My phone is running on Oreo.
Thanks!
This should be your ticket. Haven't tested myself since I got an S8 but worked on my previous phone.

Thank you! How about touch the fingerprint scanner to sleep without rooting, is it possible?
we all know that after installing twrp + multidisableb samsung and rooting samsung, all fingerprint lock, pattern, face lock are disabled, this must be due to samsung???
Can anyone tell me if there is a solution to this? , for example a fingerprint and face replacement from a third party or how to re-enable samsung device encryption??.
