ive set the face unlock to Direct Unlock but it keeps telling me to slide to unlock. the direct unlock worked for a few hours. i dont know what changed or if any of you guys have the same problem.
Go to settings-security-face unlock- see if direct unlock I selected or not

Same here. It's hit or miss. Very inconsistent. No idea why it does that.

Hi guys,
I've recently realised that after I receive a phone call, the phone automatically gets unlocked after the call has ended.
Is there any setting to prevent this?
I am so used to stuffing the phone back into my pocket and do not wish to inadvertently butt dial someone or launch apps while the phone is sitting unlocked in my pocket.
Hope you guys can help on this.
i dont know what kind a security lock you have, if its a pin it shouldn't, thinking about this, im sure i have to put my pin code to access the phone during and after a call otherwise this would be a security loophole.

I'm just using the standard Slide to unlock setting.

Slide to unlock is pretty useless without security. It even let's you use the notification area so I doubt it would fully prevent pocket dialling.
Anyway, doesn't surprise me.

Umm, yes I know that it doesn't offer much security but I don't want to punch in a password or use the camera security each time I want to access my phone.
The lock screen doesn't automatically lock after a call without security. Power button to turn off the screen does. So after a call, turn off the screen.

Alrighty then. Thanks
Per this patch note http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/lg-v10-update/?skiptag=1 looks like Verizon will be getting marshmallow on their LG V10 beginning today. Will other carriers follow? I have reached out to T-Mobile for more information on the progress of theirs.

fingerprint scanner borked after update?
scanner doesn't unlock phone unless phone was locked by the timer..? if i turn off the screen or close it with the power button, it won't unlock with the finger print scanner... anyone else? (i've dropped and readded fingerprints, both as a result of deleting and readding as well as adding them as a result of turning off and back on the pin code)
is it me or is this real life?

Experiencing the same issue here...
After a reboot I cannot unlock with fingerprint, after the initial unlock it works fine.
I know for a fact my carrier will not be getting this update. I use a regional carrier and they never push out updates, the only way I'm ever able to update my phone is if a Verizon update works on it, or a bootloader unlock becomes available and I can flash an updated ROM.

Bluegrass Cellular
I really don't notice much different after the update. I wonder if lg/Verizon blocked some of the features. For example, I don't have the option to format the SD card as internal storage.

Doze and finger print. Scanner compatibility are the only two major upgrades..

For those having fingerprint unlock troubles here, I'll simply note that in the Verizon V10 forum they've only been reporting improved fingerprint scanners. Not sure why you both are having that issue, but it by no means common, and it is unlikely that solely the update caused the problem.
This update screwed up the bluetooth again that they fixed in the little scanner update a few months back, it no longer will play music from my 2014 Chevy Silverado via mylink, it connects fine, shows the music playing, but no sound will come from the speakers
Carrier models are being updated ahead of international variant, coming from HTC I see this very oddly.

The fingerprint scanner didn't unlock consistently after the update for me, I was running Nova prime, I reverted back to the stock launcher and the issue disappeared.
the issue with the fingerprint scanner is due to nova launcher... if you remove it, it will work just fine... until nova updates, thats the only option!
Hello :fingers-crossed:
I have set up my face unlock but when my screen is off the only way I can get back into my phone is by using the fingerprint method, What am I doing wrong?
It doesn't work like Huawei or Honor mobiles.
You've got to either double tap the screen or press the power button to initiate the process.
thanks for the info, i think the fingerprint option will be quicker then
It's good here...
But does not beat the auto faceunlock of my Honor view 10.
I take that phone out of my shirt pocket and without pressing anything, it's unlocked before I even look at it.

I was exaggerating for effect.
But it's true.
Face unlock is the only thing I miss of my View 10.
Hi , i had a bad surprise, i take my picture and i use it to unlock my pro p20, and it's working, can anyone try ? and what can we do to correct this?
long known issue - nothing
Close your eyes for face unlock. Bet you can't find a picture with your eyes closed
That is correct already. Nothing wrong. This is just how normal face unlock works since android 5. You want more secure one? Find one with 3d face unlock ie mi 8 Ee, mate 20 pro and ipx.

or even better, choose one with retina unlock. its harder to be fooled
In this part of world (Asia), under the warth of Covid 19 virus (new Coronavirus), people are recommended to wear face mask when visiting public places.....
The big disadvantage of face unlock become obvious under this situation since I can no longer use any payment options without removing my face mask, or input the passcode.... I really miss the fingerprint sensor on my previous Pixel 3XL....
Maybe Google can come up with a facemask mode for face unlock?

This is a genius idea! It will find huge market here since now one will be find USD 850 by not wearing a face mask when enter public places like hospital!
N95 is pretty expensive and almost always out of stock here....

Probably it won't work with pixel unlock system because it must be able to scan your face in 3D. It could work with 2d systems.
Anyway, same problem here by wearing a scarf on my face when it's -20°C outside. And wearing also thick gloves, I can't easily unlock the pixel with the sequence or pin. I always end up by lowering the scarf a bit to be recognized.
All considered switching from fingerprint to face unlock in this kind of weather conditions is brilliant.

But it's possible it could work if it'll able to learn your face with it on.

I never tried... Is it possible? I mean, can you register your face with something on it?
Anyway I wouldn't do that because you would give less information about your face to the unlock system. IMHO it would make the unlock system less safe.
Maybe the last resort would be unlock by iris... At lest that's something we definitely needed when using a smartphone.
I will try if facelock can save my face with facemask on.... However maybe after that anyone with a facemask can unlock my phone....
