my touch screen stops working from exact fingerprint scanning area,then i have to press lock button then unlock by finger scanning, and it starts working again, it happens very frequently. its very annoying it doesnt let me scroll the web page, facebook or twitter, whenever my finger reaches scanning area either it register a click and opens the link or it does not scroll, again i have to do locking unlocking and it works fine again. restarted my device, wipe cache partition, but couldn't solve my problem.

Do you have a screen protector and if so what type
Yes , hydrogel screen protector.
Then possibly it to blame
But it works fine after locking unlocking,may be its a software bug

I have a weird issue when I'm unlocking my regular s6 with the finger print scanner. Pretty much 50% of the time when I unlock the phone, it's unlocks the in some app. Chrome, Facebook, message, gallery, app drawer or even in a folder. When I lock the phone it's on the main home screen. It's Like the touch screen is working when the screen is turned off. I have no issues with the touch screen when the screen is turned on. Anyone having similar issues?
Same problem here. It's weird... It seems random the application starting.
hey guys, i flashed stock XEF MM on my S6 couple days ago, and since then i notice that sometimes when you wake your phone up the screen lights up slowly and gets you to the lock screen, i though it maybe an animation, but now i noticed something, i have the finger print scanner lock. when i press the home button and keep my finger on the home button after it opens sometimes it locks the phone and turn the screen off, this happened to me couple of times right now....anyone noticed that??
Its a feature in MM ... When proximity sensors its blocked you cannot unlock the phone. This feature is to block "unlocking" while your phone is in the pocked ... I think you are having problem with proximity sensor ...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it wasn't blocked but the room lights are turned off, maybe that's why....but still it opens the phone and goes to the home screen and half a second after that it locks it again
EDIT: as it turned out it was the sensor, i tried to block it with my finger and it kept locking the phone, the reason the phone was getting to the home screen is that the finger print sensor works very fast, it's faster than the sensor, so it unlocks and then the sensor locks the phone....THANKS
Can anyone confirm whether this happens to them. I have fingerprint lock with either a pin or pattern as backup.
If on the lockscreen I swipe the screen rather than use the fingerprint lock the pin/pattern screen comes up with the blurb "Use Fingerprint or draw unlock pattern" However when i then put my finger on the scanner it doesn't register, its as if i haven't put my finger on the button. The only way I can access is via inputting pattern/pin. Once i have done this i can repeat by locking the screen and swiping and the reader registers.
However if i leave the phone for 10-15 minutes it then goes back to not registering the fingerprint on the pin/pattern screen again?
Anyone else getting this?
Getting the exact same issue on the Galaxy S7Edge with Australian firmware, and it completely ruins the usefulness of the fingerprint unlock method.
It's definitely a bug in the software - a few people have already experienced the exact same issue we have encountered over at:

Hopefully Samsung are at least aware of the issue and can patch it..
I had something called lock screen launcher or something like that I did uninstall it and it was normal again

Hello
I have Samsung Galaxy S7(SM-G930F). My right thumb fingerprint was not working sometimes. I have registered both thumbs , so i decided to delete the old fingerprint and register it again.
Here a strange thing happened. My sensor was not scanning my fingerprint and was stuck at 0% with the message "Make sure that your finger covers the entire home key".
My left thumb fingerprint is working fine. But I am unable to register the right thumb as i have removed it.
It is not allowing me to add any fingerprint with same message and remains at 0%.
I have restarted the device, Turned off for about 12 hours but still problem persists.
I also wiped the cache by pressing Volume +
Home and power key but still nothing good happened..
Kindly guide me .
Thanks
I am facing this super weird issue with my one plus Nord. it seems like my screen is not working as any of the swipes/touch etc or anything is not registered. but I am able to take screenshots with 3 finger gestures, I am able to unlock the phone with fingerprint with fp scanner, and once I'm unlocked I can only perform the recent tab open gesture(swipe from bottom)...
except for these 3 actions, nothing else works.
And the most astonishing thing is the power button is also working as a 1-second press. meaning I am able to lock/unlock the screen, but I am not able to force restart the device, that's right; if I try to click the button for 10-20 seconds, the screen just gets locked/unlocked as if I pressed it just for 1 second.
This is super random and I have no clue how to fix this issue, as I am not even able to restart/reset my device.
I am just now stuck waiting for the phone to get discharged and then I can try resetting by recovery. anyone has any solution or has anyone faced this after the recent nord update?
