I've fallen back on using the FP with Face Unlock as well, but FU is pretty inconsistent at night.
I noticed there is no vibration that confirms the FP unlock success or fail. Is this just me?
If I'm not mistaken, since Samsung refined their fingerprint technology with the S6 and onward, you should only receive haptic feedback if the sensor fails to read your finger print properly. No feedback if you do it right.
Case in point, with my S8+ or Note 8, if I fail to place my finger in the appropriate sensor space, it vibrates.
Check the level of 'Vibration Intensity' under 'Sounds And Vibration'
Why not use iris?
And the FP does have a small vibe when it fails.

Hello... i have been using the Note for a while. As for writing and drawing, my S-pen is really smooth, only a very slight pressure is required to register my S-pen on the screen. However, I have some minor issue with my S-pen and that being the false detection of my S-pen when it is not even touching the screen. Because of this false detection, sometimes I get unwanted pencil strokes on the S-memo and also making unwanted selections in the Menus and settings..
I am thinking of getting the S-pen holder that comes with a spare S-pen. But i've seen people in this forum saying that S-pens differ a lot in sensitivity and detection. The official Samsung S-pen accessory(comes with holder) has a grey button. The button on mine is black.
A friend of mine has a grey-buttoned stock S-pen that came with it when he bought the Note. I tested his pen on my Note and it was really bad. It required excessive pressure to register on my screen. However, his pen did not produce any unwanted false detections on my Note; ie. No unwanted pen strokes nor unwanted selections.
So, has anyone bought the spare S-pen from Samsung? What about the pressure/sensitivity of the spare S-pen in comparison to the stock S-pen? Or perhaps it is better to invest in other Wacom styluses, those with eraser function? And also is there anyone here with experience using the Spare S-pen?anyone with advice is very much appreciated. Thanks.
the same happened with me after 5 month from purchase...so i will be getting a replacement this week.........i think no pressure required as i tested my friends spen, it was perfect..
did you resolve the problem with a new S-Pen?
my daughter's Note 1 (N7000) falsely registers the pen as touching; you can see the "hover" spot appear in some apps and it will also draw before you touch the screen. If the paint/drawing app is pressure sensitive, you can draw thicker lines by pressing down just as you'd hope.
I know the phone is OK as it works fine with the S-Pen from my wife's Note 8.
I am sure I read somewhere that it is possible to dismantle a pen and adjust the sensitivity.

typically, I managed to discover the correct combination of google keywords after posting the previous message
yes, it is possible to adjust the pen sensitivity.

I used some brutality to fix the pen. basically banged it on a table hard, on its non-nib end, and also flat on the table. It took maybe eight hits, getting subsequently harder each time, but then suddenly started working, and has been fine since.
Hi,
D5833 - 6.0.1 - 23.5.A.0.570
When I received a call and put the phone near my ear, the screen goes black. If I remove the phone from my ear and stare at it, it will not turn on until the call is finished. I tested the proximity sensor using *#*#7378423#*#* and it behave correctly. Anyone knows what is going on or how can I disable it without the xposed framework?
thanx
Mart
Is your screen loose on the top left corner?
Check if Your screen doesn't peel off first. It's most common proximity sensor issue in this phone. Even 0.5mm can trick this sensor. Just tap top left corner and watch is it moving or when in call push that corner. If it's moving even a little bit or after pushing screen in that corner, proximity starts working You need to change adhesive.

If I understood correctly, to get in to change the adhesive, you need to also peel of the back cover (and change the adhesive on there also) take the phone apart and lastly access the front screen.... I had this issue and just used very thin guitar pick to lift the front corner a bit, I the put a small amount of superglue on the corner (minding the sensor) and applied some pressure to ensure that the glue got fixed. With this dirty hack I got my phone working (not water proof though)
Yes, this is longer way but safer. NEVER use cyanoacrylates in contact with transparent parts like glass or just transparent plastic. Super glue isn't precise tool and You had luck but most phones glued like that didn't. Fumes from glues like that can completely blur transparent area.
If You don't want change adhesives and disassembling whole phone to do that use any epoxy glue but never cyanoacrylate.
By the way changing adhesive is not so hard. You need to:
1. Heat back door and peel it off
2. Unscrew 5 Philips screws
3. Disconnect battery and LCD flex
4. Pick up battery a little to release LCD flex tape and Take out LCD
5. Put new adhesive and assemble it back
I made some photos from that operation. Description is in Polish but just follow that above and You should make it.
not from what I can see.

My proximity sensor flip from on/off all the time. In lollipop caller, I can double click power button to wake up screen, and keep it on when screen is facing up (It won't lock unless tilted over certain angle). But in new marshmallow caller, I didn't find a workaround. The marshmallow caller lock the screen much more aggressively.
at least a double click power button is an ok alternative to get your screen back

I there any way I can replace the caller in Marshmallow by the one in Lollipop?
Or Is there any third party firmware which allow proximity sensor to be disabled?
Thanks
I can answer it myself. Lollipop InCallUI won't work on Marshmallow. I Flashed SLiMM 1.5 Marshmallow (Can't root Sony stock firmware for now), and disabled the sensor with Sensor Disabler (Xposed Module).
Hi
I have a problem with my fp sensor the home button is working but the fp sensor is not recognizing any fp
I tried deleting all previous fp and reregister new fp I get prompt finger print registration error please try again
I did a full factory reset of my device also but there is no change
i tried *#808#
in the FP test menu
finger print auto test menu
The fp sensor test the self-test came as passed
but while doing chekerboard test the prompt is unknown error
in the fp quality test there is no response or numbers displayed
Kinldy help me out what should I do?
Provide more information!
Stock or custom rom?
Which ROM are you running?
It just happened, or you did something that triggered the condition?
Is there any possible way to wake the display of our beloved K20 Pro by single tapping on it (just like iPhone X)?
I would like to hear your opinion...
David, stop. I told you, go buy an iPhone, you wouldn't listen.
???
Ok, seriously now, it's certainly not impossible, but it would be too much work. Since it's an AMOLED, you could just keep the screen black and detect touch but that would drain your battery quick. Even if you got a custom kernel with support for this feature, you'd still up with a lot of accidental wake ups, so you'd have to find a way to detect when the phone should be woken up.
I'd be more interested in the raise to wake feature! An extra tap isn't that hard, but no taps is even better! And I'm pretty sure there's a way to do that with ambient display.

Hopefully this could be ported over.

All right all right, I never said I liked iPhones... There has been a misunderstanding my dear friend! What I meant is that I liked one of their features which happens to be supported by TWRP (you know when the screen turns off after a the time of period and then surprisingly you single tap the display to wake it).
As for the AMOLED display you were talking about, I see that Mi 9 has also an AMOLED display panel... So how is that possible then?

TWRP doesn't turn on with a single tap on all phones, on my S7 I need to press a button and on the LG G2 I need to double tap. I don't know if there's a way to test battery drain and see if this would be a good idea after all.

Same in my experience, it requires a physical button first and then a tap or swipe to the right to unlock the lock screen.

Does this happen on your K20 Pro having a TWRP?

Got Zenfone Selfie with AMOLED, all you need is double tap. Same on iPhone X, also AMOLED and single tap is enough... it has nothing to do with AMOLED or battery drain, that's just guessing... lolz
My GF's Mi 9 suddenly turns black when taking photos. She tried to restart the phone but there are no display at all. When i try to call her, she said her phone rang but she couldn't accept the call. All notification can be received as the notification LED indicator do lights up. Is this screen issue or? Please help. Is it worth to repair or just look for new model as her model is the basic 6GB /64GB model.
Now that is called a BSOD (Black Screen of Death). Have you flashed any custom kernels or ROMs recently?

Or her display cable came undone. Has she dropped it at all??
