Are you saying this makes the fingerprint scanner more reliable on the A50? Which A50 update are you on?

Lockstar module doesn't make any difference on the fingerprint.....
Lockstar just give you the possibility to personalize the lock bar...
STOP TO OPEN THREAD TO TELL BULL**** ABOUT WAYS TO IMPROVE FINGERPRINT UNLOCK
The only way to improve is by software optimization
You can make it a little fastER by enable touch respons in the options. Notthing else.

its works for me. unlock more faster.

BRAVO!
Stop open threads about FP unlocking. It's sh*t and sh*t and nothing else for now (think in the future too)

I have installed and tested whole day yesterday but all was the same. Nice Lock is another apk to customise locking in combo with LockStar module but nothing else then that...
Samsung must work on software that controlling FP nodule.

The nice lock lockscreen is indeed more agile than the stock one, but it does not improve the fingerprint scanner, just the speed up the unlocking process. My guess is that's lighter than the stock one.
Speaking of lock star, changing the task changer to carrousel, scale animation and toggling the mini mode makes a huge difference on the overall smoothnes of the device too, I recommend you to try it.

You are a very young user of this community and you must learn more. If you browse this forum you will notice, that many users already reported that they have found God blessed remedy for A50 fingerprint. As time passed it appeared, that it was only temporarily. A50 is working in strange manner: many times in row perfectly and next suddenly degrading performance.
The gold thought here is: what is good for me not necessarily is good for me and vice versa.
We do not know why FB is so erratic. Maybe it is hardware problem. Maybe your skin is genetically softer then other. Maybe in your place air humidity is higher or lower and that is why it helped personally you but it doeas not mean it will help anyone else.

Rom with always on display?

Does anyone know of a rom that has always on display? I was going to go with codename phoenix but it has been discontinued and I don't know of another one.
Omni has it. Codename Phoenix is still being built, just no dedicated support. It's rock solid loaded with features.
Also, there is a substratum theme that supports it as well.

I believe it works in all the 8.1 Roms as long as you flash the OOS Oreo firmware.
As mentioned apparently you can enable this feature on the 8.1 only.
I use Always on Amoled from the store or glance plus. They both work well.

You are alright im not developer but probably don't have the same functionality as ambient display backed in a rom. Probably if you give all the permission and accessibility probably work as we want but i don't want to give every permission to the app im. Waiting for a good rom baked but for now it's ok

It seems so fast to me?. you just need to capture your fingers well and turn of the touch sensitivity...
Well it's "faster" in that I don't have to try 3-4 times for the damn fingerprint to capture. Now fingerprint is actually usable. Thanks!

Hi everyone.
Not sure if anyone mentioned yet, but i have found, that turn off blue light a switch Amoled from Adaptive to basic colors incresed speed of FP.. Can anyone test?
Thanks
Thanks
Thank you for your good advice, the work of the fingerprint reader has been significantly improved and accelerated.
Thank you !!! It works a way better now !!!

this trick worked for the first day then back to been slow again the next day !!!
It doesn't work. It just the same if you delete your fingerprint and it again. Works only for 1 day and goes back to the same.

Exactly !
Increasing the sensitivity has nothing to do with the fingerprint sensor detection speed. It increases the sensitivity/response of the screen & not fingerprint sensor.
Developers at Samsung can increase the speed of indisplay fingerprint scanner if they improve the Fp_Api, service routine & hal vendor.
It's currently not open source, ofcourse, hence no Open side development is possible.
Btw, Jerry rig confirmed on his A50 teardown that the A50 fingerprint sensor is of newer generation.
Cheers !

Motorola Edge 5G fingerprint reader

The Motorola Edge fingerprint reader has problems with recognizing the fingerprint. It all depends on what animation you use. It's responsive enough with radial waves setting, but, the others, not so much. Which one do you use?
Interesting theory. I'll test it and post back if I find a difference.

Hopefully, the next(??) update will fix that. I would love a bigger choice of animations, or the ability to turn it off.
I've noticed this as well. Doesn't make any sense.
Gave up on using it. Face unlock, with pattern for now. Maybe a update, or rom will fix it someday. Even if face unlock doesn't recognize your face, the pattern grid pops up. The fingerprint reader, you have to keep pressing, til it gives up, then you get another option.

Question FaceID for pixel 6 pro?

Hi, i was wondering if its possible to port the face recognition option we used to have on older android versions as a mod on the pixel 6 pro. I believe they used the front camera.
Are there any accuracy problems associated with using front camera?
I just needed a faster option to unlock at work as my hands get kinda dirty and the FP sensor on pixel 6 is sensitive to dust unlike the one on my pixel 3 XL (RIP legend).
If there is a solution that exists already, please forgive my naivety and point me to the thread/discussion for it. Thank you!
I don't think there is currently a solution and I doubt there will be unless Google includes it later.
Can you use smart unlock, with your works WiFi? Or location unlock if it has that?
There were reports that FaceID is in the code, but that it was not used on the P6 because it drains the battery. Since the battery is not great as is, I can see the point. I also wonder how secure it is, as Apple uses dedicated hardware to ensure security (thus the notch), but Google seems to rely on the camera alone -- I assume it's a more secure unlock than the totally inon-secure fake FaceID unlocks on many Chinese phones, like Xiaomi.
On another note, I am trying to use my Garmin watch as a trusted device, but about half the time it doesn't work and the phone would ask for PIN. The trusted device implementation, at least with a watch, is kind of a joke, so I am thinking of disabling it at this point.
I am using Trusted Location. Seems like its working fine. Google 'begs' to have you turn 'on' location function for several of its niceties to work. So security joins the growing pile.

Trusted location is poor security, for many reasons.
Anyone at the location can unlock your phone, so for most of us it's not a solution.
My security is my phone is always on me. I never have left a phone anywhere, lost one, or had one stolen...

Was about to say this. Wifi/Location unlocking when at work is not a good idea.
There is a reason why we lock our phones, and no human is perfect - you might forget it for a moment, or get distracted - whatever.
If someone doesn't care for security in any way (I am perfect & my phone will 24/7 stay on me, no matter what) then he/she/is doesn't need any sort of security active in the first place.

It can certainly be done, but you'll have to write some of the code for it yourself. There are a number of open source facial recognition packages available that you can leverage for this.

I work in construction and so there's usually no wifi at work. And the location differs almost everyday so that won't be a viable solution as well.

Nononono, wrong approach. You do NOT want to bypass phone security. You want to integrate into it. Android is an open source operating system, just find the code where the 4 included unlock mechanisms are defined (swipe/pattern/pin/password), and add your own in the same way.

Fax cus I'm sure that "don't turn off screen if I'm looking at it" feature uses battery and it's ALWAYS ON when you're on your phone if you turn it on. Face ID only on when you use it, how can that even affect battery ?
Pixel 5 has face ID on one of the custom Roms, can't remember which one though.

Yeah but it would only be looking for one thing. Maybe all the battery used on image processing for FaceID adds up over the many unlocks during the course of the day. Thats why i am keen to have it enabled only while I'm at work as the FP works fine in all other circumstances.

Question (FIXED) POCO F3 Touchscreen doesn't respond well to precise small touches

(POCO F3 LATEST MIUI 14 STOCK)
I got this new phone yesterday, overall it's pretty good, but i noticed something weird, when playing games, specially shooters where you need presicion it doesn't have a good response to small movements,
it's like having high deadzones with a analog stick from a controller, it doesn't recognizes position changes of the finger immediately after the start of its movement.
i have to pass a couple milimeters of distance from the initial position to the next to register, i haven't seen much people talk about this but some people say that it is a phone issue, others say it's a miui or rom issue, i seriously want to root the phone to test other roms, but i don't want to lose the warranty right now so i want to make sure if i can do something i didn't do.
My poco x3 nfc didn't have that issue, but i sadly can't do comparisons because it's not longer working.
Video example from reddit, not my post but it is my exact problem.
Thanks for reading.
(EDIT) i fixed it! it was just to manually adjust some settings in game turbo, this was getting through my nerves, please watch this video if you have the same issues.
I have the same problem with that, but i tried a lot of roms and fixes for that nothing helped.
If you really need only in game's, i found a solution of small movement via gyroscope, maybe that could help you.
This sucks... Yeah i use gyroscope to do these small movements for now.
Do you have the same phone? I'm thinking of returning it, but i still don't know if this one i got is a bad unit or all poco f3 suffers from this. I'm still thinking what is the best thing to do.
I have same phone i don't think its unit problem . Root your phone (you can easily unroot later) and use increase touch magisk module by vito hermawan.

Dont use Pro mode, just go into custom and to like the guy said on video.
I don't recommend you to change any of those touch settings.it becomes more choppy. Just disable swipe to screenshot feature.

Hey guys, i fixed this problem with clearing all data of "battery and performance" and this enables 120fps in cod mobile and i dont have latency with touch. Try it, it will solve all your problems.
