Good evening together,
I have opened a new topic so that we can do everything together regarding a fix for the fingerprinter.
This is known to be broken when we open the bootloader.
I really hope that together we can find out how we can fix this.
I once looked at all files between de Realme X and the X2.
Unfortunately, I have almost no discernible differences.
Thus, the fix of Realme for the X might also be in the bootloader itself.
Where Widevine is still set from L1 to L3.
Maybe you have an idea?
Up for this topic.
Try to fix fingerprint. Its available only for a17 ROM.
Flash in twrp or unpack and replace files by hands.
also may be need wipe dalvik-cashe.

hello i'm mi 5s 4gb/128gb user
yesterday, i was using cyanogenmod 13 but i want to use miui again
so i restored nendroid backup from twrp recovery
that was start of diaster..
after this. fingerprint scanner mostly doesn't work
sometimes fingerprint scanner work correctly after reboot, it doesn't work.. and sometimes... it works...
i did many many method (global rom, china rom via edl mode, fastboot mode) but everything has same result,
so i looked at my logcat
it says
QFP : QfpThreadMatch::execute: match result -3: QFP_INSUFFICIENT_COVERAGE
with my finger or not logcat said same result
why my fingerprint scanner doesn't work?
is it hardware issue?
sorry for poor english

Maybe placebo effect but people are saying Global rom had improved fingertip detection rate.
If i were you, i would flash as stock as possible, recovery, bootloader, lock status, everything, just to determine software versus hardware failure.
Hope for the best, as this kind of life cycle premature failure freak me out, first stucked autofocus sensor now this!!!

I had a problem which seemed to be hardware related after flashing the Chinese developer ROM and then later restoring a Miui EU ROM from a backup. My problem was with audio - there was no sound coming from the speaker or headphone output. I did diagnostic tests which failed - indicating a hardware problem.
It was only after re flashing the EU Miui ROM that the problem was resolved.

i solved it
i think this was problem of driver
so i needed rollback of driver
first. i flashed 6.10.13 eu rom over 6.12.29
it occurs bootloop
second. i flashed 6.12.29 over 6.10.13 again. and fingerprint works like charm again!
Exists the cyanogenmod for Mi5s?
Still very buggy. We have to wait for xiaomi to release the source code to get nice CM .
The fingerprint happened to me too, it just stopped working.
Flash the stable global using fastboot, it will erase everything, and will be great again.
Don't restore with Titanium backup, I had all kind of weird problems everytime I tried.
One of the worst fp sensors ever. I tried all the tricks mentioned in several places, detection rate stays very low.

Flash a full stock ROM zip, with the included firmware. If that doesn't work then send it off to OnePlus.

Go to Settings and register a new fingerprint ?
Reflash full stock if still doesn't work It's a hardware problem and needs RMA'd

I go to the dialer app and type *#808# , and to the fingerprint test , passed , but still not working . I can press the sensor to go to home but fingerprint sensor not working ? Maybe a software issue ?

Have you flashed full stock and the issue is still there?
You need to flash 3.2.8 official version. It wilk bring back your fingerprint sensor.
Have you registered a new fingerprint in settings?

Same Issue with me
I am also facing the same issue. Done everything I guess what I have seen over the internet but, still it saying fingerprint hardware is not available. What to do bro please help me if your issue has been solved
Guys do a full clean install. Somehow something is messed up. Try the unbrick guide it will reset your phone fully from then you should upgrade to the latest version of OOS and then if everything is working consider a custom rom.
Hi everyone, first of all, thanks for being such nice community!
I've just received my new Mi5S, played with it for a bit and flashed xiaomiu.eu stable (because I was told to not use the 'fake' banggood global rom) , then flashed the latest xiaomi.eu dev (Android 7.0, I guess).
Everything was fine, but I tried to use the fingerprint sensor and it works very poorly, having to press more than 100 times to setup my finger, and then, it was very inconsistent to unlock.
I've tried many roms to try to understand the problem: Ressurection Remix, Xiaomi Global Stable 7.5.25 (using TWRP, flashing over "fake banggood global rom"), all have the same issue.
My question are...
Can i fix it flashing the global xiaomi image fastboot? (Maybe it's a corrupt/incompatible fingerprint firmware?)
Is there any difference from using TWRP and flashboot to flash? (I couldn't install the stable ROM after installing the dev, in order to downgrade, i restored my backup from 'fake banggood global rom', and then flashed xiaomi.eu stable // maybe the .zip doensn't come with all firmware? //
Will my bootloader LOCK if i flashboot? (my phone came unlocked from banggood).
Maybe my sensor is faulty? I guess it was working with the "banggood fake rom", but I tested briefly (it unlocked a few times, at least).
Sorry my english!
This is normal. We need to wait for Xiaomi to fix it.
I saw your post on Xiaomi eu too ?
Fingerprint for mi5s is well optimized now, it only takes 0.5 sec for me to unlock. Try to update your rom.
Well, try to record your finger horizontally.
For detailed how to, check this post http://en.miui.com/thread-439364-1-1.html
Try different techniques when registering your Fingerprint. I found applying a tiny amount of pressure on the sensor worked best for me. You don't need to press it you just have to make sure your skin is flattened on the surface.
Also a mistake I found when I saw my friend registering his fingerprint was he was registering around the center of his thumb, while in practice he used the tip of his thumb.
If done correctly I can unlock my phone scanning my thumb vertically or horizontally even though I registered it only vertically.
Try to install ZCX TWRP, mount persist partition, go to persist through TWRP file manager and rename fingerprint folder to fingerprint-old, after that, as I think, wipe needed.
Same here, have Mi 5s with MIUI 8.0.3.0 (MAGMIDI), received update to 8.5.3.0 (MAGMEID). Was happy to finally receive some update, but everything is pretty much the same. Hoped at least that the fingerprint sensor will perform a little better, but until now its even worse, doesn't respond at all. This **** sensor piss me off, before this phone I used fingerprint all the time... We get zero support from Xiaomi about this fingerprint sensor!! This is my first and last Xiaomi mobile device..
Anyway before reading this thread I considered installing different roms , maybe this stable one from Xiaomi.eu : xiaomi.eu_multi_MI5S_V8.5.3.0.MAGCNED_v8-6.0.zip
But in my understanding that didn't solve it for you, right?

Hello guys,
I am on stock Oreo, is it possible please to get somehow the stock ambient display instead of Moto display? I have read that on some phones disabling moto app will bring back ambient display, but it didnt work out for me.
Thank you for your answers

I don't think that there's a way to have stock ambient display with StockROM by Motorola. However, most of the CustomROMs have this ability.
Btw, a little bit off-topic.. but aren't you from Slovakia too?

Each CustomROM that I tried had some bugs. Unfortunately, all of them had slightly disorted sound during a call in comparison with StockROM. However, these ones (mentioned below) are the best in my opinion:
7.0 - debloated stock https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/rom-debloated-optimized-t3722396
7.1.2 - LineageOS 14.1 https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/7-1-x-lineageos-14-1-moto-g5-t3611973
I would recommend you to use this build of LOS 14.1, if you are interested https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GO7i7h1QQcD8oY3uUBr4a2u1gJzlRkzk/view. I faced a huge problem - apps like Snapchat, Instagram or Messenger started to freeze and force close randomly, but only with august 2018 build (the latest one). Reboot didn't help at all, reinstall of LOS or crashing apps fixed problem just temporarily. Flashing build from june 2018 (link mentioned in this paragraph) seems to be a permanent fix.
If you are running stock Oreo, you have to downgrade to Nougat first. Otherwise, your fingerprint scanner will not work with any Nougat based CustomROM (idk about Oreo ones ). How to downgrade a Moto device without getting hardbrick? It's simple - make sure, yours device's bootlaoder is properly unlocked. Then, flash everything except gpt and bootloader to avoid hardbrick while downgrading. Running "fastboot erase modemst1" and "fastboot erase modemst2" commands wipes IMEI, so exclude them also.
8.1.0 - AOSPExtended 5.4 https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/rom-aospextended-5-0-t3710925 with Alize v10 kernel https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W9s2Wd52buDLglqOX2cEsgHTD0qWFHbv/view.
I have already tried this combination and there was no problem while taking photos and recording videos using Footej Camera.
If you decide to try this ROM with gapps installed alongside, follow this tutorial before the first boot https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/how-to-repair-bootloop-oreo-roms-t3791189. Otherwise, your phone will be stuck in bootloop.
Thank you for your comprehensive guide to custom roms
It's shame there isnt any custom rom with everything working fine. I think I will go back to Lineage 14.1 and then buy a new phone. Motos arent the same since Lenovo took them.
how to fix? , i bought this phone for cheap price is this a software problem or a hardware issue? if i root my device and give it a new custom rom will it fix the problems? pls i will appreciate any opinion given

Hi, fortunately it's a software issue, all you would want to do is to just Unlock the phone's bootloader, flash TWRP recovery, root the stock rom with magisk and finally install a good custom rom such as Free Roms or Infinity Os, all of which would remover this issue permanently....
