[Guide]Enable Fingerprint scanner without enabling AOD[Android 10] - Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion

Android 10 has arrived to our Mi A3. We users used to unlock the device by directly putting our fingers to the on-screen fingerprint scanner on Anroid 9.
I am not sure if xiaomi intended to not directly unlock the device on its idle state. But instead enable the double tap to wake the on-display fingerprint sensor.
Follow this guide to enable double tap to wake the on-display fingerprint sensor.
1.) enable the "Show fingerprint icon when the screen if off" under the fingerprint settings.

2.) enable the "New notifications" inside the Display/lockscreen settings.

3.) Now turn off the display and double tap the screen, NOT the fingerprint sensor.

NOTE: if one of these toggles are disabled, you will have difficulties looking for your on-display fingerprint scanner..hehehe

The doesn't work

It does not work, there are other ways to re-activate the fingerprint but after a few minutes it stops working. Don't think there is a solution, just wait for an update that corrects this

Button lights no longer working

The lights that usually appear between the buttons on my Arc S no longer work and I can't remember when they stopped! I wonder if a mod I've installed is to blame but I don't want to wipe my phone and start from scratch if possible so am looking for some help...
I am running 4.0.2.A.0.42.
Here is what I have installed:
V6 SuperCharger
I thought this might be the culprit so I used Script Manager to stop running the script at boot, rebooted and it made no difference.
Reboot option in power menu
I am using the one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1094730
Status bar widget mod
I am using the Ultra theme from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295254
That's about it.
However, one thing is odd - I seem to have an 'Automatic brightness' setting in Display options and I'm pretty sure it wasn't there when I first got the phone!
Any help is welcome.

Found it - the reboot mod was to blame.
was there any other impact other than "they just didnt light up" ?
Nope - just no lights. Seems that a few of the reboot mods available in the apps forum have the same bug.
How did you get the option to turn off/on automatic brightness? I dont have that on my phone and have same firmware as yours.

It appeared when I installed the reboot mod - but it doesn't do anything so you're not missing out! I guess the reboot mod files must of originally come from an SE device that had working automatic brightness.
oh thats too bad

SpyKit Camera for S3

Hi everybody, let me present you SpyKit, and app designed for taking spy pictures in a very simple yet powerful way!
The motivation was to address the main problems in most of the existing spy cameras: lack of polisheness and counter intuitive user interfaces.
Right now this is the only spy camera that works when you screen is truly turned off!
How to use it?
The first thing you have to do is activate it through the main switch in the upper right corner. You can also put a widget in your desktop for quickly enable it.
Then there two ways you can use the app:
-> Using your device buttons. (PLAY, PAUSE, VOLUME UP/DOWN)
By default all buttons are mapped to the Single Picture Action.
-> Using the Motion Detection feature.
By default motion detection is mapped to the Continuous Shooting Action
You, of course, can change this mappings at the settings screen.
SpyKit, by default, displays a floating preview which you can drag and resize as you like. It allows you to keep using your other apps while the preview is active!.
If you don't want the preview to be shown, you can disable it at the settings screen.

Speed up your fingerprint unlock and make it faster

Hey guys I found this guide on how to make your A50 fingerprint faster..
1) Open Settings, go to Apps, tap the 3-dot menu button at the top and select Show system apps.
2) Search for com.samsung.android.biometrics.app.settings and select it.
3) Go to Battery » Optimize battery usage and make sure you have selected All apps from the drop-menu at the top.
4) Search for com.samsung.android.biometrics.app.settings again and tap the toggle to disable this function.
5) Reboot your phone to apply the changes.

I didn't see much of a difference really. And I suppose it drains your battery more?
with android 9 i had it disabled before and with android 10 it is still disabled.
I don't know if it is placebo but with android 9 i noticed a speed up already.
with android 10 fingerprint works like it should be , i tested the scanner and fingerprint 3 was recognised all the time so i deleted fingerprint 1 and 2.
First I hated the fp scanner but now I love it.
p.s I have no protection glass.

I'm pretty sure this app is just biometric settings.

No battery drain issues for me, and it worked pretty well dunno for others
I guess this would not apply for facial recognition?
btw, can someone please ping me? I'm on legacy obviously and need to check if notifications would work doing the same thing. on topic sorta [emoji56]
