After unlocking my home button didn't work so I nandroid restored to a previous time to get everything working again and remain unlocked. Now the fingerprint scanner doesn't work, I am on gingerblur.

Hi,
did you by any chance unlock your bootloader? I just unlocked my bootloader this morning (which also includes a factory reset) an now I cannot use my fingerprint any longer for any task (unlock phone, login into paypal etc.) The registration of the fingerprint seems to work but it is not recognised afterwards.
Update 30.05.2016:
Got my fingerprint sensor working again. The reason for not recognizing my fingerprints was the option "allow OEM unlock" enabled in the developer options. After disabling this option unlocking the phone via fingerprint is working again.
i didnt do unlcok oem .
Hi,
I was on MM and the fingerprint sensor worked some of the time and it wasn't reliable. I decided to use FlashTool to flash the same software to have a nice clean install, however, after I did that the fingerprint sensor stopped working. Every time I try to add a fingerprint, it says put my finger on the sensor and wait for the vibration, but it never worked.
Is there something I have to tick in FlashTool? I am using the right FTF.
Edit: In Service Test > Fingerprint Sensor, it appears to be fine. Also, DRM keys are intact if that matters. I was worried I wiped too many things when I flashed the FTF.
I've also tried adding fingerprints in Safe Mode as well as flashing FTF from a different region (but for the device). I am still unable to add fingerprints
Did you unlock bootloader? I had the same issue afterwards. Fortunately got a new one now, but I'm not unlocking for the moment.

Hi everyone,
Currently, I am using Havoc os 2.5 which is a pie based custom rom in my xiaomi redmi not 4(mido). I always flash new custom roms but never happened this. Now I have a problem facing with the fingerprint scanner, when I placed finger to the fingerprint scanner to setup fingerprint lock or add a new fingerprint but it's not responding anything. this issue happens only in user as admin. If i switch user as guest or another user and try to setup fingerprint lock then it perfectly works.
please help me to fix this problem. Thank you
Has anyone managed to fix the fingerprint sensor?
After unlocking the bootloader, the fingerprint sensor stopped working.
HELP!
It works fine for me and most of the other people here who unlocked their bootloaders. Try relocking i guess
