Missing Fingerprint Manager option - Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers

Hi everyone, I bought used Xperia X in Croatia. Originally it was bought from T-Mobile Croatia by first owner.
Browsing through settings - security i can not find fingerprint manager option nor any way to enable this feature.
Does anyone have this problem? Google says that Xperia Z5 in some cases faced this issue after software (MM) update.
Can I somehow check if my phone has fingerprint scanner at all (but it isn't USA version so it has to be present i guess)? Maybe someone has it in service tests (I don't)?
Phone came with T-mobile Croatia branded software and I tried to flash Central Europe 1 version, but no change. I also tried factory reset etc. etc., but no change at all.

I've had several firmwares(customized nobu/ru/de/tw) installed, all contained fingerprint option under the security menu.
you could look up the fingerprint sensor status in the service menu(dial *#*#SERVICE#*#*)

I tried latest TW and DE, but no change. Now I'm downloading generic and if there's no change afterwards, I'll try repair with Xperia companion. If it doesn't work I'll give up and hope for solution.
I contacted previous owner. She said she used fingerprint reader. So hardware is present indeed.
After latest update, phone said that fingerprint needs to be rescanned if it plans to be used, but she cancelled because she was selling the phone. I guess this is where problem occured.
But it seems impossible to me that firmware flashing could not resolve it....
EDIT:
Generic firmware mate fingerprint manager and option to appear. It worked for a short while but then disappeared again. This is strange, really strange.

Hi, I'm from Mexico and it happened to me when i wanted to update my cellphone and i flashed a Generic US firmware 34.0.A.2.292 / R8A. At the begining i didn't know what happened, but when i read about fingerprint sensor on sony support, i realized that Fingerprint functionality is not available in the US market. Then i proceeded to flash another firmware but i searched another firmware respecting the version of my phone including the last numbers of the firmware 34.0.A.2.292 / R7A and the fingerprint manager option back to my cellphone.
I suggest you to flash firmware that corresponds to your cellphone and see what happens.
Maybe you can flash the green one with wiping option.

you know if the Xperia X Us Model F5121, have a fingerprint sensor, and could be enable with the process that you described
Compre uno en amazon (no me lo han entregado) creyendo que tendría el sensor de huella y después me entere que no lo tiene, sera que con flashearlo se puede activar igual que con los xperia X compact y el Xperia XZ?

Yes install any rom that it isn't US and finger print sensor will be activated
Si instala cualquier rom que no sea de estados unidos y tendras el lector de huellas

Confirmed!! you only have to Flash a different firmware. I had my brother's Xperia X F5121 with US Firmware (No fingerprint configuration) and flashed the Customized Gel firmware (Generic From Latin America) and the fingerprint sensor worked just find.

certo che puoi rimettere la rom originale basta che usi acer ruu modificato che baipassa il controllo della lingua
io ho messo il manila in italiano editando col regedit la chiave della lingua e mettendola 410..invece di 409 che e' inglese
ciaoo
Sure you can replace the original ROM Just use acer RUU amended that bypasses the control of the language
I put the manila in Italian Edited with regedit the key language and putting 410 instead of 409 .. and that 'English
ti ringrazio per la risposta... ma semplificare il tutto non si potrebbe....dove trovo l'acer ruu modificato?
ed inoltre si e risolto il bug del sensore di gravita?
thank you for the answer ... but could not simplify things .... where do I find the Acer RUU changed?
and it has also solved the bug in gravity sensor?

Si ce l'ho da 1 mese ed è veramente una bomba, ma l'unico problema è che non ci sono cuochi italiani che lo seguono, vedi ad esempio il Leo... Saranno uscite si e no 5-6 rom italiane in 15 giorni... Peccato perchè il nostro terminale è migliore su molti punti di vista.

Hi James,
is only sense in Italian or all rom ?
Have you in program a update of your rom with the last build wm 6.5.5?
no sim card
hello James, I finished right now to flash you ROM but it cannot recognize my H3G sim.
May it be my radio version 1.11.25.01 ? I not sure, because it worked fine with stock firmware until now.
---- sorry man! I put the sim in the wrong direction!!! XD but anyway, what is needed to make it look like your pics? I see only the text menu with the small "start" logo in the low-left corner
Thank you very much James, i have installed your rom with sense 2.1 on my Touch Pro and it is the best for me at now (i have never changed it), so i'll install that with sense 2.5 too. Landscape mode is ok?
Thanks again, your roms rules
edit: beautiful rom..no problem or bug
Landscape is ok too
That's my new rom.
Thanks man.
my dear james one question. before flashing the rom how do I clean the eproom? mtty as diamond okay?insomma prima di flashare posso usare mtty come per diamond? w la sicilia
I own a HTC Touch Pro with windos mobile v6.1, I could install this ROM?
yes, Why not ?
probably you need unlocking raph before flashing.....

Change Radio, the best at the moment is 1.17.25.09.
Then go to Setting\Today\Elements, and then tap on the last voice named Htc Sense. Wai 7-8 seconds and You will have Sense on your Touch Pro

Sicily for ever.
Do this.
Flash the Rom normal, then go to setting, tap on delete memory and tap on tap "NAND MEMORY", scribe 1234 and go. You will erase and clean memory and nand memory (I'm not shure, but I think Raph hasn't Eprom, Raph has nand flash memory)

Ciao, sono nuovo di questo forum, vorrei chiederti alcune cose:
se sul mio touch pro(wm 6.1) posso installare la rom proposta da james, dato che dal sito ufficiale dell' HTC non me la fa scaricare oppure dice che non c'è ancora per il mio modello.
E se poi, gentilmente potresti indicarmi come installarla.
Grazie Ciao.

Hello, I'm new to this forum, I ask you a few things:

And if, you could kindly tell me how to install it.
Thanks Hello.
Si, è la verione originale.

Official nougat OTA?

Is there ever going to be an official nougat OTA for the swift 2 considering that Cyanogen OS is no longer being updated? Or is the nougat update going to scrap Cyanogen OS and go with something different?
I've seen in some videos where the reviewer was told (from the company) that the device should get nougat anytime soon, but they didn't gave any timetable. It's going to be fun if they drop CyanogenOS and switch to any other system, since Wileyfox doesn't have the resources OnePlus had when they created OxygenOS, for example.
Still, this device seems to be quite open and developer-friendly, just look at the original Swift and all the development it already had. Whenever I get mine after this Christmas, I'd want to try to start working on bringing CyanogenMod 14.1 to it, but don't quote me on that. I'll try to do my best
EDIT: I've found the video I mentioned, however I think on Recombu's review they did also mention something... Hope it's helpful.
I talked with Wileyfox's official account on Twitter and they told me the very first Swift shall get the Nougat update with Cyanogen goodies. If the first gets it, why wouldn't the following devices?
(Sorry for my broken English)

Sadly no, they just told me it would be "as soon as possible", haha!

How do you know? Are you part of wileyfox team. What is your source? Thanks
We're already in february (the month the update was supposedly launched), so, it's highly probable it'll release during next few weeks for the entire Marmite device family (Swift 2, Swift 2+ and Swift 2X).

However, they did not officially say whether the update would contain Android 7.0 or 7.1.1, so, what are your sources on that? And what do you mean by "almost done"? Since from what I know, if they really plan to launch it this month they'd currently be in testing phase, not in production
I've tried to install the OTA update called cm-marmite-a1478a0ee9-to-7aa1c7975e-signed.zip and avaiable in the com.cyngn.fota folder
And I've got a error message.

The last time I've saw an error message like that was during an installation of an android nougat rom on a oneplus X phone.
Somebody already have the OTA update installed on his phone ?

You can't install a official OTA through TWRP, it must be with the AOSP recovery that came preinstalled.
To solve it: Flash the latest fastboot images available at cyanogen's support site and from there you should be able to install the OTA.

Dear friend, I installed the last Cyanogen recovery, but this was the result.
Thank you in advance.

That picture says that the system partition has unexpected contents (aka tampered). You need to flash all fastboot images, meaning, erasing your userdata (copy that zip to your pc/external SD card before erasing userdata, since you'll loose it), cache, system partition, dtb, modem, etc, just like I said in my previous post. After that it should work just fine
I thought that I have to install only the recovery "original". If I install all options I will lose everything that I have in my system now??
Can I disable OTA?
Thank you in advance.

If you flash everything, yes, it will remove all contents even from your internal memory.
You can disable OTA by removing WF-OTA folder from /system/app (Although I'm not sure if the system will like the idea too much, so I'd rather freeze the package with TB or something like that).
Si flasheas todo, sí, va a eliminar incluso lo que tengas en la memoria interna.
Puedes quitar el sistema de OTA borrando el contenido de la carpeta WF-OTA de /system/app (Aunque no estoy muy seguro de si al sistema le hará mucha gracia, así que mejor congelaría el paquete con Titanium o algo similar).
Me alegra ver que no soy el único de por aquí con un Swift 2
Ok I will use TB to stop the module.
Thank you for your information.
Best regards.

Convert your H872PR (Claro PR) LG G6 to H873 and update to Oreo!

Huge thanks to @hyelton , @Ferga2790 & @jounatam for instructions and testing.
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DATA LOSS OR BRICKED DEVICES! Make a backup of your phone's data as it might be necessary to factory reset it further down the line.
With the disclaimers out of the way, let's begin!
What you will need:
H872PR G6 (H871 and LS993VZA work too) running Stock Nougat
Reliable USB cable & port (USB 3 recommended)
The files stored here: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda%2FLG+G6%2FLGUP%2F (huge thanks to @hyelton for these files!)
The H873 Oreo kdz of your choice (tested by @jounatam with H87320c_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0424.kdz & by me with H87320e_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0601.kdz)
~7-8 minutes of patience
STEP 1: PREPARING LGUP:
Download all the linked files in the third bullet point earlier.
Run the LG Mobile driver installer. Wait for it to install completely!
Run the LGUP installer once the driver has been installed.
After installing LGUP, go to it's install directory (Usually C: \ Program Files (x86) \ LG Electronics \ LGUP).
Extract the LGUP_V20dll_Patched (3).zip file to your desktop or folder of choice.
Copy the files that you just extracted into the LGUP install directory (It will ask to overwrite LGUP.exe and the folder called "Model").
You should now be able to run LGUP!
BEFORE THE NEXT STEP, PUT YOUR G6 INTO DOWNLOAD MODE BY TURNING IT OFF AND HOLDING VOLUME UP (+) WHILE CONNECTING YOUR PHONE INTO THE PC!
STEP 2: LGUP OPTIONS AND FLASHING:
Run LGUP from the desktop shortcut or by clicking LGUP.exe in it's install directory.
On the lower half of the screen, click on the "BIN file" space (below "file path"), a button with 3 dots (...) should appear on the side.
Click the button and look for your Oreo kdz. MAKE SURE IT'S AN H873 KDZ! I can't stress this enough.
Once the kdz location appears next to "BIN file", click on the "Partition DL" option.
Click start.
A small window prompt will appear with a few checkboxes. Click "Select all".
Another window will appear asking if the selected operations are correct. Click "yes".
The flashing process will begin. Make sure to not disconnect your phone or power off your computer!
Once it's done, your G6 will reboot and LGUP will instruct you to "click to continue". Click the notice then disconnect your phone.
You should be running Oreo now! If you chose the 20e security patch, your phone will be automatically rebranded to G6 ThinQ on bootup.
HOW DO I UPDATE MY PHONE?
Just follow the first steps but still make sure you are using an H873 kdz file! I have tested updating with the August security patch (H87320g_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0809.kdz) and it works normally. You won't need to reset data.
I FINISHED FLASHING MY PHONE AND NOW IT WON'T BOOT!
If your phone gets stuck in the LG G6 (or LG G6 ThinQ) logo, hold the power and volume down (-) button at the same time. Once the phone reboots, let go of the power button and quickly hold it again, without letting go of the volume down button. You should enter the factory reset mode.
Once in factory reset mode, follow the on-screen instructions to reset your phone! Once done, your G6 will reboot and perform setup operations as if it were a new device.
Finally, a few warnings:
Your phone will no longer be able to go back to Claro's firmware, at least not for now.
If you had to factory reset your phone, you will be locked out of it if you don't remember the original gmail account tied to it.
Although this method has been working for the H871 and LS993VZA models, I cannot guarantee that this method will work 100% of the time with any device.
Hope this helped! Huge thanks again to everyone who posted valuable information leading up to this.
Does this work for H872TN (T-mobile)? Anyone tested the above method?
Thanks a lot for sharing.. Finally manage to update to H873 oreo from H872PR nougat..
Now I'm wondering if I could unlock the bootloader just like other variants..
Kinda regret buying this phone online without doing a research about the variants..
I thought all variants should be able to unlock the bootloader..

Sadly, I haven't seen a bootloader unlock for H873 yet; but don't lose hope!
EDIT: I have updated to the newest security patch(H87320g_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0809.kdz) without issue. If you have already converted your phone to H873, it will update normally and you won't need to reset data. Your files will be intact!

Unfortunately, I have not tested this with any other device as I only own an H872PR. It's not advisable to update using this method as some G6 models have different hardware and software developed for them and you could end up bricking them.
I have the H872 PR, I can use this to update it to android 8.0

Aunque no lo he probado, es posible que puedas volver a la version que tenias anteriormente utilizando el mismo procedimiento que he explicado aqui. Si funciona (o no), me dejas saber! De esa manera actualizo la información que he escrito en el primer post.

Hi how did u force update from h871 to h873 nad what partitions did u use? Your wifi problem is probably because u flashed the modem partition. Leave modem alone ,ull probably have to go back to the kdz that had wifi working for u then flash kdz for the other variant , just untick the modem partition. Please post updates.
Thanks for the guide, I have successfully converted H872PR to H873. First i updated to oreo then i updated to H873 PIE , H87330B
I found the Oreo firmware for H872PR H872PR20a_00_0404.kdz
is it okay to convert H873 back to H872PR?

I know this is an old thread, but it applies to my situation.
I have an LG G6. IMEI guru says it's a H872PR, but the phone claims it is an H873. I bought it new/sealed and "unlocked" from an ebay seller. I am unclear on what is going on with the H872PR versus H873 thing.
It's running Nougat/7. (Quite well. I really like this phone.)
In the settings there is not an option to use VoLTE. My carrier tells me that due to the 3G networks being phased out (since I don't have VoLTE) the phone will stop being able to be a phone soon. (Not that big of deal, right? Who talks on the phone anymore? )
I can buy a new phone, but the whole thing about not being able to update really irks me. So that's why I am here!
I found Oreo/8 .kdz out there, and this thread is a good description of how to use LGUP to push them to the phone. With the risk of bricking out there, I am hesitant. If I push the Oreo/8 update, will I gain VoLTE? (Reading on here, there seems to be some problems with Pie/9.)
Thanks in advance!

Update: LG Bridge works for my phone. (I know it doesn't for everyone.) Anyway I was able to use it to get to Oreo/8, and then Pie/9. VoLTE doesn't work for either. Oh, well. I tried.

[APP] Activate Ticwatch Pro 3 LTE without Vodafone UK

Hello guys!
User welder_pb from russian forum 4PDA.ru made special Xposed module that emulate Vodafone UK sim card in mobile phone to add any esim to Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 3 LTE.
Original post here: https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1005330&view=findpost&p=111054565
Tested myself with Pixel 4a, TWP3 and russian esim (Android 11, Magisk 23 + Riru + Riru Lsposed)
Requirements:
- Any sim card
- Rooted phone on Android 9+
- Xposed
1. Install attached TicEsimFix.apk;
2. Activate it for Wear OS app;
3. Force stop Wear OS app;
4. Open Wear OS, go to Advanced settings in the bottom and now you will see Mobile network settings; choose Setup carrier, follow built-in instructions;
5. ???????
6. PROFIT

After this operation you can disable/delete this module/Xposed/Magisk/etc.
I don't own a Wear OS watch with LTE so I'm sure the answer to the following question is simple for a user with TWP3 LTE, Fossil Gen 6 LTE, Xiaomi mi Watch or similar.
Can't all phone carriers in each country that have eSIM service be activated on the watches with LTE ?
If this is so, and only some operators are compatible to register the eSIM on the watch this module for Xposed seems to me a priori very useful.
I am from Spain and I check that there are 6 operators that offer eSIM service: Movistar, Orange, Vodafone, Pepephone, Yoigo, O2, and certainly I had not read anyone who had activated the eSIM of pepephone on his watch.
Here and here links to the worldwide list of operators with eSIM service by country.
I congratulate the developer for the idea and the programming.
Can confirm that this also works for the Ticwatch pro 3 ultra 4G/LTE. I just got e-sim activated in Sweden with e-sim from Telenor using this.
Activated using this method on my twp3 ultra LTE with Malaysian sim. Work flawlessly.
I should kneel down and worship the developer for his work
Posso fazer esse processo de conexão e-sim, com um celular secundário apenas para conectar o Lte ao smartwatch?
Em seguida, no meu telefone principal, conecte minha conta ao aplicativo Wear os.
O smartwatch funcionará perfeitamente no Lte?
Muito obrigado antecipadamente.
Mod translation:

Thank you very much in advance.

I've tried this, sadly I don't think it works no more.
did everything according to plan and haven't got the esim registration, so if you want to buy a watch for the sole purpose of having esim I don't think that's the case here, Maybe I did something incorrect (not a chance) but didn't work on Pixel Experience on PocoF1.
I think there are a bunch of good wearos watches with esim.

Yes, you can. But when you change the phone, you need to factory reset the watch (also this recommended after adding esim). Esim will not reset on this case.
You can also add any Vodafone sim to your phone (must be in smí slot 1) for a few minutes just to install E sim profile.
I using my old dutch sim which is even noc active to install T-MOBILE esim.
Is there any option to have this module installed in a newer Magisk version (v25)? Xposed don't work with my POCO F4 GT and I believe that is also an outdated module.

Use LSPosed: https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed
Everything was ok regrading instalation of LSPosed and TicEsimFix.apk.
- Selected wearOS app in LSPosed to activate TicEsimFix module;
- Force stop Wear OS app;
- Open Wear OS, go to Advanced settings, but there isn't any "Mobile network settings" available
Any clue?
