I recently upgraded from 9.0.0.179 to 9.1.0.210, and now my fingerprint reader almost never wakes up and unlocks the phone instantaneously like it used to. If the phone has been in sleep for atleast a couple hours, it doesn't work. I have to first turn on the screen with the hardware buttons. If the phone was recently used, just putting my finger/thumb on the reader can wake and unlock the phone, but it takes 4-5 seconds of pressing the print on the reader to have the screen turn on. The screen only instantaneously wakes up and unlocks if the phone was used in the past few minutes.
Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?
Just an update in case anyone else experiences this in the future: I have found that if I tap the fingerprint scanner a few times, it will wake up the phone faster and even if in deep sleep.

Hello people,
I flash the ROM "CM 10.1 (Android 4.2) for Atrix" with the new kernel today and at the beginning everything worked fine.
But after a few minutes setting up the phone, the screen started shaking a moment until the display turn off (turn off but the phone is still working as if the touch also responds and physical keys are lit). When locking and unlocking the phone, the screen returns to normal.
I realized that the longer I leave it off, the longer it takes to give this bug, after turn on the screen again.
The brightness is at maximum and the phone is not too hot.
At least the phone stopped rebooting but play or do anything else is impossible (I can only make calls) because of this bug.
Any idea why this is happening?
So say for some odd reason you have your screen time out on 5 minutes, phones on silent you get a text. It wakes your phone up for 5 minutes. I have a rough idea of separating the screen time out selection into two. A screen time out set for when the end user unlocks his or her phone and a wake lock induced screen time out. Now I know there's anti wake lock apps but the idea is as I stated a set screen time out for a user induced wake lock and app induced wake lock. This idea popped into my head randomly as I don't leave smart stay on so I max screen time out to watch video's and sometimes luck my phone on silent for getting to change the screen time out back. Anyone have any insights about this.
Hey so my v10 sometimes doesn't allow me to unlock my phone with my fingerprint and I have to manually enter my password. Is this a problem for anyone else or just me? I have changed the fingerprints and changed lock screen from knock code to pattern but neither helped.
Yes I get this too. I know it will force manual entry after reboot but I experience this throughout the day from time to time. Its inconsistent.
Do you use an app to put the phone to sleep? There is a known issue in Marshmallow where fingerprint unlock will not work if the phone is put to sleep via an app rather than the power button.
I do double tap the status sometimes to turn the screen off but I don't think it's that. And no I don't use an app to turn off the screen
Has anybody else noticed that your fingerprint is grtting slower after some time?
At the fresh install of rom, when I put my finger on sensor it would immediately unlock it, whether the device was in deep sleep or not. But now, after 2 months of usage, whenever the device is in deep sleep it takes about 1 sec to unlock it when it is in deep sleep, but if I press power button and then put my finger on sensor it unlocks instantly.
I am running cm13 by santosh. Has anybody else experienced this?
I tried deleting cache/dalvik, deleting all fingerprints but nothing has changed.
I am experiencing lately an odd bug.
If I leave my s9 plus for some time without messing with it, the fingerprint scanner is not responding. Ofcourse I can just press the power button to open the screen and then the fingerprint scanner works great as it should. I can try to unlock the phone many times after that, and it will work as it should.
This only happens once if I leave the phone idle for a long time.
Anyone else with the same issue? Is there any possibility that the fingerprint scanner is getting into sleep mode...?
Yes i'm having this problem with lg v30 Havoc rom.. fingerprint stop working after idle..
