Defective Finger print scanner?

XeroHertZ · Jun 12, 2014

Hi All,

My brother just got a 32 GB S5 (SM-G900F) a week ago and every time he runs the finger print scanner manager app he gets the following error

Does he have a defective finger print scanner, should he return it back for replacement??

Try factory reset, if no luck send back for replacement.

Thanks for the reply and sorry for my late reply...i'm going to flash the stock firmware now via odin and hope all goes well.
