• If you are experiencing issues logging in, we moved to a new and more secure software and older account passwords were not able to be migrated. We recommend trying to reset your password, then contacting us if there are issues.
  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

You may try locking the bootloader, if that is possible from within your OS. As I've read, the fingerprint sensor is somewhat tied to the bootloader being locked.

Found a way to experiment on this?

already unlocked bootloader but my pc cant detect fastboot command

edit: solved it by adding "./"

this rom is far better than color OS. only cons are:
- can't set lockscreen
- brightness level is too low
