FP hardware not available!

[ShuichiAkai]

Hey guys! I have a problem with my P2, some times I get fp hardware not available! A lot of times it works again after activating/deactivating developer mode and restarting the system! I'm on LOS 14.1 but I tried AEX and Havoc too

Funny, i'm getting the same thing. I'll try the developer mode trick.

I lost it on stock s251.. only gestures were working in Safe mode. Tried los 15 with the fpgesturesfix zip .. i only could use fp sensor once. But it stopped the next morning. Any fix? Going back to stock (7.0 /6.0) will help?

Developer mode trick didn't work for me, so i switched from RR to CRDroid, but no joy. Maybe something wrong with oreo sources, maybe stock fixes it... Maybe, maybe...

Seems that it's working now for me..I just did a full wipe, with internal storage too, and than flashed back Los 14.1, then I activated developer mode and restarted the system...it's working until now..

Well, my fp sensor also came back after doing precisely nothing just started working again. Weird.

Flash these files , according to your rom base, after flashing rom. Works for me. ?

I was on stock and my fp was faulty. I am not sure but u can try the Aosp fix. Don't blame me if your phone blows up as I use these files with custom roms.
