    Yes, I set it to 10 Minutes and the phone responds either by Fingerprints or pushing the Side Button... Because it is unlocked... So, really this is not a Fix, as your phone is Unlocked. You can start it up after pushing the side button once and it will not ask you for a password. After 10 minutes however, the fingerprints will not unlock the phone most of the time. My problem is that the Fingerprint sensor does not unlock the phone after sitting there for a couple hours... There seems to be something else going on.... This happened all of a sudden to me... It was working fine for Fingerprints for a truly locked phone to just very intermittent. ************************ Update: -- After trying ALL of the fixes on the Internet....... I finally did a Factory Reset and that COMPLETELY Fixed my Problem..... --- It is a software problem for sure and yes a Factory reset will have you getting your phone back to normal for hours!

      Hopefully it isn't a hardware issue. You've probably done this already, but make sure to restart it a couple of times, see if that helps. Check your security settings and make sure fingerprint is still enabled and that your fingerprints weren't deleted. If all else fails, do a factory reset and see if it works. If it doesn't, you may have to get it repaired. Good luck.

    • @jcx2bby
      @jcx2bby  3 роки тому +1

      @@WheatleyOS well, I see what you're saying but here's a couple of points for context. First, when I made this video it was three almost four years ago, right after this phone came out. At that time there was a lot of these phones that were having this particular, specific, issue with the fingerprint sensor, which is why I made this video. Did I make it too long and wordy? Yes, because originally it was part of a longer video and I just cut this part out of it. It is what it is now. Second, I never said this was a video on how to replace the fingerprint sensor, just merely fix it when it stops working. There was no intent at misdirection here on my part by saying this is how you can replace the sensor.
      If you have the opportunity to watch any of my other videos, especially the ones where I do lawn mower carburetor repair, you'll see that I do talk a lot. I try my best to help walk the unfamiliar through what can be complicated territory if they've never done certain procedures before. It is just become my style over the years.
