RE: Fingerprint Recognission
Thank you very much indeed for all your help and for taking the time to describe the steps in so much detail. From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: 08 May 2014 18:04 To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Fingerprint Recognission It really is a simple process, all you have to do is go to Settings and then find Touch ID and Passcode just below Sounds. Once you double tap find where you can turn Passcode on as this has to be your first step. It will ask you to enter a 4 digit number on a keypad just like the phone keypad. If you can dial a phone number you will have no problems. After you enter the last digit it will ask you to reenter the same 4 digits to confirm and once that is done Passcode will be active. You can now find where it says Require Passcode. By default this is set to immediately, if you double tap on this you can choose from a number of times, e.g. if you select 5 minutes it means that if you lock your phone and then try to unlock in less than 5 minutes you will not be asked for a passcode, only if more than 5 minutes have passed since your last unlock will you be asked to put in your passcode. I would also suggest you leave it on Simple Passcode, if you turn this off you have the option to enter a longer passcode like a 5, 6 or I think even 7 or 8 digit passcode. Lastly, just go to where the fingerprints heading is, then swipe right to Adda Fingerprint and double tap it. Voiceover will tell you to place your finger on the home key, you put it on the home key and lift it off, the phone will vibrate briefly to indicate it has taken a reading. Now repeat this, you will be asked to do this probably 10 or so times and it's a good idea to you're your finger around a bit, capture the edges and different parts. Don't use the very tip of your finger too much, more the area between the tip and the first joint. There really is nothing you can mess up here, worst case is that it won't read your fingerprint well and you'll be asked to put in your passcode. You can add up to 5 fingers or what I do is that I use at least 3 or 4 of the spots to reenter my thumb which I use to unlock my phone. The more often you register your print the better your chances it will work. As I said, Voiceover will tell you what to do, at some point during the registration it may say that you should now capture the edges of your finger and you may have to tap on a continue button and do a few more readings, once Touch Id has captured enough good readings it will tell you that it's ready and that you can now use your finger to unlock the phone. To unlock, push the home button, release it and leave your finger on the home button for another second or so, the phone should unlock.

RE: Fingerprint Recognission
Hi, To add to what Sieghard pointed out, if you need to put in your passcode and don't want anyone next to you to hear it, use your rotor to go to handwriting and put in your passcode that way by drawing the numbers on the screen. In that mode the digits are not echoed.
