RE: Mark's iPhone Prediction, and some Info on In-Display Fingerprint Technology

2018-09-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Mark,

Interesting and I wouldn't be surprised at all that if an under the display 
fingerprint sensor is developed which works truly well and fast that it would 
be Apple who will release it.
The question is whether Apple sees the need for it given their fantastic Face 
Id feature which is in its second generation apparently very fast, much safer 
than fingerprint and more reliable.
Of course if one day we had an iPhone with a very reliable and fast under the 
display fingerprint sensor as well as Face Id so that you could choose 
whichever method you want or even use both interchangeably than that would be 
awesome.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hello Everyone,

This post consist of three parts:

In the first part, I re-post my comments, posted on Saturday, September 1,
2018, regarding this year's iPhone releases. 

In the second part, I post an article from The Verge, in which a writer
describes his first experience using an in-display fingerprint sensor.

Finally, in the third part, I post an article that describes how in-display
fingerprint sensor technology works.  

So, read on, and enjoy.

I think that many companies will be adopting under-the-screen fingerprint
reading technology.  If Apple adds this feature to this year's phones, I'll
be delighted and will probably buy one.  However, if, as I strongly suspect,
they do not include the new finger print technology and completely remove
Touch ID from the new devices, then I'll stay pat with my 8 Plus as I really
do love this phone.  I strongly suspect that the 8 series will continue to
be sold for those who are not ready/willing to abandon Touch ID.

Perhaps, next year, then, the new finger print reading technology will be
ready for Apple primetime.  

Just my opinion, of course.

I tried the first phone with an in-display fingerprint sensor
By Vlad Savov

After an entire year of speculation about whether Apple or Samsung might
integrate the fingerprint sensor under the display of their flagship phones,
it is actually China's Vivo that has gotten there first. At CES 2018, I got
to grips with the first smartphone to have this futuristic tech built in,
and I was left a little bewildered by the experience.
The mechanics of setting up your fingerprint on the phone and then using it
to unlock the device and do things like authenticate payments are the same
as with a traditional fingerprint sensor. The only difference I experienced
was that the Vivo handset was slower - both to learn the contours of my
fingerprint and to unlock once I put my thumb on the on-screen fingerprint
prompt - but not so much as to be problematic. Basically, every other
fingerprint sensor these days is ridiculously fast and accurate, so with
this being newer tech, its slight lag feels more palpable.
The biggest unfulfilled promise of 2017 is becoming a reality in 2018
Vivo is using a newly announced Synaptics optical sensor, which has been in
development for years. It works by peering through the gaps between the
pixels in an OLED display (LCDs wouldn't work because of their need for a
backlight) and scanning your uniquely patterned epidermis. This is likely
the tech that Synaptics and Samsung were collaborating on for the Galaxy S8
for last year, right up until it became apparent that it wouldn't be ready
in time for the phone's release. Things are different now, as Vivo is close
to announcing this as-yet-unnamed phone properly and Synaptics is already in
mass production with the so-called Clear ID sensor.
The uncanny thing for me with this phone is how obvious and immediately
intuitive the in-display fingerprint system is. This 6-inch phone has the
minimal bezels of something like the OnePlus 5T, but it also happens to
unlock when I put my finger at the bottom of its screen. The technological
aspect is just totally invisible and, if you're not paying attention to how
challenging this is technically, it feels almost pedestrian and
unimpressive. Like, of course, that's how it always should have been.

In-Screen Fingerprint Reader Explained: Here's Everything You Need to Know
By Omar Sohail
 
Apple's iPhone 5s started the whole smartphone biometrics saga with the
introduction of Touch ID. The fingerprint scanner element is now ubiquitous,
embedded in home buttons, mounted on the back side of mobile phones and even
placed on the side beneath the home button of handsets. Naturally, the
development of faster and more accurate fingerprint readers led to the
makings of newer ways of unlocking your smartphone.
This includes facial recognition like Face ID and something that we will be
discussing in detail today; the in-screen fingerprint reader. As we see more
high screen-to-body ratio smartphones getting released, a consequence of
this action is the where to put the fingerprint reader, which is often moved
to the back of the phone to compensate for those 'all screen' handsets.

RE: Door locks with fingerprint technology with Bluetooth and accessible app?

2018-01-22 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Ask for electronic keypad locks from well-known companies like Schlage, Weiser, 
Yale, Tamor etc.
Make sure you specify you want just an electronic lock, not a smartlock unless 
of course you do want a smartlock.
Also, make sure you check to see if the lock has buttons to push and not a 
touchscreen, those are just a pain in the neck and you have to put on dots and 
all that. Tough luck if the trick or treaters come and peal all the tactile 
dots off your touchscreen.
Mostly the button locks come in two flavours: phone keypad layout or a layout 
where you have simply two rows of buttons, the top one is 1 to 5 and the bottom 
one is 6 to 0. This means 6 is under the 1 and 0 under the 5. I have had two 
locks with this layout from Schlage and Weiser and both had a separate “Lock” 
button above the top rown in the middle (right above the 3).
I don’t mind either layout, but it’s up to you.

My mom has a keypad lock like the one you mentioned. It drives me crazy, 
because the numbers go from 1-5 along the top row, and 6-0 along the bottom

I asked my question because I have a tendency to lock myself out often.  That

Thanks a million folks for this valuable information.
I do not have a security company, and I have no intention to hire one.  It is 
simply not needed in my area.
I asked my question because I have a tendency to lock myself out often.  That 
is why I thought of fingerprint or digital lock.
Now, I wonder how hard is it to install these locks.  Do I need to hire a 
specialist to assemble and install these kinds of locks, or I would be able to 
do it myself?  When it comes to the regular mechanical locks with keys, I 
always change them myself without hiring a Locksmith. I am not sure how hard it 
would be to install a digital lock by myself!

Find out the exact model and Google it, you’ll find all the features, specs and 
most likely a user manual in PDF.
I don’t know why anybody in their right mind would want to Alexa enable a 
doorlock. Alexa has no security as far as I can tell and if somebody knows you 
have Alexa and a smart doorlock that works with it all they have to do is walk 
up to an open window and ask Alexa to unlock your door. If I want to unlock my 
Schlage Sense with SIRI it only works if I first unlock my phone with Touch Id 
or my passcode.

How are these locks powered and do you need it installed by a professional?

Wow, both my keypad locks have the two rows with the lock button all by its 
lonesome above the 3 which is right in the middle above the top row.

I really don’t find this at all inconvenient. I did have a lock before with a 
phone keypad layout and once I got the other one it became second nature after 
a few days.

My mom has a keypad lock like the one you mentioned. It drives me crazy, 
because the numbers go from 1-5 along the top row, and 6-0 along the bottom 
next row, with some unknown button right underneath the 8. I really wish it had 
the numbers in a standard telephone layout, but I'm at their house so rarely 
that it's not really a big deal. If I ever did get a keypad lock like this, I'd 
like to find one with the numbers in the standard telephone layout.

Not any more, quite a few electronic lock companies made fingerprint doorlocks 
years ago, I had one and so did a friend of mine, and they were the biggest

Depending on how much you want to spend, you are much better off with an 
electronic lock with a keypad or a smartlock which you can unlock with your 
phone.
I have a Weiser electronic lock at my retail store which was actually installed 
by my alarm company and which has a keypad, but it also connects via the 
Zigbbee protocol to my alarm panel so I can unlock it via the alarm app 
remotely.
At home we just recently purchased a Schlage Sense smartlock which has home kit 
support. This means you can unlock it by telling SIRI “Unlock my front door” or 
from the home app. It has also a keypad, but it’s a touchscreen so you’d have

Installing a basic electronic lock is not super-difficult, but you might want 
to have a backup plan, somebody you can call and ask for help, just in case.

Thanks a million folks for this valuable information.
I do not have a security company, and I have no intention to hire one.  It is 
simply not needed in my area.
I asked my question because I have a tendency to lock myself out often.  That 
is why I thought of fingerprint or digital lock.
Now, I wonder how hard is it to install these locks.  Do I need to hire a 
specialist to assemble and install these kinds of locks, or I would be able to 
do it myself?  When it comes to the regular mechanical locks with keys, I 
always change them myself without hiring a Locksmith. I am not sure how hard it 
would be to install a digital lock by myself!

Well, I wasn't so interested in Alexa because of the same reason you 
mentioned.  However, I am interested in the Home kit idea and being able to 
change things as far as codes when away from home.  Now all I have to do is 
figure out the model number and where that might be.  It really sucks when 
the security company does not give you the paperwork that comes with all the 
pieces they install.  They seem to think that they no what is best and I 
hate to say it, but they don't.  I also have to get the installer code so 
that I can change up a few things on the whole system so that I can run it 
and change things as I want and need to rather than waiting for someone to 
come out and do it.

model) doesn’t actually have a motor so the single 9 Volt battery lasts 
forever because all it does is to engage a deadbolt which you turn by hand 
to lock and unlock the door. Less high tech, but also completely reliable 
and we now moved this lock to our patio door.

  If there are still fingerprint locks around I really advise you to stay 
away from them, if you don’t want to spend too much then you can get a lock 
like that electronic Schlage with the keypad I described for around $100 and 
it’s super-easy to use, you can program multiple codes and it’s easy  to 
program it without sight, all you need to know is the master/programming 
code which you can customize and then you of course need to write down the 
basic commands for adding or removing a code. It's usually something like 
enter the master code and press the lock button, then press 1 to add a code 
followed by the lock button, then enter a 4-digit code, press the lock 
button and re-enter it. This is just an example, but it’s that type of 
sequence.

  I am not sure if this particular Schlage can do one-time codes, but before 
we got the smartlock at my store we had a electronic keypad lock from Tamor. 
That one you could set a mastercode anywhere from 4 to 8 digits long and 
user codes then had to be the same length which means if you think a 4-digit 
code might be too insecure this one is nice because you can do a 5 or 7 
digit code which is more unusual. Anyhow, that one also allowed for one-time 
codes so if, for example, you wanted to give a plumber or electrician or a 
friend access to your house without giving them a permanent code, you could 
set up a one-time code and once it got used once it would no longer work. Of 
course with a smartlock this functionality is even further expanded, you can 
give your dog walker who picks up your dog every weekday between 8 and 8:30 
AM a code which only works during that time or you could simply ask them to 
call you when they are at the door and you can then unlock the door 
remotely.

  Hello Folks,

  Since I have the tendency to lock myself out from time to time, I thought 
I should explore the possibility of getting a door lock that works on 
fingerprint.  But It must have a Bluetooth connection to the phone so that I 
can do the settings, or change them when I want to, provided that the App is 
accessible with voiceover..

  Are you guys aware of any such product?

These locks are quite accessible as Sieghard describes. We have one with a 
touch screen which I can unlock with my iPhone or an actual key. The lock on 
our backdoor has a tactile keypad. Neither lock was all that expensive and 
booth are programmable. For example, the code for our housecleaners works only 
on Thursday afternoon and the code for the pet sitter is active only while we 
are on vacation.


I highly recommend these locks.

Not any more, quite a few electronic lock companies made fingerprint doorlocks 
years ago, I had one and so did a friend of mine, and they were the biggest 
pain in the neck.
Depending on how much you want to spend, you are much better off with an 
electronic lock with a keypad or a smartlock which you can unlock with your 
phone.
I have a Weiser electronic lock at my retail store which was actually installed 
by my alarm company and which has a keypad, but it also connects via the 
Zigbbee protocol to my alarm panel so I can unlock it via the alarm app 
remotely.
At home we just recently purchased a Schlage Sense smartlock which has home kit 
support. This means you can unlock it by telling SIRI “Unlock my front door” or 
from the home app. It has also a keypad, but it’s a touchscreen so you’d have 
to put at least a dot on the 5 or maybe put a tactile dot on the 1, 3, 5, 7 and 
9 to be able to use it manually.
Before we bought it we had a Schlage electronic lock on the front door and I 
really like it, too. It has a lock button at the top and underneat two rows of 
buttons, 1 to 5 and 6 to 0. The lock button is above the 3, so in the middle 
above the two number rows. This particular lock (forgot the model) doesn’t

Sorry, Samsung fans: The Galaxy S9 won't get an under-screen fingerprint sensor - BGR

2017-11-28 Thread M. Taylor
Sorry, Samsung fans: The Galaxy S9 won't get an under-screen fingerprint
sensor
By Chris Smith

The Galaxy S9 is coming in early January, various recent reports claimed, as
Samsung looks to introduce the new smartphone at CES 2018, more than a month
earlier than the expected MWC launch. The iPhone X's popularity is
apparently to blame, as Samsung is looking to release a competitor as fast
as possible.
The same reports already revealed plenty of details about the phone's
hardware, suggesting that the Galaxy S9+ will be the only device to sport a
dual camera on the back. They also claimed that the new phones will have the
same general design as their predecessor. A new report now says the Galaxy
S9 will indeed get a new fingerprint sensor, but it's not the kind of
fingerprint sensor you might want.

Let's face it, placing a fingerprint sensor under the display, like many
iPhone X rumors said this year, is a totally cool feature, especially for
tech fans. Being able to use a surface to scan fingerprints and project
images is brilliant, at least on paper. In real life, it's apparently
challenging to achieve. Even for Apple and Samsung. In fact, Apple will tell
you that it never considered such a solution for the iPhone X to begin with
and that Touch ID sensors are more or less dead now that Face ID is here.

The Galaxy S9 will have a traditional fingerprint sensor, and it'll be
placed on the back of the handset, just like the Galaxy S8. However, the
sensor will have a central location which should make it a lot more
accessible. It's also supposed to be a brand-new fingerprint sensor,
according to Korean-language ETNews, which says that Samsung plans to ink a
deal with a Taiwanese supplier for the Galaxy S9.

The report says the final contract was not signed, but that should happen
soon. The report also adds that the sensor will be placed on the rear case,
though this is old news since BGR exclusively confirmed the Galaxy S9's new
design last week. It's unclear what caused this particular change, and
whether the new sensor is in any way superior to the one used in the Galaxy
S8 series.

ETNews also notes the phone will come with iris scanning technology but
makes no mention of a 3D facial recognition system that would rival the
iPhone X's Face ID camera. Instead, the report says the phone will have a
regular camera and an iris recognition camera on the front.

Finally, ETNews says that Galaxy S9 mass-production will start in January.

does the same thing. I know when the phone is turned off that when turned back 
on it requires a pass code. However, I have re-done my fingerprints about 5 
times. They only work for maybe 3 times to get an app or open the lock screen. 
Then phone starts squawking about putting in my code or if an app I need to put

Fingerprint ID question

2017-01-17 Thread Nancy

Everyone,

I have an SE.  I have my thumb print assigned to be my ID.


What do I have to do to let my Thumbprint be all that is necessary for 
me to have full access to my SE.  There is no problem in making or 
receiving calls, but it seems the SE often asks for the 6 digit pass 
code.  How can I get the SE to stop asking me for my pass code no matter 
what I want to do with it?

Hi Denice, 

I too have had the same issue as you with 9.3. I updated to iOS 10 and still 
had the same issue, so I deleted and re-did my fingerprint again. Its a bit too 
early to really tell, but so far so good. It has worked for the last 3 times 
for me. 

If it still works tomorrow, I will be rapped! :)

Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

2016-02-04 Thread Kimber Gardner
In light of our recent discussion of the fingerprint recognition on
the iPhone I have something interesting to report. I've been doing
some very unscientific testing with my iPhone 6 and have found the
following.

When attempting to unlock the phone with my fingerprint, if I press
the lock button on the side of the device while holding my thumb over
the home button, nine times out of ten my print will be recognized and
the phone will unlock. If however, I press the home button to unlock,
the opposite is true and nine times of ten the recognition will fail.

I don't know what this means but I thought it was interesting.

  Kimmer,
Place the finger you use for Touch ID on the home button. Press the
home button but leave your finger there. In theory, the phone will
unlock and you will be placed on your home screen or wherever you last
left it. What you mentioned before about pressing the power/lock
button while a finger is on the home button would also work.

Sorry you're having so much trouble,
Wayne

So if your phone is locked and you place your finger on the home
button, it unlocks without you having to press the home button or
anything?

Because I have to press either the home button or the button on the
side to unlock the phone regardless of whether I use the fingerprint
or enter the passcode. The pressing of some button has to come first.

I guess I'm not understanding either.

  I'm not quite sure I understand what your doing.  All I need to do on my

when my phone is turned on is to place my index finger on the home

No pressing it, no moving my finger around.  I just hold my finger on the
sensor and it only takes a second or so to read it.  My index finger is
usually clean.  I know some people are eating snack food and such and get
poor results with the finger print sensor.  I figure if they can't figure
it
out for them selves that that's probably not a good idea then maybe an
iPhone isn't for them.  Rarely do I have a problem opening my 5s and when
I
do, it's usually because my finger is not clean.

Re: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

2016-02-04 Thread Gordan Radić

  
  
Hi!
I don't have problems like that with my 6S Plus. It is unlocking all
the time and the errors appear only if I don't put my finger to
cover the whole sensor. Regarding the article mentioned in his
thread, it is from 2013. with the actual 5S fingerprint sensor and
it is out of date because I didn't experience he single thing
mentioned in that article. For instance, I scanned my thumb and the
point finger in the portrait position so the fingers were put
parallely with the longer side edges. I'm able to unlock my phone if
I put my fingers vertical on the sensor so it is paralel with the
bottom/top edges of the device.

  S poštovanjem
Gordan Radić

RE: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

2016-02-04 Thread 'Ray T. Mahorney' via VIPhone
On this fingerprint topic I have never been able to get it to work and the 
defender case may or not have something to do with that?  I am also guessing 
that the finger has to be just about rock steady on the button when it's taking 
the reading?

Hi Kimber,

I think it may have to do how you press the home button. Especially on the new 
phones, the 6S and 6S Plus,  Touch Id is so incredibly fast and reliable that 
all you have to do is press down the home button with the finger you scanned 
and by the time you let go it's usually enough for the phone to unlock. On my 
old 5S I press the home button to wake up the phone and as I let go I continue 
to rest my thumb on the home button for about a second or a bit less and it 
unlocks for me very reliably.

Re: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

2016-02-04 Thread Lois Butterfield
I agree, the 6S is super fast at recognizing a fingerprint.  It is so fast 
that if I don't want the phone to unlock, I have to use another finger to 
push the home button.  Yes, sometimes I just want to look at the new 
notifications without unlocking the phone.  It is much faster recognition 
than my previous phone.


Take care,
Lois

Re: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

2016-02-04 Thread Wayne Merritt
Kimmer,
Place the finger you use for Touch ID on the home button. Press the
home button but leave your finger there. In theory, the phone will
unlock and you will be placed on your home screen or wherever you last
left it. What you mentioned before about pressing the power/lock
button while a finger is on the home button would also work.

Sorry you're having so much trouble,
Wayne

Yes, it does.

What I was trying to say is that I have more luck with my print being
recognized if I press the power button than if I press the home

Re: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

2016-02-04 Thread Patti Johnson
I updated my ipad not long after I got it and the censor went away.  
Before that I could put my finger on the home button and it would put in 
the code, now I have to type it in.
And I think my finger is clean, I'd not put a sticky finger on my 
devices, or I would hope I wouldn't, grin.

Because I have to press either the home button or the button on the
side to unlock the phone regardless of whether I use the fingerprint
or enter the passcode. The pressing of some button has to come first.

I guess I'm not understanding either.

When attempting to unlock the phone with my fingerprint, if I press
the lock button on the side of the device while holding my thumb over
the home button, nine times out of ten my print will be recognized and
the phone will unlock. If however, I press the home button to unlock,

I don't know what this means but I thought it was interesting.

RE: iphone 6s fingerprint reader

Hi Sarah,

There is always a small possibility that it is a hardware issue in which case 
you should contact Apple support or, if you live near an Apple Store, go there 
and get them to check it out and replace the phone if necessary.

Re: iphone 6s fingerprint reader

2016-02-01 Thread Wayne Merritt
I've had issues with my 6 with it not recognizing my fingerprint. It
was one of those things that happened for while and then it worked for
awhile. Since I've had the 6S though, rarely have I had issues with
having either my thumb or index fingers not recognized. Usually when
it occurs, my fingers are a little damp or dirty. The Touch ID sensor
is extremely fast though. More often, I just want to check the time
but I use one of my unlocking fingers, and after a beat the phone is
unlocked, when I just wanted to look at the lock screen.

No problems here, my 6S which I lost and now my new 6S Plus both are incredibly 
fast and also more reliable in recognizing my fingerprint. Maybe just delete 
your fingerprints and redo them. Also, how many do you put in? When I first had 
my 5S and when Touch Id was new I read somewhere it works better if you scan 
the same finger into several of the available spots. I did this and it resulted 
in exactly what you described, at first it was fine and it would work less and 
less well after some time. I then deleted all fingerprints and just did my 
thumb and it's never been an issue since.

RE: Dropbox & Fingerprint

2015-10-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Tracy,

Double tap the Settings tab at the bottom right of the screen. In Settings go 
to Passcode lock. You will have to create a passcode as a backup just as in 
iOS, then you can enable Touch Id.
OneNote now also supports Touch Id, so does the authenticator app Authy and I 
was very happy to read in the What's New section of an update to the Scotia 
Bank app (Canada only) that you can now enable Touch Id to sign in when you 
open the app. This makes this banking app so much more better because signing 
in is a snap and I can quickly check my balances, pay a bill, do a transfer etc.

Take care, Sieghard

When you first boot up the phone you have to enter in your security code, same 
in app store when you first use it after a reboot you will have to enter 
password. After that the finger print id should then be used.

Re: Any problems with the fingerprint scanner?

2014-09-15 Thread Lynn Schneider
Hi Chuck. I have the fingerprint scanner on the 5S and I love it. When you 
first set up the fingerprint scanner, you will be asked to move your finger 
around a little bit on the scanner so it can get all angles of your finger. I 
think you get up to five finger print settings. I did two fingers on each hand. 
This is a good idea for convenience and in case you have an unfortunate 
encounter with a meat slicer or something else terrible. Of course, nothing in 
computing is 100% secure, but if you are concerned about your fingerprints 
being stored in the cloud, no worries. They are stored on the chip in your 
phone and not in the cloud. Also, I'm fairly certain that if you start using 
the fingerprint scanner and don't like it, you can disable it. You can even 
label each finger print with the name of the finger. This way, you can delete 
any fingers you don't want, and you can even put in a finger from another 
person and label it in case they need to get into your phone, they can, just as 
long as you trust them. As I said, you don't even have to use it if you don't 
want to, but I think you'll find that it is really wonderful and you'll never 
want to go back. Hope this helps.

I don't know why, but I never got the fingerprint scanner to work for me on my 
5S. I followed the instructions from voiceover, trying to different fingers, 
but it never works. I'm not sure if you can delete things that are in there 
already. Or perhaps they never took at all. I don't know. I found it kind of 
discouraging, and I do wonder what I was doing wrong.

 Hi Chuck. I have the fingerprint scanner on the 5S and I love it. When you 
 first set up the fingerprint scanner, you will be asked to move your finger

 think you get up to five finger print settings. I did two fingers on each 
 hand. This is a good idea for convenience and in case you have an unfortunate 
 encounter with a meat slicer or something else terrible. Of course, nothing

 the fingerprint scanner and don't like it, you can disable it. You can even 
 label each finger print with the name of the finger. This way, you can delete 
 any fingers you don't want, and you can even put in a finger from another 
 person and label it in case they need to get into your phone, they can, just 
 as long as you trust them. As I said, you don't even have to use it if you 
 don't want to, but I think you'll find that it is really wonderful and you'll 
 never want to go back. Hope this helps.

Re: Any problems with the fingerprint scanner?

2014-09-10 Thread Alex Hall
I don't, but my sister has had a 5S since May and she loves it. The fingerprint 
sensor is still working just fine, and I've used it a few times just because I 
could. You press the lock or home button to wake up the phone, hold a finger 
against the home button as though you were going to press it (but don't 
actually press it), and the phone unlocks. In the near future, offering your 
fingerprint will do a lot more - pay for items, authenticate in apps, and so 
on. It's a great bit of technology that works well, and there's nothing to fear 
from it. Make sure your hands are free of dust or moisture when you use it and 
you'll be just fine.

Yes, iOS7 lets you store up to five fingerprints. No word on whether iOS8 will 
expand that, but five is sufficient for one finger for a trusted person or two, 
then three or four fingers on your own hands.

 Hi Kawal,
 
 When you say you set up a number of prints, do you mean you set up 
 different fingers or did you scan the same finger on several of the
 available 5 spots?
 When I first got my 5S I read somewhere that the recognition is more 
 successful if you scan, for example, your right thumb on 2 or 3 of the 
 available 5 spots. I did this and just as with you it worked well for 
 a bit and then it got worse. After the 7.1 update which was supposed 
 to bring improved recognition it actually got worse for me. Then at 
 one point I decided I would delete all my prints again and start over. 
 I did this and set up my right thumb just on the first fingerprint 
 spot. Ever since this my recognition rate is I would say very close to 
 100% and also much faster. I think having scanned my thumb 3 times on 
 different spots just caused the processor to do unnecessary 
 calculations and it apparently did more harm than good. I also found 
 that the success rate is much better if you don't use the very tip of 
 your finger but use the pad of your finger sort of half way between 
 the fingertip and the first joint. I only use the fingertip when it asks
 you to scan the edges of your finger.
 Like I said, I couldn't be happier now, it's fast and works absolutely 
 fantastically with the only exception being when I just done a bunch 
 of woodworking and I might have little cuts on my finger, glue residue 
 or stuff like that, but that's to be expected.

However, if I press and hold my finger on the scanner button until my phone is

Has anyone experienced the following with their 5 S Fingerprint?

I for example have set up a number of fingerprints on my 5S and a week later, 
none of them are recognised.  This has happened to me since I bought my I phone 
from the Apple store.  Well as I've sold this phone now so that I can buy my 
next I phone from the Apple Store when it's out hope that the Fingerprint will 
work better.

Thanks.

Kawal.

RE: Fingerprint.

2014-07-12 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Kawal,

When you say you set up a number of prints, do you mean you set up different
fingers or did you scan the same finger on several of the available 5 spots?
When I first got my 5S I read somewhere that the recognition is more
successful if you scan, for example, your right thumb on 2 or 3 of the
available 5 spots. I did this and just as with you it worked well for a bit
and then it got worse. After the 7.1 update which was supposed to bring
improved recognition it actually got worse for me. Then at one point I
decided I would delete all my prints again and start over. I did this and
set up my right thumb just on the first fingerprint spot. Ever since this my
recognition rate is I would say very close to 100% and also much faster. I
think having scanned my thumb 3 times on different spots just caused the
processor to do unnecessary calculations and it apparently did more harm
than good. I also found that the success rate is much better if you don't
use the very tip of your finger but use the pad of your finger sort of half
way between the fingertip and the first joint. I only use the fingertip when
it asks you to scan the edges of your finger.
Like I said, I couldn't be happier now, it's fast and works absolutely
fantastically with the only exception being when I just done a bunch of
woodworking and I might have little cuts on my finger, glue residue or stuff
like that, but that's to be expected.


Regards,
Sieghard

Re: Fingerprint.

2014-07-12 Thread John Panarese
I have had the same experience with Sieghard.  I had to redo all my prints 
and just stuck with one print for the two fingers I usually use.  When I set up 
the prints, I made sure I set my finger down from several angles during the 
creation process.  Also, remember that when you place your finger on the home 
button, it must be firmly set.  Also, be sure it's not damp or too cold either. 
 These factors seem to effect recognition, so, for example, if you have just 
washed and dried your hands and your finger might still be cold.

When I did my finger prints, when I heard lift your finger, I lifted my finger. 
 When I heard, place your finger, I then placed my finger in a slightly 
different place for example, the first time more on the tip of my finger.  
Second time, the tip of that finger as if I were typing on a keyboard.  Each 
time, I made the scan slightly different.  I have no problems at all getting 
the finger print read by the scanner.  I used my thumb and index finger of both 
hands as these would be the fingers I would most often use.

If those of you who use to use an optican, that is how I placed my thumb and 
index finger alternatively to get the finger print to recognise. I will try it 
again though and see what happens.

Thank you.

RE: Fingerprint.

2014-07-12 Thread Ron Pelletier
Sieghard,

The cuts and residue on fingers is the reason why I scanned 3 fingers in one
hand and the thumb and index in my left hand. That way, no matter what,
there is always a finger that works.  I mostly use my right index or right
thumb but, if needed, I have 3 other fingers.
I never lend my phone to anyone so I didn't need any spare print
possibilities. If a telephone is shared, well, you can't use them all
yourself

Hi Kawal,

When you say you set up a number of prints, do you mean you set up different
fingers or did you scan the same finger on several of the available 5 spots?
When I first got my 5S I read somewhere that the recognition is more
successful if you scan, for example, your right thumb on 2 or 3 of the
available 5 spots. I did this and just as with you it worked well for a bit
and then it got worse. After the 7.1 update which was supposed to bring
improved recognition it actually got worse for me. Then at one point I
decided I would delete all my prints again and start over. I did this and
set up my right thumb just on the first fingerprint spot. Ever since this my
recognition rate is I would say very close to 100% and also much faster. I
think having scanned my thumb 3 times on different spots just caused the
processor to do unnecessary calculations and it apparently did more harm
than good. I also found that the success rate is much better if you don't
use the very tip of your finger but use the pad of your finger sort of half
way between the fingertip and the first joint. I only use the fingertip when
it asks you to scan the edges of your finger.
Like I said, I couldn't be happier now, it's fast and works absolutely
fantastically with the only exception being when I just done a bunch of
woodworking and I might have little cuts on my finger, glue residue or stuff
like that, but that's to be expected.

Sieghard

Hello.

Has anyone experienced the following with their 5 S Fingerprint?

I for example have set up a number of fingerprints on my 5S and a week
later, none of them are recognised.  This has happened to me since I bought
my I phone from the Apple store.  Well as I've sold this phone now so that I
can buy my next I phone from the Apple Store when it's out hope that the
Fingerprint will work better.

Thanks.

When I set up the prints, I made sure I set my finger down from several
angles during the creation process.  Also, remember that when you place your
finger on the home button, it must be firmly set.  Also, be sure it's not
damp or too cold either.  These factors seem to effect recognition, so, for
example, if you have just washed and dried your hands and your finger might
still be cold.

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.

A passcode is always required if you enable this level of security, you cannot 
add fingerprints without first setting a passcode.

Also, if you do add Fingerprints and I really don't know why anybody who has a 
5S would not do this as it works fantastically, you still have to remember that 
if you reboot your iPhone that the first time you unlock it you do have to use 
the passcode.

The same is true if you try to unlock with your fingerprint and after 3 tries

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.

2014-05-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
A passcode is always required if you enable this level of security, you
cannot add fingerprints without first setting a passcode.

 

Also, if you do add Fingerprints and I really don't know why anybody who has
a 5S would not do this as it works fantastically, you still have to remember
that if you reboot your iPhone that the first time you unlock it you do have
to use the passcode.

 

The same is true if you try to unlock with your fingerprint and after 3
tries it does not work, at that point it will default back to the passcode.

Hi friends,

 

I need to consider some security on my IPhone 5s, just wondering what people
have found the best way forward, a pass code or fingerprint recognission?

Can you overwrite the fingerprint recognission with a pass code if required
for example?

 

Many thanks in anticipation,

RE: Fingerprint Recognission

2014-05-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
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.

Sieghard

Mail and fingerprint problems

2013-11-08 Thread Harry Bell
Running ios 7.0.3 on iphone 5S, two problems:
1. When reading my Mail messages, if a new email arrives while I am reading, 
the new email opens immediately in front of the one I had been reading
2. When I go to purchase a new app, a box appears asking me to input my Apple 
password to renew my fingerprint ID. I have tried disabling and then 
re-enabling my fingerprint ID and this did work for the next app purchase 
yesterday - but today it no longer works.
Are these known bugs or me doing something wrong?

Fingerprint Success

2013-09-25 Thread Les Kriegler
With the help of Jonathan Mosen's book, I figured out how to unlock my phone 
using the fingerprint I created.  You rest your finger on the home button to 
activate the print.  It does require for you to rest your finger on the right 
area, but practice will improve this skill.  I really like this feature.  I 
have a passcode set up, so if I am unable to use my phone, my wife has the code 
and she can unlock if necessary.  For every day use, the fingerprint will be 
used.  It's easier, and the passcode will not be verbalized for others to hear. 
 This is a feature I thought I would never use, but I'm pleasantly surprised to 
report that I will; it's a great addition with the iPhone 5S.
