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.

I did this and just as with you it worked well for a bit -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.
