Yeah I installed the app fresh and all was working OK but then it wouldn't accept my fingerprint when trying to access the fingersecurity app itself even though it did at first.

Tapped It!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
And you have the latest version from play store?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Reechings:
Yeah it happened to me multiple times causing me to restore titanium backups then I did a fresh install from the play store and it seemed to be OK but soon after I could no longer get the fingerprint swipe to work for accessing the app itself.

Tapped It!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hmm okey that is strange...

Do you have any special root apps?

I will look in to it tomorrow :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Reechings:
I do have quite a few xposed modules running so there's a good chance of a conflict. I will troubleshoot it when I get some time but I'm sure it's on my end not yours. Thanks!

Tapped It!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Okey let me know if you find something.

Baybe I can do something :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
after update from google play: I am use alliance rom.

First I bought...

I wish to pay and the second, but application closes, can not pay.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
That is strange could you send me the FingerSecurityLogs.txt file on your internal sd card(if it is there)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
Yet there is no such file, but I know it was there!

but after installation of the market has changed location..... or do not know......
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Well the location is not changed. Did you try to restart your phone?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
this file does not exist! believe me.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I believe you. That means that there were no errors :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sharingan:
hey brother with this app i can put finger print password o any app like gallery , a game or like whatsapp right ??
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] hazri1974:
Yes..
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Yes you can. You can lock any app on your phone ;)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sharingan:
i will give this a shot

thnaks bro
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sharingan:
there are many apps like this in play store and in most of them it is written that theses apps are for prank purpose only

so please can someone give me link to this app with name of developer so that i can recognize this in playstore
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Okey my name is Rick Clephas

And the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rickclephas.fingersecurity
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sharingan:
thanks mate you are awesome:laugh::laugh:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sharingan:
nice app

just tried it

just one problem

it protects the apps that i chose but it does not show the slid area for finger print that we get on homescrren

i think you understand what i am saying

the white dotted area on which we have to slide is not shown

i dont know if this is a bug or only i am having it but please try to fix it
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Heey that is right. You can hide the interface. And if you have enabled the homescreen fix it is also hidden.

I am working on it. I changed some stuff and I cloned the dots. I only need to add an alternative password option. And when that is done I will publish the new version :)

I hope you don't hat it to much until then. :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sharingan:
hate it ??

no way brother as your efforts are appreciable

also i cannnot remenber what settings in your app i changed { i think i checked hide inteface }

and after that the lock disappeared from all the apps that i chose to unlock through this app

i mean i could then open those apps without fingerprint lock i then disabled hide interface but found same thing so uninstalled for a while

when you update the app i will definitely be the one to install it i swear :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::good::good::good::good:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Okey good to hear. I will let you know when I update the app :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] moizhaque:
Little Request

[MENTION=5950828]Rick Clephas[/MENTION] . Awesome Job as Mention before :good:.. Its Getting Better Day by day.. Little Favor if its possible :confused:. As i have Register 3 finger so is it possible that i can Assign 1 register Finger to Gallery app or File Manage and 2 register Finger's for the rest of the app to Open ... Hope you getting the point.Hope its possible ;)

Thanks and Great Job :cowboy:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Unfortunately that is not possible since Samsung does not give this option :(
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Reechings:
Hey Rick,

Just did a fresh install off the play store and I think I figured out my earlier problem. If I set Fingersecurity as one of the protected apps it won't let me back in. This isn't really necessary to set though because you have it set to automatically ask for your fingerprint anyways when you open the app.

Tapped It!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Thanks I think there is a loop hole there. I will fix that :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
removed.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
I do not know what I paid. I paid for?

I bought but do not know for what?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
is very bad. My password contains letters, bring back the original samsung keyboard.

I asked above what I paid?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
You bought the Location related security. You can now go to the location settings tab and enabled safe / unsafe wifi networks
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am sorry but in order to fix the issue where you had to open the app twice I had to change the alternative password to a pin
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
thanks for answers, and tis great app :good:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] tomtomdecrab:
Hi Rick Clephas

like your application

but FingerSecurity sometimes does not work.

I locked the BBM app, but I can open it without FingerSecurity

how do I know why I can open BBM without FingerSecurity?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
how enable? thank :D nice app :cowboy:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] mikeledisagitter:
Nice idea! you should implement the possibility to swipe your finger in different directions for the same finger in order to open differents apps!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Well your phone stops the app because it needs the space. On the moment I don't have a solution for this but I am trying to find one :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Unfortunately Samsung does not provide this.....
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] mikeledisagitter:
It's a pity! maybe the next api :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
You need to go to the Settings app and then to Security and then to Notification acces then you can allow FingerSecurity to read the notification and the option will be available in the app :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I hope so. It would also be nice if you could use different fingers for apps. But that is to Samsung if that is ever going to happen :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Reechings:
Hey Rick, any luck finding a way to auto restart to overcome issue of "killing" the app when it asks for fingerprint? Maybe even some way of shifting the app out of the foreground or something so the "kill" can't target it?

Tapped It!

EDIT: Guess I should have tested again before commenting. Just realized it's already fixed!!! You DA man!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
No problem :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] tomtomdecrab:
Hi Rich

Can you tell me what about space?

I have 637 free ram like snapshot, and 9gb internal memory free space, it is OK?

I can open BBM without FingerSecurity..
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Can you open only BBM without or all apps?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] tomtomdecrab:
all applications that have been locked with fingerSecurity
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Okey and that includes FingerSecurity self?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] tomtomdecrab:
No

FingerSecurity work fine
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Okey thank you I will look for a solution
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Tsara Bomba:
Nice app.

Downloaded.

Many thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
For the people who don't want the app to be killed or uninstalled. You can enable advanced security :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] adreano:
FC

FC after the last updating, even after reinstall :(

Still 5 stars in Google play.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Can you post or send me the FingerSecurityLogs.txt file on your internal sdcard
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] hazri1974:
One request bro...can u add fingersecurity to lock folder created by users?...hope u can do that bro...tq
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am not sure if I can do that. But I will look if I can :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Christiancs1969:
Themes are a great addition. Working great here...I also use the on ROM so its nice to match them ..very ☺ happy
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Well today is the first school day again. I will still add your requests but it will go a little slower. :)

Hope you guys don't mind.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] FlexiPack:
Hi Rick,

First off, thank you very much for the app, it's great! I am having a couple of issues though. First is battery drain, I'm getting 2.5-3% battery drain in background CPU usage. Is this normal?

Secondly I've found a bug: I've turned on FingerSecurity for Google Drive but this sometimes causes problems when saving a file from Gmail to Drive, only sometimes though. The other is when clicking a link to a google drive doc that someone else has posted, it starts to load up the file in drive but then kicks me back to the original browser page.

All in all, a great app, looking forward to more updates. I would appreciate some input on the battery drain, thanks.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Yes the battery drain is normal. The app needs to constantly check if you are opening an protected app.

And your problems with drive are strainge since the app should not effect the app.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] FlexiPack:
Thanks for the quick reply. Shame about the battery but I can live with it. I'll keep testing with drive, it doesn't always happen which is odd.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I will also look at the drive problem. But I think I can't do much about it...
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
in place to improve application, you ask money for theme.

immediately have to ask for money for every release.

I paid two issues in application!

better be less felt and fix such application must go, it always crashe, I said to restore basic keyboard, My password contains letters and numbers and all!

and the theme should be offered gift from you if I bought the basics!

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] brhoomy101:
cooooooooool bro :good:

nice app thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] PearLRoX:
A very great and useful app but..it drain more battery :(
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am aware of the battery problem. This is caused by the app checking if the in app products are purchased. For some reason the does not close the connection after a reboot.

A quick fix is to open the app once after reboot. Then it will close the connection after the check. ;)

I am working on a fix for this :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] cm2003:
I'm using AC Display as lockscreen replacement. Is there any way to unlock my phone using your App?

Gesendet von meinem SM-G900F mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
No on the moment there is no way to use my app to unlock your phone.

But I like the idea and I will put it on my to do list. Unforunatelly it is going to take some time. First I am making a new version with new UI and some cool other new features. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] PearLRoX:
Allright. Thanks for the tip.. looking forward to a next update! ;)

Keep up the good work!!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] tonymut:
Appreciation

Honestly, I thought it was impossible until you came around! Kudos Rick! :good:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Thanks.:D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] pepe100:
Great app thanks. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] AskinSavascisi:
Great app man, keep up the good work
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] hrithikgupt:
Rick this app is a real deal but I have a feature request for app please implement lock on mobile data, WiFi, Bluetooth, nfc etc like in Applock Please! This will make this app one in all security solution for S5.Thanks in Advance!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi,

Bluetooth will be available in the new big update. The other you mention are good ideas too and I will create these functions as well. But this will take sometime.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] hrithikgupt:
Thanks ya! Sometimes is OK but implement these features Thanks!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] wajiman:
[MENTION=5950828]Rick Clephas[/MENTION] love this app. I can make it a system so by pushing it into priv-app folder right to prevent it being closed??
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] chris_barsoum:
This app is awesome and thanks for it. I'm just posting something I noticed. I selected customize settings for each app and went to GO SMS and selected off for protect notifications. I then tested it out and it was still protecting the notification. I went back to the setting for the app and the custom setting to protect the notification was switched back to on.

Basically I want to protect notifications for other apps except this one but use the finger print to secure it.

Not sure if anyone else has the same issue
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi,

Yes there are some other people who experience this. I am working on the problem. NOTE:you need custom setting enabled in the setting and in the prltected app settings and then disable protect notifications.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi,

I am not sure if you can't stop a system app. But FingerSecurity has a option for this. If you enable advanced security (then you need to grand administrator permission NOTE: FingerSecurity won't use any of these permissions) then you can't uninstall or force stop FingerSecurity.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] chris_barsoum:
Thanks for your quick reply. I do have the custom setting enabled and I've disabled protect notifications. It enables itself when I get a text
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] FlatOutRU:
Does this app requires knox 0x0 ?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
No this all only requires that your device is a samsung with fingerprint reader
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Braggster:
Just wondering why I got a message from I theft to say someone is trying to access my apps

This has happened since I download this app from play store lol

W
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi i am not sure why that is happening. Could you provide me a link to I theft? Then I can take a look for you.:D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] SmakBerry:
Awesome app, thank you!!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Borfas:
**** APPLICATION IF NOT GO FOOTPRINT OF FIRST OR SECOND, THAT sucks!

Sorry I have offered every penny, AND MONEY IS SOMETHING AMAZING FOR THEME

The application has 17 mb consume all the battery is ****!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am working on this problem
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] fgth90:
Hello,

Really a great application.

I wonder if it's possible to temporary disable this app for short time (5 , 10,... minutes).

For a short travel in car for example, this option should be great cos it's not easy to use when driving.

Keep the good work

Franky
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi,

I understand this is not easy when driving. I will see if I can add a feature like this.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] fgth90:
Yep, thanks in advance.

Best regards

FingerSecurity App

Hey, AMAZING app... unfortunately i'm not able to use it :(

I get an "Undefined Error" page every time I open the app up. Not sure why it's happening. But I would LOVE to use this! I want to be able to let people use my phone and not worry about them seeing my work emails / personal Facebook messages.

I am currently on the new Galaxy Note 4. Not sure if that's the reason or not. But great job on this app. Love how you're solving something that's very wanted and needed.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am sorry on the moment the Note 4 is not supported. When I get back from school I am going to work very hard to get it finished within a day or two!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] koko115:
After update from play store, i dont have a widget, and still have finger security icon in android notification area. How disable this ? Please fix this.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am going to add an option to hide the notification and I am going to create the widget again. I had to update now because the Note 4 is being released and it was not supported in the old version.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Syed Qayyum:
To remove the notification shown at the notification bar is easy... go to setting - application manager - find fingerprint security app - untick the show notification ?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
That is not a good idea. Then the protect notifications option and the new app is installed notification won't be shown either.

I am going to add an option for this. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I uploaded a new version (2.1). In this version there is an option to hide the notification.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] bhebepao:
Widget

Please Include again the widget. The widget disappeared after the update.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] chrispaper:
Can the app unlock the phone???
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
No the app can't. Samsung has this feature in there phone by default :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] chrispaper:
But with this app is the unlock faster and better
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am glad you think it is faster and better. But since Samsung has this feature I don't think I am going to implement it :confused:
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] pepe100:
The new update V.2.1 available in the play store looks awesome and is faster. Thanks Rick for this great app.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] pepe100:
Some comments after using the new update of the app I can not find the widget. It is not protecting system applications like recent apps (System UI) and others. The previous version could protect more applications, please fix it I love this app.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] skivnit:
Btw the app crashes when I select protect by different fingers
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Thanks for the feedback :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am creating a new widget. So yes on the moment it is not there.

And I am going to look if I can add all the applications again :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi did you click report button?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] ElenaPower:
I cannot use the alternative method (code). When I tap on the apps icon where the app askes for the finger I only get the imput field for the code but no numbers an dok button to type the code.

/EDIT:

Now it works, I had to re-apply the code in the settings that I already used before the last app update.

It would be helpful when the keyboard is already opened and you don't have to tap in the input field to open it.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
If you click the input field. The keyboard pops up
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] skivnit:
Yes I did
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Okey. I am going to see what I can do :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] ElenaPower:
Yes, that's correct. Then I type the code and tap 'ok' and the keyboard disappears but nothing more happens. I cannot open the app through the code.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Then your code is incorrect. In the update it is reset to 1234 because i secured it more :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] ElenaPower:
Ok, I set it new in settings and now it works :D

Would be helpful when the keyboard is already opened and you do not need to tap in the input field especially because the cursor is already flashing in the input field.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I will see if that is possible :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] fgth90:
Hello Rick,

Any news about this option possibility?

It'd be great.

Thanks

Franky
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi,

In the new version (2.1) yiu can use bluetooth as location base securtiy. So if you have a carkit you can add it to the safe locations. I am still working on a long timeout :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] fgth90:
That's a good idea.

Will have a look and report.

Thanks

Franky

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 PM ----------

Good work Rick, BT pairing seems to work.

I saw you added another option like "no new fingerprint lock if screen stays on".

That's perfect now.

Thanks

Franky
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Yes I did hope you like the features. :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] fgth90:
I personaly have carkit so no need a "long timeout" option anymore.:D

But others users maybe will.

Keep the good work

Franky
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Yes or if you have a friend who uses your phone. And you trust him / her

I am planning to upload a new version later today. I hope it will be fixed with the update :)
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] pepe100:
Are you going to add the option to protect system apps like System UI in this new update?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
I am going to add the option but not in this update. :D
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] btemtd:
I just bought one option - No notification every time a new app comes along, I now have it hidden and not notifying me about ANYTHING. I have chosen to lock 1 APP = bitcoin wallet :)

works awesome - you should start accepting bitcoin for your work, we really need to get bitcoin up in XDA
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Hi,

Can you explain how you see the bitcoin thing. because I don't really see what you mean :confused:

After i open a protected app it returns to the home screen instead of opening the app... Please fix this issue... its a beautiful app...
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Thanks for reporting. Is this happening always or in particular situations?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] catmat:
In my case - only first time returns to the home screen instead of opening the app. Second time always successful.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Rick Clephas:
Thanks for reporting.

I am going to fix this
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sarbe:
As catmat reported I have this problem but for me the app doesn't open no matter how many times I try. Great app though mate.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] sp0r0s:
i am using Lockdown Pro and its happening there also. maybe its a bug related to the phone?
