Me too, a couple of days after reboot it stops working until I reboot again.

I always thought that it was related to the boost app that cleans the phone after a couple of days
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] xMelBurNx:
Hello everyone. I had also the same issue the last week.

The last week I went on a Spa and I used the phone on the water to do some pics and videos. After that the fingerprint wasn't working very well. I washed with clear water and more or less it was still working somehow. 2 hours later the fingerprint stopped to respond. I restarted normally and safe mode and nothing fixed. Then I washed with clear water again and worked for 20 min. Then the fingerprint scanner stopped to work completely.

After two days, I let it dry. Then I made all the possibilities that you guys posted here to fix it. I did factory reset from setting and then also on recovery mode too, but the fingerprint setup disappeared from the settings. Two days ago I contacted to HTC and I they told me to go to Settings > Apps > Fingerprint scanner > Delete data. But it didn't work, so they told me to send them to repair it. I was very sad to read that.

Yesterday I took the U11 with me while I was taking a bath. I made sure to make it wet the phone and the ports. and micro holes, speakers,... And GODNESS, when I dried up and I put my finger accidentally on the scanner, It appeared me on the display a message to set the fingerprint scanner. I was like WTF? I set my fingers, I restarted the phone and It was working perfectly. The fingerprint setup it didn't appear on the setting, but If I go Settings > Security, It appears a tab to configure the fingerprint sensor.

Now, 12 hours later, the fingerprint works normally.

So if someone still has the same issue, just wash it hardly with clear water.

I hope this "story" might help. Good Luck

Home button/finger print scanner stopped working after i got a screen replacement. I never had any issues before the screen replacement. After the screen replacement, the finger print option showed up in the settings, but nothing showed up after trying to enter. After formatting/factory reset, it went away completely. What could be the issue? Any solution?

You saved my day!

I've tried all workarounds mentioned above, but only washing the phone in water did the trick.

Hello guys.

I had same issuse.

I had wet hands and pressed home button with wet hands in extensive period (1 hour) and home button stopped working.

I tried every advice in this thread.

Left it 3 days, restart every day, home button still didn't worked

Cleaned cache, factory reset, RUU restore, clean data fingerprint apk

Getting home button wet again with water

Nothing helped.

My solution was next. Get rubbing alcohol ( isopropyl ) containing 70% or more percentage of alcohol.

Soak only home button with it and left it untouched whole night with phone turned off. It will soak in and dissolve any water left and impurities such as oils from your thumb skin.

I turned on my phone in the morning and home button was working, and I got window asking me to set up fingerprint (it was missing before in settings).

To get better idea.

I put enough drops of alcohol to cover entire home button, but not to spill on charge port. Left it over night with phone turned off.

Rubbing alcohol is isopropyl alcohol, which is good solvent

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopropyl_alcohol#Uses

Thanks all for advices in thread, and I hope someone will be able to fix home button as I did :)

Has anyone had this problem recently? I have a 128GB 6GB U11 running LeedDroid and Magisk, and recently had this problem. After three days it appeared to fix itself. However this week it's happened again and it's been five days now. I have tried all the methods in the thread (apart from using alcohol on the button) and nothing has worked.

I have not got the phone wet, it may have got some moisture from my arm band after going to the gym, but I do not think that would have caused it. I am unable to go into fingerprint scanner in settings either. Have run out of idea's.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] hammered58:
I have had to use the alcohol trick twice now and both times it has worked great. My only twist was I waited until it evaporated and that worked too,, about 2 hours. Good luck
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] mightywhites29111971:
Thanks, I'll give this a go. The strange thing is that the fingerprint scanner in settings doesn't open either. Is rubbing alcohol on the home button going to fix this as well?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] hammered58:
That part was not a problem for me as finger print settings menu would open but would not function as it showed my finger constantly pressing the sensor.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] mightywhites29111971:
Left some alcohol on the button overnight and when I woke up most of it was still there. Wiped it down and dried it off. Went to settings and tried to open the fingerprint scanner settings - and they opened! Couldn't believe it, but my joy turned to dismay when I couldn't add any fingerprints. Have just got back from the gym and thought I'd try it once more before applying alcohol tonight and it is now fully operational. Very happy, but there is obviously an issue with the button if we're having to self repair.

What a great news... I'm out for work and tried all the advised solutions with no issue... Was waiting for you and the alcohol solution... Looks promising

Isopropyl alcohol solution works simply great!!
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] buttie:
I also can confirm that isopropyl alcohol works. In my case I've left it first just for under 2 hours and after turning the phone on, scanner worked... for 5 seconds more or less... So I've soaked it in alcohol again and left it for the night, and now it's working for a few hours already without any hiccups.

TL;DR: If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again.

None of the ways worked. Soaking the Home button in isopropyl alcohol also. Do you have any ideas yet?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] yalickit:
I had this issue yesterday, i decided the wash the home button like people above with just water. I turned the phone back on and then the phone locked up, bricked, as I was entering the menu settings. Bricked and stayed bricked with screen on and orange battery light flashing as I only had 8% battery. Couldnt turn it on or off. Nothing would respond.

I left it hoping battery would go flat and turn off and went to bed. Woke up to find it had turned off. Put in on charger. Fully charged and then turned it back on. Home button now working again.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] ahiaba2:
SOLVED: Place a film of Baby Wipes, between your thumb and the fingerprint sensor or scanner and keep rubbing on the scanner up and down continuously. In about a minute or two, the screen would start responding to the scanner's touch. Drop the wipes and try normally. Pop me an email if it worked for you at dr.ahiaba@gmail.com, just to say thanks.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Pikeucf:
I tried everything. Here's what finally worked for me. Sent phone back to HTC. Probably worst decision I ever made,. Received phone back 4 months later after several message exchanges with the BBB. HTC finally took note how abysmal their customer support was and sent me a new phone. Bottom line, the phone is not water proof by any standard. Do not get it wet! I wouldn't even sneeze on it.

2 nights ago my fingerprint /home button stopped working on my HTC u11, tried everything on here apart from isopropyl alcohol , HTC live chat told me to do a factory reset this didn't fix the problem , I lost finger print scanner in menu after this as well. They want me to pay to send it back so they can look at it, $50aud to inspect it and $40usd for parts delivery, I'm like what parts you don't even know what's wrong with it. Tomorrow I'll buy some isopropyl alcohol ..... Hope it works

HTC apparently have no idea about this issue I told them even a monkey could google it and see how many ppl have this issue.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] George Keretchashvili:
Isopropyl Alcohol helped!

The problem with my U11 started about 24 hours ago from now, after having the phone in the bathroom and having couple of water drops on it. The same happened many times before without any problem as the phone claims to be water resistant, so nothing unusual or new.

After this, I have noticed Fingerprint/Home button was not working and appeared to be pressed constantly with a "Cover the fingerprint scanner completely" message on the screen and was not responding to any touches.

I also had problem with charging as the scanner behaved as it was constantly touched triggering the screen on again and again and somehow interrupting charge process. Had to remove all fingerprints and disabled the unlock feature via fingerprint/home button touch.

Here's what I have tried:

rebooting

rebooting in safe mode

removing all fingerprints and trying to re-add, but without luck (getting "try to cover the scanner completely" message in red as it was already covered)

wiping the cache partition

used hair dryer to dry out if there was some fluid inside

soaking fingerprint sensor with drops of water

washing the whole phone! (as U11 meant to be water resistant)

and finally what helped was dropping isopropyl alcohol on scanner, rubbing and tapping it with a pad with for a minute or so :cool:

I have used several alcohol prep pads saturated with 70% isopropyl alcohol - squeezed it over the scanner and used the same button to rub and tap.

Best guess here is that some dirt particles or maybe drained fluid remainings were accumulated over/under the scanner that was causing the problem and alcohol cleaned it out.

Hi,

I want to install Lineage OS and the first step is to unlock the device.

The problem is that unlock device tool works only on Lollipop but Lineage requires Marshmallow for installation.

So my question is:

Can i downgrade the device to Lollipop, unlock the device, and then upgrade the device to MM, or when i upgrade the unlocking will be reverted?

Thanks

I downgraded my phone back to LL and unlocked the device successfully (the screen when starting the phone was white) but then when i upgraded to MM to be able to install LineageOS 14.1 the startup screen is black again.

How do i know if the bootloader is locked? and if it is locked how can i unlock it?

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
If you are on mm bootloader,once it's unlocked, you will get a verification error message when you boot. It's harmless, but at least it is an indicator that you are unlocked.

The verification error message is only when i boot to twrp, not when i do normal boot right?

Does it look like this? View attachment 4207771
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gifnooky:
Yup, exactly like this. It just starts from upper place in the screen.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
It's a hardware issue with your screen. It's from a few bad pixels in the top line of where it starts to go bad. A temporary work around is to use an overlay app like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.applay.overlay

Use it to make a small white square overlay and position it over the top edge of the bad area. You'll have to experiment with the size and position until the rest of the screen is clear again.

The only real fix is to replace the screen. Which, if you're handy and can do it yourself, is not very expensive at all. (under $20 US) there are several YouTube videos that show how.

---------- Post added at 08:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

One other thing, the replacement screen most likely won't be gorilla glass like the original. So you might want to get a tempered glass screen protector.

If you came from the latest miui(7.5.4 onwards) then no.

You always have to use latest firmware from MIUI ROM..
