[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 10thDmenxn:
No one is saying that people who still have problems with the fingerprint scanner "literally" want those problems. We were being facetious. We are saying that there are clear instructions on how to have it work almost flawlessly, and if you aren't diligent enough to exercise those instructions, then you must want the problems. The point you somehow missed is, the fp scanner only has problems when those who set it up, don't set it up properly. And there has been enough written about it, and videos made that at this point anyone with half a brain should have fixed it by now. If 95% of the S10 community doesn't have a problem with it anymore, then it's logical that it's the 5% who are still having problems that are doing something horribly wrong. This isn't rocket science...
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
I know this, I tried three different S10 phones. One wasn't so bad without the update and okay after the update, one was completely horrible without the update and still really had after it, and the one I have now worked well without the update and slightly better after.

With my hands the way they normally are, I have to press on the screen so hard when registering it that I need to push with my other thumb. If I simply exhale on my finger to warm it up, I barely need any pressure.

So I'm not sure it's technique, I think it's related to skin moisture. Normal hands probably work great while dry hands don't work so well.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Virgo_Guy:
Inspite of having two fp specific updates so far dry fingers frustratingly do not work at all sometimes and all those "how to register" do not do any justice in this particular issue.

The necessity to "hard press" can be significantly lowered by removing the included screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
You received two updates ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Virgo_Guy:
Exynos shipped with "ASAT" build on first sale after launch.

So yes 2 updates so far for the FP, one with "ASBA" build right out of the box and next one as "stand-alone" from Galaxy store 2 weeks back.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Djadityar:
Wow very late fingerprint update. Samsung is bad
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 10thDmenxn:
If you knew anything about ultrasonic technology, you'd realize the dryness of your finger has NOTHING to do with it. And if you are pressing hard to setup the fp, then you are doing it wrong, and causing your own problems. But I'm tired of telling people the same things, so I'm done with this. If you don't care to listen and learn, you can live with your problems...
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
Then you will need to explain to me why it takes me 2-3 tries to unlock with my skin being normal and when my finger is wet, it unlocks on the first try almost instantly.

Also, I don't believe you know as much as you think about ultrasounds because you would know that liquids carry ultrasounds very well while air is horrible. This is why if you ever go for an abdomen scan, they will ask you to drink a lot of water before so that your bladder is full of liquid. If it's full of air, they can't see much behind it as it will cause a huge ultrasound "shadow" because of all the air stopping the ultrasound waves from going through.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Virgo_Guy:
Totally DISAGREE.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Djadityar:
Using video 4k on s10 quality is very poor
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] corallus:
My S10+ will unlock instantly with a wet or damp thumb, if dry, can take 3 attempts.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinireland11:
Thats so true when my finger is really dry to the point where my finger can glide across the screen without making smudges it takes several tries for the FP to read...but when my finger is moist or damp a little its blazing quick

From Galaxy Store... S10+ Exynos..
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sswagonman:
Nice and it has improved the sensor?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Xode:
So far have not noticed any difference .... otherwise it works very well.. [emoji6]

Still not getting any updates on this in galaxy store.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Sebastiansm:
I got the update too, I noticed a little improvement with the recognition
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mikesmith2738:
Ah I don’t use the “Galaxy Store”. I guess I have to?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ojpd:
I just got the update and I can definitely see a difference. It recognizes my thumbs better & it's a little bit faster too.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] chronzz:
just got the update. will it work with magisk manager (root)? should i update?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Corv0:
99% of the apps there are absolute crap, you should use the galaxy store only to check for system app updates, they don't always notify you unless you manually check
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] siddhu23:
Yes make sure your device up to date also galaxy store too
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nugzo:
Has anybody on snapdragon received this?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Prashanthme:
Received mrng on the exynos version in dubai here. Not feeling much difference.. Anyway will see if I can try after re registering the finger prints
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] siddhu23:
Restart your phone also re register you finger print . You should place your finger the way you use normally.

Check and reply back.

Some of them telling not much improvement. I feel improved much, since previously 3 to 5 times i need to place my finger .but now just at once eventhough didn't register fp again after the update.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] IsocolXDA:
f my phone is rooted, will i get this update?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ssking:

I updated, rebooted the phone and re scanned the finger prints. Now it works like a charm! It's faster than ever, even with the screen of!

Got it this morning :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] OscarBaia:
Not yet deployed in Portugal.

Hope this works , cause fingerprint as it is really sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sswagonman:
Did the update today and re registered thumb prints and it seems to be a lot faster for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] infrasonic13:
Not yet here in Bulgaria as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mohamad Gahed:
How do you find the update in galaxy store ?

Is it just in updates under my page ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] beethoven1854:
I am using S10 Plus on AT&T. I see the update poped up but it is from Galaxy store inside my secure folder. It just says "Couldn't update". Why is there another Galaxy store app inside the secure folder? I couldn't find a way to remove it from there either.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] vintagerock:
Finally I think Samsung got the fingerprint scanner working like it should! I just got the update this morning from the Galaxy store and the fp scanner seems to be working flawlessly. I tested it about 20 times and didn't fail once. I also don't have to press hard or hold or anything weird anymore. Just tap it and it unlocks quickly.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Prashanthme:
Yes.. Rebooted and re registered the finger print again.. Now works flawless.. 1 out of 10 misses the pattern...
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mohamad Gahed:
I did not get the update till now :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] dhorgas:
This notification appeared for me. When I tied to install it, it failed to install. Had to remove Secure Folder. After removal, the notification disappeared and was never installed. So much for that update.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mago988:
italy tim arrived.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
Just got it too. In Canada. I do see an improvement. Response time is slightly faster and recognition rate is higher.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lightmastertech:
Anyone that had the update, can you extract and upload the new app?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ramanpatel997:
Still waiting for update in India.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] UnLucky12:
Got the update here in Norway. Snapdragon version.

So far, it has been a slight improvement with higher successes of unlocking the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 10thDmenxn:
I thought I got it today, but it was the security update instead. My version is still FP 2.0.4.1. I have an unlocked S10+ in America.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mosec:
Is this update just for the snapdragon version or for the Exynos as well? It would be cool if someone uploaded the app.

I can't seem to find this app on my Exynos S10+ though
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodix:
For both models. I didn't receive it yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Zmantech:
I have not gotten it yet TMobile
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] riz157:
The latest update has done wonders for the fingerprint unlocking. Quicker works brilliantly a massive improvement.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermidas:
I have Sprint also. Did you just randomly get a notification, or did you prompt it some kind of way. I tried to go to software update, and no luck. Same with Galaxy store, nothing there when i went to updates either.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 10thDmenxn:
The absolute two worst things about Samsung, is their pigheaded mindset against rooting, and they are the WORST UPDATING company on the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bu6ona:
I'm from Bulgaria too, and I receive the update early this morning. My carrier is A1, but the update come from the galaxy store, so I think the carrier doesn't matter.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] FalconFX:
If you guys are wondering. Check out this video for how good the update made the sensor https://youtu.be/0OALa8TBLUc
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] peyes:
I got the update but it is not working. It keeps saying "Couldn't update".
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jpbl1976:
Same here...
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] OscarBaia:
Update deployed in Portugal

S10+

Slightly improved but not that much. Still worst than on P30 although different tech
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mzsquared:
I was wondering about possible ways to fix the Ultrasonic Fingerprint sensor and how Samsung would approach this problem with touch responses.

Don't want to rain on a parade day but, what if they just purposely crippled that 'ultrasonic' 3D just to make the sensor less sensitive, thus more customers friendly?

I mean, how can we (the end product receivers) determine if this is still an ultrasonic 3D sensor with, say, just for the purpose of the argument, 1 million of AI inputs related to specific finger print details? Maybe, because of all the problems they said: “ to heck with it, if it doesn't work let's downgrade it to 100k AI inputs or make it 2D, yeah, it's less secure now but nobody has the expertise to know that.

Well, it's working now right?

CSC: XME Malaysia

Just received the update notification couple mins ago and installed. Deleted fingerprint and enter again, during fingerprint registration process it's already significantly can fell the improvement but when u really use it's faster abit but still can miss... it's more about how long u need to let your finger place on the scanner. Just leave it there until its unlock... use it as what we had been using for like those physical scanner, my 2 cents of thought :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] dominicstg2:
im on a unlocked s10+ got it from jb hi fi where did you get yours? i still havent gotten the update
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lightmastertech:
I just tested it like the guy in the video did, and with a simple tap mine unlocks almost instantaneously, exactly like he showed in the video. Thing is, I am still on Biometrics 2.0.4.1.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] rp4k:
if you are running magisk root you can do this update with no issues. (NOT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO INSTALLED TWRP)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] romeokk:
A noticeable improvement is that, before update, if my finger is completely dry, the phone couldnt recognize my finger at all(and keep asking me to press harder). Now, my dry fingers can be scanned.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nugzo:
exynos or snapdragon?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Wacky2bakky:
I randomly got a notification early this morning of the update. It was in the Galaxy Store
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nugzo:
Really? I had to read your post 3 times to see if you were joking or not. I think you'd actually LOVE to have "rain on our parade." Since nobody has the "expertise" to know if it's actually raining or not.. You've given me a lot to ponder....

How do we know we even have an Infinity-O screen with Corning Gorilla Glass 6? I bet they actually gave us GG4 and just lied to us. Or a 4100MaH battery? They just gave us the s9 battery and re-labeled it. what about RAM? Damn do we have the 8GB or 12GB that we were sold ? Or do we have half of that and Samsung is purposely tricking us? Too much CNN lately? I can keep going.... How about accept that as issues are reported, Samsung is doing what they can to come up with a fix. They are listening to us! (maybe literally, e.g., Amazon Alexa) So far Samsung is doing a great job! This fix being part of it. Thanks Samsung!

On Sprint, Snapdragon US version... Still no biometrics update ?

Could someone who downloaded the updated biometric FPS version, please post it as an APK to download and install for others who don't have it yet? Because if the update comes through the Galaxy store and not through the carrier itself, it makes no sense that everyone doesn't have access to it all at the same time.

Are you check in software update or galaxy store?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JRich442:
It came from the Galaxy store. I went to the galaxy store and checked in my apps and there was 3 updates for bixby and then an important security update from the Galaxy store just popped up in my notifications panel.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermidas:
That's lameeeee! Yesterday I checked in Galaxy store and had those same 3 Bixby updates, but no security update with it. The way Samsung is rolling this update out is stupid, especially since it's apparently not carrier based.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] infrasonic13:
S10+ exynos here and after the fingerprint update the phone does not go into deep sleep. The only way to fix it for several hours is to restart. In other words the same as it was before the ASCA update.

I just got update. We'll see how much better it is
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Ati75:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermidas:
Has anyone found a way to force the update? It's ridiculous that I still haven't got it yet and so many others have. Especially since it's apparently through the Galaxy store and not even carrier based.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] todd3835:
There's speculation that it's a staggered rollout. Your right that it comes from the Galaxy App Store.

My guess is that it's being staggered because even at only 6mb (one person showed 10mb but mine was 6.6mb I believe), the millions of devices could choke the app store from not just people installing the update, but also other apps.

That said, I understand your frustration. I waited days for it to show up and was frustrated because using a WSD, I was already at a disadvantage on the FPS. I had few problems with the pre-installed protector. With the WSD before the patch I was averaging 4/5 success rate, sometimes failing 3 or 4 times in a row, other times working perfectly. Toss in my dry skin, and I was having problems. With the update I rarely fail twice in a row, and usually only when my hands are dried out.
