Google has acknowledged this issue and AFAIK Google was planning to push an update to improve the Pixel 6 fingerprint reader.

Make sure your device has got the latest updates ,if it's updated but still having the issue, hopefully future upadates will fix it.

Meanwhile Goggle has offered some workaround to get it working which includes pressing on it firmly until it unlocks.Hope this helps!

If your primary concern is scratch protection and rely on your case for drop protection, then you should consider TPU screen protectors.

I have had issues with multiple glass screen protectors(I did have some success - but after the Dec update, even these stopped working well), but the 1st TPU one I tried has been working well for the past few days. The one I got were UniqueME TPU ones from Amazon UK.
[FYT Android Head Units] zmylna:
Hello everyone.

I'm writing a new thread because I couldn't find answers in the specific device threads, and the problem is with two different ones.

I own two devices - a Joying Intel Airmont SC9853I and an Isudar QLED UIS7862.

I have a strange problem on both devices, which is that applications automatically start up when the device is rebooted or woken up.

At the moment the problem is with Youtube or Spotify and system settings.

On the Joying device, Youtube starts up every time.

I have to close Youtube to continue using the device.

On the Isudar device, the settings app starts by itself.

Interestingly the settings open right away in the Fabric section.

Normally Fabric section requires 123456 code to access it. After the settings app starts up by itself, it doesn't ask for the passcode.

If I enter any other settings section and return to Fabric the app already asks for the passcode.

It wasn't that way from the beginning. It happened on its own over time.

Maybe I set something by accident but I have no idea what.

I think I already read the whole Internet looking for a solution but unfortunately I did not find one ;)

In the case of Isudar restoring factory settings did not help.

Please help me because I am out of ideas.

Thank you in advance.

--- Edit ---

To all who have had/have the same problem.

The reason for the confusion was a flash drive with music on it.

After disconnecting it, the settings application stopped launching itself. Perhaps it will be similar with Youtube. I have not checked that yet.
[FYT Android Head Units] PieterD82:
Most (if not all) FYT try to open the last used media app. In my case when i last had Spotify, Youtube, DAB-Z or PowerAmp playing, it will open the last one again. I've read something about that here and did a little "app exploring" using APK Editor Studio and found a file listing media apps. So if the system has one of these apps running and it is listed as a media app to the device, it will try to open it up again when you start your car the next time.

It is trying to mimic your OEM radio that remembered if you had radio playing, CD, AUX or whatever and return to that same state.

Do you mean the "player_app.txt" inside the "assets/property" folder inside the com.syu.ms apk?
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
This can also be disabled by setting a property

ro.build.go_lasttop=false

I found that on a site by @gordgelin.

I have the extended ms apk for the uis7862 already created, but not tested (as I still didn't receive my uis7862). It contains a whole lot more media players than the standard one for those who want to mimic the standard autoradio behaviour. But I also want to share it with the "do not play last media player" patch which I actually "stole" from @gordgelin. (But I also saw many of my findings, mods, apks on 4pda, so I do not feel guilty). I only want to give credit to whom deserves the credit.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Kootee83:
I've tested already many S7 (herolte) ROMs and couldn't find any that would have both working properly: camera and fingerprint.

For camera: all of the AOSP based ROMs stop working after about 20 minutes of video chat (sometimes even earlier). Then you have to reboot telephone to make camera working again. I have tried PixelExperience, LineageOS 17-19 and others I don't really remember names now. You can try it yourself by starting WhatsApp or Messenger video chat and waiting bout 20 minutes.

Quite irritating is the fact, that they never mention this issue in ROM summary page, you can only test it yourself or sometimes find reports from ROM users comments, that there's this issue, and it seems quite old and known issue.

For fingerprint: all the stock kernel based ROMs support for fingerprint functionality is partial. Some applications will work with it, but some will crash or just refuse to work like Keepass2Android. Sad thing to say is, that great ROMs like for example FloydQ and Lightheart have no issue with camera but they do with fingerprint.

For this one at least I've found some explanation by @ananjaser1211 why it's not compatible with the stock kernel:

"The 3rd party fingerprint bug is not related to safetynet. It's an incompatibility between the oreo auth tz server we use and the pie+ fingerprint hidl. We can't use the lineage fingerprint hidl. I've tried but it's not compatible with oneui. And we need such custom hidls in order to have working fp"

It seems that it's impossible at the moment to have both fixed. I believe it's a kernel-related thing.

Or maybe someone has found a ROM or a way to make both working correctly?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ananjaser1211:
I think fingerprint was resolved in recent lineage builds, as they found a way to make a compatible hidl that resolves the mismatch we faced, however i had no luck implementing it in my ROM, AOSP components dont really love oneui much.

regarding the camera not working, this is due to a patch made in the camera HAL to bypass FDSAN issues, it does bypass the issue, but after a while of usage it will have issues with FD's and stop working (either not loading entirely or showing a green screen)

we faced this issue in FloydQ v4 or V5 i do not recall when i implemented that patch, however due to it being unstable i resorted to a different method of disabling FDSAN in the ROM itself, rather than fixing it in the camera driver, which is a hack, not really something lineage peeps are interested in.

in lineage this is done in source by setting FDSAN error level to "ANDROID_FDSAN_ERROR_LEVEL_DISABLED"

in OneUI Q it is done by setting "debug.fdsan=0" in prop, which samsung left exposed, however it is not the case for lineage and it needs to be done in the source
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Kootee83:
I've tested most of the available Android 9+ custom ROMs for S7 (herolte) just to be sure no one made one that would have fixed both camera and fingerprint. Here is my result:

ROMs with camera issue (camera stops working after 20 minutes of uninterrupted usage like in video chat):

PixelExperience 11 and 12 by @expressluke

Lineage 16,18,19 by @Ivan_Meler

DotOS by @expressluke

crDroid by @expressluke

Evolution X by @expressluke

aicp by @expressluke

ROMs with fingerprint issue (fingerprint in some apps like Keepass2Android and some banking apps won't work):

FloydQ by @ananjaser1211

Havoc-OS by @expressluke

ResurrectionRemix by @expressluke

LightRom by @yash92duster

Lightheart by @Skulldron

MKUltraBlack by @MKUltraBlack

NfeSuperleggera by @arcatarc

So to have both working correctly there is only one option: Stock / Android 8- ROMs.

Thank you @ananjaser1211 for the explanation. So the temporary fix for Lineage (and I guess other AOSP ones too) seems quite easy. I'll give it a try as it seems easier than fixing the fingerprint issue.

For me personally faulty video/camera makes ROM unusable in these days when video chats are so common. I can live without fingerprint in some apps, it is definitely less irritating than very unreliable camera. But it is of course a personal preference in the end.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ananjaser1211:
Regarding the error, this is a bit generic, the actual hal crash would be in data/tombstones probably, you have disabled fdsan, but did you revert the libexynoscamera "fdsan" patches, i.e the hacks that causes the green issue in the first place. since you disabled fdsan in the rom, you dont need these patches, you should check them in the vendor tree of the rom you are compiling, (generally speaking, using unmodified Note 7 fe libexynoscamera should be fine), after that, test the camera further and keep an eye on HAL crashes (not app crashes) , in theory there should be none. since as far as i know fdsan is the only fatal error on our hal

on the topic of using stock camera on AOSP, no it is not doable, samsung camera (and apps in general) have deep SEM/SEP hooks everywhere , in frameworks / helpers / libs, without having oneui source i dont see how someone can do it without losing half their hair.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Makowal:
Thank you so much @ananjaser1211 for the information. In this situation I'm seriously considering trying my best with your FloydQ compliation for herolte to help fixing fingerprint issue. Personally the cameras used in AOSP are not only faulty but also slow, and herolte is already old so I'm afraid there will be only less effort in future to do anything special for this device.

About the fingerprint I know you have already done some research in the matter. In FloydQ do you think that fixing existing fingerprint software would be easier or rather porting the one from AOSP? Do you have any hints for me where to start?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ananjaser1211:
I did not dive into the fingerprint issue on floyd significantly (from testing fixes perspective) so there might be ways to fix it outside the hidl, but to summarize,

we use hero mcDriverDaemon / libmcregistry / libmcclient and vendor/app/mcRegistry,

these are only designed to work properly with OREO libbauth/libauth server (the blobs responsible for fingerprint), however, we dont use oreo bauth, we use the ones from pie (gracerlte) because the oreo ones does not load properly with pie and higher fingerprint HAL, in our case it is `vendor.samsung.hardware.biometrics.fingerprint@3.0-service`

To test some fixes, i would first start by replacing the hidl used in floyd with latest compiled one from AOSP (making sure it is being compiled with android Q dependencies) and debug why it does not exec, because it "should" work, as this is more or less a generic hidl

once the hal executes, i put back oreo libbauth/libauth servers and try my luck.

i am working on V7 of that rom, so i might give the FP another shot, maybe i missed something when i tackled it last time.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Makowal:
@ananjaser1211 I've tried again with an official PixelExperience ROM and this time I did exactly as you said. I'm happy to say that it worked! I've tested it for over an hour. I finally have a ROM with both working Camera and Fingerprint 😊

I suspect that the reason lays in this commit from git log:

commit 77e12d12a0c9659aed776332c0f1511c54d2b906
Date: Thu Aug 6 09:32:35 2020 +0200

universal8890: pin hexedited libexynoscamera3

* some fd close in loop causes android Q fdsan go mad
* binary patching them as nop fixes the issue

Change-Id: I56f409fde5902b5340291bb5d454a619cdd7d0a0

What I think happens here is after the binary was hexedited it doesn't close fds, so after some time there are too many open and the app crashes (even if fdsan is disabled).

Of course it is some workaround because fdsan is disabled now but well, good enough for me :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ananjaser1211:
Fantastic to hear! and yes indeed the patch used to prevent fdsan from breaking camera also allows for FDs to say open i believe and after a while the camera breaks, Glad the workaround is working for you
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Kootee83:
Recently I started using this newly updated ROM of @Exodusnick . It is a Lineage 16.0 (Android 9) and has both camera and fingerprint working without issues so it meets my criteria (as in this topic title). Unfortunately higher Android versions of the same microG compilation do have camera crash issue after 20m usage, but Pie is ok and works for me.

Personally I'd definitely prefer some Android 9 with OneUI. I don't care about newest Android versions, just the ROM to be daily-usable (stable). Android 9 is required by one of my must-have applications this is the only reason why I put it as a minimum version. Unfortunately I don't think any Android 9 OneUI ROM for S7 exists with working fingerprint. @ananjaser1211 did your compilations of Android 9 had this fingerprint issue?

I've tried a ton of different cases, but always go back to the Samsung Aramid because I just can't stand the bulk of most other cases. Now that I've got my Fold3 skinned, I'd like to be able to see it, and I'd rather not go naked. I've tried a couple of clear cases so far and, while they look pretty good, they're just too bulky for me to use on a daily basis.

Have any of you found a clear case with a thickness similar to that of the Aramid (or at least approaching that size)?

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] rdk138:
I'm using the araree nukin 360p clear case with my D Brand teardown skin and loving it. Adds very little bulk to the phone. It comes with two differnet hinge protection options, one for the spen and one smaller thinner one for hinge protection without the spen. You could also use the case with the hinge protection removed for an even less bulkier option. I've dropped it a few times also and its survived just fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pieces of cake:
I appreciate the input. I happen to have the black version of that same case, but I actually find it to be too bulky as a daily for my tastes. I only use it when I'm going to the beach or know that I'll be in other areas where the chances of it being dropped or exposed to debris are higher than usual.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
It's going to be tough to beat the aramid for slim form factor. This phone, IMO, has the highest sensitivity to added bulk. In other words, cases; even the ones phrased "thinnest", still feel on the bulky side. The truly bulky cases make you feel like you're carrying a compact hardcover book around! :)

Peel makes some really thin cases which are about as thin and protective as skinning. Being a rather avante-garde product, case production runs are somewhat limited especially when compared to a more popular phone. (eg. iPhone XR)
