What is the trick behind Huawei P30 Pro fingerprint sensor? - Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers

Does anyone know what is the compatibility trick behind Huawei P30 Pro fingerprint sensor?
I have got issues with mine.After screen replacement it worked fine,until the microphone stopped working at the bottom board.So i went for a new one.And there the fingerprint issue started.I cant enroll a fingerprint.
I went for another board,new sensors,new main flex.It simply does not work,recognizes it,but does not work.Calibration tools and softwares did neither work.Tried to update/reset,also unsuccessfull. Actually it worked perfectly once,read the fingerprint perfectly,but after restart did not work again.
So,i am stuck... I know in the past i have replaced screens and sensors on P30 and P30 Pro without similar issues.
Is there an trick or must i bring it to Huawei centre to pair the hardware?

Hi,
Did you find a solution for this issue yet? I'm about to replace the fingerprint sensor, but cannot find how I can calibrate the fingerprint sensor afterwards. There seems to be some software app by Huawei which can start the calibration proces but it's nowhere to be found.
Anyone?

Hi
I got issues on my fingerprint sensor after replacing my screen, and all i needed to do was reflashing original rom.
It works perfect after.

Great for you, i will try that for sure in the near future, but can you please explain what do you mean by original rom? The one that was first on the phone when was sold? Or you used emui 12?

Did you figure it out?

Well, i was waiting to get answer from joaofbc but no answer, i didn't try anything on my own, i use phone daily and didn't want to mess it, but face recognition is working fine so i don't care about fingerprint that much.

Maybe it's an omnivision sensor... it's not guaranteed that this sensor is sony IMX258
The serial number is from a Sony sensor.
And? is anybody manage to do it?
I still have the IMX258 with me! Anyone wants to buy , PM me.
It did not work for me.
I replaced the sensor:
A0 0-FILM WH273 (Kernel Menu: Version Back Camera: ofilm_s5k3I8)
with this one
OHP0240 A0 0-FILM WG493 (Kernel Menu: Version Back Camera: Not support)
Perhapse also ROM related?
The Phone is on MIUI 9 Global 7.9.15 Beta

Sadly no difference after reflash. Took the fastboot file from here. http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
Any other ideas ?
I wish someone would reply. A $10 sony sensor is a worthwhile upgrade to this phone.
Maybe double check that the connector is seated properly. Maybe you need to install the correct driver manually. Regardless, this needs to get more attention!
Did you try using a custom ROM such as LineageOS?
Yes, installed the following:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...other-development/rom-lineageos-14-0-t3566095
Also installed the firmware.
Does anyone know how the ROM detects the different hardware settings of the phone?
I think xiaomi uses at least three different camera sensor types.
Sounds like a great idea to replace the sensor. I hope some smart XDA members figure out how to load the camera drivers after swapping sensors.
I changed camera sensor.
I succeeded in converting from Samsung to Sony.
@junyajunya
can you post us where you bought the sensor and what is writen on it?
Anything you had to do, so that the sensor could be used?
in aliexpress I bought 32824022365
you can find 32824022365 in aliexpress.
I can not write URL.
because I am new.
and just change.that's all.

On the Sony camera modul mine is missing the QR Code. Guess it is some other brand

Same thing happened to a friend on 7.1.1 with a 950F.
He had to claim warranty on it since we tried multiple firmware's, but nothing brought the sensors back.

Go to Samsung ASAP to get it fixed under warranty
I've claimed the warranty, still waiting for the phone
Will I lose all my stuff on the phone? Or will It be the same?

Chances are you won't get your exact phone back. But a refurbed one. Just use samsung backup app. Works pretty well. And of course factory reset afterwards.
I'm having the same issue with my device past few days (Exynos Chip)
My reply was here.

I haven't experienced it myself, but previous posts in the thread indicate a hardware problem... If you already flashed the latest stock firmware with full wipe and it's still not working, then it seems to confirm that hardware issue.

But i saw some post saying that Samsung fixed there note 8 without opening the device and it also happened to me after software update to oreo maybe it is just software problem and also saw some post about xiaomi devices got this problem by software update. And i use my device with so much care "Please Help me"

Can you find those posts you mentioned and link them here? If it's software related then flashing the latest stock firmware should help. Did you do a full wipe and used csc instead of home_csc in Odin (along with the other firmware files)?

i'm really sorry but can not link them because i saw so many websites and can't remember and yeah i flashed all files with odin but this also don't work any other solution and also saw a video on youtube about xiaomi device sensors stoped after software update
As some buddies stated before, take your device to claim warranty, that's it
I'm getting GPS errors lately, very very weak satellite signals even under 100% sky, I don't know if they are related. Ugh, so much for a $1000 phone
Echoing the responses of others. I would take your device to either the retailer or a Samsung Service Center. As this is probably a motherboard issue.
Facing same issue, all sensors not working. Will be going to care center tomorrow.
I had this problem after I had my phone led screen repaired (under warranty at samsung). Lucky I check everything after every repair.
They took the phone back and got it fixed in 5 minutes. Said the tech forgot to flash in some files.no idea what files but all they did was change the screen and battery.

No its not a hardware problem and samsung knows this only happening to the xynos versions and if all ur sensors were working fine how the fock after u update to their ****ty oreo update that they didnt take the time to do ur sensors stoped work its like when apple sent the update to the iphone 5s now the finger print sensors dont work.

Note 8 sensors not working

Hello there!
Well just like the title says, I have a Note 8, wich is almost like brand new, not even one drop to the ground, not a single scratch, and also no funny apps, just the basics for everyday.
Thing is out of nowhere, several sensors stopped working, no matter what (factory reset, hard reset, wipe cache, safe mode).
Fingerprint scanner: WORKS
Proximity sensor: DOESNT (calls never turn screen off)
Iris scanner: DOESNT
Auto bright: DOESNT
Auto rotate: DOESNT
Heart rate: turns on, but doesnt register your pulse
I've read a lot of people having this issue, some say it was right after a security patch OTA, other it's a faulty batch of motherboards, yet no definitive answer.
Do anyone knows if this can be fixed? It can't be a hardware problem since its like brand new, unless the update somehow fried something inside...
Hope I was clear enough about this, any ideas you have could help!
Thanks!
Did you perform HW test, USSD code *#0*# in phone dialer?
May be useful to report your phone model (Exynos - N950F or Snapdragon-N950U or other)

Yes I did. Everything is stuck at 0.
Oddly, today I tried the heart monitor again, and it registered almost 50%, and then says finger is not where it should be, not reading anymore...

Didnt work fingerprint after screen replace.

Hello.
I replace screen on my P30 pro on official Ukraine Huawei Service, but after this fingerprint in screen didint work.
If I try add new fingerprint phone say error "Registration error".
Official service cant solve this problem.
Please let me know why need for solve problem? Thank you
Sounds to me like Huawei have done exactly the same as apple have done and used and encryption method to lock the specific reader to the board. I havnt had a p30 Pro or p30 apart yet but I belive other phones with in screen finger prints can be swapped
Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk
I have so similar problem. Just disable authentification at all (even PIN, FaceId, others). Then turn on PIN and add new fingerprints. Worked for me.

In huawe centre they have an app to calibrate the fingerprint

Question Mi11 fingerprint error

I have a Mi11 phone that lost power, after fixing it, it failed to show fingerprint, I tried another fingerprint cable but it still didn't work, most likely due to software. Hope someone with the above situation can help me. Thank

the repair was made at a professional if yes it has surely forgotten to put back the nape of the fingerprint sensor or if it is a change of screen it may be that the screen replaced has no fingerprint sensor
