Hi, Gaopalelwe9

 

Please run a service test on your Fingerprint sensor. 

 

  1. From the phone dialler, enter *#0*#. 
  2. Select Sensor 
  3. Scroll down 
  4. Under Fingerprint test, Select Normal scan. 

 

If the issue persists, please perform a soft reset of your device. 

 

Press and hold the power and volume down buttons for about 10 seconds. 

 

*The device may take a screenshot, however keep holding the buttons for a few more seconds. This is a soft reset and will not factory reset your phone.
