First my fingerprint scanner works perfectly 10 out of 10 times it recognizes my finger,
but sometimes the lock screen take me straight to pattern lock and the message "device administrator locked device" appears on the screen.
why it is happening and what is the meaning of that?
Do you use an exchange account on it? if so, it is possible that adminstrator policies from that are nor considering the Fingerprint a viable security for the phone. Or it may force the pattern after a certain amount of time

No.. I don't use an exchange account, thanks.
Are you using the FingerPrint Quick Action app? What are your current Device Administrators, knowing what devices are permitted to lock your screen as an Administrator will help you identify the culprit.

screen off and lock is the culprit, any device administrator that locks your screen will require a pin to unlock regardless of fingerprints or smartlock configuration.

The app in question needs to turn the screen off via root. The fingerprint quick action app does just this.
why do you need an app to turn off screen? is your power button dead?

I just want to replace the home button long press from google now (or now on tap) to turn the screen off..
I did it with the "Screen off and lock" app but it caused the pattern lock "issue".
Nova Launcher will allow you to do a double tap to lock the screen. It will either lock it without use of fingerprint or it will set up a black screen and time out to use your device security or it has a root abilities to lock your device and use device security.

Strange
This is intended behavior on android 7+. Tested on Galaxy S5 with 7.1 Linage, Huawai Mediapad M3 and Galaxy S8+
However there is an app for samsung edge ( not sure if all edgy phones, tested on s8+ ) that can lock the screen without using device administrator. The app in question is Softkey Edge for Edge Panel, installed from galaxy app store. It allows the phone to be unlocked from fingerprint, without pin or pattern as nova prime screen lock gesture for example. And without root.
So there is a way to lock screens without device administrator, we just need to find it.
It's strange. I did not have this problem ever. I had to reload my phone because Oreo update blew up some programs I use a lot. So I downgraded, and now I have this problem.
I don't see anything in my Device Administrators that would cause this. And I haven't added any new programs for quite a while.
i have the same problem .after i unistalled screen off and lock application ,after working fine.

I presume that is a third party app. I don't have that to uninstall.
I found that the app "Files", a Huawei system app, giving this problem when marked as a device administrator. Disabling it's device administrator privileges solved the problem for me. Who would have thought Huawei's own app gave this problem.
I now lock my screen using Greenify's Sleep & Hibernate action, set up to be activated with a double-tap under Nova Launcher's gestures settings. No problem waking up and using fingerprint. Of course, Greenify must not be a device administrator as well. There are other ways to shut down the screen if not using Greenify.

whenever i want to unlock my phone with my fingerprint, i HAVE to enter my pattern. Is this normal? can i make it so i can fully unlock my phone just using my fingerprint?
nope.. not normal. You should be able to awaken the phone screen and unlock it all with just your fingerprint.
This the opposite of normal........

Yes, the first time after a reboot if you use fingerprint to unlock it will still say "PIN required after reboot" or something to that effect. Otherwise it should wake and go right to your home screen every time.
Found the problem. Nova launcher. The launcher worked great with my s6 but not with my 6p. Ive noticed a lot of bugs like the notification shade scrolling down really slowly and this problem where it asks for a passcode /pin/pattern after unlocking with a fingerprint. See how it shows the lock icon instead of the fingerprint icon
oh well. i guess nova isnt too compatible with marshmallow. thanks for your help guys
Ive been having this problem on my 6p as well. It just randomly asks for my pin instead of my fingerprint. Going to try using something other than nova launcher for a bit and see if that helps.
-Edit, tried using google launcher for awhile, fingerprint works all the time now. That means that its a problem with Nova Launcher for now.

There are a few paid apps that will give you back the double tap to lock. I am using gravity screen...it fixes the double tap to close, although there is a 5 second delay before you can try your finger after you double tap..I will try to find the link, but there is a thread about this issue already.

no its not the nova launcher. I got my 6p yesterday and I'm using google now launcher. every now and then it asks for pattern lock when I attempt to use the fingerprint scanner. don't what's wrong.
So my S7 Edge is constantly telling me for additional security purposes to input my pattern instead of my fingerprint, which is what I've set it to, to unlock the device. And it happens very frequently. Almost to an absurd amount.
Is anyone else experiencing this with their S7 Edge? It's very annoying because I only want to use my fingerprint to unlock my device. I understand during a reboot that it might ask for it the first time, fine, but after that, it should be done. But it keeps asking me for it randomly and frequently.
Does anyone know what is going on there? Why it happens so often?
It only happens to me after a reboot.

I have the same problem and I can confirm that when I use Action Launcher's turn off display shortcut it causes the "additional security" prompt to come up, otherwise no prompt. I will try using the above referenced app instead.
I'm using NOVA and am getting this incessantly (though I cannot see any pattern, it can appear after I manually lock, or when the screen times out). I'm not using any shortcuts to turn off the screen (like double tap)
Am on APC7 firmware, upgrades haven't made a difference. One of the most glaring annoyances in an otherwise wonderful phone
Is anyone NOT having this issue while using NOVA or a non-stock launcher? Would be happy to switch launchers (or even factory reset)
update: have tried using the google launcher, disabling NOVA but to no avail

Since I upgraded from PC8 to PD1, I also experienced this problem but the app you mentioned still not solved it. The device still requires a pattern instead of fingerprint unlock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help/security-policy-prevents-fingerprint-t3354270
I've got it solved.
If you're using Nova Launcher disable the Lock Screen option from device admin to > None
The solution which works for me is a simulation of power button. Try this [root required]: http://llamalab.com/automate/community/flows/2002
I tried nova launcher with tap to sleep app, but every time reopen the phone it will require me to enter the password again.
I think this is a new marshmallow feature. If a third party app locks phone, it requires password. What happens if you manually lock or let time out.

Screen Lock Pro by Prahallad has a setting to bypass security. There is a free app by the same Dev but I haven't tried it.
Once installed you can link Nova's double tap setting to it.

It just turn the screen black until it lock itself. Takes about 3-4s. I know the developer wrote there 10s but it only takes 3-4s on s7e. You know it when the AOD comes on etc etc...
As of now, from what I can tell there is no way to use an app or double tap to lock the screen without requiring a pin for a non rooted phone. Apps that turn off the screen but don't lock the phone isn't really an answer.

It is an answer though. You just have to tweak the settings in the security section so the phone locks immediately. There is still a 2 sec delay but to get to lock the screen with a double tap again and get to unlock with touch ID it's fine. It costs a little over $3 though.... which isn't much but is on the steep side for such a single purpose app. There is a marshmallows touch ID workaround setting in it as explained which merely turns the display blank (although for me the edge thing is still visible) then after a really short delay the screen actually turns off and AOD turns on. With the system settings set right it actually locks securely the moment AOD turns on. Max 2 sec delay. No one's gonna get a chance to get in your phone that quick.:good:
So, I did come across this same issue, and it seemed to have started for me when I applied the May Security Update. It happened on my Note 5 and my S7 Edge. But when I applied the July security patch to my Note 5, double tap to lock WITHOUT a pin next login actually worked again, not so on my S7 Edge, after applying. Havent had enough time to research and dig, but doesn't make sense working on 1 and not the other when both are 6.01, both on July security patch, both Verizon models, and both use Nova Prime. Has had me stumped since May....
Sorry. Original post placed in forum for wong device.
Before today's update, I was running Nova with double tap set to the app screen off and lock. This allowed me to double tap the home screen to shut the screen off and lock the phone (I prefer this to clicking the power button). After the update, I can still do this, but it will no longer work with fingerprint unlock. If I try unlocking the screen using fingerprint, it forces the pattern unlock. Does anyone know a way to fix this?
Thanks.

I'm not familiar with that, but it was definitely working for me before the update. It's not really a Nova feature; Nova just supplies the double tap gesture function which can be used for anything. I think it has something to do with lock screen security, but nothing I tried worked. Thanks anyways.

It's a Marshmellow thing, not a Nova thing. It doesn't work on 6p, or 5x, or any other variant of the s7. Or with any other apps that lock the screen. Seems like it may have been a fluke if it worked on yours. It has to do with the apis for smart lock and Google's fingerprint api.

I use a different tap to lock screen and it now makes me use the pattern all the time. If I use the power switch and wait the 30 seconds the fingerprint works. Try that and see if it works not using Nova.
It is third party lock/screen off apps that cause the enter pattern always function.

Thanks for the reply, but it works now. You just have to use a different app that turns the screen off but does not lock it. With the new app, the phone will lock itself after a few seconds and then I can use fingerprint properly when I turn it back on.
Installed the update from last night, after the phone rebooted the recent and back capacitive buttons are not working. I just did the repair software tool with verizon and that didn't fix it. Crazy...
I know guys, there are a ton. But so far I found only two kinds:
- Some completely block your phone, not allowing you to unlock with face or fingerprint.
- Some -idk why- turn off the screen and randomly turn it on inmediatly after. This doesn't happen evertime, but it's a problem cos if you have smartlock activated then the screen is on and phone in unlocked...
I just want a way to imitate the power button single tap function. I don't like pressing physical buttons, I use a gesture to turn the screen off before putting it inside my pocket. And yesterday I pocket-dialed two people...
Nova has a double tap to sleep function, and greenify used to have a short-cut to the same thing.

So i initially tried using Nova double tap gesture. It would turn the screen off but a second later it would go to the lock screen. Now i use Good Lock by Samsung and i actually like it a lot. In Good Lock go to the the "Family" tab - (no idea why it's called this) and then select One Hand Operation +.... I created a Small Right handle that turns the screen off when i slide it. Works great and i have yet to activate it by accident.

I also am desperate for this feature. Tried all of the apps and all of them go to the lock screen for some reason. I contacted a couple of developers but idk if they can do anything. Tried the one hand gestures and it does work but the thing is I still prefer double tap to lock instead of those swipe gestures. I think this feature should be natively supported like on almost every other android phone.

I use Nova for that: ||>>>Gestures & Inputs>Home button>Screen lock(uncheck "only on main home...")
then go to 'Gestures' below, click "Swipe up" and also check "Screen lock" Now, I use 'Full screen gestures" for nav bar already, so that Nova gesture setup is not messing up the nav bar gestures but rather compliments it. Example: I have some app open on the screen and swiping it up(w/o Nova) in the center would bring me to the Home screen(and that is being mimic w/Nova too) then the second 'swipe up' locks the screen. Simple, quick double 'swipe up' from any app does the trick, if you are on the home screen already then you just swipe it up only once.
I also use full screen gestures. The problem is not the gesture. The problem is that I need an app to turn off the screen. There are like a hundred apps that do that. But they all have one of the two problems I said before.
I'll look for the good lock in a bit. I have to find the apk.
"there was a network or server error. Try again later. The mapper function returned a null value"
I'm getting this error when I open good lock. Apparently it's not supposed to be use in Argentina. I'll try Nova launcher now.
