Lock the phone with touch (that support fingerprint) - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Just bought xiaomi mi a1 (my previous was moto g5plus)
Really great phone but i'm missing the feature to lock the phone with touch (or fingerprint).
On moto you can lock and unlock with fingerprint.
I tried couple of app from google play, but none of them is working if fingerprint unlocking is enabled.
I mean, it actually works, but after that unlocking with fingerprint don't work.
Is there any app that works?

I don't think this phone supports double tap on statusbar to sleep as it was in cyanogen mod and lineage

Ambient display

Why not work ambient display in this terminal?
Acdisplay apk for example is working.
[LL-MM] Enable Ambient Display - Xposed module don't work.
It's possible make this with Zuk Z1? http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/how-to-add-ambient-display-settings-t2956690

Simply because CM dont have Doze (aka Ambient Display) enabled for our device. As far as i know it breaks double tap on our device.
I had a Galaxy S4 and liked ambient display...
Any solution to active it or not is possible?
Thanks for your answer Joao.
My girlfriend has OnePlus X without doze and has active display and double tap running at once perfectly

We are working on it on CM13, double tap and GPS were fixed yesterday by MrColdBird.
We will try to enable doze and doubletap on cm13, lets see what we can get working.

Any program to lock screen, then use fingerprint sensor to unlock?

I use my tablet a lot through the day so I need to lock/unlock it many times per day so I'm started searching for a program that can unlock my device immediately (without using the power button) and I found plenty that can do that but with all of them, I found out that when I use my fingerprint to unlock, I'm prompted to enter my PIN, which defeats the purpose of having the convenience of a fingerprint scanner!!
Is there any program that can really unlock by 1 tap on it, then unlock my device normally with fingerprint?
Another question: Do you guys have notification badges for Facebook & Pages Manager? I'm running the official Nougat OS (Build 351), US Version (Wifi only). I'm surprised because I've noticed these badge numbers on FB on Huawei phones in Youtube but I don't see these badges at all on my tablet even though the badge notification setting is turned ON!
Depending on the ROM there should be a display lock widget (1x1) available (in german it is called "Display-Sperre", don´t know the other names for this widget on other ROM languages). When I touch the widget it locks the screen and I can unlock via fingerprint without PIN entry.

Which ROM are you talking about? I'm using the default ROM which is nougat. I tried searching for display look widget on the Play store but I couldn't find it .

The Nougat ROM with EMUI5 itselfs has the widget already preinstalled, so no need for an additional installation. I think on older ROMs with EMUI4 this widget is not available. The widget is blue colored with a white lock icon on it.

oreo update bugs and discussion

Guys post the issues that you face in the new oreo update .it will be helpful for laggards
I have some issues;
1. I can't block app for accessing data anymore.
2. I have notification sound for apps that I set vibrate.
I'll update my 2cents while I'm trying my new ROM.
No interactive ambient display anymore. No pick to wake up screen
The camera app opens with a blank (black ) screen. it takes around 5 seconds before the scene shows up on the screen.

You are on beta or what? This bug was there on initial beta builds. Camera is working fine on stable version.

I am on stable 12.29 build, not sure why the camera lag is on my device. BTW, do you know whether CAMERA2 API is enabled by default on this stable build? I am planning to use the ported GCAM but it needs CAMERA2 API.
Do not disturb icon is not visible.Also fingerprint swipe down notification is not available.I am currently on stable build.

The fingerprint gesture works for me fine.
But I hate the notifications about app running in background and about displaying over other apps. So annoying. (See attachment)
By the way, I noticed language English [XA]. What is it?
After the update and first start to oreo my phone didn't show the message that the update was succesfull like in previous nougat updates. Do you have the same behavior? Thanks.

I've enabled the fingerprint gesture in Nougat. Looks like it stayed enabled also in Oreo, but I can't find the toggle in settings.
For me the Oreo looks like beta and it's missing a lot of stuff, Xiaomi just rolled it out because they have promised it. Meh.
Fingerprint unlock is slower than previous android. Also cant find fingerprint gesture settings

Where are Finger prints gestures?
Mobile data freezing issue. The indicator shows 4g but internet doesn't work unless I restart the phone. Happened twice in the last 7hrs of Oreo.
I remember coming across a similar situation on OnePlus 3T nougat beta.

Pie & Nova launcher issue

Hello guys, I've installed the latest beta on my Note 9 running Pie.
When I'm double tapping for screen lock although it locks the device it goes to the lockscreen with the screen on.
On Oreo it locked immediately with a blank screen.
Any solution please?
I'm attaching a video for reference.

Why still on beta when official is out?
Latest stable is released almost a year ago, back in May 2018.
Also, the issue happen with both beta and stable.
Did you update nova launcher to the latest version?
I updated to Pie/OneUI using the XDA method. I'm also running Nova Launcher with no issues.

Conflict found, if I disable the intelligent scan/face or iris unlock, and leave only the fingerprint method then the double tap for screen lock work.

On-screen finger print for app lock ?

Hii to all 9T users...
Can we use on-screen fingerprint reader in app lock settings. To lock and unlock apps does 9T have the option of doing it via on-screen fingerprint, if yes how fast it is as compared to traditional fingerprint readers ?
Fellow 9T users share your views.
Hello,
Yes you can do that with every app installed on the phone even stock MIUI apps (settings, pictures viewer...). You can unlock them with fingerprint/schema and choose to hide notifications too !
The fingerprint unlock is as fast as the phone unlock in standby.
