Hello kwnkay,

Thanks for letting us know about the difficulty on your device that needs to fingerprint calibration.

Firstly, you may need to disable fingerprint settings and register again.

To register a new fingerprint, please follow the step-by-step instructions below.

  1. Navigate to Settings, then tap Security and privacy, and then tap Biometrics. Tap Fingerprints.

  2. Enter your lock screen credentials. If you do not have a screen lock set up, you may be prompted to create one at this point. When you're ready, read the information, and then tap Continue.

  3. Use the on-screen prompts to register your fingerprint. When registering your fingerprint, make sure to fully cover the fingerprint sensor with your finger to prevent strong light from entering the fingerprint sensor. When you're finished, tap Done.

  4. Next, make sure that the switch next to Fingerprint unlock is turned on. 

    Note: If the fingerprint sensor on your device is located on the Side key or below the Side key, you can disable the "Fingerprint always on" option to prevent accidental unlocks. 

  5. To unlock your device using your finger, tap the screen or press the Power key or Side key. Then, place the registered finger on the fingerprint scanner, wherever it's located. The device will automatically unlock if it recognizes your fingerprint.

So what happens when you can't even access your fingerprints in the biometrics? This is really inconvenient! Please, if anyone can help me. I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance. My Device = Note 10+.
