I had: - Face unlock enabled for lockscreen - Fingerprint enabled only for apps (NOT for lockscreen unlock) Now whenever I try to: - enable fingerprint for lockscreen - change biometric settings - use Google Password Manager/autofill in some cases the phone asks for biometric verification AFTER already accepting my PIN/password. Problem is: the fingerprint is not authorized for lockscreen/device unlock, so it fails for system-level authentication even though fingerprint still works inside apps/app lock. So I’m stuck in a circular state where Android wants fingerprint auth to change fingerprint settings. Things that still work: - PIN/password - face unlock - fingerprint inside apps Things that don’t: - changing biometric settings - enabling fingerprint for lockscreen - some credential manager/auth flows Things already tried: - multiple reboots - unlocking with PIN only after reboot - biometric lockout attempts - recovery mode - clearing Google Play Services data - clearing Credential Manager cache - checking Autofill/Password Manager settings No change.
