7 months ago It's very likely that this is a bug for Samsung to fix. The logs report the following immediately after Aegis' AuthActivity is started: BiometricPrompt: onError: 10, 0, meaning: BIOMETRIC_ERROR_USER_CANCELED. So Aegis actually does start the biometric prompt, but then something immediately dismisses it.

7 months ago What should I do if Samsung refuses to fix this? Is there a way to slightly delay the biometric prompt? I'm wondering if it's some sort of race condition going on

7 months ago You could give https://alexbakker.me/u/pzymgolur8.apk a shot if you'd like. It's based on the following patch that delays the biometric prompt by 2 seconds: https://github.com/alexbakker/Aegis/commit/ff528551ef9f39b49edd82e04333b9d220715359
You could also experiment with removing the following 2 lines: https://github.com/alexbakker/Aegis/blob/ff528551ef9f39b49edd82e04333b9d220715359/app/src/main/java/com/beemdevelopment/aegis/ui/AuthActivity.java#L265-L266

5 months ago Samsung must have updated something, because the biometric prompt works as it did before
Version
2.2.2
Source
Google Play
Vault encryption
Yes (with biometric unlock)
Device
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5
Android version
14
ROM
No response
Steps to reproduce
Set up biometric unlock for your vault. Make sure that the app is not currently open. Make sure that the app is added to the list of apps displayed on the Good Lock Launcher Widget (Good Lock -> Life Up -> MultiStar -> I :heart: Galaxy Foldable -> Launcher Widget).
Launch the app on the Z Flip 5's cover screen using the Launcher Widget.
What do you expect to happen?
I expected the app to automatically show a biometric prompt upon me launching the app.
What happens instead?
Observe that a biometric prompt is not started by default, and that you have to select the "Use biometrics" button to get one to show up.
