Android Enterprise app not detecting any fingerprints

[ruscles]

Hi,

I have an app that is developed to run inside the Android Enterprise container (for corporate devices). The fingerprint authentication from this sample works perfectly when the app is installed outside the enterprise container. However, when the app is running inside the container, it is unable to detect any fingerprints that the user registered outside the container (on the normal device).

It fails at this piece (line 137 of MainActivity):

if (!fingerprintManager.hasEnrolledFingerprints()) {
            // User hasn't enrolled any fingerprints to authenticate with
            Toast.makeText(this, "Go to 'Settings -> Security -> Fingerprint' and register at least one fingerprint", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            return;
        }

Is there a way to detect registered fingerprints outside the Enterprise container from an app that is running inside the container? I have tested this on an S7, S8, and Pixel. Thanks!
