Fingerprintsensor fault

Hello,

I have an Xperia Z5c.

I'm looking for a solution about the  fingerprintsensor.

Since i updated my Z5c the menu from the fingerprintsensor is gone.Befor the sensor worked well.

I can't select in the menu's no option to learn my finger to the phone.

Has somebody the same problem or the solution.

i done already a softwarerepair but stays the same.

The version is Android 6.0 .versie  32.1A.1.185

All help is welcome. Thanks in advance

I don'tg see the options for adding my Finger to THE fingerprintsensor. Before THE update i could choose Thijs option in THE menu settings.

Same here, fingerprint manager is just not there. It doesn't appear in the service or anywhere else, simply gone.

Do you have the US version of this phone? 

Did you updated the phone using flashtool or Xperifirm?

Nope, bought in Germany and updated came OTA. No unlocked bootloader and/or rooted. Red tint is from the cf.lumen app.

I have the same problem.  Got mine in South Africa.

The Sony South Africa still advertises the phone on there site with the fingerprint scaner.
