Cancel Fingerprint scanner

Viewed 5965

I am working on a program that has a security function including a PIN and a fingerprint, but now I'm having a problem with entering the password (PIN or Fingerprint). Incorporating the correct fingerprints is fine, but when I enter the PIN code, after I exit the PIN and fingerprint activity, the machine continues to listen for fingerprints, I know this because when I click on the "home" button "The machine still vibrates slightly, so there is no way to stop listening to fingerprints?

You can cancel the Finger scan listener by using the CancellationSignal object. Check below code:

private CancellationSignal cancellationSignal;
...
...
public void startFingerAuth(FingerprintManager manager, FingerprintManager.CryptoObject cryptoObject) {
    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT)
            != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        return;
    }
    cancellationSignal = new CancellationSignal();
    manager.authenticate(cryptoObject, cancellationSignal, 0, this, null);
}


public void stopFingerAuth(){
    if(cancellationSignal != null && !cancellationSignal.isCanceled()){
        cancellationSignal.cancel();
    }
}

You have to call this method stopFingerAuth() in your activity or fragment.
