Google Pixel 6 Pro: Fingerprint scanner not working after replacing screen. Pixel 6 Pro

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 19:27:23 -0700

Fingerprint scanner not working after replacing. Android in-app tells me to go to g.co/pixel/fingerprintunlock which doesn't exist.

Google has a a fingerpint repair tool at https://pixelrepair.withgoogle.com/udfps but it says my firmware is too new for the tool.

Now I have no fingerprint scanner and I used it on all secure apps.

Google Pixel 6 Pro: Has anybody found a replacement rear glass panel?

Mon, 15 May 2023 14:12:27 -0700

My phone got crushed, damaging both the screen and the rear panel. I'm getting the screen repaired currently, but the repair place has been unable to source replacement rear glass panels. Has anybody else been able to find them? I'm based in the UK

Google Pixel 6 Pro: replaced screen, bottom microphone no longer works

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 07:50:57 -0700

I replaced my screen with the ifixit kit. I was pleased that everything seemed to work, then discovered that the bottom microphone doesn't work.

That means no phone unless I use speakerphone, no google assistant, no voice recorder, etc.

I have done nothing other than replace the screen. I was wondering if there could be a problem with the screen connector, that could cause this?

I've tried all the other things on the internet, factory reset, blowing air into the microphone port, making sure microphone isn't disabled in apps, installing third party apps, lots of unlikely desperation stuff.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Google Pixel 6 Pro: Is it possible to use the Pixel 7 Pro display on the Pixel 6 Pro?

Wed, 26 Jun 2024 05:23:45 -0700

I recently broke the screen on my Pixel 6 Pro, however the replacement is out of stock.

The Pixel 7 Pro Display seems to have the exact same dimensions as the Pixel 6 Pro display and the specs only seem to differ for the maximum brightness.

The question is therefore if it is possible to just use the newer and slightly better version of what seems to be mostly the same display as a replacement for the broken one or if i am mistaken about the dimensions, a different connector is used or the difference in power usage makes the swap impossible.

The fingerprint sensor should also be taken into account. Again it seems to be the same one but i could be mistaken about that as well.

Google Pixel 6 Pro: I forgot to turn off my phone before starting my screen repair.

Tue, 25 Jun 2024 03:44:44 -0700

So my phone is still on after screen replacement us done. I followed all steps correctly, but missed that it needs to be off before starting (which btw why was that at the bottom of the page instead of at the top???). Should I wait for it to die and charge it back up to do calibration?

Google Pixel 6 Pro: My Google Pixel has no reaction after changing the screen.

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 08:09:35 -0700

Hey guys,

I bought a broken Google Pixel 6 Pro and tried to repair it changing the screen. I bought an original one from iFixit. When I try to turn the phone on or boot into fastboot nothing happens.

The only thing that works is, when i charge the phone I see, that the phone is fully charged, as in the picture down below.

So it seems like the display is working, but the phone might habe another problem.

I tried a force reboot and that stuff, bit nothing worked for me.

Has anyone of you an idea what the problem might be? Everything except the screen looked good inside the phone. It looks like the rest has never been touched by a third person.

Thank you very much!

So my phone fell out of my pocket off a cliff, bounced off a ledge, and hit some more rocks on its way to the ground. I recovered the phone and its really busted. the screen has some pixels lighting up when I plug it in but its not recognized as a device connected to my PC. Do I have any options to get data off the hard drive?

Google Pixel 6 Pro: Screen won't turn on after replacement

Thu, 18 Jan 2024 12:40:34 -0700

Hi iFixit,

I just recently bought a replacement screen since I was having issues with a flickering and dead screen with my previous one. I followed the directions from Youtube videos, powering it off, removing ribbons and fingerprint sensor etc and now for some reason my screen won't turn on. I've tried reseating the cable in several times and made sure the fingerprint sensor is correctly plugged in but nothing.

I've turned it off and on, did the soft reset for 30 seconds and nothing. I know the phone is able to turn on since it vibrates when it powers on and when I get notifications. However I can't tell if the screen just isn't correctly connected or if the pins got messed up in the seating process or a common complaint if I've received the wrong screen and got a Google Pixel 7pro screen instead. I've tried plugging in my previous screen but since the old screen wasn't properly working anyways (was black most of the time or flickering) I'm not able to verify if it works. Please any suggestions would help. Thank you.

Google Pixel 6 Pro: My touchscreen has stopped working - I can't even turn it off

Sun, 05 Nov 2023 01:20:21 -0700

A couple of hours ago my phone stopped responding to touch. To even turn it off I need to put in a PIN which I can't do as it needs the touch screen to be working. I hadn't dropped, overheated or damaged the phone in any way between the time it worked and stopped working. As far as I know, all updates have been done. Does anyone have any suggestions that don't involve using touchscreen?

Google Pixel 6 Pro: Pixel 6 pro fingerprint sensor timeout after screen replacement

I have just finished replacing the screen on my Pixel 6 Pro. Everything went smoothly following the instructions. After powering on, however, i cannot use the fingerprint sensor.

It tells me to visit g.co/pixel/fingerprintunlock which i do and after the intro it immediately shows me "Fingerprint setup timed out. Can't use fingerprint sensor. Visit a repair provider or g.co/pixel/fingerprintunlock. I've done a restart as well as removed the existing fingerprints in my phone. No luck.
