I got a Samsung GalaxyS 5 phone. It has a security feature whereby I can scan my fingerprint and it will not let anyone use the phone if it does not identify the fingerprint as the owner's. I inserted my fingerprint. Problem is that whenever I scan in my fingerprint it says it can't identify it as mine Sad Lucky I also have a password, but I would like to use the fingerprint if possible. Any suggestions?

For a start, the Galaxy s5 is most certainly NOT an iPhone.

It should also help to be sure your hands are not too dry. That's what I was told by TSA to be sure our fingerprints registered on the GOES entry system in the airport.

You meant smartphone, I guess. Don't insult an android lover by calling his gadget an iphone... Puke

I didn't bother with that feature on mine because I had read reviews that it can be very annoying to get it to "get"it. I guess the technology is not all it's cracked up to be.
