Android 7.1.2 broke the fingerprint sensor for many Google Pixel and Nexus owners

Android 7.1.2 finally finished its rollout to Google's collection of Android smartphones this past week, but according to many users on Google's support forums, it broke a crucial function for many - the fingerprint sensor...

On Google's Nexus help forum (via Android Police), a thread gained traction over the past week or so from a user whose sensor stopped working following the upgrade to 7.1.2.

He stated that safe mode nor a factory reset fixed his problem, and in the time since many Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P owners have chimed in with similar complaints. It's unclear exactly what caused the problem, but odds are we'll see a fix in the next couple of weeks or so.
