Tip: Scotch tape. I was immensely frustrated with the fingerprint sensor on my FP3, which would only register in perfect conditions, so I had to type my password half the time. Somewhere online I read the tip to put a piece of scotch tape over it, which sounded utterly ridiculous, but at the same time so straightforward and harmless that I tried. I have no idea why it works, but I'm only typing my password whenever the "extra security" counter kicks in now.
