"FINGERPRINT_ERROR_CANCELED" error in custom view android

i am trying to implement finger print to unlock or remove the locked view by finger print authentication using existing enrolled finger prints by sensor to show contents further but fingerprint authentication working fine in normal activity but not working in custom view, i also tried to implement it in my custom screen lock app but its conflicting or may be due to resource unavailability facing this error "FINGERPRINT_ERROR_CANCELED" with error code 5

i am not sure if its due to resource unavailability because in same time built in secure password/pattern lock is also using same finger print sensor along with my own screen lock or custom view

This code is working fine code in activity

 fingerprintHandler = new FingerprintHandler();
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {

            keyguardManager =
                    (KeyguardManager) getSystemService(KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
            mFingerprintManager =
                    (FingerprintManager) getSystemService(FINGERPRINT_SERVICE);

//
//            generateKey();
//            if (cipherInit()) {
//                cryptoObject =
//                        new FingerprintManager.CryptoObject(cipher);
            fingerprintHandler.setOnAuthenticationListener(new FingerprintManager.AuthenticationCallback() {

                            "Authentication error\n" + "Error code" + errorCode + "\nError String" + errString,

and This is my Fingerprint Handle class to listen

            if (isFingerScannerAvailableAndSet()) {
                try {
                    mCancellationSignal = new CancellationSignal();
                    mFingerprintManager.authenticate(null, mCancellationSignal, 0 /* flags */, mAuthenticationCallback, new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()));
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        }

        public void startListening(FingerprintManager.CryptoObject cryptoObject) {
            if (isFingerScannerAvailableAndSet()) {

            }
        }

See this issue. This seems to be happening on most devices and would need to be handled as a special case. What seems to be working for me is stopping the fingerprint listener on this error and then restarting it again.

@Override
    public void onAuthenticationError(int errMsgId, CharSequence errString)            {
     if (errMsgId == FingerprintManager.FINGERPRINT_ERROR_CANCELED){
         stopListening();
         restartListeningToFingerprint();
     }
}

In the restartListening() method, I just call startListening with a new Cipher instance. This seems to be working on all the devices I have. But I do see some random fatal exceptions some Samsung devices which might be a side effect of this. I'm curious to see how others are handling this error.

no its not working in custom view, i am inflating view to show locked view over apps to create applock and also implementing it for screenlock, i tested code without stop and restarting due to that error in normal activity its working fine but i am facing problem in custom view that's why i asked question hereBoisleduc
I'm using a custom view too.Ocrea
but unfortunately its not working in my case even its not detecting finger on sensor by default vibration while my view is in frontBoisleduc
@MuhammadNatiq Did you find a solution on how to use fingerprint manager with a window?Cormac
