How To Unlock A Fingerprint Enabled Smartphone Using A Cellotape

Rewind back to 2013 – 2014, a fingerprint enabled smartphone was really a huge luxury to acquire. yea i’m talking of the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the Apple iPhone 5s which were one of the first phones to have a fingerpront unlock.
But we all know that fingerprint scanners have always been vulnerable to hackers who are willing to go the extra mile to bypass them. Over the years, we’ve seen everything from people using Gummy Bears, Play-Doh and more.

Today we will show you how to unlock a fingerprint phone with nothing but a mere Cellotape.

Here are the things needed for this trick.
Cellotape

Your Fingerprint enabled smartphone

The first step is to roll out a small piece of tape from the roll of sellotape, and paste it on the finger which is already registered on your smartphone (Like In The Picture below)

Then you use a second finger to press the cellotape tight on your finger.
Remove it gently and paste it on the fingerprint reader on your smartphone.

Viola! device is unlocked!
