So I dropped my S22 ultra at work flat on the screen. The screen has cracks everywhere but the phone works just fine. But the fingerprint scanner is not working at all. It used to work extremely well but now it just won't read my fingers anymore. 

Does anyone know of a good screen replacement would do the trick or is the fingerprint reader fried?

Odds are its cause the screen is cracked. Remember there is a sensor in th3 screen that reads the fingerprint
