The error message popped up was like ‘Fingerprint hardware not available’. Google has now acknowledged that the issue is noted by the company and are requesting further feedback from the users to gather sufficient data.

A new thread within the support forum is opened by Google to collect data from users who are experiencing the same issue post update. Normal debugging procedure like restarting mobile, deleting existing and adding new fingerprints are not working as per users.
