Hey folks. Got a pixel 7 pro, and it’s been alright, except suddenly, if I press the fingerprint sensor on the lock screen for just a split second, it makes the WHOLE SCREEN go full-brightness, with a green tinge. I know it’s always lit up the scanner area, which is all it lights up if I hold the sensor, but if I release it early it’s actually very uncomfortable. Any suggestions besides the obvious “don’t let go 5head”? Is this an android version bug, a hardware issue? Anyone else had this happen?

    I have a Pixel 7 and mine does the same flash bang thing on fingerprint. I just figured it was to “see” the fingerprint better. I only notice it when it’s really dark.

    Hilarious way to describe it. I knew right away what you were talking about.
