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 wish Google would implement what Apple does, when you click the lock button five times to dial emergency services it will also disable biometrics. I don’t think doing that disabled biometrics, only calls emergency services on Android. Even better, install “Duress” from F-Droid and you can set a decoy pin that resets the phone (or just reboots it)
