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 am not an expert, but that kinda sounds similar to my old phone when the screen connector broke. It went greenish white and really bright. I dropped mine though.

My fucking mobile does this now when it gets hot! If I play a game or put it on charge the screen will ping up but green-tinted and sometimes with part of it missing. As long as the temp is low it works A-OK.

Though, I threw my phone from the third floor of a hospital after a suicide attempt to stop the brain scanning tech inside from frying my brain and allowing UK armed-response police from tracking me.

The nurses rescued it from a puddle in a tarpauline covering the ground within 30mins.

3 days later I realised the brain scanning was a delusion and I was just "insane in the membrain" after the OD.

I hope you get the help you need. Im glad that the phone was recovered. I threw mine down some hospital stairs too going to grab something from another floor. I also bent one in a car door. It had a 30° bend but worked fine.

Was it just for a split second, almost like if you use the front camera with flash? If so, yeah that's exactly what mine is doing, but when I unlock it. Bizarre.
