To get back to stock conditions after flashing the kernel.zip follow the instructions in the FAQ.
You can try to fastboot boot an older boot.img (from april or march stock firmware, after you restored stock images as described in the FAQ), let the phone try to boot once and crash, flash correct boot.img and afterwards try again. Sometimes that resolves issues for people.
This is not a kernel issue, but some other stuff is wonky on the Pixel 6, so I can´t really help.
I think by now it´s advisable to keep verity/verification disabled when updating the phone each month as that seems to be the root cause of all the problems. No matter if it´s magisk related or something with verity is up on pixel 6 devices on stock firmware too.
What a bummer
Sorry to hear that. I suppose you tried the fingerprint calibration tool google provides already?
As far as I´m aware fingerprint sensor and display need to be paired correctly. Sometimes this is a very finicky process. I know this from other phones as well, where even official repair centers are not able to do this process without jumping through loops and holes and need to order proper equipment. This is really a pain on modern devices.
On the other hand most people probably enjoy if their devices are factory calibrated and this calibration happens unique to every display for example. Problem is, if you switch the screen in most cases you end up with the "wrong" calibration. Maybe it´s something similar here.
I don´t see any log attached to your post. It seems the upload went wrong.
I tried to reproduce at my end constantly yesterday and today too. Also in retrospect to
this post from you I can´t reproduce it. I´m at 1 1/2 day of uptime and used the device pretty heftily throughout. Scrolling in launcher is smooth while taking a screenrecord.
I´ll take a look at your log once you´ve uploaded it and you also get a DM from me
as
@roirraW "edor" ehT said this is not really a welcome subject in any development threads here.
Best advice is to try both kernels and compare for yourself.
34°C as battery temp reported in EXKM/FKM is I´d say still acceptable depending on what you´re doing with the device and your ambient temperatures. If you´re slowly starting into summer/spring, this will only get worse as ambient temps rise.
The last few gens of SoCs were pushed to achieve higher and higher peak performance. While they got more efficient as well, the "price" measured in peak power draw those SoCs have to pay to achieve those higher levels of peak performance is a lot higher as well.
None of those SoCs, be it Snapdragon, Exynos or Tensor can sustain their peak performance for even 2 minutes without significantly heating up.
Higher power draw means more heat inside a closed system without active cooling.
To better understand the picture as a whole.
There are loads of temp sensors in the phone. So let´s say you´re actively using the phone while doing a lot of scrolling, loading different apps, doing some multitasking. Depending on ambient temp and the overall temp the phone has (let´s take the battery temp exkm reports as a fixed point, which represents a sensor close to the battery) while starting this experiment the SoC right where the CPU sits will be between 50-90°C while your actively using the phone in the way described above. The heat produced there must go somewhere. It will inevitably heat up the phone as there´s no active cooling. If ambient temp is higher, the phone will heat up quicker, if you´re starting with a warm phone, the phone will heat up quicker than starting with a cool phone. If the overall phone is warmer, the SoC area will also be accordingly "warmer" during the exact same experiment compared to a colder phone.
To give another good indicator of the state of modern smartphone SoCs: While an app is launched and the powerhal requests high/max performance from the phone, the big cores ramp up to 90°C in less than a second.
Another example: Just watching a youtube video indoors on WiFi (let´s say 21°C inside) with not so bright screen will produce a very slight amount of heat as well. But usually the phone can sustain this or even cool down passively while doing so. CPU temps as long as you´re not touching the screen will probably stay below 40°C and it will groove probably in at just about 30°C battery temp reported in EXKM.
Watching a youtube video outside in the sun, display brightness to the fullest, on mobile data with a not so good signal quality and it´s a whole different scenario. CPU temps won´t stay below 40°C as the whole phone is warmer, display draws a lot more power, radio draws more power. All of this heat needs to go somewhere and heats up the phone.
It´s probably best to flash this if banking apps are not working on this kernel, while working on stock kernel yes. I´ll include all of those changes in the next release.
