Incoming call screen faint - Google Pixel 4a 5G Questions & Answers

Phone worked flawlessly at first but now the incoming call screen is sometimes so faint that I can barely see any of the info (phone number) on the screen. I cannot reproduce the issue at will. It is an intermittent issue. I use the stock, Google phone dialer and I have not taken any updates for it.
When this happens, the screen itself is plenty bright but it looks like a webpage with a modal that fades out the text.
Normal:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Faded:
Has anyone else experienced this issue? I was hoping the April Android update would fix this but it made no difference.
Another thing that started happening around the same time is that sometimes I cannot turn on WiFi. I have to reboot.

Even if I turn on the option and set screen timeout to 15 sec in an extremely well lit room it doesn't seem to be working. I believe I might have a faulty model. The front facing camera and active display work fine so I'm not sure why this feature seems to be faulty. So far everything else on the phone has been amazing without issues (battery life, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, screen brightness and everything else that people are complaining about).

Messenger changed before the update?

So a day or so before I had a notification of app updates I noticed something with messenger I hadn't noticed since I've been using the phone. Normally if I get a text message and I pull down my notification I just see the most recent message. However all the sudden I saw the last few, mine included, with 'you' in blue.
Once I update messenger I haven't seen it again. I went looking online thinking I wouldn't be able to describe it properly in google to find it but I did. This is a screen shot talking about a much older messenger update for Android N.

I also have the same problem
I also have the same problem
I also have that effect. One way to make it less visible is using Screen Balance (the app is in the Play Store).
My config: I have it set in Tint (it is in Color Mode that is in the options). Then, on the main page, it is in Fluorescent and in Strenght 5%. I recommend removing battery optimization and blocking it in multitasking, to avoid closing (sometimes it happens anyway).

Incoming call not "full screen" possible?

I just want to know...how do I stop this, on my other phones I will get a small popup with the number and the option to answer or decline, on my new P30 Pro I get this lousy full screen, reading an email -BAM-, reading a website -BAM-, watching a video -BAM-, it's fkn annoying, thanks for any kind assistance.

That's strange, mine is working like it should, small pop-up on the top. On what emui version are you?
LE: That's strange, I swear to God I saw a pop-up only when I received a call a few days ago. Now it's no longer the case., full screen incoming call.
Anyway, a quick workaround is just to press the home button / use home gesture to minimize it in your status bar. Strange tho.

Question MIUI UPDATE BUG

I got the update last month, but since then i am facing a bug, please tell me if someone else is facing this too and what is the possible solution.
My audio mutes most of the time when i plays a video. This happens mostly with insta, Facebook reels or YouTube shorts. Whenever i swipe to next video, the audio muted. Then i have to pause the video and play it again to restore the audio.
It's not a big issue ( i hope ) but it is quite annoying.

also the screen flickers when 90hz is enabled. I'm thinking of switching to Xiaomi.eu rom.
