Users of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra with Snapdragon processor are reporting issues with the proximity sensor after installing GKI ready boot.img files from GitHub releases. This issue manifests during phone calls, where the screen fails to turn off when the phone is brought near the ear. Users also report that images captured while rotating the phone are saved with incorrect orientation.

This issue seems to be specific to the GKI image and might not be encountered when using older custom kernels with KernelSU integrated. As a result, users experiencing these issues are advised to investigate alternative kernel options or wait for a fix from the GKI developers.

Further analysis is needed to determine the root cause of this problem and facilitate a resolution.

**Possible Causes:**

* **Incompatibility with Snapdragon Hardware:** The GKI image might not be fully compatible with the specific proximity sensor drivers on the Snapdragon version of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
* **Driver Conflicts:** There could be conflicts between the GKI drivers and the existing Android driver stack, leading to improper sensor functionality.
* **Configuration Errors:** Incorrect configuration settings within the GKI image might be causing the proximity sensor and image orientation issues.
