Is there a canonized Saint who was - at any point in life (obviously he wouldn’t have died this way) - a heretical bishop? As in, heretical *as *a bishop, who later converted?

One of the anti-popes is canonized (legend has both the Pope and the anti-pope were arrested, and abdicated, the anti-pope reconciled with the Church through the pope while in the mines.) Saint Hippolytus.
I would be surprised if their aren’t more, reconciled at one of the early Councils.
