WhatsApp video call laggy on almost all pie custom rom - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Hi,
I tried almost all pie custom rom and faced this issue. in OOS oreo & H2OS pie doesn't have this issue.
Is there only me who faced video call on whatsapp very laggy in custom rom?

Any fix yet? I tried several roms but the same...

Found the issue, as people want gcam and overall it is better than stock oos, gcam requires camera2api (HAL3) to use some of the features, i couldnt disable camera2api with persist build.prop command. So this means any custom pie rom that is forcing hal3 will have issue with whatsapp. Idk if whatsapp will add support or fix the issue for hal3. I use whatsapp video calls everyday due to friends(can force them to use discord or something similar) and relatives. So this means that im going back to stock oos ob24 from ResurrectionRemix v7 sadly...
Also found some articles on other forums such as xiaomi, people saying thats hal3 gives them kind of same problems.
So if anyone reads this, till whatsapp fixes the issue for hal3, video calls will stutter. Best solution is using a non camera2api rom or oos.

Multi Snap not working on Pixel Experience ROM on Z2 plus

Guys the multi snap recording feature of Snapchat isn't working on PE rom, it used to work on stock.
Its the feature where you could record six 10 sec videos continuously. Now after recording just one 10 sec long video it stops.
Any idea why and how to enable this feature?
this feature is not working in any of the custom rom except Miui , h2os ,zui. As far as i know there is no problem with the rooting the rom because in miui i was rooted and this feature was working.
I guess there is only limited access we get from snapchat, because when we install the application in the custom rom these applications came to know that we have a custom rom in our device like in whatsapp it gives us warning that custom rom is installed in our device(as shown in the screenshot) but this warning appears in AOSP roms no warning is there in miui,h2os,zui and because of this snapchat gives us limited access to its application. If any of the dev may know how can we hide that we are on custom rom then it can help.

⚠️ I need help ⚠️ (Camera issue)

I'm on MIUI 10 (10.3.4 miui.eu) stable oreo
rooted with magisk 19.1 stable
kangarooX Kernel 3.4 stable oc
Now everything works just fine, but I'm facing weird problem with cam on all messenger apps like (Telegram - Skype ...), when I'm trying to take a photo or make a video call the cam preview (what i see on my side) is flipped cam view! Even when i hold my phone in vertical way and auto rotation is off!. I tried everything (trun on/off cam2api - used multi cam fix module - clear cache from recovery - clear cam app data - reflash rom - edit some cam-related values on whyred.xml ....)
Can anyone help me to fix this problem please ?
As you haven't mentioned, I ask: Does this also happen with the stock kernel of Miui? You tested with custom roms (AOSP)?

nope, i figure it out.. it has nothing to do with kernel or rom, it was caused by magisk module called "skia enabler", so i just disabled it
thanks for caring

Overall best custom rom!!

So, I was tired with RealmeUI and decided to do some experiments with my phone. For the last few days I have been flashing numerous custom ROMs. I'm gonna share my experience with these ROMs. Hope it helps someone decide which one to flash. Earlier this post had some other ROMs mentioned too but I removed them as they were updated recently and I haven't tested them. So, can't provide my review without flashing them.
1. PIXEL EXPERIENCE PLUS & PIXEL EXPERIENCE
This is by far the best custom rom available for this phone. It's been one week and I'm still using it. The UI is buttery smooth. Gaming performance is awesome and battery life is good. The only downside of this ROM is that it doesn't have extra features like the other ROMs. This is purely STOCK. And damn I miss the OOS recorder from Derpfest. I know there's a Magisk module to get the oneplus apps and I did flash it. But the screen recorder was just not there. I tried installing ported apk. But the apk wasn't installed. So I used a app from the playstore- "SCREEN RECORDER". From my point of view this is the best rom for non gamers! I would recommend Evolution X for the gamers out there. I did install only two modules on this ROM - AML and Dolby Atmos!
2. EvolutionX
This is my daily driver now . The smoothness and performance is as good as PE+. But this rom has some extra features which is very essential (to me). If you game a lot and do screen recording, this is the one for you. There's a dedicated gaming mode which turns on automatically when you open games and oos screen recorder. It's a very feature rich rom. The latest version of EvolutionX needs RealmeUI firmware. So flash it first if you're on COS.
3. Havoc OS
Used this ROM for almost two days now and I can tell this is a good ROM. I didn't do gaming though. By the looks of it, I think it will handle gaming just fine. The XDA thread of Havoc is outdated. Join the Telegram Group to get the latest version(which is 3.8). And it needs RealmeUi firmware so flash it if you're on COS.
any bugs in Pixel Exp Plus or should I stick to Realme Ui
I can confirm. Been testing all the three and while I loved them Pe and pe+ are far the best in basic functions like speed, ui, battery, performance. Yet it is true it's very stock android like and missing some extra features but I don't mind for I'm a purist and you can always add extra content, apps, features by downloading and on a rooted device there is no such thing as completely impossible ?
Is there any properly working call recorder in pe+?

Actually, there is one impossible thing- " you can't install the OOS screen recorder (I couldn't). Tried the ported version and the magisk module Oxy-ify. The app just doesn't install.

You have to sacrifice some things. The private safe of realmeui isn't there. You have to use Gcam. Stock camera features(48MP) won't work. Slo mo does work but is kinda useless. The secondary lenses work but the macro is pretty useless I guess.

Well, there will always be stuff that won't install on different ROMs. I tried so hard to get 48 mp on custom ROMs but found out that it's kind of faux yet a good 12 mp gcam shot can be just as sharp and detailed as an oversaturated stock 48 mp shot on stock ROM. So I gave up on it and I don't mind. There are some stuff you can't install but if you're creative enough you can get around them. I'm sure there are good enough screen recorders out there ?

I never cared for the 48MP mode. Even in stock rom I used it only twice. Normal 12MP images turns out better than the 48MP images.
I know there are screen recorder apps available out there. But none of them were as good as the OOS screen recorder so I shifted from PE+ to EvolutionX.!
Best rom, lineageos. But it seems nobody is developing it anymore... But still using it and it's great
Let me use this thread to ask this: is there any custom rom being actively developed, that does not have gapps included? Thanks.

1. DERPFEST
The initial impression of this ROM was great. Performance and battery life was way better than the stock ROM. And the games ran very smoothly(including cod mobile and pubg mobile). And it had great features too e.g. - OOS Screen Recorder. You can't find the app anywhere on the app drawer. It sits quietly in the quick settings. If you don't see it just add from the tiles. But after two days to usage ROM started behaving weird. Occasional lags and stutters in the UI. And some apps were crashing. And sometimes the will go to a bootloop. To get out of the bootloop you have to go into TWRP and flash caches. It is not a solution though as the bootloops would occur again. So I decided to dump this ROM. I didn't know what the reason was. I posted a comment on the post of derpfest but I got no reply. Well, I had installed too many magisk modules, which were useful actually. Viper,ICE sound, Dolby Atmos, Audio Modification Library. Can this be the reason?? Is there something called "Module Overload" exist?
2. POSP
Here I only didn't face the bootloop problem but faced others mentioned above. So I got rid of it before it begins the stucking in bootlogo problem.

Evolution X has also a bug, the ported screen recorder doesnt support internal audio recording but great recorder because of 60 fps reolution. Only the default recorder works.
Anyone tried havocOS?
Hi, I was considering installing Pixel Experience plus on my phone. Do I need to have coloros or any specific version of realme ui to install it? I'm currently on Realmeui v11_c.05. I haven't rooted/flashed a recovery yet and plan to do it tomorrow. Should I download coloros before trying to flash this rom?
P.s Thank you for your detailed post, I was quite confused between PE/PE+, evox and derpfest.

Dude, I have been using the ported screen recorder for all of my PUBG recordings and it does support internal audio! Try messing with the settings

You don't have to be on COS for PE+ or EvolutionX. RUI will do the job

I don't know what's wrong with this post but I can't seem to get the edit option. So I'm writing this in the comments-
"The latest version of EvolutionX doesn't need COS. It needs Realme UI firmware. So, if you're already on RUI don't need to downgrade"

Question Camera issues with Lineage OS 18.1

I currently have LOS 18.1 on oneplus 9 pro, the august 17th release and I don't have google services.
I'm wondering wheter there is a way of using the camera array properly as it would have been on oxygen OS. I mean, currently I can only use the main 48mpx camera and that's it. what I cannot do:
- using ultrawide camera lens
- recording more than 30 fps videos
I already tried Opencamera and Hedgecam2, none of them allows me to do that. gcam is out of the equation since I have no google services, but I strongly believe these issues are not caused by the camera apps but by LOS.
what can I do to improve LOS and fixing these issues?
Just go back to OOS my friend. That's what I had to do.
I personally love AOSP based roms but I don't think their integrated camera/gcam is stable enough, for now at least.
I myself tried Evolution X for about 2 weeks. The battery gets a major improvement if compared to OOS, but that's about it.
It can be used easily as a daily driver but the lack of OnePlus camera and many other features which were available in OOS led me back to it.
I'm currently running latest OOS with magisk updated.
I'll probably return to cRdroid/EvoX after their camera issues get resolved.
I just want to keep this for a while, if the problem do not goes away I'll have to install OOS and perform a GMS removal.
Why not gcam with microg? I've used microg just for gcam and disable network access to it and there you go, gcam with privacy.

there is no way you can install gcam in LOS without GMS.
then you are locked without camera features

He is suggesting you install microg; a cleaner fork of GMS, I am using it currently on my 7TPro and Gcam is working just fine with microg.
Is there not a way to pull the OOS camera and install it on LineageOS?

Camera modules do not work on custom firmware.

Hello everyone, I installed lineage with 12android. Looking for a official GCam that will work on this system.
I read information on the internet. The processor is suitable, the firmware is new, Google services are installed. Custom GCams work, but I cant understand why the wide-angle module and 48mp do not work in these programs.
I think this is a common problem and I hope there is a solution already.
+ a problem with the volume of video recording (very quiet), in some messengers the recording of a video message lags.
(before that, pixelexpirience was installed, which worked slightly crookedly. Google camera did not work there either.)
