Gcam on redmi note 5 global pie - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

hello,
after pie update gcam working on front camera also...
but in stock kernel.
so i use mokee os because it use stock code gcam also work on this rom.
is there anyone who knows kernel developer and talk with them about it...i tried but no one noticed...

1- pm developers for random questions like "problems with gcam" is a very bad idea, they will probably block (Ignore if you have luck) you, they don't really care about that, trust me.
2- The camera works because he extracted/reverse-engineered some parts of the stock pie kernel.
Wait for Miui stable Pie and the new kernel sources, the problems will be solved.

Nice.. i would be curious if anyone can extract the kernel so we can use it on other roms.. currently no kernel works with front gcam hdr ,they just add worthless stuff and placebo effects that no one cares about and somehow performance and battery is still better in stock miui

I know the devs worked hard on it and for some it's a great ROM however for me freedom is dog ****
Never remove the icluded screenprotector. Just dont and avoid reading any news or user experience with screenprotection/ tempered glass. You will regret removing it.
Dont forget to make a backup before changing your rom also backup imei
Till aospa 7.0 is out use aicp nougat rom + latest arm64 7.0 pico gapps from opengapps you can also use ex kernel cm variant for nougat format data/cache to f2fs use viperatmos 5.5 if you use included root change selinux to permissive for viper to work. use nova launcher, neutron music player and buy powerbeats 2 and enjoy.
@Ahmed rahi thanks, i will remember that XD @nadejo so i will keep this screenprotector as u said and thanks for that tip with backup IMEI. About this headphones i will still use my HyperX Cloud but anyway thanks for your advice
I see it hasn't been mentioned yet: no custom ROM achieves the same camera quality as OOS. (there is OOS camera port, but some features don't work well)
That's probably the main reason people (including me) use FreedomOS - it's just debloated OOS, so camera is also the same.
Don't know what's Ahmed rahi's issue with it, but the ROM really isn't any worse or better than stock OOS, just debloated. And I'd say OOS is already a pretty decent ROM ?

Can you send me some photos? Here or on PM and how about battery on this ROM?

OOSify (Flashable Zip)

I created this zip because I hate the hassle of flashing multiple zips and/or manually copy some files to /system every time I flash a custom ROM just to get some OOS stuffs, and I thought I could share the zip here.
This zip supposed to install OxygenOS 3.1.4 apps and files, which is limited to only 4 at the time of this writing, that is: OOS Camera (and libs), Gallery, MM Bootanimation, and Sounds.
(I know, no OOS launcher or Shelf, and I can't get the music app to work either) (yet) (hopefully).
Here's the file: Download
It should work on Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs, but it's tested on CM13, LineageOS 14.1, Nougat SlimROM, and AOSP-based Nougat ROM.
Known issues for the camera app:
Beauty mode (front camera) and panorama doesn't work. If you trigger Beauty mode, you won't be able to open the front camera (it'd keep crashing). Clear app data to fix.
Manual doesn't work on some but should works on ROMs with stock camera blobs.
I can confirm that its working on AOSP based Nougat ROM(Cosmic OS).

Thanks for testing it!
Hi, thanks for that. IMO users wants OOS camera.
Where are the libs from? OOS 3.1.4 ?
Different from what @CheckYourScreen did here?
I've seen that even today Sultan's improved again his CM13 with camera HAL.
I'd be really interessed in digging in it to see what can be used here.
What do you think about that?
Edit : Just saw that...
Thanks!, Getting the oos launcher would be interesting, if possible.

Not really sure of that as even in the official version Shelf was not really rock solid, but the idea is quite interesting....
It would be Google Experience Launcher + shelf.
I've read that Action Launcher have some kind of swipe action with a Widget panel, which is close to what OP launcher gives us...
Music apk file download from internet works well on lineage based roms

Seriously?
Sultan's version is the best option for camera app. It's better than OOS.
Are you on 12th feb version?
@fchrkbr and cool for Nougat Slimroms, I hadn't seen they had pushed beta builds this month. I thought they had give up end 2016...
Will test it !
i miss the slowmotion feature of oos... and i think that oos camera is best in low light conditions... but my version of sultan rom is from august i think, probably now the camera has improved...

NB : If, you update, you have to update bootloader first !!
Low light conditions? For photo you mean? Because for video, it's really the opposite.
thats the bootloader thing that makes me avoid update the rom, im tired of having problems while flashing new roms etc
yes, for photos, i usually dont make videos

hey bro, thanks for the apps. but how to make the camera save taken photos to external sd ? internal memory is too small to handle it huhu
Only camera app (and libs)
Hey, thanks! Is there any way to tweak your zip to have it install only the camera app (and required libs)?

How is the audio clarity and quality when compared to the stock ROM? I have stopped flashing any custom ROMs - be it Oreo or Pie just because of this issue. Also, could you please share the full camera version that you are currently using - is that without the Portrait mode? Also, how much screen-on time are you getting?
Hello there... this post got my interest too. I have jumped back and forth between stock and custom. It is sad "for me" that it seems most devs have given up on supporting / maintaining Oreo 8.1. Everyone is trying to iron out the bugs in a Pie custom... however, I simply want the stability to be there... especially with the camera features and battery life. I am not a gamer either, btw. With all of that said, I have a question or two please.
1. Why did you quote using an older version of Magisk? Is there a compatibility thing that I should be aware of?
2. With the Gcam mod you referenced, does stability work smoothly while recording video? I have found that in many custom builds the stability mode can be jerky and no too smooth.
TIA

any luck with custom kernels ?

did anyone try to flash custom kernels from Redmi Note 7 Pro since they both have the same chipset ? or i will be bricking my phone ?
if no, then does something like GSI exist , but for kernels ?
i just HATE schedulit governer, and no matter how much i change the frequency with Kernel Auditor or Franco Kernel Manager, it always revert to the max speed again and its killing my battery life
if someone knows a way to limit CPU speed using Build.Prop or something that ACTUALLY STICKS i will be super happy
thanks in advance

Liniage I had installed... fp and dual sim are the major bugs.
Fp does not work. Only 1 sim works default.
Then the curved edge it too curved but there are some overlay patches available in the group.

I mean, would you suggest it? Is it stable? thanks.

32mp camera I think is not there in any custom rom. But if dev's can build the gcam for a70 specifically, I think, it may work.

The best rom for note 8?

Can it be the best rom for this phone? Now I have Pixel Experience, but it has too many bugs.
Try corvus 8.0. seems good to me.
i've tried panadroid, bliss, aosp extended, xiaomi eu weekly, colt, ressurection remix, corvus, havoc, crdroid, superior os
the best for me is unoffical bliss by bezke for better battery usage, ressurection remix for performance, aosp extended for ram management
I tried download Bliss, but was imposible. Always the link failed. I will try to download it again.
I will read something about corvus too.
Tried all so far. None were 100% to my liking. Always something wrong:
- no bokeh mode in portrait camera
- bad battery life
- no smooth scrolling (e.g. Chrome)
- bad wifi
- etc
The only ROM I can recommend (I'm using it) is MiuiMix. Based on MIUI(EU) with a few tweaks.
MiuiMiX_2.0_ginkgo_20.3.26_v11-9 Download: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261756420
Also tested their good V12/A10 but I don't like MIUI12.

Does it still contain all the MIUI "phone home" attributes?
I try every zip that has Ginkgo name in it
AospExtended-v7.3-ginkgo = the best
good battery + ram usage = 1.3gb (out of 6gb)
SuperiorOS comes in 2nd place because ram usage is slightly higher (1.4gb)
Xtended-XQ 3rd place , same as superior but has a call log bug
i saw someone rocommand miui, r u serious ? with the built in ads and thon of bloatware ...
u drunk bro ?

Of course not. This is custom ROM based on MiuiEU.
The wifi issues are the worse for me. Pixel it has, and miui.eu (10/12) it has. Not before in miui.eu stable(9/11) but is not a smooth rom.

bugs reported are from v7.1 and 7.2
i'm using 7.3 for 1 months and never face anything wired
(i even installed xposed and all module are working fine, every other rom is not 100% compatible with gravitybox and other xposed modules ...)
the only feature that is missing is gesture anywhere and it would be a perfect rom
miui11 and 12 are straight piece of crap
ram usage is 2gb (out of 6gb) after many optimisation and debloating (not to mention that there are some app that can't be freezed/removed)
(my device is 6/128 and i don't use gapps)

what do you mean "no miui Security centre" ?
you freez or disable that app and your device will not boot
that is a core componant of miui roms

I am well aware of that on stock miui thanks.
This question was about MiuiMix supposedly a custom rom without all the "phoning home" etc according to the poster I quoted ( @tweakradje ) so I was looking for confirmation from him since he is using it.
