Redmi Camera port for AOSP-based ROMs - Xiaomi Redmi 7 Questions & Answers

Does anyone know if there exists a port of the Redmi Camera for AOSP-based ROMs, or how difficult would be to create one? Cause I want to be able to take portraits.
I have tried installing Redmi Camera trough APKmirror but it didn't install, I have tried a lot of cameras but none of them worked; Google Camera had a lot o problems, like it didn't let me turn off HDR so photos took a long time to save, portraits would crash the app if I tried to open them before they finished processing, etc.
I really like AOSPExtended but the camera is a big no-no for me.

I saw miui camera ports from other phones. I don’t know about stability, but I can share it in mega.nz

Try using ANX camera.

There's no MIUI Camera port, but you can use ANX Camera, which is made like MIUI Camera

Is there stock MIUI camera port for AOSP(or LOS)?

I really want to use LOS or AOSP based rom,
but stock camera app for LOS doesn't seems good enough compare to MIUI stock camera app.
(of course I can use Google camera app, but there's problem with front camera HDR+...)
So, My question is, is there any camera port for Whyred?
(I tried Mi A1 ver, but HDR doens't work)

Did you find any on XDA Note 5 pro topic? No? Then there is no ported stock cam for customs.

Gcam Miui vs AOSP

Hi, my Redmi Note 5 is arriving and I want to know if I install Ressurrection Remix OS the Gcam app will have the same image quality as if I install it on Miui?
In my opinion it's even better, since you can adjust a lot in the modified versions of the gcam (look out of Arnova and saneklic.)
You can bump up the image quality by quite a bit (also in low light conditions, images can get better). Additionally you have some nice mods (like photosphere, different modis of panorama) which the others don't have. In my opinion the mi camera performs as good or worse than the gcam.
The portrait effect with the blured background can be achieved perfectly by 1 lens again, so no need to use the mi camera for that effect (since lineage snap & gcam use 1 lense only). So there is no need to use miui camera for that one.
Don't forget to activate camera2api (persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1) in the build.prop and you are good2go I hope it helped!
Edit: if you want to use the miui camera anyway, there is a thread where you can flash the .zip file and have it anyway!
I think he means that he would like to know if the gcam performs the same on Miui as on aosp Rom. In the end, is the gcam so good on Miui as the same gcam app on aosp?
Personally I think yes, because they both used camera2api, but I didn't test it.

Stock MIUI Camera Port For Custom Roms

Can anyone port the stock MIUI camera with dual camera support and potrait mode for the front camera. All the other apps I tried on my Redmi note 5 Pro running AOSP Extended are either unusable or really bad. So if anyone can port the stock camera app from MIUI it would be really great.
Peace
What about this? https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...miui-stock-camera-portrait-mode-dual-t3816069
we have to wait
Tried also this port from A1 but gives me streched Pictures.
I am on Pixel Experience too, until now the preinstalled LineageOSCam works fine, but you will have best results with Google Camera Port from Arnova (try pixel2mod ver. 8.1). I am also looking forward to an upload from redmi note 5 pro stock camera, because i want to do a comparison between the camera apps. You can expect a working stock app at least when the A2 will be released.

yes it,s similar but with working portrait mode front and back.
Thank you sooo much!
One thing: Portrait mode with back camera not working - but I use omni gsi - perhaps that´s the reason!
Edit:
Ok now I installed the "Mi A2 Camera" from magisk downloads and my portrait problem is solved!
Do you guys notice a diference in the portrait mode when using the A2 lite (stock) camera vs the A2 camera? The harware is quite different, and I believe A2 lite secondary camera is used as a depth meter, so more blur in the background when using portrait mode. Am I right?
So far everything works except for the group selfie. Thx

Mi A2 camera app (magisk module - to download directly via magisk downlaod manager) is better than stock! Portrait mode works better and also for front camera!
I updated the magisk A2 camera module to the latest version and it comes with a couple extra features, but more bugs. Portrait isn't working, and manual controls aren't there anymore.
Do any of you guys still have the previous version and can share the file here? Thx!

Installed today and it works perfectly! I tried to install magisk Mi A2 camera module version 4.0 firstly, but camera crashed and it duplicated the main camera... so, I couldn't use it.
This one, replaces the stock camera and the results, in my opinion are better. Better portrait mode and better pictures in low light conditions and better front camera pictures. I think that this app really makes a difference. The manual mode is awesome too.
I have installed Gcam too and now I can use both too.
Thank you very much!

try this:
"In order to fix the front camera, open the gcam settings and enable camera.enable_hwhdr from "Developer Settings"."
source: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-how-to-enable-camera2-api-t3851414
for me:
i'm using "GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V6.apk" from https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
to get front camera working: go to settings - extended - disable front hdr = yes (i'm not sure about the correct spelling of this option as i'm using another language)
