Hi everyone, english is not my first language, so i'll try my best.
I have a very annoying bug on the last miui.eu weekly related to the gcam, the problem is that if i take a picture with the native camera, everything works fine, but if i took a pic with the gcam (because i prefer that quality) then i open my galery, google photos, facebook, wsp, etc. It seems like i have no photos taken with the gcam, if i want to see that pitcures i have to go, manually to DCIM/Camera. Anyone have any idea of what is the solution?
I already tried a few gcams and xml, so that's not the problem here.

Hi,
i have a huge problem with my camera. When my Mi5s arrived before one year the cam worked perfectly and the pictures were really nice. But somewhen the quality of the images went really low, so i tried different camera apps and settings, tried multiple different roms (Miui Dev, Global, etc.) but nothing helped.
The images looking like if the resolution is really low and are unsharp, especially in low light situation. The weired thing is that in the preview of the camera app the images are much sharper and more brilliant as after the photo is taken.
I am for now on the pixel experience rom (clean flash with everything wiped) and tried the stock cam, the ported google cam and the ported miui cam, but the images are all the same.
I have now clue who it can be that the images are that bad after processing in every app
Does anybody have an idea why this happens and how to solve this? i didnt find anywhere similar problems with this phone/cam.
Thanks

Maybe you can try magisk module from tadi's libhack (this module is for oreo) And make sure your gcam setting set correctly.
Didnt help, but thank you!
It looks more like a too long shutter time if you ask me. Did you used the Mi5s specific port of GCam? Search here for "v2e", which will give you the latest one that worked great with my device: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
For settings I use:
Model Pixel 2 XL (some users have better results with Nexus 6P)
Config HDR Pixel 2017 ZSL
HDR+ Very high
Final JPG Qual 100% (although 95% should also be enough)
And enabled increased detail of HDR+ on front camera
The author suggests these settings himself:

Hi everybody!
I have latest LOS 15.1 firmware, and tried with default LOS camera, BSG mod camera, ARNOVA mod camera and finally default google camera.
ARNOVA and BSG sometimes produced gray pictures or videos (they almost used no storage, so I guess they were defective somehow), anyway:
I can shoot single pictures, that's ok, but even enabling burst mode, I can't shoot a burst of pictures just keeping the shoot button pressed.
Is it only me? any of you have this problem? how to solve it?
It was working nice on LOS14, but I can't make it work in LOS15 (and when I used miui it worked fine too?)
Please, help me, I have a nervous son that is never still enough to shoot a nice picture, and the only way is to shoot bursts and hope for the best ;D (most times he's a blurry thing in a perfectly still photo
Edited: deleted google camera, instales los 15.1 stock camera Android arnova mod pixel v6.
If I use the front camera, I can shoot bursts no problem, if I use back camera, no way
Hi,
I have bought this device 2 days ago and it is very good, but I have a problem when it comes to the camera, let me explain.
When i take a picture with the camera app, the "preview" of that photo in the screen looks very bad, but after taking the photo it processes it and takes a good photo.
The problem is that when I try to take an instagram stories video, the video slows very much and the fps drop in the video. Also when i'm taking a photo with an instagram filter, it looks like the "preview" of a photo in the stock camera app, and it really looks with so bad quality, like it is a 3 megapixel camera, that also happens to me in snapchat, the quality is very poor taking a photo, and it seems like it doesn't process the image.
I don't know it that will be fixed enabling camera2 api (but i want to keep my warranty) or it is a major bug with instagram and snapchat. (I have also thought it might be a bug witrh the 18:9 ratio, but idk). Help me.
Currently using Miui stock rom in version 9.5.19.0

The camera on Snapchat is super zoomed in compared to normal. I searched on Google, and it seems to be because Snapchat uses video (instead of photo) camera and takes a screenshot of the viewfinder.
Is there a fix for this that we can implement? I don't mind rooting/Magisk/Xposed. I checked the working Magisk modules thread here, but found nothing related to Snapchat.
Thank you!
The problem is, that Snapchat is using the fullscreen viewfinder (I think its 19.5 : 9) and in the camera app it 4:3.... thats the problem and sadly there are currrently (ever since) no fixes
I tried Open Camera, and... Don't record...
I tried some GCam APKs and dont record too...
The stock camera app is a sh*t, the photos seem taken with shi**y phones (but... It can record)
So... What is the best camera app (that works well)? Or some GCam APK that works fine?

Well, the devs can't do anything about it (give that a read: https://www.xda-developers.com/came...opers-make-hardware-work-without-source-code/) The best is Gcam 5.1 - it is the only thing that seems to work almost perfectly. All later Gcams can't record video. Other camera apps (like Open Camera) should record videos, but sadly since the April builds it's broken. The fix is already in the code for the next build but as of now there is no next build. Wait for it. Other issues you will have with non-Gcam or stock cam:
- 2 photos without reopening camera (or going to gallery) is broken
- On low light photos will be s**t. Not because quality - but... well, it looks funny; and green. And horrible.
My recommendation for photos: Gcam 7.2 (when you aren't on Lineage or crDroid, with disabled HDR+)
My recommendation for videos: Nothing, they are broken in the current builds. When it's fixed anything except Gcam.

None, the only real solution is LineageOS 14.1, the cam works perfectly in it.
