Lineage OS Camera not recording video, audio and first frame only - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

Hey everyone,
I have had multiple updates for Lineage on my Mix and still the issue remains. As mentioned in the title, the camera does not record video. It takes pictures just fine and when attempting to record video it looks to be recording, but when played back it's just the first frame and audio. I have tried multiple camera applications and none of them have helped.
It almost feels like an issue not with lineage itself, but the kernel on my device perhaps? I should mention this too, when i'm recording video through facebook messenger it works just fine, but only then. I can watch videos people sent to me just fine as well, so i don't believe playback is the issue.
Is anyone else having this issue with lineageOS on their Mix?
If anyone knows a way to fix this please tell me, its been bothering me forever. Thanks!

I'm sorry to sound dumb, but where would I be able to see my current firmware? Im guessing in about phone, but I'm not seeing it.
Thanks for your help, and I will try to flash that if I can.

Just flash it anyway no harm if using upto date ROM, it's worth a try.

I'm having trouble getting what you told me to find. I have an up to date rom, the latest lineage os release, and I'm confused as to what you mean by firmware? Is that included in the rom? Thanks, sorry to sound dumb, just never ran into this issue before.

Tempting Android N AOSP

Very tempted to update to Android N (Team FXP AOSP)
But I value my camera quality (Using DRM fix kernel, works great)
Knowing that the Xperia is never going to get android N, due to google removing the Z3's kernel from their source, would it be worth updating to AOSP, basically removing all the features that are so good?
You answered your own question, stick to stock if you want a camera that works 100% well. AOSP camera has never been good for any phone and the camera on Nougat barely works anyway.
Next best thing is Concept ROM, which still has a decent camera
I'm tempted to try Nougat AOSP. I don't mind losing the camera on Z3c that much since I prefer my camera on my G4. But I don't know how to install it. Is there a guide? That's up? Last time I checked Sony's site the guide was down.
Two qustions, how bad does the camera become, is it still usable for simple random snaps to send to friends on IMs?
What is DRM fix kernel?
TIA
Lol nougat barely works. I've been running it for days now. My opinion is nougat is excellent on z3c. I can upload a flash able zip with full Google apps if people are interested

That does sound good. Get 6-8h SOT with SLiMM ROM. Do you know how much you get on this one?
Also could you do me a favour and check which Android Security Patch it got? It would be awesome if PA is up to date with that.
TIA

Security patch is September. Its built off the main branch of AOSP google sources. So security will always be uptodate

Please could provide a link to the Rom Nougat 7.0

Hey thanks. Quick question, you said you have been running nougat on your device and everything (but the camera) seems to be working. I just installed it last night (and my gapps are working as well now) and I already noticed a couple of bugs. First and most important, i can't hear the person on the other end of the line. It appears that my earpiece is not working. The person on the other end can hear me, but I can't hear that person. Second and minor issue, once i plug in my z3c to charge, the battery icon top right shows the charging sign as it should. However when i unplug, that charging sign doesn't go away. So far i have noticed these bugs, can you confirm if you are not facing these bugs (so I know its my device that is messed up).
Thanks,

Hi!
I'm using the latest AOSP for our devices, and facing thiese bugs too. ( 20160912 ). Sometimes I've got calling bug when I can't hear the other person on the line, but he can hear me. Just a restart solves it, but I've got thiese problem nearly evry tenth call time... And one more thing, while i'm on calling and my phone set to minimum volumes, everyone else could to hear my phones speak... or I can say it, what you're talking about. Like when i set the speak to a loudspeaker, as though it were the whole conversation. The speakers are very loud on minimum volume, and not too much louder on maximum settings. ( but, i think they are a known bug ).
Second, the cahrging icon. Yes I experienced it too, when you disconnect the charger from the phone, the icon remain the same, like when the charger plugged in.. And I think, something gping on the background, because my battery goes down nearly 30 percent by a night ( 8h ).
About the rom speed. I think, it runs very smooth / fine until more than five software parallel, ROM while fast. If more than five program run in the background, ROM start to tear, slow down. If you delete them from the memory, the system will be fast again.
I tried to take a logcat with "aLogcat" from playstore, but it's not working. I remember it from my previously phone age, i must convert it to system app... But now, I can't do this, because i did it with Titanium Backup, and now they not support andoid N..
Anyway, I think its will be a very good AOSP rom... ( without camera :/ )

Call quality issues?

Having a small issue with call quality, had it on every version of OOS yet. People I call or who call me complain that either a) my voice quality is not great, or b) they can hear an echo of themselves for the first 30-60 seconds or so, then it goes away. This is on AT&T in the US. Anyone else seeing anything like this, or is it likely a hardware problem I should contact OP about?
It seems to be pretty common. There is a file called Echofix.zip that fixes it but I don't know if it works on OOS. I only used it on RR rom.

did you try to flash the zip file on stock ROM? is it working?
Honestly don't remember. I ended up sending it back to OP, they sent it back saying they couldn't reproduce the issue. A month later I sent it back again, because it was really unusable for me. No one could hear me on most calls. Voip worked fine. They still couldn't reproduce it, but refunded the cost of the phone to me. Bought a Samsung s8+ a few months later.

[Discussion] Micro lags in OOS 4.0.2

Hi All,
To everyone who is on nougat oos now with stock and stock based kernels, do you experience micro lags while playing music and videos? Like just a small pause, maybe else than a second. I use power amp and YouTube. This also happens when playing video on quick pic, or typing. And its becoming annoying now since I can notice it everytime I play a song or video. Could anyone else confirm?
Yes. I use blackplayer ex and my songs skip sometimes when im listening to music on my bose soundlink 2 via Bluetooth.
I'm on 4.0.2 as well.

Zero issues here. Running 4.0.2
This happens to me only when I am using Saavn app with screen off. The song just stutters once and then everything is normal. I had no issues with YouTube though or even when typing. Did you do a clean flash of OOS?

Yes, it was a clean flash. But I can't blame the apps because they are popular and no one else reported this. Maybe only I'm facing the issue?

Thanks for responding. I need to make a clean flash again and then test. But it's highly unlikely that a clean flash "again" will solve this.

It happened on stock kernel first. I flashed a custom kernel but this also persists with the custom kernel. Seems like something in rom or stock kernel sources.

Not necessarily true. I always wipe everything on my internal storage and never experience all the problems everyone else claims to have. The roms I have experienced is fast and smooth. Remember, when a ROM is developed, it is not created on a device with old data from previous roms and third party apps. If you want the ROM to do what it is supposed to do, one should try to emulate their environment since there is absolutely zero way for them to emulate yours.

Try doing an absolutely clean install, wipe everything on internal storage and restore old data one app at a time until you locate your offending app or data. The ROM is quite stable and smooth. I have been involved with IT for over 30 years and whenever a new server was built or upgraded, a backup was done, followed by a clean install in order to eliminate as many issues as possible. I am currently on a stock ROM, 4.0.2, rooted with substratum with a memory hog like Facebook and it's messenger app, as well as others, and I still scored 157,630 on my OP3.

Wiping internal storage is not an option for me, i don't simply have the time to do that honestly. But i'l definitely do a clean flash this weekend. The apps are the same that i'm using from MM days as i rarely use a new app, but the issue is definitely new. I will report back after performing a clean flash.

Then it isn't truly a clean install. Do a complete Nandroid backup. Why can't you do a backup? Do you have a Google account? All your apps and pictures are saved to their cloud and if you do a manual backup, all your data, is saved and can be restored as well.

I understand your point man but i don't have the patience and time to copy almost 40GB of data from phone to computer and then back from computer to phone. That's how my lifestyle is. This is the reason i don't play with custom ROMs or kernels that much.

Some of my friends who upgraded to Android 7 Nougat have been experiencing Lags, app crashes, etc including op3 and other phones like nexus etc. this issue is with Nougat itself oos 4x is build on Nougat so, obviously oos 4 will have these issues.

No sound on video recording on Oxygen OS

Hi guys. As I said in the title, sometimes, i think 50% of the time, I have no sound when I record a video. This happens with stock camera app and with google camera app also.
I haven't been able to find what is the trigger regarding this, sometimes it works after restart, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it works just after I restart the app. I have also tried to change the video resolution, the problem appears in any resolution.
I think this is an old problem, which appeared in an early version of OOS, but, since I have not used the phone for video recording for a long time, I did not knew that this problem exists.
I have tried to modify the "fluence" in build prop (noise reduction), hoping that it will work, after I have read a few threads regarding the problem with inconsistent sound on video recording. However, I did not find anyone who complained about no sound on video.
I am on open beta 15 rooted with magisk.
Any ideas?
I would try another Rom in your case.

This is really a question that should be posted in the lineage development thread. It's rom specific, or so it seems, you don't say if it was that way on stock or not. It doesn't coincide with my experience on stock, does it you? I'm guessing rom specific.
