Best camera configuration for mi5?

Hello xda, today I decided to go through all the processes of installing TWRP and CM 14.1 on my Mi5, I have been using MIUI8 for a month straight since I received it. I really about the camera on my phone, I am always using it, and as everything in software-hardware stuff optimization is always possible, so I decided to install CM in order to try all those camera ports. So far I installed the Oppo port, and HTC 10 port on the thread that is on the forum, both had some bugs and to be fair didn't look good, same on the stock CM 14.1 camera. I wanted to know if you have any advice on what is the best setup that you can have on your mi5 to get the best out of the camera on the phones, thanks for your advice.

Best camera experience ever i had on my mi5 on miui 8 rom. Rest of them ar very bad this is the only reason I'm using miui otherwise I would go with cm14

Try the camera from CM13. Seems decent enough.

I had a back up of my MIUI 8 and tried to restore it with TWRP, had a brick and now my phone is functional again. I love the auto focus of MIUI8 camera, it has got me some neat shots.

Try footej camera.

LineageOS on OP3T, everything works?

Hi
I'm new here. I recently got a Oneplus 3T (Midnight Black Edition). I am a huge fan of lineageOs. I was wondering if I flash los in Oneplus 3T, will everything work? I mean is there any known bug present?
Thanks for replying.

There was some bugs a year ago, but those have all been ironed out under the past year.
And the camera API problems can only be fixed by OnePlus, if only they would.

Sorry if this is a lame question, but the "camera API" problem as you mentioned means anything related to end user/ day-to-day camera usages? or this is more of a developer's headache? Simply asking if the camera will not work?

Camera will work. I think stock LOS has alright camera. Sultan's camera work makes the quality match OP's camera software but it lacks features such as 1080p60 or 720p120. Not sure if you can get those features if you use 3rd party cameras or not. Paranoid Android uses a custom camera driver that they create that makes the quality really good, but I never used the ROM myself.

Just flash Lineage or AOSP?

Hej,
as the Xiaomi Mi 8 supports project treble.
Can I just download a ROM from here and flash it?
Thank You very much

On the Redmi 4x you need a treble enable TWRP. Dont know if the Redmi is officially suppported by treble.
Maybe we can just flash with TWRP. Have to wait another 300 hours to try :/

The Xiaomi Mi 8 is a treble device, at least it was told that any device which is released with oreo running supports it. Also the treble check app says it supports is. (Only A partition) which seems to be normal with xiaomi devices

So I just flashed this ROM.
Seems, that Lineage does not yet know a notch
I hope that maybe android auto runs without the black borders... then I am gonna switch
Android auto runs on this ROM, but all those other problems... bad photo, screen brightness locked at 50%...

Any other issues?

Could not find a decent Camera app, the one installed is without hdr or portrait ... just basic photography.
Could not find a working Gcam for example

i think gcam had to be modded to work.

Did anyone try flashing a GSI on the Mi 8 SE?
I was told by a couple of people that flashing any GSI image on the SE caused a soft brick, so can anyone please confirm or disprove this?

Would you mind sharing your experience? What about fingerprint, and other hardware parts does everything work? Is it snappy? I'm really surprised it just works! Just amazing eagerly waiting for mine :>

Screen brightness is nailed to 50% and it cannot be changed, also Livedisplay does not work.
Also the just basic camera was a problem.

Pixel camera port with night sight

Hi everyone....I am looking for Google Pixel camera port with HDR+, portrait mode and Night sight.
I downloaded a app a few weeks ago and it just didn't work then I have just downloaded a APK linked to a YouTube video and the night sight worked but portrait mode and normal camera just came out with over exposed photos that came out white.
Any good apks for Note 9 that can help me??

bump!

First: Exynos or Snapdragon?
Second: Why start a new thread? There's already a thread for both Exynos and Snapdragon. Everything you need to know should be covered there.

If you're on Exynos Oreo, go to https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/themes/app-collection-note-9-exynos-gcam-t3892545

If you have the Snapdragon variant I suggest following the method on Reddit, r/GalaxyNote9. Just search "Note 9 - fully working Gcam port Snapdragon" in the search bar. Everything works for me, just be sure to follow the steps mentioned in the post.
PS: Pretty new here, I can't post links yet .

There's a huge thread about this already in the apps and themes section. It's labeled working GCAm for Snapdragon.

Hey everyone
Thank you for the help.
I have started a new thread because every thread I went to supplied a camera that were really unstable and I was beginning to forget which ones I have downloaded, so I decided to make a thread.
I have a UK Exynos version and I have still not found a good one. I had a S7 edge before this and that Gcam Apk was brilliant, never failed and was always stable. I have come over to N9 and there have been so many bad ones.
Also there all having this really bad contrast problem, looks like I have some ULTRA flash...looks awful

This is how a image looks

Based on the very quick read I just did in the Exynos thread, there is no one-apk solution available and likely won't be in the near future. What that means is that you must use a separate app for night sight, and another for regular daylight shooting. That is why you're getting overexposed photos.
Again - you could have asked this in the same thread. No need to clutter up the board

After trying this I thought, "Why would anyone want this? I mean, we have regular GCam which takes excellent photos while this is just a barebones build. Oh, and images look worse than the stock cam.
