Camera2api questions (OTA and enable/disable) in MIUI - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

I have this question before unlocking the bootloader only for the Gcam, after enabling the camera2api, the other updates continue to work properly ?, is there no risk of Bootloop?
Following a similar issue, is the problem that when enabling the camera2api the front camera stops working? if so, is it possible to deactivate the camera2api by PC with ADB? what would the command be?
Thank you in advance

The best thing would be to enable Camera2API via this magisk module. That way you don't have to edit build.prop every time you want to enable or disable Camera2API or applied a system update. You can easily enable/disable Camera2API via magisk manager.

Don't know about MIUI. I am on Resurrection Remix May 26 build with opengapps (nano) and this module is working perfectly for me.
I am using Google Camera Mod by BSG.

Please go through this thread where you can achieve without root

7.1.2 will work fine with front and rear potrait and video recording too.
The version which is most stable and i use is "GcamMod5 from arnova v1.6"
And rom i use is lineageos official
Smooth best in performance too!
Rom is your choice but 7.1.2 based roms are best for modded gcam!
Did you flashed any fix to enable HAL 3 Or just directly flashed the GCAM ?

I don't know about magisk module fix
But i do it like this:
1. Install the app from playstore called "build.prop editor"
2. Give root access to the app
3. Tap edit icon. Go to the last line and add without quotes "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1"
4. Save it and reboot. Done.
I'm sure that module of magisk must contain this line and add it to the correct file
So what i said is manually enabling it.
Flashing that module will reduce your work!

add this code to ur build prop file usin a root file explorer like es and reboot :-
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
or search for camera 2 api magisk module on google and flash it
and for ROM I'd suggest viper os v3.1.1 Android v7.1.2
most stable and customizable rom available for our land in my view ?
Use viper os 7.1.2 aroma best rom .
TBH I think GCAM performance in 7.1.2 better than 8.1

I am using magisk 16.3, it have not any problem
With dev 8.6.21 can use magisk 16.4
Could you elaborate the requirement of safetynet and magisk hide? I'm a tyro here.
Please elaborate .I m also having same problem
Usually the only reason why magisk SafetyNET fails is that Xposed is installed in SYSTEM or in SYSTEM-LESS mode. If you want to pass SafetyNET, you have to remove xposed from the device itself, bc xposed is a framework modification and the framework is included in the SYSTEM, any modification of it would trigger SafetyNET Fingerprint check. Just like rooting a Samsung and triggering Knox, only safteynet fail can be reversed unlike Knox.
Hello, i tried to install Magisk and xposed, but i have bootloop ...
How to fix it, it is possible to install them on miui 10 last stable ?
Link for magisk, xposed framework ?

Can't find Camera2 API Enabler in Magisk

Hi! Just installed a custom ROM in my phone and I've been searching for the Camera2 API Enabler but I can't find it in Magisk :<

Download a build prop editor and Google what lines you need to add to enable camera2 API... There doesn't need to be a magisk module for everything

Thanks, but my question was the inverse: I want to root, typically I did using TWRP and flashing magisk zip. I was guessing if Magisk supports Poco F5 already.

This method is not recommended due to A/B partitions and current TWRP development for A12/13.
And root for what?

I use root for two main purposes: ad blocker in hosts (as I also use VPN service, so I don't want to keep VPN busy with ad blocker) and removal of bloatware with magisk debloater.

Xiaomi.eu ROM for 12 Turbo / Poco F5 with root is great, because one can install among others ad-block apps such as AdAway and block all ads in apps (Youtube excluded). I rooted xiaomi.eu (via magisk and "boot.img") couple of days ago and it's working great. You're right, when you wouldn't recommend rooting via TWRP and flashing magisk.zip for the reasons you mentioned in post #4 above.
Have any of you tried installing viper4android magisk?
A lot of devices are being unable to install the old viper 4 android. I know there's a 64bit version now that usually works on devices that can't install the other one. It doesn't have all of the features it's missing headphones surround sound and gain increase. Which are the two best features of the whole vipers situation. So I want to purchase a Poco F5 or F5 pro. So I am wondering if viper is working?
You'll probably have to install magisk delta canary latest build because the new magisk v26.1 won't work with viper now either. It will work if you Install viper with magisk delta and then switch to magisk official v26.1.
Normally what you do is you install the busy box module, The James DSP 4.6 module, Selinux permissive module, audio modifications library 4.2 module and the viper for Android module finally. You don't have to use the James DSP but sometimes it corrects problems in the system to get viper to work. I'm not sure how much you guys are aware so I am trying to cover everything.
Pixel 6, 7 pro it won't work on. My tab S8 plus, S22 and S23 ultra it won't work on. Pixel 7 pro with AOSP roms make it work when those are available.

Worked like a charm for me on my Xiaomi 12X, install it as a magisk module.
