Hello,
I just received my Mi A2 lite, and all seems perfect, except one thing : snapchat. I was before under iOS so, I didn't have any problem with this.
The thing is that there are black stripes on the sides of the photos and these are of poor quality (neither of these two problems on instagram; good photos and no stripes, because the app uses a correct ratio). Ok, this is the same on all the android phones, and we have to wait for updates (after all, instagram did it...).
But, this perfectly works on the pixel ones, and I saw that we had this :
- https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...0-pixelexperience-p-unofficial-t3840551/page1
- https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...ble-camera2-api-install-google-t3846264/page2
So, do you thik that Camera2 API or PixelExperience P could solve the problem ?
And otherwise, would you have some tips to treat the black stripes ?
I am using PixelExperience and my snapchat is working fine, so it may be the os
So, HoangP05 sent me a picture while having PixelExperience and the stripes problem is still there (but the picture was of good quality). I think that the only solution is to wait that Snapchat updates the app for the phones which have our screen ratio.
hello,
does your snapchat app crashes ?

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:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/settings03/
hey, is there a fix for black frontcam pictures in gcam or maybe a version with portrait mode and possibility to disable hdr for frontcam?
all pics with gcam and hdr enabled in frontcam just turn black
Try an alternative port/version of the app.
My phone is off and charging at present, but I believe I'm using: -
MGC_5.2.022_1.0.apk (BSG, 2018-05-31)
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Why didn't you post in this thread, instead of starting a new one?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/themes/google-camera-mod-bsg-t3784060
this is a common error for Redmi Note 5 AI / Global / China.
it's due to our omnivision fron sensor not procesing the pic size correctly or something like that. I asked @defcomg for help and he is looking at some logs and sending me so things to try. I think we should make a thread for our device specific bug.
I agree on opening a thread for this specific bug so that someone might help I guess or it maybe highlighted.
Yeah, we are patiently waiting for hdr+ on front camera...

hello thogether, i finally found a fully working gcam.
i started a new threat for this!
have fun blitzkid
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/themes/gcam-black-frontcam-pics-t3800851
It works for me too, but only the first time. If I go to the gallery and come back or any other action and come back, it doesn't work... black photo again... Any solution?
Same problem here. It worked for a while and then stopped. Any solution? Only black photos with front camera and hdr
Any idea to fix poor camera result in "Video Calling Apps" like Whatsapp, Skype etc?
Is there any Custom or MIUI rom for Note 5 Pro where camera works just fine during videos calls instead of being dark, blurry and grainy making it look like a VGA camera from a decade ago in 3rd party apps like Whatsapp, IMO, Skype, Facebook etc? I tried many versions of MIUI 9 and 10 (Stable & Beta) also tried latest Lineage, Nitrogen and PE Extended custom roms but result is same horrible camera result in video calls.
The camera works fine in Google Duo and built in Camera app so the issue is not with the camera. This is a major bug every user is facing it in RN5P and MIUI forums are full with threads on this bug but i haven't seen any youtuber mentioning this bug at all although there are a like a million videos about RN5P on youtube discussing same features over and over again.
Roms i tried:
MIUI 9.5.19
MIUI 9.6.4
MIUI 10.0.1
MIUI 10.0.2
MIUI 10.0.4
MIUI 8.10.25 Beta
MIUI 8.11.1 Beta
MIUI 8.11.8 Beta
PE Extended Latest
Linage OS 15.1 Latest
Nitrogen OS Latest
All of the above mentioned Roms had this issue.
So any idea how can i fix this bug or if there is any rom with a fix for this issue? This is really poor from Xiaomi to have a 13MP front camera with a bug like this and they are not even willing to fix it.
Use google duo problem solved

That's not a solution i can't ask everyone to install Google Duo just because my phone video calling sucks in other apps so they need to stop using those apps too.

Atleast in recent mobiles google duo comes pre installed..
Right now there is no fix.. wait for future updates, Xiaomi is enabling camera2api in their mobile and hopefully Xiaomi will enable camera2api in our device

I enabled camera2api and also tried roms with api enabled but result was same i guess it's something to do with the firmware not roms?

It can also be problem with those apps... Can't blame Xiaomi alone... Camera2api from Xiaomi can improve the overall quality because OEMs have complete control over camera blobs

I found out that if in video call, I switch between front and back camera, the quality changes.
Hi, does anyone else have problems with camera aspect ratio.
I'm only able to use 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, And I would like to use 18:9 but I can't find solution for that.
Is there something on my phone which define my camera to only use those ratios which I mentioned above. And if there is could I somehow change it.
I got it working on Google lens, actually did nothing. But in oneplus camera, snapchat, it's annoying. I tried to install other versions of camera but it only let me to use 4:3+1:1 or 4:3+1:1+16:9 depend on version. It escapially annoys me on snapchat when I get that HUGE black bar on bottom of screen, it's caused by camera not app resolution because it works well on if camera is not counted.
I'm using lineage os 16. And device is oneplus 5t.
I would appreciate if someone would tell me if they know how to fix it. Ask me if something wasnt understandable my English isn't greatest.
Thanks
Hello there,
Recently after updating my OnePlus 7t to open beta 3 I've noticed a strange issue with the cameras. About 2 hours after every reboot camera related features start malfunctioning. I can't use face unlock, because "camera is being used by other apps", I can neither use the stock camera app because I get a toast notification saying "the camera is in use". The main back and front camera seems to be working in every other app like snapchat, gcam (although telephoto and ultrawide don't work on gcam). After reboot everything goes back to normal for some time.
I tried:
- cleaning data of all camera services and the camera app itself and face unlock app
- re-adding my face model
- uninstalling AUX camera magisk fix (which enables telephoto and ultrawide to work in gcam)
Is anyone else having this issue? Iwould love to solve this problem without reverting back to open beta 2, as it lacks some features I like in OB3. Thanks in advance for help!

I am facing the same issue with the latest beta update? Got any fix for this?
Are you sure you dont have some app spying on you. Probably using the camera thats why its being reported in use
It's caused by GCam. Not sure about stock OOS cam.

I doubt it, as the issue is only in stock Oxygen OS apps (camera, face unlock). My theory is that they use some camera service made by Oneplus which has broke in my phone. Other apps, such as Snapchat or Gcam do not utilise such service, and the main cameras work just fine in those apps (telephoto and ultrawide don't work, because they propably must be accesed via this service). But it's just my theory
