Problem with Camera after Custom Roms

So I flashed 3 ROMS from openkirin.net,
1. LOS
2. Carbon OS
3. RR Os
Everything is fine except the camera apps there. All three Roms have apps that just click normal pics whenever i switch to portrait mode (I must add they contain stock emui camera app) the apps just hangs.
Does anybody have a solution to this to take portrait mode photos on custom roms.
Or any camera ( can be third party ) that can allow me to do so.
Thanks in advance ?

Name any custom ROM. They're Camera are just bare bones. Having stock camera port is great actually. We can't really complain about camera since we don't have Gcam mod available for kirin devices.

Follow this procedure:
Dr.Anshuman said:
if you have unlocked your bootloader status and you want your original 'Locked' status instead of 'ReLocked' status, follow the procedure.
1. fastboot reboot bootloader
2. fastboot oem relock UnlockCode this will ReLock your bootloader
3. switch on your phone, go to developer menu and Uncheck the OEM unlocking
4. Reboot your phone, done , your Phone status is now "Locked" , FRP is also Locked , you can check it in fastboot mode
5. if you want to unloack FRP, then just go to developer menu and Allow oem unloack, this will turn off FRP but bootloader status remains "LOCKED" , it doesn't change to ReLocked.
Enjoy

After I entered relock command then it rolocked the bootloader and then it factory reset itself and reboot itself. When I went to disable the oem unlocking. It already got disabled. After that I went to check fastboot mode whether everything is unlocked. But it showing the 'relocked' but not 'locked' status. Anything to do sir???

are you on oreo?
on oreo, if BL is unlocked, developer oem unlocking option will freeze to "oem unlocking Allowed" so this procedure is not useful.
by the way, if you have untouched stock rom, then OTA updates will come even on unlock bootloader and
you can claim warranty with ReLocked status.

a question about bootloader unlocking/locking

If I flashed the stock MIUI 10 with miflash and by mistake I chose "clean all and lock", and the bootloader got locked again, should I wait again for the waiting period if I want to unlock it?! Or is the waiting period a one-time thing?
Thanks
once you have the permission from Xiaomi! you can unlock again with same procedure!
You have to wait only once to unlock the bootloader after that you can lock and relock bootloader anytime

Ok.
I actually haven't unlocked the bootloader yet, does the waiting time happen after I press the Unlock button on miui unlock app?
Because I once saw something like "getting the permission for your account" and it showed up for less than a minute and it's gone, but I didn't unlock it back then, so my question is, when exactly does the waiting period happen? Thanks a lot

Update options not listed in config, and no OEM unlock listed in Dev Options

The title pretty much describe the whole issue: I get a persistent notification that there's an OTA update to install, but touching the notification does nothing.
There seem to be no way of manually installing it either, because there is no update option listed in the configuration.
Can't unlock the bootloader either, because there is no OEM unlock listed in the dev tools.
I've never seen anything like this. Spent days researching, but found nothing. So here I'm hoping someone might have a clue about how to enable updates and OEM unlock in a situation like this.
Any help is appreciated.
This phone is a Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite model M1805D1SG, running Android 8.1 (OPM 1.171019.019.V9.6.6.0ODLMIFF)
you system is clean or modified (magisk etc)?

for unlocking the bootloader you have to use ADB tools. you can't just unlock it in developer setting.
for your problem i would recommend you too check the forums on how to unlock the bootloader with adb and then grab the latest official A2 lite rom (10.0.40. or something i guess) and flash it with the MiFlashTool.
this procedure will upgrade your device without any loss of data.
I'm telling you this because that's how i update my device (which is rooted and kernel modified) with no problems.

True. We usually need to run 'fastboot oem unlock' to actually unlock the bootloader. Problem is, the command needs one to enable OEM unlocking in the developer options beforehand, otherwise it fails. And I dont have any means to enable OEM unlocking in the dev options, because it is not listed at all!
And without that I'm unable of doing any flashing.
The only report I found regarding a missing an OEM unlock option in the dev tools concern Samsung S9. Apparently one needs to wait 7 days for it to appear. But such a thing is unheard of concerning a Xiaomi phone.

Strange
I'm on 9.6.11.0 version and it's there. You're on 9.6.6.0 version. Maybe there's someone who had experience with 9.6.6.0 and OEM unlocking but if not there's always the option to do an OTA update to a newer firmware version.
Just don't update to a 10.x.x.x version (Pie) if you want to keep Oreo

Bootloader will not get unlocked from settings. You need to use adb shell to unlock any android phone. Unless your phone came with an unlocked bootloader.

Well i am on Android 9, and it haves the same toggle. You have go to command prompt to officially unlock the bootloader. And that is already a hardship because you need an unlock code, Listen to @NekoMichi

This toggle doesn't actually unlock the bootloader, it only enables the Fastboot command for bootloader unlocking. In order to execute the command the bootloader key is required. Bootloader unlocking is not your average everyday task which is why there are 2 layers of security before you can unlock.

True, if it was any other phone brand. The unlocking process is much more simpler. Xiaomi - Wait a week or so to get BL unlock. Google Phones - command prompt to BL unlock, Asus, same with unlock tool. If it was before Huawei barred BL unlock codes, unlocking would not be a problem. Although.... Honor Note 10, Roms have started to come out but that is only if you can find a web page service that can give the BL unlock. Seems like Devs are pulling through for that device already.
Who knows, really, if devs want to take a stride with this device. Perhaps one day soon lol. :silly:
