As everyone was asking for some guides and fixes of the Google Camera on our Mi Note 3 device, I decided to help you out with a guide and all necessary resources to get it working.
First of all, for people new to Google Camera, follow @dimi89 's guide as an introduction to all processes needed to achieve a working camera port.
To make it simple, you need to:
Unlock bootloader
Flash TWRP or boot it through fastboot (there are plenty of guides here)
Install Magisk systemless root through TWRP recovery
Flash my fixes module below to enable Camera 2 API and make front camera working as desired
Install the best APK for you from https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Be happy
Until now, we had it working but some features like Portrait mode, front camera HDR+ and portrait, plus front camera flash were missing.
With the help of @defcomg I managed to make a Magisk Module as a bundle that does both enabling Camera2API and adds necessary libs to fix the camera. You can download it below.
As per the apk of the GCam on your device, I recommend latest Arnova8G2 version. You can also find it at the bottom of this post. It is great and does not require any other settings after you apply the fix in Magisk.
Downloads here:
-Camera2API, Portrait mode + HDR on front camera fix (MAGISK MODULE) - https://mega.nz/#!M5gjSQxJ!K5Q4XmdRimI_x2xpOWexHR52qUi5sklOV7SVhWWo9RE
-Stable and autoconfig GCam - https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/...eCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9.apk
For any other questions, feel free to ask me.
IMPORTANT!! The fix for front cam may not work with all ROMs. It was tested on the following:
XIAOMI.EU Stable 9.5.4.0
XIAOMI.EU Stable 9.2.x.x
XIAOMI.EU Developer 8.3.22
Lineage OS
AOSP Extended
You can test it on your device on your own risk. If it does not work you can delete module from magisk.
Credits to @defcomg for the help with the library, @WebDingo for the magisk module and @Arnova8G2 for the amazing work with all GCam ports. Also crediting other developers for their great additions to this community.
Enjoy!
Great job
Great job Gcam now works very well, the only thing I noticed is that is laggy at times in portrait mode. Is it normal?
will it work on my mi5s?
Thank you, its working! Mi Note 3 xiaomi.eu 9.5.4.0

thanks bro for sharing

Anyone have flash via twrp fix version ?
Thanksss. With arnova v6 (and this beta) works fine. So I've a problem but...you have 60 FPS video? For me is ever 30 FPS and I search in every part of the web the way to have got 60 FPS in full hd. For me is very important. If you know a way, please tell me (also use another new custom ROM). Thanks

Hello Guys, i've ported stock MiCamera for Custom Roms.
Version 1.0
Bugs:
- shutter sound
Download:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SrfL3IBuy3-wXlyYmG-Gvi2RWGnGuiRH/view?usp=drivesdk
Just flash via twrp and reboot.
Can you port gallery as well? Or it's to hard?
First thank you SO MUCH for this I've been waiting for it for a long time, but I have a question : does it include all the features of stock camera like mirror pictures ?
HDR doesn't work, at least on my phone, los 15.1.
ty
Thanks for the port, gonna download and try it out (using your nuclear rom also btw )
PS: just curious, how do you unninstall a zip tat you install from recovery like this one?
---account closed
thanks first of all to u
i wanted to ask if the front flash works or not ?
Honestly it's just a skin of the MIUI Camera. Quality is awful, HDR doesn't work and no front facing flash.
Hi, does anyone have / can port MIUI camera from our stable / beta MIUI ROM to custom ROM
I really need this, I currently on AOSP Pixel Experience ROM, I havent found the best manual camera on Play Store, it really dissapointing compare to our manual in MIUI Camera
PS: Sorry for my bad English

@althafvly this is yours, isn't it?
Thanks ,any other way without root ?
tried it with Arrow fails to open
Can you just install a new version of the module over the old one or do you have to remove the old, reboot, then install the new one? I am using 185-2 on arrowos, and it does not work, will see if the new one does.
is this a Magisk module ?
Found the answer in Thread title
Sorry guys but still dosen´t understand what is this? would apreciate if someone explain it to me.
Thanks
It is a ported stock MIUI camera for custom AOSP ROMs. You have to install it using Magisk.

its a very broken and barely functioning MIUI camera port for non-MIUI roms
It wouldn't be wise to try and install it on an F3 device or similar as it will likely not function, or if you do get it to work you will end up with terrible and unreliable camera functionality
stick to stock MIUI or use gcam if you are deseperate
SINCE i intslled cutom rom , i have issue regard camera
any best apk of gcam , i need some help
