Mi5s autofocus problem

Hi all
Got new mi5s 4gb vrsion, autofocus do not work when camera start for 10sec-1min , after that all ok
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAZhf2_zmSg
Same thing on oem and eu rom ,as well as few camera apps.
Any help appreciated

Please try autofocus not on a TV, they tend to be hard to focus on. Try it outside in daylight please.

Same thing m8
First time autofocus does not wok for 1 minute, than after than when you start it, does not work for 10-15 seconds.. Works normal for close up objects right on, but for far, no.

Same thing here... Could that be a driver issue?

This issue is known in at least one custom rom. Please make sure that you run an official rom. I believe the xiaomi.eu (not official rom) is also ok.

I'm running latest dev ROM from xiaomi.eu.
I also have the same issue on lastest official China global and China dev

That's not good then Not sure if it's a hardware issue in your case. Haven't read of this issue in the English xiaomi.com forum, so there can't be many with this issue.

I have same problem (4/32GB version). My mi5s arrived today and I couldn`t believe. Now I have two questions in my head "Is that software or hardware" and "Is it possible to be fixed"

I found a workaround (IDK if this works only for me)... Just open stock camera then open and close camera settings (gear icon). The autofocus should work now!
Let me know if this works for anyone else

I have the same issue when I try to take a photo or record a video . We are a lot of people with the same error. You can check the MI5S official forum at MIUI Forum and you'll see more threads talking about the same but there's no anwser from Xiaomi yet.

I'm also looking for a fix... Maybe only a patch for stock camera app until the problem is solved by xiaomi. I'll keep you updated

When I look to /etc/camera directory I can see 3 configs files for imx378 and two specifics for two manufacturers : liteon & semco (samsung). My sensor seem to be a liteon. Could the bug be link to a specific manifacturer ? Maybe a drivers to optimize for a specific manufacturer ?

Some people say that the last EU ROM, 6.12.22, improves the autofocus. Can anyone confirm it?

For me it's the same as on 6.12.8, BUT I tried the unofficial cyanogenmod for MI5S which seems it hasn't any issues in camera autofocus

I have the same problem.
But shaking, or knocking don`t help.
Even if i wait 15-30-60 sec, autofocus don`t work.
But first 2 weeks it works perfectly.

???

Maybe placebo effect but people are saying Global rom had improved fingertip detection rate.
If i were you, i would flash as stock as possible, recovery, bootloader, lock status, everything, just to determine software versus hardware failure.
Hope for the best, as this kind of life cycle premature failure freak me out, first stucked autofocus sensor now this!!!

I had a problem which seemed to be hardware related after flashing the Chinese developer ROM and then later restoring a Miui EU ROM from a backup. My problem was with audio - there was no sound coming from the speaker or headphone output. I did diagnostic tests which failed - indicating a hardware problem.
It was only after re flashing the EU Miui ROM that the problem was resolved.

i solved it
i think this was problem of driver
so i needed rollback of driver
first. i flashed 6.10.13 eu rom over 6.12.29
it occurs bootloop
second. i flashed 6.12.29 over 6.10.13 again. and fingerprint works like charm again!

Exists the cyanogenmod for Mi5s?

Still very buggy. We have to wait for xiaomi to release the source code to get nice CM .
The fingerprint happened to me too, it just stopped working.
Flash the stable global using fastboot, it will erase everything, and will be great again.
Don't restore with Titanium backup, I had all kind of weird problems everytime I tried.

One of the worst fp sensors ever. I tried all the tricks mentioned in several places, detection rate stays very low.

How do you compare to CM14?
Camera works OK?

I can install on US version, or wait ?

You can install, but I think the sound problem will be there. The kernel is the Crisbal one but the Ramdisk in boot.img has some changes so, let see....

There is problem with Samsung camera - the same as in 14.1. But I've found, that standard camera app in 13 works OK. The problem is with Open Camera and Google Camera (this three apps I've tested so far).

Maybe there's no camera v2 support? It should just take a prop file edit, probably build.prop IIRC.

did anyone tests the CN version for daily use?

Standard camera in Lineage OS 13 MM in camera2, it seems that samsung camera need camera2 api to be activated.
Open camera has a switch in settings with this you can activate cam v2 api. Try and tell me if something goes better.
You can try also this:
How to enable Camera2 API?
1) install buildpropeditor
2) Open build.prop, make string 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1' (without cotes), save, reboot.
has this helped somehow?
P.S. BTW how is the sound on this latest MM 13 ROM?

@ABM30 , did you receive message from me? It could help with camera (i am not sure if in this ROM too, but..who knows)

No change. Neither switching in Open Camera camera2 helped, nor editing build.prop and restarting. Nothing changed.

We need a new kernel, the Crisbal one used in previous attempt for CM13 US (AND ANOTHER ROMs to) have the speaker problem.
question, have you tried the version from march 11, it is booting up? what is working and what not (including GPS, SCREENCAST, WIFI TETHERING)?

A new try for US VERSION: http://www.mediafire.com/file/lavevxn25ief5d2/CM13_X800_US_ABM30_21-mar17-01_-_noROOT_-.zip
Install in TWRP after wiping cache, Dalvik/ART, DATA and system. (AT YOU OWN RISK AS USUAL!)
After flashing wipe cache and DALVIK/ART
Let see if it is booting up!

Tested on my X800 CN since you created this thread. This ROM can be used in production ! Well done ABM30 !
- WiFi : Ok
- 4G : Ok
- GPS : With LineageOS 14 I thought I had a hardware problem. With this version, it's perfect (5 to 10 sec to get a clear signal in my car)
- Phone Call : Ok
- Tethering : Ok ! That's a great news !
- Sound : Ok. Tested with internal, external (perhaps too loud), bluetooth and wire headphone
- Bluetooth : Ok
- Battery consumption : Ok
- Camera : Ok
- Automatic on/off while covering screen : Doesn't work
- Other sensors : As usual

Hi.
The system flashed well but remained in the circular logo and did not start.
Thank you for trying to make it work.
EDIT
I'm looking at recovery and it does not install system.
The installation process does it in a few seconds

I have installed this ROM at my Le One X800 US but I have no information abou the battery. It is 0%.

Mi5S Fingerprint not working :(

Hi everyone, first of all, thanks for being such nice community!
I've just received my new Mi5S, played with it for a bit and flashed xiaomiu.eu stable (because I was told to not use the 'fake' banggood global rom) , then flashed the latest xiaomi.eu dev (Android 7.0, I guess).
Everything was fine, but I tried to use the fingerprint sensor and it works very poorly, having to press more than 100 times to setup my finger, and then, it was very inconsistent to unlock.
I've tried many roms to try to understand the problem: Ressurection Remix, Xiaomi Global Stable 7.5.25 (using TWRP, flashing over "fake banggood global rom"), all have the same issue.
My question are...
Can i fix it flashing the global xiaomi image fastboot? (Maybe it's a corrupt/incompatible fingerprint firmware?)
Is there any difference from using TWRP and flashboot to flash? (I couldn't install the stable ROM after installing the dev, in order to downgrade, i restored my backup from 'fake banggood global rom', and then flashed xiaomi.eu stable // maybe the .zip doensn't come with all firmware? //
Will my bootloader LOCK if i flashboot? (my phone came unlocked from banggood).
Maybe my sensor is faulty? I guess it was working with the "banggood fake rom", but I tested briefly (it unlocked a few times, at least).
Sorry my english!

This is normal. We need to wait for Xiaomi to fix it.

I saw your post on Xiaomi eu too ?
Fingerprint for mi5s is well optimized now, it only takes 0.5 sec for me to unlock. Try to update your rom.
Well, try to record your finger horizontally.
For detailed how to, check this post http://en.miui.com/thread-439364-1-1.html

Try different techniques when registering your Fingerprint. I found applying a tiny amount of pressure on the sensor worked best for me. You don't need to press it you just have to make sure your skin is flattened on the surface.
Also a mistake I found when I saw my friend registering his fingerprint was he was registering around the center of his thumb, while in practice he used the tip of his thumb.
If done correctly I can unlock my phone scanning my thumb vertically or horizontally even though I registered it only vertically.

Try to install ZCX TWRP, mount persist partition, go to persist through TWRP file manager and rename fingerprint folder to fingerprint-old, after that, as I think, wipe needed.

Same here, have Mi 5s with MIUI 8.0.3.0 (MAGMIDI), received update to 8.5.3.0 (MAGMEID). Was happy to finally receive some update, but everything is pretty much the same. Hoped at least that the fingerprint sensor will perform a little better, but until now its even worse, doesn't respond at all. This **** sensor piss me off, before this phone I used fingerprint all the time... We get zero support from Xiaomi about this fingerprint sensor!! This is my first and last Xiaomi mobile device..
Anyway before reading this thread I considered installing different roms , maybe this stable one from Xiaomi.eu : xiaomi.eu_multi_MI5S_V8.5.3.0.MAGCNED_v8-6.0.zip
But in my understanding that didn't solve it for you, right?

EvoX official already supports slow motion at 240fps out of the box with default gcam. So no need of flashing this mod.

Development regarding note 7 pro(Violet)
Dude I am appreciating your work and now same problem applies to note 7 pro as well it has maximum capability of 480fps but still it is recording in 120fps. So please help for note 7 pro to unlock atleast 240fps!

I tried it with multiple gcams, including preferred one and various 7.2, 6.2 and 6.1 versions. 120fps works fine, when I turn to 240 it just crashes. I think the issue is that I have Android 10. MIUI version: 20.3.26 beta
UPD. Got MIUI update 20.5.14, tried again. My best try: trCamera_REBORN_V5_deep_end_final.
1/4 / 1/8 switch works, but has no effect (both options do 1/4)

Thank you for your response

Don't works on MIUI 11
I test this mod on MIUI 10 and works perfectly but when I try to install it on MIUI 11 it doesn't works and breaks stock cam. Can you fix it ? Maybe only works with oldcam blobs

If anyone managed to use this mod, please write down specific ROM and GCam mod you've used it with.
AIDA64 says I have S5KGM1 sensor.

redmi Note 7, ReloadedOS 20200809, newest gcam from parrot043 works fine, but the focus is either too close or too far when in 240fps and I have to move to get the thing I'm filming in focus

I wanna make me sure: Redmi Note 7 Global = Just Redmi Note 7, yeah?
