Lagging and slow camera experiance

Hi guys so usualy ma camera works good except in these cases:
1) when i use portrait mode - OMG it takes up to 10 sec pause between shots, sometimes less, but always too long. When I disable automatic lowlight enhancement and watermark it works bit faster, but way to slow.
2) when I take shot in portrait mode, and wish to see it right after taking it, it takes long time to transfer me to gallery.
3) When in video mode and press to start recording it takes between 3 and 6 seconds before camera starts recording.
4) Front facing camera, same laggy thing in portrait mode.
I'm on 9.5.13.0 stable global, my friend has same device and same version of miui and he has same problems.
I hope xiaomi fixes it ASAP.
Is this problem stil present on xiaomi.eu rom or/and miui 1p beta rom?

I am using 9.5.13.0 too, and I never have this problem. There are 1-2 users in other forum also face it, but I've never heard it anymore. If the problem persist, I should see everyone complaint about it in every page. But no one complain about it for the last few days.
Try to use other camera app, such as open camera. Try to see if the problem with the app or the device. You can try to clear data at the default stock camera to see if that helps.

9.5.13.0
No issues here. Try factory reset.

Same exact problem, any fix ?

I actually have the same problem. When I press the record button in video mode, it defniitely takes 3-5 seconds to actually start recording.

You can just click on beauty mode in camera app
And then just turn it off (0)
It might help to solve the problem of camera lag

Same Problem
I Am facing same problem. Portrait mode takes ages to open.

Same issue here
Same issue. It started after last update. Currently on 9.6.3.0

Hello, I'm facing those issues. The video takes ages to start recording. I'm currently at latest stable 9.6.4.0(OEIMIFD) Redmi Note 5 Pro Global.

How is the quality as compared to stock cam? Also does it support portrait mode?

stock quality is better, and no portrait mode (with background blurred right ? )

Same issue, even updated to 10.0.1.0 now

MIUI - 10.0.1.0 (Stable) Hi, I was facing to the same issue. My camera is very slow, lagging, sometimes not responding... I have found here that I should try Open Camera, I have installed it, tried, it works fine, but when I tried my default Camera, suddenly it worked. No lags or something like this now. Do not know why, but it helped.

I found this problem also when I turn on Beauty Mode. it occur when open Beauty for a while.

I have exactly the same problem as well. Open camera works fine. I'm on official 10.0.1.0.

Laggy Camera and Performance on Xiaomi FIX
I've just tried this and WORKS like a charm. Go to developer options and turn off Miui optimization. The font and icons will be bigger, but the experience is now great overall. Try it if you have lag issues with the Camera as well.

Cleared camera data after upgrade...
That got rid of my lag in camera

I have the same exact issue with the same MIUI version(10). Open camera also lags a bit..But not as much as stock....I don't want to use Open camera because The Quality and portrait modes aren't as good/available as in stock version. I really don't want to factory reset the phone...Please help...

Oh and also,Sometimes,When the lag is beyond 10 seconds,An error pops up saying,"Camera Error.Can't Connect to the Camera." And Camera app force closes it self..

Camera app with working Slow Motion for custom roms on One Plus 3?

Any camera app with working Slow Motion mode on custom roms?
I'm running LOS 15.1 rn and I've tried slow motion on Google Cam and OOS Camera. None of them work.
Any suggestions?

I to am looking for an answer to this. I had tried a few custom ROMs but came back to stock (well open beta) because of the camera.
I tried Google camera mod and it has the slow motion (with audio!) And HDR+.

But Google camera slow motion doesn't work for me. The camera freezes.

Where did you get the Google camera app from? I honestly don't remember how I got it. I'll have to have a look. But a quick look through magisk and there's a "Google camera fix" module. Maybe try that?

On oreo Gcam slowmo don't work.
You can install nokia camera work but not the same quality of oos camera..

the Nokia camera port have a working slow mo on Oreo...it's a little buggy but mostly works, search in the forums you'll find it.

Have you found any slow motion camera that works on Android Pie? I've tried Snapdragon Camera which crashes now but worked for Oreo. Nokia Camera is able to switch to slow motion mode, even save the recorded video but the output is the same as normal video.

Did anyone find an answer to this? I've heard that the OnePlus camera is on apkmirror and that could work..

Face unlock failed / Camera is in use

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

Lineage OS 18.1 Camera Issue

Hello everyone. I am Using Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 I have Lineage OS 18.1 Installed In it. Facing Issues with The camera thingy. Whenever I Take a photo the app shows photo has been saved in your gallery but when I check my gallery I cant find the photo I just clicked. Happens very often with me. Sometimes the flash doesn't work sometimes It does but when I take a photo with flash turned on the flash lights up but after viewing the photo I see no effect of flash I mean the photo Is not how it should be if the flash Has been turned on. Talking about optimization everything is fine. Just the camera is making me mad.
Is there any solution to that?
Can anyone help?
Thank you

Question Flickering Videos in Ultrawide Mode

Hi,
das anyone of you also experience flickering videos where the zoom mode kind of jumps quickly forth and back between ultrawide and regular mode?
Easiest way to reproduce:
1. Start camera app
2. Switch to "Camera"
3. Set zoom level to "0.7" (Ultrawide mode)
4. Now hold the trigger button pressed so that it not only takes a photo but instead captures a video
5. Stop recording
6. Playback recording.
Example - attached.

Anyone able to confirm or not to confirm this behavior?

Yes, I have this same. But wait until new Google camera app ver 8.5 will be realised and then check again.

does it only happen in this specific camera record mode? Did it happen before? Try another camera app (like Graphene Privacy Camera or MWP Gcam). also uninstall all updates for the google camera app, clear storage, restart, and test it again.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that was not my question or request
Have you tried it? Can you confirm it does (not) happen in your setup?
I have already a few users who have confirmed this and I am trying to get an idea of how widespread this issue occurs.
Btw, phone has been reinstalled already. It specifically happens in this mode only. That's why I have posted (hopefully) clear instructions about how to reproduce this issue.

Just installed ver 8.5 and tested. Looks like there is no more problem for me. Ver 8.5 is first version for Pixel 6a
