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.

Hows the camera and video quality compared to stock? Have you noticed any bugs yet?

Stupid qn - do we need the ADT toolbox like the site says, or can we just flash with twrp? Could I also ask if Google Apps work fine with this custom rom? Currently away from home with work with limited data, but can't wait to try a custom rom out!

So you want to try it?

I've just installed. Everything seems fine so far, including working gapps. Except Bluetooth audio. My bluetooth headsets connect successfully, but no sound.... I never used Mokee firmwares before, how often they bring new updates (nightly, weekly)?... I hope they'll fix bluetooth problem very soon....

Maybe I found a bug on camera app. The image quality is at 12mp. Seems only to be one of the sensors. I don't know if it's the same on stock camera app from nubia. Maybe someone on stock can try to pull the apk and I will try to install it.

Mokee is pretty big. But more popular in Eastern countries. They have the same build policy as aicp f.e.

Thank you, working awesome, and gapps work. So quick and much better, I hope Nubia release an international ROM because I like their camera suite. Bluetooth is not working, but everything else is. To get into Fastboot mode it is Vol - and Power button, not Vol +/Pwr button as per the unlocking instruction in the other thread. This is just for other newbies like me that don't know no better.

How's the camera and video quality compared to stock? Better or worse?

Zip for debloat ROM: https://mega.nz/#!MdomCAwB!538ZJoNHosKh_viZ6lu1qy70Eko00Ay75MmNL48t-M4

ROM is working really good, could be perfect if Nubia Camera is added to it.

But when i install a custom rom (Android 5.0 Lollipop and higher version) camera stops and other problems like can't video call in whatsapp etc. Can someone knows why and solution?

I tried another app and the front camera works, but not the back one. Though with the default app I couldn't even test the front one, it closed immediately.
I know for a fact the camera worked fine before flashing the custom ROM, so it's not a hw failure.

When as the last time you checked the camera with a stock ROM? I searched around and there don't seem to be many people with this issue on the note 2. Your phone's model # is gt-n7100?

Yup, GT-N7100.
Last time I checked the camera was just a few days ago. And yeah I've searched for the issue a bit as well, didn't have an luck unfortunately...

Have you tried this ROM? --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-aicp-12-1-official-nightlies-t3569395/page85
I being using it as a daily driver for months, and it's the best one I ever had for this phone.
Few times I've had camera problems, but automagically resolved just after restarting the phone.
Give it a try, and let us know it this was an acceptable solution.
Best of luck.

Android stock ambient display on Oreo?

Hello guys,
I am on stock Oreo, is it possible please to get somehow the stock ambient display instead of Moto display? I have read that on some phones disabling moto app will bring back ambient display, but it didnt work out for me.
Thank you for your answers
Jakub

I don't think that there's a way to have stock ambient display with StockROM by Motorola. However, most of the CustomROMs have this ability.

Each CustomROM that I tried had some bugs. Unfortunately, all of them had slightly disorted sound during a call in comparison with StockROM. However, these ones (mentioned below) are the best in my opinion:
7.0 - debloated stock https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/rom-debloated-optimized-t3722396
7.1.2 - LineageOS 14.1 https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/7-1-x-lineageos-14-1-moto-g5-t3611973
I would recommend you to use this build of LOS 14.1, if you are interested https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GO7i7h1QQcD8oY3uUBr4a2u1gJzlRkzk/view. I faced a huge problem - apps like Snapchat, Instagram or Messenger started to freeze and force close randomly, but only with august 2018 build (the latest one). Reboot didn't help at all, reinstall of LOS or crashing apps fixed problem just temporarily. Flashing build from june 2018 (link mentioned in this paragraph) seems to be a permanent fix.
If you are running stock Oreo, you have to downgrade to Nougat first. Otherwise, your fingerprint scanner will not work with any Nougat based CustomROM (idk about Oreo ones ). How to downgrade a Moto device without getting hardbrick? It's simple - make sure, yours device's bootlaoder is properly unlocked. Then, flash everything except gpt and bootloader to avoid hardbrick while downgrading. Running "fastboot erase modemst1" and "fastboot erase modemst2" commands wipes IMEI, so exclude them also.
8.1.0 - AOSPExtended 5.4 https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/rom-aospextended-5-0-t3710925 with Alize v10 kernel https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W9s2Wd52buDLglqOX2cEsgHTD0qWFHbv/view.
I have already tried this combination and there was no problem while taking photos and recording videos using Footej Camera.
If you decide to try this ROM with gapps installed alongside, follow this tutorial before the first boot https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/how-to-repair-bootloop-oreo-roms-t3791189. Otherwise, your phone will be stuck in bootloop.

Thank you for your comprehensive guide to custom roms
It's shame there isnt any custom rom with everything working fine. I think I will go back to Lineage 14.1 and then buy a new phone. Motos arent the same since Lenovo took them.

Camera solution for Android 10 Custom Roms?

Hello Guys, thank you for joining me on this thread.
My question is :
I'm planning to Install Twrp and flash an android 10 custom rom. But in order to do that, I want to know if there's is Gcam, OOS cam or anyother camera module which I can use to retain the quality of pictures. If so, please link it here, I will try them ALL out, and others can use this thread as well. :angel:

You found something?

Nope. Literally no one has replied. Lol. Gcam could work, if installed properly. But I can't find how. Only installing the app gives pink bars, green tint and fc. Surely there's another way, a magisk module or settings to get it right. Haven't found it as of now. But derp Android 10 rom has the best cam in-built, even better than OOS people opinionate.
