They literally just did
In today's update they enabled camera2 api. I didn't test it so I don't know if there is any real improvement.

Nice! Finally. Wich is the update? I've not receive nothing yet... But i will continue making some pressure. The developers must improve the camera software\drivers!
Thanks

It's 7.2.23 but they took it down because some app was crashing. Update should be back online later today or tomorrow.

But officially ou Miui.eu?

Is 7.2.24 update actually having a real camera improvement? I've been on LineageOs for a while now but there are a lot of problems with camera/video recording..

I've got 7.2.24 and there's no Camera2API. It's just on xiaomi.eu version I think. Since Manual Camera does not have full manual controls.

They've promised it, but for MIUI 9, which is due H2 this year.

Hi, is it still continues?

720p60fps/1080p60fps video recording

Im currently using miui 8 dev rom, tried using opencamera also still on 30fps.. those on miui 7 or cm13 can record on 60fps?
No it can't, I've also tried it, but it can't it is recording at 30FPS the CM13 camera app, I doubt that someone will figure it out soon, also the modified media_profiles.xml(for [email protected]) from Redmi note 2 did not changed anything and is not able to make it recording at 60fps, this will be the stupidest upgrade in my life, I bought RN3PRO to be able to record [email protected](but not really at 30fps but at 26FPS), [email protected], and to be able to play Half Life 2 on this device but not, I thought that if there is a compatibility between other adrenos and gltools to run Half Life 2 on full screen, RN3PRO will also be able to do it but not, not on 5.1 nor on CM13 with 6.0.1 Marshmallow(even cruising in the very beginning, probably nvidia and valve need to do update for Android M ...

Well, I must admit you're right. There's something wrong about this phone, and whenever the light isn't perfect there's a huge framedrop, which is hilarious as for class of this device.

Try it on a very very light place and it should work, it will not work in a low light room or just try to aim in the lamp in the room and it will workout.

Are there any bugs so far? Is the camera working properly? Ive seen some posts about buggy wifi or gps - have you experienced any of these so far?
Thanks!
does this by any chance unlock band 20?
No unlocked band 20, no bugs and camera excellent.
I flashed the android one in my mi 5x, found that the wifi could connect but no access to Internet
flashed. everything is working flawless! awesome "port". feels like original rom! (which it actually is) camera is as good as on stock! battery too!
is everything working as intended? I'm planning to buy a new device soon. mi 5x is cheaper than mi a1 lol
it supports OTA Updates? (official updates, of course)

It said that "Doesn't support OTA Update"
That's good!:good:
Can anyone confirm if future updates from Mi A1 say for example android O can be ported to Mi 5x as well just like for this one?
Fingerprint problem
I flashed this port. And I don't have fingerprint. I don't have it in settings. Anywhere. Should it work on this firmware?
UPDATE
I can update OTA?
Anyone flashed October ota, hmmmh does this port also support A/B partition??
Its horrible Ota notifications was here but don't know it will caused when i downloading that

Focus issues when recording video at 1080p 60fps

Hi guys,
I bought the honor last week and i am so far very satisfied.
However I noticed, that the autofocus rarely works when recording 1080p (60fps) video.
At 90% it does not work at all (unless I touch the screen to focus on a certain point).
When recording 1080p (30fps) and 4K the focus works perfectly and the picture gets sharp without my intervention.
Did you notice similar behaviour on your Honor View 10?

Honor does phased rollouts for their updates.. The latest one might come within a week or 2.. I'm not sure how the camera behaves in 130.. Maybe someone else will share their feedback [emoji106]

Google Camera On Zenfone Max Pro Tested!

Hello everyone, I recently unlocked the bootloader of my Asus Zenfone Max Pro and installed Magisk to root the phone. All of this was done for just thing - Trying out the Google Camera as I do feel that the Stock Camera app is pathetic and that's the major reason why the Zenfone Max is not performing that great. For Google Camera to work, After you have rooted your phone, download this app called 'build.prop editor'. After it is downloaded search for 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled' The value would be 0 by default, Change it to 1 and then reboot your phone. Now install the Google Camera apk(Whichever you feel like, I'm attaching the one that I keep using) and you're good to go. Everything including HDR+, Front And Back portrait Mode, Video Stabilisation works.
Here is the complete video review along with Comparisons with the Redmi Note 5 Pro On Google Camera.
Thanks....google cam is definitely better.
How to root Zenfone max peo
Now that you have rooted are you able to use Tez ?
Wow man that looks far better!
Can you upload a video
Can you post some pics from front cam? Is there any noticeable improvement over stock cam??

hey brother, first big thanks to you for doing this.
yesterday i just ordered 3gb version of this and glad to find your google camera app review. i earlier saw your videos with max pro m1. i like the way you reviewed it, like a daily usage user unlike others who do monotonous review which gives the feel that the person did not even use it.
https://www.gsmarena.com/asus_zenfone_max_pro_(m1)_zb601kl-9173.php
Anyways, my query is regarding google camera app on max pro m1 ?
1) In the specs, its given that phone supports 1080p/60fps recording. During its announcement it was mentioned that such feature will come ? Could you please check whether google camera app provides the same ?
2) And in the video you have mentioned with google camera app, support for EIS comes in ? Could you please elaborate more on that.
And part from this, please give your general view with new updates how much is the Fingerprint sensor and Faceunlock is making life better or worse as most says because of its slow speed?
Cheers,
Arnold
Any apk for unrooted device? All can't root the device, as it has risk of making phone dead.
What happens to the Battery life and futures OTA updates !?
Thanks for the post
Indeed am looking forward to root my asus max pro m1 and install google camera
But Need to know how it affects the battery life and Future OTA updates that the Phone is likely to receive.
Looking forward for an answer !
Cheers and Peace!

It doesn't affect the battery life and apparently OTA Updates will work with Redwolf Recovery. I haven't tested it since there is no new update to test with

I haven't found anything for unrooted phones. Rooting won't make your phone dead. There are ample amount of guides here on xda which are very simple.

I couldn't see 60fps option but I will try some other google camera apk and reverify. About EIS, yes it works with Google Camera. Sometimes you get some artifacts on the left/right edge but overall the footage seems a lot smoother. I still find fingerprint sensor to be slower and face unlock is a hit or miss. I'd say it works 70% of the times. Struggles sometimes in indoor or dim lighting conditions.
i just use Oneplus Camera, i think its still better than Google Camera. Go find it at apkmirror.

Question The camera on Mi 11i

What are your thoughts regarding the main rear camera on this phone? I assumed that it was worse than the camera on Mi 11 and Mi 10T Pro since the sensor is smaller in size and lacks OIS. However this youtuber claim that camera performance on 11i actually is better than on Mi 11. In the comparison below with Mi 11 Pro the difference was also smaller than I expected.
I have Mi 11i now. My first impression is that the camera is disappointing. Will probably send it back. Mi 10 and Mi 11 takes more detailed stills. But have to do some more testing.

Hi guys, regarding the main Mi11i 108MP camera, I'm curently strugling to find out a camera replacement, does anyone has an idea what model to use ? Any OEM reference ?
I have the Mi11i and the camera is great, what are u talking about? This is a budget phone, do u expect iphone 12 pro or S21+U quality?
The camera is better than these devices ive tested: S9+, OP7 Pro, A32 5G, OP 8T, OP Nord 2, Iphone 8, SE, X
Do you use the 108 mode and fiddle with settings? Or do u just use nomal mode and tap and take the photo? Thats not how u take a good photo, thats only for iphone (dumbed down os).
I find the camera fine as long as you do a little editing. Low light and night shots are a little iffy but you can still take great shots as long as you edit the photos. Photos in day light are fine. My old phone was an XS Max and the camera scores better than that in testing. Again edit the photos.
Pictures are almost the same as my mi 10. All ok.

I'm using mi 11i for 2 months and the camera quality is not good, autofocus is struggling in low light.
ofcourse it has no OIS so it ramps up ISO thus useless in low light
I have both Mi 11i och Xiaomi 11T in front of me. 11T takes much better low light shots compared to 11i despite having the same main camera sensor and Dimensity 1200 instead of SD888. Probably more optimized software on 11T.
Camera is good for me it takes good selfie and landscape shots. I was also thinking camera might be garbage and this phone can't be used for photography but I was wrong. It is not excellent nor garbage.
The Camera is good but the stock camera app is really bad, taking pictures with pro mode (manually) or with Gcam is astonishingly good.
but the main camera app over-sharpens and over processes the image resulting in noise.

About cameras, I'm disappointed by the 108 MP photos, as camera (digital) zoom is limited to x2, which is a shame in such a HiRes lens.
