(Oreo 8.1) camera's mechanical sound question - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

how come most Oreo roms have a loud mechanical clicking sound whenever one closes the camera app or switches away from it? there are a few roms that don't have it (omnirom for example which I'm using right now).
I'm just curious as to what changes exactly those few roms make that fixes the problem and why it's not more common amongst all 8.1 roms. It's not a recent fix either I remember using Cardinal-AOSP a few months back (don't know if it's still active) and that one was fine too.

I always thought this noise is normal because all roms i ever used have it. Even original MIUI.

[Q] CM 7.1 low sound volume and a market that keeps freezing

Hello, for the past few weeks i've been using cm 7.1 on my i9100 and I'd be glad to say that the rom is perfect, if some issues didn't come up. Firstly, since the first day of use, i've realized that the sound volume (both from speaker and headset) is fairly low compared to samsung's rom (to be frank going above 50-60% in volume options doesn't make a difference). Is there any solution to this? CM 9 apart from the "known issues" got that bug too?
The second problem came up a few days ago and it's related to the android market app. Everytime you scroll through an app's details, the phone freezes and the only way to restore it, is to turn it off and on again. Currently, i'm using app brain which doesn't seem to have that problem, but i really love google's app. So, any solution to that?
Try the app in my sig to give the headset/headphone volume a boost, works really well & only distorts the volume at very high levels (>75% which you shouldn't need). There are apps on the Market which can boost the speaker volume, not sure how well these work as I haven't tried any.
So far as the Market is concerned, I use a CM based rom and have had that problem as well. The only fix I've come across/read about is to restore a much earlier version of the market (hopefully someone else reads this thread and has a fix that can help both of us ). I haven't done this myself as I've trained myself to do all my scrolling thru app details on my PC first & simply do the install/update on my phone without scrolling thru the details , but I'm sure a search on here should dig up something/the apk you need.
Ask in the right place may get an answer quicker .

Droid DNA SMS Problems When Using AOSP ROM

This has been an ongoing problem I'd say since KitKat ROMs released for me anyway. I've seen other people post about it but it's kind of sporadic as far as who it's happening to because the majority of people don't seem to have this issue. When using an AOSP based ROM no matter what I've used (currently ParanoidAnroid, in the past LiquidSmooth, CM, and a few others) my SMS capabilities are very hindered. I can send one, maybe two texts and then it will just not send anymore until I reboot the phone. Incoming text still come in just fine. It's just when I text to someone it will sit there sending for about 30 seconds follow by "Unable to send". I tried some of the workarounds people suggested in specific ROM threads that they thought might fix it to no avail (using 3rd party SMS app, disabling Google Movies). What ends up happening is that I'll have to flash back to a Sense ROM which isn't the end of the world but I really like using the AOSP based ROMs as I can do so much more with those in the means of customization and they just seem more snappy and "familiar" to me, coming from a Galaxy Nexus that I was always tweaking and trying out new ROMs.
Has there been any fixes that people have found for this issue? As I said right now I'm running ParanoidAndroid, the latest build with PA GAPPs and I'm afraid I'm going to have to go back to a Sense app once again. I waited a couple months before flashing any more AOSP based ROMs thinking with all the updates that get done to some of these ROMs maybe whatever was causing this to happen would be magically fixed in newer versions of the ROMS. Any help/tips you could shoot my way I'd be very appreciative!

Good Stable CM13 ROM from existing ones

I am currently on MIUI 7 global stable and want to flash CM13. Can you please guide me to which are the options I have currently for :
- Good calls and call volume (I use 3G only..no LTE)
- Bluetooth pairing and music through bluetooth headphones
- Working Camera
- Fingerprint (I have a FPC102..checked via AIDA64)
No offense but I saw most of the devs mentioning in the bugs section "You Tell" but there are some ifs and buts..
I already have TWRP flashed..
Most of you might have already tried all the ROMS..hence asking your opinion..thank you dear friends and the wonderful devs
Official CM13 has almost no problems for me (I say almost because I haven't encountered any that haven't been fixed in a day or two). Fingerprint is faster than MIUI tbh. Must be because fingerprint is baked-in in android marshmallow. Don't have to bother with MIUI force closing apps (torrent apps always closed after some time in MIUI) . Multitasking is great! With MIUI my phone felt like a 1.5 GB phone with its aggressive memory handling. Regarding camera the camera quality may have degraded slightly or it may just be placebo. But the MIUI camera app is definitely nicer and faster. That's the only thing I'm missing from MIUI. Some people have problems like fingerprint not working (even if Aida show FPC102), battery always stuck at 2% or 50%, led not working etc with official Cm13 but none of those problems for me . So stability would probably depend upon your luck.
I haven't tried Santosh's CM13 as it is said to lock bootloader again. I have tried resurrection remix but some bugs like recent apps showing even Android system (which has been present since resurrection lollipop in all devices. It doesnt hinder much but Android system is not supposed to show in recent apps. To understand what I'm talking about, when you open say a YouTube link it shows menu for which app you would like to open the link with and even that will be present in the recent apps.) and data not working ( data may be fixed by now though). I haven't tried other because Official one satisfied me very much.
Try the official one for once and see if you have any bugs. If not restore MIUI. MIUI 8 is coming and it seems it has some cool features but nothing to bring me back to MIUI.

You can try Audio Compatibility Patch. It has worked for me on other devices, and the Dev just updated Samsung support two days ago. I'm about to give it a try myself. I have the same problem. Viper doesn't process audio from my browser. I believe it's a deep buffer issue. Only my system apps get processed. It should work without magisk too. Definitely read the post before flashing it. I've honestly never had an issue using it in the past though.
Correction, will not work without magisk! I can't get it flash using SuperSU for root. If you have magisk, I would definitely give it shot. I'm going to look into swapping my superuser so I can test it.
And there is a another mic problem in whats app only on AOSP based roms

This is not another mic problem, is the same present on all the aosp based roms for our devide, im testing the AOSP Extended 4.6 and AICP 7.1.2 and i fix every bug (low volume speaker, incall problems like low volume incall, low volume in record voice fixed too, but the unique bug i cant fix is the 3rdpartyapp robotic voice bug.
I hope to clear everything here and thakyou for your response.

My mistake. I read AOSP, and for some reason thought stock touchwiz. I did some searching around, and it might be related to Ok Google. I found many reports saying that turning it off fixes the robotic voice. This might be a good place to start looking.

camera wont focus on objects firther away

Hello guys,
i hope it isnt a duplicate since there seem to be many different camera issues with this device. (eg the clicking focus bug some other people have)
For me, the camera focuses fine for macro images, but as soon as i get further away, it seems all blurry.
This continues n o matter which rom i used (Revenge OS Pie(focusfix enabled), AOSP Pie(focusfix enabled), cuoco92 eui 5.9, EUI 6.0.2)
I read of this bug as a nougat issue, but for me for eui based and pie roms the bug continues.
I honestly only want a rom with okayish battery backup and working camera.
any suggestions?
Thank You!
Well my friend that seems to be a hardware issue with the camera, probably the camera module for focusing has died, that's why it focuese only at certain distance. I had the same issue, tired every possible ROM or focus fix.... the only way to fix this is to buy a new camera from aliexpress or such store, and replace it. After that it works flawlessly.
