[APP] [PORT] MIUI Camera for Mi5 [REQUEST] [POLL] - Xiaomi Mi 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods

I have used many ROMs based on Lineage OS here.
Testing camera performance especially front camera for selfie.
MIUI camera delivers exceptionally amazing selfies.​
I have tested Open Camera on MIUI and the selfie quality went bad, selfies became dull as same as they are in Lineage cameras.​
This means the App is the key to better selfies.
If its possible to Port that app, Many users on internet willing to donate for the same.
Also this will improve overall device feel and experience on LineageOS.​
If this thread becomes capable to attract at least one developer who shows interest in this we will be lucky.
Participate with your ideas and try to attract Developers here.​If you are willing to Donate for this project kindly do mention.​

I've seen this happen on every Xiaomi phone I've owned. On all of them there's​ a thread of people really wanting a port of the MIUI camera, but on none of them is it possible. The MIUI camera is part of the MIUI framework and won't work without it. So unless someone makes a Magisk module of the MIUI framework that plays nicely with AOSP and ports the camera it won't be possible

Guys please participate in this thread.
Participation is only key to get Dev attention. ​

I just found this MIUI5 port that works on Marshmallow (I don't know if works in Nougat): (Sharing)(APP) MIUICamera App
Maybe this could help to find a way to port the newer versions.

Not useful, people who used it are saying it's working as a normal camera app only.
And I tried, not working in my phone.

I think that is just the app, it doesn't include the low level firmware optimisations. It doesn't work on the MI5,and it's based on MIUI5 which is 4years old. The fact that we haven't made progress post that is testiment to how difficult it is to port the camera firmware. Atm the only solution is dual bootiing, and using a MIUI based ROM if you go out to take pictures (like on a holiday). It's ****ty, but it's what we're stuck with. Google Camera works OK on Lineage for quick snaps anyway.

Wait for next update of the snap camera. I am sure it will rock

I have realized that MIUI has really developed its camera app over the time, even if some other camera app are launched. They will not catchup with this app. Hence if we have a scope to use this existing piece of work we must port it rather than focusing on other means.
I just hope some developer has seen this thread and considering to take on this project.

will a camera port be ever available?

I really like the MIUI camera because the focus peaking option, who else ?

guys I have talked to developers, they are saying that it's not possible to port this camera.
And if it was possible, someone in XDA community would have already ported it like these is Google camera.
So if you want great photos, be on MIUI.

Guys, Sad news is Developers have denied to make any such port.
They say MIUI camera has something to do with Miui framework also this camera is Closed Source.
Sadly in summary If you want to use your phone for camera stay on MIUI only.

Use raw shooting for max quality for both AOSP and MIUI. As it pulls raw data without any touch you can get superrior quality compared to MIUI camera app.

I know that mostly Custom ROMs have Snapdragon camera, I was saying that mabye I'll try to use Camera FV-5 on some custom to see if there will be manual focus at least (I don't think there will be focus peaking tho). In MIUI installing FV-5 there's not even manual focus, instead on MIUI camera app there's manual focus and focus peaking too.

After Leaving MIUI 8 and choosing CM13 on my mi4i , i just felt miui camera app is awesome. A d after 2 weeks trying every 3rd party camera app, luckily i found a good alternative to this, and that is OPPO camera mod, you can find oppo camera app searching in threads. That works great but i have downloaded a oppo camera version that looks same as R7 camera app. You can try that searching in forums.

Probably I tried some Oppo camera with my Mi4, but I can't remember well.
I'll definitely give it a try, anyway I guess there will not be focus peaking feature.

Actually, Oppo camera app have more features than miui camera app, like HDR, HD pic (more sturations for cropping), slow shutter (lightning painting), Gif, doubke exposure etc etc... All you need is to download 2 apks, 1 for app 1 for plugins.. thats it. I HAVE UPLOADED 2 CAMERA APP INTERFACE SCREEN SHOTS. THATS Mi4i. CM13

If you enable camera2 api, all apps that support it will work. Otherwise, only MIUI camera has it (proprietary api?).

Oneplus Camera (from OP6T) [v3.0.16]

Oneplus Camera App from Oneplus 6T.
Disclaimer - I'm just merely sharing. APKs I post mostly I extract from OOS roms of Oneplus Devices. I have nothing to do with the updates and development of the apks.
Latest (v3.016) - Check Post #3 for links.
**Please do read Post #3 fully before asking any questions**
Anyone knows how to enable promode? there's promode on the oneplus 5
Oneplus Camera (3.0.16) -
Camera [from OP6T OB4] - https://goo.gl/JK4Rg1 (3.0.16)
Noted Changes - APKs from latest Beta of OP6T.
Regarding HDR :-
Guys, I tested almost all the old apks to find ones that have hdr working and post'em here. But it seems like this isn't an apk issue. Because all the old apks I tried had the same hdr always off issue. I think this has to do with our Roms. (I use AEX5.5 and have been on AEX from nougat days.)
I even tried editing the camera apk to find if it calls any specific package for hdr function that i can import from OOS dumps. Doesn't seems so.
If anyone using last builds of nougat roms or very early builds of Oreo, please try the latest apks and let us know if hdr works.
Common Note :-
I don't develop this app, just sharing with you guys. So I can help you with only basic solutions and cannot do app level corrections.
Since this camera app is developed with only the oneplus devices in mind, many features might not work on other devices. Some of these features that work on 5T don't even work on 3T. No one can help it. All we can do is wish for an update to solve the issues. I too am wondering why the HDR mode suddenly vanished in the latest versions but maybe updates will solve it.
There will be limitations in Pro mode like shutter speed not changing beyond a point and all. This is due to the fact that our device has no Level_3 hardware support of Camera2Api. And also there are physical limitations due to our Camera sensor being a less capable one than oneplus 3/3t 5/5t cameras. So don't expect a solution to such limitations in updates.
I don't use OP gallery app. Don't ask me any questions regarding that app. If asked, the only solution I can give is, better move to Quickpic app.
My actual main camera app (for now) is Gcam Mod by arnova. I use OP camera rarely for the Pro mode & Video.
Any other working apps from Oxygen OS you guys would like me to post here along with the camera app please let me know. I download the whole roms for just 2 apks and then delete the roms. I have no trouble posting a couple more apks alongside the camera and gallery. Again, i can only extract and share the apps, cannot make them work with our device.
Cheerios :good:
This camera is from oneplus 5 or oneplus 3 ?

Guys, Check out the new updated Oneplus Camera. It's HDR mode is superfast and faster than all other Camera apps. No Bugs whatsoever (running of AEX4.6). HDR Quality if better than Moto Cam app while General Image and Video Clarity is the same.
Disclaimer - I'm just merely sharing. APK uploaded here is from Apkmirror.

Better Auto-focusing
A Bit better HDR
Minor Improvements in Video Colors (depends on lighting, i tried in same lighting as I tested the previous version)
UI Improvements
This version is extracted from Oreo version of OOS so will be stable on our Oreo Roms too. All these differences from previous version noted on AEX4.6 Nougat. Any Oreo users please do post the differences you observe in your Rom(s) with this version.

Resolution is adjusted when you change the Aspect Ratio on top. Jpeg Quality is default and I guess at 85%. That is not changeable. Oneplus Camera app doesn't have the most controls but is the best HDR (fast but good) and also the most stable amongst all other phones's camera app i tested. Also if you switch to AEX5.0 you get the Pro mode from OP3/3T/5/5T working on our phone. If you want maximum controls try Snapcamera.

best camera app for Pie

Good afternoon fellas !
I'm writing to you in order to know which camera app you are using right now since I tried last port from Pixel 3 google camera with no results. Is there any port available to use bokeh or HDR+ in our SD801 powered devices?
I'm looking forward for a better camera than the Lineage OS stock one, which is the same since Lollypop days.
Kind regards.
as far as i know, the devs dont have the code for the camera api2 needed for these apps from Samsung. so we are stuck with mediocre camera in non-tw versions. so it doesnt matter what you try, as long as your ROM does not have the api2 support coded in, the app will not make full use of the api features.

Good afternoon! A nice camera is the only grail on S5, given that we are already blessed to have so many nice ROMs.
I recommend Google camera 3.1 from apkmirror to have hdr+
Or my A2 camera mod if you want a modern UI with interesting features
Also the lineage camera is being worked on by our maintainer so it should get even better soon

Extract camera app from Xiaomi.eu ROM as an independent, standalone camera app?

Hi, is it possible to extract the camera app that comes with the Xiaomi.eu ROM to install and run as an independent, standalone app without having to unlock the boot loader, root, magisk, etc.?!?
The xiaomi.eu ROM camera app comes with a lot of better features and in my opinion it produces better pictures than the camera app that comes with the official Xiaomi MIUI 10.2.26.0 PFAEUXM ROM.
Thanks!
Best regards,
Lars

Have you tried using anx camera (google it and download. It is flashed by magisk and replaces the system camera, unless you disable or uninstall the module, at which case you revert back to the ststme camera. Better backup in twrp before just in case something goes wrong. I tried it in eu miui and it worked OK)
I'm just curious what features you like better
I prefer the stock camera app to that on the eu rom(though I'm running the dev build)

I like the additional HDR modes (live and pro) as well as the dynamic pictures (aka live photos, I missed them since I had to forsake my Windows Mobile Lumia 950XL). Also, when comparing (pixel peeping) photos I prefer the ones coming out of the xiaomi.eu ROM's camera app. I think they just may have adjusted the JPG compression rate, but IMHO the xiaomi.eu ROM's camera produces pictures with more details, I've also compared them with pictures shot on a Mi 9 running the latest official global stable.

I would love to get a non magisk camera for custom ROMs that can use all the lenses.
As far as I've seen, nothing on the play store can do it. There doesn't seem to be a standard even though practically all phones are adding multiple lenses.

gcam

hey, can any brilliant developer create a super stable video for gcam like on stock camera app? i really liked that but its not possible with a custom rom or maybe there is, so can anyone do it?

Go to the Google camera ports web page and try these 3:
Xcam 6.2 beta (which version depends on your Android version) - has all features basically
Urnyx 7.2 v1.4 - same as above however it is Google cam 7 (unfortunately cannot use xmls to configure settings)
Parrot 7 V12 - unlike the 2 above, does not allow for switching to ultrawide or telephoto, however is a great cam with xmls, lots of config options in settings and is also Google cam 7
the video is not at all stable compared to stock camera

What mod are you using? Gcam has lots of mods and tweaks, I'm using Gcam 7.2 by Parrot mod and don't face any issues.
Neither version of Gcam has video stabilization like stock cam...period!
I agree at some point but to compare stock Mi9t camera 1080p/30fps/h265 vs Gcam 7.2 1080p/30fps/h265 the quality is much better on Gcam when you're walking or hiking fast the video stabilization is not that much progressive or smoother on stock camera I'd say max 5% or 10% more accurate and it's hardly noticeable but the quality drops during the video I can clearly see the image distortion and noise.
In addition Gcam is much more configurable and better quality because it is being developed constantly and Xiaomi stock camera software is not something to judge or the company is aimed for but rather quality and production of smartphones and various equipment.
