MI 5s camera mods [Updated: 1st Feb 2018] - Xiaomi Mi 5s Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hi all..
This is a fix for the broken implementation of camera 2 API on our device.
This will allow us to finally shoot up to 32 sec raw image in camera 2 API and also enables up to 100k ISO...
Much love and respect to @defcomg for fixing this for us, he is an amazing dev and if you would like to donate to him you can hit this link!
NOTE:
This mod will probably only work on Lineage and 7.1.1+ ROMs. I've tested it on latest RR (16 June) and it works.
Don't flash on MIUI ROMs, I haven't and probably won't test it, but feel free if you are brave :laugh:
Make a backup (TWRP). Or if anything goes wrong just reflash ROM, it'll fix your problem.
I take no responsibility for brick or boot-loop...
LINK:
V1 - Initial [LOS/RR etc..]
V1 - Test (I need someone to tell me if this works) [Miui N ROMs]
V2 - Nightmode profiles [11 December]
V3 - Oreo Libs [1st Feb]
For future versions I would like to try to add longer exposure times as well as fix pixel binning for better low light shots!
Edit:
16 June: There is a delay when shooting long exposure, for example when selecting 32 sec, the shutter button will be pressed for like 32sec x 2 = +-64 secs, don't know why but anyways it only shoots for first 32 seconds, so just be aware of that..
19 June: Fixed Miui N test lib link
11 Aug: Nightmode coming soon, this will allow longer shutter speeds, essentially up to about 5 mins
Also all apps should be able to take advantage of this.
11 Dec:
Added libmm shutter extension and pixel binning.. The respective number (3, 9, max [14]) multiplies the shutter by that amount, meaning if you have an app that normally can only capture up to 1/17 shutter, and use 3x lib it will now use 3/17 shutter (almost 0.2 sec), this affects all video and photo apps, you can restore it by replacing original file..
Oreo has a busted HAL so shutter on manual only hits about 4 sec without breaking, using max libmm mod you can get about 1 min shutter I think, in nougat using fixed cam 2 libs, you can get about 7 min shutter time.
Pixel binning is somewhat working, it has a dark preview, and I don't know why, but when you shoot in raw, you will see the file is much brighter with less noise, but at lower res.
Place the file in /system/vendor/lib then reboot the device
NOTE: The HAL fix from above (V1) will not work on Oreo since it's using a new HAL, so don't use that, if you don't know or are unsure..
1st Feb 2018: Patched Oreo libs to allow long exposure. Added libmm multiplication hacks.
Gonna be away till like mid Jan, so might not be able to answer questions..

Good work ?

Can the default snap camera take advantage of this api2 or another camera app has to be used?

Could he fix the Google camera force close when change to front camera, thanks

With regards to slow motion, 120 FPS should be working on FreeDcam

I'm on miui 7.6.15 xiaomi.eu build(android n)....ive flashed your patch via twrp....and really nothing happened....camera still working like before....no new mods in there....like its really for aosp...can confirm that its dont break your camera in miui...but also its doing nothing in miui....in my opinion

You don't happen to have samples of stock camera vs freedcam?

I don't use stock camera, I use FreeDcam raw mode, and when I shoot jpeg, I shoot with denoise off. So with stock you will see less noise in images, but freeDcam will have much more details

Check the OP, all this mod does is enable 32 sec shutter on Cam2 api and adds ISO 100k. It doesn't add quality/features or mods to the camera..

FreeDcam app specially for Mi 5s

Is it possible to enable iso lower than 100? Or maybe it's pointless because it's achieved by software, and the quality will be worse than 100? So can we conclude that lineage (or some other) roms are better than MIUI? I'm thinking moving to these roms.
By the way, it seems that the link on the first post was incorrect (miui one), the later ones are working though.
---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 PM ----------
I'm on miui 7.6.15 xiaomi.eu , got upto 8714 iso with snap camera. Stock remains 3200. Still 16 bit raw Still 1/3 s shutter with 3rd party camera apps, though I heard someone already has shutter longer than 1s with 3rd apps. I don't remember have flashed any other patches especially related to cameras
With los, Lightroom could have shutter 1s, but iso up to 100k, I don't know if it really works, as it's white paper after 10k anyway.

isnt it possible to use Pixel libs?

[CAMERA MOD(S)] Tadi's libhacks (Pixel's chromatix exposures, new camera resolutions)

The first:
I really like to thank @shaneel1491 for introducing me to @defcomg and for making some mods by himself :>
At the starting point of this thread, I present you ported autoexposure tables from the Pixel. It won't likely positevely or negatively affect quality of your videos and photos, but it should certainly fix the exposure bugs (inconsistent framerate in Camera 1 API 120 fps mode and exposure flashes on Camera2 API apps, such as Google Camera).
The libs are few, but that's because they are the only chromatix autoexposure libs on Pixel. I plan to release BB KeyOne/Nokia/XZ1 versions likely.
Why the Liteon ones only? If you have such a module as Semco, then inform me here and I may work on it too.
Won't my device go boom? Not likely. I mean, I don't want to help fixing placebo bricks Just reflash your current ROM, that's it.
From what version those libs are? 7.9.7 (xiaomi.eu). If something big gets changed or something will start to work bad, then I likely will fix it one day.
How to even use them? ??? Use your root file manager and replace the current ones with mine in /system/vendor/lib/. Set 0644/rwrr permissions for each file. And better backup the original ones, as I won't download a system dump to send you those ;_;
So it means that they are not flashable? Exactly! I had no time for this currently :>
The current state for capricorn_exposure_7_9_7_pixelised.zip:
- everything works
- Camera2 API apps now go up to ISO 8714 in auto, instead of 6400 (the longest auto exposure time stays the same - 1/17s)
- Snapdragon Camera/MIUI Camera/Snap (LOS default) Camera/Moto Camera - HFR/HSR120 works properly, the framerate does not fluctuate
The current state for caprimods_310817_HFR120prof_all.zip:
- this pack was done for lulz/test
- it forces 1/120s exposure time as the max of every auto mode
- expect very high noise in lowlight
The current state for orig_7_9_7_vendorlibs.zip:
- just the fresh stock libs
- useful, if you are an anti-backup person :~D
The current state for libmmcamera2_mct_4056stall.zip: NEW (15.11.17)
- adds 4056x3040 (full possible res) and 4048x3036 (full possible ideal 4:3) photo resolutions
- wider FOV (field of view) is visible
- does not replace the standard 4000x3000
- Snapdragon Camera and Snap (Lineage-default) may not detect it, needs testing (Qualcomm aimed at their direct resolutions only)
- MIUI camera detects instantly
- some apps may need to be data-cleared to detect
The current state for libmmcamera2_mct_4048and4032img.zip:
- adds 4048x3036 and 4032x2268 photo resolutions
- wider FOV (field of view) is visible
- does not replace the standard 4000x3000 and 3840x2160
- Snapdragon Camera and Snap (Lineage-default) may not detect it, needs testing (Qualcomm aimed at their direct resolutions only)
- MIUI camera detects instantly

Works on everything, but it may be incompatible somehow with some very very old libs, but I think LOS is using some that are not more than month old.
Anyway, I'll realease a max resolution mod. As the default photo input is 4000x3000, video input is 3840x2160, while we can get 4048x3036 and 4032x2268.
Very cool. Could you add stabilization to 4k video?

Google Camera Portrait Mode for (mido) tested ✔️

Google camera portrait mode finally working on Redmi Note 4 .
Credits goes to appropriate guys who ported it earlier
I just tested and cooked the whole do to list to enable portrait mode on our Redmi note 4 (mido)
Any Nougat or Oreo rom ( miui 9 tested )
(If you're messing with miui , don't forget to flash / keep "lazyflasher zip handy to prevent bootloop)
Personally using ( Pixel Experience Rom 8.1)
Link to the my block post aka guide (just a click away)

-slowmo not working
-camera crashing sometimes (reminds "ab itna toh sehna pdega")
Way too fast!
what about other modes?
is slo mo working?
Click here to get access all the GCam ports and try your luck. Till date. SlowMo is not working for Mido.
good morning
It crashes in some roms in bright daylight...and i noticed if u click many pictures quickly in bright daylight in custom roms ..its bound to crash...and indoors if too many clicks are made frequently, the colour of the pics come greenish...? But the cam app least crashes in miui...so if you want the best experience and be sure about no crashes then use it in miui...

Didn't noticed any greenish tint in any of photos , but yes sometimes the app crashes ,
Solution : force close app (either set this action as long press back button)
And open any other camera app .
Then reopen google camera ..
Reason of crash (synchronisation of hdr and image comparison algorithm mess up)
Sometimes re opening doesn't fix the problem of crashing as
Camera try to resume the comparison of frames taken previously .. then you have to wait till the camera service declare timeout .)
Do all the google camera mod by different developers provide the same quality of picture?
HEY !
I also have tested it.
On MIUI 9 Global Stable 7.0 Nougat
Two Problems -
1) Portrait shots just work on Human Subjects that too with an accuracy of 90% . You need to enable Lens Blur in the settings for other objects and get an average looking portrait.
2) Slow Motion crashes the app.
Rest features are just amazing. The camera performance has increased by many folds.
90% accuracy is enough for something shipping with a single rear camera ?..
And yes it work only when face detection is triggered.
Though the shutter speed is fantastic when switched to portrait mode ?
Does it still need Omnivision sensor pink tint fix flashed ?
No different zip needed to flash with my redmi note 4 !! (Redmi note 4x)

Let's get something out of the way, MIUI stock camera does not have better image quality than GCam, nor it ever will (at least on this device).
HDR+ on your GCam either didn't work, or you didn't set it up properly, because there are a few settings which have to be changed.

HDR+ worked on my device but it took a lot of time. After clicking the picture took arnd hlf a second at first, and then again a few seconds to process the HDR+.also during videos, there was a lot of issue in exposure and it didn't had time lapse too.Also the selfies taken by miui camera were better as compared to Gcam(i think thats coz it recognises it only as 5mp)
Portrait mode only worked with humans unlike miui camera which worked with anything

HDR+ worked on my device but it took a lot of time. After clicking the picture took arnd hlf a second at first, and then again a few seconds to process the HDR+.also during videos, there was a lot of issue in exposure and it didn't had time lapse too.Also the selfies taken by miui camera were better as compared to Gcam(i think thats coz it recognises it only as 5mp)
Portrait mode only worked with humans unlike miui camera which worked with anything

Well first of all, my reply was about picture quality of HDR+ vs MIUI HDR(On/Off/Auto) or HHT you name it. In that regard there is no point comparing the two, as computational photography prowess of Google Camera is just ahead in every way.
And as for the other, I don't remember whose GCam I used that had working portrait mode on objects, but it really did work, try out different versions. Even though it's just 5mp, the processing is better, you must have had a malfunctioning app. Also no issues with video exposure here (just missing the 60fps) and the HDR+ processing was a bit slow only in low light).
I am using BSG mod right now, specifically MGC_5.2.022_FINAL_1.0.apk and here are my settings. You can try out Arnova's v7.9.9 I used that one too.

Full pro mode for camera!!

IT'S JUST A GOOD USE OF MOST USED CAMERA2 API MOD...
Hello guys,I just wanna share my idea of getting full pro mode on whyred as I read a few post demanding this thing,so at starting I assume that u guys have camera2 API in u'r pockets then u need to install OnePlus camera app ,i'm just dropping link for u:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/oneplus-ltd/oneplus-camera/oneplus-camera-2-10-5-release/
See, don't expect much from this app rather than pro mode working fine.
Below I am providing pics from miui camera and OnePlus camera app with max shutter speed of both in dark.
You will get max shutter limit of 30s which in miui camera is limited to 1/4s only along with all manual mods in this.
And if u know this please don't make any fun here..!!

Sorry to be the one with the obvious answer you can't have 30 sec shutter speed on any camera irrespective of what it shows in the camera app it's a driver limitation.

But still it captures way better images at that as compared to miui's camera manual mode,so I used to share it with others.
Maybe it takes better photos... but, your title is misleading.
...And, there is a thread for Shutter speed limit and, I think, someone has point out for a similar app, that the problem, no matter what the app says it does, is the library.
If we don't modify/alter/change the library, no full PRO mode for RN5 and it's simbling RN5 AI Dual.
So, I suggest, it's time for you to go and check the thread.
Myself is going to do just that, because I have more than a few days to check and, who knows, hopefully someone has already solve the issue!!!
This app takes much better photos, but the shutter speed is still capped at 0.7sec. You would need to change libmmcam[sensorpackage].so in /vendor/lib and vendor/lib64
I believe there's already a modified library file for Global variant.

[Share] Stable gcams v6.2.030 with tips

Hi guys,
Here I'm sharing the most stable gcams after testing the new releases, which works in our mido (it depends on the sensor your phone is shipped with). All credit goes to the respective devs.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam-6.2.030_Arnova8G2_Urnyx05-v1.6.apk
Or
Try this from telegram channel(no external link available). It's working well and currently i'm on it.
https://t.me/rn4photography/107355
Everything works including rear portrait, night sight, time lapse but except slow motion as usual. If you want slow motion, use the attached oneplus cam, install as normal apk, go to settings give all permission & open, it should work.
P.S. - I tried only on pie roms.
Lag & fc fix:-
Use per app profile in kernel manager (fk kernel manager recommended) & create a profile with cpu & gpu governors in performance setting, save & apply for gcam app. Remember the more option you switch on it needs more ram & processing of pics takes more time, toggle only the options that are worth in settings.
I haven't faced any green tint issue, it depends on the sensor your phone has, if you face any, try this method or switch to some other builds.
Green fix in front camera:-
Go to settings
Enable hdr+ controls
Switch to front camera
Turn off hdr+ mode
Done.
Versions of 6.2.030 come to an end. Devs started working on 6.3
Hit thanks if it helped.

Hi guys,
Here's the working version of latest gcam with no lag or fc (at least i haven't faced). I tried lot of latest version gcams but only this one worked nice & smooth for me, so i thought of sharing it along with the settings i use. All credit goes to the respective devs.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/MGC_6.2.030_B-S-G-based_v.0.2_TlnNeun.apk
Everything works including rear portrait, night sight, time lapse but except slow motion as usual. I use oneplus camera in side for slow motion, working like charm. Lemme know if you need that apk.
P.S. I tried only on pie roms. I recommend not to use any magisk module related to cam like fps fix, cam booster, etc (except camera2api enabler).
Lag fix:-
Use per app profile in kernel manager (fk kernel manager recommended) & create a profile with cpu & gpu governors in performance setting, save & apply for gcam app.
Attached are my settings(mostly default except few) & w/wo night sight. You can try various libs as well, need to be connected to internet to download those inside the app, i use google stock libs here, you can experiment with others.

Did you connect to internet, if you're using any firewall give access to camera app, recently they added this libpatcher to reduce app size & it should work, idk why. I just try all the general builds in the official port site & sharing here the ones which works best for our mido.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/MGC_6.2.030_DCIP3Version_Bulkin043_V8.2.apk
Recently i tried this, it has lens blur as well and working but sometimes fc occurs, if you're ok with that u can try this one. Attached is the libs selection screen.

Have you tried the lag fix mentioned in the post? Because gcam needs lot of ram to process pics. You can try other three builds i shared here and lemme know which one works for you.
Fyi - I use descendant pie rom.

Yes i mentioned already fc's happen in these builds with lens blur & sometimes while processing night mode. If you really need lens blur then wait for future builds, for stability use the first one (almost no fc's like i said)?
Edit:-
Try the second one in the my first post, added after testing but no photobooth, all are working(ofc except slow motion) and i haven't faced any fc's so far. Try for yourself n lemme know.

Try the second one, that's telegram link. I'm currently on that and it works well.
Hello everyone, I recently installed AOSP Extended(Android P)on my Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon with Samsung Sensor but I'm having trouble with GCAM. I tried the the GCAM build by Urnyx05 mentioned at the first post of this thread as well as many other builds by Arnova8G2 but although somehow stable they still face some issues. I have trouble with video capture, slow motion, taking HDR photos when zooming in, etc.
Which GCAM from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/ would you recommend for me to install that is stable and almost all functions working for Samsung sensor (and if possible is somewhat a recent version)??
Also, is there any gcam build that supports manual shutter?
I believe I found a perfect GCAM 6.2.30 for RN4X
