New camera improvments form Mix 3 - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi
just want to share some info about new camera improvements that will come to our Mix 2s
https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/10/...-uprgades-taking-performance-closer-to-mix-3/

Gizmo China is not a reliable source of information for anything tbh. They post what gets clicks and nothing more. Like their reference to in screen fingerprint which we know isn't real....

Its officially:
Tweet from @donovansung: Mi MIX 3 uses the same rear dual camera modules as #Mi8 and #MiMIX2S. Here are some beautiful shots from photographer 陈业伟.
Our R&D team is working hard to update these two phones ASAP with the same camera software as #MiMIX3. Stay tuned for more updates!

Great news, now someone just has to "only" build a working APK and make this work without MIUI. That would be great!

What about the super slow motion? 960fps, is that implemented for the mix2s

No it's not but night mode works.

There is new version on GCam, some say that it works slowmotion , but on mi8, i try on mix2s and doesnt work.

Good news

The super slow motion (960fps) feature is now added to the mix 2s as well
at least on xiaomi.eu

it's already in the global beta ROM but it only lets you record like 3 seconds, is it normal?

Yes I think so, that's similar to how other phones implement the feature as well

Okay lets sum things up:
So far 8.11.15 from Mix 3 we received:
-960 Slow-mo
-Fixed Libs
-Night Mode
Good so far.

Any word on the global stable version? Looking forward to the new camera features ???

Wasn't there a word about improving image/video quality in general?! I am not sure but I think I read that somewhere...

Sorry but I'm new to mi mix 2s. I am on global stable miui 10. Can I go to beta from that? And if so could some one point me in the direction for the instructions.....

LineageOS Development for OnePlus SDM845 devices.

don't you always lose image quality when switching from stock to custom rom, no matter if it's a Sony, Samsung or OnePlus?
many OnePlus users still return to stock rom because of the worse image quality on custom roms.
I've never heard anything different than that.
correct me if I'm wrong.
It's for almost every brand the same: AOSP never came completely up to stock, because of the framework and optimization from the original builders: The OEM. But since we have many good devs around, porting the Google Camera to fit for our device, at least non-pro shots will be equal, if not better than stock. You can come close with several other apps too:
• Open Camera
• Snap Camera HDR Pro (Smells a bit abandoned, to be honest.)
• A Better Camera Unlocked (Also smells abandoned, but works fine. At least for now.)
• Footej Camera Pro
• Hedge Cam 2 (With the correct settings, you will get par to better photos than with stock. Based on Open Camera.)
For normal, I'd list Manual Camera and Camera FV-5 too, but both are too old and are for sure completely abandoned.

Micky,
based on solely the image quality - would you prefer a custom rom on the op5/5t or the stock rom? and even though you probably don't own a crystal glass ball, what's your stand on this when it comes to the op6?
thx!
I was and I ever will be a user of CyanogenMod / LinageOS. At least, you should switch one time back, because of this:
https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/open-ears-forums-key-actions-update.865969/
When this fixes come out, OxygenOS should really become obsolete in terms of image quality. But spoken of this: Isn't there a nice, working Google Camera port already out for the 5/5T? I skipped the 5/5T, because OnePlus really pis... me off for reasons - another story.

Official Gcam for SD845 - Is quality improvement for OP6 mod expected?

Hey guys and girls,
just wanted to know if the gcam mod for op6 will get better when Google releases the official gcam app for the pixel 3. or will it be easier for developers to get better results for the op6 gcam mod?
will the devs of gcam mod stop their work on the present mod because it is based on the sd835 gcam app? if so then why do the devs even work on the mod now and up until the official sd845 gcam app instead of saying "there will be no gcam mod for the op6 until Google releases the official gcam app for the pixel3 (sd845). we will begin working on this project once the 845 app is available".
are the devs working on the gcam mod just because they are so kind/helpful/... that they spend lots of their free time just to get a working mod right away instead of waiting for the actual app that Google will release shortly? or will all the development into the present app help the devs once the sd845gcam.app is out?
And when did Google release the gcam app for the pixel 2 last year - together with the phone release or was the software available before the phone release?
lots of questions,
would love some clarification!
thanks so much,
v.
The whole thread belongs in the original thread. How a forum should work, so you speak to the developers directly..
1: it might
2: it might
3: they would probably stop using that base.. But keep some things in the code. (might)
4. Well... There are things you just don't know if they even will work properly or not when developing something. There are people in this world that just want to TRY make stuff better or just have fun with it. It's like saying there is no need to save people from starving because we will never succeed... And we therefore don't even care for trying..
5. Sigh... .. Peace out.
thx for answering,
I did think about posting my questions in the thread you mention. but I figured it's too much off topic. I didn't want to interrupt the actual development thread as I'm not helping the thread with useful info regarding the mod.
thanks for your reply,
v.
Well, it's good but the autofocus is slow and not accurated, sometimes got tint pic and the Portraid Mod is bugged (crashed and freeze). Other than that, the CameraAPI is not used so no full features like 4K 60fps etc. and more scalable resolution for photo camera.
This is a very important question, to the point if i keep the phone or not....

Why is camera API not used ?
On old days of OP1 they ported from Find 7 (Camera 2.67)...
Maybe from Oppo R15?

Because they need to be included by Arnova8G2 in next build.

New pixel 3 camera

Has anyone been able to get it to work?
I see Max Lee has it, but only for the 6p. And older pixel phones...

Installed but FC'ed for me as well. Guess we need to wait for ports.
Works fine on my Pixel 2.
Fc'd here.
Arnova just dropped his first port for it.
Works perfect for me so far.
Check it out on the GCam Port Hub website!
Edit - Still lots of bugs, especially with tap to focus and the integrated Google Lens implementation. Camera randomly stops working and while there is Lens Blur, there is no dedicated Portrait mode yet.
Yeah tested Arnova's port this morning. He did mention that it's just to test the new UI. Very promising though!

Mine fc'd ?
I tried his "test2" version. Seems to work pretty well. Slow Motion video doesn't seem to work at the moment.
Any news on an updated port? I've been looking since the last release and now with the Night Sight I'm definitely interested in a port for the PH-1

Just installed. Wow. G-cam was always good in the daylight. Now the low light performance is some of the best I've seen. Just need to be patient with exposure and processing time. Small price to pay. Very impressed.
Been using the camera posted to the front page and wow! Night sight is amazing. Some of the pictures you capture with it is unbelievable.
So far it is fantastic! Only thing I can't go work he slow motion video.

Send a love letter to Essential support requesting the H264 video thingy?
can someone post a few sample night shots? Looking to get this and trade my lg g7 - but if there isn't a huge difference in camera quality, i'll probably stick with the g7.
thanks in advance!
Installed latest are0zer0 magisk mod and installed front page camera. No slo motion. Don't have any AR stuff running, so no stickers.

I tried the latest version, night sight lags more than usual, I'll be waiting for next releases and try again (Mido device). Thanks.
Tested on my rooted Redmi Note 4X running Pixel Experience ROM.
Video mode doesn't work. I only get a dark screen. Other modes work fine.
Edit: slow motion and motion tracking (both auto and on options) doesn't work. Sometimes the video mode works after clearing the data but the camera, night sight and portrait stops working. It can't shoot at 1080p60fps though just 4k/1080p at 30fps. Even if you choose the 60fps option it will still be at 30fps.
Does it work with Syberia 9.0(Pie) ??
At night with flash, it does not save the photo in memory.
RN4 (Samsung sensor) with PE +

As a suggestion, as I don't know which rom are you using.. After September update (los16 by aryan, which includes latest zeelog camera HAL improvements) my cameras reduced a lot, if not all, any possibility of crashing. I tried almost 20 takes one after the other under high sunlight conditions, using latest parrot 6.3 v9, one before latest Arnova's 6.2 and even parrot V7 mods. V7 beta is, despite being uncompleted and with functions not totally implemented, practically impossible to crash it. So, I'm telling you my experience, yours may differ. My Mido uses both Samsung sensors, Omnivision and Sony may behave different.
If your ROM is not using the zeelog's tree, I would suggest you to try any Gcam v7 and see what you can achieve.
Cheers!
Excuse me. I use PE plus. 9.0
Both sensor are Samsung.
When I turn on the flash it is not working
Please, update.
Regards
Definitively the most stable gcam for the Samsung sensor, working perfectly with the latest Havoc OS pie, no crashes at all
does it have pink tint in night vision with back camera?
i have samsung sensor in front and sony sensor in the back. what should i search for fix it?

I got the update to android Q yesterday. This is full review for that update.
1. Performance: Performance is the same and in some cases Android Q is a bit faster and better.
2. Battery: The Screen on time is almost the same for me(only few minutes worse)
3. Main Camera: The quality is the same on Stock app. Haven't tested GCam
4. Front Camera: The quality is a bit worse and yellow on Stock app. Haven't tested GCam
5. Storage: I had the same free space on Q as i had on P
6. Gaming: Same performance and a bit better FPS on some games.
7. Boot-up Time: Almost if not the same as Pie
8. App Launching Time: Quite faster in some cases.
---------------------------------MIUI PROBLEMS AFTER UPDATE--------------------------------------
I noticed small lags and studders when opening the recents menu and when i opened a folder
General Performance is fine but the poor front camera performance and the small lags
annoy me a lot. I will most probably flash LineageOS 17.1 Android Q from "coderz" to resolve
all of the issues i encountered on MIUI. I will inform you if i notice something else.:good::laugh:
Camera quality is lower than before
Thank You for this short review. I've just got the update notification and now I'm not going to install it. I'll wait some time to see others users comments about it.
Currently iam having miui global 11.0.8.When will i receive the new update..
I installed the update. Results:
Camera quality is the same. I didn't experienced that yellowish on front so the front camera I have the same quality as before. Performance is little bit higher. More smooth system responses. I consider this update as great. No bugs I noticed
No notice no difference in quality of photos.
Applying to both, front and back
