[PORT] Huawei P20 Camera (EMUI 8.1)

Hello ! This is a port from the Huawei P20 camera, based on EMUI 8.1.
Additional fixes:
Gallery preview fixed
Portrait mode photo are now saving
What is not working:
Nothing ! If you got any issues you can report it here.
Informations:
This port should work on Huawei P20, P20 Pro under Treble roms, but also on other devices..
Just flash the zip file in TWRP, and enjoy !
If you are under Treble ROM, I'd recommand you using "Google Photos", it's faster than stock gallery app.
I wanna thank @flex1911 for his help on this port. Without him it wouldn't be possible.

quick question - is there any difference between the P20 and P20 Pro camera apps? Don't really see what they could change, so don't know if it's worth to flash on a stock P20.

This is a port from P20, not P20 Pro.
There's no reason to flash this on stock P20.
It's useful for Treble roms only.

Does Raw work for anyone with a p20 pro? I'm on lineage and it crashes the app.
Everything else works great and I finally have pro mode monochrome back and the "color" options in the normal photo/video mode.

RAW mode is working well on my P20 (Phh-treble 8.1), can you give me the logs please ?

Here you go, started recording the log right before opening the camera and eventually I switched to raw and it blacks out the viewfinder. You can still switch modes for a little bit but eventually the camera app just stops responding.

Going to take a look. Thanks for the log, it will be very helpful.

I installed it on my P10, using DotOs, and I can say that it works perfectly! :laugh: :good: this is a great port, everything working, even raw and gallery.
Thank you so much for this port bro.

I can confirm that raw mode in p20 pro freezes the camera app. I'm running latest LOS.

Hey, thanks for the good work.
I'm trying it out on a P20 Pro running the Pixel Experience Treble Rom, and am I doing something wrong or does the gallery not work? it keeps saying that I need to add a gallery to the work profile or something along the lines of that

Doesn't work for me either on lineage 15.1. This is still my favorite camera app despite the gallery issue and raw not working on lineage
Since you are on pixel experience with a p20 pro, does raw work with this camera? I'm curious if it's a rom issue or app issue. Also, how's the rom? Anything not work?

Raw freezes the camera app so I guess that's a No.
I've tried Lineage 15.1 and Pixel Experience together with Havoc and the rest for the P20 Pro. Imho, Pixel Experience is my go to.
Lineage is great, but there's just that little bit of lack of responsiveness that I can feel in the UI that bugs me. Another breaker for me was not being able to use it in dual sim mode. It kept dropping my signals left and right, making it super irritating when I was travelling and using two sims at the same time.
Pixel Experience is incredibly smooth and fluid, more so than Lineage (reminds me of my U11+, albeit not quite there), though there are some bugs but not breaking.
VoLTE doesn't work, though I guess that's pretty much all AOSP ROMs, no fast charging with the Huawei Supercharger, and the signal bars are shown as half all the time for some reason, though I don't think this affected my overall usage at all.
Other than that, it's perfect.

I’ll have to give it a try. 8.1 or 9.0? Just erecovery to stock, wipe system and flash?

8.1, the last time I tried 9.0 it bootlooped, not too sure why but I haven't tried 9.0 ever since.
I flashed mine using TWRP, but you could use fastboot as well if you wanted to.

Not working
I'm using pixel experience rom and it does not even open

Is it possible to make a magisk module of this port?
Any chance to run this port on miui stock roms?

The download is trashed? Was hoping this could work on the OnePlus 7 pro

Can someone Update the link please? This was the only version that worked for me.

I would also like to request a new download link. Please and thanks!

@Androlark bro can you re-upload the file, the current link is down, thank u

*Update*
The rom has a battery drain issue, my pocophone barely survives 4 hours with this rom.
(Usually it lasts 10 hours+)

This trick is known. Use the pixelify module and you have unlimited upload on stock

Wrong! I tried flashing it and it says that it has unlimited storage, then asks if I want original quality on my drive storage or high quality

I had similar deal when i got lg g4 unlimited or many gb like 100 gb i dont remember, for 2 years. And when that pass you end up with blocked accaunt.
It is buy space or revert all photos from original quality to gain space...
Pocophone main camera is 12MP and google hi quality is 16MP, so i dont see the point?

GCam Lens Blur and Photo Sphere issues

Hello,
Recently received my Mix 2S and liking it a lot so far. My only issue so far is that in Google Camera from any modder on any AOSP ROM, the lens blur and photo sphere modes are bugged. They do output images, but the resultant image is far too overexposed.

Does anybody else have the same issue? Currently on AOSiP 20190915, Canting v2.4, Magisk 19.3 with the only camera related module being Luffity's ANXCam.

Other Camera apps?
Did you give a try to other camera apps such as (the free & open-source software) Open Camera (https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/)? It has recently supported panorama mode.

I did give open camera's panorama a shot as per your recommendation, but the image from that is also similarly overexposed. what's even more strange is that gcam's dedicated panorama mode (not the one in photo sphere mode) does not have such an issue. also, I'd rather have one camera app that does most things properly, rather than having a multitude of camera apps to fix what is broken on others (having anxcam do stabilised video is the only compromise I'm willing to make). furthermore, open camera doesn't have a wide angle option like on gcam.

It is true that using only one camera app is preferable, but comparison with different apps could be used to determine where the problem originates. If another app does not have the same issue, it could be a problem of the algorithm in certain apps. A sidenote: it could happen that proprietary binaries do not appear in the custom ROMs due to various reasons.

well since open camera has a similar bug I guess it's a vendor issue then. but now I am just curious as to whether other people are getting similar results as me when they use the lens blur and photo sphere modes in gcam.

update: after flashing global miui 11.0.4.0 (gcam needs google services to work apparently), issues have been resolved and now works properly on aosp roms. i think it was due to the pixel3rom i flashed prior to other aosp roms, which seems to utilise a different vendor that overwrote the stock camera lib but was subsequently not overwritten by the vendors of other aosp roms.

Hi, sorry for bumping but I'm facing the same issue for Poco F1.
Are you using Android 10 or 9? AFAIK, that fw is for 10 but I don't want to update to 10 yet. Is it compatible with 9?

at the time 11.0.4.0 was pie. not sure about pocophone. the issue was only present on certain aosp pie roms, now that I'm using 10 I've not run into this problem. perhaps u can try flashing back to stock miui and trying out a few pie roms and see which rom+vendor combo works best for u.

Android 11 MIUI 12 Full screen gestures problem

Does anyone else have an issue on 12.2.4.0 where you cannot use another launcher with the system gestures? It's really frustrating I hate the system launcher and I don't like the navigation bar either and I don't know how to make the full screen gestures work with lawnchair launcher or even nova
If anyone knows any workarounds or fixes can you please let me know

hi
i have same prob with miui 12.2.2 version and none of the gestures apps working.

I have the version 12.5 xiaomi.eu and the gestures with external launchers do not work either. I think it's an Android 11 issue that launchers developers need to fix.

try to use "fluid n.g." app for gestures!
you can try " gesture-control pro" app too.
btw. to work with nova (6/7) you have to set poco as the system launcher!
Please enable poco gestures after installing gesture app.
If poco is not running as the system launcher, you will loose taskmanager function!! (recent app)
Be sure, that developer option "miu optimizing" is set to on!
Otherwise you will get a lot of problem's too.
tip:
it can be helpful to set nova and setup icon to be used at the lower side of home screen. So you will be able to switch fast to nova if it necessary.

Hey, man,
This actually worked! Thank you - for the time being it is a decent solution.
Just note that fluid ng must be kept running in the background - the moment you kill it from Recents, gestires are gone.

Yes, you have to protect it against killing by the system!
1.) Battery optimization for this app set to "off"
2.) Recent task list -> Fluid N.G."locked"
3.) App setup for Fluid N.G. " running in backround "
4.) app energy management " no limits"
5.) Autostart for this app " on"
It's a little bit tricky for xiaomi miui

I would to report this issue exist maybe in all xiaomi miui 12 phones. 139 days ago reported mi 10 in reddit. Now I will report I am using latest Poco F3 and this issue still exist. Seems xiaomi never bothered to fix the issue.

Unfortunately the app I tested I would not recommend it can suddenly stop working I was stucked. Lucky I didn't buy it yet. Xiaomi is we can hope more ppl complains to them. I wish 3rd party apps would have worked.

This is so mad. I had this problem on my Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite 5G after the upgrade to Android 11 and now on my brand new Poco F3 this problem still persists.
That's just their way to force users to use their own launcher...
Okay Xiaomi as you wish ... I will flash a custom rom when they are available for the F3.

Question The official Lineage os with Gapps on the 7 pro is the perfect phone!

It takes whatever is wrong with the stock and throws it out the window. And the scrolling is also buttery smooth on web browsing especially if you install chrome as a third party app. You can add as much Google apps as you want. And have the best experience and for a sound mod I use is James dps magisk with the eq cranked all the way up with the convolver on the very wide setting. It's an amazing experience.
If you go to lineage os website you can download the firmware for lineage os but you have to use the jan beta build recovery to install.

Do you get the superior call screening that only Pixels get when using Lineage?
It is this feature alone that makes me stay with a Pixel as it is. If this is lost then it's no better than any other phone available today.

i seem to have better connection service yes. stock gives me issues when calling people like the phone disconnects. no issues so far.

I think @jaseman is referring to the call SCREENING, not quality (IE the ability to block useless calls). I never installed Lineage on any of my decices and i also wonder myself if you do keep all the "exclusive" features this device has.
For exemple, let's consider the camera app. @UltimateGamer83 can you confirm you have the SAME camera with all Pixel features activated ?

Call screening and Google camera working 100% I've been on lineage since the first build. Super solid

LOS was always better in battery life then Stock roms. Used it on most OP devices I had. Pretty sure on Cheetah is the same.

Better than stock. Might stick with lineage os for now on and keep my phone heavily modded.

I have ran this software since November of last year and I can honestly say that the battery life is superb It works really really well.

You just have to check the LOS topic for our device. It says in the OP :
"For some reason, this ROM only needs the Displax SafetyNet Fix and Shamiko (or DenyList) on top of Magisk in order to pass SafetyNet/Play Integrity, which is a nice bonus. As of 11/17, I was able to use GPay with this ROM if you use Magisk, Shamiko, and Displax SafetyNet Fix."
@UltimateGamer83 @i42o thanks, you convinced me to give LOS a try later this week
