MIUI Compass port not working - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

Hello lads,
i've been trying to port the MIUI Compass to the P2XL Android Q (the compass version with AR when phone is flipped to portrait mode) for ages and keep failing to do so. I've tried App cloner with numerous settings without success.
This is the version I am trying to get:

Lately it won't download from this link.
I tried a last resort this morning and copied the app from an actual working Xiaomi Device but the darned thing keeps saying cannot be installed ... I used App cloner and just saved the .apk.
Attached is the copied .apk directly from the Xiaomi device. (not edited in any way).
Does anyone know how to make this work :?

Camera with Photosphere

I've been attempting to install the Google edition camera with photosphere on my HTC One XL running CM11.
There are a number of threads with a link to download an APK based on the camera from Android 4.3 or 4.2.
e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2472879 from the EVO 3D thread
When I attempt to install this APK, It simply says Not Installed.
My understanding was that it would coexist with the existing Gallery and camera app.
So I looked for another way to install the camera and found the following link to put together a ZIP to install from Recovery:
http://floodping.org/photosphere-on-cyanogenmod-11-4.4.2/
I followed this through and made a zip file; booted into Recovery (TWRP 2.6.3 with SELinux) and installed it.
It showed up in the applications as Camera, the same as the CM11 camera but is installed in /system/app/GoogleCamera.apk where CM11's camera is called Camera2.apk
I used the Nexus 5 factory image as the basis for this. My zip file.
The results:
Camera, video and panorama worked as for the normal camera
Photosphere started fine. Took a number of photos in the grid. Hit the stop button. Hadn't crashed yet. Now if I change anything it crashes "unfortunately camera has stopped" or similar. At that point, if it hasn't completed rendering the panorama it creates then it will manually need to be force stopped.
By anything, I mean closing the camera or trying to change the camera mode. You can swipe to show the filmstrip view of previous photos but if you select one then the camera crashes.
So... I left it sitting there with the camera open for a while - hopefully long enough to do whatever rendering it needed. Then crashed out. Viewed in gallery and shared in Google+. Here.
One odd thing. I took images around about 180 degrees. They were stitched together as if they were 360 degrees.
I do have a couple questions:
For the APK version - any idea why it would say "Not Installed"? I had enabled Unknown Sources. I do have Norton Mobile installed.
Recovery installed version:
Is anyone working on the development of this?
Is there anything I can do?
I used the Nexus 5 factory image as the base. Generally I understood that apps are fairly universal so would it make any difference to use the Nexus 4 image?
Has anyone else had success, limited or otherwise, with Photospheres on the Evita?
Moved to the Q&A forum since this is essentially a troubleshooting issue and I think you'll get better exposure here.
For your first question, the only reason I see is because it is trying to overwrite a system file.
I suggest going into /system/app and backing up your current camera APK and then deleting it. Restart the phone and THEN try to install the new APK.
AFAIK, the apps should be relatively universal along the same base, provided you are using the same Android version, this does have exceptions though.

Google's ARcore not working on my OnePlus 6

I downloaded ARcore from google playstore today along with some sample apps using ARcore but each one just keeps searching for planes. I have never seen a single blue dot or anything resembling the fact that it is actually working. The apps load, they just don't see any surface.
Does anyone experience this?
I'm running latest update (ONEPLUS A6003_22_180614) and I have been unable to find ANY INFO on this issue.
Please, if you have any information or similar experience help me out here cause I'm really lost.
Thanks in advance.
How did you download it from Google store if its not officially supported?
I tried installing it today but all apps using ARcore crash for some reason.
Glad u posted this as I'm not able to start threads yet.
I too can't seem to find compatible software to use this.
I side loaded it a couple days ago. The link is in the article in news feed
As soon as I seen the information about google's Measure app came out, I went and installed ARCore and Measure, and it worked perfectly. So maybe there are a lot of apps that don't work with this phone yet?
As a note: I'm on the latest update (5.1.8) with root. Didn't modify the camera app.
There has to be a compatible gcam built for oneplus 6 to use arcore and stickers. What did you think you were just going to use it with the stock oneplus cam? LMFAO!!
Measure does work with the stock cam
Well then how does it work? I have no idea how to use it or what it requires and I've seen people using it on OP6 be it sideloaded before it was suppoted or from google playstore (It is on playstore, I can download it no problem it is supported since few days ago it's all over the internet)
Do you need a special hardware cam to connect to it for it to work?
What do you mean gcam built specifically for oneplus 6?
I thought you only need the ARcore app and then one of the apps that take advantage of it like "just a line".
The apps load well but it isn't scanning anything.
Thanks for replies.
EDIT: Guys, it now works, I tried to download aforementioned Google Measure and IT WORKS finally and now all of the other apps work as well. Thank you for replies I would have not been able to resolve this issue without your suggestions. Thank you.
SOLVED
I installed ARCore from APK Mirror. Then 2 days ago when I saw the Measure app was out, I went to install it from the Play Store. It showed as Not compatible. Looked again yesterday and it said it was compatible. Installed it. Runs as a seperate app. No change to my stock camera
What else is working well?
Most apps I saw were buggy for other phones.
Jurassic Park is cool, if u like Dino's walking around your house
I can't seem to get measure to work I've downloaded arcore and Google measure but nothing seems to happen when I open the measure app it keeps telling me just to move my hand back and forth across the scene but there's no measurement, what did you guys do to solve?
For Google measure, I just open the app, aim my camera at what I want to measure, then a dot matrix appears on the area. Drag the length or width icon from the bottom to measure.
Qlone works good of you want to make 3d images of things around your house
Best way to get any of the apps to work is to scan a newspaper which is on a table or your bed if it has a pattern design sheet on top. The apps do not recognise plain surfaces properly.

Which camera? Which mod?
my op6 also had the problem of no automatic surface scanning. I tried installing google measure but it didn't helped. Finally, after rebooting the phone i managed to use it. So try to reboot your device if you have the same problem
After andoid p beta 2 arcore works fine.. was able to download from play store and played around for a while.. seems to be good..

Stock camera has no ar options.
Don't know what else to tell u.
Phone has no root, no nothing. Just like it was out of the box, besides updating to 5.1.8

How to get Google Phone back on One UI?

Hey everyone,
I foolishly deleted Google Phone from my phone on One UI and now, when I check the Play Store, it is not even listed. I also have Light Flow installed and had to revert to the legacy app for a phone on Android 6.0 or older. I believe although this is Android 9.0, it's somehow registering as something considerably older.
Any ideas on a phone APK that will install? I tried a few from APK Mirror but none of them would install. I also tried the new Pixel dialer and the same results.
In the worst case, I'll just continue to use the Samsung stock dialer, but would really prefer the Google on, especially since the icons look better using the new Pixel Launcher.
Thanks!
**Edit** I don't know how to delete this thread so instead, I'll link to the new pixel dialer that worked for me on Android Pie Beta after I deleted Google Phone and it was found to be incompatible on media fire searching for Google_Phone_8.0.148481159__Patched__%281%29.apk
I'm on ZRJ9 Pie Beta and the newest v26 from this thread is working for me just fine

wallet app issue

Hi all,
I've been using Wallet app (by budgetbakers) on P40 pro for a few months already. I originally downloaded the app from the Huawei store but accidentally updated to the "latest" version through Aptoide store (pic attached). Since the update app crashes immediately on start and seems like it's not compatible with the phone. From the app info it says it`s certain version 4121 for Samsung (pic attached) even though latest version of the app is 83.111.
It wont allow me to downgrade the app manually either, gives me error message that I`ve been using newer version( pic attached)... Is there any workaround that will help me save and backup my inputs? Or my only hope is that a next version will overwrite this bs and allow me to open the app.
I really need dis dam data...
