(MI A2) MiCamV2 [v1.0.3][UNITY+gcam patches]['18-11-28]

MIUI Camera v2 - from Mi A2 series
Working on Oreo and Pie (TWRP or Magisk), with packages for AOSP and MIUI based ROM.
Test version includes files from BDD Camera booster patch for gcam fix (front and rear module) by BeatByDad (his work is based on RN5patch from nHappyMan).
For full compatibility (with also gcam support) use build.prop_edits addon to change build.prop
Gcam version suggested
Info:
For AOSP
From dumps of Mi A2, the Camera app works on Lineage 15.1 with the help of some libs, so I've made my module to use it on Los. Thanks to others finding I've now found my perfect combination of options and quality so far.
I've solved sound issue and made a fingerprint shutter toggler (TWRP only) that works system wide.
Note: The camera don't needs camera2 api but works with it enabled too.
For MIUI
The MIUI packages are a simpler version because there is no need to install another camera, stock one is already MIUI Camera v2. The mod just enables more functions in the stock app (you can see from the function list what is enabled and what is stock).
there is no need for camera sound fix or fp shutter toggler here since it's al managed by MIUI.
Depending on the MIUI version there are more function like 60fps available.

Known Issue:
group selfie partially working (good when taking horizontal shot).
1/2 shutter take faster speed pic at nearly 1/6s
On indian models front filter not working (for now disabled because not supported by miui camera, new version supports it)
audio fix disables system camera sound (so they don't work with camera apps that uses them like snap camera)
TWRP package need to be reinstalled after a dirty flash or ROM updates (it gets uninstalled by doing that so can be done to remove the package)
systemwide fingerprint act as a selector when out of camera app (set your camera icon up left in home screen to have fp quick shortcut to camera too)
other camera patches (for examples some gcam patches) can reduce functionality (test without any other patches if having problems at first).
Install:
Select installer you prefer:
- Magisk if you have it installed and want easy install/uninstall and OTA survival
- TWRP if you want to keep system rootless (need to be reinstalled after a dirty flash or a ROM update).
and select:
- AOSP if on Lineage or any AOSP based ROM
- MIUI if you are on a MIUI based ROM
Install Magisk modules in magisk (from magisk repo too) or TWRP (on your choice) and reboot;
For TWRP installer make a backup of system and vendor in TWRP to uninstall. Also dirty flash ROM will restore system and vendor as before installing the package.
For Magisk AOSP since v0.20 you can choose to install FPShutter_toggle also, to enable system wide fingerprint shutter. It's on a separated module so people can chose if enable it and use it on other ports too.
Note: A second install of FPShutter toggle will revert back files as before disabling the module (uninstall), so next time only need to update Camera module/installer.
If camera don't start check permission, try to clear app data (it will reset permission too).
If still not working wipe cache and dalwik from TWRP.
Download:
LAST STABLE RELEASES - AOSP or MIUI, TWRP or MAGISK
Additional packages:
For fingerprint shutter toggle (AOSP only, MIUI not needed):
Since v0.20 Fingerprint Shutter is a separate TWRP installer, so can work on other ports too.
FPShutter_toggle-TWRP_0.4 <--install from twrp ( once, if reinstalled it will revert the mod.)
tip: I have camera icon in up left corner of home screen so when tapping on fp it get selected another tap opens camera and third tap shoots a pic.
For build.prop edits:
Since the package don't need any build.prop on most system but I like to have some set. I came up with that TWRP package that can survive OTA and dirty flash.
It will backup original system/build.prop to system/build.prop.bak and edit prop saved in system/etc/build.prop_edits.sh.
So to use your config just change content in build.prop_edits.sh relative to props and recompress the package.

Credits:
I saw the works of @carlosggb and @ARNOB XENON and from them I've took the slow-mo fix by @Dyneteve and some video recording improvements inspiration also applied with magisk the sound fix by @lawong.
The audio recording fix by @rocker00 is not anymore supported and on some ROMs it gives problems.
Other people working on improving our camera have inspired and helped this work to be done: @jhenrique09, BeatByDad, nhappyMan and others...

Looks promising! Awesome buddy and thanks for share, wished i can give a try but....MIUI user is here.
I'm so interested in this part "Full manual mode (1/4s max shutter)", Please tell me what are the files or the modifications which are responsible for this so i can give a try, i think it's about libs but i am not sure!
Edit: Ohh i thought it's 4s not 1/4s, i already have max 1/2s...any chance for even 8s? redmi note 4 already got 32s https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/how-to/guide-long-exposure-redmi-note-4-redmi-t3657343

On MIUI you should be able to have same results only by editing /system/etc/device_features/whyred.xml
you can not use the one in this module because I've removed lines not for the camera that MIUI needs, but you can see from it what I've changed and added. For group selfie you need also the libs libmorpho_group_portrait.so and libmorpho_groupshot.so
you can put them in /system/lib64/ they are here
for the manual functions the line in whyred.xml is:
Code:
<!--whether support manual focus/exposure_time in camera CHANGED-->
<bool name="support_camera_manual_function">true</bool>

It's 1/4s max because 1/2 is not true at least on Los. If you compare pic taken with 1/4 and 1/2 you will see 1/2 is darker it's more like 1/6 in reality. For more shutter speed I'll start to try after monday to edit the libs.

Yeah i already have all of this, while you're reply i just edited my post.
About shutter speed, from what i gathered from the link i posted above it looks like it's all about this lib "libmmcamera_whyred_s5k2l7_ofilm_cn_i.so" for the global version
and i think imx for the Indian version, we need someone with proper skills in decompiling .so files so he can brings this mode...lets see!

hey, can you make it a a normal flashable zip and not a magisk module?

I have latest ressurection remix with camera 2 api and gcam, which works great, but this app crashes at launch (flashed succesfully via latest Magisk). Any idea what is the issue?

working fine on RR latest build.
fingerprint is working.
haven't tried group selfies.
only still experiencing delay/lag when switching modes or enter the settings, just like the other 2 ports.
guess it's a rom problem.

Yes, app cant even start anyway...

Working smooth on aex 5.8

60 keeps stoping. always this warning when open

have u tried the other ports? have any problem with those?
of those worked, well, I have no idea then.
mine on RR and gcam active also, and have no problem.
both runs normal.
maybe you could pull some log so the dev might know what's going on.
---------
edit :
something weird happened, don't know if it was a bug.
after I update derp kernel to v2.2, this module suddenly force close. (log attach)
so I revert back to previous version (derp v2.1). still force close.
tried to remove the module and flash it again, still force close.
tried to disable gcam, re-flash the module, still force close.
then I'm flashing derp v2.2 again, flash the other port (from carlos) in magisk manager, reboot, the port runs fine.
then I disable that port, while flashing this module in magisk manager, reboot,
and now this module runs normal, no force close.
delete the other port while enable gcam, reboot, now both working normal again.
I have no idea what was happened, lol.

2-After backup, mount system and vendor in flash xpe 13, do not restart return to mount and mount system and flash GSI image,
and then flash permissive 4v
-reboot system
3- the rom must start but the camera or the sim card does not work, after starting the Rom return to recovery restore the backup of the cosmic vendor and restart the system, at startup the sim card must work
4-after the rom starts restarting the fix camera in recovery and flash and restarting the camera should work maybe it takes a moment for the camera to work (remember to mount system and vendor)
5-now we are going to install the Gapps download the most recent ones I use the nano we are going to recovery and flash the gapps and restart
6-Finally flash the magisk phh (optional) should use this magisk if they use another one does not start the rom, just restart and flash magisk phh and restart
luck if you find more GSI which functions share the ?

I tried this method and it's working very well, except that UI is flickering on all GSI's and for ION System UI is crashing.
For example Google Play's left menu, Kernel Adiutor Menu or Firefox tabs list have bugged background and it's switching constantly between black and white theme.

set 650mhz the GPU it should help and the main problem is the older Adreno libs from android 8.0

It's not working, it's not the same problem as in Xperience, beacuse some elements is not rendering in interface.
I will post a video of that.

which GSI ROM combination is currently the most stable + has support for Bluetooth, WiFi and Camera?

After digging on xda for fixes, I made a StagOS working perfectly.
Performance as on XPE or even better, Bluetooth working ( audio too ), no UI lags or glitches, nfc working, autobrightness. I haven't seen any bug.

Hi,
I installed it in Magisk and if the fix is enabled all gcam 7.x are not able to start and stop working moment after start. Tested with magisk 22.1 and LOS 18.1 .

Unfortunately it doesn't work. Tested on EvoX.

I found , the source of problem was AFWall+ [ed]xposed module activated in the system. When I disabled this module, the buffer fix works.

Probably it will fry my camera module in around a month, but unexpectedly it works like a charm on a Xiaomi Mi 9 SE with the latest lineageOS (Android 12) gg

I did clean install official LOS 19.1 and installed buffer fix for TWRP via lineage recovery adb sideload.: GCAM is stuttering.
After that I installed official TWRP "twrp-3.7.0_9-0-pyxis.img" for pyxis and mounted vendor partition prior to installing TWRP buffer fix again via TWRP from mounted USB stick. GCAM is still stuttering.
Any hints/ideas would be greatly appreciated. Maybe gcam does need a special XML config? I tried different GCAM versions, but did not find a XML config for pyxis.

Question Does the X3 Pro support project treble?

I'm looking into buying a Poco X3 Pro in the next few days and I'm wondering if I could try loading a Havoc OS GSI onto it once there's a twrp for it. I really don't like mi ui lol.

Our phone seem to work well with gsi roms. I have tried Havoc, Crdroid and Caos. They are all successfully flashed via fastbootd. One common bug of these gsi roms is broken sound but they can be fixed by installing Viper4Android through Magisk. Get the arm64-bgN-userdebug (with gapp and magisk supported) version. The link for havoc-arm64-bgN-userdebug.img is https://sourceforge.net/projects/braiagsi/files/HavocOS/4.3/ .
I have been using Havoc as my daily driver. It is stable and smooth and no bug (except dt2w not working which is a feature not bug) noticed so far for my type of usage.

hey @jngiag, would it be fine if you could give just a brief steps on how to flash one of these roms?​

./fastboot flash boot boot_magisk.img (boot_magisk.img prepared separately)
./fastboot reboot
3) Fix
a) Magisk -> Update magisk
b) Fix “Device is not Play Protect certified”
-> install Device+ID.apk -> get Google Service Framework (GSF)
-> Go to Google’s Device Registration page here and type your GSF ID on the Android ID box and tap Register
c) Viper4Android -> Magisk -> flash ViperFX_Android11.zip -> flash Ainur Narsil
-> Setting -> Phh Treble Settings -> Qualcomm features -> use alternate audio policy (optional for better sound)
d) Refresh Rate Setting -> Qualcomm features -> Misc features -> Force FPS -> [email protected] (optional)

I just flashed HavocOS "bvN" version (minimal). God it's fast without all this crap from xiaomi and google. I can confirm it works as far as I could check for now.
I just wonder - can HavocOS be auto updated ? I haven't found any updater in the OS itself.

Our phone seem to work well with gsi roms. I have tried Havoc, Crdroid and Caos. They are all successfully flashed via fastbootd. One common bug of these gsi roms is broken sound but they can be fixed by installing Viper4Android through Magisk. Get the arm64-bgN-userdebug (with gapp and magisk supported) version. The link for havoc-arm64-bgN-userdebug.img is https://sourceforge.net/projects/braiagsi/files/HavocOS/4.3/ .
I have been using Havoc as my daily driver. It is stable and smooth and no bug (except dt2w not working which is a feature not bug) noticed so far for my type of usage.

Does it pass safetynet?

I finally settled on CAOS. A piece of advice to add to @jngiag post:
1. Sound is distorted even after installing Viper4Android. To overcome this problem head to Settings --> Phh Treble Settings --> Misc Features --> check "Disable audio effects".
2. There is a problem with backllight not behaving correctly. To correct this go to Settings --> Phh Treble Settings --> Misc Features --> check "Force alternative backlight scale".
@Linkfire360 - there are 4 ways to pass safety net in CAOS. Go ahead and read --> https://github.com/eremitein/treble-patches/wiki/CAOS11-Project

Thanks guys for the instructions and tips.
I managed to get crDroid 7.5 (crDrom11) flashed crdrom-v306-210425-arm64-bgZ.img. Had to switch from Pbrp recovery to OrangeFox. With Pbrp the fastboot reboot fastboot didn't activate the fastbootd mode. Flashed also the miui boot.img patched by magisk.
Sound works fine, following the above tips. Adaptive brightness is a mess, usually too bright, sometimes too dark, even with the Force alternative backlight scale ticked. But it was like this also on Miui. Phone is encrypted. SE Linux is enforcing, Play store is certified with Magisk Props module and Poco X3 Pro fingerprint. DRMInfo shows L1 Widevine, but Netflix shows L3 and and only SD quality playback. DT2W does not work, even with phh treble settings - xiaomi features - DT2W enabled set. Wifi display - casting screen to Sony ATV works, chromecast also works. Android Auto works. All 4 lenses work with NGCam_7.4.104-v2.0. Charging info seems to be incorrect on lockscreen, when fast charging with original charger. Charging speed seems to be correct.
Haven't yet tested call/call recording/mobile data/NFC contactless payment functionality. Edit: NFC payment works.
Updating to new build with fastboot flash system and wiping cache worked fine.

CherishOS also works by dirty flash over HavocOS.
You may also try using the new twrp by just "fastboot boot TWRP-3.5.1-vayu-Nebrassy-1.img" (keep the OrangeFox as permenant recovery) and flash it like normal recovery. Use fastbootd with OrangeFox as a combination if necessary. If gapp could be flashed separately (as what I tried on vanilla Arrow), more choices of gsi roms (vanilla version) will be available then.

Anyone attempted installing gsi rom with 12.0.6 vendor? Any new issue?

Can we flash gsi directly from twrp ?

No, phone has to be in fastbootd mode, where you can get with "fastboot reboot fastboot" command. You have to have quite recent fastboot binary/exe which supports this - download latest Android platform tools. Also the recovery on the phone has to support fastbootd, OrangeFox does.

I tried the vanilla version of Crdroid (crdrom-v306-210428-arm64-bvZ) and flashed gapp separately using new twrp. No issue from vendor 12.0.6. Very nice rom.

I flashed the Crdrom version with gapps. It has the Google Phone app by default. I can't seems to find the call recording functionality in there. Maybe not available in my region. Does the vanilla phone app have call recording?
Anyhow, 3rd party Cube ACR seems to record okay.
My banking apps work, streaming apps DisneyPlus and Prime Video work too. Only regrets so far is the Widevine L3 and SD quality in Netflix and the bad adaptive brightness behaviour.
Crdrom11 GSI seems to have a dedicated xda thread too:

Will any GSI work ex. those from Phh's list or it has to be "modified" first to work with X3 Pro?
I'm thinking about flashing Pixel Experience+ (or normal) from Braialindo repo
Also - is 90hz max or is 120hz also available somewhere?
Thanks

I can't answer you as I have moved to another rom. Likely it should be the same as the gapp version. CrDroid must be very popular and good to have a dedicated thread on it.

Not all the gsi roms in Phh's list will work with our phone without modication. 90hz or 120hz setting is available.

Is it possible to know which one do work without flashing them first? Or is it just trial and error?

It is trial and error. There are more not working uaually end up in boot loader or boot loop mode. So far my known list of working gsi are:
1) Havoc (Braialindo)
2) Cherish (Braialindo) - Only if dirty flashed over Havoc
3) Crdroid R Mod (eremitein)
4) Caos (eremitein)
Version : arm64-bgz; arm64-bvz; arm64-ab-gapps; similar but vanilla version
Please share if you have additional.

Just one doubt sir , can we restore a orangefox backup after flashing GSI ?

Hi, OrangeFox didn't have access to data partition, so I doubt the full restore will work. I have not tested restore nor backup. Maybe it works with the new TWRP? Anyone willing to test? I already started to use this as my primary device, so do not want to experiment anymore.
Second Crdrom charge cycle with 1 sim, seems to give about 12-13h SOT, over 2 day period for my usage.

gcam go is way way better than the stock camera with hdr night mode portrait and soon filters

Increase performance without any battery impact or (by feravolt and gloeysik)
Step 1
- Install FDE AI Magisk Module to make it a system app, thus it will work better and removes all kernel locks from OEMs (I'm looking at you, Samsung) https://github.com/feravolt/FDE.AI-docs/releases/download/12.4.1m/FDE.AI-as-system-app.MAGISK.zip
- Update FDE AI to the latest version by downloading the latest APK here, since the fde ai magisk module will only install fde ai 12.4.1, not the latest version: https://github.com/feravolt/FDE.AI-docs/releases
- Move to the bottom of the screen and select AI Chat, then type /advancedai (no space, no uppercase letters). This will going to make the AI more effective, without you having to do anything.
- Go to the settings tab and use the AUTO settings for FDE AI.
