Camera bug - Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers

Hi to everyone. I have a issue: when I switch to wide angle or front camera it takes 3 secons before switching, and in video mode when I switch to wide angle it freeze the app, and when I click the super stabilization icon it freeze also. After a reboot I don't have these issues, but after a while it come back.
Someone with the same bugs? I hope that can be all fix with a software update.
Cheers

Everything fine here. It takes about <1sec to change cameras. If I keep changing them very quickly after 5/6 times it freezes for a little bit
Could you try gcam: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1343/ and see if you have the same problem?

hi there, i have the same issue, i have also updated to the latest miui. reboot fixes it but it will come back

Hello. I have problems with the camera with both stability and autofocus. I reset the system 2 times and finally understood the problem. If 1080 60p video is selected, the camera works poorly in af and stability. The problem also does it with Gcam. 60p must be disabled. In both video and pro mode 60p must be disabled. restart the app.

I'm "glad" that I'm not the only one with this issues.
Hopefully it will be fixed soon, because it affects face unlock also :/

I have the exactly same problems that you have.

For 24hrs camera worked fine. Then suddenly all the bugs mentioned above returns. Now I tried to disable face unlock, maybe somehow it affects camera app. I'll update you.

Hi to all! I have an important update for the camera bug.
I tried to deactivate the face unlock and reboot, and now almost 1 week with no problems mentioned on my thread! So it's seems that face unlock is the problem. Try for yourself
Cheers

Nope. I sent an email directly to Poco, and they answered me in 24hrs. Then after I discovered this workaround, I told them and reply in 3 hrs. So I think it's better to send an email

Hi, I have had the same type of problem for a few days. the main lens autofocus bug, but the ultra wide angle works. I have tried your previous advice without success for the moment. I continue the research ...

Nope never noticed something like this bro

Hello, I bought the X3 2 days ago and I'm too having the same issues with the camera app. How's your phone did it got fixed, by the way I'm using the indian variant which has extra battery and no NFC. The camera bugs are the same you have mentioned. It's scary that this issue still persists even after a month from the phone launch. Is there any way to fix it? Please tell so.

Yes, I have tried that fix by disabling face unlock. And after a day, i have not seen this bug. Disabling face unlock helps. But I would like to use face unlock at the same time. The question is why POCO still haven't sent update fixing this month old crucial issue??

I do not think that poco officials read this thread so maybe you sent them an e-mail and ask about this issue.

Vertical blur lines in Snapchat?

Anyone getting strange vertical blurred lines when recording snapchat video? It only occurs in low light settings. When I record video from my camera app these lines do not appear. It is pretty annoying.
Did you figure out a fix by any chance? Mine does the same thing on the same phone.
Also having the same issue.
Big blur line from top to bottom, in the middle of the screen.
Also visible in the recorded video :/
** just installed the latest snapchat there, 4.1.05 and no longer have this issue
** spoke too soon, still having this issue !
Same here :/ any fix?

i just flashd the Stock Google Play Edition ROM that was posted in the Development forum to my Moto G.
And i no longer get vertical lines while recoding
So i'm guessing its maybe an issue with the Motorola Camera and Snapchat,
seeing as the GPE Moto G uses the google/android Camera.
FIX!!!!
For anyone still having this problem, opt for beta testing in the settings. One of the fixes in the beta version is for the Moto G's video. Working perfect for me now! :good:

lollipop flashlight bug

Hi
Anyone having an issue with the stock flashlight app on the new Lollipop 5.0 not turning on
As a person working in IT and with crappy eye sight, this app really is a must for me.
A reboot of the phone will fix it, but by then the need for the light will normally have passed as I'll just ask someone around me for help
Found this was happening on the preview l as well, thought it they have sorted it in the finished release.
Cheers
Paul

Im asking to see if the light does in fact work. If the light doesn't work with the camera either, then your light may be broken
The issue is intermittent and a quick reboot always fixes the issue. I must check the next time it goes, if the camera is broke as well

I have no idea what could cause that. My flashlight comes on every time I toggle it. Tesla LED (I think that's the name of it) is a good flashlight app in the Play Store if you want to try a third party app and see if it works better for you
Yup. I posted about this. When it refuses to work try open the camera app. It'll say cannot connect to camera

Most likely its a camera issue then. The flash LED and the camera software are connected.
Only rebooting fixes it that I've found so far. Seems to happen after using the flashlight for a long time

From what Ben36 is saying, it seems to be caused my leaving the flashlight on for a long period of time. So I would say it's a bug in the system that Google needs to fix. Try other apps like the one I mentioned and see if you get the same issue.

Cool, thanks will do
Had a similar issue today, flashlight turned off for no reason, then refused to turn back on until i restarted the phone.
never happened to me before until today and the only difference was that the phone was charging now.
I can say I am also having this issue and hopefully a fix is on the way unless cm does it first...

Honor 8 fingerprint scanner

I have honor 8 for 2 weeks already and at the start the scanner was working just fine now it is acting weirdly(I haven't dropped it yet and I'm that water didn't go inside ), sometimes it work sometimes it does not, I tried to delete and add my finger print again and it didnt work anyways now I cannot even add it because it says to put more preasure at the scanner. I'm using eu version of the phone bought it of amazon (cannot link it "To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding!")
Weird i have no isseus at all i got mine last week too...EU version have you tried to factory reset? If it doesn't work you probably got a defective one and you will need to replace it with a new one
Try to update (if available), and do a factory reset

I know what i will say will not solve your problem but it's better to know. I played a lot with this fingerprint sensor. The sensor itself it's fast, it's the EMUI who make it slow down a lot. If you will try to just touch your fingerprint sensor and take the finger VERY VERY FAST you will see that sometimes the phone will unlock but with a bit of delay. And if you will try to unlock the phone with the fingerprint sensor and lock it again for more times and are you doing this fast the phone sometimes will not unlock.
Back up all the data on your device then do a factory reset. That should fix the problem with your fingerprint scanner.

Choppy and laggy scrolling every 3 seconds

Hi
Weird problem with my device (3 months old), after playing for a while with the device it suddenly starts to make these weird choppy and laggy scrolling every 3 seconds, like it is doing something in the background, i see it when scrolling, when playing, when facebooking or anything else.
I downloaded apps to see if the CPU is workng without touching it, couldnt see anything in the background unless i touched the phone.
Can it be something bad within the Oreo 8.1 code? This is really ruin the user experience i have with it, making it work sometimes likek my old Meizu or even worse.
It goes awaay after rebooting, or after a while by itselfe.
I clean the RAM always, i stopped lots of permission apps to work in the background but cant see the difference.
Any suggestions?
I also had this problem. It completely disappeared when I made a software update.
I think it was temporarily fixed by turning on "deactivate HW-Overlays" in the developer settings. However, as far is I've read, this could decrease battery performance.
Greetings
Thanks ill try it, but i do have the 8.0 version** after an OTA update after i got the phone..
Well i came back to say this tweak works!
It wont get choppy anymore..thanks!

I did exactly what metaxuss instructed me to do, you need to open the Developer mode and right after look in the search button on the Settings for HW overlay, turned it on and now it works like a charm, i hope they will fix it under the next update..

I have found that to happen too, but its a quick fix,
really shame that HTC wont solve this, and why would it happen only on our devices?
Same problem for me. If I disable the option, it looks better as you said but Netflix does work anymore (sound, subtitles ok but no display)...
So I'm waiting for a fix from HTC

Delay when pressing notifications

Hello guys, I recently got my new Oneplus 8T, and, whilst the device is amazing from what I could use it, it has an annoying flaw that I couldn´t find any information of.
When I press a whatsapp, telegram, etc notification, there´s a bit of delay inbetween the press and the start of the app opening. The phone does it the majority of times, as you can see in the video below (at the 10 second mark it opens it right):
Do you have an idea on what could be causing this? Does any of you have the same issue I do? I tried turning off everything related to battery saving, even factory reseting. Any help is much appreciated, thank you in advance!

I've come across some people with this specific flaw, I contacted Oneplus and they told me to factory reset the phone and if that didn't help (which did not, since I've gone wayy further with it, installing HydrogenOS and older versions of OxygenOS and didn't solve the issue), it "might" be a software issue and it "might" be solved in the next software update.
For how much have you been with the phone?
What is bugging me is that this problem is too specific for it to be a hardware issue.

Yes, I still have my Oneplus 7 Pro and it works flawlessly. I think I found something crucial.
The problem lays whitin the "Notifications" apartment. I'll explain myself.
As you can see in this new video I recorded
that weird delay shows when I open a notification coming from the tab "Notifications". BUT, when I open the SAME APP (Play Store) from a notification coming from "Other notifications" there's no delay at all, the phone works flawlessly, see how I press to see how my download is going, there's no lag. It would be wonderful if you could try it yourself, and see if that's the case on you unit too.
Taking this into account, I'm almost 100% sure this is a software related problem, and has nothing to do with hardware, probably a bug.
I'll report it to the bug reporting section of Oneplus and see if they can work on it.

The latest OTA kinda did something for me. I get the delay 5 out of 10 times I press a notification. Used to be 9 out of 10 times lol. It's not completely fixed but it's an improvement. What I did was send a bug report to the Oneplus bug reporting site and they said that they will be working on it.
