You probably have an OmniVision sensor. Old drivers used in custom ROMs are very buggy in Oreo. That’s about to change soon.
For now, look here.

Good Stable CM13 ROM from existing ones

I am currently on MIUI 7 global stable and want to flash CM13. Can you please guide me to which are the options I have currently for :
- Good calls and call volume (I use 3G only..no LTE)
- Bluetooth pairing and music through bluetooth headphones
- Working Camera
- Fingerprint (I have a FPC102..checked via AIDA64)
No offense but I saw most of the devs mentioning in the bugs section "You Tell" but there are some ifs and buts..
I already have TWRP flashed..
Most of you might have already tried all the ROMS..hence asking your opinion..thank you dear friends and the wonderful devs
Official CM13 has almost no problems for me (I say almost because I haven't encountered any that haven't been fixed in a day or two). Fingerprint is faster than MIUI tbh. Must be because fingerprint is baked-in in android marshmallow. Don't have to bother with MIUI force closing apps (torrent apps always closed after some time in MIUI) . Multitasking is great! With MIUI my phone felt like a 1.5 GB phone with its aggressive memory handling. Regarding camera the camera quality may have degraded slightly or it may just be placebo. But the MIUI camera app is definitely nicer and faster. That's the only thing I'm missing from MIUI. Some people have problems like fingerprint not working (even if Aida show FPC102), battery always stuck at 2% or 50%, led not working etc with official Cm13 but none of those problems for me . So stability would probably depend upon your luck.
I haven't tried Santosh's CM13 as it is said to lock bootloader again. I have tried resurrection remix but some bugs like recent apps showing even Android system (which has been present since resurrection lollipop in all devices. It doesnt hinder much but Android system is not supposed to show in recent apps. To understand what I'm talking about, when you open say a YouTube link it shows menu for which app you would like to open the link with and even that will be present in the recent apps.) and data not working ( data may be fixed by now though). I haven't tried other because Official one satisfied me very much.
Try the official one for once and see if you have any bugs. If not restore MIUI. MIUI 8 is coming and it seems it has some cool features but nothing to bring me back to MIUI.

camera wont focus on objects firther away

Hello guys,
i hope it isnt a duplicate since there seem to be many different camera issues with this device. (eg the clicking focus bug some other people have)
For me, the camera focuses fine for macro images, but as soon as i get further away, it seems all blurry.
This continues n o matter which rom i used (Revenge OS Pie(focusfix enabled), AOSP Pie(focusfix enabled), cuoco92 eui 5.9, EUI 6.0.2)
I read of this bug as a nougat issue, but for me for eui based and pie roms the bug continues.
I honestly only want a rom with okayish battery backup and working camera.
any suggestions?
Thank You!
Well my friend that seems to be a hardware issue with the camera, probably the camera module for focusing has died, that's why it focuese only at certain distance. I had the same issue, tired every possible ROM or focus fix.... the only way to fix this is to buy a new camera from aliexpress or such store, and replace it. After that it works flawlessly.

Camera and flash/flashlight (torch) not working and NOTHING changes this

So I'm really tearing my hair out over this.
A short while ago, Gcam stopped working, and the flashlight or torch option stopped working. Other people have reported this issue, with various fixes suggested. One was to flash the latest vendor firmware, which I did. Didn't work. Another one was to flash a Gcam fix by PixeL from the BSG Gcam port thread. Didn't work. I thought maybe it was an issue with Pixel Experience, so I flashed LOS. Now the camera worked, but only in certain modes and the flashlight/torch icon was still grayed out. Third party flashlight/torch apps still said it couldn't access the flashlight. I've even now tried a full, complete wipe of *everything* including internal storage and installed the latest MIUI beta and vendor from scratch. Nothing. Flashlight grayed out and camera only works in certain modes (if I go to slow-motion, for instance, it crashes and loses access to the camera).
This is so frustrating. Please, anyone, help. There are other people who have had this same issue, but all of them were able to find a way to fix it through flashing those fixes or whatever else. It's not working for me and it's making my experience with the phone really frustrating.
I Have been Facing Same Issue Since The Last Global Stable update
It Happens every once in a While But some reboots fixes the problem but since yesterday I Am not able to use the primary 12mp camera . I did reboot my device many time to get it working but nothing works now..... Did You Get Your Camera Working ?? Neither slow motion mode working nor portrait.... Slow motion mode instantly crashes the camera app and portrait mode gives the error of can't connect to camera.... If your Camera is working now please suggest the way to fix it it's really frustrating

For once download the fastboot rom of miui and flash it. FASTBOOT ROM. Can be both stable or beta but must be fastboot. Do not use twrp etc to flash.
USE MIFLASH TO FLASH THE FASTBOOT ROM.
Just use fastboot rom. If it still doesn't work, then it's probably a hardware issue.

Anyway I'm so disappointed from this device...
I am facing the same problem, dii those reboots but it didn't work, help me wit it
me too..how to solved?
I have similar problem with my Pixel Experience Plus ROM Android 11 on Zenfone Max Pro M2 X01BDA. The flashlight button is greyed out and says "camera in use"
No camera app came with the ROM so I installed GCam specified for X01BDA but anytime I open the app it says camera in use by another app
This problem is common with other ROMS I installed too ; Evolution X, Lineage OS 18.1
HELP!!
I'm so frustrated

Actually it's not a software related issue ....in my case i got the camera sensor replaced by the service center under warranty which fixed my problem since then it's working fine... it's a hardware related issue ...so if you're camera switched to secondary camera and crashes on slow motion and portrait mode and also greyed out flash then none of the flashing tricks will work.
Have a Nice Day

I had also same problem bro!!!
Is ur problem fixed??

Received 12.0.4 Global today

My 9T Pro received 12.0.4.0 QFKMIXM about 14 hours ago. It went smoothly and I notice I now have more available storage and Have Android security dated January 2021.
I imagine 12.5 of MIUI will be available in the coming weeks. I might wait a while before I upgrade to that. It would be nice to see if there are any bugs in the new rom.
I also received the 12.0.4. in my case I lost the camera with the upgrade. Now the camera app crash everytime I take a picture. It is also impossible to change between lenses. In average I was happy with the phone but I don't understand why Xiaomi is doing always thing like that.
I usually use google cam but I just check the Mi cam and it was fine. Maybe you could try to clear the cache on the cam app and then see if it works.

Thanks for your answer. I tried everything and nothing has changed. Let's see if Miui 12.5 can solve the problem. I think that next week is gonna start the roll out of this version
You could do worse than use this Gcam app. It works well for me. I never use the Mi camera app.

Question Really weird camera recording issue

For context, I'm running lineage (19-20220824-NIGHTLY-dre) and this issue happens on every single camera app I've tried.
If I record a video let's say like a 2 second recording and then go to open that video the clip suddenly is an hour long with basically the entire hour being a single frame and the last 2 seconds being the 2 seconds I recorded. What's even weirder is the audio from the video plays during the first two seconds and then doesn't for the remaining time. Overall really weird and frustrating and I've spent hours trying to figure out what would cause this to no avail. Additional most gallery apps won't even open the videos recording and no pc can open them either. Any ideas?
Have you tried update Lineage? It's most recent update is 9/21 it looks like your about 4 updates behind. Not sure if it'll fix your issue though as I did not use camera while using Lineage and have since gone back to stock due to a display bug.
Edit: If you do want to update it SHOULD be fairly simple. You just go to settings>system>update and it should pull whatever the newest update it and install in the background. Note that even though it shouldn't cause any errors, there's always the chance it will so just be aware and ready.

Ah ok, sorry that's all I got. You could always submit a bug report on the Lineage gitlabs and hopefully someone gets to it.
This is why I stick to US OEM Stock rom.
I can de-bloat it and EVERYTHING works.

You got a debloat list or something you follow? I could go for that see if smooths stock a little when playing pokemon go.
I have the latest LIneage, with the same problem, and am completely lost with what it could be. Recording videos in Snapchat works normally, but the stock camera, GCAM, and the GrapheneOS camera all have this issue, probably because they all use the Camera2 API.
I encountered this problem today but the uploads on Google photos came out correct (when I 'free up space' )
I am having this issue as well, just checking to see if anybody might have discovered anything
