Camera not working on AOSP Roms - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I have already flashed two different ROMS. Clean flash, wiped data, cache, system and even internal storage. I installed stock gapps for 8.1.
I've tried two different ROMS. First one was Firehound and the second AOSP Extended. In both the camera isn't working, not even opening (just tells me it stopped working) third party camera apps don't work either.
Am I missing something here?

Gapps issue.

Flash the latest stock firmware.
Camera will start working.

I flashed Quark OS ROM yesterday and wiped the internal storage. But don't know why I am getting this issue 'Camera not available' while using any camera apps. Also native app is not working. I tried your camera patch, but still it doesn't work. Any guesses??

can't uninstall apps on all CM builts

Hi everybody,
i really hope someone can help me with the following issue. I am currently on ResurrectionRemix-M-V5.7.3-20160820-kenzo and i can't uninstall apps.
Everytime i click on "uninstall" my phone is rebooting (i instantly see the resurrection bootscreen then) when it's booted the app is still installed.
Also i can't change the displaylock. When i try to change the displaylock method, enter for example a pin and press "ok" it just throws me back to the settings
screen. Exactly this issue i have with other roms too.
So here once more shortly - CM related issues:
can't uninstall apps - reboot's
can't change displaylock method - crashes
I think this issue is related to CM itself, because i had exactly the same issue with CM13 Snapshot and also with all Nightlies above the latest Snapshot.
I also tried the last days the MIUI 8 developer ROM - 6.10.13 , there i didn't have this issue.
On MIUI i had other issues - for example:
heavy battery draining
lockscreen / fingerprint settings crashes permanently
bad performance
I still have a big logfile from MIUI which contains very much systeminformation.
I can also provide catlog files if someone tells me what actions i shall log?
What i already tried:
reinstall ROM
factory reset
tried different roms - not only CM
deleted settings data and retried
Did you install the CM firmware? Also that's a very old build of that ROM is it not?
It is the latest built , i just installed it today. So it is a fresh and clean Installation .
It's not the latest build. Please re-read the thread on the ROM. The version linked in the OP of that thread IS NOT the latest.
Okay, but are these issues related to the Version? AS i mentioned, i had same issues with cm13 snapshot and cm13 latest nightlies.
I downloaded and installed the Rom from here https://basketbuild.com/devs/resurrectionremix/kenzo
It is the latest!

Those are not the latest build. Check that thread again, there are link to the 10 Oct build somewhere there. And you need to flash CM firmware first before installing any official CM13 based roms.

Okay, i found a newer Version and installed it AS described. Still have same issues
Hey everybody, i want to share the status to this thread.
I flashed the latest "Radon" Kernel and all my issues disappeared. I can uninstall apps and change the lockscreen Method.
I just wanted to share this result if someone else has these problems. And also it means that anything might be wrong in the cm13 kernel.
Thanks again to all people responding to my thread
Radon kernel really worked

so, i was using cm13 for the last few months on my rn3pro.
since the very first install, i flashed radon kernel.
(i actually didn't know uninstalling apps cause soft reboot on cm kernel)
recently i flashed resurrection remix rom, didn't flash any custom kernel.
i was facing exact the same problem, phone soft reboots while uninstalling app....
flashed radon kernel, and problem's gone!

My rear camera isn't working on all the nougat roms i tried...it works perfectly with Miui though..i tried the new camera fix patch too bt not working for me...The front facing camera works like charm bt ...there's not even a option to switch to the rear camera in any rom i tried. I tried third party camera apps too bt didn't work for me..
I have tried to clean flash romsmany times still the problem persists.

Please help!!

I got that issue when i got out of miui. Fix it by flashing a custom kernel (Radon in my case)

Missing camera sensor libs probably (NOT the fixed patch).
Head on to Agni N kernel thread, download camera libs zip from there and flash it, ur rear cam shud probably work again.
After that, if u face any issues related to crash or something, flash that cam fix patch.

Hey , there is this new problem that arose here.
So i have a Goodix fingerprint so i'v been using a XOSP patch for it to run on all Nougat roms.
This fix you gave me worked perfectly when i flashed them on any custom kernel (in my case Radon), but this seems to disable my fingerprint sensor.
And when i make the fingerprint work, the camera gets back to what it was earlier, i mean without the rear camera.
These both features are not working at the same time for me.
Please help me with this :crying:
Thanks in advance

Try flashing stock kernel first using twrp image flashing option(extract bootimg from rom's zip), flash cam libs and boot once
If all works fine, then flash radon and check.
I dont know if it will work but give it a try.

That might cause the problem. Stock version of gapps come with Google Camera which may interfere with your gcam apk. Try installing packages which don't include Google Camera, such as pico, nano, micro, mini or full.

Clean flash is always preferred, especially if it comes to rom/gapps things. Flashing it directly probably won't remove previous gapps package so yeah.

I always go for pico or nano, they have everything that's not available in play store, the rest can be downloaded directly from it.

It's the one before all night shot got introduced (it's a Pixel 2 port) but all features work as intended (camera, video, slow-mo, portrait, front and back flash) all stable and nice picture quality.
You'll need to uninstall the GCam apk that's pre-installed in the device.

Primary Camera not working on any of the custom roms

Hello xda,
im having this annoying issue of the primary camera not working on any of the custom roms. i tried alot of custom roms still and it wasnt working in anyone of them. Don't know what issue is this. camera doesnt work in any type of camera operation related apps. I always follow the full clean rom flash instructions provided by the respective developers.
Please help me with the solutions.
when you say it doesn't work? what do u mean? the app is crashing ? or app works but all you see is black window? please explain?
remember even on custom rom , gcam crashes sometimes!

say for example if i open snapchat/insta or whatsapp or camera app it shows black screen and then the app freezes completely
Fastboot Flash the stable miui and try custom roms again..
Also, when you are flashing the ROM's, are you also flashing the firmware/vendor packages with the ROM?
