Stock Camera app lags for 10 seconds when I'm switching to Video - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

So, I updated to MIUI 10.1.3 (Official Pie update) a couple of days ago and I've noticed that whenever I open the Camera app and try to switch to video, I get a huge delay, before I can go on about capturing anything.
There is a 5 or so second delay, before the video window shows up and another 5 seconds until the video capture button becomes responsive.
I fiddled around with the Camera settings and it turns out that the "Save to SD Card" setting is responsible for the lag. Considering I've always been saving my shots on the SD Card and I've never had this issue before the Pie update, I'm inclined to believe that the problem doesn't come from my SD Card.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar, before or after the MIUI 10.1.3 Update and is there a way to fix this without having to turn the setting off?

I am having the same issue after change save to sd card, mine is even worst, the camera only start running after 20 seconds change to video mode. i am using micro sd SAMSUNG EVO PLUS 64GB.

If you want this resolved, you should report the bugs you have found (with video to show it) to MIUI devs directly

I am having the same problem

Same issue! Pushing record button and dont know is it started, then realised that phone is lagging. Im using save to an SD card option. Im still new with this phone.

I have problem with portrait mode in rear camera, take the photo but no apply boke effect

Hi,
I had the same problem and realized too that it came from saving photos on my SD card (a Samsung Evo 128 Go).
I solved (= bypassed) the problem using the Magisk module "Fbind" (I put the instruction "from_to DCIM DCIM" [without quotes] in the config.txt file to put in the folder "storage/emulated/0/fbind").
Now, I still save my photos on my SD card but "cheat" the phone by making it believe it saves photos on the internal storage ("Save to SD Card" is now disabled in the configuration of the app).
Everything works fine now for me...

Ok, so i was about to start a new topic about this problem when i found this.
Now, the last reply is 5 days ago suggesting to "cheat" the camera by faking save to internal storage by magisk.
Is there no official, normal fix for this yet?
Is this problem reported to the devs already?

I'm facing the same problem. I sent the thread link via feedback app. I hope they solve...

[Q] FC when adding photos to album

Does anyone else experience a force close of the Gallery when they attempt to add a photo to an album? I.E - Gallery.. Pick a picture.. Menu.. Add to album.
Thanks,
Rick
I am having force close issues and problems saving pictures when I was saving to my SD card. I switched to internal storage and everything is now fixed.

Could it be the sd Card? What card do you have?

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I am having this issue. Has anyone found a fix?
I have tried, moving pics over to internal storage, formatting sd card and moving back, and even taking a new picture. So far no luck
I never found a fix, and MR5 did not appear to fix the problem either.. This happens if my photos are stored on internal memory, or on a card..
guess I will hit the motor phoroms in the morning. Thanks for the update.
Just wanted to update this. I also ran into the issue of not being able to record videos as well, or them being deleted if it did record.
A few hard resets later and i found a work around. Hard reset and clear cache, and only add your google account. then open the camera and set up the sd card etc. then go into gallery and add a pic and make an album. After that is should work. I am not sure if it the camera not searching the sd card or adding facebook that causes it, but this is what has worked for me on 3 occasions now.

[Q] Video Camera doesn't record video

i can't seem to record any video. camera app is working fine but whenever i switch to camcorder, it acts like it's recording but when i go to gallery, it's saying file cannot be displayed or played. when i try to play those files on a pc, it says it's not a video file/file corrupted.
has anyone experienced this?
I haven't. And I just used mine a couple days ago. Now this may also be silly but have you tried using the camcorder app? Rather than switching to video mode in the camera app. (I really don't think that will make a difference but worth a shot)
Are you recording to Internal storage? If so then you shouldn't have a problem, but if your recording to ext-sd then maybe your SD card is malfunctioning. I'd try a factory data reset if your recording to Internal Storage, and a new SD card otherwise.
If it is an SD card issue, there is a couple things he could do before replacing it, such as unmount/remount, and if that doesn't work, back up his data and wipe it. Then if neither of those work, get a new SD card.
A buddy had a similar issue with music, had to unmount then remount the card to get the phone to access the music on it. That worked. So.
I had a similiar issue, factory reset did not fix it, nor did a reflash of the latest sbf. Here is what finally did:
1) Reflash or hard reset stock rom
2) Only set up initial email
3) open the camera/camcorder (should prompt you for storage location)
4) open gallery
5) finish set up of everything else
I had the exact same problem where they would not show up or show up corrupted. I also had an issue trying to put pics into an album though the stock app (would force close).
Good luck and post back with your results.

cyanogenmod 10.1 camera problem

recently I installed cm10.1 on my HTC sensation
I have problem with camera, when I take more the 2 pictures my phone just turn off. It doesn't metter if I usse stock cammera apk or zoom fix, camera fx etc
does anybody have the same problem and is there solution for that?
I have a similar problem. It's been about a week since I installed 10.1 STABLE on my SGS3. Every time I load the stock camera app my phone locks up after just a few seconds and auto restarts. I don't even have time to take a picture. I downloaded a new camera app however, and I am able to take pictures.
I do have the storage set to my external sd card. I thought that was the problem but if another camera app works then that wouldn't make sense.
Like I mentioned above, I have the AT&T SGS3, rooted, with stock CM 10.1 Stable and no extra themes or anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: The above did work but when I went to the gallery to look at the picture, it was stored on the phone. Then, when I went back to the camera and changed the storage location back to external sd card it started locking up again. The other camera app is able to save to the external card just fine. So there must be some issue with the stock app saving to an external sd card.

Its most likely the rom this happens a lot when its a Stock android. its because the htc drivers for the camera aren't installed when you get another rom its quite hard to get it right.

Problem with storage?

Hi,
Lately I've been having problems with my SGSIII.
Problem started while I was on CM10.2 stable.
At one point (after a few days), every time I tried to download a photo using any browser, the download would be unsuccessful (gets to 100% downloading, then error's out saying "Download unsuccessful.").
I tried multiple browsers but didn't help. Some of them said the SD card is inaccessible, but I have no external SD card (had it before, but removed it).
Also, I noticed that the photos I took wouldn't show up in the gallery (would not load thumbnails or show photos), and every new photo I would take would not appear listed.
So I thought that was a CM10.2 bug, and exchanged it with a stock based ROM (NeatROM 6.1), but the problems persisted, except now it shows old photos in the gallery, but every time I would take a new photo the Camera app would freeze.
Transferring files from a PC has no problems, and the Internal Storage shows 3.5 GB of free space.
I tried clearing the data of Gallery app, Browser, tried wiping cache/data/dalvik, fixing permissions over CWM, but nothing helped.
Any suggestion what could cause this problem and how could I fix it?
I checked the forums and googled the problem, but haven't found a solution.
Thanks!

Tried a couple of other things and it didn't work, so I had to resort to reflashing stock firmware. Reflash managed to fix the problem, but too bad I didn't manage to find the culprit of the problem

Mate 10 Gallery Refresh Issue

Hi Guys,
In my Mate 10, when i take a new photo using camera, it does not appear immediately in the 'Photos' section of the Gallery. It is not refreshed immediately or even after a long time. Although it appears at some point in there, but it seems it is random (it can take a long time which is annoying). However, the taken image appears immediately in the Albums section of the Gallery app.
Anybody noticing the same thing on their devices? Any solution?
My build number is ALP-L29 8.0.0.119(C636).
Regards

Are photos saved to SD card or internal storage
It is on sd card

Then try internal storage. If that fixes things then maybe your sd card is not fast enough.
I don't agree since the picture appears immediately in the Album section of the Gallery app. It is the Photos section that has issues in refreshing. I am pretty sure that it is a software bug.

Just tested. Works fine for me on my Mate 10. No bug.
I just did a factory reset and again the same buggy Gallery app! Come on Huawei! You charge a lot for your new phones.
I then installed QuickPic gallery and it works perfectly.
I found where the bug is! If i put the auto launch apps to manual, my problem is solved. I think there is a problem with this feature of EMUI.
