Mi 5 lineage os 14.1 and google camera - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hi all guys, I'm using lineageos, flashed a couple days ago with gapps full pack...
I have a question for you: I'd like use google camera but it crashes every time. Do you know if there is something like a fix, or it is a problem with the package? In some posts I read that it's suggested to flash gapps pico, but I fear to flash another time, install and google cam won't work.
Do you have any good advices?
Thanks

Google camera needs api2.

Google camera doesn't work properly due to the mixed implementation of the camera HAL by xiaomi. You should use the snap camera that comes with LineageOS, which works well.
If you disable denoise, and set sharpness to 1 the quality is actually quite good.
I do not know of any fix to Google camera, but there's a dedicated thread where different options are being discussed, which might be worth looking into.
Regarding GApps: you can flash them again, and change between different versions when doing so. The installer would check for what's installed already, and switch to wherever you're installing. The aroma package is quite convenient as well, because you can select exactly what you want to install, and enable Pixel luncher and Google assistant directly.

If you are rooted, you can try adding the line below in system/build.prop and then reboot.
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1

Thanks for the tip with the armoa package! it helped me with the camera issue.
The only thing worth mentioning is that in order to re-install the stock camera I had to re-install LineageOS, and then install the aroma package without the google camera.
When I tried to only install the gapps without the google camera so I didn't have any camera app at all.
Anyway now it works, thanks again!

How is the battery life on los 15.1??
Its good
Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 is very stable & as far as I'm concern, also bug-free.
To get better battery life, root it Magisk then install Greenify and Root Master (choose Battery mode).
Currently I'm using Pixel Launcher 3 instead of Trebuchet launcher from RR.
Status: Finish full charge on 7am, bring to work, connect to office Wi-Fi, back home at 6pm (also connect to Wifi), battery is still 48-51% remaining.

Does Resurrection need to wipe internal storage coming from Miui 9 Xiaomi.eu or I can flash it with simple system/data wipe? 120 GB of data is a bit annoying to be moved somewhere else.

Based on my experience moving from MIUI 8 Global Stable to Paranoid 7.2.1, it's not necessary to wipe the internal storage. Just make sure you have the right version of TWRP installed and flashed the most compatible fw version with the ROM you want to flash. As for RR, I use the capricornCNFirmware-7.11.16. Google it for the download link. Happy flashing...

A thing that I really want to know is: I'm moving to an AOSP ROM because Miui 9 system block some apps to properly working, so I want try on another ROM and I want root it,
1) can I go with SuperSU zip as usual or there are better alternatives?
And a very interesting thing I want know is
2) how does camera work? Is it good?
3) if I want apply camera mod to enable 1080p 60 FPS recording, does it work? Never tried?

If you currently use MIUI 9, make sure you unlock the bootloader first to be able to change the bootloader to TWRP. Only after successful install of TWRP you can begin flashing the custom ROM of your choice.
1) As for rooting, I use Magisk (install the zip via TWRP). Magisk comes with handy apps for you to download many interesting add-on module, such as Viper4 music equalizer, Google Product Sans font, Greenify, etc.
2) You can install gcam or even a ported Mi A1 camera apk. Browse through this XDA Xiaomi Mi5 forum. Plenty of information here
3) Sorry. Never tried this. Maybe anybody else can help?

It have that option sometimes its not functioning
60fps can be forced in some 3rd party camera apps(Google camera mods for instance) via modifying a system file, but the effect is actually the opposite. 30fps videos get about 22fps and 60fps gets 24fps. As far as i know it's IMPOSSIBLE to really record 1080p 60fps with Mi5. Probably some hardware limitation, otherwise it would be enabled by default, there have been many official updates since release.

Oh no it is possible to record in 1080p at 60 FPS infact OnePlus 3 with same hardware of Mi 5 already support this function since 2016 (shame on Xiaomi which still doesn't give us this possibility). But fortunately we have great independent developers who try to get us all features to our phone, infact on a forum some good devs were able to bring us recording in 1080p at 60 FPS. Check the Mi 5 mod section to find it and be able to use it.
Tried it, doesn't really work, I thought I made it work too. Read what I said... As far as I've read on all forums, nobody made it work, so it must be impossible. I can really love with it though.

Best Stable 8.1 custom rom for OnePlus 3T

You can install Google Camera on every ROM by yourself, so you don't have to judge ROMs by this feature
Dirty Unicorns is incredibly stable, it is what I would recommend.
I would recommend OMNI 8.1 as the performance is top notch for this ROM that will help you in gaming. As far as customization is concerned, this gives good amount of customization but not like resurrection remix.
And at last , use Skull shaddy GCam which is readily available without any further fix or setting.

Use OpenGapp ARM64 pico version, as this will give you minimum system apps such as google play store and google. After booting to the system you may install required useful apps such as gmail, youtube, maps etc from playstore. These apps can be easily uninstalled as they are installed as apk files from play store.

I did never find any issue regarding dialer or anything in any ROM.
Make sure, always clean install any ROM.

Magisk is not specific to a ROM or even device. Current/latest Magisk version marked "stable" is the usual recommendation. Unless you're asking what version number is known working on this particular ROM (question wasn't specific enough to know exactly what you intended).
Use the link given in the previous reply.
Since Sultanxda has now unfortunately changed his smartphone and stopped developing his excellent ROM for the OnePlus, I will have to look for a new ROM. :crying:
With LineAge OS from sultan I never had a problem in the past, absolutely stable, super battery life and never an error, although I always installed all updates without ever reinstalling (only dirty flash).
Now I am looking for a ROM that runs as stable and problem-free as possible and is ideal for daily use.
Updating should also be possible without any problems and no new installations should be necessary, because clean flash takes so much time.
Customization of the ROM is not so important, I don't have to be able to adjust every color of every symbol
I would be very pleased about suggestions!

Go to phone setting search for 'home' tap on home apps > Phone app > select any app either phone(the one which comes preinstalled) or the google dialer(phone app by google).

The first one is the home page of OMNI 8.1 open project which is unified OS i.e. It can be used on oneplus 3 as well as oneplus 3t.
The second one is the download link to download the latest version of OMNI 8.1 ROM. However, if you use OMNI you will not need this link to update the ROM because OTA updater is inbuilt in OMNI ROM which first download and then flash the latest version.
You can also visit the following link in which all the oreo ROMs, Kernels, Gapps, google camera etc is given. But make sure the particular OS is built for your device. A ROM or firmware of oneplus 3 can brick oneplus 3t if flashed.

Hi gFknQ,
As you probably know I am following your posts a little and saw your switch to GZR Gapps which made me curious.
Although I find the package on the internet, I can not find a description of it.
Why your switch to GZR Gapps and do you know any references on the internet about it?
Which GZR Gapps are you using btw, the zero or the nano package?
Zero seems the same as pico for OpenGapps but is much smaller in size.

I just wanted to ask this too, has anyone tried it yet ? Thanks !
AFAIK the maintainer is the same guy as the maintainer from Pixel Experience. Should be the same three then. Havent tried it but maybe in a week or so will give it a try.

Hi, I had the same problem and a guy on the rom telegram gave me the solution. you have to flash the picosgapps first, watch if it works and install bigger gapps after. It worked the first time for me.

I resolved the problem in an other way. Install ROM,Gapps AND magisk before reboot. I don't know why but Google play needs root on this ROM
have been on this build for some time and I must say that it works well and the battery consumption is good. The update is almost daily through Ota and happens perfectly, I suggest you try it ..
I can't instal 3rd party apps (apk files) in this rom. Anyone facing the same problem? Any solution? Tried installing APKs via flashable zip using twrp, but didn't work. Please help

Question GCam on LineageOS crashes instantly

Hi, I installed Wichaya's GCam APK (Wichaya's 8.1 v1.5 but when I try to open it, it crashes instantly. It doesn't happen with other camera apps. What can I do to fix this?
I think you need to install GCam Services Provider. On Los4MicroG I did not need it, but maybe on stock LOS its needed https://github.com/lukaspieper/Gcam-Services-Provider

This fixed it for me, thank you very much. Pretty strange that when I was searching for a solution, I didn't come across the GCam Services Provider. But thanks again it has been solved now.
