Google Modded Camera; It works, but it doesn't.

I have 2 Xiaomi Redmi 4x's at home with the same Xiaomi.eu rom, same recovery, same kernel, same version.
I flashed the same ZIP to enable Camera2API through Magisk. And then I installed the same GCam on both devices.
I even installed a few Camera2Api check apps from the playstore and both report the same results.
Result:
It works on one of the devices but it keeps crashing on the other.
I've tried reinstalling, reflashing Camera2API zip, but all without result.
Any idea's.? (I'll post a screenshot of the crash log later on)
Rom: Latest Xiaomi.eu rom.
Magisk: 14.5 Beta
Recovery: Latest official TWRP
Kernel: Stock

But ... it's the same phone, same specs, same model, same rom, same everything. Why does it works for one and not the other?

Use this, 101% working guide. Thank me later

What's up with persist partition/broken sensors?

I read that flashing custom ROMs will mess up this partition and some sensors will stop working. Why do sensors depend on a empty partition??
I experienced this myself after flashing MIUI 8.5 with TWRP.
Then I had to flash MIUI 9.1.1 dev and the sensors started working again.
I want to flash more stuff, because MIUI sucks - the notification system is a huge mess and Volte is not working ...but how can I prevent stuff from breaking again?

I've flashed different versions if MIUI, audio mods and various other crap and I've never experienced this problem...

Well, if you want to try it yourself here is what I did:
- had MIUI 8.2..something initially
- upgraded through OTA to MIUI 9
- unlocked, installed TWRP and rooted
- backed up MIUI 9 and flashed RR with TWRP
- backed up RR and restored MIUI 9 with TWRP, sensors still worked
- flashed MIUI 8.5 with TWRP, sensors stopped working (compass)
- restored MIUI 9 with TWRP, sensors were still not working
- searched google and followed steps here http://en.miui.com/thread-478922-1-1.html
- flashed MIUI 9 dev version in EDL mode, sensors working again
- installed TWRP and rooted again
- flashed RR and Gapps with TWRP, sensors still working yey
so now I'm on RR and it's good, but what if I want to back it up, flash something else and restore it later?
i really don't want to deal with that sensor stuff again

Btw, what is the size of your persist partition? I noticed that the image file from MIUI 9 dev is 4 MB, but in TWRP my persist partition shows 0 MB. And after flashing RR and Gapps it increased to 1 MB.

Missing fingerprint sensor options (again)

Okay, I'm convinced that most of people that are able to help me are already familiar with this problem.
It occured when I've attempted to OTA upgrade my firmware (it was one of MIUI 9 stable versions) as I
have only used OTA before. However I had TWRP (mrraines version) installed and also magisk root
(everything from tutorial on xda, in order to install gcam).
So when I tried to OTA upgrade it stopped almost immediately after beginning with failure message and
fingerprint sensor options dissapeared.
I have an International version of MI MIX.
Since then I have tried:
-full wipe + MIUI 10 global (OAHMIHF) flash (via mrraines TWRP) - it didn't work (error 7)
-MIUI 10 global (OAHMIHF) flash via fastboot (didn't help)
-MIUI 10 global (OAHMIHF) flash via fastboot + newest global firmware (8.12.20) + reverse order
-MIUI 10 global (OAHMIHF) via TWRP (the new version with working decryption) found in this topic:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...y-official-twrp-xiaomi-mi-mix-t3498960/page67
-reflash same firmware for non-global version
-full wipe + MIUI 10 from xiaomi.eu (OAHCNFK) via the same TWRP + non-global firmware (in this exact order)
-after reading this topic: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/how-to/miui-9-stable-magisk-xposed-t3705951
I have flashed firmware advised there (8.8.3)
-of course I have tried changing pin/unlock pattern resetting, hard reboots and so on
Right now I'm about to try reflashing the same firmware and MIUI 10.2.1 afterwards. Then perhaps developer version.
I also have full recovery from before upgrade, however it was made after I've attempted to OTA upgrade and failed.
In diagnostic options self test is "FAILED!" and checkerboard test is: "NO RESPONSE FROM SENSOR!"
Aida64 recognizes sensor as FPC.
Can it be related to something I have not yet reflashed? I can't live without fp sensor
Please help!

Okay I have found information that fp sensor problems are caused by persist partition.
However flashing China stable 10.1 in EDL mode didn't fix the issue.
Could anyone post a file for fp sensor that is located in persist partition so I would replace mine?
Thanks in advance

[SOLVED] Issues after MIUI 11 to MIUI 10 Downgrade on K20 Pro

Hi All,
I unlocked bootloader and was able to successfully flash Fastboot v10.3.3 ROM of my region (India) using MI flash tool. After flash front camera stopped working and phone was asking to calibrate but was failing to do so. Then I did OTA v10.3.5 upgrade and the camera issue was not more present. But there are some issues which are very irritating:
1. Gyroscope wont work in PUBGM. Previously it was working in MIUI 11 but since downgrade it is not working (both 10.3.3 and 10.3.5 versions). I checked the gyroscope values using CIT tool and there seems to be no issue. In PUBGM crosshair moves on its own in any random direction, sometimes it moves towards ground and sometimes it moves left slowly. Even VR videos are no longer working.
2. Camera app video recording is very laggy. The recording process and recorded video are very laggy (5-10 frames per second) using default setting.
Other sensors are working fine like compass, GPS and accelerometer(phone UI rotation is working fine).
Kindly help me please.

Ok thanks, I will do a fresh flash of v10.3.5 through MIFlash and then boot into TWRP and write persist.img.
Is it possible to boot temporarily like following?
fastboot boot twrp.img
in order to write persist.img

Don't do this please .
From what I know your phone is L1 widevine certified. If you flash persist img from fastboot rom You will lost L1 and downgrade to L3.This will affect your resolution in Netflix and others !!!

[SM-T507,T500,T505] Samsung Galaxy Tab Android 13 custom rom and twrp (it's actually gsi rom, that's how I wrote it for those who don't know gsi rom)

Let the sm-t505 directly apply what it says about it
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ashing-guide-updated-android-13-gsis.4423297/
hello to all of you, the special rom (gsi rom) that you have been waiting for a long time has arrived.
note: custom rom is full port action, gsi rom is just to install system and sm-t500 sm-t505 and sm-t507 all gsi roms and twrp are compatible with each other
i will show you how to install gsi rom
1-) download original software latest version (one ui 4) from here
Sm-t507 link: https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-T507/TUR
Sm-t500 link : https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-T500
2-) Unlock your device's bootloader from the link I gave and create magisk root and flash it from od (it will be out of warranty)
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...4-unlock-bootloader-root-with-magisk.4185993/
it may say sm-t500 or sm-t505 there, but sm-t507 is also compatible and apply magisk root to your own software, not the software written there
3-) if root is installed download sm-t500 twrp from here sm-t507 and sm-t505 are also compatible
4-) Do all the gsi installation instructions in the link I will give and use the only gsi I said, the others are likely to not work
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ashing-guide-updated-android-13-gsis.4423297/
the gsi I recommend and their links
1-) lineage os gsi 19x no restart but brightness correction magisk module is required
link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/an...IAL-arm64_bgN-vndklite-secure.img.xz/download
2-) lineageos 20 td restarts every minute restart corrector + brightness corrector solved with magisk module
Link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/an...IAL-arm64_bgN-vndklite-secure.img.xz/download
3-) the best and most perfect pixel experience rom automatically restarts, restart corrector and brightness corrector solved with magisk module, just install the slim version
Link: https://github.com/ponces/treble_build_pe/releases
4-) our most feature gsi rom, evolution x, is not very stable, we hope it will be fixed in the new update, it will restart automatically, restart blocker and brightness regulator magisk module is required, install the slim version or it will not be installed
Link: https://github.com/ponces/treble_build_evo/releases
5-) It is almost the same as aosp lineageos 19, only the brightness cannot be fixed and magisk cannot be installed, it has an internal root, install the vndklite gapps version, if magisk and brightness are required, the vndklite gapps secure version will automatically restart and the installation will be solved with the magisk module
Link: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases
6-) google gsi is the most perfect but least featured gsi no magisk module needed, not even magisk needed install arm64 + gms version
Link: https://developer.android.com/topic/generic-system-image/releases
7-) one ui 5 nippon
problems
samsung camera not working use other camera apps
developer options freezes flash the following 2 magisk modules
If you touch the screen on the lock screen before it is fully opened, wait for it to turn off again (it will not freeze if there is no password)
big icon and big keyboard (only tablet like this)
No charging animation when device is off (like lineageos gsi)
freezing on heavy games
samsung tablet search not working
sometimes boot problem when installing magisk module flash the magisk module below
Note:
workaround: if a screen says the device is locked, turn off the screen a few times and turn it on again if it doesn't work, restart it

only valid for sm-t507: When installing magisk boot and vbmeta, which I have prepared for those who cannot root, add it to the home csc section while installing the software from odin, choose either one and install it. If you want to install vbmeta, there is a separate link.
note: twrp won't work without vbmeta

hello finally one ui 5 gsi debload version is out I tested it today it really worked
old one was not working because other users changed nippon gsi (no vendor relevance)
Most of the apps in this gsi have been removed, galaxy store samsung camera and many more apps have been removed
no boot loops all features are working now i'm using one ui 5 it's pretty fast
problems
When Magisk installs a module, the phone stays on a locked screen and does not recover. Do not install a Magisk module!
eye shield not working
sometimes developer options not working issue (I accidentally fixed this issue but I don't know how I fixed it)
big icon and big keyboard (only tablet like this)
note: if a screen says the device is locked, turn off the screen a few times and turn it on again if it doesn't work, restart it (this method will not work if you use magisk module)

I already have Pixel EX 20 installed, but don't like the Pixel launcher. What do I need to do to install this one instead? Just wipe factory reset, flash this ROM and Magisk?

This worked.
HINT: For those who, like me, have a hard time using magisk to flash the watchdog and brightness fix zip, when you first boot the ROM, keep the USB cable plugged in and be ready to hold the power and vol up button as soon as the screen blanks. This will boot back into TWRP and you can flash the zip from there.
