Hello,
Are there any Pie based roms for Redmi 4X which do not have problems with Facebook app? It stutters like crazy while scrolling. Some stutter may be seen in Playstore also. No such thing happens on Oreo based roms.
Turn off auto video play, reduce image quality to medium. Its none of rom or kenel's fault. Its a app which isnt optimised for smooth scrolling.

I always turn off auto play. How does it happen that this app is "not optimised" for smooth scrolling while on Oreo based roms it works great?
Try CAF roms, they are already faster and smoother...
Where are the CAF roms listed please ?

I will answer myself: LineageOS 16, new builds. Facebook app somehow becomes "optimised" on those ROMs like someone said. <sarcasm> Of course it can't be rom or kernel fault </sarcasm>.

Hi there,
I read several times that the vendor camera apps of android devices would be much better than 3rd party camera apps. The original camera apps usually don't run on custom roms.
Those who have compared the camera apps: Is it true for this device that Samsung's camera app takes better pictures and videos or don't you see any difference? What about focus times (i.e. the time needed to take a picture)?
Best regards!
Both in left side are taken by MagmaNX rom, and both in right side are taken by S7e darklord rom, i didn't see which best
..
AOSP ROMs tend to have worse camera quality than TouchWiz based ROMs. This is because Samsung made their camera APIs closed sourced, which means that AOSP has to use worse APIs
It's the software processing that makes a difference. The camera hardware remains the same on any ROM.
There are some camera apps that use their own software processing. Don't ask me the names, cause I don't remember them.
I have a Samsung s4 i9506 . I want up date android 6.0 please help me
I can't say I've tried all cameras, but my opinion is that stock camera is faster and better than most. Stock camera would be even better if it had more settings, it is lacking a bit there.
I also use Camera FV-5, Open Camera, A Better Camera, ProCapture, CameraPro, I have used them for years but most of the time I just want to snap a good photo fast and stock camera delivers. Better for video as well, with working pause and snapshot.
At the moment I'm running 5.01 with Note 3 camera (4K video and 60fps at 1920x1080), but I'm thinking of trying some custom touchwiz based marshmallow ROM again. Could not get 60pfs @ 1920x1080 to work with any of the Lineage OS based Nougat ROMs I've tried. (I think 4K video worked though, with 3rd party camera). If I could get 60pfs video recording working I'd switch to crdroid or something else immediately even if I lost stock camera.

Do you know any touchwiz based marshmallow rom that works without problems?
I only found this one, but it says NFC would not work:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...6-0-1-touchwiz-marshmallow-galaxy-s4-t3358700
I still find 5.0.1 runs smoother than any 6.0.1 ROM I tried... tried a couple of S7 Edge, Note 7 etc. ported ROMs... but 5.0.1 (Jumbo ROM) is very smooth for me. Also nice that the Note 3 camera (4k and 1080p60) works flawlessly on it

After reading your post I decided after months of testing newest roms to go back to stock 5.0.1. Camera performance, focus speed, HDR, full HD 60 fps, 4K recording (note 3 mod) everything with this camera is so much better. So I was searching for solution and found it. You can use stock lollipop camera and have latest custom rom installed separetly.
Solution is in dual rom boot that i9506 supports https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447534 . So I installed DeHAWK 5.0.1 slim rom, and removed all apps that could be removed. I only want this rom to be used as camera rom only. My idea was to boot it as fast as passible. As a second rom I installed LineageOS 14.1. So I get the latest and gratest features of android os, and I can use samsung original camera app whenewer I want.
Only problem with this approach is that you need to restart os every time you want to use samsung camera which takes 50 seconds. It's not such a big dealbreaker if you cant live withoit it. It takes 20 seconds to shut down Lineage rom and 30 to boot DeHAWK rom. If someone has idea of speeding up shutdown or boot that would be great.
Other benefits, Samsung camera and gallery loads super fast. No delays. It must be because rom is clean with nothing to slow it down.
Few days ago, I had the opportunity to compare two S4s side by side, one with LOS official and one with stock rom. Gosh, the difference is dramatic
The pictures of the stock camera are much much better.
@tforgo: Thanks for your idea with dual boot. However, I need the camera instantly and cannot wait 50 seconds. But it is a good solution for people that have time taking pictures.
Hello friends from XDA, i bought a LeEco Le S3 x522 version and im currently waiting for it, but reading the custom rom section, i noticed the fact that you cannot record on 4K or take photos greater than 12Mp with any Nougat custom rom, to sum up, i want that you post some photos taken using the Footej camera app on 12Mp and the same photo but using the stock camera at 16Mp, im specially interested on close-ups or macro photography, and based on that i will decide neither to stick to EUI or change to Nougat.
I dont mind to lose some pixels(at least until a fix appears) if i can focus properly, even if its only at 12Mp
Thanks in advance for helping and i hope to see your photos and also i will upload my own once it arrives!
I will be receiving the phone this monday, will share some pictures, im so glad with the support to my thread.

If you want to stay on a google security level from before a thousand years, please use eui... and have a little better stock cam concerning low light pictures.
If you want custom and good camera options, choose Los13. Open Camera is best if you care about settings and footej is best for out of the box use. I don' t like stock snapdragon there. If I zoom into pictures they seem to be not so sharp.
If you like half the cores of your cpu going to sleep all the time if you are unrooted you can choose any nougat rom and use footej camera which makes very good pictures also without 4k, which is the ONLY stable camera app there. Users and developers here like to tell that camera is completely stable after almost every release of Los 14, but that was never true four times I tried a nougat rom (last time three weeks ago), maybe it was true for footej, but I need open camera at least.
People also liked small eui in the past, I didn't read the thread for while, maybe this can be s.th. for you too.
Also I would like to tell you that people here like to answer your threads if you have a real and new problem.... and not really for fun discussions or what this should be, so don't bother
Unfortunately if you want stable you will need to use stock EUI. The camera has been screwed up on Lineage based roms forever and there is no real fix for this yet.

Nope
bootloader 19s + Los13 + overload kernel v2.0 = no problems

Can you actually record 4k video 100% of the time? Do your camera apps launch perfectly everytime and the flashlight works no problem? I've tried so many combinations of kernels and roms I give up on lineage. The camera issue and half the cores not working are not worth the headache.

I've noticed this because I switch roms frequently, I had to record a slow motion video but on the MIUI rom there is no sound!
There is it with the google camera in LineageOS...Wtf.... Is this supposed to be a feature or a bug? I will never switch to MIUI once again, that's ridiculus

oh, Well last i was on lineage like when 14.1 was newest and there was no 8.0 rom so i dont remember much ;D
That is by design, so it's a feature. I use google camera for that, though (it has sound). Luckily if I want slow motion in google camera to work, it requires media_profiles.xml that will break video functionality of MIUI camera.

Yes, I experienced that, so I decided to use just LineageOS instead. Also for Camera2API
Is anyone facing problems with Stories videos? Whenever I try to upload a video, from my gallery, the video lags SO MUCH...
And if I try to record a video directly in Instagram app, the video lags EVEN MORE.
The experience with this social network, in a whole, is a little bit crappy, with the Mi A2...
It's so sad, because I really love this phone, specially the camera.
Well, is anyone facing the same problem? Is there any fix?
Thanks in advance! <3
Same problem, only with GBintsa stories work fine
Same problem, but only video story.
I also have this issue and always had it with every Android smartphone I ever owned. I investigated a bit on the internet and read somewhere that Instagram handles the Android camera API in a ****ty way. I'm no expert but seemingly the difference is that iPhone always uses the same API or just some different version because there are not many models on Android however there are probably more than 1000 different camera APIs because there is a much bigger variety of models. In short: Instagram on Android is not very well optimized.
I had the same issue with my MI A2 i fixed it buy installing a previous version of the instagram app I had the go like 10 vesrion before to get it right though and i lost the gif feature in messages but let's hope the update wont have the same problem.
Instagram beta works fine for me
Edit: NO IT'S NOT!!
Also recording from stock camera app in 1080p 60fps and then posting as story is fine
I also had this kind of issue, which is also present in older device like Redmi Note 4 in MIUI. I don't know what make its bugged tho

You have to think that you don't have an iphone, and you don't record smooth video on instagram app. Record on camera app and share it on your story.
Also photos you sent on instagram are in very tiny resolution (dm)

Yes I know...
I think this is a decoder related thing.. because screenshots look bad, but photos taken from camera looks good. Any video other than 1080p 60 fps from stock camera looks stuttering; but it also has very bad sound quality... That's really fuktup xiaomi..

The problem with the sound program will solve Cinema FV-5.
Go to the sound settings and put a tick on the Disable Audio Automatic gain Control (AGC). The sound starts being processed by the application's algorithms.

Instagram stories are smooth on my mi a2 running android P with the latest instagram update. Last time i was on android 8.1, the latest version of instagram has the choppy stories problem. Try updating to android P.
It's been months and still my stories are 15 fps.... what a joke...
This crap needs to get fixed. No matter which account I the video is choppy/laggy. If i shoot video inside the app the review looks good. once it uploads it's laggy. If I save the video to my phone... it's choppy. If i have a video already on my phone and I upload it to stories to the normal feed... it's choppy AF.
I'm on 8.1 oreo with RAW enabled. This suuuucks
Can someone confirm that the videos are better or smoother in Android P?

YESS this also happened to me, im using redmi note 5 rn and the current rom is in miui 10 global stable
The solution is to install the older version of instagram. I'm from Brazil and I found this solution, if you want to solve it and see everything fast again use this version here: 51.0.0.20.85
Search google to download ...
Do not upgrade to the newer version, if it does not come back all over again.
Guys! I found the solution!! Try to use the
H.265/HEVC codec.

How can i do this?
I made a short video to show the problem: youtube.com/watch?v=zHTiiJTL2JU
A lot of Xiaomi Smartphones have very bad performance when it comes to video encoding (e.g. Instagram Video Stories, Adobe Premiere).
Interesting fact: If you upload the exact same video file with different phones, the result is not the same.
Uploading Video Stories on Instagram with a Mi 9 ends up in a desaster. The input file with 30 fps will be shown with 15 fps for no reason.
The same file uploaded with a Huawei P9 Light works.
So what's the problem here? Instagram is using a bad encoding profile for Xiaomi Phones?
Who could fix this? Xiaomi? Google? Android? Instagram?
Any Ideas?
I tried to contact Xiaomi, but they're not interested in fixing this problem.
For instagram users, Xiaomi Phones are not useable right now :-/

Hm :-/ It's a brand new smartphone. Always a bad feeling flashing it.
What I've seen so far, many things don't work with GSI Rom.
But thanks for your quick reply
The only thing that doesn't work on GSI at the moment is FP on always on display, and that it's a little bit less reliable in my opinion.
By the way, it might just be a problem with media profiles

FP always on is not important to me.
Sorry I'm a noob! But, there is no chance to change "media profiles" with Xiaoimi stock Rom, right?
Anyways, wich ROM exactly could you recommend? Maybe I'll give it a try.
