No Camera pop out in WhatsApp Video Calls - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

The camera won't pop up when sitting in a low light environment. Example: I get a WhatsApp video call in my room during the day where the environment light is lower. I can receive the call but the camera won't pop out until I move the phone towards some brighter light. This also occurs if I switch the camera from back to front between the video calls. Is anyone else facing this issue?
Redmi K20 pro 6GB Indian variant
Stock Android 10 ROM
Running MiUI Global 11.0.4 (QFKINXM)
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank You

Never faced such problem.
Try to clear app data of camera and reset whatsapp and try. Could be problem with whatsapp

Slow Camera Capture on Whatsapp

I noticed that my Oneplus 3T camera is very slow at taking picture from Whatsapp. The camera doesn't capture instantly after I press shutter button. There is a noticeable delay after I hear the shutter sound, sometimes up to 2 or 3 seconds! I have tried same Whatsapp version on different phones and they seem to capture instantly after I hear the shutter sound.
However if I am taking picture using camera app there is no delay at all. I am experiencing this problem since the first time I am using this phone.
I am using OxygenOS, rooted, stock kernel/franco kernel (doesn't matter, happens on both kernel).
Is there anyone having this problem? Or is this a known Oxygen OS bug?

Whatsapp Camera issues following Oreo update

Hi Guys
Updated my Moto G5S Plus to Oreo 8.1 a few days ago using the commands on XDA. All is working great however I have an issues with WhatsApp, isolated with its Camera.
When I try to do Video on the Rear camera for video it seems to "zoom" in and I cannot zoom out. Its like jumping to max zoom and getting stuck.
With the front camera it seems to be VERY dark, the preview I see when recording video looks good, however when it plays back before sending its almost 100% dark, as if the light was never on?
Ive tried disabling the default camera, reinstall whatsapp all the usual stuff. I would assume if this was a widespread issue with the Whatsapp or Oreo update there would be more threads on it however I cant find anything.
Anyone else had this issue?

i have this problem too
The problem I have is that messages do not arrive unless I enter the application. The camera thing happened to me only in a couple of occasions where I recorded and it seemed that I had zoomed but it happened to me in the camera application not in wasap.

noise in Pop up camera on k20 pro

I am bringing to notice about a wierd issue with the pop up camera on k20 pro.
Whenever i use the selfie camera ,it's quit and has a gearing sound which can't be heard if you don't listen to it closely and it's normal. But i was testing the fall detection feature of the pop up camera and there i noticed something wierd. Whenever i drop my phone and phone detects fall it retracts the camera as it is supposed to but after retracting it makes a sound which is something like gears jamming with each other. It is audible and doesn't sound normal.
Try it out guys and let me know if this happens with you too.
Perhaps it would be appropriate to indicate also which Rom you are using, on the PE there is a little issue with the frontal camera in switching between video / photo mode, that produce a noise same as yours, in MIUI 10 it works regularly.
Having same issue here
Can anyone is hearing a weird sound in the pop up camera?Just turn off the sound effects and then try to listen to it.Can you hear the same like mine ?
My popup camera produces the same noise.
Any solution? Thanks!

AUDIO DELAY IN VIDEO CAMERA ISSUE

My redmi 9's camera or video recorder sometimes does not sync up the audio and video. It got worse when i updated my phone to miui 12... The audios in the video recorded have a really high tendency to be not in sync and be corrupted.
Am I the only one who's facing this issue? Im using a 3/32 global variant of the redmi 9.
This happens to me too. Unfortunately, I'm not 100% sure of the reason for this issue. But I have two hypotheses:
1.- Maybe it happens because of lack of RAM
2.- Maybe it happens because of the illumination of the site you're recording. I suspect that when I try to record in a low-light environment, the camera automatically reduces its video framerate. When this happens probably, the audio records at a constant framerate, while the video records at a variable framerate, and, in consequence, causing this delay.
But, again. These are just hypotheses of mine. I tried downloading other camera apps, and the result is the same, but when I restart my phone and try to record on a well-illuminated area, I tend to see more fluidness and sync between audio and video.
Note: I'm also using the global version of Redmi 9 (3/32)
A friend of me have same issue with 32/3 gb version and in my opinion its the ram,he rooted and disabled much apps and in devloper settings sets max 4 apps running and then it works for some time,after minutes it start lagging until reboot and new settungs in devlooer options sadly the hardware in this variant is very poor,sadlyCheers!!!

Question Microphone issue when in video call

Anyone managed to find a fix for the microphone issue when in video call? When in video call, other side doesnt hear me very well, they describe it as like I am in a tunnel or under water..
I have the Global version, no 12.5 update yet available.
Does 12.5 fix this?
Does flashing other ROM fixes the issue?
I have even returned 1 unit and exchanged nor another RN10 Pro but same problem with call quality
thanks for any input
