After messing around a bit wondering why I coundnt enable Api2 in Miui10. I found out that Xiaomi removed the line in build.prop so I added the line and it works like a charm.

I went to /system/build.prop (trough ES file explorer) and added the following line at the end.


persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1


Reboot, install the APK and you're ready to go.
PS: Miui10 still works :D

Is this a joke? There's a 1 year old, 55 pages long, thread about gcam, how to install it and which one is the best version though developing from bsg and arnova. This seem useless to me

Wow...
Ehm, How old is Miui10?
Sorry, I was just trying to help. Please be toxic somewhere else ;)
Flashing Api2 through Magisk didn't work for me so I thought I would be nice to show how I did it.
Sorry for trying to help...
Have a nice day

Lol, that's the way to enable camera API 2 since the mix 2 release, it's not a MIUI 10 new exclusive method like you're pretending in this post. There's 4/5 modules you can use to enable API2 via magisk, if one has not worked for you doesn't mean you cannot do it....

It's just a matter of being objective
