i heard that the camera should be fine on 8.0 but it seems to be slim pickings for oreo support these days.ive tried mostly pie roms on this phone, theres a problem with camera with all of them. ive been using lineage 15.1 oreo and the camera gives almost the same amount of issues. so i guess my question is the camera just going to always give me an issue no matter the version? the lineage oreo also has been noticeably slower than the pie version

Which xiaomi port? And when you say original, do you mean stock?

The bluetooth has been working fine for me but I rarely use it. Camera has been a consistent issue

Heyyo, Google camera mods have been kinda touchy on S2, but luckily nullby has made s2 specific gcam mod ports.

As for custom ROM support for these? You'll need either a custom ROM that has selinux enforcing policies for it like LineageOS 16.0 (which I did a crapload of work on to ensure nullby gcam mods would work perfectly on with selinux enforcing) or any other ROM port based on LOS 16.0 selinux enforcing trees. Otherwise? Any custom ROM that is selinux permissive.

I recently flashed miui and am really liking it. Enough people don't talk about the port for some reason, maybe they don't like the skin perhaps? It's been the best rom I've tried from what I remember

Which v of MIUI port r u using?
How's the Battery SOT, Stand-by Stats & GCam compared to MIUI stock Cam?
I previously ran ROS MIUI 9.3.21 ROM only to find the Camera crash while trying to take photo and Video call in WhatsApp.
Now I'm on EUI 6.0.030 by Cuoco92 & it's fine. But I'm looking for a good & stable MIUI ROM without crashes but with decent Battery stats and Camera system...
Thanks...
