MIUI / Google Cam

[Taka15]

Good evening.


First of all sorry, for the Noob questions

Have read a lot, but want to assure me again ...

Actually, I want "only" under MIUI (other firmware may come later times), the Google Cam to run, because the photos then look even better than with Stock Cam!


I own a Xiaomi Note 5 (Whyred) with currently MIUI 9.5.13.0 Global.

To install the Google Cam did a Unlock, TWRP started (not flashed), added setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1, and via File Explorer the Arnova8G2-V7.9.5.apk installed.

Google Cam is up and running. My goal is now reached for stand


Now to my questions:


- As of MIUI 9.5.19.0 downgrading is no longer possible, can I still install it? Why would you want to go back to an earlier version?


- If I have another (higher), here eg. Install MIUI Version 9.5.19.0, do I need to install TWRP / setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1 / APK again? Or. do you always have to do that with an update? Or is the cam simply installed and just continue to work?


- Other tips for me when requesting MIUI + Google Cam when upadte MIUI ?


Thank you and have a nice evening !

Hi,,to answer your first question..guys would downgrade if they had issues like battery life or something with new firmware.

For the camera 2 api ..yes,,everytime you update,,you will need to enable it...hope that helps
