This looks interesting!! How was the camera quality of roms like this? I realise that we'd lose features but camera quality usually is lost when using camera apps other than the stock ones?

*UPDATE - just watched this video and see that they managed to port the stock camera - amazing!

I would LOVE to have rooted resurrection remix with stock Mate 20 pro camera - REALLY hope this is possible and will be eagerly awaiting/watching this thread...

unfortunately I talked to them and do not want to know they do not even support p20 pro ... boh not because a project that is called openkirin does not need to support devices with kirin

Oh now that is a shame.

I would love to see this! But at the very least, root/Magisk would be great

I have tried openkirin on the Mate 20 Pro.

My Learnings for OMNIROM Beta 3:
- Rom is stable and very usable
- Camera Software is same as original
- Fingerprint does not work properly
- IR Facescanning does not work properly (normal camera face scan works)
- ROM seems prerooted - at least root checks detect Manipulation

Confirm..

My OMNI Beta 3 has sound

Just wondering if the original usb-c earphone that came with the phone works in Omni beta 3? It wasnt working on RR beta 1.
Thank you!

No it's not. I also noticed autofocus in the stock camera app didn't work as well as it did in factory firmware. Had to close it and open it for it to focus.

How is beta 5?
I'm thinking about buying this device but I don't like EMUI

OpenKirin confirmed to be much behind regular stock, so probably not worth effort spent on even trying.

That sucks. Thanks for the information tho:good:

Resurrection remix was awesome except that stock camera was not up-to-date(expected) and fingerprint/face ID don't work properly.
