Is it normal that the viewfinder lags?
I'm guessing it's because MediaTek

A bit laggy than original camera app,
But barely noticable for me.

Disabling miui battery saver might help a little bit.

ps.
i've use modded thermal.conf, posted on another thread. I think this also make my phone feels faster, because more relaxed thermal throttling.

After restarting, it became less laggy than before, but still noticeable (at least for me).

And I don't have battery saver active.

But it's still good nonetheless. Been taking pictures with it and came out nice. Might have to look into modded thermal.conf next.

Thanks for the info/reply Kevin!

Only portrait photos seems to be saved, all the other photos captured are visible from the viewfinder but when I open them they disappear.

Try clear data before opening app.
Then load config.
I don't face any photo saving problems.

Also there is no problem reported from other users.

Tried after clearing data, still same issue, photos from main camera saves 1/3 times, wide angle works always and front camera hasn't worked once.

I had this problem too, and I think it has to do with the fact that it takes time to process hdr+ and the phone can't handle more than one picture at once. I'd recommend either changing to normal hdr or waiting between pictures.

 

[kevin168]

Actually i always wait 2-3sec before taking next picture.

-Try switch off Hexagon DSP
-Try to change "input model"
From "Auto" to "DefaultLite" or "RedmiNote"

Restart app before test it.

Need to find better settings for more reliable perfomance.

My first impressions are:
- Viewfinder feels less laggy, not as smooth as stock camera tho
- HDR+ processing is faster, taking half the time.
- Spheric/360 mode now works (before pictures weren't saved)
- I still get problems with night mode, camera app closes and pictures aren't saved

The main con I found is that color reproduction seems a bit off, with some blown out colors instead of the more realistic ones that I got with v.2

Overall, it's great if you value speed, but I still prefer v. 2. Thank you for your work, is greatly appreciated!
