Hey people!

I've just flashed the Stock Rom on my Xiaomi Mi6, so I'm currently using MIUI 11 (Android 9). This phone is non-rooted.

I'm having trouble with C6 Bank app (Brazillian bank app), in the face recognition step of login. Instead of utilizing the front camera as expected, it uses the rear camera, and the image is upside down!

I can't turn the phone upside down, because of the gyro, so the image is always upside down. Turning the phone sideways is not an option as well, because the bank app uses the gyro and it recognizes when the phone is sideways and tells me to "keep the phone straight up".

I've tried everything I could think of: Disabling the cameras with an app called Lens Cap (but it can only disable all cameras), plugging an external camera via USB OTG cable (I think it doesn't work because of power issues)... I've tried filming another screen that has my face on through a webcam, but that didn't work out either, because my camera stinks... As far as I've researched, there's no way to disable the gyro, so that's not an option as well. I'm not going as far as opening my phone and physically disable the camera, because I could mess everything up.

Do you have any other idea?

Thank you for your attention!

What's the banking app you have issue with?

Do you have both apps running simultaneously? I ask this because it isn't possible to use the same camera by several apps simultaneously.

"C6 Bank" a Brazillian bank app.

Nope, I don't have any other app open at the moment.

Thank you for your reply.
