Video record not working - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

My video recording suddenly stopped working. I have no idea why it happened. I can take slow motion and time lapse but not regular video. I have also tried other camera app. Google camera crashes. Open camera says failed to record video. Anyone experienced this? Attached is a logcat for anyone to see the problem. Thanks.

Did you solve this issue? It's happening for me as well on Oreo. Logs show errors with audio and video codecs. No difference between rooted and fully stock setup.

I did a clean install of nougat. I could not make it work again so I just rolled back. I'm in oreo stable now and video recording is ok so far.

Damn, I was hoping that I can avoid doing factory reset. I'll wait for a full fastboot ROM and if it won't help, I might do the clean install as well In each case thank you for the answer

I'm not having any issues but after updating to Oreo from Nougat, I did a factory reset as I couldn't use the patched boot image, I had some magisk module that conflicted with Oreo. Now rooted and tested with Google and stock camera, both are recording fine, both set to 4K.

i have magisk installed and oreo in my xiaomi mi a1 and i can't record video or slow motion......i can record time lapse and take photos...
if someone solves this please let me know...

The only known workaround as of now is to use Cinema FV-5 app and change audio codec to AAC-ELD. You can vote for the bug here (click on CONFIRM) http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1449667&page=1

I've just flashed full Oreo ROM from http://en.miui.com/download-333.html and video recording is working again with and without root as well. No need for factory reset.

Me too (after from updating to 8.1 from 8.0). Any solution ?

Solved!
I finally make my mi A1 video recording work again. What I do? Let's see: I installed stock android 8.1 April security, after that I received the OTA November security update from 2018 and after update, I puted my phone in download mode (fastboot), I booted twrp, I erased all data like I install a new ROM. You may see multiple errors, don't worry. Reboot phone to fastboot, re-enter in twrp, format data, wipe everything (microSD and USB otg NO), do also this for slot a or b. After that, flash again you ROM (in my case miui 10 epic room). Then, should work. For me it was working

[SOLVED] Video record Epsy cm9

[Red Lens MB525]
As with all CM9 builds, I still don't have a fully working camcorder on my phone.
I can record videos.. up to 30 seconds.. after that when I stop the recording my phone freezes and Camera force closes.
I've tried with multiple applications..
My install procedure from this morning:
>Wipe Data
>Install CM9 14 July nightly
>Install GApps
>Install TWRP (touchscreen recovery)
>Wipe cache/dalvik
>Reboot
Camera works. Panorama works. Camcorder partially works (up to 30 seconds).
I've even tried wiping camera app data/cache..
Does anyone have a solution? PLEASE!
Phone info if anyone needs..
https://photos-4.dropbox.com/psi/20...00/c3f850d/Screenshot_2012-07-14-16-36-23.png
EDIT: Re-flashed Kernel from HERE then re-installed the nightly. Still displays as the same kernel version, but I managed to save videos of 2 + 3 minutes, however once it reached 4-5+ minutes it force closed again.
I've posted this again, but different. My other thread died with no solution.
Please someone help
Anyone have any idea? :|

[SOLVED]camera records video in 1080p2 or single picture with audio

Solved for me with that boot.img from Silesh.Nair:

XT1642, MM modem, random custom roms
Hello guys, finally I got an error where the snapdragon camera app records video only in slow motion, see Screenshot attached while checking the video on my pc.
That was never before flashing RR 5.8.0 20161208 7.1.1 build,but I don't think it has something to do with it
Temporary workaround:
I figured out it can fixed once I clear dalvik/cache in twrp, boot rom and then record video with snap app.
Open camera crashes(camera hardware is busy cause of usage from others), wasn't before...
But after closing app and waiting some time(seconds minutes) the app only records slow motion. This happens if storage is set to internal or SD card,it's always the same.
What I did already:
-wipe everything, including internal storage, several times
-clean install of cm14.1, 3 different versions including from today. RR 5.8.0 20161126, RR 20161208. Without restoring anything.
-also with @Silesh.Nair additional boot.img for builds before today
Changed sd card from 32 to 64GB
-changed sd card from fat 32 to extfat
Restoring full backup before it happens
-dirty flash several of above roms
-logged the video recording with and without this bug https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4Zy8uoEfFKLbjlYOW5WcW02LXc
But still persists... :crying:
-flashing stock rom is the next step to do
So my questions are:
-anybody seen this before with MM modem?
-any other hints somebody know?
I don't want to upgrade to N soak test for firmware files unless it's the only way! Because downgrade can cause additional problems!
I opened new thread because it's complex problem I though and maybe does nothing have to do with custom roms only...
Thanks in advance!
Till now i haven't recorded anything with my phone, but as your asked, i tried first time to record video on RR-N and my problem is also different than you too, mine is single photo to complete video... Nothing got recorded... Only single photo where from video recording started.... I checked on MOTO CAMERA too.. same on both...
Will see on other ROM...
Edit: I'm also on MM baseband, if anyone on N baseband pls confirm....

Thanks for this information! I see this in my system information for baseband:
As I never flashed another baseband/modem file or M soak test I came to the conclusion, that maybe flashing the provided boot.img from @Silesh.Nair (to bring back Hotspot on RR) messed up my baseband and other firmware files like the camera.
@Silesh.Nair could it be or am I wrong?
Thanks!

My baseband is same as your's, since we both haven't flashed N soak.. nothing related to messed with baseband.. I'm trying other ROM, will see...
---------- Post added at 05:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 AM ----------
Don't know what went wrong with previous setup, now clean flashed again with and without Boot.img also flashed boot.img with CM14.1 worked fine in all cases....
As you said it's slow motion, i have something related to that,
if snap is opened first time after every boot then it's lagging, and video recorded is of lagging images.. for that, close snap and open again.. it will work..!!:good:
Edit:
It worked only for little while after wiping cache..
And then same as before...

I can close snap camera and open it again, but still only 2fps after recording. I need to boot recovery and wipe caches, then after reboot it only works as long as snap camera is open. When I close it once it begins again to record 2fps
Did you have the same baseband as me after flashing other roms? Maybe last thing is flashing stock MM with fastboot?

Yes, same MarshMallow baseband..
As i mentioned my problem in first reply, it get solved by clean flashing, you should try clean flash again..
Oopsie. I have this problem too. Single image, audio has no issues.
Force closing snap doesn't fix things.
I'm on RR, N baseband, latest build. I think the boot.IMG by @Silesh.Nair is the cause here. Is it incorporated into the ROM?
Here's the log, http://pastebin.com/xg7GFvvC
Just after video was taken with Snap and then played on Google Photos.

Sounds weird :silly: I used latest cm14.1 build non oms, clean flash. And here's the problem too.
Actually i restored a backup of RR 20161126 build (every thing was OK on this backup) without the mentioned boot.img but the problem persists(can take some vids, then slow motion again).

I can play the video on smartphone or as you see on my pc. But it is only with 2fps. Sometimes I get what Maddy and others said, it's only a picture with sound. Like a corrupted file
I'm actually testing this behavior on latest Vanir aosp, but at the moment and around 30 videos recorded i can't get this error. All videos are as they should be. But I'm still testing at the moment
Ok, since nearly 24h testing with latest Vanir rom the problem mentioned in op didn't happen anymore.
Only one thing: after recording a video you should close snap camera, reopen and then play the video with link on the left side. If you play it immediately after recording, the gallery app crashes/freezes. You can also close snap camera after recording and open Gallery separately or another viewer app. No matter if video will be saved to sd or internal storage.
I know it's not a solution for the problem, but a workaround for me
Maybe some dev can compare RR/cm14.1 with Vanir and check the difference that can cause this behavior.
If I can help further, I will do it.
Try this boot image on cm.

Works in RR, on Snap!
XT1643, 5.8.0. N modem (latest OTA).
Fails on OpenCamera.
Got some issues with video after flashing last soak on my XT1642. Phone rebooted after launching gallery app (even without trying to play a video), i was still able to shoot videos. I tried to flash many ROMs, some old ones, still same issue. Wiped and formatted almost every partition without success.
Then i decided to flash last MM full firmware, and now it's working like a charm. Dunno what appended here...

Nope, only cm14 and RR then vanir,hence still on MM firmware. But I flashed the provided boot.img in RR 7.1 thread to fix Hotspot issue on latest 7.1.1 RR and the snap bug happen first.
Actually restored backup of 20161226 RR and testing again together with Silesh.Nair's boot.img

Another Nougat update Bug (ze552kl)

Did anybody experienced video lags / intermittent stuttering specially Hd video after N update? The only player that can make videos watchable is MXplayer in SW mode.
I tried wiping cache partition and reinstalling the update via bootloader to no avail. I thought I was lucky because i did not experience any bugs reported by other users but then I discovered this one.
Help?

Nothing changed even after the latest update. The videos are still laggy as hell
Did you upgrade with a factory reset? I didn't and had a weird crashing problem with root explorer (the only problem I had with nougat) that was corrected after I did that. Use Titanium Backup and it's not so bad
How HD are we talking? Like a 5gig file or 500meg?
I factory reset right after I updated and had no problems. You should seriously consider trying that.

I already tried factory resetting ( via recovery) after nougat update. I even reinstalled the update, reformat again, then wipe cache partition to no avail. Even the newest "stability" update did not change it. I never had this problem with M.
I can try and see if I can duplicate the issue you're having, what size video exactly? Is it h264 or h265? I tried a 500meg 720p video and didn't see any issues with it.
So hw and hw+ mode didn't work at all in mxplayer?

Hello,
Did it happen all of a sudden, or?
Do the ringtone/notification/alarm sounds work?
Did you install a specific app?
Did you update something?
Did you try something to fix the issue:
Did you try rebooting?
Wipe cache?
Factory reset?
Flash a factory image?
Downgrade the Android version?
Good luck...

Hey, maybe someone else will come with a better solution. But, if you want to downgrade, you need to unlock your bootloader (it will wipe your data completely, so backup what's important to you). You can find infos on how to unlock your bootloader here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
And flash a factory image from Google. Images and infos regarding flashing can be found here: https://developers.google.com/android/images
Just do a factory reset if you encounter issue. 7.1.2 could conflict with 6.0.1...
Again, wait a little bit before making such radical change. Maybe someone will come with a fix. Sometimes, the solution is right here, but we just don't see it...
Good luck...
Thx mate
If you like to stay stock and use factory image anyway, I would reflash 7.1.2, no need to downgrade, sound works on 7.1.2. if it fails again, then downgrade would be an option .
Maybe it's enough if you reflash the system.img via fastboot.
Haven't noticed any sound issues on 7.1.2. Maybe you have an app installed that doesn't play nice with 7.1.2 and is interfering with the sound drivers, but I don't know how you would find what that could be. You did the obvious and went into settings sound and made sure that all the sound levels were good and that nothing was being muted? You could check the Google support threads and see if anyone is reporting a similar issue or if anyone has any ideas there. I suppose you could also flash a 7.1.1 factory image and see if the issue persists. I'm pretty sure there is a way to boot the 6P up into safe mode, even on pure stock. You could try that and see if the sound problem persists. If not its likely an issue with an app.
thx for answers volks.
Skype video works today,but no sound,viber video call ne work.

Hey,
Reading other users reply, 7.1.2 doesn't seem to be the culprit.
Before flashing a 6.x image, unlock the bootloader and try reflashing the 7.1.2 factory image. You can still downgrade afterward... :good:
Good luck...

Video recording not working on custom roms (Redmi note 7 lavender)

Hello everybody. I have a issue that is litterally making me go crazy. Basically, on every custom rom i've tried so far (Pixel experience both normal and plus, HavocOS, CRDROID, every one of them in their latest versions) video recording through any kind of camera app doesn't work, except for the ANXCamera_Unity_157, where the video recording works, in a very smooth way, but it has a bad video quality, looking like it has a very low bitrate. I unlbocked the bootloader while i was on miui 11.04 global, i wiped everything and formatted DATA through OrangeFox recovery, i'm saying this because i saw that nobody has wiped out the Internal Storage during a custom rom installation. Thanks in advance.
--UPATE--
I tried to flash the miui 10.3.10 through fastboot, and the camera didn't work at all at first, then it asked for permissions and started working, however i still can't record any videos, except for short videos. I tested the hardware and the hardware is okay. Before this i tried to restore a backup that i made on orangefox before any rom flash, and the backup doesn't work. I tried to flash the miui 11.04 global (the rom i had at the beginning of everything) from the recovery, and camera didn't work completely, along the wifi connection (i open the wifi, click on "activate" and it stalles, then turns itself off and makes the phone laggy) i don't completely know what to do, i've been searching for fixes for a bit now and it looks like i'm the only one on the entire world who has this issue. I do really need some help or at least an advice or something
--UPDATE (FINAL)--
While i was too concerned about the video recording i didn't notice that there wasn't a single sensor that was working, so i figured out that the persist partion was corrupted. I fixed everything, video recording included, just by flashing the stock MIUI (11.05) through Fastboot, and then, from the same .tgz file (the fastboot flashable rom, you can find that if you search on the internet), i took the persist.img and flashed it using orangefox recovery, and it's done, i fixed that.
