Camera bug on stock rom - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

Before unlocking BL, flashing twrp & custom rom my phone was working all well; but after returning to stock room my phone does not record video only images. Flashing Dolby Atmos solved my problem but I feel it's a temporary or not so real solution. I want that pure stock room feel with no bugs so someone pls help.
I posted this problem earlier but no solution so reposting. Sorry for that.

Buzzing all over again?

Does anyone besides me experience this annoying buzzy noise during using earphones on 30a lollipop? I know this used to be an issue on kitkat and it was fixed with custom kernel, but as far as i know there is no custom lollipop stock kernel for g2 right now. The calling solution works but it's only temporary. Is there any flashable zip / custom sound engine or anything that could fix that ?
Thanks in advance.

No audio after flashing ROM

Ok so here's what happened:
After getting really bored with EMUI I found a custom Lineage OS rom for this P8 so I flashed it with no problems. When I turned up the volume nothing would come out from the speaker. Then I flashed stock EMUI to find out if the ROM was the problem but no, it persisted although I could call and use both speaker for listening but only in calls. So I tried with a custom ROM based on stock EMUI that supported some other things but again there was the same problem. I think I'm the only having this problem because I couldn't find anyone else having this issue so any help will be appreciated
Ok nevermind. I solved in someway...
Alright cool, but how? I'm having the exact same issue.

Rooting and choosing the best/stable combination

Hello everyone, i am new to the scene of the Mi A1, i bought the phone about 1 month ago and have been observing the forums, but i would like to ask some questions the community as i have not yet managed to find clear answers to the forums if someone can help me
1. If i root the phone is there a way to revert back to complete stock and get OTA's again?
2. In custom roms, can i get the stock camera working 100%?
3. Is there any custom rom that you recommend in terms of stability and battery life?
4. Are there any drawbacks to the custom rom scene?
5. Do you recommend the stock rom with a custom kernel or a custom rom altogether?
Thank you in advance for your answers, i hope that this thread might be useful to gather some questions altogether for anyone that might have wondered the same stuff as me
Hello,
1. There is a way to update OTA with magisk, but you will need you use magisk just as systemless, without touching system stuff. Alternative you can have root and just unroot everytime you want to update the ROM or you can manually flash the update... You can try this guide... https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/root-mi-a1-oreo-8-0-disabling-ota-magisk-t3728654
2. Stock camera works in custom ROMs, someone did a port somewhere in this forums... https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/themes/oreo-mia1-stock-rom-camera-app-custom-t3758543
3 and 4. Most of the custom ROMs are based on the same sources, LineageOS was one of the first "stable" ROMs so most of the ROMs are based on it, inheriting all of its bugs (haven't found a critical bug). I've tested a few ROMs and the mosts I liked in terms of battery life and stability are... LineageOS and Pixel Experience, you will need to test them out for yourself.
5. If you want to experience a more "stable" feeling stick to Xiaomi development, the latest stable version is 8.0 (with rumors of 8.1 coming soon). If you want latest Android updates and features go for a 8.1 custom ROM.
In my experience you will need to try all this things on your own, until you find a place where you feel comfortable with your phone. Just read guides on how to recover your phone from a bootloop and you are good to go!
I will answer only question number 4 because the guy above me said everything, by the way I prefer RR.
The drawbacks I found on custom roms are 2 for me...
1) Poor signal reception compared to stock
2) Sound quality is much better in stock compared to custom... (my opinion)
I am itching to root the device but to be honest the only thing i want is android 8.1 and a better battery, other than that i am pretty much satisfied with what i have. (and this is coming from someone that changed rom every other week on previous phones) Thank you for your replies, they were informative and greatly appreciated! I just hope Xiaomi updates the phone soon because it feels kinda outdated for an android one device

Possible reason for no call audio over headset/speaker/handsfree

Hello,
Could someone please help me regarding this, few of us have faced this audio issue after switching to RR and then once we have switched to other rom the call audio was missing. even restoring the complete nandroid backup and going back to stock 316 is not helpful as the problem remains the same. The only way to make it work was to switch to AOSP 9 Roms. I am not getting why this problem is not solving even after complete flash and getting back to stock Rom. I have a 6 GB variant

I had the same issue. Even a nandroid backup of full stock rom couldn't solve the problem. I had to flash the stock rom in fastboot to make it working again :/

Same problem here... Revert back to stock but no luck...
O think I need to flash Asus stock

Audio quality problem on stock oreo

I flashed stock oreo roms on my g5 plus using fastboot and twrp methods. I also tried different versions of it (soak test 1 and october patch).
Each time I flashed the stock oreo rom, I encountered audio issues on music player apps like play music, spotify etc.
When a song played, I could hear a slight buzz as the song was playing, making it seem like the audio file has problems. Happens when I plug in headphones/use speakers.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling those apps and factory reset but nothing seems to fix this.
This does not happen with apps like youtube or the phone app, where the audio is absolutely normal. (with headphones/speakers/earpiece).
I have used custom nougat roms (stock and custom) and custom oreo roms like RR, PE and never faced such an issue with audio quality before.
Can anyone help me identify what the problem is?
please help if possible!
can anyone help?
guys can anybody help me out??

There's most likely no way to figure out why some apps sound normal for you and others don't. A clean flash is always a good advice, if that doesn't help it's most likely a hardware issue (of your device or your audio hardware). I flashed stock Oreo a few days ago, rooted with magisk and flashed viper4android and ainur sauron as modules. The sound is great using Poweramp, YouTube or any other source.
