One morning Gcam was working fine and the same day after a few hours it started crashing. Camera2api disabled. This has happened a couple of times after I have unlocked my bootloader officially and accidentally.

Got fixed automatically

Auto Focus not working after 2.0.2

Hi,
Has anyone have a problem with the Laser AutoFocus not working at all
after upgrading to V2.0.2?
2.0.2 was upgraded.using OTA.
Mines not working either..
Did you try anything to get the auto focus back working, cause I tried resetting the phone , wiping the cache, data reinstalling , trying 3rd party camera apps but nothing is making it work again.
Lodged a complaint with customer support, they said they will try a remote reset and put the OS again
, but they are very slow in getting back...
If it still doesnt work then surely time to get a replacement.

Pls keep us updated and if they provide you with a Zip to fix the issue, kindly share, I know someone who is annoyed with this issue.
Mine does seem to work.. Stock camera, stock O2OS 2.0.2.
Can someone try this whose Auto Focus is working fine in V2.0.2
Dial *#808#
and go to Laser Focus
In that there is Focal Test
Please press that and tell me what is the result of that, mine says " Developing" on the screen
and does nothing more...

Developing for me too.
Today OnePlus tech support remote logged into my phone and wiped it clean and reflashed OS 2.0.2 new
still Auto Focus wouldnt work, then they suggest me to take it to their service centre, I went to their service centre today, technician checked it and said its a hardware problem and that they will order a new camera module and replace it in 3-4 days on the same phone.
So anyone who has 2..0.2 and their auto focus doesnt work then its probably a hardware problem and not software related.
Guys how do I check if it's working or not from the cam app?
How to check? I'm not using my camera always. Thanks
Developing on my end as well.

Open your camera app and you will see a small laser dot under your camera lense
I tried and I have the IR. I tried to get a picture in a mirror

Thats bad news, but wonder if its hardware issue then why after updating to 2.0.2 it occured suddenly and worked perfectly before updating.

It's most probably just a bug in the software, and the dude at the service centre wanted to make some money off of unknowing people.
i can see the light but how can i check if it works by the output picture?
Same issue, autofocus doesn't work anymore, it crackles sometimes when I shoot, result is blurry pictures.
Ticket created with OnePlus support.
Wipe cache & data: same result
Try another camera app (Camera FV-5): same result

Need a new rom

Hello, I'm searching a rom based on android 7.x, i've tried rr 5.8.3 but i had the fp problem and battery drain, all other roms 7 have fp problem. I want a good rom with no battery drain and fp working. if there isn't one ,link me a good rom 6.0
On next day should be released miui 9 dev for our device. Keep an eye on this thread https://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/miui-weekly-rom-releases.103/
Any update?
I can't say for sure about FP since all the recent Nougat roms have worked fine for me regarding FP.
I would recommend LOS from 28/8 for the battery alone. It's pretty close to MIUI:

My initial tests with LOS 28/8 were great, but there is a bug with the stock camera app. When recording video at night the recording is very dark and has some artifacts. I was able to get around this using Bacon Camera (Open Camera and Footej Camera also work). Other than that I haven't noticed any bug except for compass being out of whack, but I'm sure it'll be fixed soon.
No reason to be scared though, if you backup in TWRP you can always roll back.

I have not tried the fix for USB notifications, but the auto-brightness one works just fine. Do you have the post on 4pda regarding USB notifications fix? Would like to read up on it before I flash it.

Both fixes are bootimages, so they cannot be installed together. I guess the later fix (brightness) already contains the charging notification fix.
I think I have a good Lineage build based on other guys' sources. I'm testing it for a couple of weeks - no reboots, all the bugs seem to be fixed, battery lasts for about 2 days for me. Drop me a message if interested - if there will be a decent demand, I'll publish my build... and may be ResurrectionRemix.

Fingerprint issue

I am using Max pro m1 since 1 month and I face this issue where the fingerprint doesn't respond at all , It's doesn't even vibrate to acknowledge the failed recognition , I need to tap twice or more for it to know that I place a finger on the sensor and then it recognises.
I am on the latest build to date
1805.316 -> released on 12 July 2018

Known issue. Try tapping it with a slightly more force on the first try itself instead of just touching it lightly.
You will then get used to it after a few times.

Ya , that's working.
Is it due to a cheap sensor , or software stuggling to render accuracy?
Thanks for the reply mate !

Asus zenfone max pro m1 Fingerprint Sensor Issue Solved
The issue is happened to me. Like in this issue i can't be able to use fingerprint sensor and do all the stuff to get rid of this. I even deleted all the fingerprint and after this i can't be able to add new fingerprint. But know from this trick i applied it's all solved. It's that you just have to restart your device and it all works fine. Yaa seriously.. Thankyou..
Yeah i too faced the issue. On day 1 itself after sometime my fingerprint sensor was not at all responding. I had to manually enter password to unlock. I deleted all my fingerprints. Restarted and added newly. Now Day 3 so far no problem with unlocking.
Me also faced this problem in 6gb 318 firmware
After restart working fine.

July update

New update
141.9 Mb
anyone tried it yet? any bugs or improvements??
No bugs.... Completed the update successfully just now..
Screen Rotation animation bug, nothing more
Successfully updated, no drastic changes or improvements at all. Overall experience & speed is pretty much the same as the previous update which means phone is pretty snappy.
There's just a little bug with screen rotation animation when rotating from horizontal to vertical which makes the bottom half of display to go black when doing so, but the rotation works normal.
Sadly there's no sign of camera2API or ARCore again! I'm gonna be pretty honest with you that I'm exhausted asking Xiaomi on their Twitter for those features. But maybe we can get a shot with a huge disappointing phone called " Xiaomi Mi A3" which many consider to be a downgrade. We'll see how that works.
The update wiped my google contacts of around 200. Thought it was a sync problem so I turned it off and on again,nothing happens. Deleted my google account and login again,same result. Then did a restore from google and guess what, restored just about 50 only. Checked my other device and the contacts weren't in sync for about a month,got around 200 contacts. After I sync from the old device,the number of contacts goes down to around 50. Had to save those contacts from individual chats on WhatsApp slowly. Guess this only happened to me. There's a rotation problem as the others had stated but no biggie.
Updated it successfully. Removed the sim card before restarting after installing the update (just to be safe, as pointed out in other blogs).
Can confirm that the screen rotation bug is there. The bottom half becomes black during rotation from horizontal to vertical, not at all bothering though.
Call logs bugs
i lost my called numbers after update
thank god that i have backup via G cloud
Anyone facing GPS issues? GPS not locking on correct position after June updated.. hoped July update would fix it..but nothing happened.
I've recently completed the update, the rotation lag is new... The emmc bus is still there, the phone crashes after moving a file (large size) crashes the UI and restarts the phone... Again the new bug is that I can't place conference calls, the UI hangs whole merging two calls and have to restart the phone.
After each update we're getting new and new bugs.
I know this is a long shot but can anyone with the July update check Widevine certification ? Is it still L3 or (hopefully) L1 ?
L3 unlocked BL

AR not working

I attempted to use AR but every app I have installed keeps telling me the OnePlus 8 Pro it is not supported. I have uninstalled arcore, I have also updated arcore to the latest version. I keep being told arcore is not functioning and in other apps I keep getting told the device is not supported.
I've also been experiencing issues with ARCore on my OnePlus 8 Pro, but not exactly the same as you describe it. On my OnePlus 8 Pro, ARCore apps launch fine and they detect my device is ARCore compatible, then it asks me to move my hand around to scan the surroundings. I do this, but my device just stays in this state forever. I have tried it in a really big room, moved my hand, even walked around a bit, but nothing. The device just keeps telling me to move my hand around. This happens on every ARCore app I've tried. I have not been able to successfully see an AR object on my OnePlus 8 Pro

What you describe is exactly what would happen when I tried this on the OP7P. Haven't even bothered with this phone. Just figured it would be something I never have.

This is really disappointing to hear! I was really hoping this ARCore issue was just a software bug that they would fix soon. But since you say it's been an issue since the OnePlus 7 Pro, I don't really have much hope for a fix now

We have to notify this problem to oneplus because i dont understand why everytime the op phones have these strangers bug
I just upgraded my OnePlus 8 Pro to OxygenOS 10.5.9 European version (IN11BA) and ARCore is now working perfectly on my phone! It starts up almost instantly like it asks me to move my hand around for like 1 or 2 seconds max and then goes into AR mode and displays AR objects

What AR app works for you? I'm on the same firmware ( also EU model ) and no AR app will work for me. Maybe you can point me in the right direction?
Yesterday after 10.5.9 update AR worked for me but today It doesn't work. I noticed AR is working only soon after reboot.

Yep, works just after reboot but later it doesn't. Then needs a new reboot. Must be something related to battery saving or something.
Same thing happened to me...
