Camera in LOS 15 works from now on
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] maarcnylmz:
Does ois problem can be solved via OOS HAL? I checked los15, camera is working but ois' performance is same with MIUI. Only 3 directions work, instead of 4.

Thank you for all efforts. Have a nice day.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] olivercervera:
3 OIS directions are like current 7.1.2 AOSP ROM right?

To me would be very important if the new OSS HAL would support CameraAPI2 hence Google Camera HDR+ features (I haven't tried so I don't know)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] smeroni68:
OSS hal is hal3 and api2...

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] smeroni68:
Camera is fixed, but after the bringup of 8.1.0 we had broken wifi... so before releasing an update and switch to beta stage, we need some time to debug and fix wifi. That's the current status.

Oreo 8.1 dp release

Well.. So many people asked for it , so if someone wants to try it I've uploaded my latest personal build on Android File Host, here's the link: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617943412

A few notes:

1 - it's not an "official build", so do not report any kind of issues with that ROM here (for the same reason the OP will not be updated)

2 - Requires a clean flash, upgrade from 8.0 is NOT possible

3 - Camera works, WiFi is broken

4 - Everything else works

Download and Enjoy :)

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] masterlo3:
Flashed and everything is good so far..

Bugs I've noticed so far...

WiFi obviously

Audio get muted when music FX is turned on while adjusting volume.

Somehow substratrum is without interfacer, hence some themes won't work.

Everything else works and ROM is smooth!

BTW it displays as Android 8.0.0 not 8.1.0 also with September security patch

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eternal70:
What gapps did you used ?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] masterlo3:
At installation, I used open gapps arm64 pico but when the ROM booted Google play services crashed and I couldn't log in. So, I went on APK mirror site and downloaded updated Google play services and playstore from 2nd November... I installed both as normal APK to overwrite the system ones and then it worked. Play services and playstore working after installing the updated version from APK mirror.

Great news, thanks for sharing.

But if the Camera works for you, why you don't share the fix with this thread's ROM and other developers? so we can get a new release with Camera working at last.

Actually the only thing stopping me from downloading this ROM is the Camera.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] -+BB+-:
That was the first thing I tried to do, but unfortunately It did not work.. I don't like so much give to wifi hal root perms but you can try in this way: go to /system/vendor/etc/init

Locate wifi rc file and open it with a text editor, then change user from wifi to root and add root to groups. Save and reboot.. If I'm right wifi should work
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Mkkt Bkkt:
Yes
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sir mordred:
Yeah you are right, giving root perm to wifi service can make wifi service weaker against vulnerablities

But the patch is currently verified by cm team according to gerrit

With proper selinux rules, it shouldnt be harmfull (giving root perm to wifi service)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] FcukBloat:
testing quickly your 8.1 test build... this post just to confirm wifi works with this method for those interested ;) [MENTION=5576897]-+BB+-[/MENTION] you have maybe the same kind of magic (edit files etc) to fix quickly DT2W also? :p

EDIT: nvm, I see camera is not working at all for me (clean flash, tested gcm, stock one instead maybe is working but is very very slow) so the rom is not usable ATM for me in any case, reverting to RR for now!

Have you done this test, "This will let the wifi hal run as wifi user and not need root permissions to access this path for firmware reloads. "

https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...mmit/d0396fd1a9ca37966bcebb8162e1da7f5b4dac95

edit :

I read the init.qcom.rc file

The next line is before

# Wifi firmware reload path

chown wifi wifi /sys/module/wlan/parameters/fwpath

Line

# Create the directories used by the Wireless subsystem

mkdir /data/misc/wifi 0770 wifi wifi

chmod 0660 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

mkdir /data/misc/wifi/sockets 0770 wifi wifi

mkdir /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant 0770 wifi wifi

mkdir /data/misc/dhcp 0775 dhcp dhcp

she must not be after to reloads.

by adding this path to reload the firmware after line

# Create SWAP related dirs

mkdir /data/system/swap 0770 root system

chmod 2770 /data/system/swap

could it work?

In this fix https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...bb8162e1da7f5b4dac95/rootdir/etc/init.qcom.rc

the wifi firmware reload path is right before the services

No it doesn't matter the line position, services are started later during boot, the directory are already created. The commit you linked is in both my Gemini/Jf trees, it's needed on 8.0 too, and worked fine until 8.1 release, but now wificond starts complaining.. There are tons of changes/updates on 8.1 (some of them wrong caused by some mismerge made by AOSP, like on system/nfc or frameworks/native), it will require some time before i review all the code changes made by AOSP guys

Pushed, even if I don't like it so much: https://github.com/AOSP-JF-MM/platf...mmit/a3eb299c8dc4b96b8019452feb4e174b7cc66fd9

Regarding Camera, I'm not a big Camera user but worked 100% times for me, both Google Camera and SnapdragonCamera, only issue I found is that it's terribly slow when Camera opens, but everything else i tried works fine here. I have an idea about what could be, but i must take a look better, I need some time :)

About D2TW the function must be implemented in new Power HAL, it has been killed here: https://github.com/AOSP-JF-MM/platf...bd06fed#diff-5a22bc957852876f05c39e6bf16d5632

It seems some beta versions of 8.1 have the AVRCP 1.3 that'd make it for the bluetooth / audio issue, if someone that has this build installed can check for the option on dev settings would be cool, thank you.

Currently lineage-15.0 is 3 commits behind of cm-14.1 branch, however when trying to flash SafetyNet kernel (based on cm-14.1), the device does not boot and goes into fastboot mode after a while...

I'm wondering what's the reason for this.

Anyway, great ROM! [emoji846]

This is the branch used for Oreo up to 8.0:

https://github.com/AOSP-JF-MM/platform_kernel_xiaomi_msm8996/commits/aosp-8.0-test

But take care, because we haven't released as official the 8.1 bringup, so maybe the branch I linked is not updated for it (new branch and pushes will be online for sure when we will go as official release).

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] olivercervera:
Hey Stefano I have a question for you.

How much difference you have noticed porting Oreo to Mi5 in comparison to Nougat? I'm not talking about a particular feature but the whole system.

According to Google there has been a lot of work in Oreo, defining and isolating HALs from their AOSP component (which they call server). They also claim that integrating HALs (which obviously need to be updated by the chipmaker) to Oreo is now much much easier and seamless. (I believe with Mi5 is not the case because we only have binaries from Nougat.)

However, Pixel 2016 devices have been brought to Project Treble. Did this move helped porting Oreo to Mi5 in any way? I know they are not running the same SoC, but it's the same family. I'm also sure many other components are different.

This is only a fun question and I'm not asking any ETA for release. I just want to understand if this process has changed for the better. Do you think this process will change for native Oreo devices in the future?

Thanks :D
