[Redmi Note 10 Pro] lubo777:
I have spend last few days testing and experimenting with different Leica Camera Mod versions especially for AOSP based ROMs like Lineage OS which I'm using as a main ROM.

There 2 Lineage OS flavors available UNOFFICIAL and OFFICIAL. The Lineage OS Official has some vague semblance of a photo program that is far beyond the capabilities of the Redmi Note 10 Pro Camera full potential using Miui Camera or Leica Camera app.

Unfortunately the newest Leica Camera version 4.9 or 5.0 Magisk modules below are working PARTIALLY on Lineage OS OFFICIAL and UNOFFICIAL probably the same will be on other AOSP ROMs:

NOT WORKING: Photo, Portrait, Documents mode.

WORKING: Pro, Video, Night, Long Exposure, 108 MP (on some), Time-lapse, Panorama, Slow motion, VLOG, Short video

The problem is that the default startup mode is Photo and imediatelly after the initial setup the Photo mode exits with the error that the program is not connecting to the camera and will exit in 3 seconds.

In order to work around this problem you have to move FAST the slider to some other mode like Video OR after the Initial setup hold your finger on the Camera icon and create a link to the Video mode, this way you can start the program directly in this mode and no 3 seconds error will occur.

Configuration instructions:

- go to Settings / Preserve settings activate everything including Camera mode - with this the Leica Camera will remember the last mode used (Pro, Video and etc) and will start in it, this way no 3 seconds error will occur.

- go to Settings / Customize / Feature Layout - and remove the Portrait and other modes with 3 sec problem.

- go to Settings and activate both: Enable advanced settings AND Enable lab options, restart Settings and after that activate "Turn on parallel processing" - with this ON the Photo and Portrait mode still are NOT working, BUT there is no more the annoying 3 seconds error and Camera exit ... :)

The main benefits of the Leica Camera Mod for AOSP vs best GCam is the Pro mode function.

When shooting MACRO in Pro mode (Leica 4.9 only!) you have much better focus control. Unfortunately in 5.0 version the Macro switch in Pro mode is not available.

The RAW files produced from Leica in Pro mode are much better quality than the RAW files produced from the best GCam version for Redmi Note 10 Pro as is the LMC 8.4 GCam from Hasli.

P.S. For all AOSP users on Redmi Note 10 Pro I strongly recommend the LMC 8.4 GCam version and this config: 20230916-LMC-v8.4R18-Lupo-config.xml

The config is optimized for the Redmi Note 10 Pro hardware and you receive images with the best quality.

(If the pictures produced with this config are a bit too Saturated for you (I like them this way) you can adjust the Saturation level in Settings / Photo Processing / Main Camera / Main settings / Saturation) :)

P.S.2 For different LMC 8.4 Configs I strongly recommend you to visit this forum thread managed from @Laptapper, he has done great work testing and experimenting with different GCam versions and fine tuning the configs: [GCAM] [LMC] 8.4R17 R18
