Mi A1 doesn't have Camera2 api does it? I've checked with Manual Camera compatibility app and it says this phone has no support for Camera2 :confused:
*
My Redmi Note 4 doesn't support camera2api by default. But it can be enabled by editing build.prop (need root 1st). Now mine already have EIS for video recording and i can use that Google Camera app.

For anyone who wanted to use Google camera app, you need to put this in build.prop (need to root to edit it)

persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1

But this will make 3rd party camera app unable to use manual control (shutter control etc) but you can still use it on stock camera apps.

While you edit that, better to put this as well to enable EIS (electronic image stabilization for video recording)

persist.camera.eis.enable=1

So google camera does work?

Hi Japanties. your info - my answer.. definitely asnwered my question!!!

Hi all.
Argghhh… Xiaomi A1 or Huawei Nova 2i ? Any Huawei Nova2i discussion thread in lowyat or review?

Front Camera: Nova2i?
Rear camera: Mi A1?
Performance: Mi A1.
Display: Definitely Nova2i.
Battery: Mi A1?
Android OS: Definitely Mi A1.
Price (value): MI A1.

What Else?

Thanks in advance! smile.gif
*
You can check reviews on youtube. Nova 2i = Honor 9i = Honor 7x, all are the same phone.

Personally i'd choose Nova 2i if money isnt a problem.

Wondering how the Nova2i camera performance is compared to Mi A1 - I would assume its better based on specs...then again specs doesn't tell a lot until there is a comparison

It sure looks good though

I think your key decision is will do you want an almost 6 inch screen in your palm or a 5.5 inch screen in your palm?

QUOTE(Wolgie @ Oct 17 2017, 12:56 PM)
Yeah yeah correct. Previous i use 5.0 inch, now i use 5.5 Mi A1. Feel very big.
( not suitable phone in toilet.  tongue.gif hard to grab 1 hand )
So u think about it, Nova 2i is 6inch.
*
Nova 2i looks a bit slimmer tho.

Honor 7x is not same as Nova2i
Huawei Nova 2i (Malaysia) = Huawei Maimang 6 (China) = Honor 9i (India) = Huawei Mate 10 Lite (Europe)

Oh ya. Thanks for clarifying.

Don't worry, we all might shift to Mi A2 in the future since the price is cheap!  :thumbsup:

Yeah, hope Mi A2 still pure stock Android! 8GB ram please haha 😋

Dont put hope too much. Android one already reach 4th generation and Google still never release a successor for any Android One device.

Nice! Yeah, I mean it's also about expectations. This is a midrange phone, and Xiaomi doesn't claim that it will take flagship-like photos. For what it is and what we paid, I would say the camera is more than decent smile.gif

Flaship dual camera.. 😏

Thats why people had high expectations for the camera. But yeah, for the price, you cant even get a better camera phone at this budget.

I don't think it's possible, even though they're the same. Flashing Mi 5x ROM on A1 will brick the xiaomi A1. There's one guy did it and it went brick.
*
Read properly. He said flash MiA1 ported ROM into Mi5x, not the other way.

It's possible bothways:

A1 -> 5x
5x -> A1

AFAIK you cant. Both devices are different although they have same look. Mi5x codename is tiffany and MiA1 is tissot.

You mean Oreo as in pure stock Oreo or custom rom? This is exactly similar to Lineage OS 14.1 Nougat that i tried 5 months ago on my RN4.
