How to Install MIUI Camera on LineageOS
In this guide, we will show you the steps to install the MIUI Camera on the LineageOS ROM. Out of all the custom ROMs out there, my personal preference has usually been LineageOS, because it offers the cleanest, fastest, and closest to stock AOSP usage experience without any bloatware.
However, there’s just one gripe- the camera that it ships with is quite basic in nature, missing way too many features that the one from Xiaomi beholds. Just to give you an idea of the same, I have prepared a tabular data for the features that are present/absent in both the cameras. Have a sneak peek at the table below and you’ll get what I am talking about:
| Features | MIUI | LineageOS |
|---|---|---|
| Pro Mode | Present | Absent |
| Documents | Present | Present |
| Video | Present | Present |
| Photo | Present | Present |
| Portrait | Present | Absent |
| Night Mode | Present | Absent |
| HDR | Present | Absent |
| AI Camera | Present | Absent |
| Macro | Present | Absent |
| Voice Shutter | Present | Absent |
| Timed Burst | Present | Absent |
| Assist Cam | Present | Absent |
| Watermark | Present | Absent |
| 64MP | Present | Absent |
| Panaroma | Present | Absent |
| Short Film | Present | Absent |
| Slow Motion | Present | Absent |
| Time-Lapse | Present | Absent |
| AI Watermark | Present | Absent |
| Long Exposure | Present | Absent |
| Video Encoder | Present | Absent |
| Advanced Processing | Absent | Present |

As you can see, most of the advanced [and even some basic] features are missing from the LineageOS’s camera [org.lineageos.aperture]. So what can be done to address this missing piece of puzzle? Well, there does exist a nifty workaround using which you can install the MIUI camera on your LineageOS ROM. And in this guide, we will show you how to do just that. So, without further ado, let’s get started.
