3rd party messenger, 3rd party Mi dialer, 3rd party music app, 3rd party Gcam and almost everything 3rd party.

Which one is now stock on the Xiaomi device The logo ?

BoluwajiPieters:


Lol. And you said "3rd party Mi dialer."

Too intelligent!

genius43:


You can get Mi dialer from apkpure but as for Mi Message it crashes

KngGezy:


I envy your sarcasm. I knew you would jump the gun. This is even worse than 3rd party. It was created by other developers for Xiaomi devices. And obviously it crashes like mad because it isn't compatible with the device

How do you cope

BoluwajiPieters:


A little reading and you'll become a better person. Just a little.

KngGezy:

Tell everyone what I missed

BoluwajiPieters:


Nothing at all...

KngGezy:



Since we are all mentally derailed and you are the only sane individual. Please sha understand that the creator of this thread doesn't want modified pictures on his thread.

Only you will spam the Infinix thread with Xiaomi praises

Only you will spam the camera thread with Gcam modified pictures

One can easily say this is a case of the accused pointing fingers

KngGezy:


I love the way you move. You commented as if to correct me. Then I asked what I missed because I knew I was absolutely spot on. And you are now pretending as if I actually missed something .

Great move

if he doesn't want modified pictures in his thread then he never should have created it in the first place. if you know what MODIFIED means then you would know that editing a photo means it has been MODIFIED, which amounts to more than 80% of the photos here.

OHIsIManuEL:
I don't understand what these people me by "it's a camera thread, not a picture thread", abeg wetin gcam be?

Where do I start? I don't have the energy to start an eye-opening surgery on a person that has refused to let go of his blindness. Nay!

...but this is it, Xiaomi stopped baking Mi dialer and Mi Message into their recent devices because of regulations in some countries. Some versions of the same devices still retain the Mi dialer and Mi message Apps (..which I think belongs to the third party; Samsung.) So people trying to install those apps with the ROM baked into their phones will have incompatibility issues which will make it crash.

So, yeah! You're spot on!

Ignorance is bliss.

see eh, lot of people come to nairaland and create posts to buy phone's and camera quality. If you post your default cam picture I don't care if you edit it. It's just the quality. To help people choose a better phone. That's how a guy bought Xiaomi 8a and came here asking for gcam. But his phone doesn't support. I tried giving him one that works without portrait. Assuming people post pictures he wouldn't have bought the phone. They are other better phone that should have better camera at the price range.fashy people bashing tecno and Infinix. Their camera is better than Xiaomi.

KngGezy:



Ohh we are saying the same thing. Those affected will be using the Mi app that didn't come with the device. Is that not a 3rd party crashing app

BoluwajiPieters:


Lemme try to address this... I'm not a picture person; I hardly take pictures but I've gat GCAM, Snapseed and Photoshop express installed on my phone. I use a Redmi note 8 and my stock camera is good! Not the Pixel or iPhone class of good but it takes decent pictures. People only use GCAM because of the better image processing cum better pictures it gives. Personally, I don't see the wrong in that. If you've a good car, and then you decide to change a part, or add a better part to its existing good part, I feel no wrong is being done. A colleague using Samsung A30 once asked me if he can get GCAM installed on his phone. A friend using Tecno Camon 12 pro downloaded a random GCAM that kept crashing on his phone. Does that mean their stock cam is bad? No! They just want something better. That's that!

How this thread deteriorated from people taking great shots to people comparing phones/cameras is just not cool... Some of us are enjoying great shots especially Bazkid and TayJay or so.

KngGezy:


I feel for the guy, he thought Gcam will make his device snap extraordinary pictures. Not knowing it was all a facade. I cant imagine what the guy must be feeling now . Holding a Xiaomi device that cant take good pictures stock

Thank you bro and Yes I dont know about other models but the Infinix S5 and S4 camera are dope

BoluwajiPieters:


LOL.

Some of us are just here to enjoy pictures. Whether shot by iPhone, Samsung S9+ or GCAM on Redmi Note 5, just shoot something! All these phone superior complex isn't our business...

What if people that have gcam post both pictures, i.e similar shots by both their default camera and gcam?
Then let whoever compare and make subsequent buying decisions.

Personally, I feel a phone user who is particular about pictures will either get a phone whose camera can produce pictures to his taste, or do whatever needs to be done to achieve that on his phone. The essence of gcam imo.

ityP:


No o. This kind of colour pop is not achievable with snapseed

Camera comparison is relative. Your pixel takes better pictures than my Samsung. My Samsung takes better pictures than your Xiaomi. Does that mean the Xiaomi takes bad pictures? No!

I've had a chance to take pictures with stock camera of Infinix S5, Tecno Camon 12 pro, Tecno Camon 12, Tecno Camon 12 Air, Samsung A20, Samsung A30s and Redmi note 8.

Personally, I'll rank them thus; Samsung A30s, Redmi Note 8, Samsung A20, Tecno Camon 12 pro, Infinix S5, Camon 12 and Camon 12 Air.
