Secure Lockscreen Camera

Xposed Framework module to skip authentication on "Quickly open camera" gesture.

Fork of droserasprout/lockscreencamera
Updated for modern Xposed API and MIUI Camera compatibility.

Changes from original

• Migrated to libxposed API 101
• Added support for MIUI Camera (com.android.camera) on custom ROMs
• Fixed ActivityBase.checkKeyguard being called after lockscreen hooks, which caused the camera to dismiss immediately
• Built with AI assistance (Claude, z.ai, Gemini and Qwen)

Requirements

• Android 11+
• root
• LSPosed (A fork that supports API 101 should work.)
• MIUI Camera or GCam port

Installation

1. Install the APK
2. Enable the module in LSPosed with scope: com.android.camera and system
3. Reboot

How does it work

• Hooks com.android.camera.Camera (via parent class ActivityBase) to draw the activity over the lockscreen
• Suppresses ActivityBase.checkKeyguard and checkKeyguardFlag which MIUI uses to override lockscreen display flags
