    • Hi, after changing the processor and UFS (Universal Flash Storage) on your Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro, it seems you’re experiencing camera issues. This is not uncommon, as these components can be closely linked to camera functionality. Please do following steps: Clear Camera App Data: Go to Settings > Apps > Camera > Storage > Clear Data. If the problems still happen, then try to do Factory Reset as a last resort. This will erase all data on your phone, so back up everything important first.
