I´ve been testing CM12 beta 6 for 3 days and it´s great. Is the first time I install a custom ROM on a Sony Xperia device so everything is new for me in this device and the first complain about this is camera.. On stock the camara was ok for a 8MP device, very similar to my S4 Active(8mp). But now without the stock ROM the camera is terrible, very noisy in good light or low light. I´ve tried to improve the quality modifying the "build.prop" and "media_profiles" into system. But is not even near to stock. I know Sony has some drivers for the camera and some DRM in the TA partition, but by this moment my 5 years old HTC HD2 with 5MP is taking much better photos, the S4 Active I have also with CM12 is taking soo much better pictures and I think is the same or similar hardware 8MP.
Are some tricks for improve camera quality that I didn´t hear about Xperias devices?
Is this just with CM12 or with any Custom ROM?
Can I do something to improve my camera quality?

I know is just a beta yet, but before I Flashed that, I Flahsed LiquidSmooth 4.4.4 and the camera was the same, of course was more stable ROM but camera quality was the same. Too much blurry like if the lense was dirty compared to stock 4.2.2. I think it´s maybe because of the DRMs into the TA partition, same story with Xperia Z3 and others Xperias devices, so I want to know if there is any trick to improve camera quality to be similar to stock 4.2.2 o it´s imposible to do that.
someone says that varun is working on a new camera hal that maybe improve camera, we have a dead 4.2.2 device upgraded to 5.0.2 with near full completity (only need some fixes with framework, kernel modules like bluetooth modules and then the best part, battery improvements and performance, what at the moment without too much as kk have is a lot better than kk )
Camera stopped unexpectedly
Hi guys. I am really lost on what to do after flashing my C2105 with CM12 Beta 6. When i change the settings on Camera, everything can be done with the exception of when i try to change the resolution of the video from 720P to QVGA or the other one. I wanted to change to a smaller resolution so that the video won't be too large for sending through whatsapp. But when i press on QVGA, the camera has stopped unexpectedly. And i will have to clear data and cache and reset the settings again. Unluckily, the resolution still can't be changed :/ Ayone has the same problem or solution?

Hey guys,
I have a problem with my camera on the LG G4. Note: The Snapdragon Camera is flashed on the device but I tested different apps too. The camera was pretty good on stock and worked well. The internal/selfie camera is still fast and works fine but the external camera / back camera is way to sloppy. While trying to take a photo with apps like Instagram, the Google Photo Scanner or Google Camera / Snapdragon Camera it seems to use the wrong exposure times.
Even while taking a photo of a person in front of a white wall being in room light it's lagging pretty hard and everything is sloppy and slow. Taking good photos is really hard this way. Only when I focus on a TV / Computer Screen it's running fine since the exposure and ISO timing is automatically changed to the correct values. When I move away from the Screen again, it's getting slow and sloppy again.
Anyone had something similar with Cynanogen Mod? I also had the issue with my Nexus 6 before which was really annoying. I don't know if I do something wrong while flashing, but I can't find out whats wrong. I tested the same enviroments with my girlfriends unflashed Huawai P9 and her phone is just running fine without problems. I would use stock software but I really hate all the bloatware and modified Android versions they bring in.
Everything else works fine and the phone overall has a good performance. The issue was already existing with CM13 too. Maybe some driver being installed wrong?
Thank you very much. If you need more informations just tell me so I can give you more infos.

Greetings and welcome to assist. You really need to ask this in the rom thread, it is quite a common issue when using cm based roms for there to be camera issues.
Regards
Sawdoctor
Does anyone know how to fix this ? I get this weird cellshading effect on every picture.
I used FULL Gapps.

Afaik, the camera will always be worse quality on non TW ROMs due to the TW drivers/framework needed by the camera to function correctly
Was the same on my S5, and the reason I stuck with stock
Hi folks, I was able to flash the Elephone Vowney rom into my Blu Pure XL.
Rom is running smoothly, just need to fix RIL and some other libs that I imagine can be copied from BLU PXL original rom or the V19 update.
Anyone willing to help, please reply to this thread as I was already fed with the excessive bloat on the original rom, I used the Allview X2Xtreme rom too but I really dislike all the ¨Amigo¨stuff that the rom includes and it consumes excessive quantity of RAM.
Things that work out of the box:
Wifi
Bluetooth
Touch
Display
on screen buttons
Broken:
Cameras work but back camera is blurry and front cam is greenish
hw buttons > back button and home work, multitasking doesn´t
sim cards are both read but no signal
Sound is broken
pictures attached
I would love to help but I'm not experienced in anything DEV

Why don't you try letv 1s custom roms ? its the same chipset.
Same chipset does not mean same bootloader or same libs, drivers, modem, etc. If the dev world were that easy then most Blu Pure XL owners would just use any rom available out there for Helio X10 aka mt6795 chipset.
I dont own the device anymore, I moved on from this...
HI all. To make matters short, after three years of being a huawei user I've bought my self one xiaomi mi4 lte-cu.
It came with stock 4.4.4. kitkat and MIUI 7 by xioami.eu 5.12.11 Beta.
My question is what would be the best rom for my phone (Mi 4LTE-CU 2/16 gb). I am looking for good battery life, stability (everything works like it should) and good camera quality. And if anyone can point me in the right direction what are the best instructions for backup (before upgrade), and the instructions for upgrade (necessary steps).
Now I get aprox 4h of Screen on time (with 4g and wifi enabled interchangeably), everything works most of the time ok (sometimes some games crash depending on the battery level), and the picture quality of the camera is so so.
My previous phone was Huawei P7, which by available specification should have an identical sony camera sensor. However, it produced better photo quality by order of magnitued (in my humble opinion). I wonder why is this so?
Any help would be much obliged....
Just want to ask if anyone has a solution to the XZ problem which is the camera easily overheat and forcing the camera app to close. I can only take 5 minutes(max) for the rear camera and about 12 minutes(max) at the front. Is using Custom Rom or AOSP 10 allow the camera to record longer videos even if it's heating a bit? thanks in advance. btw I'm using my XZ for my online class so it's a pain cant open the camera long enough.
sorry this sony xperia xz is also a chronic problem and there is no solution
