[Q] Is there a camera replacement app for Oxygen? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Loving how stock oxygen OS is, but the google camera in it is terrible. Video almost NEVER focuses correctly, and pictures don't look as good as before.
Any good replacements that do both video/photo? There's plenty in the apps section for CM12, but not sure about oxygen?
Thanks!

CameraNext COS12 solved my issues AND seems to work fine on Oxygen.

I use the ColorOS camera port for CM11S with Oxygen, almost all of the stock features work well with OxygenOS (except 4K video, which looks pixelated for some reason). I haven't gotten around to trying plugins yet, but here's a topic I found that lists the plugins that work with Oxygen.

Yeah, I saw that post but it was too confusing.
The colorOS port you're using, can you link the post where you downloaded it? I saw a couple of 'ports' of it, not quite sure which one you tested and know to work.
Thanks!

Need camera app/blob help. LineageOS 14.1

LineageOS 14.1 Official
Franco Kernel
Open Camera
So I have been using lineage for the last three weeks, and am seriously disappointed in the camera. Before flashing I was stock CyanogenOS.
I have yet to take a decent photo since upgrading to nougat. And once those shots hit Google photos, they look even worse.
I do know that you need the blobs for the camera to work well, and I see a couple of threads talking about the different blobs for the various roms. What I don't know is if I can get the blobs through a kernel or maybe another nougat rom. I get the feeling that I am SOL. If I can't... This guy is going back to sock.
I don't care about slomo. HDR. 60fps video etc. I just want to be able to take good shots, and decent vids.
If there are any tricks, or something that I need to flash, please feel free to elaborate in the comments below.
Thanks.
PS. I have also seen comparisons with Oxygen, Color, Cyanogen, etc. A pros and cons list per se. If I am going to have to roll back and put on something that is considered 'stock' on the OPO... Should I be going to Oxygen or Color? Cyanogen is pretty fluid, with little lag. I would want OOS or COS to be the same. Only thing worse than a crappy camera is a lag fest.

I've actually been looking for the exact same thing. I'm on stock COS but it's been random rebooting on me for a while now (must be getting old) and I've heard good things about the oos port for the One. Along with these kernel/blob suggestions, I think this is exactly what I need to give a fresh start to my tired old OPO. Thanks again!
Edit: how about bacon camera instead of cameranext? It's being updated still (using it even now on cos for things where I need manual focus).

I'm running LOS 14.1 and over on the thread for the Lightening Kernan they all said for LOS Rome we need to use Version V38... will using V56 have any adverse effects on the ROM at all? I appreciate any info you all have.. I used to be a flashaholic back in the day with my late great HTC HD2, but have been out of the customization game for a few years.

Hello, I tried to flash v56 on LOS 14.1 and all I got as a result was a non-booting phone. So I guess there's some incompatibility issue. Keep in mind that I'm a new bacon user so I'm not that experienced with the world of its mods etc, so I might as well have done something wrong. Anyway it's better to talk about this in that kernel's thread.
Using the lightening 54 or 56 whatever it was, had to install the kernel a second time before phone would boot. But have had some major annoyances. It reboots a couple times a day, it takes upwards of three or four secs from the time I hit the button for the screen to come on etc. Pics are pretty good though. Going to update to new 14.1 nightly and try things for another few days before I give up on it. Will probably move over to omni if things continue.

You know if I am being honest... the experience on stock CyanogenOS is the best. I guess COS is ColorOS so I should just shut up. But at the end of the day I ultimately feel like I am going to end up going back and fastboot flashing the original Cyanogen files and going back to stock. When it installs right, with no ones and zeros crossed, there is no better experience on the OPO. Not giving up yet, but the writing is for sure on the wall.

They said V38 if you are using cm camera. So I would guess if using OOS blobs, you need to use the other. I am going o post about my lag issues over there and see what is said, so maybe keep an eye on that thread for more info.
Edit: Nevermind. I thought about turning off 'prevent accidental wakeup' and things are working great so far. Now to figure out the rebooting issues. Hopefully today's LOS update will fix.
I've been keeping my eye on that thread. Only reason I posted in here asking is because of the post suggesting to flash Lightening v56, OOS Blobs, and CameraNext. I thought someone running LOS had to have done this and had some feedback. I followed the steps last night and the camera is looking much better but the phone seems to be running warmer. I'm gonna give it a few days and see how it settles.

Not having warmer issues at all on this end. I will say this though... keep an eye on your battery drainage when phone is not in use. ie. in doze mode. You might need to flash a different modem. One thing I have also noticed on 14.1 is I rarely have signal, on any modem, until I turn wifi off. Probably a battery saving/nougat thing, but still kinda weird. The 01/25/2016 c7 modem works best for me as far as drainage is concerned. I wouldn't flash new modem firmware unless standby drainage is an issue. I originally did it because I had no data at all, and new modem didn't fix it anyways.

Suggest me a ROM. Please lol.

So, I'm pretty sure there's lots of threads like this one, but I went through many and just couldn't find what I needed. Anyway, the title clearly explains it. I'm currently on the stock Oxygen OS 2.1.4 based on Lollipop. Kinda got bored and finally thought of upgrading. Am not a noob btw.
1) Of course, the ROM should be fast and stable. I play a lot of PUBG, so performance and stability is a priority.
2) Camera is a priority. I've read that ColorOS blobs are the best. Do any Oreo or Nougat ROMs have them?
3) Features are the least important for me. I can even live with vanilla Android. I'll root it with Magisk and install systemless Xposed anyway.
4) Don't care about having latest security patches or something.
5) OTAs would be nice, if possible.
6) Oreo would also be nice, but I think Oreo ROMs aren't that stable right now, are they? Nor do I think they contain all the features I mentioned above.
All suggestions are appreciated! Please provide links for any ROMs you mention.
The reason I want to switch is because recently I did a factory reset and restored apps with Titanium Backup, which made the device real slow and apps like WhatsApp and many other are constantly misbehaving.

I'm not a big fan of unofficial roms. Might I suggest DotOS? Mr.AK's roms are very well built, daily driver material. This is my current daily driver. The only issue I have is HDR in landscape mode, but that shouldn't be an issue as the camera works as perfect as stock Cyanogen OS 13 (meaning you don't get weird contrast or quality issues as when not using the stock camera app). My favorite feature of the rom is the automatic increased contrast in very bright conditions like the Redmi Note 3 Pro, which improves visibility and legibility in direct sunlight. It can be found here:

I was very sceptical for the same reason at first, but being that I like DotOS from previous device experiences, I decided to try it anyways. Apart from what I mentioned, the ROM is extremely stable.
I'm on DOT O.S atm. Beautiful ROM. Two main issues. Oneplus gesture's (v-torch, o - camera etc) don't work and no nfc.. Shame it's an amazinf rom otherwise.
I find with oreo rom's I seems to always have problems with either nfc or gps or bluetooth. Gestures I can live without. Can anyone recommend a well tested Oreo rom that has these features working?

is general gsi roms good enough

is general gsi roms good enough for our device or is it better to wait for specific rom that is well modified for our device??? In other words is there any general gsi rom that is good enough and has major hardware parts working (camera, wifi, hotspot, brightness, bluetooth... Etc) ???
Thanks
Has anyone tried Havoc OS ROM ?
Generally speaking they're good enough to use assuming you can get them installed on you phone. I was using Phh's unofficial Ressurection Remix Rom for a while, and the biggest issue I had was the fingerprint sensor acting as a mouse button when the screen was on. Otherwise everything was very smooth and worked like what I expected them too. Battery life might have been a bit worse than it was on MIUI. I've had similar results on all of Phh's ROMs, although I haven't really tried images from too many other developers.
Installing them can be a struggle. It seems like half of the time I try to flash one I need to wipe everything on the phone to get it to work, but other times I can flash them with no issues. That's not specific to GSI images though. I've probably wiped my phone (system and storage contents) half a dozen times because I accidentally soft bricked my phone trying to flash something. That's probably more user error more than anything else.
I have also never been able to get gapps to flash on a GSI ROM. I've always had to use ones with them built in.
I ended up going back to MIUI because the GCam mod wasn't working properly, and a large reason for buying the phone was for the camera. I'll probably go back to Treble images once the major ROMs start releasing Pie variants, assuming we don't get some native ROMs first.
Anyone else get a trebble rom to work yet?

I flashed a lot of them. Most have bugs as you can imagine e but that's not the rom's or devs fault.
I had installed
Official Resurrection ReMix
Phh treble AOSP
Pixel Experience version 8.1 and 9
Polaris Pixel experience
Google extended
All with similar bugs/features. The 8.1 versions work pretty well, the pie versions have all the same bugs. But they are daily driver material in my opinion if you can do without some functions. Some of them have enough no working camera, others have trouble with NFC and bluetooth.
Others have distorted sounds (which can be easily fixed).
Just browse the treble development thread and find out what fits best for you.
I'm using pixel experience official 8.1 and 9 unofficial (on two separate MiMix2S) and so far it works for me.
I think the best by now is the official 8.1 PE rom. Most of the things I'm using do work really well. Now I'm eagerly waiting for the Polaris Pixel Experience Pie rom...hope it will arrive soon.
I think we own a not very popular device so devs are rare but there are some of them doing a great job and working on those issues. Maybe some could donate some bucks like I did to keep them motivated and show some appreciation for their hard work.
I've had the best experience with the Benzo 9.0 ROM.
How is the camera on GSI roms? One of the reasons I updated from the mix 2 to the mix 2s was for the camera.
Is it comparable to MIUI?, or total ****?
I am using the AOSP 9.0 rom by @phhusson: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases
Apart from the camera, I'm not aware of any known issues. Bluetooth, NFC, Sound and Calling issues have all been resolved (thank you very much @phhusson). I guess there are other issues I did not hit yet
The camera app I use is from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xi...ed-p-mix2s-t3838406/post77529938#post77529938
Its possible to take good pictures (without color issues) but some feature like HDR, portrait don't work.
As a base for this rom, I use the most current global beta from here:

So it's basically a link to a ROM we already know...or is there any device specific features included?
If it's the aosp ROM by phhusson it's stock Android and works smooth but lacks some features IMHO. Nothing fancy but a great leap forward in treble development. Great guy developing good and stable roms.

Can anyone share the latest OOS CAM apk?

I have custom ROM, and I'd like to use the latest OOS cam apk, but in apkmirror there is only ports from OP7/P which are always crashing when I opening them.
Where can I download it?

Let me Google that for you... https://lmgtfy.com/?q=oneplus+6+oos+camera+for+custom+rom
Apparently it's somehow super hard for some people to do a quick Google Search... It's that easy.
Here's some links to some threads that might be helpful:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/themes/magisk-oos-camera-3rd-party-roms-t3873821
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/themes/magisk-oneplus6-oos-camera-t3888204
If those ports don't work you might be out of luck, not every Custom ROM has support for the OOS Camera.
Not that it really matters, the OOS Camera sucks anyway. You'll be able to get way better results with a Google Camera port.
Also in many Custom ROM threads there have been reports of certain features of the OOS Camera to be not working, like Slow Motion and Portrait Mode.
So I wouldn't be expecting a fully working OOS Camera on a Custom ROM.

Don't assume I didn't google that before if you don't even bother to ask
If you'd pay close attention, you would see that I even commented on the thread in your 3rd link, but it's a dead old port, and I'd like to use a newer one (like the one in OmniROM for example, which is somehow managed to do so) because all of the options that you gave are extremely old, and most (if not all) the issue you mentioned are already fixed in the newer versions which you didn't even bother to look into account.
And I don't know why do you think the OOS cam so bad, especially if you're recommending a buggy cam like GCAM, which is behaving like an early alfa stage and crashing randomly.

And I don't know why do you think the OOS cam so bad, especially if you're recommending a buggy cam like GCAM, which is behaving like an early alfa stage and crashing randomly.

Well if you did search well than you would've already known that there isn't any great working port available but the ones included with certain ROM's. Something I already knew but you just assumed I didn't, now you are doing the exact same thing you were pointing out to me. So the advise you gave me would be fitting for you too. "Don't assume I didn't knew that before if you don't even bother to ask".
And I'm not going to read through all those threads just to see if you have already commented in them, why would I?
Beside that, yes the OOS Camera absolutely sucks. The unreliable post processing kills all the details, which results in very ugly digital looking, sometimes oversharpenend or soft picture's. A small crop isn't even possible due to that.
The Nightscape mode sucks too, makes every picture look like an oil painting. And it's funny you call GCam buggy, shows you didn't do much research on it. Currently I'm using Miniflex which works just fine and at least makes it possible to take usable pictures. The older xtreme GCam mod works fine too.
Both capturing details and night shots with GCam is superior compared to the OOS Camera. The only two things that work better with the OOS Camera are taking videos and Slowmo's, for which it actually is pretty good. But I don't need those features, maybe you do.
Look, you started a thread with your question without providing any basic info like which ROM you are running etc. Getting a bit tired of seeing new threads requesting stuff with hardly providing any info that might be useful to know. I might have sounded very rude so sorry for that, maybe I should've took a 10sec count before I wrote my response.

Maybe I was running out of options, maybe it was just wishful thinking, but I thought at first that someone here knows something that I do not about it.
And regarding the OOS functionality, I don't know, but I was fully satisfied with anything I used from 3.8.72 and above.

Well since there are some ROM's which do provide a pretty well functional OOS Camera there should be a way. But the best you could do is probably to run a ROM that provides the OOS Camera by default...
Regarding to camera quality it's probably because I'm a photographer, I'm probably looking at pictures differently than you do.

I prefer to stay with the rom that I have right now (havoc).
It combines the best from all the worlds into it.
The downside of it, of course, the lack of OOS (imo).

Best camera [Custom ROM]?

Hi everyone. I recently flashed a new ROM on this device trying to escape from the overheating, I was expecting a proper camera app but I only found bugs.
I tried Pixel Cam V1.1, I used it on MIUI and it was great but on RROS it became unusable.
Gcam MGC 8.1 by BSG worked but it only recognizes one sensor of 8mpx.
Also the UltraCVM UltraCam but it has so many bugs with lights that is unusable.
The chosen one was Tiger Camera Xmas release, it's almost perfect but trying panorama mode makes it unusable, fortunately the 2x and more are stable.
But I ask for someone that probably have tried another apps or xml config files.
I am considering install the MIUI stock camera from ANX but the POCO X3 isn't listed as compatible device and I don't want to root my phone to be honest. But if someone know about one functional version I will apply it as last resource.
I'm opening this thread to know your opinion, I researched on Gcam thread but it has too many versions that I've tried. I really liked all the sensors and the 64mpx so I need to find an app that takes me closer to use the full camera experience.
FYI, there a whole thread dedicated to Cams at https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/4164397/.
