Need camera app/blob help. LineageOS 14.1 - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Lollipop Custom ROMs good as DD?

Hi I came from the Nexus 5 community. Sorry if my understanding of the Oneplus is not up to the standard. Just want to know if the Android 5.0 custom ROMs are ok to be flashed? Do they contain any major bugs and are they good to be considered to be as daily driver?

I'm using cm-12-20141220-UNOFFICIAL-bacon and the main issue I have is with the camera:
1. Using Cyanogen official camera APK, is slow / laggy and basically not great to use.
2. Shoot a 4k video and It seems that the 4k playback is laggy as hell and pretty much not usable. I use MX Player and I can't get H/W to work. But as mentioned, taking a video on 4K is slow while actually filming.
3. If you try to use any 3rd party camera app with Flash on, you'll get split exposure on a single image. Which means that you have to use CM camera, but again, this is a slow to operate. You can feel it's not smooth like using Google Camera.
4. If you use google camera to take 4K video, you'd still get the slowness while filming and playback is lagging all over.
All in all, this is my main complaint on using this phone.
Can anyone confirm these issues?

Most of the bugs have been mentioned on the last ten pages of THIS thread. For me, the slightly regressed battery life and the audio issues were enough to drive me back to CM11s. It is good for a Alpha though

That said, Is there a stable 6.0.1 ATT G3 ROM out there? STABLE being the key word.
I really want to be running MM, I have heard great things about it's smoothness and DOZE feature to extend battery life.
If there is a stable ROM, I'll root and install.

Nothing STABLE yet. That said, I've been running CM13 for over a month and I love it. Builds are unofficial but the latest builds in the dev forum are really fast, stable and have GPS working (for the first time ever for me, even with KK and LL). I run it with the 777 kernel and it's perfect for me.

Thanks for the feedback. I saw also (in subsequent posts) that the RR MM 6.0 ROM is also stable. I have never run CM before, so can anyone enlighten me so I don't have to drop 8 hours testing out both ROMs.... my questions are:
1) Which has a better camera experience? CM or RR? Stable, no FC.
2) which is more stable with less problems (ie, GPS, BT, no SD card, no 4G data, etc...)
3) which has better battery life?
4) Do either support device encryption? That was one of the major improvements in MM that no one seems to be talking about.
Thanks alot for the replies, and thanks to the developers for creating these, you guys and gals are awesome!

Do I have to use an aftermarket camera app like I did on SlimROMs? I used Open Camera. While it worked, it was sssslllloooowwww and sometimes caused the camera to crash, at which point I would have to pull the battery for it to work again (really annoying when you are trying to get Kindergarten graduation pics of your son...). I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and those problems went away though. Android is so weird...
For this reason, I will never ever to get inside a google autonomous car. I'm gonna be the last old timer left, and everyone will ridicule me. "In my day, WE drove! And we liked it! We loved it!"
No aftermarket app will change the fact that you will be missing the LG firmware.
Personally I love the way LG has the camera setup where I can just tap the screen it focuses then snaps it. No LG camera on 3rd party rom so I went back to stock. If your phone is as important to you as you claim given all the questions you asked it would be worth your while to wait for the official update as I will. Let the rest test and be dissatisfied with the problems and lack of features. Note that I haven't had a crash or freeze since I got away from cm12

Point taken, but I don't think I'll get the official OTA MM anyway because I am not on ATT, but on Cricket. Or would I just download from XDA and flash it myself?
Did you still root and debloat the stock ROM? Or just leave it completely stock?

After trying many a many roms here for both d851 and d850 (My son and mine), I would definitely stick with stock if you take pics. The d851 is actually in better shape (mm wise) as it has a supported CM13, but the camera is poor. As for cricket- my understanding is that some phones get att updates, and some don't. If an update doesn't happen after you know mm has been released, you can wait a week or two and it very well may be posted here to flash- or you can pick up a att go phone sim for a couple of bucks and flash, then drop the cricket sim back in.
And yes you can root & debloat, but I haven't seen a prepackaged 20g (that has the stagefright patch) debloated yet. I just use super uninstaller app from the play store, which requires root.
here I am just stock with root & recovery (if needed) haven't found a need to use either yet but I like having the option available.
I have all the stock crummy at&t apps disabled because actually "removing" them requires quite a bit of time that I haven't yet found.
If I install cm13 or RR do I lose the LG IR remote?
I don't think there is a custom IR remote apk for MM yet like there is for lollipop.

Haven't tried SuperLuminal's version yet, but the CM12.1 version you find here on XDA is working fine. There are a few bugs, but nothing a reboot can't handle...
Just keep in mind, that both are unofficial builds of CM12.1, as the CM Team haven't made an official version (yet - or perhaps it might never happend)
But give the SuperLuminal's version a shot - and tell us about your experience.

Thanks for response. Is cm12.1 smoother than miui? I find mi4c with miui less responsive than my old oneplus one with cm13. It's quite disappointing that my new mi4c is more laggy than 2years old OPO. Will that unofficial cm12.1 fix it a little? Or just snapdragon 808 is way slower than old 801?

Coming from OnePlus One as well, but with CM 12s, for that little time I spend using stock MIUI, I did not notice any lack or the phone being slower than the OPO. Actually MIUI ran pretty damn fast on the MI 4c - but the reason I moved away from the official, was because Kaspersky found malware on the ****ing phone. So maybe you should check you phone for malware or any unwanted apps. Depending on where you got the phone, it might have been tampered with.
Maybe, you should try to disable/freeze any apps you do not like first and see if that helps.
Anyway, if it's a faulty model you've received, you might want to return it...
Well this cm 12.1 has the nav bar working with capacitive keys disabled while the other one has it still enabled. I'm sure it will be fixed.
Jonas you probably had a reseller modified rom flashed. The EU rom doesn't have any malware.
Hi guys. I use TS rom for a few days. It is very smooth, likewise the Xiobai rom. Everything is working, except...edge double tap. Of course, you can enable it, but then ehile typing on any keyboard (aosp, google), it causes random backs. This feature is super while surfing on internet, but in real life it is too hmm anoying. I don't even touch edges and keyboard hides. When disable- not. It is my only complain. Battery and smoothness are very good. At night with lte enabled takes 1-2%. Best regards from Poland.
Wysłane z mojego Mi-4c przy użyciu Tapatalka
Xiaomi Service Framework Mod not work for me
I'm testing SuperLuminal CM 12.1 port from yesterday. It works pretty well so far; edge double tap is OK and didn't cause any unexpected behaviour in my usage.
There is no issue of DT2W not working after booting from recovery (that issue is present on Xiaobai's port, you have to reboot once from the ROM to have DT2W back).
Other than that the two ROMs are pretty much the same to me; Xiaobai's one might feel a little bit smoother in my opinion, but really a tiny bit.
I'm trying to get rid of any stuttering playing with entropy settings in Kernel Adiutor, will report back if I'll find anything useful.

I'm testing SuperLuminal CM 12.1 port from yesterday. It works pretty well so far; edge double tap is OK and didn't cause any unexpected behaviour in my usage.

Thanks for response. Is cm12.1 smoother than miui? I find mi4c with miui less responsive than my old oneplus one with cm13. It's quite disappointing that my new mi4c is more laggy than 2years old OPO. Will that unofficial cm12.1 fix it a little? Or just snapdragon 808 is way slower than old 801?

Just wanted to say that I experienced the same thing. I had a Nexus 4 with Minimal OS (Android 6.0) and it was sadly faster than the Mi4C.
I'm not saying that the Mi4C is slow. It is fast. But i was expecting something more. Expecially while typing (as write here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4c/help/expected-t3274918) i can feel the difference.
The Mi4C also have some micro-lag during transition that take away some joy on the daily use..
I'm probably going to try one of theese CM12.1 and see if i can get the same responsiveness i had with the N4
New rom is out now in Team Superluminal site.

Jonas you probably had a reseller modified rom flashed. The EU rom doesn't have any malware.

Yes, I know - I tried contacting Coolicool whom I bought it from - but they are just being like what these type of Chinese stores usually are - ignorant towards complains.
I am considering making the switch back to MIUI7 - but I'm not too keen on going back to a KK rom..

Interesting news, thanks for the good work!
I'll wait for some user feedback before testing, because I just clean-installed your CM port today and will change only if the ROM is almost stable.

Well, so far battery looks very close to the other CM port. I'm performing a lot of tests with Kernel Adiutor so cannot consider this an average day, but the battery definitely doesn't show any issue.

It is pretty stable. I'll been using TS PAC-rom 5.1.1 now for few days and I haven't noticed anything. But like our news says, IT IS UNDER TESTING for now. So if you like to try, take a backup of your current rom. And if you don't like it, you can revert back where you was.
There is lots of options/features from great roms. Like the PACman roms slogan goes "ALL IN ONE"
Does it have nav bar option?
Piston Headset problem under CM
I1m using the Mokee 5.1.1 Rom and its really great, I only have one big problem with it: My 3-button Piston2 headset doesn't work properly, only the play/pause button responds as it should, the volume rockers only open the dialer. It worked perfectly under Miui, but I love these custom roms much more!
Is it possible, to find a solution for this problem?! I'd love to try your rom, especially if there's any chance it will work!

Cyanogenmod 13 or Cataclysm

Hi all,
Ever since CM has been available for my devices, I have been using CM. Tried many other roms, but never really anything that I felt so comfortable with as CM.
Now that CM13 CAF has stopped development ( @myfluxi, you magnificent bastard! You created a great ROM!) I will probably stay on this one for a while but at a certain point move on.
So I started to look into Cataclysm a bit. Any ex-CM users here that went to Cataclysm and never looked back? Or the other way around?
Why exactly?
Please keep it civil, no fanboys or flamewars.
Why don't you try Cataclysm then make your own decision.

Because of my banking application, every time I try a new ROM (thus factory reset), I have to go back to my bank outside of my office hours, wait in line for forever and have the app reactivated.
So am I a bit reluctant to just switch to see if I like it. Was hoping for some replies from people that switched from one to the other and never went back.

i rarely had any issues with Cataclysm. Very stable and smooth rom indeed. Dosent have theme engine though. I Also have been using Chroma and its been great for me. Many CM features inside it. I read somewher that CAFHammerhead will be still going. A different maintainer has stepped up

Maybe make a new thread for every rom available asking for comparisons between CM and each:good: particular rom.

Yes, but I'm not interested in other roms other than giving Cataclysm a try. So I'll leave that up to others.
Anything else to add to the topic, or just here to live up to your signature?
I would go for Cataclysm over CM13 as Cataclysm feels more stable & smooth compared to CM13.
CM13 sometimes feels unstable as it is in nightly stage.
Surely the opinion might change when CM13 Stable will be available.
Don't get me wrong.
But CM has its own advantages.
I personally dislike CM because the performance has been worse thay it used to be, and idk why. I would prefer Cataclysm over CM and Chroma over Cataclysm, because the performance in Chroma is just great! I also use the elementalx kernel and limit my cpu to 2.0 ghz for battery. So Cataclysm is much more stable than CM, as CM has alot of problems with systemui right now, and with Cataclysm, you wont have an annoying 'Edit Tiles' button in your quick settings.

Why not use titanium backup option as I did? No problems in trying other ROMs

Tried it (went to Catcalysm and loved it!) but the backup didn't work.
It brings me to the login page, type my pin and it just doesn't respond. So for this banking app it didn't work, sadly enough
Both the same?
I'm confused!Are these same?How's the battery backup?

Battery life for me went from barely being able to get through a working day on CM13 to getting home with 40 or sometimes even 50%+ battery on Cataclysm with EX kernel.
So battery was a huge improvement for me, which is what I needed.
Why is cataclysm thread closed? Did I miss something?
Thread is closed at the request of the dev/OP, atl4ntis.
But why without warning? I like catalysm mod and all it extra settings. I hope someone make same mod in the future, when new android version come out.

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?
