Hello, I've recently got my MI4 LTE and flashed lineage OS, so far so good. I love how much extra storage I could get out of it, especially since I'm only using the 16gb variant. Anyways, the only thing I miss is the stock cam for the MIUI. I don't really record much in UHD, but I do use the front camera a lot for short vlogs, but the Lineage Stock OS only gives me a max resolution of 720p. Do you guys have any alternatives for the stock MIUI camera on Lineage? Or is there a way to bypass the resolution and enable 1080p video recording?
P.S. I'd like to ask the mods to move the thread to the appropriate section if necessary, I just found out about the themes/app section just now.

Take a look at the thread for Temasek's unofficial CM11, some users have found that camera performs much better when the cpu is firing on all cylinders! *edited* It seems some other fixes, which I was already using are also required. Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50686592

Hey,
ive been running cyanogenmod 11 nightlies and its been a good experience so far, fast and hardly any bugs. the only problem i have is the stock camera. its not even close to the quality of sense roms. it has trouble focusing and the quality is just subpar. Is there any fixes or mods to help improve quality or is it just one of the drawbacks of running stock android?

I understand that sense camera can't be used on aosp ROMs, but is there any way to improve the camera quality of aosp ROMs, such as cm11?
Well from what I noticed, the image does not look sharp in the camera app, but after I went into gallery and zoomed in, it loads and looks a lot better. I'm not really disappointed with it.

Snap Camera HDR is built from the same 4.4 source, but has many enhancements and performance improvements. It's significantly faster and has a better burst mode. Worth the $2, and you can even install a trial version.

I would also say to go with a paid camera app. I've heard good things about procapture but too cheap to buy it myself yet. Currently I'm use Camera MX. I installed it while I was still running sense and I had the opportunity to compare the two head to head. I'd say the sense one was definitely better but only ever so slightly. Certainly now that I compare Camera MX to the stock one on 4.4, it is like night and day. Camera MX is waaay better.
Finally, I should mention that some camera app makers are starting to tune their apps to the flagship phones (eg. HTC One, S4). That doesn't really help us, but it's something to consider when making your next purchase. Things like the camera really need to be tuned to the hardware to get the best performance.

Thanks for the suggestion, ill definitely give camera mx a try,
Hi,
I run on CM11 and I think the stock CM11 cam is ok.
But I have a problem when the cam needs the flashight in dark environments. The Cam doesn't use the flashlight to focus the image. Only when the image is being recorded, the flashlight is used. That's why I have bad, fuzzy results if the pictures were taken in the dark.
I have also tried another camera apps like the Camera MX but there is the same problem.
Are there others who have the same problem or can it be solved by the settings?

Camera is getting better on 4.4.
No HDR, but decent.
Bad in 4.4 si sound. No Beats Audio...
Camera is not the same in 4.4.2 roms. Some have more options, some ar thin in facilities.
just switched to cm11 from an older sense rom. Big feature I'm missing in the camera is the ability to take pictures while recording. This feature is supposed to be included on the camera now, but I can't seem to figure out how to make it work. Am I missing something?
I have the latest version 2.2.024.
Camera on 4.4.4 Deviant Xone is Good.
I think its about the same like sense camera.
Thank you, $droyd$
I use the app camera zoom fx, because I don't like the Cm camera app.
Camera zoom fx is much better.
Hi,
i`m current using 4.4.4 since update on 4.4.2 the camera can not zoom. I can zoom on the screen but the picture isn´t zoomed.
That ist with both apps (cm11 app and google camera).
Is there any solution?
Mine works.
I guess it's from youre rom.
Now i use MIUI Germany 4.3.2.8 Android 4.1.1
Camera have HD option. Foto not so good.
Picture is way better with Deviant Xone camera.
I have tried the software with HD camera, or "professional HD camera". Description is fantastic.
Soft, NO!
Hey all, I haven't heard much about camera specs in all the excitement about Lollipop and now PA on the G3, I am on CM12 now and loving it but I miss having 4k recording on the camera... Any way to bring this back? Maybe a camera app port? [emoji1]
That is the only reason I went back to a stock based ROM. Love my camera.
I know this is something we can do... We have some great developers here... WINK WINK!... That is the only only thing it is missing. I'm going to try some build.prop edits to see if it will work, but I doubt it.

Agreed, CloudyG3 is great. It's my go to ROM unless I'm on CM12, I had to flash back today because I'm having WiFi issues on CM.
Aosp ROMs always have bad cameras they use googles **** camera

I have had many phones...Nexus, Touchwiz, Sense, and now the G3...it cannot be done.
But the ability to record 4k is in the hardware, right? If it were strictly a software up conversion then yes it would be an issue, but if it is native to the camera hardware it seems like the camera app would just need to have the support for that feature of the sensor...
I sorta think its silly to record in 4k without even having a 4k TV to play it against. I honestly can't justify it, so I'll stick with the pros of having cm12 instead. Fwiw the Google camera isn't all that bad really. If I need pro photos, that's what my Sony nex is for.

But we do all own a phone that plays 4k... And if you down sample to 1080p it retains a lot of sharpness and clarity not possible from strait 1080p recording.

This is the thing right here. I want to be able to record in 4k so that I can downsample/crop/frame a 1080p edit of that footage with amazing clarity and control.
I desperately want to be able to do this on AOSP on the G3, but the going, thus far, is slow.
Recently YouTube brought back 4k playback. Check out the GoPro channel. Sweet stuff. They need an LG G3 channel...
I don't think the quality in stock vs Google camera can ever be matched sadly.

Which camera do you think is better? I'm confused.

Stock camera is ages ahead of the CM Camera (Googles), there is just no comparison, once you look at the photos on a big screen you notice the lower quality on the Google camera photos., also with CM you will loose:
Laser Focus, 4K video recording and Slow Motion
If your recording in 4k only to convert to 1080 because it looks better it's because your editing software isn't doing it's job. I've tried it both ways and get the same results. And yes unless you're filming for a professional job that will use cinema standards or own a 4k TV recording in 4k just takes up too much space for no reason. I also recommend waiting quite a few years before attempting to get a useless UHD TV.
Hi guys, I'm currently using LOS as daily, i love this rom. but the only thing is camera, I've tried every gcam and no one works on my phone. Ive come with idea if someone will port original camera from coloros to work on custom rom. it would be great if someone work on it. thanks anyway and i will look for it
I know that to make a stock camera for custom ROMs in difficult but not impossible. By the way, there is fix for gcam working in LOS made by user vetefan. works like a charm. But no gcam have eis, 60 fps, 4k, 48MP, macro, wide lens support. And in all gcams resolution is limited to 12 MP front and 4MP back camera, slow-mo. So gcam although makes nice night shots, cannot use efficiently our camera hardware. And the camera is one of the major assets of our R5Pro. That's why I end up in stock rom with magisk. So it would be major contribution to R5 Pro society if someone could get stock camera working on custom ROMs.
here fix for gcam in Los( thanks to vetefan):

Same here. Been looking into the issue but oppo cam app can't really be installed without it's libs outside color os environment. We've been trying a lot of things out and experimenting with the guys on telegram to make it work but without success so far. Stay tuned.
Hello to everyone.
I know this isn't the place for my subject.
But I've been looking for a long time.
And the section of applications and problems is almost unseen.
Please excuse the members and supervisors
In fact, after trying out a lot of cooked turkeys,
I couldn't find the original camera quality for Samsung.
In the oreo version 8
Specifically, it's about rear cam selfie.
The original camera gives an impression and effect that I didn't find in the Android pie cameras.
I searched a lot online to find the original Android 8 camera with all its components and effects.
But I couldn't.
I want to get the original camera with its effects on Android 9.
Since I can't stay on Android 8 right now.
And at the same time, I don't want to lose this great camera.
I hope you pay attention.
If you use AOSP Pie, you won't get Samsung stock camera working respectively Samsung stock camera results.
I'm not sure about Pie stock ported versions like FloydQ (it's Q, not Pie, actually), but as they're based on Samsung firmware, there could be a better chance that you'll get your desired results.

I'm already on the TW version
And I tried most of the pie versions
But it's not good as the original Oreo camera.
By the way... Other oreo-based roms aren't the same as the original.
The only rom that has the same camera quality is a super-man rom.
I tried to extract the camera files from him and insert them in other roms with a rom control, but I failed.
I wish I could find what I'm looking for.
To get the same quality as the original Oreo camera on the pie.
