hi there, i wonder if there's a way to get oos camera on custom roms .. some say you can download its apk and it works but it doesnt actually .. the quality is awful like 20% quality of what it should be..! gcam is fine but in some cases messes colors and skin tones and its nice to have stock alongside
RR 8.0 for 7t has it preinstalled (v 3.10.something). Works, but there is a bug that it crashes if you switch to portrait mode.

Its because I want the black and white feature and portrait mode.

As for portrait you should use google camera, which is way better in my opinion both in edge recognizing and quality (and it works for both front and back camera).
For B&W you can use Snapdragon camera (included in most roms), but i noticed it has some bugs with focusing, or FreeDCam, which should cycle and show B&W using the second camera (but it depends on the rom you're using).
As for MIUI camera you can get it to work on custom roms through some ports, but you'll get basic functionality and for sure no support for second camera. They're also old miui 9 versions, so they won't have portrait.
If you still want to try here are some versions to flash (remember to give all the permissions prior opening the app, otherwise it will say that it can't connect).
I still recommend to avoid using miui camera on this device, it is really bad with picture compression. Just use GCam for almost everything and you'll get awesome results, i even compared with my friends' mi 8 and the results are impressive.

Assuming you are on oreo-based rom (i'm on syberia and this doesn't work), just open FreeDCam and try to switch camera. It should show front camera, and changing again camera should show up the B/W sensor. I can't say it works for sure, i used to do it on an old unofficial rom (AICP based off old los15 sources), and it may still work but i didn't do further testing.
I asked to syberias' dev if he could look into that, hopefully we'll have working B/W sensor for third party cameras other than buggy Snap
UPDATE: Got it working guys, made a new thread so that it will be pinned for others too
REMINDERS
Before I start, I would like to give some reminders on using ported GCam on any phone other than a Pixel:
1) Full resolution is not guaranteed. I don't know why this is the case, but the leading explanation is that Pixels have 12MP sensors instead of 16MP. See this thread for details.
2) This is pretty much trial-and-error. The APKs I have suggested may not work, since different developers make different tweaks on different versions of their APKs. It also doesn't help that there's no APK created specifically for the ZenFone 3, which means we have to rely on APKs made for other devices.
3) Thanks to Celso Azevedo for providing a very clean mirror of all APKs, which allowed me to try A LOT (think 20+) APKs.
What works:
GCAM 5
GCam 5 is very stable, so almost any GCam 5 APK is going to work. This includes fast HDR+ processing and absence of green/purple tint on front camera. Every feature is on GCam 5 except for Night Sight. I have a few recommendations though:
1) fu24's 5.2.025 APK - pretty much the latest and most customizable one can ever find on this version.
2) Arnova's 5.1.018 APK- #1 is the king, but you might try this one as well.
GCAM 6
This is where it gets tricky. A lot of GCam 6 APKs have bugs as GCam 6 is new in itself. You might observe issues such as black screens, green/purple tint on front camera, and crashes when trying GCam 6 APKs. To date I have not found an APK that works with slow motion.
To save you the headache, I have a few APKs to recommend:
Arnova's V 2.0 - the best APK I've seen. Just set the front camera model to Nexus 6P, and green camera tint will be gone.
DO NOT TRY
There are APKs which are guaranteed not to work. These APKs just crash every start-up. Don't try these when experimenting with APKs. These are:
1) Any 6.x Arnova8G2 APK, except for those with "Pixel2Mod" or "Pixel3Mod" in the title (these don't have any customization options other than the one bundled with the Pixel, also have green tint)
2) Any APK made for Poco/OnePlus/Exynos/Kirin phones.
I have confirmed every piece of information to be accurate at the time of writing. Circumstances may change, so I'm updating this thread every month to be more accurate.

Thanks for this but rear cam is laggy any setting you recommend?
Thanks for the links. Currently using the recommended Gcam 5 with the last PixelExperience ROM and I couldn't be happier with my phone. Truly spectacular pictures.

Google camera 7 [Pixel 4 build]
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog746/
Try this.works well .
New ui. No lag what so ever in viewfinder.
Only cons: selfies are just way more softer (who clicks them anyway??), Video recoding doesn't work.(stock cam is better for vdo as 1080 60fps with better faster focusing...

Hi there,
is there any good and working camera for S7 flat?
- I have tried few google cam apps with no success, all of them are freezing the device: black screen resulting soft brick and autorestarts after boot, till I dont remove it...
My aim:
to stay on an Android 9 Pie based rom, with acceptable camera app
- I'd like to install a stock samsung camera or googlecam which works, and takes nice photos. "Open Camera" seems to be okay, but the photo quality is not the best, noisy images...
Howdy!
I'm using LineageOS (without Gapps) on my OnePlus 7 Pro and it's great. The only drawback is the camera.
I installed the Stock ROM OP camera app and gallery app and they kind of 'work' but the picture quality is just not there. It looks a lot worse, especially in wide angle mode.
Very soft, mushy, very grainy in the shadows, just overall poor quality.
Also, the camera app crashes when I open it every time. I have to long-click and select a mode, that's the only way to open the app. I also can't get from the camera directly to the gallery.
I'm using the 'correct' versions since I got the apk from my device when it was running OxygenOS 10.3.1
I tried installing 'OnePlus Camera service' apk, but it wouldn't install.
Did any of you guys figure out how to get the stock camera to work on a custom rom? I suspect there is some post processing app needed that runs in the background, cleaning up the picture.
thanks!
You should give Gcam a go.
There's a good discrption in the apps thread
I haven't seen OOSCam work well in any ROM. Gcam is great for photos, but stock OOS cam is what I want to use for video. It's the reason I went back to stock.

Resurrection Remix OS does and it's included
I'm in thoughts of buying Poco F2 Pro, but have a few questions.
1) Does NFC work Lineage, Evolution or similar custom roms?
2) Does Gcam work well(4K 60fps) Lineage, Evolution or similar custom roms? And does the Gcam add stabilization on 4K 60fps recording?
3) Does the fingerprint sensor work well with Lineage, Evolution or similar custom roms?
4) Are there any port of the Miui stock camera app for Cutom roms?
5) Are there any screen protection Glass that work with the fingerprint sensor?
6) Are there any other camera app than the stock Miui that is able to record in 8K 30fps?
7) Are there any know functions in the phone that doesn't work well with custom roms?
AOSP rom.
1) Does NFC work Lineage, Evolution or similar custom roms?
NFC works on most roms.Look at the posts of roms you are interested in.
2) Does Gcam work well(4K 60fps) Lineage, Evolution or similar custom roms? And does the Gcam add stabilization on 4K 60fps recording?
For the moment no GCAM works with all the options of the original camera.
3) Does the fingerprint sensor work well with Lineage, Evolution or similar custom roms?
FOD works great on some roms with more options than stock roms.
4) Are there any port of the Miui stock camera app for Cutom roms?
Descendant XI has miui camera but not yet 100% operational.
5) Are there any screen protection Glass that work with the fingerprint sensor?
Surely on condition that you choose the right model.
6) Are there any other camera app than the stock Miui that is able to record in 8K 30fps?
***2)
7) Are there any know functions in the phone that doesn't work well with custom roms?
the choice of network is problematic on most of these roms, obliged to choose automatic network.
play store not certified(not all roms)root mandatory.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Currently the AOSP roms are under development, at least 2 years(+or-) to have a 100% functional roms.(Depends on xiaomi).
If you want a rom better than stock you should see to the EU rom.

1) Have read some, but haven't clued out which rom that is most stable and that works with most of my seven points in the list.
2) As long as it fix image stabilization on 4K 60fps, otherwise I can use the stock camera if it gets a full wokring port.
3) Great!
4) Any link to that one?
7) Does Magisk fix that?
4)https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-official-descendant-xi-13-01-21-a11.4211179/
7)Yep.
