Hi!
In your experience, If I install a custom rom, does the quality of pictures taken is gonna be affected?
Have you experience issues using the modules for longer exposure time? (Px camera)
Thanks!

Hi guys
I have a OnePlus inbound and asked myself this: Users of about every single device from every single manufacturer have to make due with a worsened camera quality experience when moving away from stock ROMs to AOSP-based or vanilla Android builds. This is usually due to closed-source implementation of proprietary camera features which can only be enabled or accessed when using the stock camera app on a stock ROM etc and holds true for Sony, Samsung, LG and probably many more. Even Nexus-devices under certain circumstances. Usually caused by post-processing and image enhancement mechanisms to go haywire and (native/hardware) HDR being absent, resulting in much worsened image quality when taking pictures.
Is the OnePlus One also affected? When moving away from CM11S to AOSP, CM11, CM12 or ParanoidAndroid, will the camera experience be worse or are the OnePlus camera features documented well enough, so that custom ROMs can maintain the stock camera quality?
Thanks for answers.
You can use the CM11S camera on any ROM for this device.

No decline in quality when switching back and forth between whatever ROM fits this device then.
Good to head and thanks for answering.
Sorry for the noob question but I'm trying to decide to keep the G3 or trade for OnePlus One. Taking good photos is important to me and I'd like to be able to do things like slow motion. 4k is not that important. I know some are using the moto camera but having trouble with video (which is also important to me). I'd really rather stay with a CM style OS if possible
So keep the G3 and run stock or trade for OnePlus?
If you want a great camera on AOSP, you might as well ditch the G3. You could still take pretty good pictures in good conditions, but will have problems in low light, high contrast, and anything requiring fine details.
You can't take advantage of the G3 camera's processing and hardware on anything but stock-based ROMs. People will tell you the M9 camera port is as good as stock, but they're not photographers with any sort of discerning eye. There's no comparison. No camera apps can match what's possible on a stock-based ROM.
That being said, the OPO camera isn't that great. It would be silly to trade to that phone for the camera IMO.
Some stock-based ROMs for the G3 are getting closer to AOSP-style. The latest Cloudy build is pretty good, and there are a few theme options. You just have to choose what sort of trade-off you want --
+ smoother AOSP ROM with crappy camera, or
+ decent ROM with great camera
I'd go for the latter, but I'm a photographer and bought the G3 for its camera.
Thanks for the feedback. I've tried some ROMS though I have not tried Cloudy. I'm not a photographer and my eye is not that discerning.
I've recently bought s7 (G930F) off eBay (upgrade from s4), flashed LineageOS and was shocked with poor camera performance vs stock TouchWiz one. I've tried some cameras from Play with no improvement, ended up flashing HTC Camera replacement floating around but it's got 2 issues as far as I can tell: can't use my sdxc card and its quality is still subpar to stock. I've been running AOSP on my devices for a long time so it's not the app - itcs the resulting images that are very grainy and blury.
Any advise/ideas on how to address camera issues on s7 in AOSP?
You have to use the stock camera app & touchwiz ROM for full camera quality, the drivers and framework required to drive the camera properly are only in the stock camera app which only runs on TouchWiz ROMs
You will never get full quality on AOSP ROMs no matter which camera app you use, it must be the stock Samsung camera app
Hi, I'm considering getting a pixel 3 as the prices have come down quite a bit.
From my experience with oneplus and Sony the cameras aways take a massive hit when you flash a custom Rom. Given the gcam apk is available does the pixels have this or the gcam performance is the same whether or not it a stock Rom?
When you Install the gcam the quality is the same.
And when you Install an magisk modul the gcam has the same Performance, But even without this Module the Performance is Almost equal.The difference in speed is barely noticeable.
I am thinking of applying Pixel Experience Custom ROM or LineageOS ROM in my PIXEL 2 when they will be available with Android 12. Should I be concerned with the chance of the degradation of Pixel's camera quality? Does a Custom ROM harm the pixel photo capturing capability? Do the HDR+ work?

I've had much the same question, from what little bit of experience I have, there seems to be very little difference.
Cheers
I can't use miui at all, it droves me crazy, using pixel experience is incredible on this phone but the quality 9f the camera is awful, is there a way yet to port the original camera to a custom rom?
You can use ANX Camera white PixelExpierence - although you have to root your phone and not everything works a the moment...
