Does having a custom non-Touchwiz ROM change the camera performance? Like Cyanogen mod or AOKP, I'm not entirely sure what a ROM changes. Would the quality of the other modes change (HDR, HDR video, etc)?
We'll never have sammy camera on aosp/cm. You need tw framework for it to run. Thats the only downside of aosp/cm. But honestly im on rooted stock and im loving everything about this phone. Ive ran aosp/cm on all my phones and hated touchwiz. The s4 has definately made me content for now.
ATT S4 Rooted. Beastin.
4.2.2
I understand that the Samsung camera application cannot be ported over, but is the performance of the camera still the same? Basically do pictures taken still look like the same quality? My other major question is what modes are available? Other than just normal is there HDR, night, etc.

I flashed CM 10.1 about 1 hour ago, shortly before deleting my only System files on it (DOH!). Anyway, I noticed the camera wasn't good at all in CM 10.1. I dont know if its just the way it looks, I didnt take a single picture, but I didnt like it and its one of the reasons im going back to stock.
Do you know if the camera quality will get better?
Just install a different camera app from the Play Store. I use Fotor and it takes excellent pics.

Hey guys,
since the AOSP/CM Camera isnt that good (and the "ported" stock LG Camera isnt that good aswell) i was looking around the internet and found this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.xplod.focal
I'm wondering if the app is good and worth any try?
So, since we know that CM rom's are currently still in "beta" stage maybe we can do something for the camera.
Did anyone try this yet?
Don't use focal unless you like deleting pictures inadvertently. It has what looks like a review mode that in reality is deleting pictures without indicating it is doing so. "review" your whole list of pictures = delete your whole list of pictures.
Hi,
Which camera app is the best for costum ROMS? Im on cyanogenmod 11 right now and original camera is not even close to LG stock one, and is really really slow. Take pictures [focus] in 3 seconds!
I ve installed Jishnu's Camera [LG Camera F40] and this one is even worst than cyanogen original camera! I did a lot of test and always Jishnu's Camera LG Camera F40 was worst than cyanogen one which is also worst than LG stock. I cant even take pictures in 16:9 format and both of them, I really like cyanogenmod rom and dont want to go back to lg stock rom just because of camera (which is important for me).

A Better Camera is really good and free on Play Store. There are some threads in Themes & Apps section that have cameras like Lenovo and the new stock Google cam, just do a search in there and in here for "camera".
See if this works for you:

Thanks for answer, still cant get quality of stock ROM cam and 4k video recording . How it is possibile to no option to transfer original stock camera. Is there any camera to costum ROM taking 16:9 photos?
You tried Google's new camera? Testing it out atm and it's rather nice.
Doesn't take 16:9 pictures yet but there is an update coming.

As of right now you cannot get 4k recording on a non kit kat stock based ROM. The best you can do is either go back to lg kit kat or use the jellybean lg cam I posted.

Couldn't find an answer to this question I think is so so important,especially when putting a new ROM rather than roots +Xposed for instance..
So please guys do other Roms( like the ported nightly cm and dirty unicorns etc. )
Actually have a better camera app/experience with them?
Working manual controls like iso and shutter speed?
No problem with raw?
And just overall quality?
Been looking for an answer for months now to this question..so please help
Using your camera is the same on any ROM. Moto Camera can even be installed from the play store if that's your preferred camera app.
it really depends on the camera app you use more than the ROM. Try out a few different apps, like OpenCamera or Qualcomm's snapdragon camera (you'll have to find the APK on this site and install it)
I have used many ROMs based on Lineage OS here.
Testing camera performance especially front camera for selfie.
MIUI camera delivers exceptionally amazing selfies.
I have tested Open Camera on MIUI and the selfie quality went bad, selfies became dull as same as they are in Lineage cameras.
This means the App is the key to better selfies.
If its possible to Port that app, Many users on internet willing to donate for the same.
Also this will improve overall device feel and experience on LineageOS.
If this thread becomes capable to attract at least one developer who shows interest in this we will be lucky.
Participate with your ideas and try to attract Developers here.If you are willing to Donate for this project kindly do mention.
I've seen this happen on every Xiaomi phone I've owned. On all of them there's a thread of people really wanting a port of the MIUI camera, but on none of them is it possible. The MIUI camera is part of the MIUI framework and won't work without it. So unless someone makes a Magisk module of the MIUI framework that plays nicely with AOSP and ports the camera it won't be possible
Guys please participate in this thread.
Participation is only key to get Dev attention.

I just found this MIUI5 port that works on Marshmallow (I don't know if works in Nougat): (Sharing)(APP) MIUICamera App
Maybe this could help to find a way to port the newer versions.

Not useful, people who used it are saying it's working as a normal camera app only.
And I tried, not working in my phone.

I think that is just the app, it doesn't include the low level firmware optimisations. It doesn't work on the MI5,and it's based on MIUI5 which is 4years old. The fact that we haven't made progress post that is testiment to how difficult it is to port the camera firmware. Atm the only solution is dual bootiing, and using a MIUI based ROM if you go out to take pictures (like on a holiday). It's ****ty, but it's what we're stuck with. Google Camera works OK on Lineage for quick snaps anyway.
Wait for next update of the snap camera. I am sure it will rock
I have realized that MIUI has really developed its camera app over the time, even if some other camera app are launched. They will not catchup with this app. Hence if we have a scope to use this existing piece of work we must port it rather than focusing on other means.
I just hope some developer has seen this thread and considering to take on this project.
will a camera port be ever available?
I really like the MIUI camera because the focus peaking option, who else ?
guys I have talked to developers, they are saying that it's not possible to port this camera.
And if it was possible, someone in XDA community would have already ported it like these is Google camera.
So if you want great photos, be on MIUI.
Guys, Sad news is Developers have denied to make any such port.
They say MIUI camera has something to do with Miui framework also this camera is Closed Source.
Sadly in summary If you want to use your phone for camera stay on MIUI only.
Use raw shooting for max quality for both AOSP and MIUI. As it pulls raw data without any touch you can get superrior quality compared to MIUI camera app.
