Hi, Just a query about the camera on Note 3.
I once owned a sony, And rooting and flashing broke camera quality unless ya backed up the TA partition first, Ive noticed since flashing my Note 3 with darkwolf rom and also flashing the camera mod available, ie, S7 camera, the quality isnt what i would expect, Low light conditions its pretty poor to be honest.
So i was wondering, Is there any info on the Note 3 camera that i should know, ie, does flashing custom roms break quality, is stock camera better than the available mods etc etc, because i did own a galaxy s4 once upon a time, and the camera quality on that was a lot better than this note 3 camera, as a test i installed the LENOVO supercamera and instantly noticed an improvement in quality, tho still really poor in low light, or am i expecting too much from it, because even the camera on my Iphone 5s, 8mp, takes a a better picture.
Anyone any advice?, is there a good camera mod available to really improve the situation or should i go back to stock camera?

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.

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.

Hi. I have been very impressed by my former Note2 LTE. I can focus and snap any picture I want, especially of human faces and moving animals. However, my S4 LTE seems to take a second to focus and shutter to snap, resulting in missing the person's expression i want to take and results also in some blurry images. I tried other apps like Fx camera, but no improvement. Only Fast camera app can solve it except the maximum resolution is 2.1 mp. Even my lousy iphone 5 camera is faster and takes nicer pictures. On the whole, taking still shots of sceneries result in nice pictures but it is just too slow. Is it software issue? Flashed newer firmwares but still the same. I find it distressing as i take pictures of my kids alot. Thank you
sadly that's pretty common case for all S4 variants, including my i9500 and samsung really needs to do something about it. Custom roms or rooting your phone and removing some bloatware might help, but i haven't rooted my phone yet so i am not too sure.
Mine's rooted. On stock debloated slim rom xxuame2. No camera improvements at all
so i've always sorta liked stock roms, but the one thing that shy'd me away was the camera, cuz as far I understand it loses its strength or at least the pics dont look as good on stock roms. So i was wondering if there are any camera apps that produce close enough quality to samsung camera pics?
Hi all, I 've been thinking of buying a new phone & I really like the g2 very much but the only thing that is stopping me is the camera performance.
Can someone please tell me after the Jishu/xdadebb mod how is the camera performance under low light, how is the autofocus in low light also is the continuous autofocus in the video problem resolved. How much is the shutter lag after the mod.
I really want to buy this device for the camera & its under my budget if the camera ain't good enough even after the mods I may go with oppo find 7a/oneplus one which are in the same budget but have better camera.
I dont capture my photos in low light. But the camera is pretty amazing with xdadebb mod, and Mi2Raw enables the G2 to capture raw footage as well.
The G2 and G3 has the same camera sensor, just that the G3 has a Z-Axis image stabiliser and laser autofocus. So if I were you, I'll go look at those camera comparisons on review sites comparing the G3, OnePlus One and the Oppo.
Edit: Video performance is pretty good too. xdadebb camera mod allows for tap to focus in video to focus your subject and it works well. It has object tracking too!
Edit 2: With dorimanx's kernel, I was able to turn down the mic gain when I was at a concert. That + the stereo recording = pretty awesome recording
Thanks @lowjinyik.
Anyone else using these mods please comment about the low light performace after the mod.
I haven't tried taking pictures in low-light conditions yet, I should, will do and compare later but under bright, sunshine outdoor, with Normal mode, I see virtually no difference in term of performance and image quality. There are several features that I haven't tried out yet.

The low light camera quality is good. The mod makes very little difference to low light pictures.
Thanks guys for your responses. I think I might go with oppo find7. It's better than the g2 in every aspect except battery life & OS updates. Which can be taken care by the VOOC charger & custom roms respectively.
I installed CM12 stable on my K3 note and so far its been pretty good performance wise compared to VibeUI.
However, I feel the camera quality has gone down drastically
I tried installing snapit camera on CM rom which i think is doing little better, but still i feel quality has gone down.
Is it just me, or cam quality in CM/AOSP roms is not that great ? And more importantly any fixes ?
tried differents versions of the snapit camera? Ive read somewhere that the IQ of the picture can be different. Also Lspeed mod disable the compression of the photo that seems to be enabled in most roms.
