Camera vs Custom Rom ;) - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi
I used to use a lot of custom rom(s), and have always enjoyed it
Promblem has often been, youll lose the build in / Stock camera when installing custom roms.
If I install a custom rom on my P9Lite, will I be in a similar situation?
AkA getting a cool rom, but losing on the camera?
Please let me hear your experience

Yes you'll lose the stock camera app until someone decides to port it.

Lg g3 stock camera

Has anyone discovered the lg g3 stock camera codes? It would be useful if we can get a small team to work or if there is another team we should help them more. Please write any comment or ideas to get this stock camera available for custom rom. It would be appreciated from a lot of people.
yes please if only there's a way to port stock camera drivers to aosp-based roms i'm pretty sure everyone would be grateful
That's why I want to get a team started on it.

yes. From what I've seen you need LG stock framework included in stock-based roms for the camera to function at is best. AOSP drivers from Google are nowhere close. If there's a way to port the stock framework over...
I not sure, please find other xda developer that can help us,because I don't want to say something does not real or that's a maybe
Please guys, use the search fonction of the forum...
Many people ask many time if it's possible to port stock camera, but we can't than we don't have lg source code !
look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/devs-only/camera-hal-caf-t2981136
Is anyone trying to get those codes?
I think everyone is in agreement that getting the stock camera ported over to AOSP would be the biggest news since the release of the G3... it's the primary reason people keep going back to stock (well for me anyway) but I've given up at this point...
I so agree but we need to figure out the lg sources
Only LG can share their source, and they will not. We ask them for the source since there are AOSP rom on LG G2...
You can do petition or what ever you want, but only LG have the knowledge for that.
Can we not figure it out by modifying the camera or we can ask the source provider to tell us or something like that.

Which Rom is good for s4 I9505 and without problems

Plz guys help to find good Rom for my S4 without more problems
you should say more about what you're looking for in a rom. do you want Samsung features and touchwiz or a pure Android AOSP or something more modified like cyanogenmod ?
only a Samsung based rom will give you full features in the camera or MHL support. AOSP and CM will be usually faster and give more free internal space. no rom is going to be perfect though as that is also a measure of personal preference and custom roms often have tiny bugs in them.
usually talk of which rom is the best is discouraged here, we are urged to try some for ourselves and make our own choice...
Stock and Unrooted is the best...

Lol. Seriously?
What harm does root access and debloated roms do?
It is like blaming the gun and not the person who pulled the trigger when someone is killed. :/
And FYI due to the heavy amounts of bloatware and other unwanted stuff, the performance is slow in stock roms and also not all of them are stable.

Yes i think is good way but lollipop still have problems like when i reboot my phone is forget passwords wifi ...
Just stay on debloated stock ROMs with stock or close-to-stock kernel. That's it.

Which should be the best (working) ROM for Samsung J5 (SM-J500f)?

I triedAOSP and Lineage OS. But both of them showed the fading and discoloration of the screen during boot, meaning that they were compatible. I am currently downloading the Stock firmware but would like to know whether there are any better ROMs out there than these.
Edit: The stock firmware is giving invalid zip error.

No, read OP, you need Lollypop firmware, just install 5.1 then install this Ron or any time that requires firmware 5.1
You also need recovery compatible with 5.1 like TWRP from Vince (OFFICIAL TWRP) you can download from TWRP site https://twrp.me/devices/j5lte.html
It all depends, if you want to have great camera or you are into taking pictures, never flash AOSP roms, because their camera is a loot worst compared to touchwiz camera (samsungs camera app is optimized like hell)
If you are curious and want to unveil your phone's power I suggest you AOSP/Lineage based ROMs.
Camera isn't enhanced as stock propietary crapwiz one, but works fine. If you love pictures, better you go with a pro Cybershot camera or similar.
I prefer paying the price of freedom and use free software than stay tied to proprietary closed source crapwiz.

Yup it almost works on all Samsung MM based Custom Roms or Ports like A5UX Rom , J2UX Rom etc.
Im also pretty keen to know what ROM you guys think is most suitable ? I am currently using stock 5.1.1 rom on J500F, anything better out there ? Would doing a factory reset on stock 5.1.1 and removing bloatware maybe be the best ? Not trying to hijack the thread but as mentioned im also looking for something as stable with less bloatware and better battery life. Thank You !

You can't get better battery life than stock lollipop + hard debloat, period.
Lollipop is the best for me, plus camera sucks on all custom roms
the smoothest rom is XeonHD , and AOSPextended both are extremely optimized except the camera is not that good , if you don't take pics often i suggest that you install either of them
AOSP-CAF based, are the goods. XenonHD is the better Lineage based rom. You have many options to choose one that fits your needs. Camera is fine, I don't complain about that, You should try to choose the better one that fits your needs.

Thanks for the reply Ragazzza, could i ask which method you used to debloat ? Also did you possibly install a custom recovery and root the phone ?

Picture quality is extremely important for me, i am leaning towards stock.
Have you ran into any problems with XenonHD Taivo ? You say the camera is fine, do you mean its not that much worse than with the stock rom but a little bit of a degradation ? Thanx
i didn't run into any problem in xeon an excellent rom , i recommend it

i could always give them both a try, you guys recommend this method to debloat ? https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
Then just need a recovery that will work with stock and XeonHD rom

@Ragazzza debloat zip is very nice if you're in stock. XenonHD satisfied me, very nice and smooth ROM. You should give a try to test by yourself. My better pictures I got with my Cybershot camera. Pictures are fine for daily use, and you have Vince's TWRP that works in lollipop and marshmallow, you choose the correct for your device. And from within TWRP you could debloat too, using the embedded explorer or flashing Ragazzza zip or whatever you want even with no root in your system.

Thanks Taivotat, im going to give it a try when my warranty is up, still have a remainder of 4 months, for now i want to backup>factory reset>debloat, anything other than debloat.zip that you recommend on stock rom without twrp ?

Without twrp, better you try that no root debloat you show us before..
And if you follow correctly the steps to flash twrp, dont need to be afraid. Its from twrp that you could flash a debloater zip, for example, even without root...
You can stay with stock debloated, twrp and no root.
Hope you understand.

2 Reasons that i prefer Stock Rom, Please help if someone solved it.

1. In every custom rom that i installed, I have seen that Hike Messenger is now Starting WHY?
2. In every 64bit rom our stock camera is not working, Can anyone port our stock camera app to 64bit roms ?:

1. I'm not sure which ROMs you've flashed, but I haven't encountered any that install Hike messenger. I don't use the default messaging app anyway; I use Google Messenger.
2. Camera issues will eventually be fixed. Until then, use either Footej, Open Camera, or Cameringo.
I have used lineage 14.1 nightly, Resurrection Remix 5.8.5, Viper OS.
In all of them HIKE is not working.
HIKE is not just a messaging app it's like whatsapp, Teligram,etc
Regarding Hike, it's an app that appears to have frequent issues with custom ROMs. One workaround has been to take a Titanium Backup of a working Hike install from a stock ROM and restore it onto a custom ROM. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75208409&postcount=6216 https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75510315&postcount=6328
I recall Silesh Nair may have included a Hike fix in Invicta a while back but without his commit changes, I don't know the exact fix or whether it could be implemented into future ROMs. Else, you'd have to ask the Hike developers to see if they can do anything.

About hike, it is problem with codes nougat for athene only. Hike works excellent in other devices custom roms. As developer copy the tree of device for there roms, bugs too get copy with it. In oreo build hike is working properly.
About camera, its an issue but gcmod is working properly with every 2nd picture green

Yeah ..You are right . Stock is most stable and of course best battery life without any modifications required , never the camera of the custom rom can match with stock.
But the desire of latest android makes us flasholic of custom room?
