I know camera performance when using a custom ROM is worse than when using the stock ROM partly because the stock camera app has been optimised to the hardware on the phone. However, is there any difference in image quality from photos when using a third party camera app on a stock ROM, to using the same app on a custom ROM?

I'm well aware of Camera FV-5.
The question I was asking was if Camera FV-5 (or any third party app) works better on a stock ROM than a custom ROM (or is it's image quality the same; no matter what ROM is used)?

It'll always be better on stock..
But to be honest besides 60fps video the images aren't dissimilar.
Try the modded Google Camera.

Honestly haven't noticed mate. I'm about to revert back to pure fusion as the battery on no limits in comparison is huge, I've gone from 10 hours screen on time to 6 with no limits..
Same apps, same options, same theme, thought stock-ish would be massively superior in terms of battery performance? Lol it's not..anyway, off topic

do you guys use alternatives to the stock Camera?
been thinking of trying Focal but just wanted to get a sense of what else do you guys use
(assuming that there's always a better alternative to the Samsung apps)

I'd like to find a camera that supports video at 60fps. Focal has a setting but it does not work.
Stock camera does not remember the 60 fps setting for me. I have to set it every time I open the cam :_(

the stock Camera app tends to cause 100% brightness upon launch

Is there any camera app for CM12? like in touchwiz, i mean more advance than the CM camera app??!!
Google play is the place to try. Maybe google search for "the best camera".
There are lots of Top 10's about those kind of things.
Looking for an answer as well. What I'm really looking for is a camera app that can match the night mode of the touchwiz camera.
if i found great camera app, it will for sure missing the camcorder!!

Camera FV-5 And Cinema FV-5.
but it's a paid app. you know what to do already. (if you know what i mean)
but it has no front camera feature. so just use the normal aosp camera for front cam features.
that's what i'm using when i'm on AOSP Builds such as CM11,CM12,Carbon Rom etc.... :good:
good luck
Can anyone who's using GPE by Danvdh tell me how the OnePlus One camera app is compared to the Motorola and Google Camera? I always wondered and now I won't have to start a new thread

Found a really promising camera alternative for low light photography. App is called "A better camera."
What I really missed though is the touch to focus feature from the TW Camera in night mode. So far, every app I've tried won't work with touch to focus in night mode.

Hello fellas!
we all know that photo quality isn't the same as stock running roms like AOSP\CM.
So i want to share this google+ group with you:
https://plus.google.com/communities/105192843938506663262
Let's make it clear, i m just sharing a link, THIS IS NONE OF MY WORK.
Big up to this amazing guy that work hard for the android comunity.
Currently i'm running the HTC 10 port on mokee rom, photo quality it's defenitly better than Snap Camera!!
To all the google addicts, google camera can work on our device you need only an older apk.
Link: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-7-008-release/
this one runs without problems on all roms, the newers are all giving problems.
I hope u find this helpfull
Someone Can share some feedback?
Next week I will try Slim ROM with HTC 9 port
I'd like to find some good camera app with the focus peaking, but until now I had no success.

I know that mostly Custom ROMs have Snapdragon camera, I was saying that mabye I'll try to use Camera FV-5 on some custom to see if there will be manual focus at least (I don't think there will be focus peaking tho). In MIUI installing FV-5 there's not even manual focus, instead on MIUI camera app there's manual focus and focus peaking too.

After Leaving MIUI 8 and choosing CM13 on my mi4i , i just felt miui camera app is awesome. A d after 2 weeks trying every 3rd party camera app, luckily i found a good alternative to this, and that is OPPO camera mod, you can find oppo camera app searching in threads. That works great but i have downloaded a oppo camera version that looks same as R7 camera app. You can try that searching in forums.

Actually, Oppo camera app have more features than miui camera app, like HDR, HD pic (more sturations for cropping), slow shutter (lightning painting), Gif, doubke exposure etc etc... All you need is to download 2 apks, 1 for app 1 for plugins.. thats it. I HAVE UPLOADED 2 CAMERA APP INTERFACE SCREEN SHOTS. THATS Mi4i. CM13

If you enable camera2 api, all apps that support it will work. Otherwise, only MIUI camera has it (proprietary api?).

Why custom ROM camera cannot defeat stock ROM camera quality?
Because it can and does? Stock rom has awful side effects like aggressive sharpening and noise reduction. I hated it and had to mod my system files to get decent photos. Unless the custom Rom you are using has bad camera library files or something, I don't see why it wouldn't be a major improvement over stock.
I know some custom roms, like the pixel experience one, are supposed to have camera2 and HDR+ out of the box. Maybe it depends on the rom?

Can you post these mods here and also if you can ask savitar to mod camera lib callibration as pixel2, cause both got the same sensor and having pixel2 callibration will surely improve camera quality.

Actually, Savitar said the Pixel 2 calibration was worse than the one he's been using, aside from adc noise profiling and color calibration. The rest was unusable/ didn't enhance.
There's a thread where I've tried to gather relevant links and information about the camera here:

Hey guys, I hope you're all doing well.
I've been wondering if there is any way to switch from MIUI to another room but retaining the same camera quality, I've tried with LOS 16, Pixel experience and xiaomi.eu with the anx camera mod, they're all really awesome ROMs but I've noticed that the camera quality is a little bit worse in detail and color than the stock rom one at best.
I'll be thankful if anyone could guide me in this subject.
Thank you for your time. Cheers.
Why don't you try a camera app with full manual controls?
Like Snap Camera HDR, it's awesome & takes great pics.

I've tried but can't get any more detail/quality than it has, most of them don't even let me use the 48mp camera. I've heard that it has to do with the camera libraries that aren't open source or something like that. But I would like to know if there's any custom ROM that has the same quality as stock or if there's any way or something to be installed to get that. Or if I'm stuck with MIUI if I want camera performance.
Thank you for your patience, I don't really understand these matters but I'm looking forward to learn by asking.

Yes, as I said in the first post, I already tried using anx camera but the detail in pictures somehow is not the same, I tested it side by side with a stock RN7 and a LOS16 RN7 both at the same time and there was a lot of detail lost. Maybe I did a bad flashing or something, I don't know, but this loss in detail is normal?
On a side note, is there a module or a zip or something that I can flash in order to make MIUI look more like stock? I don't like the inbuilt theming that it has, as it only reskins the system.
Thank you guys

ichundwir said:
Hello, first ... The gcam versions are great and much better than the stock cam because much more details in the pic. Big thanks to the developer.
.
I tested nearly all..from 6.1 to now 7, from all modders
.
But i only see a different in the awb and sharpness up to the lib.
So ..for me.. there is no great different. 7. looks for me like the 6.3 versions (picquality)
.
I miss really a pro mode with manual iso and shuttertime.
.
That together works for me in no versions from all modders. Is there a chance to get it. Like in the stockcam?
.
What you think?

I had BSG version on my phone until 2 days ago. I'm not really a camera guy, I don't need 2 cameras on my phone. So I uninstalled. Then I noticed increase in overall snappiness, more free memory, and less storage cache. Also, as I wrote, stock camera was poor in the beginning but now it's not that bad after all these updates.
