Reliable camera? - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

This is no real fault of a particular rom but more every custom rom I've tried on the 6t. I can not find a camera that fully works. I always end up back on OOS. I'm self employed and do my own marketing, I take photos and videos of projects before, during and after completion and while I've tried various cameras, some work better, some not, sadly after some time they all either stop working, videos lag, or simply the camera stops connecting randomly. I say all the above, not as criticism but for advice from other users. Do you use a camera that fully works, is stable and has decent quality? If so, name it please. Thanks

I have been using the gcam that is included with the XXxNoLimits Magisk module for some time and had no problems.
I am rooted, using the Omega kernel, OOS 9.0.17, and xXx. There is also a thread on xda for the latest gcam port.
I believe you can also download the gcam google app from the play store. I am as un googled as I can be so I am not 100%on this one.
I was planning on installing Lineage, but now that I have this set up with the debloating and tweaks for the battery PLUS the gcam( best I have found ) I am a happy camper.
Hope there is something here that might help.

Thanks for the reply. I am on OOS Q at the moment and have debloated it using the magisk module and you are correct, it's a lot better but I'm after more pure Android ROMs. I've tried about every version of gcam I've found with different configs based off others recommendation but they always end up not working eventually.

google camera for op2

hey bros, does enyone knows how to make google camera work on custom roms?
usually it just works on most custom roms... have you tried just flashing it with a gaps package that includes it? that should work. but then again, I've never had an issue with it when I installed it from the playstore either. it should work with no issues. Did you check to make sure all the correct permissions are set for it? if permissions aren't correct it will force close
Having the same issue on RR official. App requests permissions, once you have given them it crashes and crashes again whenever you load it up.

The solution is in the post above yours. Stop seeking...
As another user said before, this one should work:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...era-4-1-006-126161292-2-android-apk-download/
okey, so 4.1 version works indeed, but why newer versions don't work?
i would recommend you to flash STOCK GAPPS along with Any ROM which will replace the default camera application in the ROM to the Google Camera one which you can update later from the Play store itself

Latest Google Camera versions do not work because they require camera HAL3:
https://source.android.com/devices/camera/camera3.html
Seems like no one has so far managed to get HAL3 working properly on custom OP2 Nougat roms. Devs have tried to enable HAL3 multiple times on OP2 roms, but have always reverted back to HAL1. In case of HAL3, the photos in portrait orientation are scrambled, and some apps have focusing issues. The most important benefit of HAL3 is the support of capturing RAW images. Other benefits include better photo sphere support, etc.
Latest HAL3 enabled rom release I know of is RR 5.8.2 from 25.02:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862705912
On that one the latest Google Camera 4.3 works, but portrait orientation pictures are messed up. Also RAW image colors are screwed up in OP Cam app.
I hope that the HAL3 issues are fixed after/if Oneplus releases Nougat for OP2, as currently it seems like it is either too difficult for devs to fix it or even impossible.

Since OOS3.5.8 sources has been released and OP2 has HAL3 support for quite a long time, do you think some of the custom nougat roms could take this advantage to enable HAL3 supporting? And have you heard anything about it? I want to switch to custom nougat rom but camera functions always make me go back to OOS.

OxygenOS vs. LineageOS

I know that the OnePlus 1 (originally) came with Cyanogenmod but then Cyanogenmod shut down, branching into LineageOS and OnePlus made OxygenOS. However, I don't know which features LineageOS has that OxygenOS doesn't and what LineageOS doesn't have that OxygenOS has. I'm not sure if I should switch from OxygenOS to LineageOS. Could anyone tell me the pros and cons of each and their recommendation?

I prefer the customisation and feel of aosp, it's just my preference, there is no best rom or OS, the problem for me and many more with aosp and Los is the inability to use the camera as expected.
Fusion is probably the best rom as in non OOS but has the camera from it which works nearly perfect
Your best bet is to use stock OOS long enough to get a good feel for it then make a nandroid backup and flash Lineage. That way you can decide for yourself and it just takes a few minutes to go back to OOS if you decide you like it better than Lineage. I've tried a number of custom ROMs but haven't found one I liked better than OOS + Blu Spark yet. A lot of people like Pure Fusion but I couldn't get even a decent phone signal with that ROM. It seems to be incompatible with my phone carrier.
How is the OOS-camera-app with AOSP-roms?
I see there is magisk-modules for custom roms you can flash via TWRP.
Is the the same quality compere to OOS?

Imho, nothing compares to oos stock camera, not even the modified Google camera. It's coming along but I was using it on lineage for a few days and felt the picture quality was definitely lacking.
As for the OP, the best advice has been given, play with OOS, tweak it to your liking and then back it up and go try it with lineage. I went back to OOS From lineage because lineage is still very new for our device and it has flaws that I didn't want to deal with on my daily driver. In time, I'm 99% certain I will jump to lineage because I think it's great; but for now on my op5 it's oos plus blu-spark.
(Plus I'm hoping @eng.stk will make a LOS kernel (don't kill me man lol))

Don't want to go OT, buty blu_spark custom is fully compatible with LOS ( I even merged in r36 the swap key keycode from LOS that was missing ).
LOS is where I usually test my custom stuff.

If you wanted the OOS camera, you could use an APK Extractor and back up the APK and install it after installing a custom ROM.

Feel free to use the search button on my thread.
I am a long time custom ROM flashoholic, and had custom ROMs on every phone I could.
OOS is the first stock OS that satisfies my needs for customization, features and the lack of bloat.
I recommend using stock with Magisk, as you pretty much have all the features from OOS and all the possibilities from a custom ROM.
The only thing lacking for me is the "long volume press skip track" feature, but I have that on my headphones (just not on the phone itself).
Benefit is that you still can receive updates (just reflash Magisk) and camera quality stays.
I cant really give any valid reason for switching to a custom OS besides dropped mainstream support, and I think that shouldnt happen for at least 2-3 more years. (In which time you will probably get a new phone )
In short: LOS is more up to date, and better battery life but slower app openings, and maybe more bugs (i didn't notice any yet)

Doesn't work quite like that, when you extract the camera and try to use it outside oos, it fails; unless someone has a find a way to do it.

No, you can make Apks that depend on device specific framework libraries. They'll only work if the libraries are there.
Now you can copy framework libraries, but in the OOS camera case, you also need modifications to the kernel and to Android to make it work.
In short, your ROM has to support it.
The only ROM I know that kinda support the OOS cam is PureFusion. And even, the smile capture and a few other minor things still do not work.

As mentioned, APKs may depend on specific libraries or frameworks. Some apps don't need specific libraries or frameworks. OOS Camera does. Try extracting the APK and install it on your Fire.
Try the Google Dialer. Try Google Camera.

Closest ROM to stock Oneplus 6t - without Gapps

Hi all!
I recently switched my OnePlus 6T stock rom to LineageOS but the camera is all buggy and it's quite awful to use.
My main idea was to limit the number of Google Apps installed on the phone and that was most of all.
I tried to search the roms available for OnePlus 6t, found a few of them, but they mostly have a tons of other changes that I'm not interested in.
So I'm hoping that you'll recommend me a - well-working on my 6T - ROM without Google Apps and the original Camera app.
Thanks !

Here you go no gapps
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...xxx-nolimits-1-0-speed-ram-optimized-t3799167
I had a similar experience with Lineage. Did not like it at all. My solution was to go back to the factory rom, root, use Titanium to go in and delete all the google stuff I can get away with. Unfortunately I have several apps that will not work without googleplay, or google services. I also downloade app opps app and used it to limit what apps can access and do what. Amazing how many apps want access to contacts, location, phone state, etc without user permission. I still have google on my phone, but it is limited and restricted. I downloaded all my apps through apk mirror, aurora store, and apk updater, never logged into my google account so I look like an anonymous (kinda) user. Maybe something here that might help you get where you want to be.
Thanks for the reply everyone.
I was hoping to find a rom really close to the stock one with just the gapps (and the OnePlus app) removed.
But since it's apparently not available, I noticed the Syberia Rom that might be interesting (OTA, have the Oneplus camera app)... maybe worth a try.

Most of custom ROMs come without gapps, or should. You should search for a ROM Micro-G compatible to be able to get rid of gapps and still use some Google applications.
Pure 'stock' ROM doesn't exist anymore as people rarely agree to use a pure AOSP without additional features. What is the most close to that are the 'Pixel' like ROMs.

Stock Camera on Custom ROMs.

I know, I know, I'm on XDA so I must want the GCAM mod all the way!
I've managed to install the Pixel Experience ROM on my Mi Mix 3 5G and I'm loving what I see so far, I just miss the stock camera. I've extracted the APK from the stock ROM but it won't install on my Pixel Experience ROM. It's throwing up the error "App not installed" when I try to install the extracted APK. I assume this is possibly due to it trying to save in the same folder as the 'stock' camera that comes preinstalled with the Pixel Experience ROM.
Does anyone have an installable APK for the stock camera or suggest any way of me editing the APK to be able to install it?
Thank you!
I don't know if this is exactly what you were after but I tried it out yesterday and so far so good.
More info in the Pixel Experience thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi.../rom-pixel-experience-mix-3-5g-t4131417/page2
You should use anx camera with this Rom instead of Google camera
To anyone using this rom, anxcamera is a must have! It's the miui camera ported over to AOSP and everything is working fine (incudes front flash, 960fps slow motion, 4k h265, filters and effects and the lot) I haven't experienced any bugs with it either and the quality in on par with the Google camera app. Download from the official website as the developer closed his xda forum

I've tried a few gcam's and anx, but all I get is a static image in Camera. If I move the phone around, the first image that locked in the camera is static, it doesn't change. And no, it's not an image I took from pushing the camera button, it's static from starting up the camera.
I don't seem to be able to get this to work. If anyone has any filenames of what I should download, that'd be really helpful! Or better yet, any links. I would really appreciate the help!

Preferred Custom Rom for POCO F2 Pro?

You have to use roms to see the advantages and disadvantages
I use Xiaomi.eu weekly and it better than stock. No adds, bloatware and other stuff..
MSM-Xtended is the only one I can suggest as it's the only non stock rom I've used. Everything is smoother with safetynet passing and widevine L1 out the box. Highly customizable and better battery over stock.

Thanks for the answer. I'd like to ask what's the deal with Widevine L1 in Xiaomi phones, does it come with the ROM? I have a LeMax2 and I've reflashed it in EDL and lost the L1 capabilities - no way to restore it also.
I remember the Sony days, unlocking bootloader would erase DRM.

To be honest I couldn't tell you. This is my first xiaomi phone and the only phone I've ever owned that didn't permanently lose L1 after unlocking the bootloader. If I had to guess, I would say this is so because Miui is infact a custom rom posing as stock
EU 12.0.8. I used to be a huge AOSP/LOS fan, but Control center and Floating windows in MIUI 12 are too convenient for me to ever consider going back that way.

I switched to crDroid. It's a very good rom, overall. No problems, the battery lasts much longer than with the stock ROM.
But I also find that these features are missing, especially the floating windows.

The drm info for the widevine l1 is stored in persist partition. If you lose the content of this partition, which is unique to each motherboard, you lose widevine l1.
So, my recommendation is to back it up before playing around with roms because some roms mess it up.
So, if the drm info is still intact in that persist partition, xiaomi allows you to hace widevine l1 even after unlock the bootloader. And using magisk with hide option, you should be good to go.
I just tried new OneOS from Spanish dev team. It seems this ROM is very perspective! Supports many languages including English.
Unfortunately, currently I got wiped TWRP after flashing this ROM, and when I tried to flash TWRP again, then ROM started bootlooping. The only way to fix is to flash China Stock ROM using MiFlashPro utility and then start over with installing TWRP and Root, etc.
But ROM itself works fine! With Magisk Canary and PropsConfig module configured for RedmiK30Pro I have passed SafetyNet.
It's bad that some devs don't show their work here on XDA and support for this phone is so fragmented over the internet, eg TWRP Pitchblack Recovery 3.0.0-UNOFFICIAL on 4PDA and ROM OneOS

I've been playing with Urnyx05 Gcam the camera works well, except the 64 megapixel camera doesn't seem to work. Otherwise it's pretty good. ANX Camera is also great, but found the pop up camera doesn't work for photos, but works for video and the wide angle doesn't work. So far I've just been using both cameras as between them everything works, but would be great if could get one app that works correctly with all the cameras.
I'm a fan of LineageOS, but I like changing the battery status bar and force back button kill app. CrDroid and a few ROMs based on LineageOS are pretty similar with a few addons. So I've been trying CrDroid and it works great. I've never used floating windows in MIUI and much prefer an open source OS.
I had MicroG working perfect on MIUI with the Play Store, but having issues getting it to work correctly on CrDroid. For privacy and better battery I'd definitely recommend looking at MicroG, though adds another layer of complexity.

So I've been trying CrDroid and it works great. I've never used floating windows in MIUI and much prefer an open source OS.
I had MicroG working perfect on MIUI with the Play Store, but having issues getting it to work correctly on CrDroid. For privacy and better battery I'd definitely recommend looking at MicroG, though adds another layer of complexity.

I feel you Bro. We can't have it all but we have one hell of a start. If the stock camera app gets ported to lineage based roms that will be a huge accomplishment(8k) even though gcam has its advantages. I'm sure we'll (community) will find a work around for MicroG.

it's funny how everyone here claims that custom roms have better battery than stock, but for me, stock give me two days and a half, sometimes three days in a row... so, i hard to believe that claim
