Hello there! :fingers-crossed: This thread is about photo comparing CM vs Stock. I've seen many users asking and won't flashing CM based ROMs on their OP3 because of camera quality. It is true , camera quality on stock OOS ROM is great. So im asking/ welcoming for users who have flashed & using CM bases ROM to share the photos they to compare the photo quality. So purpose of this thread is to help/ to get a better understanding about photo quality of CM based ROM. This will many of you guys to change their mind and flash CM ROMs..
1. Post only photos that have captured using CM based ROM
2. It would be great if you guys can post the current CM ROM you are using..
With today's nightly, all photo modes are supported with Snap.
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/154668/
This means that quality should be on par with OxygenOS now.
op3: Support for OP3 camera modes
* OnePlus decided that scene modes didn't really mean anything anymore
and used them for mode switching in their camera HAL. That's fine,
we can deal with it. And make new ones of our own.
* This patch will set up a number of useful modes:
- Auto: no magic besides lowlight fixups
- ClearShot: the "Super" multi-frame composite algorithm
- HDR: hipster ****
- Best Shot: auto-HDR and scene detection
- ChromaFlash: multi-frame night shot using flash
- Burst: enables continuous shot mode by long-press shutter

ChromaFlash sounds like a great feature!

Let's wait and see, the nightly should be available in a few hours.
I am still on OOS 3.2.2 because of the camera, any photos with the upcoming nightly are appreciated!

Do you mean the version that will come out? (I imagine tonight...)
Cmq, I enclose some of my test about different cameras I've tried; official rom CM13 by Grarak, build 2016 - 08-02.
Camera software tested:
A better camera
Cyanogen
Footej
Fv Room 5
Google camera
Manual camera
Open camera
Pro Shot
Photos taken in different situations with automatic settings; but in photographs containing plants and flowers you can see very well the artifacts caused by the software.
There is also a photo taken in raw with Pro Shot and then developed in PNG; it is not the highest quality, but the situation improves significantly.
P.S.: For proper evaluation, the pictures are to be displayed at 100% of their size (I use Photoshop).

I am talking about the nightly which is up next. It should be online in about two hours judging by cm's buildbot.
Currently the nightly for the op2 is being built.
edit: the nightly is building now, maybe an hour to go.
Quick suggestion guys,it would be great if you can upload it to imgur or and post something..Zip files also great to...Thank your guys help .. really appreciate..

wowwwww..Are those really from CM..Wooww..Great...Onemore request..It would be great if you can post some law light pics too.
In the 4th folder there are pictures taken in "low light" conditions, with ISO 2500. But I do not have photos taken at night because I formatted (I must now install the new cyanogen rom )
Ok, new test with new Cyanogen camera. You will find the information in the file.
Regarding the artifacts on plants (seen in previous photos) here's a slight improvement.

Camera is really great. I couldn't try low light photography. But i would say camera is 80%-90% closer to OOS..
PS
Camera has some exposure issue, focusing issue..So im back to OOS

In theory it should work on this device, right? I'm not sure if I installed it right but it doesn't seem to work yet for me. It's still in beta so that could change. This is the article for those that haven't seen it yet, https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-ported/
I'm stoked because my current Rom doesn't have hdr
Doesn't work here on lastest stable 8.2.5.0 build under android 6...
Snap camera give me good result anyway !!
I just tried it with the latest RRemix and it works like a charm. Really impressed with the detail it gets out. I hated the pictures made with the normal Google camera, especially since I was traveling these days and it's either an overexposed sky, or underexposed building that were on the picture. Now I can have the best of both worlds.
Then require Nougat ROM version !!
Thx for report

Hi. Can you post some pics? Maybe comparing to default and snap camera if possible. Thanks!
Sure thing, here is an album for you of some quick pictures I took. The difference is quite big and you can see it immediately.

Since I don't use the Snap Camera all too much, this is a huge improvement in picture quality. Especially how it gets the harsh lighting and sky to be correct.

Based off those samples it seems like Snap strikes a good middle ground. I used FV-5 and Open Camera and low light pictures would always be even darker than they appeared. I tried the modded Google Camera with HDR+ and while it does take better photos in darker surroundings it almost goes a bit too far.
Sure, but I'm not into changing apps and whatnot and setting up manual modes to get the most of my shots. With this, I get a good picture. And all I had to do was point and shoot. Good enough for me. Now I'm actually compelled to take more pictures, since it takes good pictures now.
So this doesn't work with the original ROM? Mine crashes straight away.

Doesn't work on the latest EPIC (7.7.20 MIUI) either. I assume it doesn't work because MIUI 8/9 is still based on Android 7.0 and this app was extracted from 7.1.2 (the app is a mod of Camera version 4.4.012 which requires 7.1+).
Hey Guys,
I wondering if I am missing the trick to this... I am running LOS so camera API2 enabled via HAL3 enabled = 1
But when I try to install the apk, I get the error:
App not Installed
The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name.
Any ideas? I really want to try this!
Install apk, enable camera API2, reboot.
Work on latest Epic ROM.
Not working on stock chinese MIUI 8.5.3.0(MAHCNED)....application crashes

Based on photos it's very clear that Google hdr+ captures a lot of detail from the sky, and that's what I missed a lot on standart camera app...

I'm running latest epic everything is fine and nice with Google photo app but the main camera app Force to close when I try to take a photo, it does however take videos normally. Do you know any workaround?
EDITED
Nevermind, clearing cache and data solves the issue !
MAN, finally we got a great HDR!!!
I'm very happy, this HDR IS AWESOME
I've been using the modded Google camera for a couple of days now on RR 5.8.4. I like it a lot! I can hardly believe that the photos, especially with HDR+ on (instead of HDR+ auto) were from my Mix.
Mostly everything works. Panorama, Photo Sphere, Lens Blur all work. I did find a couple of issues, though. The worst one is that the video camera, both in normal and slow motion mode, crashes probably 9 times out of 10. It seems to work, but after the filming is over the app crashes when the video is saved. There is a file saved that is unreadable. This is the only issue that prevents me from making this app my default camera.
A minor issue, that's probably fixable with a build.prop change, is the selfie cam takes upside down photos.

Sad news...
Hi guys,
I thought i just keep posting the new Google Camera versions modified by BSG. @snowwolf725 seems to upload them on Androidfilehost. So credits to him.
Hope it is okay if I post them here. There are 2 versions now:

Changelog:
Code:
[B]3.2 all in one [/B]
- lots of custom settings
- honestly losing the overview and google translate is not the best
- basically an updated version of the one @sergykm provided
If you prefer 60 fps video over RAW photos this is the one for you:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634795625
Changelog:
Code:
[B]Modded GCam Min 1.3 with 60 fps video support[/B]

Requires Android 7.0
Can I choose the camera? as I found that only one of the wide back camera could be used. the normal back camera cannot be used.
Is this a new version?When did it came out??
Seems to work can only using the front camera and the rear 16mp camera, not the wide camera as mentioned above. But i think it's losing alot of detail somewhere compaired to stock as its 1mb -3mb less than stock
Is Lens Blur working for you guys? Mine is crashing when proccesing the image..

Afaik this is by Googles rendering methods and there shouldnt be any lost details. You can take a photo with stock and one with G cam and compare them on your pc with a 100% crop. Should be the same level of detail.
Havent tried it myself yet but I am happy with the quality and I've read somewhere that Google enhanced compression a lot

Unfortunately also crashing for me. (since the first version already)
Edit:
There is a newer version with some fixes for front flash and video recording. If anybody has the issues on their phone I'll post the link.
The original dev works mainly on the mi5s so I don't think our devices are affected by this.
Ok, another new version with WORKING CONFIGS.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-Y4Wh0lWPBGNlFma1FZcFp5UXM
You can change different configs in the settings. You don't need restart your camera, it's working at once.
Before install clear data and cache and remove previous version. If you have FC after change config just clear data and cache of app..
So, maybe anybody can test and compare different configs?

The mod works only for Snapdragon 820 and above, and in some others but only in special cases... So i dont think it will be available for th g5 se soon
I tried Version 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6. It seems that all the new configs which are designed for the mi5s break a few things for us. Hence I couldn't get any of them to process HDR+ properly.
Noise was pretty high and the images inferior to the ones taken with the LG G6 camera app from fulmics. If you guys want I can still provide the newer versions but I don't think that it's worth installing them.

I had the same experience... Currently using Mod_GCam_4.4.012_MI5S_7.0H_Cam2API_Final_1.0.apk.
The processing takes quite a toll on the processor, but it produces nice pictures. My wife has a Nexus 5X and her pics are still better though
earlier port that is 1.4 was working fine
Has there been any progress with the Lens Blur on G5?
I would love to have this feature... (if anyone made this into a paid app i would buy it right away...)
Also i think the Photos taken with my G5 (stock cam as well) look too "soft", like a filter rounded off all the edges...

This is the last version of the 014 camera app. The following versions are based in the 016 and the lens blur is not working there...
As you guys know, camera performance on the Moto X4, put bluntly, has been less than stellar. Also of note: the Google Camera app (Auto HDR+) has been ported to multiple other Android devices, and it seems as though any device able to utilize the Camera2 API with a Hexagon DSP and Spectra ISP is compatible with the ported camera app. As of a few days ago, the Modded Google Camera ported apk was found to work with the Moto X4, as seen on Reddit in the links below:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ProjectFi/...orted_hdr_pixel_camera_apk_works_for_moto_x4/
https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoX4/comments/77vn3w/psa_google_camera_port_hdr_from_pixel_works_on_x4/
As discussed already, the performance of the Moto X4's camera with the port is much better all round (especially low-light photography) than it is with Motorola's own camera app, which is slow and lacks good processing. Now, listed on some of the posts of the Reddit links above (much more information on the matter there) are links to all of the different apks (some fully functioning, some as test versions, some that are manual and configurable) of the Ported Google Camera app; credits to developers B-S-G and Ivanich for making this possible. Mind you, the most stable apk (Ivanich v1.4 Full PXL2) is configured for the OnePlus 3 most natively, which doesn't seem to support as many newer features of the Google Camera app as the Moto X4 does. That said, if a more stable apk of the ported Google Camera app can be configured to best go along with the hardware of the Moto X4's camera (as has been done with the Xiaomi Mi A1), then for those who aren't concerned about using the secondary camera, there will be a viable option for much improved photography on the Moto X4 as well, that takes advantage of the hardware present more effectively. Again, much more detailed explanation of these concepts on Reddit, in the links provided above. I wanted to bring attention to this for those who are interested over here.
Only deficiency of the apk...
You have the option to delete photos while HDR+ is still processing them. If you do, it seems to get stuck in the notification bar. I don't know if this impacts anything, but just a note.
Great find! Mine comes in tomorrow, and I can't wait to try this out!
I wonder: is anybody working on configuring an apk better suited for the Moto X4's camera hardware, and/or is anyone willing to? As of right now, these are the config options that work most effectively on the Moto X4's hardware (as posted in the r/projectfi [1st] Reddit link):
Phone Model - Nexus 6P. All work here, but the 6P option seems to be the best in low light.
Config camera - Pixel 2017 Zsl HDR #1 and #2 options can crash the app (if you crash it, clear data/cache). All the others seem to work. ZSL is for HDR Auto mode. Pixel 2016 Zsl HDR is most optimal.
Buffers Size - 15 (optimal)
Note: this is the configurable mod below:

When you do try it out, if you can compare picture/video quality to the stock Motorola app, that'd be great, and something I suggest you do anyway to see how you feel about it.

No it's not the same , what you tried was probably gcam4.4 based, the apk i gave link to is based on gcam 4.2 arm version. anyway thanks for trying.
Update: the new Arnova8G2 manual gcam apk works for this device as well. From what I've been told, it provides a similar image quality with better color processing than other gcam ports, and better video quality. This is MUCH better performing in most every aspect that Motorola's stock app. It can be found in the first Reddit link in the original post in this thread (I'm the OP), or directly from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/. The Arnova8G2 manual mod is based off of a newer version of Gcam, that being 5.1.014 I believe, as opposed to 4.2.x, as the BSG and Ivanich mods are based off of.

So far, how do you feel about the image and video quality with the updated version of this app? Also, how do you feel it stacks up against other devices that you've worked with in the past?
Just tried the newly released v9.1 version. Very impressive with low light indoors. Pictures came out looking like the room was well lit, when it was in fact dimly lit. Also, switching to 60fps on video provides a much brighter/clearer image.

I meant to try it out, but I haven't had the time. I was using the older version of the Gcam to record video at a wedding this past weekend: VERY dark lit dance floor with strobe/lights moving all around, and fast movement. Even at the brightest setting, it was still too dark to see almost anything. I know this is a worst case video scenario, but if the new apk improves video low-light, that would be great!

Nope, don't own one yet. There is no difference in image processing between the two, as they both run the same versions of Motorola's camera software and have the same hardware in tow as well; there'd be no reason for the app to process images differently on the regular version than on the Android One version. They both have poorly optimized camera software in common.

First of all thank you for this gcam, perfectly working.
I try it but I can only capture video, other mods give me black screen.

After all Gcams Apk.....this is the best for mu RM 6s

This is probably the best balanced GCam out there. Photos come out very detailed and sharp. Colours aren't overexposed. Needs very little tweak to get it work as you like. And most of all, the buffer fix is just awesome. Not only does it take better balanced photos than almost all of the GCams I've ever tried, it also fixes the ViewFinder lag. This is literally the go-to GCam for all users.
Though, the Night Sight and Photo Booth doesn't work. That's just the only two things to watch out for. Other than that, it's literally the best GCam for Realme 6 for now. 5/5

I don't have any black bar on the left side of the photo. Tested by taking pictures in the same spot using 3 different camera apps.
I can't open video mode . Is there someway to fix it?

This is working great...the color processing is as expected from Gcam.

Would love to see too
i made a few pictures with both apps. just my summary:
1.xiaomi has better dynamic range, or in other words, brighter shadow.
2.xiaomi's color is more accurate. gcam has a cold color tone to it.
3.gcam is somewhat shaper without the weird sharpening effect.
4.gcam removes fringing a lot better, on edge of big color shift of two objects (tree vs sky, black bottle vs white background), it has a clear boundary, xiaomi is more murky-looking.
5.overall gcam exposure is a tad lower than xiaomi's.
6.gcam only has 1x and 2x, no wide angle. for potrait, it has 1x and 1.3x, picture seems to have very bad exposure.
7.all pictures were taken indoors, so i haven't compared the outdoor pictures.
i wouldn't switch.

Always find mi cam exposure half a stop overexposure....even more so at highlighted area that hdr fail to control sometime. And their awb is always wrong under warmer lighting condition. But there are more Gcam mod to try out. But I do notice...some Gcam mod had that weird green tint to white color background.
Anyone came across a better Gcam port...do share
Tones to pick from the link below.

Description about each Google Camera Port developer and links to their download pages.

This is working but I don't see much advantage in it tbh
I agree after testing out a few mode...the color are more contrasty using Gcam. But only so marginally ....
Can anyone post comparison shots ?

1. Better HDR ? That's strange. However if it's just that the shadows are underexposed with gcam, that's somethign you can fix in the settings. Gcam is tuned for the imx363, obviously it's going to need some tweaks to work well on the gn2.
2. Make sure you have AWB on.
5. Again, exposure can be tweaked. Right now BSG has one of the most versatile, easily tweakable mods.
6. This you need to inform the devs about. Gcam is only acessing one sensor here, and digitally cropping 2x. But you can probably access both the 0.5 and 5x lenses as well. If the devs can make Sabre work on them this will lead to much better detail on both these lenses.
If you guys want test this new Greatness GCAM version:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-greatness/f/dl2/
The Officially Supported Device is divided into two categories:
Category 1: OnePlus 2020 Phones with Everything Working
Category 2: OnePlus 2019, Oneplus 2021, Oppo Find X2 Pro and Mi 11 Ultra with only one video related feature missing.

unfortunately there's no Auxiliary lens support.
Be aware that next Wichaya version will work perfectly.
Been using for weeks and it's great.

Did Wichaya release next version? I see his GCAM is outdated and last version is a 7.3 from december.

How do you know he is going to release a fully working GCAM? source?
What's the main difference between Gcam and the official camera app?

You are trying a GCAM posted 1 month ago and that version is a cstark version from january:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-cstark27/
Mi 11 Ultra was released not long time ago and GCAM development is poor. You need try newer GCAM versions to find a better one, not OP link from a clickbait website. Check always latest releases here:

Pixel on the left and stock Xiaomi on the right, no settings altered

Do you think is better than official? Can Gcam extract the full potential of the cameras?
