Camera Quality problem. Help needed ASAP - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have flashed the UX Beta 3(grace UI) for like 3 months and now when I compare my Note 5 with another. There's a huge difference in photo quality. It's clearly visible in the camera viewfinder itself. The photos are grainy and wayy washed out and so much noice in them.
Is there any solution to this ? Cuz I'm really dependent on my camera. Can I reflash just the camera app from the original stock firmware?
Or shud I just reflash the stock all over ? (If yes. Can I dirty flash just my data from backup?)
Any help would be really appreciated. Right now I'm in alot of trouble Thanks in advance.

Is Gnote Camera Still Good After ICS update??

Hi All,
I have a Note N-7000. I got it just a few weeks before ICS roll out. The Camera behaves weird and now its not the same as it was in 2.3.
daylight photos are okay but low light photos are really thumbs down and a lot of Red-Eye.
I still have photos before and after update and I can see quality of photos degrading after that!!!
Is Every1 having similar opinions or do I need any other settings to better the quality of photos??
Need you opinion...
Camera on ICS AND JellyBean is Better than on GingerbREAD
I still feel that camera quality has degraded in ICS..is your note also a GT N-7000??
Everyones note there is a GT-N7000....would be really weird if the folks who use the american Note were hanging out here.....
But no, I've not noticed it and the camera in the JellyCore ROM (JellyBean rom) is better than the GB one

Personally i found the camera on cm9 based roms disappointing .. Sure its faster but quality is not as same as tw based roms.

We'll my brother has the I717 and comparing my N7000 to his, I'd say the cam resolution is much more cleaner and sharp as compared to mine.. Though I can't say if this is ROM related or so.... he has CM10 installed and I have the (self modified) LRQ one. Not that it matters though.
exactly the same thing I observed that the indian note camera's quality's degraded than thew others..I see a lot of red-eye too when i use flash..is there any setting for removing that or any update or something that would better the quality..??

Xperia SP camera problems?

Hi all,
I am currently owning Sony Xperia P and I am thinking about an upgrade to SP. But one problems remain. Camera.
I have read a ton of reviews and it seems that camera is producing pictures with a lot of noise and that the camera of older model P, is actually, better.
I have seen that people say that some custom roms and mods solve this issue, but nothing concrete.
Can you please tell me your experiences with camera? Is it really that bad? Any of the updates solved the problem?
thanks

I'm using the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition camera (gallery app) and this solves any problem with the camera(you can use it on stock and all other roms), from autofocus to noise. So I'd say dont worry about it and get this amazing phone!
Produces great pictures. But besides that, it still is a phone, not a professional camera hehe.

Can you put here some samples of photos taken with stock camera and this S4 camera? Some in dim conditions and some in bright conditions. You know. Some kitchen photos, some landscape with blue sky, etc...
thanks !

No.
Edit: There is other threads about this and not only on XDA. Look before asking or get a real camera.
its true that the camera of Xperia SP is not that good compared to XP or S3.
the pictures are very noisy and yellowish and in low light the camera get more worse.
i have also tried S4 play edition camera, camera 360, moto x camera but no major difference.

[Q] Bad camera in firmware 4.4.4

Hello guys, I updated my Xperia Z's firmware from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 (292) a week ago. I really like the update, its much smoother, but I noticed that the camera is really poor even in the outdoor with less light exposure (its fine with good light exposure). I see theres too much color noise, it destroys every photos. And the indoor is much worse, moreover if i use the front camera. I used to very love taking pictures with my lovely XZ, but never save any with 4.4.4 camera . 4.4.4 camera is unlike the camera in the 4.4.2 with much lesser noise and unnoticeably color noise at all. I took random pictures and loved it so much. I wanna know if I could replace the 4.4.4 camera software with the 4.4.2 ones. Could it be by Flashing the 4.4.2 camera software/system to my 4.4.4 firmware or something? and how? Please help. Thank you so much developers..
Regards Dhicky.

Im sure 100% that the camera is different dude , i have tried to take photos with the 4.4.4 cameras, front and rear one, and the saved it to my pc, then I reflashed it back to 4.4.2 and took pics using both camera too. Then I compared it. Its clear that the 4.4.4 brings more color noise. so now I'm using 4.4.2.

Why is the camera just HORRENDOUS??!!

Man, honestly I love this phone but boy is the camera a true POS. Really it is, if there is not perfect sunlight there's a ton of noise, and if there's a tiny bit of movement, there's a ton a blur. I honestly feel like I'm using my Nexus 5 all over again. Need to find a remedy. Pictures by no means need to be perfect but come on. And yes I've tried other camera app with manual settings, still crappy
Really? Upload some images. Try using Open Camera or Manual Camera.
Try to use camera MX the best third party camera app so far
i agree , the camera for me is bad .
i will try to use camera MX
Same here mate , got same problem. On 6 marshmallow firmware the camera is like a toy camera . I rooted customer recovery ,flash custom ROM ,all my issue disappeared, once you flash the 7.1.1 fix the issue , the 7.1.1. include radio.img boot.img and firmware .IMG . This firmware .IMG contains drivers for screen , camera and sound and much more . My touch latency has been improved so much . Before I can't use Google keyboard to tipe or o have to disable the psuh button preview . Crazy , just flash 7
Same here. Coming from iOS family my expectations were low but this is below that. One thing helped a bit and it was disable auto HDR. Give a try.
Yeah, the camera is pretty bad. MUCH worse than on my iPhone 7 Plus. Kinda disappointed.

I've been on 7 and still the same. just a lot of noise in lower lighting, outside in sub gives good shots, but you really have to try for a good shot. iPhone 7plus point and shoot literally anywhere, miss the camera on 7plus
Yes the camera is not the best part of this devise but I found it good enough on HQ mode....

Yea, I also liked iPhone 7 Plus camera better than my S7 Edge. iPhone was making much sharper photos.

I've always found panorama stitching to be horrible on Androids. Something about the way iPhones handle them is sooooo much better.

Mi a2 camera quality

Guys i am from india and bought this few days back
Its snappy nice body built but camera quality is bad
Is there another app thay i can use instead of stock camera or are there particular settings in camera app like auto exposure or contrast or sharpness thati should change plz do tell
No root just wanna improve picture quality of camera here
Is it possible?
It's only you, this device's camera is the best at this price tag... Try to flash latest fastboot image again, maybe it solves your problem
"Camera quality is bad" ??
I'd suggest looking at the many various reviews of this device. Almost all of them rave about the camera and have sample pictures (which are outstanding).
What makes you think the quality is bad?
The camera of this phone is the one thing that is far better than the price. Must be something wrong with your unit. The quality is good. Very good.
I'm not satisfied with stock camera also, try this two camera apps.
