[Q] Which rom for best camera quality ? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, let's group roms in 4 kinds:
1. Stockish Sense (like ARHD)
2. Custom Sense (Venom and NuSeven with upgraded Sense)
3. Stockish AOSP (like GPes etc)
4. Custom AOSP (Specially Nougats)
For the record, i'm currently on a OV camera sensor, the original ST (although susceptible to pinking) was far better.
Which kind of rom do you believe provides the best results ?
In my experiences, there's no difference between Stock Sense, Custom Sense, and Stock AOSP.
Custom AOSP is lacking HDR, and i feel there's something else missing, but i can't put my finger to it. Also, 60fps recording is gone, but the OV sensor is pretty crappy on this aspect.
Opinions ?

Camera performance

I have a pretty simple question . How does camera performance differ from the normal touchwiz ROM apposed to an aosp ROM. I know there is some processing that is done on the os side when pictures are taken.
So basically is the camera worse on a aosp ROM compared to a touchwiz ROM

As far quality, no but certain features like filters, camera modes, etc that's tied into samsung stock camera aren't present in AOSP.

I've tested the camera on both FireKat (TouchWiz) and CM12 Remix ROMs and I can say I was pleased with both, BUT. CM12 does not really support other features, like in-camera filters and photo mods (animated picture, sound photo etc). What I also noticed, now, please correct me if I'm wrong, but CM12 does not support other camera apps other than Google Camera and the AOSP stock Camera (which are almost the same thing). Could have been a troubly version of the rom, but I could not get the FV-5 to work, nor the camera inside Facebook Messenger (for sending photos really quick).
Otherwise, the photos look pretty much the same if made with the default filter, but you can always use apps to edit them, I got like 6 of them. I can recommend Google Snapseed, it's free and powerful. Njoy!
Oh, yeah, you also lose the voice control for the camera (the "Shoot!" or "Cheese!" voice triggering). But, damn, man, CM12 is snappy as hell..
On one TW ROM the camera wasn't as good as stock. Not sure what the deal was. I'm using the app called better camera on the CMRemix ROM. It has the features like the stock camera. As far as quality it seems just as good.

Anyone have default OP3T camera app?

Flashed resurrection remix and installed the Google camera app. I think it may not be as good as the Oneplus camera app. I'd like to install it if possible.

Here is a link to the ported OOS camera app. I have used it with custom roms (7.1.1). It is not exactly identical to the stock camera but it is close. When it comes to quality, nothing beats the stock OOS cam on the stock rom/stock-based roms.

Shoot. Is it really that much better on stock OOS? I had the phone for a very short period of time before rooting and custom ROM.
Maybe I ought to go back. Most of the features in RR I'm not using. And a better camera is always more welcome.
Did you flash this dirty? Really need to reset?

For nougat, you can simply install the apk files like any regular app. I am not a photography expert or anything. I am just a regular point-n-shoot guy but I feel that the camera in stock OOS is definitely better. If you don't want to be on stock then you can try FreedomOS. It is basically the stock rom but with more features and some customization.

I am using FreedomOS with ElementalX kernel and it gives great performance and battery life besides other benefits of stock.

I think it's MILES better on stock versus something like CM/Lineage/RR. For one, the video cameras stutter a ton. You also lose 60fps video. The photos are honestly comparable, but the unusable video absolutely kills it. Furthermore, the camera works much better in 3rd party apps like Snapchat/Instagram. I don't really mind OxygenOS honestly. It's close enough to AOSP IMO, and once I got a blacked out Substratum theme on it, 99% of the UI is exactly how I had it on CM previously anyway.

[Discussion] Stock OOS Camera Discussion- Feature Request

Hello Community! Greetings from Bangladesh.
There has been lots of buzz regarding Oneplus 3 Camera. For a great device like One Plus 3, Camera performance is one of the thing that many users dont like. I meant to say, since the device uses a decent sensor, a well developed camera app could have boosted the camera performance more. To me the camera performance is not that bad, but still it could have been much better. We saw Dev like SultanXDA can do magic and can really push a device's full potential to the maximum.
I was hoping if someone could have drawn the attention of one plus developers to make the camera app a bit more rich. I mean OOS camera doesnt really have that many options. We have manual mode, but its not complete, there is some limitation. I m not talking about some fancy filters here. If we look at Camera option of Sultan's CM 13, it has way more customization option than Stock OOS. Since Oneplus has not yet been friendly regarding camera Blob's and stuffs it has become pretty tough for the developers to implement something for the custom roms. Its been long, but except for Sultan's CM 13 camera performance in other custom roms are yet pretty much disappointing. We have Stock OOS camera port for custom rom, but it has some limitations.
So what i m asking here is One Plus Dev team should focus on their camera app. For example- Nubia Devices a great camera app which can make use of the sensor pretty well. Similarly Lenovo SnapIt camera has lots of customization too.
I m welcoming discussion from user community here regarding this matter. Please comment about the features that you want to have in Stock OOS camera app. Thus we can let OOS dev team know about our demand.
Thanks.

AOSP roms camera

I do not have this device yet. I come from a Samsung device, and due to the Touchwiz, AOSP roms has a very large loss in camera quality. Does this problem occur with custom roms vs. stock roms in G6 Play? If yes, how much is this loss?

Custom Roms Camera Quality

I have been using Galaxy note 8 for more than one year on stock Rom, pictures were bright and clear, but I have observed that their quality is inferior while using custom Roms, tried many custom Roms but couldn't get stock results. Even Samsung Camera app doesn't perform so well on custom Roms compared to the stock firmware. Is it normal?
Its always like that. Samsung , like others, optimizes its software to work the best with its hardware - hence the quality in the pictures is better on stock roms. Although , you can use stock customizable roms like Exy or Deluxe Rom , which have stock camera apps.
Many will argue though , that gcam app is better in some scenes and when using HDR+ but..

That is correct as 3rd Party OS developers do not have access to the Camera Optimization Settings used by device OEMs on their devices.
While some 3rd party camera apps maybe able to replicate the visual quality of pics of the OEMs. They are not 100% the same results.
