Now that the Galaxy S9/S9+ supports project treble we users can install the GSI on our phone and have pure stock Android straight from Google running almost flawlessly..
But should we?
Samsung Experiences Pros:
-Dolby Atmos
-Goodlock
-Always On Display
-Theme Engine
-Ultra Powersaving Mode
-Edge Features
-Iris Scanner
-Telephoto Camera
-Samsung Pay
-Waranty
Google GSI Pros:
-Cleaner UI

-Instantaneous updates from Google
What do you guys think? Is it worth it?

I ask any of you to give me an explanation on the difference between the Xiaomi RedMi Notes Enhanced Edition (MT6592 8-core) and the Xiaomi RedMi Notes 4G LTE (Qualcomm MSM8928 Snapdragon 400 4-core). Which one is better as both performance and whether it is possible for both a possible MOD with a Custom Rom?
Which do you recommend between both?
Thanks very much to everyone for your help!
The small get continuous updates. The big have better hardware. In my private: 8-core is better.

Thanks Julian, you're always ready to help me out! :good: then for performance and any custom mod, you advise me the Enhanced?
I found several reviews which compared the two devices, and the following in particular seems well done!!

I can say that the Enhanced Edition with Octacore is the absolute best seeing also the result with AnTuTu Benchmarks!
Hi,
is anyone able to make a flashable .zip of the oxygen camera app for cm13/14?
Or won't the app work on cm?
Thx a lot!

It won't work on CM because of a lot of private not open source code that oneplus put into making the camera work. That's one of the limitations of third party roms on this phone or the op3, being that the camera quality isn't the same as on OOS. Google oneplus camera blobs for more info on this.

hows the cam quality
I have been using CM13 and CM14. I am now going back to OOS because you loose a good amount of low light noise cleanup. and you don't get EIS2.0 and Optical Image Stabilisation combined. which is what EIS2.0 is Electronic and Optical combined. Anywhoooo. yeah and the CM snap cam isn't bad......but in low light the camera creates a lot of noise....but w/ OOS camera it can clean that noise up pretty good....I was going to get the pixel where they barely have to clean up any noise and the noise they have is fixed w/ a really good HDR+ mode....but I'm not about to pay over 800 for the 128 Pixel XL.....hence why i got the OnePlus3T. So if you really want good low light stick w/ OOS......CM13 Snap cam isn't horrible.....but it's not as good as OOS's camera app because of the noise reduction blobs stuff (which OnePlus and snapdragon prob wrote to fully utilize EIS2.0 that works really well w/ snapdragon 821 and they know exactly what kinda noise the cheaper camera sensor produces. Snap Camera only fixes generic noise..not noise specific to the oneplus 3t's camera sensor)
Long story short....if you want the best image from this phone...stay on OOS. but isn't freedomOS OOS but w/ more features....I hope so because I would like to have more features built in vs using xposed. and I hate the recents button placement on OOS...with a passion.
I installed the apks provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/themes/port-oxygenos-stock-camera-cm-t3451721 on my 1+3T running Resurrected CM14 based ROM and it works like a charm. Just install the apks from under "NOUGAT ROMS." Do NOT flash the zip as they will bootloop your phone. Pretty sure quality is not as good as the stock or latest OOS but gets the job done and RR is too good to pass up for me
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.
Hi ! I have buy a pixel 4 a 5g and before use on my old phone Google camera port for it and have playground.
I know Google stop Ar Playground for pixel 4/4a 5g/5 sniff.
But do you know if is possible to have it ?
Thanks
I think they got rid of the pixel visual core, which playground relies on, thus no playground

Hello, I don't think so, visual core is a machine learning isp that was in the previous pixel to improve the photos and the process. but the Snapdragon are much improved in the isp and the optimization of Google already makes the 3a equal games without this chip. Then I was able to use Playground with Google camera mods on oneplus and xiaomi so it's possible without visual core (yes on S835 & 845)
I will wait for a dev to create a Google camera mod for the Pixel 4a 5g / 5 there will surely be Playground work. but it does not matter. Thanks.
Hello everyone, I´m posting this thread because I´ve seen some videos on youtube talking about the pixel 6/6 pro having an optimized camera API, which means that instagram and snapchat are fully optimized for the camera sensor, making even possible to switch between lens in the same app and not losing quality due to image compressing (something that is fully optimized in ios). So I´m wondering if this happens too in samsung phones updated to android 12? Is the quality improved on par with ios or pixel 6/6pro?
