[Q] Camera not good in OneX - HTC One X

Why does the camera in my HTC OneX as blur as I take a picture at 20 cm distance.

My camera was good on the stock rom but it hasnt been very good since i flashed Cyanogenmod.
Aside form being on a stock rom, I dont think there is much you can do about it

That's the difference between aosp and sense roms. The camera needs the sense framework for full support. It's common known that the camera has less performance on aosp/cm based roms.

Best Overall AOSP Style ROM

I recently updated my wife's Desire HD with an AOSP ROM. I hadn't realised just how good Android has become without any manufacturer customisation. After playing around with the ROM for a while I was disappointed to go back to Sense on my One X. The default Google UI just feels very modern and consistent. Sense feels outdated.
I've looked around for the current best AOSP ROM for the One X, or an HTC based ROM with most Sense stuff removed. After looking at several I'm only more confused, all have pros and cons.
So, advice welcomed, what's good for an AOSP style experience right now? (A working camera is essential)
U can use ViperX ROM with apex launcher and geenyous aosp theme, the ROM is super fast, looks like aosp and has got the HTC camera app.
U can alternatively use cm9 or if u want jelly bean, then use cm10 by tbalden.

I'd suggest domination rom by owain if customization is your thing, or tgascoigne's aosp jelly been port if you like stable, streamlined, stock android, no tweaks.
All roms on the forum have a working camera and almost no bugs thanks to the awesome devs we have working on the HOX.

To everyone saying 'camera is essential' - if it's essential you'll have a proper camera. To rely on a phone is just silly
I find Trips roms are always fantastic. This is his Jelly Bean rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784185, I believe the camera might not be working in the current version, however, a camera app off the market should work fine instead.
Thank for the advice guys, I'll look into those ROMs

I'm a really keen amateur photographer and carry my Canon 60D, G12 or Ixus with me a lot. Carrying one of them at all times isn't feasible though.
There are plenty of times when you don't expect to be taking photos but the opportunity arises. Finally having a respectable camera on a phone (such as the HOX) makes sure you don't lose the moment. It's also nice to be able take photos and email them on the spot.

How so? I thought the sense camera required the sense framework

I don't recommend a JB rom atm if camera is necessary. There are crashes and sometimes the pics taken are gibberish. I had to use my camera to take photos of some documents(no scanner nearby ) and got annoyed with the above problem.
ICS 4.1 roms are best.
Give Ice Cold Jelly a try. Camera is working fine for me. Is it sense camera you want to keep, or just need a working camera?

Because MIUI build their ROM on-top of official releases from the different manufacturers.
For Sense ROM go to viperX or ARHD .. for AOSP go to Domination

Any camera will do. Ice Cold Jelly looks good, will give it a try at the weekend.
There is no such thing as best ROM every ROM is good in it's own aspect. Because of these comparison we lot a great Kernel developer.

Poor Trip is the victim of failure to read. The boot.img and modules (kernel) in his CM10 ROM has everything working fine. He has a 3.x kernel which is not 100% yet. For some reason people keep posting the same kernel bugs that are already known in his ROM thread.
The ROM is fine and I am using the 009 kernel and it's perfect.
I highly recommend cm10 endeavor unleashed by trip raver (tripndroid mobile engineering) fast, smooth and solid reliability.
I didn't think I'd root my One X but I too just got bored with sense. I have a comprehensive understanding of branding principles but I think HTC take the concept too far with every phone for about 4 years having only slight changes in UI. When I buy a new phone I want it to feel new when I use it. Time to drop Sense and come up with something new.

Don't understand the question?!
Camera works fine on every ROM i had... including JellyTime R8 by randomblame.
So, what do you mean with this question?

you mean the quality of the photos?
I want a rom with the best photo quality (and maybe many effects)

the virtuous infinity with sense 4full makes very good..
i remember that even the MIUI was great
however, you do not see a big difference.
You'll get the best camera quality with Sense ROMs (both GB & ICS). The next option would be CyanogenMod 7.2.0. The camera will never work as good for AOSP ICS and JB ROMs because the phone wasn't meant to run them by design, in the sense that the available drivers and libraries aren't made for AOSP. They have to be hacked, modified and backported from GB and the resulting quality of photos and video, while decent, is not as good as that with Sense ROMs.
The camera in Jellytime 8.0 works great for me. I have had a few problems with previous builds but the new one works great.
It's a tie between MIUI camera and HTC Sense. If you can get a sense camera, keep it. If you can't (like on a non sense ROM), go with one of the MIUI cameras. I recommend #17 (google it). I think they're pretty close in quality and usefulness.
The MIUI camera doesn't run on certain ICS ROMs, to make it work, you need to go to camera settings and change the size in pixels of the picture. Every time you leave the camera, and get back, you need to change the pixel size (change from 8mp to 6, then back for best size).
In JB go to settings and disable HW overlays, or else you'll get messed up lines of color running through the screen.
In GB you should be completely fine.
Hi,
Anyone have an update?
Some new ROMs, stable and with a good camera?
In some jelly time I have found some bugs or problems with autofocus..
Thank you for your reply..

[Q] What camera quality is better: CustomSense/CustomNon-Sense?

Hey guys,
I've got a little question (like no other time xD)
Mainly: Is there a camera capture quality difference between Custom sense and non-sense roms?
Since you don't got the sense thingys and a different camera app (Android JB camera app / Zoom FX / Sense app)..
But i'm running CyanogenMod10 and I think there really is a noticeable difference: Sense rom are better quality. Not tried a custom Sense, but Cyanogen compared to Stock is less quality, I think.
Can anyone give an answer to that question or is it really not noticeable or just a personal opinion?

Sense camera gives superior image quality mate.
Sense ROMs will give same image quality as stock sense unless it comes with camera mods which gives a little extra quality.
Sense is optimised to make use of the image chip sensor where as AOSP isn't due to closed drivers. If you want the better pictures stick with Sense.

I think that I know answer to this question, but I have to ask it.
Is there any possibility to port Sense camera app and all of its features to AOSP/AOKP based custom rom ?
The only thing that I like in Sense overlay is the camera app.
Sorry if this is answered somwhere, I didnt have any luck in finding the answer.

No, the Sense camera requires the Sense framework which is not present in AOSP/AOKP based ROMs. If it could have been done, it would have been done long before the One X came around.

Subpar camera on CM 10.1.2

I've flashed many roms Paranoid Android, CM, etc. They are blazing fast and lag free but the only that is preventing me from staying on those roms is the camera. It seems like the camera drivers for AOSP roms are just not as good as the ones on stock Touchwiz. Am I overthinking this, or are Samsung camera drivers a bit better than those found in custom roms?
I would like to continue running CM 10.1.2 but the camera is really my main gripe. Are there any alternatives or do I have to be stuck on Touchwiz?

I know this is a little old but I thought it's worth quoting as i'm in the same boat. What roms does the camera work best for the gs2?
I added the camera from the Nexus 5 pull and it's leagues better than the AOSP camera. Had a weird issue where I was taking a quick pic and it rebooted but that's only happened once so far

Camera quality of Custom ROMs?

I'm thinking of Camera quality of Custom ROMs. Is the Camera quality the same across Custom ROMs (e.g. Viper, ICE, LeeDroid, LOS, AICP...)? How is it compared with Stock firmware? Would anyone here please explain my concern.
Thank you very much
On Roms based on HTC Sense the quality is exactly the same..can't comment on the AOSP roms, since they do not use the same stock camera application.
Thanks for the clarification. Let's wait for other custom Rom user's confirmation
There is not much to confirm...custom roms based on HTC Sense use the same software as the stock roms. AOSP roms don't/can't do that. Does not mean the quality has to be worse...but it could, at least it won't offer the different video/camera modes the stock camera does.
If you are interested in AOSP roms...then simply try it out.
