Camera quality improvement mods... - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There used to be some camera quality improvement mods. Will those come back... are others working on this? I haven't been able to find any that would support 4.4.3 or 4.4.4. I read the last mod dev was banned...? Anyway thanks for any info!

[Q] Please sir can you spare some knowledge ;p

OK so I got this phone a few days ago and jumped right in, looking for one main thing in a rom. Good camera. and what I have found from flashing back (starting with) stock 2.2.1 is that the camera rocks. Very quick shot response time and the options are great, along with sharp pictures. But at the same time it was lacking features in the os that you can't live without at this point. ( its been so long since I have used a 2.2.1 ROM like omg) then moved on to stock GB and same UI and speed just crap for
quality, what's up with that. So the natural course is to then move on to CM builds
starting with 7.2 and in this I found everything I wanted an advanced os with a good
camera. The issue with this is that for the life of me I could not enable the shutter
sound so now on to my questions.
#1-In CM7.2 stable how can I enable the shutter sound. ( don't ask why I want it, I'll
just tell you I'm OCD and it was driving me nuts)
#2-Is there a mod for build 9-10 that could give me a type of options UI like that of the stock ROMs such a night mode, Iso selection etc...
#3-Is there a fully working photosphere mod for our device.
#4-What do you all think. What rom gives you the best image quality (x) options and are there mods to make our cameras better.

the only thing makes a difference in image quality on any camera is wether its a megapix camera or VGA camera and how many megapixels.

There is no photosphere mod for our device because of hardware limitations.

[Q] 4.4... to flash or not to flash

Would any of you who are currently running one of the 4.4 roms care to give some feedback on your experience - I've used CM 7-10, SlimBean 4.3, and Pacman 4.3 before on other devices...
Hopefully this isn't a redundant post, but I don't see nearly as much use feedback as I had in traditional threads that I've seen in other forums. Though there seems to be a much lower volume of people in this forum as well... Hopefully this doesn't piss off developers as that's not my intention... I need my phone to function as a daily driver... so I'm asking for feedback before I greatly alter my phone...
Do you use a 4.4 rom you use as your daily driver?
Are there any gotcha's or does the rom fulfill your every need/desire?
Does Wi-Fi work consistently/well?
Does bluetooth/A2DP streaming work consistently/well? Does the music app provide mp3 tag info via a2dp? (what music app do you use?)
How's the camera image quality? (I feel like the stock 4.3 camera leaves something to be desired with is sad... Has the CM team fixed sphere so it's functional/consistent? Does it do panorama shots?
How's system stability? (This may be meaningless if everyone's flashing nightlies everyday)
How's call quality?
Does your phone Heat up with basic use? How's battery life?

Well, I recommend you to read the threads about every 4.4 based rom, then you'll know most of the issues. I wouldn't use any of them.
Before my last Nexus 4, I had a Razr Maxx with 4.4.2 Slim rom. The first week using as my main rom everything was fine, fast, stable and battery saver. But all the problems started in the second week. Freezing at main screen, force closing most of the apps... I had to reinstall or even update to another version.
I got tired of that and rolled it back to Stock 4.1.2. The phone gained another stand. More battery life (3300mah was awesome), speed and stability. My sister still using it with the same version and she had no problems in five months.
If you decide to use, you'll need patience to keep updating your phone constantly till the final release.
The reason I'd created this post is because much of the information I was asking about wasn't apparent in either the FXP or Omni posts...
When I look at the 4.4 issues log on the FXP post, I see so many issues that would directly impact me, I'm concerned about actually running that.
Perhaps I'm finding the wrong threads, but there isn't alot of extra info in the ZL forums... I'm unsure if the Z forum posts apply.

camera quality on custom roms

Iam really liking the camera on oxygen os but wish to shift on RR or dirty unicorn but read that camera not that good on custom roms yet due old kernel n unreleased source for camera
can anyone give correct info on this and if moving onto custom make me sacrifice camera quality?
would appreciate the help
Right now this is the status quo:
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...roms-stock-camera-app-for-custom-roms.456213/
Recently CM13 did some work and improved the camera which now produces less noise:

I'm making big progress on the camera for CM. Tonights build brings the image quality, the next week brings features
It brings image quality and lowlight performance up. Not all features are used yet. One step at a time.

Here is more info:

It seems like CM's goal is to make the postprocessing from stock OOS usable for CM13.
Who knows when and how, but for CM13 being open, I think other roms can profit from this too
once they get this sorted out.
So far I am on OxyenOS 3.2.2, so I can't really comment on other roms, but
the last time I've tested cm13 was before the recent merges and the quality was subpar to OOS.

New on 10, what's the situation?

Hello guys, here a htc m7, m8, m9 and few nexus devices user
Can I ask something to anyone who was here before me? just to be updated about the situation:
-is there vulkan support here?
-no daydream eh?
-what exactly do we lose with AOSP roms? sound should be fine since the bass/high system is a phisical thing...I just expect camera performance drop
-I was something about AOSP CAF....is there really a pure aosp compiled port?? with no lineage stuff? would be great
-Is EAS really magic as they say?
-Is there a full stock rom zip? with no wipe?
-I feel the display colors a little unbalanced...how are you dealing with that?
-Camera is great, no dubt, but I expected more....
I was on nexus 5x and google camera's hdr+ does an amazing job on post process, making shots more eye-candy, despite of quality
are you using third party apps? any advice? low light shots are really noisy
Thank you very much for your attention

If it isn't there, it will be soon. Taiwanese 10's have it I think, but it'll get pushed to all of them in coming OTA's.
I don't believe so, needs AMOLED per Google's official specs
I think the only feature loss with AOSP is VoLTE and WiFi Calling.
Yes, its WIP but the only thing not working that I know of is video recording. Eliminater74 will fix it.
Eh, its neat but its not the be all, end all. It's more of an alternative to PnP.
Yes, check Sneakyghost's thread or download a RUU.
Custom kernel's and the AOSP ROMs have color sliders for fine tuning.
I use Google cam on Res Remix and the stock camera for Sense. Works for my uses.

Many thanks for reply! I didn't know about amoled for [email protected]
I think that in aosp we should lose boomsound and proprietary camera stuff, that help with image processing....
Tried nebula rom yesterday, I expected a cleaner rom....and something more on performance haha but htc devices never played well with aosp IMO
I can tune the display, but without a good tool....you know, is hard to achieve a good calibration
I'm going to try google camera, but nexus have dedicated post processing systems that, really, make the difference....just look at pixel shots....though pixel have similar camera, they look far better
