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..

[REQ] Samsung's camera in AOSP/CM11 on 4.4.x

Hi guys! I bought yesterday a SGSIII. After few hours i decided to install a CM 11. it works fine, but there isn't HDR option in google camera and CM camera. So I tried to find something other. I found stock camera, but for 4.3.x (here it link for it: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/75589-galaxy-s3-stock-camera-for-aosp/) But it makes bootloops on CM11. Is there any option to make it work, or maybe there is any good camera app with HDR?
I don't know where put this thread. IF it should be in Q&A section, please moderator to move it

i remember the TouchWiz camera working rly well on aosp rom. would be nice if someone could port it for 4.4
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app

Would be nice....waiting for it too.

i'm waiting too. someone can porting samsung stock camera to cm11.

I don't think a TouchWiz stock camera app for sgs3 would work on 4.4.x AOSP/CM because the s3 international devices didn't get a kitkat rom, camera app of 4.3 Android won't work on 4.4
But there is a hope, some s3 variants like Verizon (with 2gb of ram) received a kitkat update, after all they have the same camera HW, so I think it is possible to use this roms camera app!
All we need now is someone to capable of such thing to read this post

Samsung Camera cannot work (well) on AOSP anyway. As it is true that mentioned Android versions are incompatible - noone officially managed to run a 100% working Samsung Camera on 4.3 AOSP ROM (let alone 4.4.). You had to replace the stock one with Samsung one and then either you had problems with autofocus or video recording or the app would FC itself. I've googled this before because I wasn't happy with CM camera quality, but there are no good solutions if your sticked to Samsung.
However I flashed a Samsung based kernel (ArchiKernel, arter97 kernel...) and CM11S camera app (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/17-fixed-camera-app-lib-cm-aosp-roms-t2505973) and with it you get superb quality (99-100% like Samsung Camera). However HDR isn't avaliable at this time but it sucked on stock Samsung Camera anyway, so...

It is a beautifull dream ?, but i think is not possible.

yes thats true, there is allot of features that wont work, like GeoTagging, due to the dependency on stock ROM blobs, kernel and apps! still the core camera app functions can be ported, and no alternative camera app can really replace the stock one, because its the only one that can use the phones camera hardware image processing!
all s3 variants have the same camera HW and blobs, therefore posting the app from s3 models that received an official kitkat update is doable, but is it feasible? thats up to the experts to say!
whats even better if someone can develop an app that can use the phones camera HW itself, but thats out of the question because the blobs are not open source!

CyanogenMOD AOSP camera uses the HW blobs, and not all S3 models use the same camera, I don't think. It's not really going to happen, porting the stock camera to AOSP. If it could be done well enough it'd be done by now.

[Q] Stable rom with original camera

Hello, I would like to ask, if there is some good ROM for daily use with original (or better than original) cam app. I have Liquid Milestone amani 3,2 ROM which is fine, but camera seems to be making worse photos than stock one and its missing some advanced features. I have no idea what kind of cam app is there, seems like google but dont know for sure. Anyway, i am also missing many features of stock cam. Bought this phone becouse of 20mpx cam, becouse I always focus on photography when picking some new device. Until today I had everything stock but now I am on unlocked bootloader seeking the best ROM for making photos with most advanced cam apk. If there is no such a ROM, will have to go back on stock software.
Thanks for any advices.

Try Kitslim_AMG for a stock based custom ROM or MIUI 5 for a different feeling. Both use the stock cam. Combined with Superior 20MP (Xposed Module) you have everything you ask for.

thank you for reply, going to try them

[Q] AOSP Dialer + Stock Camera

Hi!
I believe I know the answer to the question, but, is there any way to have both the AOSP dialer and the stock camera?
As far as I know AOSP based roms, such as Cyanogen, do implement the dialer but need LG drivers in order to have the camera working at it's best, which none is implementing at the moment (and looks quite hard to do in the near future).
On the other hand, Stock based roms don't have a way to replace the dialer as of now.
I come from a Nexus device and have been using Lollipop for some months now (since the first preview). I think the dialer is the best overall improvement of Lollipop besides material design.
But the thing about the G3 is that the camera is great. Being used to crappy Nexus cameras this is a whole notch above, and don't want to loose it. Mainly the video recording quality.
I wouldn't mind having either a stock or AOSP based rom. I've tried ChupaChups, Cyanogen, and am using now AN 6.1. All of them are working great.
Anyway I'm sure it's a matter of waiting a bit, development for the G3 is picking up speed.

Cant agree more with you. When im on stock, i miss the G Dialer so badly and when I go with AOSP, I just cant stand its ****ty camera. Now im on Chupachups but still longing for the dialer solution. Hope that one day Google will release its Dialer just as it did with the Messenger recently. 3rd Dialer wont replace the stock interface during call.

Have you tried any 3rd party dialer from Play Store?

CM11 Status for Z1c?

Hi, I've been searching for a custom ROM for my Z1c. There are some very good stock based and I am currently using one, but I' like to try a CM one. CM12 has still some imprortant bugs for me. My question is if CM11 has solved every problem and if it works flawlessly. An something else, is there a good camera app for CM11 to take full advantage of Z1c hardware? Thanks!

There are no CM camera apps that even come close to what the stock camera can do
I have been wanting to try a CM build on my Z1c, but I love taking pictures and don't want to loose the amazing camera that's built into stock. I have been following several photography threads, but no one has come up with an app to beat stock.
Unlocking the bootloader breaks a few of the stock functions, but apparently it can be fixed
