Hi Friends, I mainly use my Arc for Photographs. I am very pleased with Camera clarity of MIUI GB based rom, but sametime Acronius gives good photo too. I wanted to know how is the camera clarity of ICS? Is it same or better than GB?

ICS is much better
maybe can post samples :-D would love to know this
it is beta but the cam quality was great,wait for the official release,maybe will improve much better than beta,just hoping that se will add more option to play with
from the ARC
Can anyone post photos of GB and ICS to compare?
I recently flashed one of the many 4.2.2 custom roms available - the vanilla rootbox one and while i was very impressed by the rom overall I found the speaker output of a lot poorer quality than the official samsung roms.
It wasn't a volume issue, it was the actual quality. It was a lot tinnier without any really guts or definition to it, which I think it one of the great points of the Note 2, the speaker quality.
Having flashed back to stock I could hear the difference immediately.
Am curious as to whether the speaker quality suffers on all the custom 4.2.2 roms or if it was just that one in particular.
Would be grateful for any feedback or opinions.
I've read a lot about the OOS camera and the various cameras in non OOS ROMs (CM, Aosp, etc). I was wondering if we have gotten to a point where they perform similarly. I've heard mixed opinions.
Also why does OnePlus not release the camera source? They eventually released dash charging source, so I'm curious as to why they wouldn't do the same for the camera?
From what i've experienced, almost all well-lit shots (Both outdoor and indoor) perform almost as well on non-OOS ROMs as they do on OOS. For the discerning eye, OOS shots are still more crisp, but there is enough of a parity there that i don't think most people would notice. Any shot that isn't well-lit, OOS has non-OOS beat. Sometimes by a little, sometimes by a wide margin. In poor lighting, the non-OOS ROMs have gotten better, but it's still pretty clear that OOS is the better performer. Almost all of the issues with these shots come down to the noise cancellation.
When it comes to video, it's a mixed bag. On OOS 3.5.3 community build, the 1080P 60fps mode is amazingly fluid, and for the most part fantastic. The 4k mode is decent from what i can tell, although i don't really use it that much. The slow motion mode is great. On non-OOS ROMs, it depends on the ROM really. SultanXDA's ROM with his custom HAL probably has the best performance as far as video goes. The built-in camera app does a decent job at 1080p video and the 4k seems OK, but again, i don't use that mode very often. Video performance in other camera apps seems decent. On OOS 3.2.6, i had some issues with video performance though, so it's not all roses there if that's the version you're running.
Carl Pei has made it clear on Twitter and on a Reddit AMA that OnePlus will never release a fully open source camera stack. I suspect that this probably has to do with proprietary noise suppression algorithms and some other proprietary optimizations that OnePlus has engineered. It needs to be mentioned that the camera hardware is only one part of the equation when it comes to camera performance. There are a number of software components that go into a full camera experience. There really needs to be both to get full utilization out of a piece of camera hardware. As far as i've heard, OnePlus is "looking at ways" to bring the full OOS camera experience to non-OOS ROMs, but nobody really knows what that entails as of yet.

Thanks for the excellent explanation!
Also worth considering that the camera isn't manufactured by one plus, can't remember what off hand who's sensor they're using, so they would need manufacturers permission to release driver source.

Rear camera sensor is SONY IMX298 Exmor RS
Front camera sensor is SONY IMX179
On topic: i have always used Nexus and loved changing ROMs and trying new roms. With oneplus 2 i could do it, because of a good camera port, but in this phone... OOS is a must if you want to take decent pictures
Oos 3.5.2 camera is insanely good and super fast. Really its faster than iphone 6s plus camera with oos
Luckily we have xposed framework, so we can customize our op3 using oos roms, but yeah... It kinda sucks we have to use oos just because of camera. It doesnt matter app you use in custom roms, it will lack libs, drivers etc...
Same as FPS. OOS is insanely fast but with any custom ROM (even with released sources) its slower (still fast but i notice that difference)
Edit: btw oos is a pretty nice ROM.
Lacks customization? Yes, but xposed framework will do that
compared to S7 or HTC 10 the OnePlus3 camera sux
Only For camera I can't use any Custom rom
Sadly comment here.. Cz i tasted all rom here and There iso no good camera custom rom.. all custom camera sucks ?..
Now i am using 3.2.4 cz 3.2.6 camera also missing focus on right place.. and I love to capture regular macro shot via my mobile...
But i buy it also tested custom rom.. but i can'T!! only for bad camera ??
picture quality is not good on note 2 7105...pictures has so much noise in it..any solution to improve camera quality.??? plzz
Is the phone using the stock camera app? Is the phone running a custom ROM? Did you look for physical damage on the camera lens? Did you compare the phone's pictures to pictures from another Note 2?

no i am on ressurection rom nougat..well lens looks clear... i asked one of my friend having note 2..he said it is not the best quality ur camera has...mine is better than urs..help please
Use a stock ROM and see what happens. Custom ROMs do not always have good camera software.
I wounder if the camera qaulity is the same when using Custom Roms on 5X comapred to stock firmware?
On some other phones the camera qaulity gets worse when using custom roms.

I'd say that is not true for google devices because all the software is open source and implemented in custom roms too.
But when it comes to other devices, the quality can be worse as some libraries are private.
Furthermore I never saw any differences in quality between custom and stock roms for both my bullhead and my pixel 3.
