stock camera vs custom ROM camera - Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers

Hello friends,
I am very much concerned about camera quality.
I have my oneplus 3t in which I feel the ported GCAM is not better than stock oneplus camera in all lighting conditions.
But I want to know from you guys who use custom ROM in google pixel devices that
what camera is included in the custom ROM of Google Pixel 2 XL because for other OEMs, ported GCAM is available but here the device is itself made by google, and how is the camera quality as compared to the stock camera.
Please answer, so that I can take decision while buying a next pixel phone on the basis of xda community.

You get stock camera even in custom roms. I am AOSiP rom now and I am using stock apps. So basically you get everything thats stock with some customizations you can make.

OxygenOS Camera Vs ......

Hello friends, I really like the stock camera and that's why I do not detach from the beta versions to another ROM (Although I really like RR), for the camera, I like, but ... read it that the google camera gives better results than the stock, if we consider it a post of "VS" which camera do you prefer? (I do not mean other devices, I mean the app).
Thank you for your time and have a great end of the year and a happy new year
it's pretty well documented that the OxygenOS camera on the OxygenOS ROM is the best performing camera on the OnePlus 3 due to the closed-source optimizations that OnePlus has done for this device.

Android One Port from Mi A1 for Mi 5s

Hi guy's,
I love Stock Android and the current design (API and UI) of pixel smartphones - since Google has really done a lot of work with a lot of style in it.
My Generations: I came from HTC HD2 (Android, Windows Mobile, Windows Phone 7, Ubuntu Touch ect.)... next smartphone was the Galaxy S3 LTE (I flash the official Google Play Edition with a must for change the IMEI ect.), next was the HTC One M8 also converted to a GPE and my before last smarthphone was the Mi 4 LTE (with Windows Phone 10). Always the good alternative to the smartphone interested me. Now it interests me whether someone of you the bother and work dare to build this ROM (http://en.miui.com/thread-825694-1-1.html). The Nexus Experience: http://www.nxrom.us/mi5s.html
This seems to me to be somewhat too imprecise and has not the perfection that Project brings with it. Simply it is not a pureness Pixel/Nexus-feeling (the live wallpaper did not run, the Download Manager is missing, the setting menu is not 100% original etc. It lot is missing here and there) ...
I would like to help, because for me the build up of ROM's when it comes to the interface/UI and a bit around compiling the API, is an easiness for me (-
I would look forward to like-minded and teamwork. The whole thing should simply be a pleasure for the general public and be financed without money, even to learn about it :highfive:
I have a 5s with unlocked bootloader, installed Ressurection Remix 7.1.2 together with Nova Launcher (to enabled gestures) and Pixel camera port.
If you take away the amoled display og the Pixel, the Xiaomi 5s basically is a Pixel spec'ed phone for 1/3 of the price. If you want even more stock android feeling then go for LinageOS?

I really do not understand who would even buy Mi A1 which is in same price range as Mi 5s... Mi 5s have better hardware on first place, than even if you need stock rom, there is always LOS which is official for Mi 5s. I rest my case...
Guy's I mean the Pure Pixel Experience, everyone here who have a Stock Pixel with Oreo or Nougat in his hands? My friend have a Pixel, he work hard to get this phone but I do not agree to spend much money, only to own a Stock Clean Rom although it is cheaper. You can't compare the Nexus Experience Rom (I link in my last post above) and also LOS or any other ROM not with the original Pixel Rom. It must nevertheless be possible to build a Clone for the Mi 5s like the Mi 5 (see here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/development/rom-pure-nexus-t3578407).
I will ask the developer there, if he with help of me and other users from XDA to build a clean ROM. Still thank you for giving me suggestions, I really appreciate your time!
Have a nice day -cheers
I'm using opengapps to bring pixel launcher, assistant, and whatever google facility on it, but remember that none can clone pixel exactly the same. In case you won't get unlimited original sized photo backup, only real google pixel has it.
If you want pixel like experience you can flash LOS or whatever pure aosp then flash open gapps. You can adjust which to install or remove stock los apps using gapps config, go to opengapps wiki for it.
I mean the System UI and Settings don't look or have the same features egg., example the most AOSP Rom's for Mi 5s don't have Ambient Display Settings or Reading/Night Mode. Also the Google Live Wallpaper are not working and not included in the current GApps. The Rom's missing apps, for example the wallpaperpicker.apk ect.
Okay I must build my own Pixel Experience to get nearly a perfect Copy/Clone of an Pixel /XL. But yes, I will try my best to get a better Experience Rom and share my TWRP Backup here on XDA. Included Magisk and some Kernel Tweaks. The last Time I get a big battery drain with the current Nexus Experience Rom cauz I have enabled the Fingerprint Scan-Fix for Xiaomi Mi 5s (search on XDA for it). I find out that the 4 Cores working eveytime but with the current Miui 9 Rom on Idle, two of the four Cores from SD821 sleeping and the other 2 runs with 300-500 Mhz. That's a nice Kernel Management in Idle State and I tweak it

Visual core never worked for pixel 2 as even the default camera doesn't even use it till yet
Although third party apps like snapchat and Instagram can use that on custom roms as well

That's the main benefit of owning a pixel
You do not lose camera quality on pixel devices on custom rom something i learned from my Samsung days

It used by the camera app to create the HDR+ photos.
https://opensource.google.com/projects/pixelvisualcorecamera "Pixel Visual Core HDR+ processing with Camera API 1 and 2."
** correction ** it does appear to not use PVC although it's in the Camera API. Google do the HDR work in the app rather than the SoC, something about ZSL (zero shutter lag) impacting app performance. Waste of chip and money Google!

Well spoken. I'm coming from SONY and we got finally full API 2 Support for the Cameras with Pie. It was a pain in the A** to develop and it still is. Hope i get better Times here (Trying still to get a booting Stock ROM to play with).

Best option for improved camera on Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Exynos

Hi! I'm new here. I am a complete Android upgrade/update/root etc.. virgin. What I'd like to do is if possible. Instead of having to buy a Note 10 for vastly improved camera photo quality. Is there a camera mod for the Note 8 (Exynos) Is there a custom ROM thats known to have a great camera? I do currently have a version of Google Pixel Camera v5 which blows away the stock camera app but Google Camera's on v7 now. Also, is it possible to update my device to Android 10 etc? My goal here is simply, the best possible quality camera/photos. Thank you for any help in advance!

Question Picture quality using an AOSP Rom

Hi all,
I'm thinking about flashing LineageOS on my OnePlus 9 Pro (LE2120). A couple of days ago I read that the cooperation with Hasselblad for the camera contains 'only' the software- optimation. A hardware- optimation in cooperation with Hasselblad should come along with the future models.
So I suppose the software- optimation relates to the camera app of the Stock Rom and will be missing on an AOSP Rom. Do I guess right ? is there an App which works with the OnePlus 9 Pro camera in the same quality as the Stock Rom camera does ?
Thanks in advance.
No one has fully successfully ported Oneplus' camera software so it can be used with ROMs. People are working on it though. Some people report decent performance using Gcam although not quite as good as stock. I too am waiting for someone to figure out how to port oneplus' camera software. Last I read, CrDroid is working on it.
