Hi there,
I am sick of tired using MIUI and its childish design, so decided to upgrade to AOSP based custom ROMs for my Ginkgo. I can say that i tried almost all custom Q ROM's, but in every one of them built in camera app was taking photos all in yellow accent. It's weird but i've faced this issue for almost all Q ROM's so far. Trying GCam/trCam and plenty of other camera apps didn't help. But when i use WhatsApp's built-in camera, there is no problem. Also there is no problem with MIUI based custom ROM's like MIUI EU, MIUIMIX and MiRoom. So i'm pretty sure it's not related with the hardware, it's software based.
Weird thing is no one except me is talking about this. It's like i am the only one who is facing this bug. Any idea to fix this ****ty issue?

You’re not alone! I’ve only used ( I’m using Pixel Experience Q) and the stock cam has a warm tint, but I used a GCam with and set it to an inbuilt IMX 586 white balance preset ( Ik, the RN8 has a GM2) and it looked normal He devs should be able to fix it once Xiaomi comes out with actual android 10 miui so they can get proper android 10 blobs!
You are not alone indeed. Also, as well as fixing this, I'd like to understand how one selects between the various cameras. For example, how does one select the 48mp camera ?
(only installed rom last night, so need to play some more but very keen to find an answer to the yellow tint problem)
An update - having tried the camera again today, it is fine. I have both the built-in and open camera apps. I will do more testing tonight but this tinting thing might be a misapplication of some night-mode setting (no, I didn't have night-mode enabled when I tested the camera last night and got tinted results).
that is the issue with device tree
wait for new tree by fabian
Hello, I did some more testing last night. It seems (and I am no photographic expert) that if the camera is used in ambient light then it appears to work fine. If there is any "warm" light (such as from a light bulb) in the area it can see then it over-tones yellow. I tried it in the evening and again this morning. I guess we just need to wait for the device tree?
I did wonder if installing the MIUI camera app would work better - I haven't tried it but I guess the device tree would make this an issue at a lower level than the apps...
im curious about this yellow tint as well, a friend has an iphone 11 pro with no yellow tint in the same room as me, note 8t same problem as op's

I have a OnePlus 3. I did a full wipe and installed TugaPower. Great ROM and really smooth and snappy. However my camera takes really bad pics: it looks like it's overexposing a colour or applying a filter. I was on stock and then Resurrection ROM before this and no issues there.
So pics will come out really white (even without flash), really foggy like a filter has been applied or in a blue-ish colour. I've reinstalled the ROM, again after a full wipe but same happens. I've tried three different camera apps as welll, all have the same problem. I would say 7 out of every 10 pics are affected this way. A few pics can be found here. I literally took directly after each other. As you can see the quality differs wildly.
I don't think this is a Tugapower issue as no one seems to be having this so posting this here instead.
I cleaned the lense of the camera as well.
Any ideas or tips are much appreciated...
Update: flashed the unified RessurectionRemix ROM and camera is taking nice pictures again.

Try Sultans ROM, still on marshmallow but if you want a camera experience identical to OOS (in my opinion better) and good stability and performance, that's where its at.
I don't get it.. oxygen beta release is better than any ROM you can download here and not lose the camera!
On lineage the pictures are really good
Heollo guys,
as I still own a SGS4mini (i9195), that was running on KitKat, I wanted to improve it a bit.
THerefore, I flashed lineage-13.0-20170318-nightly-serranoltexx-signed.zip.
Basically, most of the things are running fine (as long as you don't use the SD card as internal storage). But a major topic is the camera. The focus is always pumping around and very often just does exactly the wrong thing when the picture gets taken - thus resulting in a lot of blurry pictures.
Do you know some workaround for this?
Thanks,
Matthias
You can try the unofficial LOS 14.1 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga.../rom-cyanogenmod-14-0-s4-mini-3g-lte-t3471761
Even tho it is still listed as [TEST], the ROM had been stable as daily driver for me, and camera works for me. <Tap to set focus works. The S4 has a pretty crappy camera compared to current gen phones, I get lots of motion blurring / artifacts in low light.>
You may also try a different camera app for more control options, although I found stock is pretty good for me.
Hi, My OP5T will be arriving in a couple days and I will be modifying it immediately. Personal preference. I was just wondering if there is any differences between the camera on the stock ROM and on a custom ROM? If it's not a massive difference I wouldn't mind.
Much appreciated!
hey, I'm interested in this too. specifically the dots - will they appear in all custom roms due to lacking oos camera drivers?
hope someone can clarify!
thx,
vercetti
Tried both, tried 5 other camera software - none are good enough, returned mine. Remember that you have 14/15 days for the return. Out of the best camera software I found either stock camera in pro mode, or Better Camera with best shot enabled. it takes 3 pictures and selects the best one with least blur - exceptionally useful to compensate for lack of OIS>
As title. I really want to know the differences between 2 camera apps on OnePlus 5T hardware, as I want to try custom ROM but afraid of missing the ability to take portrait mode photos.
I've tried a couple of custom ROM's. But as of now nothing beats OOS Camera features. Interestingly, someone started this thread just today. Thinking of trying out these custom ROM's
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/help/custom-rom-oos-camera-included-default-t3851694
I totally agree with "poythegraeat" but at the moment I cannot find a good AOSP custom rom with OOS cam included and I'll never use a decripted smartphone or a closed source rom. I'll stay with LOS for microg + gcam under privacyguard and firewall. I also tried the OOS porting for lineage but videos are not working in 1080p, 18:9 cause app crashing.. now it's still really buggy.
Differences gcam vs OOS cam: at the daylight, in optimal condition, they are very similar (You must use "5t library fix" and "Pixel 2 colour" magisk module, and you must use hdr+ too, otherwise you will get glitchy photo). In very low light gcam is totally unusable. In normal low light is barely acceptable (OOS is totally better in low light).. Video stability,portrait mode and slow motion is lost with gcam. If your concern is privacy and you want a custom rom, I think that gcam is a good option. If you only need customization: my advice is strongly to use oxygenos and root it.
@rmroot
What you think OOS is closed source?
https://github.com/OnePlusOSS
OOS has mixed licence (and so closed source too), it's not fully open source. OOS has closed source apks and parts of the sistem that log the user like a malware could do, if you are interested in this particular topic I suggest you to search on the subreddit "privacytoolsIO". You will find a recent post about OxygenOS privacy and some analyzes posted on twitter by a security researcher.
@rmroot I'm a Geek and Professional already on these topics...
I've been doing this a very long time, personally and professionally, sorry if I confused you. I keep making assumptions with comments like that because we are on a Android Developers forum...
Anyhow I should of thought before I posted that...
I meant it's Open in the Context outside of Google and what manufacturers have in the way of their hardware firmware blobs.
So outside of Google and hardware firmware blobs, that's the Open I meant, and why there's a Repo...
Cheers
Hello everyone, I'll be getting my Poco F3 tomorrow and I have a few questions. Most of them were asked already but they're relatively old already and I'm unsure whether it got fixed or not. Anyways, here are my questions.
1) Was the proximity sensor issue patched/fixed? Is it any better than the release? I've seen quite a few commentaries regarding it's poor quality.
If it didn't get fixed, what are some workarounds?
2) In Samsung phones (at least a few years back) your camera quality used to be ABSOLUTELY TRASH if you used an AOSP ROM. Does the same happen with this phone? If so, GCam is the only workaround?
3) Is the real world performance (gaming, scrolling, app loading times) lower in AOSP ROMs?
Please reply to this one only if you have measured the performance on both ROMs yourself instead of repeating what somebody else said (we don't know the variables they had during testing).
4) Is it possible to flash an official recovery ROM with a locked bootloader? If so, would this tool be the safest way to do?

5) Is it possible to downgrade a update through flashing a recovery ROM? (e.g. 12.5.7 to 12.5.6).
6) Is the screen dimming when gaming still an issue? If not, are there any workarounds?
7) Are there any other issues that I didn't mention or things you'd like to say?
Notes:
- When I say "AOSP ROMs" I'm mainly thinking about Lineage and MicroG for Lineage.
- Feel free to only reply to one or two of them, I'll be happy as long as the information is legitimate.
1. ROMs based on the ROM that was banned from here due to its name trees generally don't have much issue with it, as long as the hardware goes - it is as inaccurate on MIUI. With some lower quality ROMs it may be better or worse, as with anything else
There was one workaround with disabling the proximity sensor and turning off the screen when in-call, but that's rather a half measure.
2. There is MIUI camera port for Alioth somewhere, but as now most ROMs are based on A12 the compatibility may vary.
Gcam by BSG works well even with default settings and it supports all the hardware, so there's that. Needless to say, it doesn't support upscaling present in MIUI cam (so the front camera will take ~5 Mpix photos, compared to the fake 20 Mpix in MIUI).
3. I've used MIUI and some AOSP/Pixel ROM for some time and although benchmarking apps indeed show a little lower scores on AOSP (at least the few I've tried), AOSP ROMs generally feel more snappy - the difference may stem from the UX itself tho (i.e. janky MIUI gestures vs AOSP gestures).
4. I'd say it's always safer to go with official fasboot ROMs. Alioth is a bit messy when it comes to recovery in general; some ROMs work only with their own recovery images, some are recommended to use with the AOSP recovery, and both official and unofficial TWRPs aren't stable enough (or really worth it, IMO).
5. No idea; I believe Alioth has ARP, so you may need a workaround for it.
6. Never happened to me (MIUI or AOSP), it may be either vendor or screen panel specific.
7. Some people report slow charging speeds, which (as long it doesn't take over two hours) may be considered a feature as constant charging with full power is known to exhaust PMIC chips leading to hardware failures in the long run.
Apart from that, there is the green tint, which may happen in 120 Hz mode on some panels, but it is calibrated in some ROMs. It does occur on MIUI too.
EDIT: Also idle drain, but that's again ROM specific. Iirc LineageOS is generally stable when it comes to that.
Thank you very much for your reply, I have the device for a day and I have no issues with it.
My only qualm is the display panel on low brightness which looks rather bad (colors seem to shift only on certain areas, probably because it's not dimming it evenly) but that's fair considering the price point of the phone.
Also, the camera isn't even as bad as I thought, a happy surprise.
