I'm a big fan of CM and other non-Samsung versions of Android. In the past, there has been no real reason to keep Samsung based ROMs. But with the S3, the stock camera app seems so much better than everything else, this is a problem.
Are there any ways of running the stock camera app in CM at the moment?
OR
Are there any alternative camera apps that can do the kind of continuous speed shooting (20 exposures etc.) that the Samsung stock app can do?

I would recommend using hx camera mod. I can say that it 's the best camera app so far especially when recording a video at 30Mbit - 1080p superfine. Try to look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691145 or http://hx-custom-roms.com/galaxy-s3-camera-mod

Thanks. I think this will only work on stock roms though as it is Samsung framework dependant. What I really want is something that will allow me to leave Samsung roms and move to for example Cyanogen mod, but keep the additional functionality found in the Samsung camera app.

I've been looking for a better camera app.
By "better", I am referring to faster/quality. Not instagram and other image manipulation nonsense.
I am also aware that we are limited by hardware, but still there must be something better.
Has anyone found a suitable contender?

Is there any way to improve the quality of the camera? It is almost useless. Rooting or something?

The best camera, IMHO, is LG Camera Pro.
Better Camera App
I am using super app LGcamera (there is free version too) and there is available to set these things:
video bitrate (default is 15MBps) i use 20MBps
audio quality is better (FULL HD VIDEO) 96kbps, mono, 48000HZ
you can change your save destination
take a photo while recording a movie
....and more
Hey guys
thanks for the opinion!
I've tried for a while jb+ and I enjoyed it more than the stock one (was faster and minimal UI). I did not enjoy however the way you change settings, it seemed awkward. Also the video recorder does no support 1080. Another thing was the lighting setting, auto mode was rubbish and I had to manually select lighting for each photo.
Starting today, I'll be trying LGcamera.
So far, I'm impressed. It really feels solid and works good.
Video supports 1080 and takes photos at 5MP(stock takes photos at 2MP, I believe)
Focus seems better to.
I'd like to ask you guys:
What settings to you use? (focus, photo mode, light)
Also for video
Thanks!
I'm a fan of the stock Nexus camera app and purchased Camera JB+....works for me.

Those options have terrible video framerates.
CameraJB+, LGCamera, Camera FV-5, give me bad framerates in video. I'm not sure if there's a fix or something but in darker areas like indoors, the exposure doesn't fix so the framerates dip into the single digits. The only thing I want is just timestamped filenames. Is there a modified Stock possibly?

Hey, I see what you mean and I think I can help you.
Here's what you need to do:
1. Get root access to your device (there're plenty of ways)
2. Unzip the attached archive and replace your device's media_profiles.xml with the one from the archive.
To do that, use Root Explorer app and go to /etc. Copy new media profiles and confirm the replacement. Then, don't forget to set the permissions of the new one to rw-r--r--.
3. Restart your device.
Now you have better sound quality in stock app (48000 kHz, 160 kbps) and you have better fps compatibility.
There're several apps for you to use:
a) For better quality and control, you can use FV-5 Cinema app. You should get fixed 30 fps under default settings.
b) As for LGCamera (the one with the older interface, version number around 5.4), you should set fps to 25 and you will get a stable 25 fps, regardless of the lighting.
c) However, if you are using the newer LGCamera (version 7), you'll have to go for a little trick:
Launch the app, and set the fps to 30. Now, go to Setting tab (the last one), select "Edit camera script" and add the following after the existing lines:
preview-fps-range=30000,30000
Now, restart LGCamera app, and you will have stable 30fps performance.
So, there're 3 options for you, choose whichever you like
P.S. I have P765 with the stock firmware from P760, version 20p.
Thanks but

That trick unfortunately didn't make a difference.. All third party apps are still agonizingly laggy. Thanks though, it was worth the shot.
While the CM13 included camera app is relatively fast and great for quick-snap photos, I did manage to make some impressive photos while playing around on EMUI camera in Pro mode (before I flashed the phone), looking suprisingly good for such a low tier camera.
Since there's no manual mode in CM13, which camera app would you recommend to purchase/download(if free)?
Also, is the HDR bug guaranteed to occur in every app?
Thanks in advance!
Snap Camera works great!
How do u get SnapCamera on CM? Can you just flash it or..

As far as I'm aware Honor 5x nightlies don't include the Snap camera yet. It ships with the legacy Camera, which takes mediocre pictures and can't do HDR or Panoramas.
Google Camera is available for Panoramas, but the accelerometer/gyroscope is very jittery on the phone, so the stitching doesn't do a good job.
I don't think this issue is gonna be resolved until Camera2 API is ported into our CM nightly.

I do think the same, it's about software, not a specific camera app
I tried putting the ro.camera2.prtabilty.force_api=1 in the default.prop file by splitting boot.img and reflashing boot.IMG, putting manual focus line in build.prop and then flashing the ported emui 4.0 camera with twrp... Still badluck as it says Unfortunately, camera has stopped working
Just use Cm marsh(cm based costom ROM ) comes with snap camera

I've found that, no matter what camera app I install, I can't get the same picture quality I used to get on the stock ROM. Is there a reason for this? The drivers, maybe?

I guess is the camera processing is different on stock ROM from custom ROMs
Hi all,
Im thinking about getting back to stock firmware because Im not able to find a camera app that suites my usage needs. This is for me the best camera app i used but unfortunately it does not work on custom roms.
Since I turned to LOS, i couldn't become friends with:
-LOS stock cam app
-Google camera
-Camera Zoom FX
and some others i tried and deleted.
Best so far but still not really satisfying is Open Camera.
Is there some app that comes close to the V10 camera or is better than open camera?
Thanks for any answer!

some say footej other proshot are best for LOS.
as for v10.. ccamera its not the camera app. its the framework..used in tock LG based roms..
Hey, i think footej is a bit better than open camera but only in pro version, because only in pro version you can set jpeg quality to high.
Only footej camera premium! Basic isnt good but premium (paid) is the best.
Thanks for the input. Footej seemed really good. Unfortunately, before buying it it crashed when i was selecting the shutter speed. I mailed the support and wrote about it. I think i'll wait a little longer before buying the app. Also, the phone gets really hot regardless of the cam app i use. Any idea why? i cant recall if it was the same before LOS. Other than that, it seems like a really good alternative.
lightroom the best
Guys in Proshot there is Noise reduction adjustments. Manual doesn't say which one does what. There is NR HQ and LQ. My question is which option out of the two has least noise reduction as High quality vs Low Quality could be interpreted in different ways. One where High quality means lower noise reduction and other High quality meaning high strength of noise reduction applied meaning more smooth photo and less noise. Unfortunately Proshot manual does not list any description and can't find info anywhere. Thoughts guys?

For me Proshot camera is the best "alternative" app for take good quality photos... After this I can tell you that noise reduction in LQ works better than HQ, pics seems more real and smooth, HQ is too aggressive and photos loose their quality.

Ok that is where confusion lies. Tell me this. In LQ or HQ you see more grain in pictures ?
Actually is not so easy to answer. It depends a lot from light and colours. Sometimes HQ specially in day lights give better results, less grain and sharper photos, but sometimes specially in the dark LQ is better less sharp but photo quality and grains are better. For sure without noise reduction grain is always too much
I'm looking to get a G4 and installing LOS. But I don't know what 3rd party camera has manual controls for still pictures and/or video.
What's the slowest shutter speed I can get with them?
What are the framerates available?
Please don't hesitate to give as much info as you guys can muster.
Thanks.

i ditched LOS and went back to imperium rom. I tried Camera ZOOM fx, Footej Camera, Google camera, open camera, free camera and some others i think. For me, none of them came close to the stock camera app or V10 Camera ported to G4 but the one i liked the most was Footej camera. As others said, it is an driver issue in Nougat based LOS. Once the official nougat camera drivers are included in LOS, i might go back. The lack of a camera app that i could use comfortably was a dealbreaker for me.
I've had this same issue as well. I was using a stock based rom, but it stopped being updated, and my phone kept trying to update, using all my mobile data in the process. I couldn't find a way of stopping it downloading the update I couldn't install, so switched to resurrection remix, but now have the same camera problem. http://telewizor.serwis-tv.com/?lcd,23 I've been using Open Camera mostly, but its not ideal. I never thought this would be as big of an issue as it was.
What about snapdragon camera with hdr or hacked google camera with hdr+? Links are in AOSCP rom.
Which of the camera apps is able to make 360° photos compatible with facebook, like Samsung does?
I have tried Google Camera, various versions (original 3.2, 4.0 and modded 4.4), but all of them crash with error "Can't connect to camera" when I select Photo Sphere or Panorama in menu...I have stock Nougat (V29A) with titan kernel...
Hey there guys, i have 9.0 pixel experience ROM on my RN4. Camera2api enabled.
I don't know which version of gcam i am currently using but it gives a lot of force close errors and a green tint on front cam too.
I tried a lot of apps to know whether I've a Samsung or Sony sensor in it, but to no avail.
Would you please be so kind as to point me to the best gcam version suitable for my device right now?
Thank you so much kind stranger.

NO FC's, no green tint, portrait works, HDR works for both front and back and you can choose bitrate for video recording, using it for months and never looked back.
To avoid issues first fully remove old gcams you have installed.
Also i recommend flashing this magisk modules: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1RkHruqNGIKnkgfhX0B7BaeEGYc-airBc
It will let you record in [email protected], fixes distorted sound in video recordings and enables 30fps in viewfinder. (it works for Samsung / Sony, not sure about Omnivision)
To check which sensor you have just run some logcat reader, open gcam and shoot few pics, look for sensor info in log.
What is gcam? Can anyone explain.

Gcam stands for Google Camera. That's camera app from Google and it is originally found on Google (Pixel, etc.) devices. However, when using it on other phones, it can significantly improve photo quality in comparison to what stock camera and other available alternatives on the market can achieve. That's because Google Camera relies heavily on "clever" software and superior photo processing algorithms capable of generating and preserving more data. So even hardware-wise "bad cameras" can benefit from using it. Of course there are some downsides as well, since the app is not designed to be run on other - non Google - devices you need modified version of it in order to use it. That said there are many different modifications of said application with variuos degrees of functionality, bugs and stability. You can check most of them collected here.
