Difference in camera quality of google cam in oxygen OS and custom ROM - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Dear users,
I want to know that is there a difference in the camera quality of pictures taken by modded google camera installed on Oxygen ROM as compared to the same picture captured by the same google camera version while on custom ROM at the same lighting condition as well.

Let's discuss about: which rom has the best camera quality?

I've tried global stable rom 10.3.5.0, eu stable rom, masik x and xiaomi.eu rom. After trying all of that I've reverted back to my original china stable rom 10.3.1.0...
Because i've found the camera quality to be superior on the chinese rom. I've found poor camera quality and shutter lagging issues on all the other roms(latest versions).
What do you guys think?
Now im in miui global stable 10.3.5.0 (PFGMIXM), and i think miui cam just better than google camera (build by bsg, arnova, bulkin, and etc) on morning untill afternoon.
But on night, google camera has better with night mode compared with miui night mode.

Try capturing a selfie specially in low light or indoor lighting condition and instantly move the phone after the capture...I've seen the photos get totally distorted if i do that in miui 10.3.5.0 pfgmixm..
And the overall camera performance also seemed poor than miui china version. I am not judging or anything, just my experience.

How about this, try installing any rom. ( Not Miui )
Try the following.
Gcam ( ported )
Google Camera ( play store )
ANXcamera ( Miui Camera with additional features )
Stock camera ( stock custom rom camera )

K20pro stock camera and gallery for custom roms

Can anyone please port the stock camera and gallery of the k20pro for custom roms. I want to root the phone and install a new rom but don't want to lose the crazy camera features and gallery features like sky filters, object cutouts, aperture adjustments & studio lighting. For the first time MI gave something that made me stick to the stock rom. Is there any solution for this? I want to switch but I am addicted to this camera, and Gcam doesn't perform as good as it does on other phones, so yeah if I switch its going to be with the stock camera. Please help! Thanks in advance
Gcam v7 works miles ahead of the stock cam!
But stock on custom will not be possible.. It needs the xiaomi framework & libs to function & customs don't have it.

Use ANX camera .

mi a2 gcam front camera only 5mp ?

Is there anyway to use the full 20mp in front facing camera.. All gcam takes default 5mp by pixel binding.. also flash didn't work like stock... It acts like a torch while capturing photo

i am using miui 12 pie and both stock and gcam are working at the same time .....
both have their advantages....
1. gcam uses pixel binning ( combining ) them
_so your camera is not really using 5mpx ..it is using max pixels merged into a 5mpx output_
_this might give you a good or better looking photo than some 20mpx sensors on some phones
_people use gcam because of Google's theoretical excellence in processing photos *** therefore better photos than stock ... because if you feel.stock has better photos than there is no argument for using gcam
2. gcam mods which allow you to choose to manually force the gcam to use the secondary ( aux ) exist ...you can use it in combo with magisk modules
_dont expect a giant leap in photo quality since our aux sensor is for low light ...and was never meant not even by Xiaomi to act as the main shooter
_stock camera changing between sensors automatically while in gcam.you will. have to.do.it manually _
_VERY IMPORTANTLy ...our aux sensor is NOT api2 compliant only our main sensor ...as per Xiaomi ...so Xiaomi needs to fix that if it can be fixed....that is why our phone isn't released with api2 enabled..
Options:
1. Use magisk module in stock rom to get stock camera
2. Use stock rom to use miui 12 pie to get both stock and gcam working at the same time
3. Use gcam with aux sensor select button in settings to activate it manually in custom rom
4. buy a jasmine or wayne device and donate it to gcam.modder or dev stating your wish that he/she fixes it so it runs how you feel.it should run
I'm pretty certain this info is old and if you looked you'd find all the magisk modules and gcams and mods and info floating around ...
go check out the official gcam mods page for devs working on cams for our device and try them.all to find the one you like best and maybe give them.a small donation
try out the stock cam magisk module to see if it works correctly on custom rom
failing that just your miui with magisk to have it all.
Stock makes great depth of field photos imho
Gcam takes richer photos in general like but if you aren't careful you might run in oversaturation ..more options
_you can enable arcore and ar stickers by magisk mod and using patched playground from gcam mods page
This doesn't seem to be a GCam issue... All camera apps just see 5MP for the front and secondary back camera. It's probably an internal issue with Camera2Api?

Question Working Gcam mods for Realme 8i?

Are there any working modifications of Google camera, that will enhance picture/video quality compared to default stock camera?

Question 48 MP IN AOSP ROM?

I have tried Gcam and MIUI Camera magisk module, but none of them allow me to use the full extent of 48MP camera on the device, photos taken in GCAM show up as photos taken from a 12MP camera and the ones taken from the MIUI cam is shown as those taken from a 8MP Camera, how can I use the full extent of 48MP Camera?
Just saying , Im using the Unofficial Superior OS Rom, based on A13

not possible
MIUI cam depends heavily depends from the ROM configurations, MIUI core and libs for it to work. those need to be built into the ROM in default
thats why you get those 8MP shots
on my redmi note 9 pro, ROMs that fail on these dependencies above will take shots of much lower resolution from the 64MP camera, and even worse from the pixel binning (16MP, basically the "Photo" mode in the viewfinder), including the failure of some camera modes, like portrait.
these dependencies need to be from their own phone, so, the redmi note 9 pro has to have its original MIUI camera core and libs, so does the redmi note 10 5g.
ROMs cannot have another phones dependecies or else it would probably be a bricking ROM (if those are built in, same for flashing systemless camera modules sometimes)
GCam is a normal phenomenon, GCam always uses pixel binning.
for instance, the redmi note 9 pro has pixel binning from 64MP down to 16MP.
the redmi note 10 5g has from 48MP down to 12MP, thats your result
64/4=16
48/4=12
this occurence of pixel binning is the process of combining pixels into larger ones, capturing more light and reducing artifacts on the photo. however, most of the detail is preserved, therefore there shouldnt be any issues on the general quality
theres really no possible way of using the 48MP camera sensor to offer a high-resolution image. however, you can use the upscaling function (if it’s available in the GCam port you installed) to enlarge your picture. but take note, it won’t have any effect on the image’s quality and it will remain just like the 12mp one (basically resizing a 2000x2000 picture to 4000x4000), making any gallery app think it is a high-resolution image and let you zoom in.
