Question....The LG G3 takes some outstanding pictures and the Laser really helps for snappy focusing, but I wanted to know if 3rd party apps can take advantage of that as well? For Example, Camera FV-5 is usually my go-to app, but I don't really want to lose the snappiness that the Laser Focus gives the standard App. Do other apps take advantage of it or is this something that only works within the actual LG Camera App? Also, what about AOSP roms? Does it work on Camera apps if I'm on, let's say, CM or Paranoid?
I think I just found my own answer.....I swear I googled this before and couldn't find an answer, but came across this:http://www.reddit.com/r/LGG3/comments/2ncdjs/best_app_for_camera_photovideo/
As suggested, I opened another camera app and looked to see if the laser had a red blinking light, and it surely did. This makes me "think" that other apps DO use it. As far as CM and/or Paranoid or any other AOSP OS goes, I guess I just have to install and see.

On all the previous devices I've had, when taking pictures in a low light environment the flash is used while focusing so the camera can see what it's looking at. However, on the DNA (running a Sense rom) that doesn't happen, and I end up with a lot blurry/unfocused shots. Is there any way to fix this? I like the Sense camera app (and hate the AOSP one) but this missing feature is a killer.

I have Xperia Z1c. No official MM, but so far many nice custom ROMs. Current state of things, camera-wise, is that the latest blobs have been integrated into AOSP, and those ROMs take nice pictures. CM has been slower with updates, but lately has made some progress. Unfortunately, only one of the MM ROMs that is CM bases, (Vanir), is under active development. The others still have same files from months ago. Here's the problem: built-in Snap app is buggy, and won't autofocus properly, but will take good pictures at random, you just can't control it, and all 3rd-party apps, although working well and taking excellent pictures, will not show anything on the screen, (all black), except app buttons, which all work fine. Anyone have any insight into this? Could it be a permissions issue or something?
Over a year ago I had a camera on my phone that had a front facing flash on it. I can't remember if it was built into a rom or of it was a camera app someone on here made. But it used the border of the camera as the "flash" by making the entire border bright white. Worked great but for some reason the feature didn't stock around for very long. Poked around in the app store and didn't really see anything that works as well as it did. It was a modified Google or passivity LG camera app.
Snapchat does this i know that
Hey guys,
since I got my OnePlus 3 and changed to CM13 Rom (Android 6.0.1) the camera isn't that good.
Also the Oxygen Camera isn't the best regarding to the less setting options.
Since I ever wondered which might be the best android camera app I now decided to start this thread.
I've searched for hours and informed me about the topic as good as I could but without any acceptable results.
What do I especially mean with "best camera app"?
It's not those nonsense features like filters or something that I need.
I am searching for a camera app which main feature is really based on taking photos in best quality
and having most possible setting options in order to that.
The best result I found seems to be the Camera FV-5
Do you have camera apps for android which are even better?
Thanks in advance, guys

I know this is a bit late, but have you tried Open Camera? It's a great open source camera that has many features to control, such as fixed/auto focus, iso, resolution, timer, burst, white balance, scenes, color effects, shooting in raw, exposure bracketing for HDR, and more.

If you don't like the camera's quality it is because the google camera app is not the best for the grand prime, actually this is the problem of all ROMs based on the pure android, isn't the image clear enough? does the image looks blurred?
I've been comparing my camera on android oreo with my another phone (both are the same model), one has the stock Android and the other one has the pure Android 8 and the differences are huge, how to work around this problem?
Well... I have researched and talked to devs about this and it turns out that the drivers of the camera are the same as the stock firmware, but the only thing what changes the quality is how the image is processed by the camera application.
So who's the one to blame? The camera app.
What is the solution?
The real solution is to use ROMs based on the stock ROM, i.e. touchwiz, but I have noticed that many people still prefer using the pure Android so this solution is not possible. There is still another way.
CyanogenMod camera and fine adjustments
That's what you read, with the 'old' Cyanogen camera app you can have better pictures.
First, install this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maartendekkers.cyanapps
It's called Cyan Apps if the link isn't working.
and then...
Choose 'camera' on CM's 13 sectionNote: Don't choose the CM 14.1 version because it crashes when you start recording a video or change to frontal camera.
Download and install it.
Adjustments
Open the camera and go to settings, drag down until the last options and turn off the Denoise option, then go to the sharpness and set to the level 0 (or do whatever you think is better) and go to the picture quality and set to it 100%. The rest of the options you can leave in the default level.
Optional
You can, alternatively, with root access make this a system application and delete the other one just to have only one default camera for your ROM.
In the images attached below I want you to pay attention in the sharpness of the image and the quality, I hope you don't mind if I'm a bad photographer.
UPDATE: I know the link is broken and the reason is because the Cyan Apps has been removed from playstore, I don't know why, but you know now the secret to make the image good-looking, you have to turn off denoise option which comes by default turned on in all Samsung cameras. Find an APP that can make this for you. Best Regards
Holt sh*t dude.. it fixed my camera quality. Now the photo quality can be compared to stock cam.
Although now the photos are a little noisy and kinda looks little bad on low light..but it's really good on places with light.

Low light is always an enemy for the camera
This WILL also work on Snap-based (that's the camera included on most AOSP ROMs) cameras.
