Being a photographer, I don't think I am going to be able to use an AOSP ROM cause the Camera options just fail in comparison to the stock camera.
But it would be awesome to have the themeing options of the CM based roms. Any such luck?

I don't think that's possible
Thanks,
Kind of what I assumed. I have been out of the flashing game for awhile but the Verizon update to Lollipop was just horrendous I had to do something. Flashed Euphoria and aside from some issues love being back on an AOSP ROM, just really unfortunate that the Camera situation is so dismal. I have even flashed the Lenovo Cam with the Bravia engine etc, just not stable or fast enough
I just got my note 3 pro and I really like the device and I have no problem with using MiUi, but I have considered to maybe put cm 13 or 14 on it. I have heard that the kernel that Xiaomi have released is old and outdated and never version of the note 3 might come into some problems. Is that true?
What about the camera on cm is it as good as on stock?
I've been using CM 13 from the moment I got this phone and it's the most stable rom for me. As for the camera, yes it is better than stock since it lets you record 720/1080p at @60 fps (even 4k at 20~fps), while the camera on MIUI is limited at 720/1080p, only at 30 fps. If you decide to flash official CM 13, you could try flashing Radon Kernel which probably has the most features so far ("double tap to wake" recently added!). Make sure you read the instructions first since this kernel is NOT compatible with every custom rom, but it will work for most of them.

What about flash. Is that working? In other phones when using cm the flash would come on to later or early making it impossible to use the camera in low light situations.

Works fine, but the camera on this phone is generally terrible in anything except direct sunlight anyway.

Flash works just fine, but as "banana_bender" mentioned, don't expect any decent results in low-light situations, especially for 60 fps recordings.
In terms of photo quality, I think MIUI camera performs better than CM and other custom rom camera's. It's the reason I'm still using MIUI.
I like the CM 13, but the sound quality. I too low.
Does camera quality differs in custom rom than in stock rom as i find better clicking pictures on stock camerw then on custom camera, i m bit confused whether to remain on stock rom for camera or to go for. Custom rom, do anyone find differences in picture quality on custom roms

I don't find any difference, bw in Miui 8 Camera output is bit washed out lack of colors and contrast, while in custom roms i think its better and u will Miss Miui HDR nothing can beat Miui HDR
So by yout. Opinion what is better miui stock or custom roms as i personally dont find any difference but still one side of my mind says tk remain on stock for camera, m totally confused i flash lot of roms but again i get back to stock, its very hectic to get back tk stock again, wastes 2 3hrs of day to get back

AOSP roms have really really bad camera. Its worse in low light places.
Is there anyway to improve it? Any camera apk or a good rom that isn't MIUI based? 3;

Probably not, at least not until Xiaomi releases the kernel source.

At least is oreo kernel opensource? If so, does the oreo AOSP has better camera?
I have seen some of the 600 series processor phones with performance in custom roms better than the stock rom.
What's going on with POCO?
I can't directly ask a developer because there is always someone against me saying ' it's his free time hobby that he is giving us time, you should not ask any question regarding his work '. Ok that's fine! But performance issue only with POCO, I don't get it.........
I hate MIUI because of it's User experience, so I search for ROMs with stock experience but I didn't find any , forget about getting better than MIUI but same as Miui's performance. It's no more snapdragon 845 phone anymore with custom roms............. Go compare with other Manufacturers..
Yeah, I kind of see what you mean... Some custom ROMs have pretty bad performance compared with stock for whatever reason. I've noticed that the only ROM faster than MIUI on Poco is OxygenOS. It's been my daily driver for a while now. Nitrogen is also quite good as far as I remember... I try to stay away from custom ROMs because of the unsatisfying performance. I only switch between MIUI and OOS now.

I have used it bro, it's really fast but the only thing it lacks is the touch response or smoothness like MIUI.
If it was I wouldn't had any complaints...
i dont get it, where is it faster? what kind of performance? im using aosip, its much smoother than miui and is totaly fast, no complains at all. i also tried oos, miui eu, mi room, linage, pe, havoc, crdroid, nos and few more others, none had "bad performance". can you tell me what exactly do you mean? i experinced laggs and stuttering only on miui

laugh as much as you want, i know what i see. i was using miui for months, now since february on aosip, just love it. miui eu still as primary on multirom, aosip, oos, los, pe and nos as secondary. but most time using aosip, also the only one secured with fingerprint and code.

Crdroid is better than MIUI imo. Especially in the latest updates.
I'm using some magisk modules for increasing smoothness, but all in all its performance is over the top out of the box.
P.S. Hold in mind that the phones you're mentioning are probably older than the Poco.
As time goes by, devs fix bugs and embed new things even from other devices to make the phone run better. So time works in favor of the custom ROMs.

The good thing of MIUI is performance (although as i said, crdroid performs even better imo).
Smoothness is non-existent. The first month i was using MIUI i had started wandering why i bought the Poco, since my 3 year old zuk z2 felt smoother.
The lags and the stuttering are everywhere except the menus.
I'm using LineageOS and I don't notice a difference in performance in day-to-day use. Perhaps in gaming MIUI might be better, but you kinda expect that due to optimization.
Maybe because of the kernel?? Im also a fan of miui because of the custom.kernel that works great on it...
hi everyone, i am still using MIUI global rom. current version 10.3.4.
i do have interest to unlock my phone and switch to other rom. but two things in my concern, the native miui camera app and esim.
in asia, we do have one app that will use the built in esim feature , am i still getting this benefit from custom rom too?

Well regarding the native Miui camera, you can install the port on your custom rom but few features wont work such as 120fps and 240fps slow mo and few more. But all basic features will work such as taking a photo or recording video.
Sadly, No idea about esim though.

I know exactly what you are talking about. Well the only reason why one can feel custom roms to be less snappy than MIUI is because of the optimizations that MIUI has for POCO F1 for it's touch response. You must be knowing about touch response issue of Poco F1 and Xiamoi has done lot's of optimization not only in it's vendor files but also in the MIUI for Poco itself to rectify the issue as much as possible. And this is something AOSP roms or any other roms lack because mostly AOSP roms are universal made and minor tweaks are done to make it work with a certain device so level of per device tweak is pretty less.
Now if you directly compare the performance of a custom rom (I am using Pixel Experience) with MIUI, both open apps at almost the same time and both are fluid. I don't care about the benchmarks because that really doesn't define anything related to personal experience.
So despite knowing this factor, I went for custom rom because I felt like Poco F1 does not deserve that crappy and cheap MIUI experience which is on offer. And Pixel Experience has been a great rom till date.
I think you should give a try to custom roms such as Oxygen OS or any good AOSP based rom such as Pixel Experience (my recommendation) or Nitrogen OS. Also Lineage OS is very good but its too much basic for me.
I just cant agree with this topic, I can feel that every custom rom developed here was amazing. I noticed the most biggest improvement for custom rom was it feel so snappy compared to stock rom. And i managed to squeeze more battery life than stock rom. But one thing stock rom for sure to win was, its picture taken using its stock camera app. I know we can use google camera, but when using aosp camera it the quality was too bad, so much difference from stock miui camera.
What about .eu miui stable releases? They have rectified most of the annoyances of miui global. Anyone tried it?
If someone from asia (india) uses .eu miui rom, will everything work properly without any region related issues?

Maybe stop flashing random Magisk modules and other crap which interferes with the system.
I've never had any issues with MIUI, it was always smooth and performing very well out of the box.

I have to assume that you cannot read English very well.
I mentioned that i use magisk modules that IMPROVE my experience with my CURRENT ROM.
I am getting better performance and better SOT than with MIUI.
To clarify things, I was using MIUI with locked bootloader and without any modifications.

The improvements are slightly noticable, but it's not just a placebo (at least on crdroid).
+They don't affect the battery negatively.
