Camera in Marshmallow onwards

[eduardodfj]

Hello.

There are plenty of Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs for Z1C and some of them work very well... Except for the fact that I haven't found a single one where the camera works properly. I wouldn't mind slow focus and green parts of the screen, but the resulting picture must be properly focused and with correct brightness.

Am I missing something? Is there any ROM (in- our outside of CM nightlies) with a proper camera?

Thanks.

I don't think so for N yet, but for MM, there were a couple, but you need to find the right builds. I seem to remember an AOSP build from July that worked well, and I think a couple of DU builds. The cameras would take good pictures, but occasionally fc. All in all, it's still very much a work in progress. Best bet for custom rom overall is Jaguar. It's called an LP rom, but it is very up to date with changes, and functions beautifully, camera included. I guess newer builds don't have Xposed support, but the rom is excellent.

I see what you are saying, but MM for the Z1C has been a work in progress since a very long time ago. I'd prefer to stick to CM 12.1 (which works very well) instead of going to another LP ROM. But those MM versions you are mentioning... Where can I find one with a properly working camera? I've been looking around and tried many, with no luck so far.

Try AOSP, AOSPA, and DU from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/z1c-marshmallow-roms-t3372565

Well, I'm afraid I've tried all of them. Paranoid Android is the best, but the camera is unstable (sometimes there is no access), front camera is quite crappy, and the OS in general reboots from time to time.
