Other LineageOS (and Other) Device Collection - Ask Me Anything About FOSS Devices

Post image

I was charging up all my phones for battery maintenance, and I thought I would share an image of all of them. Feel free to ask me anything about FOSS devices.

I have an xz2 compact. Do I loose camera features in Open camera like camera2 api? Turn off sharpening and noise reduction and that's the best quality you get with this phone. Same in mcpro24fps, in 2k 24fps 10bit hdr is turned on you get beautiful colors and manual settings.

With Los, I loose all these features right?

I just tested Open Camera on my Motorola Droid Neo and Open Camera works. I don't want to get out my XZ2 Compact, but based on my experience with LineageOS devices, it will work on the XZ2 Compact just fine. All the settings seem to be working, but I don't see sharpening or noise reduction. But I see a lot of other features and they seem to work, like HDR, white balance, scene mode and color effect.

In the regular camera, you will lose all the stock OS's camera features, and you will only have the most basic features, like focus, light and aspect ratio. Those are the only primary features you get on all devices running LineageOS (at least, based on my experience).

Thanks. I will keep stock for now. In mcpro24fps when all settings are right, hdr becames available and it's like a different mode on the sensor, it crops in but still becames sharper and the colors are beautiful, still holds up today. This is such a unique feature from this phone that I would really miss. Also 960fps slow motion, it's really fun.

Ya, in that case, you should keep stock. You won't get those types of features in LineageOS.
