I took this image with FairPhone 4, running LineageOS 22, using the default camera app. https://obzorje.kompot.si/s/cPaYdRHQf2CG6iL
Tried playing around with some other camera apps from F-Droid, but all of them make pretty much same pixelated mess as the default.
No idea what the reason for this is. Is the camera sensor on phone actually decent, but then some algos in camera app fail to optimise things or something?
No idea, but I am quite often ashamed of sharing pictures with other people.
Luckily I am a kind of person who takes more “utility” type of pictures. Markings on devices and other kind of informative stuff.
If taking pictures of beautiful views and social events was important to me, I would probably not be using FairPhone 4. I would want to use it, but with the current state of camera on de-Googled phone, for artistic purposes, I could not.
I’m not going to replace a whole <insult>ing OS just to get a camera to work. Is deep-level OS tweaking the only way to get the proper image data from the camera sensor?

you could flash e/os and then enable the stock fairphone camera app:
