I Changed the rotation to 0 90 180 270 seems to havwe no effect we going to have to find a way to fool the MPL sensor and use the phone upside down to take pictures however i got it todo a raw image dump in .yuv formart. you can play with the settings open terminal type su then camera_test f there you can override default settings in ArcCamera.apk i saw something about Forced Landscape orientation if that
Progress?

The Jpeg Compression Can be manually set in the APK i managed to get the UI From Rotating but preview still rotates if the orientaion Sensor can be disabled the camera might be usable till then CameraPro Works fine if not better Minus the 3D part Plus you can Set Bitrate Frame Rate audio channels etc tried 60fps and 40k bitrate but it was in low light will try again see if it works im sure camera.omap4.so can be compiled from source

Can you upload camera.omap4.so from SU870/P940?
I tried add these lines to build.prop.
accelerometer.hwrotation=270

but it effects only for whole screen.

Ask that use called 2old4toys for camera.omap4.so i don't have su870 and also for ducati-m3.bin
In GB i swapped base_image_app_m3.xem3 with the one from SU760 it also gave me upside down view so the prob is there if we could find a beta for p920 and get that file we would be sorted

To copy file from system folder is not required root, he can do it
He can use Android Commander to copy it directly into pc.
I 'd ask to him:

Yes this app can rotate the camera preview without rotate the app commands!!
Defcomg in this must be the solution!
I think problem is at the communication camera apps with sensor.
Because the "Set Orientation" partially repair that problem.
Solution:
1. Download "Set Orientation" https://play.google.com/store/apps/...eyesfree.setorientation&feature=search_result
2. Run it and set to "Automatic"
3. Run any camera app and turn smartfone upside/down (vol+- on the bottom)
It's ALL!!
Can you do motion sensor calibration?
I don't Is notification "Cannot calibrate. Try again"

As seen in review Redmi note 7 pro comes with camera2api enabled out of the box.
So technically we can get full manual support like
Shutter speed of 30 sec,iso,manual white balance,manual focus and most importantly RAW and DNG support. It does have the the camera hardware and processor to handle this things.
Can you all test apps like Camera -fv,Open camera or Bacon camera to see the device performance:
1:Low light
2:Light trail
3very important and the main reason of this post)
Astrophotography or Milkyway shots
Main task take photo at night pointing at the sky with stars around and take a shoot with this setting
Iso( lowest setting possible)+30 sec or more shutter speed+focus infinity( save the image in JPG and DNG)
AND PLS UPLOAD THE RESULT

Welcome bro, and I added 18 more photos to the album. Dude the camera blows!!! This the most expensive phone I have purchased in my life and I could not be more happy.
In one particular photo on 48 mp, supersampling went wrong and the photo has color bands or spots.

Can u use a tripod or use headphone so that the camera doesn't move
Then go to pro mode and select this setting for stars picture
Point the camera to the sky make sure stars are visible to u
Focus (infinity)+ISO(100-400)+Shutter speed(30 sec)+ white balance auto
THEN TAKE THE PHOTO
NEXT SETTING
Focus (infinity)+ISO(1600-3200)+Shutter speed(30sec)+white balance auto
Now try camerafv 5 or bacon camera it doesn't matter if those app doesn't support the 48 no resulution and take photo with above mentioned setting just take photo in DNG(RAW) formats.
(you can google that and get some idea how will it look or what to expect)

I don't have a tripod but I'll try out what you said. And this camera really captures even the smallest of the details. If you download and zoom in some of these building photos you can even see sunlight reflecting into spaces in the societies parking area. Even the farthest objects can be looked at closed with good details. Very surprised.

Here you go buddy.
It wasn't very dark location and Milky way wasn't up , but you can se the big dipper.
ISO 1600 , Shutter 16s . I tried shutter speed of 32s but stars were trailing at that so used 16s.
I used stock camera on purpose because I wanted to see without any special efforts how is the quality.
And I can say I am impressed.
Straight out of camera image. No modifications whatsoever.
will try milky way in upcoming months.

The stock camera reduces sharpness on human subjects and boosts color to look pleasing to the eye even with beautify, AI mode turned off. So it's better to try some other camera for true experience.
If you want a proper stock, download Gcam and capture picture in RAW format.
A word of caution, the RAW images will look dull because no processing has been done on the images and they will be very large in size. Use Lightroom (Pc and Android Both) to fit it according to your need.
Added one more picture

The photos are awesome!
Can you share the exact camera settings used & whether you used the usual point and shoot mode or used pro mode?
If so the iso and shutter etc settings to get such perfect shots?
Also, were these captured on 48mp mode or default mode.?
Some issues:
My phone is just a week old while I have no issues with anything, whats bothering me is rear/main camera capturing daylight images with a yellow tint.
If I shoot anything indoors using an artificial light like cfl or led bulbs the shots come perfect and real in colors or textures and lighting.
Also, again the Red color seems isnt captured to the perfection. It is either captured as pink or orange.
I hope these are software issues or if the camera lens parses the light more in yellow.
Any expert to comment on this.
Very nice photos by phone

I have tested many of the GCam apps available from the Google Camera Port hub here
The best working one for my Moto G7 Power XT1955-4 is the GCam MOD from the developer arthur.
Test the different settings to choose what is working best for you, especially you can dig in the Advanced settings.
For example you can:
- use the H.265/HEVC format for video;
- get a RAW+JPEG control on your main screen
- get HDR+ (HDR+ and HDR+ enhaced)
- get a Night Sight shortcut for night shooting on the main camera view
- adjust many noise reduction parameters
- change and test the AWB (Default, Pixel 2, Pixel 3)
-change the JPEG quality 90%, 95%, 97% and 100%
- change the HDR+ Enhanced frames: Default=8, Medium=14, High=18, Very high=24
and many more!
You can download the latest version of the GCam back.rider apk from here
Other versions made from other developers can be downloaded from Google Camera Port hub
---
EDIT August 2020:
From some time I'm using GCam modifications made from Parrot043, it was working pretty well with Android 9 before, and now with Adnroid 10 after I upgraded my Moto G7 Power to Q.
Strongly recommend you to test the Parrot043 GCam modification
If you still use Android 9, than you need GCam version 7.0.x
If you are with Android 10, then version 7.3.x or bigger is for your OS
@lubo777 can you please tell me exact settings you have as i dont really have a clue. Just need it for good pictures and portrait mode. Thanks in advance

I recommend to test NOT the latest GCam MOD from back.rider version 1.3a but a bit older version which have better picture details and less noise GCam 2.6a
This was reported on the XDA page of the GCam MOD and I can confirm it.
Bellow are the settings I use: see the attachment.
If you like to install multiple versions of a GCam and test the differences you can do that easy with App Cloner app - for example you can install the latest GCam 1.3a and the older 2.6a and see the difference
Appreciate your help. Thanks mate
So what did anybody figure out? I'm using the latest by Sanity. I can never tell the difference between any of them other than the HDR rendering taking longer or shorter.
Thanks for the advice. Can anyone recommend a way to launch GCam using the default twisting moto-action? It's possible to do once the phone is unlocked, but a locked phone always launches the stock camera app.
I'm also looking for a way to save from GCam to an external sd card. The best way seems to be through using a Tasker (or similar) profile to automate moving photos over, then deleting from inboard storage. There's a GCam Tools app that replicates this behavior, but seems a bit buggy.
Cheers
There is a new version of the GCam MOD GCam_6.2.030_N7P_test1.apk which have the best results according to few tests below ...

Thank you for the detailed testing and posting your photo samples. That's the most thorough I've seen yet. Personally, I feel the NO HDR+ image taken with the GCam-6-2-024-N7-P-test1-3a looked the best. Not by much, but marginally. The G7 Power images seem to have a very shallow dynamic range and the HDR+ photos from each version seems to blow out the highlights (see lower right hand corner grassy area where there is direct sunshine) more than the NO HDR+ samples. I would have expected the opposite, with the HDR photos preserving more shadow detail while taming the highlights, but the blades of grass in the NO HDR+ samples are more clearly defined.
Yesterday I discovered that I have some problems with the Focus on my MOTO G7 Power with the latest version. I don't now if there is such a problem with Nokia 7 Plus camera, probably the problem is Moto camera hardware specific ...
The problem is that in wide scenes (not closeup) in Camera Mode the focus is 100% NOT correct where I have tapped on the screen ...
In Portrait Mode everything is OK with the Focus ... very strange.
On closeup scenes the Focus is much better in Camera and Photo modes, as you can see bellow.
On all pictures the Focus is on the strawberry.
Camera mode NO HDR
Camera mode HDR+
Camera mode HDR+ enchanced
Portrait mode NO HDR+
Portrait mode HDR+
Portrait mode HDR+ enhanced

I have tested A LOT of the different GCAM Mod's and definitely 100% the best one working with all possibilities is the GCAM Mod from arthur
What in this GCAM MOD is especially useful for me:
1. The possibility to save Pictures / Video on external SD Card
2. Back and front Camera possibility to fine tune the "Noise suppression" the "Black level adjustment" and "Saturation"
3. To save Portrait pictures in the same folder with all other folders (by default GCAM saves each Portrait image in a different folder )
4. Burst mode - working perfect!!!
5. Slow motion mode
6. Exposure control features
7. Manual Focus options - especially to have focus slider on the camera screen
8. Zoom Noise suppression
9. Video Bitrate change
10. Developer Settings
In this Mode there is no Night Sight link / menu - you get perfectly working Night Sight feature on the main Camera screen in HDR+ enchanced
Below are few pictures made with this mod at night and day

I'm not using / haven't used the External Card feature, because the Internal SD Card is much faster for Burst pictures / video.
even out of the box with internal setting wont save any picture for me

I have the same problem with that version not being able to save to the SD card. Maybe a permissions issue.
Interestingly, the main features of the app properly display, for me, in English. But, the error message items are in cirillic....
I have found another GCam MOD which have much more Camera Extended settings and is the best working for me.
I'm testing it on my phone for few days and have to say that this GCam MOD have everything I need as a fine tinning functionality.

Hello,
Some of you know the port of GCam made by Zoran, the ZGcam (https://koopahtmaniac.com/). The only partial working version of exynos version.
A few days ago, the person that started GCam port, BSG, released a version with support to exynos processors.
Changelog of the public version from BSG (8.1.101 from 03/10/2021):
- Added support for devices with Exynos processors running Android 10+.
- Fixed problems with add-on modules for Sony devices.
- Fixed all known issues with Google Pixel 4, 4XL, V
- The design has been redesigned (it will still be improved and a description of the settings and translation will be added).
- Added gallery selection by default (you don't need to include anything, everything is automatically enabled).
- Removed depth modules that could not shoot.
- Fixed shortcuts.
- Many minor fixes.

All versions from BSG
I've tested this and the back camera works fine (better with AWB activated). But the front camera doesn't work (maybe they can fix this in the future).
I'm just sharing this. I'm not involved in the development or celsoazevedo's website.
Note: Choose "com.samsung.android.ruler" version. If this doesn't work, try the version "com.samsung.android.scan3d"
A few things:
Frontal camera
Now, the frontal camera wont work out of the box. To make the front camera working:
Open GCam
Swipe down to open the quick settings menu and click in the settings icon
Choose "Modules"
Choose Front (0.9)
Swipe down until you see "ViewFinder Format". Change from JPEG to YUV
Go back and do the same for the Front (1.0)
Now, you can take pictures with the frontal cameras. Note that I couldn't make both lens working, only one (even you see the button to switch to the other camera, for me doesn't work).
Telephoto or ultra wide lens
By default, you can use only 2 cameras. But S10+ have 3.
To use the telephoto or ultra wide lens:
Open GCam
Swipe down to open the quick settings menu and click in the settings icon
Choose "Module"
You should see 3 entries for "Back". Each have the "zoom value"
Back (0.5) -> ultra wide
Back (1.0) -> main
Back (1.9) -> telephoto
Now you should choose the lens you don't want. Click on the lens you don't want, scroll down and choose "Disable this lens". For example: You want ultra wide and main cameras. So you would disable the telephoto lens. If you want telephoto, you need to disable ultra wide. You only have 2 options on the viewfinder, you need to trick the camera to think you only have 2 lens, so that the correct lens appear.
Other settings:
Settings -> Global: -> JPEG Compression to 98% or even 100%
This will increase the photo quality
Settings -> Advanced -> Control HDR+
Then go to the viewfinder, swipe down and choose HDR+ with a little symbol in the circle (button in the right). Each photo will take longer to take, but you will have more quality
Settings -> Gobal: -> Focus Tracking (Photo)
Click in a subject and it will keep that subject in focus, even if you move the camera
Share your experience with this new version
Thanks for sharing.
I'm wondering which of the five .apk for version MGC_8.1.101_A9_PV0m is the right one for a Exynos device.

Just gave it a try: As soon as I start the app (*Eng.apk / *Snap.apk) it crashes. So I can't use it.
Running LOS 18.1. without GApps.I think that's the reason even if ZGCam was working all the time and I have fake gcam services provider installed.

The below version worked perfectly on S10 Exynos.
MGC_8.1.101_A9_PV0m_ruler.apk (com.samsung.android.ruler)

As it seems there is an issue with the fake services needed by GCam.
But there's already a workaround as written here.
So we have a solution again if you don't want to use GApps.
Hello, I don't know if that's the only thing for me, but when I use GCam, I have a small image lag.

Thank you.
I was using ZGCam from koopahtmaniac.com and that was working reassonable well. Just now installed this BSG's version: MGC_8.1.101_A9_PV0m_Eng.apk and that is working even better and more fluid. Thank you for pointing that out.
I'm running samsung starlte S9, with Lineageos 18.1 en Nikgapps

I overlooked an issue with front camera. Rarely use that. Front camera is making pink/purple pictures.
Does anyone know how to fix that?
Maybe a cameralib from latest vendor-stock?
Hi, How do you switch to f2.4? Thanks.
New versions are available

Yes, from time to time there are new versions
MGC_8.1.101_A9_GVq_ruler.apk and MGC_8.1.101_A9_GVq_scan3d.apk seem to be working fine on Exynos. Also, the front camera launches, but the capture button doesn't save the picture.
Also, I can't get the wide-angle lens working here by tweaking the mod settings. However, I got the wide-angle lens working in ZGCAM.
Although, this version is actually quite smoother. Hopefully, we will have the front cam working soon

I think there is a beta version that maked the front cam working. We just need to wait a bit more.
I was able to use the wide-angle lens. But I've found a limitation. You either have the wide angle or the telephoto lens. You can't have the hability to choose both when you want.
For an example, I had the 1x option and sliding to the left I have 0.5x. But no 2x.
So, I've gone to the settings and disable the lens 0.5x. Then it appears the 2x lens.
Hope it will be a fix in the future.

Just install the apk. However, I did find that you can only use 2 lens at time. So, you can use the main and telephone lens. If you want the switch the telephone by the wide angle, you need to disable the telephone lens in the settings
But problem is I don't find setting anything related to telephoto lens?
