Does it have the green tint and camera crashing (in apps besides freed) problem that Bobby's mod did?

Nope this is different It uses camera1 api so regular apps work and no camera 2 bug. No reported bugs by the tester so far.

Doesn't work on ROMs from what it seems. I tired it on RR and Orion and resulted in a bootloop

Upload the camera.msm8992.so from those roms if its aosp/ cm based the file might be named camera.vendor or vendor.camera

the only thing i see is a liboemcamera.so . i'll upload it maybe this is it
nothing in my file search is picking up any vendor.camera or camera.vendor
View attachment liboemcamera.so.zip
This is coming from the TURBO ROM btw. idk if there's any difference. sorry im not good at this lol

Sorry the correct path is /system/lib/hw/ try the lib from OP my bad

This is the one that goes to /system/vendor/lib/ this is supposed to increase maximum exposure time in manual mode to 60sec.
Can probably mod it to add 60fps 1080p recording

Works wonders ! thank you

Cool App!

You mean manual iso the one you adjust via slider or the other one to the left of the ui?
For Exposure you mean exposure compensation or manual shutter speed ?.
It should be noted the regular iso does not update via live preview unless zsl is activated why I don't know it's a Qualcomm thing .

Sadly it didn't work on CM. I tried changing both "camera." and "camera.vendor." but neither file took and the camera apps would just show nothing or crash

Daily driver Gcam for whyred!!!

I had installed pixel experience rom on my whyred and was wondering to get fully stable Gcam on it to get complete pixel rom on my whyred,then tried with BSG's gcam but it offers limited features so I turned to find a stable Gcam with almost all features and came across this Gcam mod : MGC_5.3.015_v.1.0.5_Tolyan009.
It can be used as daily driver as it almost fully stable.
What's Working in it.
1.Slow mo.
2.Portrait.
3.Google lens.
4.Video at 1080p 60 fps
<auto focus working with video stabilization>
5.photo sphere.
6.panorama.
Problems with this:
1.lens blur is bit choppy and is advised not to use it.
2.Run and use this as it is with default settings change in settings may results in app blunders.
3.there is 4k uhd option but it's not working.
THIS MOD IS TESTED ONLY ON PIXEL EXPERIENCE ROM.
YOU CAN USE ON MIUI BUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT WORKS.
Download link:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MyJk3LM9oa18UvhB56U_pwV_UVmjdZoE/view?usp=drivesdk

For this to work make Gcam as default camera app.
Everything is working fine in my phone after making it default app and disabling snapdragon camera app.
If it still not works try clearing data and rebooting phone.

Dude I just checked. Selfies are getting flipped after clicking the picture.
Like in stock camera, selfies look like when you are about to click the picture.
But one problem I found in all gcam apps is after clicking the picture, selfies don't look like just before clicking. They are flipped sideways.

On lineage front camera works

I just tried this with the new RR 7 (RR-P-v7.0.0-20190203-whyred-Official) and it works fine.
⌐At first the images were monochrome for some reason, switched config HDR+ to pixel 1 and the images came out normal and with HDR+. Turning it back to pixel 2 after a while
and magically nothing changed. Images were still in color.
⌐There are a few random bugs like the ones in OP and some others like there being 2 lens blur mode options.

Which one GCam is the best for now for One Plus 6?

I'm not happy with stock camera so i think about install GCam but i don't know which version is the best for OP6. I have OOS v.9.0.5 if it's important.

I recommend the Version from Arnova's Advanced 1.5 (stable)

How I change the config to op6 and where I can fin it? I just install the apk

I'm still looking for the most stable for OP6. BTW Arnovas 1.5 and even 2.0 are buggy. But the Urnyx05 v4.5 is most stable for me so far, based on Gcam 6.1 which doesn't have time lapse in it. The new version of Urnyx05 based on Arnovas build works for timelapse but is buggy with potrait and photobooth.

Quick update, i just installed the latest Arnova V2.2 based on GCam 6.2, it's working like a charm, and has the Time Lapse feature, Dark Mode, ect.
No config needed. Just remember to uninstall the previous version first, it caused crashes for me when i just installed this without removing the old version.

I compared both several times, not being a pro either, seems to me that GCam is closer to reality in term of colors. But well, on Lineage there is no OOS cam to compare to, so i can't add anything to your observation

Is there a way to disable the Info window when you start the app? Thanks!

Version Arnova's 6.2.030 v2.2: Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_V2.2.190716.1800-Final

[Share] Stable gcams v6.2.030 with tips

Hi guys,
Here I'm sharing the most stable gcams after testing the new releases, which works in our mido (it depends on the sensor your phone is shipped with). All credit goes to the respective devs.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam-6.2.030_Arnova8G2_Urnyx05-v1.6.apk
Or
Try this from telegram channel(no external link available). It's working well and currently i'm on it.
https://t.me/rn4photography/107355
Everything works including rear portrait, night sight, time lapse but except slow motion as usual. If you want slow motion, use the attached oneplus cam, install as normal apk, go to settings give all permission & open, it should work.
P.S. - I tried only on pie roms.
Lag & fc fix:-
Use per app profile in kernel manager (fk kernel manager recommended) & create a profile with cpu & gpu governors in performance setting, save & apply for gcam app. Remember the more option you switch on it needs more ram & processing of pics takes more time, toggle only the options that are worth in settings.
I haven't faced any green tint issue, it depends on the sensor your phone has, if you face any, try this method or switch to some other builds.
Green fix in front camera:-
Go to settings
Enable hdr+ controls
Switch to front camera
Turn off hdr+ mode
Done.
Versions of 6.2.030 come to an end. Devs started working on 6.3
Hit thanks if it helped.

Hi guys,
Here's the working version of latest gcam with no lag or fc (at least i haven't faced). I tried lot of latest version gcams but only this one worked nice & smooth for me, so i thought of sharing it along with the settings i use. All credit goes to the respective devs.

Everything works including rear portrait, night sight, time lapse but except slow motion as usual. I use oneplus camera in side for slow motion, working like charm. Lemme know if you need that apk.
P.S. I tried only on pie roms. I recommend not to use any magisk module related to cam like fps fix, cam booster, etc (except camera2api enabler).
Lag fix:-
Use per app profile in kernel manager (fk kernel manager recommended) & create a profile with cpu & gpu governors in performance setting, save & apply for gcam app.
Attached are my settings(mostly default except few) & w/wo night sight. You can try various libs as well, need to be connected to internet to download those inside the app, i use google stock libs here, you can experiment with others.

Yes i mentioned already fc's happen in these builds with lens blur & sometimes while processing night mode. If you really need lens blur then wait for future builds, for stability use the first one (almost no fc's like i said)?

Try the second one, that's telegram link. I'm currently on that and it works well.

Hello everyone, I recently installed AOSP Extended(Android P)on my Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon with Samsung Sensor but I'm having trouble with GCAM. I tried the the GCAM build by Urnyx05 mentioned at the first post of this thread as well as many other builds by Arnova8G2 but although somehow stable they still face some issues. I have trouble with video capture, slow motion, taking HDR photos when zooming in, etc.
Which GCAM from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/ would you recommend for me to install that is stable and almost all functions working for Samsung sensor (and if possible is somewhat a recent version)??
Also, is there any gcam build that supports manual shutter?

Which Gcam will be best for me?

Google Camera 7.2 Astrophotography For Realme X2

I making this thread for Realme X2 Gcam 7+ because the settings and tweaking are a bit different from the the 6.2 and 6.3 Here
This is to avoid confusion as I won't have time to do tweaks on both 6+ and 7+ so, that it.
After trying over 25 different Gcam ports, I finally got a Gcam 7.2 that works for Realme X2 but you have to tweak the settings like I did to get the best.
The full tutorial is on YouTube Here:
I will drop some camera samples and the screenshot of my settings here incase you don't have time to watch the tutorial.
While you are there, you can also watch Adobe photoshot camera for Realme X2 too. I was surprised it worked fine.
It blew away the stock cam in Night sight there is no need to talk about the Astrophotography and I didn't bother uploading the samples comparisons between Night scape and Astrophotography - it's not a fair fight. But you can see it in the video.
Low noise, more details, close to real life color reproduction, and ability to tweak makes this 7.2 a thing of joy.
Still no 4k video but 1080p 30/60fps works fine.
No slow motion and wide angle lens too.
Apart from these, everyother thing works fine.
Great credits to @Urnyx05 who ported the camera for ( several devices) of which realme-x2 isn't one of.
I added a new seperate Youtube video tutorial Mastering Gcam v7.2 Advanced Settings for Realme X2
So you can watch that if you want to get the best images from your Gcam.

I am adding the direct link of the of the Gcam 7.2 by Unryx05 I used to be sure some people don't download the wrong one and have other issues I didn't experience. As I said in the video, I've tested over 25 different Gcam ports so make sure you are using the exact one I am using so as to Easy replicate the issues you are experiencing with my device. And talking about devices mine is Realme X2 EU Version (8/128G) RMX1993.

Turn off motion pictures and make sure your
Google photos is up to date.
Clearing app data might help.
Also let me know what operation you carry out before it crashes.

Hmmm Curious, when I toggle on, enable 2nd and 3rd lenses, I cant even open the app. I have to reinstall.

Added additional screenshots of my settings and tweaks. When I am less busy I'll write the full details here but until then, you can watch the video tutorial for now.

Interesting......
I grabbed the lastest from celsoazevedo, and I was using the latest Urnyx: Urnyx05: GCam_7.2.010_Urnyx05-v1.5.apk
but yours is v1.4.
v1.4 works.
I wonder what the small change is....(rhetorical)

I making this thread for Realme X2 Gcam 7+ because the settings and tweaking are a bit different from the the 6.2 and 6.3 Here
This is to avoid confusion as I won't have time to do tweaks on both 6+ and 7+ so, that it.
After trying over 25 different Gcam ports, I finally got a Gcam 7.2 that works for Realme X2 but you have to tweak the settings like I did to get the best.
The full tutorial is on YouTube Here:
I will drop some camera samples and the screenshot of my settings here incase you don't have time to watch the tutorial.
While you are there, you can also watch Adobe photoshot camera for Realme X2 too. I was surprised it worked fine.
It blew away the stock cam in Night sight there is no need to talk about the Astrophotography and I didn't bother uploading the samples comparisons between Night scape and Astrophotography - it's not a fair fight. But you can see it in the video.
Low noise, more details, close to real life color reproduction, and ability to tweak makes this 7.2 a thing of joy.
Still no 4k video but 1080p 30/60fps works fine.
No slow motion and wide angle lens too.
Apart from these, everyother thing works fine.
Great credits to @Urnyx05 who ported the camera for ( several devices) of which realme-x2 isn't one of.
You can download it Here from the thread. Version 7.2. 010 was the one I tested.

Hi, thank you so much for the detailed guide and feedback, I'm waiting/looking for a version with slow motion and wide lens working, but still had no success. Please let we know if you find something.:fingers-crossed:

For those who are looking for a working Gcam, I am working on one with the great devs for Gcam including Urnyx05. The problem with Realme and BBK devices are they do not have correct color for gcam to process. Arnova helped greatly to fix it, and Cstark's apk works somewhat now. Also we will never be able to access the ultrawide lens or any other lens as Realme did not grant camera2 ID or access to them. Potentially root could work, but I am rooted but nothing works. We really need a kernel dev for our devices.

Hmmm Curious, when I toggle on, enable 2nd and 3rd lenses, I cant even open the app. I have to reinstall.

I said earlier that the secondary lenses don't work and will make the camera crash.
Just clear app data to use the camera again - it's quicker than reinstalling but you will lose your settings

Interesting......
I grabbed the lastest from celsoazevedo, and I was using the latest Urnyx: Urnyx05: GCam_7.2.010_Urnyx05-v1.5.apk
but yours is v1.4.
v1.4 works.
I wonder what the small change is....(rhetorical)
still cant get the wide angle to work. But i found out by clearing cache I dont have to reinstall it....

It took a lot of testing and trying with plenty crashes and issues to come up with the v1. 4 as the best for Realme X2 for now. I am still trying and testing more especially for wide angle...

I almost gave up on Gcam because of that 'annoying' color processing from realme. But once I learnt to tweak it, I got a higher saturation with Gcam more than the stock cam, I knew that the Realme X2 has a great future with custom Roms. We just have to wait at least for Indian lunch on 17th Dec and maybe the customization will bloom.

I did a full tutorial on how to tweak Gcam 7.2 Mastering Realme X2 Gcam 7.2 advanced Settings
I believe this will help everyone get the best pictures from their Gcam.
Please make sure you download from the link or if you are downloading from Urnyx05 thread download version 1.4 of Gcam 7.2
