Modded Camera app - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

So I was disappointed to find out the camera has the same limitations on video as previous phones such as 10 minute limit and certain functions being disabled. I've tried other 3rd party camera apps but they don't seem to fully support the S8. Certain things like 60fps in 1080p don't even show up in the ones I've tried. It's probably too early yet to ask for a modded camera apk, but I hope we get one soon.

I'm upset that as far as I know the camera app won't shoot in automode in RAW.
It's a pain if you want to take a quick photo in RAW.

That's a bummer hey. But i do know if you go into pro mode and set everything in pro mode to auto ... ( yes you can do that ) .
Then just have to open camera and enter pro mode and take a pic.
Also one work around is just add pro mode to your home screen .
Obviously have to unlock your device and click on that icon then ( so will take the same amount of time if you just switched to pro mode in the camera app.)

Will check it out. Ta.

Google Camera Port

I'm hoping this is the correct forum...
I downloaded the Google Camera Port from XDA, and I was wondering if anyone knew what the best settings were for the HTC U11+?
Support level override
Supported HW back camera
Buffer size
Etc...
Cheers
i used gapps camera apk,but i crashed when using the slow motion.
anyone had an idea to fix the issue.thanks.

Same here actually, thanks!!!- I hadn't used slow motion yet
I'll see if I can find a fix and let you know if I do
new version have portrait mode
hope u11+ can have a port :angel::highfive:
https://www.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-portrait-mode-port-non-google-android-oreo/
Scroll down after reading and click non pixel devices. Download and install. Slow mo doesn't work I believe.
For some reason I can't see the pictures that the app takes.. All it shows in the bottom right is a black circle.
Use Arnova's 1.3 version (marked with red text and bold) from today on U11+ from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
I am using the front camera HDR+ version and it has portrait mode as well, which works great for rear camera but not so good with front camera. Front camera with HDR+ is way better than the front camera of stock HTC app. So, its my daily driver now except for the slow-mo mode.
Thanks, I have downloaded this, and will check back in after testing
It seems v1.3 is no longer in red and bold, it's stable now (unless I've got the wrong one.... first in the list?)
thanks, at least the arnova verison seems to work! however, can't really see much of a difference between portrait mode and normal mode?
Portrait mode works a treat for me
I think you have to be fairly close, 2- 3 feet or so
Also, after taking the shot, it shows you a before and after portrait effect. Maybe you're seeing the before effect. At the bottom of the photo review screen the are two thumbnails, you can switch between to show before and after

Working Pixel cam with HDR+ and standalone portrait on s8 (exynos-nougat)

This is not my work. I'm only providing links of others work, and hope someone can develop the app further for s8.
This is the version I found that has working front and back camera included tap to focus.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620768293
(Please click on the uploader "Kisakuku" for other apk's)
One Working Settings( there are several):
Modelixel 2xl
Config cam: Nexus 6 hdr+
Hdr+ parameter: High

https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/themes/app-collection-camera-modded-t3591177
My findings: Great detail( good for portraits), preserves highlights, some more noise, pinkish/purple edges in very low light, some halo/rainbow effect in some pics, fast shutter (great for capturing movement out and indoor).
Update1. Portrait
Working Portrait mode for back camera only. In this version tap to focus i slow.
Tip for the full experience is installing this version with AppCloner app (change name to portrait) and have both versions installed at the same time. Use this version just for Portrait mode.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75118407&postcount=252
(settings: see added pics.)
Is the the latest version of Google cam or the old version of Google cam?
Yes, One of the latest working cam on s8. You could try newer versions ( se "Kisakuku" s other uploads and see if it works). There seem to be small difference in photo quality among different versions.
Thanks
There is a newer versione with portrait mode. but here on my G950F don't works. Hope to get it very soon. Probably it's working for snapdragon version.. hope we will get on exynos too!! https://www.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-portrait-mode-port-non-google-android-oreo/
Try this mod with your setting. I worked very well but very slow when i took the picture. Due of the hdr + is this normal ? Sometimes the image is freezing or black for few second.
Yes,hoping for a working portrait mode. Also that some of the other issues mentioned get fixed.
The app isnt perfect but I'm thrilled it works so well on an non pixel/snapdragon phone. One downside is the processing time and shutter lag. That isnt the same as slow capturing the moment. The shutter is fast when taking picture and freeze movement more often than on stock. The pics for me turns out great. Even better results than the same app on s7 (installed on my girfriend's phone). Both picture quality and the image stabilization function. I now even use this app more than native S8 camera.
A tip is to install BxActions and use doublepress on the bixby button to open the camera.
Yep i wanna try some shoots someday for comparisons.
Honestly i don't even know we can capable working hdr + on exynos.
So thanks for this ?

Can confirm Portrait mode is working on the Oreo Beta on rear cam only (based on the settings in your attachment). The results I have to say are brilliant. Not sharing any pictures of my ugly mug with you all though haha!
But why works only with faces?
R U kidding me? It´s called Portrait Mode and a Portrait ist per definition a photo of a humenbeing! Why don´t you use the selective focus from the stock cam for other things you want to shoot?
I instal MiniUser's version of GCam and it work flawlessly on s8+

S7 portrait mode app

Hi Guys,
Which is the best and stable camera app to be used for portrait mode in the S7? And can it be used with the front camera? I tried many but they all crash every now and then.
Thanks
You can use selective focus mode on stock camera app. It produces portrait-like photos (back camera only) but the downside to me is the size. The image will be about 20MB in size but if you edit it again using any photo editor app it will decrease. IMO the stock selective focus mode is better and faster than lens blur on Google Camera.

Yes it is good but like 90% of the times it will say that subject not detected. And the size for me is normal like 4-5mb per photo. Any other modded/ported camera app for the S7 for this purpose? And can it be used with the front camera?
You can check the @miniuser123 version of the Gcam app. I think it's the best (far away) portrait mode for us.
Better than our cam but still don't work the face cam.

Set somethings:
- Don't change the HDR parameters. Set it to default.
- Unmark the "Use Nexus6 HDRPlus Auto"
- Mark "Compress RAW (*.DNG)
- Mark "Portrait Mode in all models"
- Unmark "Smartburst Enable"
The "camera.af.debug.show" and the "camera.faceboxes" are in Settings>Developer Settings. But these are optional.
Hope I helped

This is a problem with the image processing (the heating and the battery drain). Some people says the cause is the app use all cores for processing the image (HDR+ and portrait)
Anyway, there's a new version with front camera working with portrait.

Thanks!! The settings is a bit different but I only changed the model to Nexus 6 and everything is ok. It's still crashed when I switch back to rear camera from front cam while in portrait mode. But portrait mode is still only available on the rear camera, right? Because it's not working on front cam.
Oh right, actually the heating was only a couple times after installing. Now it doesn't heat anymore.

Oh, no. This version that I sent works the rear and front camera in portrait mode. Using without the portrait the front camera is terrible.
And even at portrait, the front camera has a bug with high exposure changing the color to something like pink exposure.
I attached my settings. Remember to close and reopen the app totally for apply.

Changing the model to pixel 2 xl did enable portrait on the selfie but yeah it got some pink on high exposure. But the result was still great. Without portrait the front cam is blurry and the edge was too much sharpened. It's terrible.
Also, is HDR+ enabled by default? There's no HDR+ setting on the top row but there's some sort of delay (like when applying HDR) when I take pictures so I thought it's still there. The photos taken with rear camera is also better now I guess.

Yeah, this version is near to perfect.
I never, anymore, take pics o' people without rear portrait camera -hahaha
The delay is borring but minimal. You can take a lot of pics and check them later. You don't need to wait between the shots.
If you wanna HDR+ setting, go to: settings>advance>check the option: manual HDR+ control (my app isn't in english, but is something like that)
*You can't increase the HDR+ parameters
**Just a obs- my app crashed sometimes at older version (I didn't try the newer properly) and my app didn't take pics. If it happen, just "force stop" and it back.

[GUIDE] Get the most out of X4 Camera [24/06/2019]

WARNING: I'VE TESTED THIS GUIDE ON STOCK FIRMWARE (OREO AND PIE) ONLY
Hey, just a moment before reading: did I help you? Then consider paying me a coffee or anything for my effort of course this isn't mandatory!
UPDATE: the reddit thread is dead! It will now only link to this guide since updating the same guide two times is pretty useless!
This is an expanded guide for all those people which want to reach the maximum camera quality on their X4.
Please note that this post is not intended to give advices on how to get the best shots on GCAM (but you can do it in comment or ask me, no prob!), but on how to get the best working GCAM possible setup! In other words I won't suggest parameters for HDR+ or Saturation, or custom libs etc...
FOA why you should choose Google Camera instead of the Motorola one? Well I think the following shots speak for themselves:
Cropped detail of an HDR shot:
Moto Camera HDR (taken with wide lens)
Google Camera HDR+ (taken with wide lens)
If you'd like to see more examples just look at this HQ album, you'll be amazed by the details.
Another field in which you can really apprecciate the potential of this camera is the selfie and portrait one. I will spare you from looking at my selfies (you can find one in the previous gallery), so just trust me, or do some googling!
What you need to do in order to use the GCAM on your X4 really depends on what you want to achieve:
1) GCAM 6.2.0.30 for normal lens
- Root needed: NO
- Unlocked Bootloader needed: NO
GCAM 6.2.0.30 adds Time-Lapse feature, and you can simply install it and it will run. There's a lot of ports avaiable, my suggestion goes to this one. Please remember that all the rights belong to Arnova, the original developer.
A couple of things must be tuned in order to get the best experience, so head up to the app settings and:
- on "About" check "advanced options"
- on HDR+ Options:
1) Disabled AWBGains Mod -> ON
2) RAW Format -> RAW10
3) Image Format -> YUV_420_888
4) GCAM wb Mode -> ON
Also, I suggest you to check the "Saturation adjustements" section, because this version really oversaturates photos. Try what levels are the best for you, in my case they were 1.0 - 1.0 for back camera and 1.1 - 1.3 for front camera.
2) GCAM 6.2.0.30 for wide lens
- Root needed: NOT NECESSARILY
- Unlocked Bootloader needed: YES
This is the 6.2.0.30 GCamera with Wide Lens support.
The apk is the same one
After the installation you must enter the package name (org.codeaurora.snapcam)inside the followind /system/build.prop lines:
1) vendor.camera.aux.packagelist
2) vendor.camera.aux.packagelist2
3) ro.camera.cfa.packagelist
You can do this either with a privileged file manager (i.e.: Solid) or with adb pull.
Then activate "Enable aux button" in Settings, and a little tree icon will pop up, allowing you to switch lens.
----------------------
FAQ:
Q: What works in these ports?
A: The following features are fully working:
- HDR +
- Portrait
- PhotoSphere
- Night Sight- Panoramic
- Video
- Slow Motion
- Pixel 2/3 AWB
- TimeLapse
- Motion
Q: What about AR?
A: I'm not interested in it and haven't checked, so I can't assure you that it will work
Q: 60fps videos aren't in 60fps?
A: You can shoot in 60fps by disabling video stabilization in Settings, otherwise 60fps videos will drops to nearly 28-30fps.
Q: Why does my selfie looks purple/green/any other ****ty color?
A: In that case just head over Input model in your port settings and change the front camera model (in my case to Nexus 6P with 6.1 and Pixel 3 for 6.2, but just try). This port also have specific fixes for certain titn problems
Q: I can't even start the camera!
A: this can happen on some devices. To fix try the following: long press on the app icon and use the "take a selfie" shortcut. Wait a moment and the camera should work, allowing you to use it in future just by opening it normally. If it is black even via the selfie shortcut long press the switch camera button, it should work. This procedure must he done only one time!
Q: The 6.2 ports gives me some weird greenish/yellowish balance in photos.
A: This is a problem with Pixel AWB. It reduces chromatic shifts to give you more natural photos, but it can ruin other ones. It usually happens when you are pointing an object which has an intense illumination behind it. If your port allows it just disable it, otherwise select from the viewfinder another White Balancement mode (Cloudy works best for my tastes). Pixel 2 AWB should be the best anyway, and I almost never encounter problems.
Q: Can't install the apk
A: Delete the old version before re-installing.

Need root for it, just download any version compatible with wide lens and put the package name on this line inside build.prop:
vendor.camera.aux.packagelist2
Hi there!
Anybody has any idea why gcam (MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V1a_xcam_0.apk) does not want to take any shots without HDR?? I remember gcam 5.1 working fine without HDR and the shutter speed was obvs way faster. So sometimes I want to take a fast shot and gcam 6.1 won't let me. I already tried changing the input model.
Thanks!
UPDATE: for those who want GCAM 6.1 with Night Sight I updated the suggested apk, with one that looks more stable (the old one used to crash rarely on my phone).

With all these camera mods, is there anyway to verify the security of them? I don't think I have ever had problems with an XDA app but these are all hosted offsite.

I don't really check it, cause that's the official repo for the gcam ports, and all the developers (like Arnova etc..) are well known here.

Had to remove the space as well, Night Sight works wonders!
I installed option 2 and the rear cam has a yellowish tint. Is there a fix?
Hi, just tried this out on my new moto x4 (The second one with night sight) and it works pretty smoothly. I was just wondering if there was a way to enable the actual front facing flash for selfies and not just brighten the screen up like it does on default (in the recommended app at least)
ALL i want to do is have the stock camera default to manual mode... Or at least REMAIN in manual mode after I set it to that so I don't have to switch to manual every single time I start the camera app. The Auto settings on the stock camera are GARBAGE compared to my Moto X2 (2nd Gen).
Thanks a ton

Bump. ?Im also curious about Gcam on M.O.V, anybody tried already?
The Play store says it's not compatible.
Maybe there's a way around that.
Not sure what it would add compared to the Motorola one or OpenCamera to be honest (I used it on my Nexus 5 until last week).
I've tried a few modded ones but none of them worked fine so far.
Yeah, i'v tried 3-4 versions for exynos, and no luck. App's starts properly, I see the user interface, but no view from camera, just black screen. May it need some app settings changes?

You don't go to Play Store if you want Gcam on your non-Pixel device.

Yeah, i'v tried 3-4 versions for exynos, and no luck. App's starts properly, I see the user interface, but no view from camera, just black screen. May it need some app settings changes?

Have you tried the gcam for snapdragon? As incredible as it seems it takes some functions, nothing else in night mode or portrait mode, which I tested was one normal if I'm not mistaken
The latest beta version by @Arnova8G2, at the following link, has many features working on Motorola One Vision (not all, though: Night Vision and a few others are not working and device is seen as 12Mpx instead of 48Mpx): https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2-beta/

Did you compare this mod whit stock camera app, is quality better than motocam?
I don't think the two can be compared at this stage. The porting shoots at only 12Mpx and not at full 48Mpx as the stock camera.
Maybe in future releases...

It may be that the gcam doesn't take use of the quad pixel technology like stock cam do, and therefore won't see it as 48mp.
Stock can doesn't actually save the pictures in 48mp but at 12mp (12x4=48) when it's sampled down, but ofc with better details and light.

Tried many mods, none of them worked well, in arnova's I get black pictures, other ones get super overexposed pics
Does the Moto One Vision has camera2api enabled or do we have to manually enable?

It has full camera2 API support by default.

I had this one out around 15 days back - https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_V2.1.190614.0200.apk
Couldn't take a portrait. Couldn't capture 1/8 slow motion vids. Couldn't attempt night sight and photobooth (whatever that is).
But serious question - Do we really need Google camera? By 'we', I mean casual users. Not hardcore shutterbugs.
PS - I didn't try changing settings.

YES we really do need GCam. Try using any other Portrait mode shots with any other camera (flagship or not) and tell me if the processing comes anywhere near as good.
I've tried Gcam on many phones and the quality is consistent enough to justify the need on this device.
Hopefully someone can find a working gcam, or ask the appropriate modders if they can port one for us.
try this : MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-TlnNeun_Urnyx05-v4.3.apk
and use this configs : mackytravel-nightsight.xml
(search from google)
and you can try and find the best correct setting (Exposure compensation,Libs,Adjust saturation,.............)for good quality picture by yourself
(How to use config : Create a folder name Gcam inside that folder create a new folder name Configs and download below’s config and paste it, then open gcam and tap the black area in viewfinder and select this config then restore.)
