Gcam hdr+ mod - Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-0UOfPty_9XMkJ6ZWZpZmVudlU/view?usp=drivesdk
This version is worcking at sony xz premium, but i'm not impressed..

This is a start. It wasn't working at all. Still video crashes and if I tweak the settings then it crashes again.
If only Sony gives full manual control with RAW shooting. I think Sony Mobile should come hard on camera software cause everyone's doing it right except Sony.

I found it at 4pda forum, this is russian forum. There is many versions, but only this is worcking

It works because it is set as "No HDR+" in the settings and in the "Limited" mode for the new camera API instead of "Full". We can use the camera, but not the HDR+ it seems (unless one of those many HDR+ options works).

Manual Camera Controls in Nougat?

Is there any info,do we get new camera in Nougat,like a XZ and XP with full manual controls?
while it is mentioned in the latest video posted by sony xperia team, i don't really think it is going to be included for z5 (although our devices are equipped with the same sensor). At least, there's no announcement or indication that it is going to be included.

I saw that video and anouncement on Sony global and I am afraid that you in right.We can only hope so that wouldnt be like this cause same camera sensor,but I thinks that chances is minimal.
Why we get a bunch of threads like this -__-

Why would you think it is not going to be included? Based on what?
We don't know. Chances are no one will know. But so far other devices that got the update also got these features. There are no reason to think they're not going to be included.

They must to prolong X series shipment.For that reason I am afraid we wont get that.Even if we dont get that its not a huge de except for low light/night photos.These option that we have now is enough for good daylight photography(exposure,ISO,focus mode,WB)
as much as i want it, yea, it is not provided in the nougat update
Already got the manual controls on the z5 https://youtu.be/UQjl-qamO9g no need to get them from sony lol

Camera won't focus anymore after unlocked bootloader

Well, my z3 6653 camera won't focus anymore. I tried the drm restoration patch and actually works, restores everything except the tap to focus function.
Any advices or tutorials to fix the issue?
Thanks a lot.
Same here with d6653.
The front camera works fine though.
Haven't found a solution anywhere for it...
And seems like there isnt one.

XZP camera has serious distortion issue

Just received XZP from SONY store, Out for a small trip today ,take pictures for family, all the pictures are distorted, only the head in the middle is slightly normal, but the body still twisted.
See attachment photos the head around the lens surrounding site all the irregular distorted .
this is not a simple wide-angle distortion but a rare irregular distortion.Try to shoot real person in different angles, the problem will be more serious then the attachment screen take photos , you simply can not choose one normal photos
Is this issue can fix by the update ???
XZS forum are the same problems have been 2 months still no fix !
Now seems the whold world xzp is the same problem, the flat shooting distortion is not the main problem, just for your reference .The main problem is the three-dimensional scene, when shooting three-dimensional scene will enhance the perspective several times, seriously beyond the reach of the human eye perceived acceptance , also seriously beyond the distortion of other mobile phones,The closer result you get will distortion more, No matter how you compose, how to adjust the distance and shooting angle,As long as leaving the center little center area, all will be serious distortion,again seriously beyond the distortion of other mobile phones!see carefully all the picture in all pages from different users , Portrait photography and flat grid shooting.
see photo and specific in this link :

In sony mobile forum this post was deleted by Moderator for unbelievable reason when more people go to feedback problems ,After a lot of user protest why del the post , now they restore,but the main text and the first page have been modified and remove, also lot's users reply has been edited or delete by moderator, I repost in Message page 2. (link page)Take a closer look at the pics in page 2,4,15,18 ,especially portrait and real life photos ,that is the issue you can not avoid from your XZP camera ,whether you adjust any angle, distance,composition,height. ( not here ,see the link page)
Have Sony replied to you yet? It seems many users are experiencing this issue? It may be a early teething issue but it doesn't help that Sony haven't acknowledged this.
I'll be honest, I rarely, if at all, see people in this forum satisfied with Sony camera. I use a camera to take pictures and rely on my phone for calls, text, web etc.

Faulty unit maybe? Did you try another unit or try to change it with Sony?
Yeah, I am guessing faulty unit. I've seen like 7-10 reviews, and not one of those cameras has any issues from what I can tell. First thing I'll be doing when I get mine is snapping some shots to see if it's an issue with mine.
I am one from tieba and have seen the discussions of distortion here. It's ture to believe how sony could rarely make this ****ing mistake! It disappoint me at all. The time for dafa sparing no effort to resolve...

I took it to mean faulty device. Maybe the camera is mounted incorrectly or something. I would have it replaced by Sony.
Can anyone tell us what is the Camera app version in XZ Premium? (can be seen under Settings-->Apps-->Camera) I'm just curious.

What I meant get the phone replaced and see and when you're getting replaced do your testing and see if the distortion still persists. If it does that means something is wrong with the glass they're using and Sony should be aware of this matter.
And yes you can try a different camera app from play store to see if this is a software issue.

Precisely for all we know OP may just have a faulty phone. Until they get another & see if that's the same.
Is it a dual sim or single sim phone?

Google Camera Port Optimal Settings

As many have heard or experienced, the stock Razer camera sucks. The Google Camera Port is awesome but does anyone know the optimal setting for the Razer phone? Those options are complex and I have no idea about really any of them.

I haven't tried that TBH. I just use the internal storage.
Here you go
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/....20_7.0H_C2API_v.4.0_AllinOne_Full_Manual.apk
That apk based off google camera 4.4 modified by B-S-G .
I had issues with recent 5.x update so do recomend just stick with 4.4
does it make any difference at all between the stock and this google camera?
it's the only thing keeping me from buying this awesome phone , that is the camera of course.
cheers !

Hey guys, I installed the Pixel camera app and immediately I noticed an improvement. The Razer camera seems to have a lag to it when moving it to different objects to take a photo. The Google app eliminated that. It's very smooth. Also, I noticed using the Google apk the photos don't look as grainy.
I can't wait for Razer to make improvements to the camera. It has potential. I will continue to experiment with this Google apk.

Hey guys, here's that link to the video comparison if you want to see it.
Google pixel camera apk on Razer phone.
Proves Razer's camera has potential!
The video compares the camera of the Pixel 2 XL to the camera of the Razer.
The video does not show the Razer phone using two different apps.

My friend, watch it again. He specifically says it's the Razer phone using the Pixel 2 XL ported camera app.
I think I actually prefer razer cam, the colour have a better depth and overall contrast - still dreaming of root and camera2 api for RAW capability, this phone will be a dream when that day comes!

When the lumia 1520 came out it was so horrible I stopped using the camera. Took a few months but they fixed the app, camera is still amazing even with the new phones coming out.
This is one area they're focusing on, they remarked they wanted to at least get basic functionality down, which you have to give them props on, Jan-Nov and they get a concept to market, and it doesn't suck. lol
Coming from years of Sony phones I have to say this is quite the piece of kit. Thoroughly enjoying audio and video. The camera is quite bad but I can wait for a fix.
Cool, right off the bat I can take pictures of text on my monitor without it going fuzzy like the pre-update camera app. Anyone care to try post-update razer camera app to take a pic of a website on their monitor? Does it go fuzzy?
i need the pixel camera to save to external sd card - is there a modded apk which offers this option?
obviously the reason it doesnt have that option off the bat is because the pixel does not have a micro sd slot

It should prompt you that's weird.
Anyway try launching the camera via the lockscreen see if that prompts you to change the default

Is there any GCMod with motion photo for OnePlus6 now?

I have tried many APKs at https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/#apk195 and some others for OnePlus5/5T.
They are not working.
Anyone have a solution for this problem?
THX.
Also didn't manage to find a working app that gives the same quality like I had with gcmod5 on OP3 before yet
MGC_5.2.022 yields pretty good results for me.
Gcam doesn't work properly with SD845 yet.

When will we get this feature.
Does MGC_5.2.022 have dots on photos?
m really confused, wheather should i go ahead and buy op6 or should i wait for improved op6t !!
at oneplus experience store, i clicked a lot of pics, but certainly i am not satisfied with the quality which we used to get in op3t !! with a gcam mod. It just blows away. M using IP7 as a spare phone and camera is pretty good, m not a iphone guy. hopefully someone find out to make camera better. specifically, portrait mode ported from google pixel 2 ! fingers crossed.
Any version of Gcam I tried doesn't work on the 6. HDR+ seems to be nonfunctional. Maybe it really just isn't compatible with the SD845

It is not working.
After selecting model. either Pixel or Nexus and restart the app, it pops up with error.
If you do not select any model, HDR just don't running.

With SD 845 doesn't work HDR+; so it's usefuy, for now.
I got Urikills version of gcam to process the HDR+-shot twice. After that, no go. Tried to reproduce but cant make it happen. Settings were Pixel / Nexus 6 auto hdr+ / super fine.
Just saying that there is hope.
