Any dev can port Pixel 2 camera to Samsung S8? Edit: Camera Link available - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

https://chromloop.com/2017/12/apk-enable-portrait-mode-nexus-5x6p-og-pixel-phone-google-camera-mod/
As google pixel 2 camera is ported to Pixel, 5x and 6p
I wish any dev can port it for Samsung S8 also that would be really great
We dont need secondary camera then for portrait mode and less intelligent selective focus also.
Not My work just sharing in Main post as user don't have to search the entire thread -
Here is a link to the camera mentioned above:
Camera: MGC_5.1.016_7.0+C2API_v.1.3d_AllinOne.apk
Settings:
Model: Pixel 2XL
Config: Nexus 6 HDR+ Auto
HDR+ Parameters: Super High
Final JPG Quality: 100%

I would like a working port of that aswell. The results of the HDR+ port are already amazing.
We could call out a bounty for port-development. I for one would be happy to donate some bucks for a working port.
Talking about the exynos version of course
Edit: A Version with portrait mode is already running on Galaxy Note 8 with oreo beta.... of course it´s snapdragon only

yup first exynos than snapdragon

I Appreciate To see pixel 2 xl camera app on s8 with new vr effect ( i want r2d2 near me )

I wish for that too. I love my S8+ so far, only missing feature is portrait mode. I wonder why Samsung doesn't officially push a software update with software blur added like the Pixel 2. And also I highly doubt any such ports will be made for the Exynos variants, Snapdragon probably.

@Arnova8G2 - Will it be possible to support the Samsung s8 with your mod? I tried Version 1.3 but it didn't seem to work.

Only front camera working in normal camera mode and video mode. Portait mode not working, and back camera only in video mode. S8 exynos.

Portrait mod is working on s8+. its bit buggy right now. Few crashes and stuck.But it worked for some times and the outputs was perfect. Will be looking out for future updates. 2 images will be saved. image with blur and without blur. I am still on nougat.

We have this portrait mode ever since but with a different name and it's called selective focus.. idk why people keeps on whining about the portrait mode..

Not the same. Selective focus is not very good at seperating the background.

I had the same issue. I just tried the GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.3 and it works successfully.
Do give it a shot.
All it does is blur the background..
Didn't work for me - the shutter button doesn't seem to do anything, then the app crashes.
Arnova's GCam V1.4 is out. Working fine for me. Portrait mode needs to be enabled under settings. Will post some photos soon.
Anyone with the most appropriate B-S-G mod settings for Config Camera HDR+ and Model?
Right now I have set it to Pixel 2017 Zsl HDR+ and Model = Pixel 2 with HDR+ parameters = Very high.

Does portrait mode for you on the front camera? It works on the rear, but if I try on the front, it doesn't take a picture and then just force closes.
Just tried the GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.2 file and it worked as expected for both front and rear camera on a U11 DUHL 128 Gb. No special bug and acceptable quality may you find. An effective trick that I like !

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+
potrait mode work on both rear & back camera

Attached is a logcat.

Front camera isnt working at all. App crashes everytime. What do you think are the best settings for good pictures?
What is ZSL ? Do we have to use it with O+5T ?
Sorry for the noob question. I try 1.3 and I like the portrait mode, and I use settings :
Config : Nexux 6 auto
Model : Pixel 2XL
HDR + : High
And it works great even with portrait mode, just hate the white dots...
Front camera does not work, it crash.
Edit : portrait only works on people, not objects, why ? v1.3
Edit : V1.4 I don't have portrait mode, so it's useless for me.

Zsl means zero shutter lag will only work on the configuration that supports it. Pixel 2017 zsl supports zsl and you also have to enable it from the advance setting. In zsl pic is immediately clicked without any shutter delay. It is not mandatory to use in op5t.

As soon as I choose portrait mode the app crashes on Oreo build beta 1 os2 (most recent). The app works if I don't change any settings and just point and shoot but that's no HDR+ or ZSL. I suppose I will experiment. Thanks for all the hard work on the mod. Hopefully we get a working modded camera for the OP5T

Try enabling it from the settings side then close app and reopen. Let us know if that works. Others reporting it working but I'm on OB (hotfix release) and can only use standard camera. Whenever I use her+ and portrait mode it crashes.

Yes I found portrait mode thanks! But if I switch just Once to front camera it crash, and the app can't run anymore, so I have to reinstall it again.
So don't use the front camera. HDR+ and portrait mode (with rear camera) works well.

@Arnova8G2, @azazello22, just tried V1.5Beta2. My logcats are long form, but I'd rather have too much, than miss something, so I couldn't upload them here, so I had to put them on my server.
Switching to front cam, changing no settings, crashes. Sometimes it displays a picture for a split second before it does. Other times it's just a black screen before crashing.

DokatSuya's settings work. However if you aren't on the exact right settings, it's will crash every time. The screen just goes black and the camera crashes.

On v1.5 beta 2 the app crashes after a split second everyone I try to switch to front cam... Is there any fix to take selfies as of now even normal selfies without portrait mode as of now ??

Google Camera APK for Galaxy S9 SM-G9600 (Snapdragon 845)

Hello guys,
Can anyone tell if there is a Google Camera APK that works on the Galaxy S9 SM-G9600 (snapdragon 845 processor)? I looked for all possible sites and found for version with Exynos processor, which worked in Galaxy with snapdragon, except the portrait modes, which left the application with very leg and sometimes crash in the app.
Anyone who has an S9 with snapdragon could indicate some apk that actually works? I do not really like the native app, I think the colors tend to be yellowish and poorly sharp, the google camera application does a much better job.
Thank you.
I wanna latest version for S8 plus Exynos

I found a working one for my Unlocked Snapdragon S9+ today. Go to the site I linked and grab the first One Plus apk. That one worked for me. Be aware that the front camera portrait mode doesn't seem to work. Lens blue does though and produces a similar bokah effect.

Idan's builds works best for me on my Snapdragon S9+ https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-idan/
Give it a try, and if that doesn't work, try one from another dev.

Idan's build crashes on startup for me and the phone reboots. That's why I suggested the build that I did.
My phone is also a Snapdragon S9+.
Just ran the security update that Samsung pushed out and now the IDan build works for me as well. It's confusing that it says it's for Exynos processors, but it's working on Snapdragon.
For me it did not work the apk developed by Idan, I will try the apk made for Oneplus 6. I also did not receive security update from samsung, after that update I will try again the apk of Idan. I have a gakaxy s9 128gb (sm-g9600).

Actually, portrait works, but is live view is very laggy.

- Do not forget to zoom in to see the details of each photo!
- I do not know why, but the angle got more open in the photos taken with the google camera app.
- Portrait dont work for me, much laggy!
I made a comparison to see how the google app is far superior in selfies.
I used the last Idan apk, as it was made for Exynos processors. Portrait mode dont work, just Lens Blur mode.
I did not edit any settings, because the app closed when something changed in the congifurations, but it was possible to make the quality much better if I configured HDR + for Pixel 2 XL, 100% HDR quality, etc ...
See how even in Lens Blur mode, the cut is much better than the Samsung app, the colors are much more natural and the difference in sharpness and contrast is far superior.
The rear camera for me the quality is very similar, gcam has less exposure and a bit more detail while samsung app over exposure and a bit less detail.
I hope someone creates a stable version for the galaxy S9 and S9 + with snapdragon processors .

The portrait mode does work, the live screen is laggy, but as soon as I hit capture, it takes the picture. The crazy part to me is even though I'm on my couch, you can see that it blurs it out. So, it's not trying to emulate a bokah effect as you would get on a high end camera.
(I don't know why the upload came out rotated, it does up correctly in the gallery)

For me the portrait mode does not work, when I click to take the picture the app does not work and sometimes it closes.
Testing some apk by IDan, practically all showed to be the most stable for Galaxy S9 with snapdragon, some could configure everything at maximum.
I think there is little left for these IDan apks to work on the Galaxy S9 with Snapdragon, as overall it's just solving the laggy problem in portrait mode and in some cases it looks like the photos are not saved.
Could someone help please?
Please, if any developers are willing to develop a google camera apk for Galaxy S9 with snapdragon processors, this apk is the most stable:

Using the default configuration (I did not make any changes, I left it the way it was when opening the apk for the first time), Problems I encountered:
1) Portrait mode with a lot of laggy, some report that even with this laggy the pictures are taken, in my case push the button to take photo nothing happens. The lens blur mode works great.
2) The battery is drained with this apk
3) Slow motion does not work.
The rest have been working very well apparently, panoramic mode, sphere mode, lens blur. I had no problems with the HDR +, it worked very well in all modes in this apk.
I think people are looking for this app to take pictures with the front camera, because it is much superior to the native app in S9, especially portrait mode! If someone can solve the problem in portrait mode, it will be a great help!
I tested with a Galaxy S9 128GB (SM-G9600)
Thanks!

I tested this apk by IDan and I thought the best experience so far in my Galaxy S9.
Pixel2Mod V7
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76345648&postcount=78
I put all possible options at most, I realized that the function exposure slow shuter makes some visible difference in the quality of the photos.
The portrait mode works with a lot of laggy, as long as it does not try to focus manually with touch screen, I let app focus alone.
Improved HDR + mode sometimes does not work, but it worked most of the time. I didn'r have problems with HDR+ acitivate.
I don't know if it's normal but the post processing leaves the skin whiter, I wish it would look like the app shows on the screen, but that's an irrelevant problem for now.
The beteria was also drained, I believe it is a consequence of this app, which consumes a lot of battery even, because everyone I tested heard this problem.
I found the best experience for being able to use portrait mode, which was not possible with the app I tested earlier.
my device is an S9 plus snapdragon, and no app can run the HDR +, sad.

Try this apk, I think it will work. The "improved HDR+" may not work if you force the app to close and try again. The portrait works for me pretty laggy, as long as you do not try to focus manually, patiently let the app focus on its own.
You can enable: Auto-exposure mode: Slow shutter / HDR + Super high / JPEG HDR + 100%. Don't forget to force close after enable this settings.
This is the best apk for Galaxy S9 with snapdragon, I hope someone can develop based on this app a stable apk.
State: INACTIVE - GCAM APK
@IDan1109 @Arnova8G2 @cstark27 @SKULSHADY
Is that a problem? I noticed that when I try to use portrait mode, it gets very laggy and it always appears this:
AF Focus: Continuous_Picture State: INACTIVE
roi:? lens: 10.00 sc: false
When I use normal camera modes this does not happen. Appers this:
AF Focus: Continuous_Picture State: PASSIVE_FOCUSED
roi:? lens: 3.70 sc: false
I'm using apk Pixel2Mod V7 by IDan

another mistake I noticed in the version of Idan 3.2.9 was that the photos do not work with Flash

Is not a mistake. IDan does not support s9 or s9+. Don't expect any of these to work right, and we don't need every little issue you find to be reported here. Not until someone actually does a s9/s9+ port is that stuff helpful
miss you s8 kkkkk

friend ... I could not make HDR + work in this app ... only in the newer Idan version, do you have any special settings? I just managed to make this app work by going into selfie mode, changing the settings for Pixel 2017, and putting HDR + quality at 100%
