Hey ciao. How do I get logs? I can't find any info.
Do I have to do that by adb logcat? I'm a total noob when it comes to android stuff.

You could use adb, yes, or apps such Catlog (start recording, perform the action you want to take logs of, stop recording and save the logcat)

This is for Le max 2 on Slim7 ROM 7.1.2, the focus is not very good and does not like focusing on small or close objects that much, also using your latest Gcam only the back portrait mode only works with people and the front portrait is green and not usable, motion photos does not work and when triggered crashes the app. When using HDR there is sometimes red dots (this mostly happens in dark conditions). Thanks for your work.

Odd, your settings just give me black screen. And none of the settings in this BSG mod give me actual HDR+. GCMod5 works well though.

Oh, could be the device model and modem? I am on the Indian model x821 and using the 19s modem. Was previously using the 26s modem which did result in camera fc, so I switched back to 19s (the default modem for my device)
Also I did have the black viewport problem until I cleared the app data from settings.

Tried the last thing. By working front portrait you meant the background blur effect?

I have tried several settings using GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.2.apk and:
- app stops when switch to front camera
- if not crash immediately, app stops when I tap to take a photo
- only with HDR totally disabled camera shots a photo but it is BW with some stripes
Any suggestions?

I'm using this one https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/GCamera_Mod_v.5.1.23_R5Plus_fix_crash.apk
So far so good. I like the personalization menu of this one better than the Arnova one.
Didn't test it thoroughly, but in both versions portrait camera works and so does slow motion (this two were the most reported bugs I saw).
Anyone trying diferent versions, let us know so we can compare.

Works perfectly with Camera2 API Enabler by P1N20.
Thanks a lot for sharing ! With HDR on quality seems better !
And Google panorama feature is a must

Thanks for this guide.
I'm currently using Arnova's v8.3b1 Google Cam, and I also noticed that sometimes after taking a picture it takes forever to process HDR images. The front cam with HDR on force closes when you take a picture as well.

It's working for me. But if it's not working, I suggest (,reinstalling or,) trying the one it's based on (check my previous post). And if still buggy, try others posted here. Or go for the arnova ones. They act like regular apps, so you can try and try.
Also, I've noticed they treat the colors in a diferent way. If anyone with time wants to compare the actual pictures, it'll be nice

Could someone that has followed this guide and enabled camera2 API download this app from play store. Camera2 probe https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.weis.camera2probe
And post your screenshot please
I have not enable camera2 API yet and was curious if that physically changes the hardware level support.
Thanks in advance

For the front cam, the flash thingy (white screen of death) causes a crash. Disabling it will let you have a front cam that doesnt take pictures lol

@adriakus thanks for the report bruh. Tried the one you shared and front cam works! Updated the post for others. Thanks man!

@fake__knv Thx for the credit! I'll keep trying other versions from now and then and I'll post them here if I find any differences.

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.

You can find it on the same page as the APK ! Create folder like this : /GCAM/Configs, place it there, and in the app double tap where I marked in the screenshot !

Thank you for the explanation mate.

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.

Got better photos then my previous gcam, but still at day light photos seems to me the stock is still best...
But I'm not a pro at analising that kind of stuff

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.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/MGC_6.2.030_B-S-G-based_v.0.2_TlnNeun.apk
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)?
Edit:-
Try the second one in the my first post, added after testing but no photobooth, all are working(ofc except slow motion) and i haven't faced any fc's so far. Try for yourself n lemme know.

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?

I believe I found a perfect GCAM 6.2.30 for RN4X

Change back cam setting to Pixel 2XL for Night Mode works better (without green tint)

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.

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.

Rom - Pixel Experience Android Pie (latest 20190823 build)
Kernel - EnglezOs r23
Device - Mido 4GB/64GB Variant
Which Gcam will be best for me?

Fully Working GCAM for Z2 FORCE (5.1)

I finally found a GCAM port that doesn't crash!
HDR+ works perfectly
Portrait works
Lens blue works
Panorama works
Photo sphere works
Slo mo works
And video doesn't crash when in Nexus 6 auto for HDR+
Make sure you set front cam config to Nexus 6p and back cam to pixel II
Black level offset should be 16.90
Set the fixed black level Offset values to this IN ORDER to fix the green tint in low light:
64
64.20
64.20
63.80
Note: I did not make this, I just wanted to share it with you.

Hi, maybe someone could interest, I have finally found a Google camera (latest pixel 4 version) that's working fine on our device, not deeply tested but at the moment only the front flash is not activated.:fingers-crossed:

Which one? There are plenty of options on that page.

The 7.0.009 full version v8. Stock, as downloaded, it's working like a charm for me. I have changed only some personal options. I checked the link and I can't find it anymore, try this
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/PMGC_7.0.009_Full_Version_v8.apk

Anyone knows a working gcam with non-green front camera + night sight for Oreo?
I must have tried more than 10 versions without success.

I have been using PMGC_7.2.014_Relesed_V1.apk and its working greatly with back and front cam till now. I haven't tested video and astrophotography. Shall test it and post the review here soon.
Link for this version is below,

Thanks but that's for Pie, I'm on Oreo.
I don't think a proper Oreo with night sight and working front cam exist for Z2 force but it's ok. Using gcam only for night sight.
Pie working well for your phone mate?

Yes Pie update is working flawlessly for me till now. Have you not received the Pie update or have not updated to it? As I have Moto Z2 Force Verizon Edition and it received Pie update OTA.

On my Sprint Z2 Force updated to Pie (RetIn/Sprint hybrid), I can't get this version to work. I open the Gcam app and it immediately crashes with a "close" popup.

Worked OK for a few shots, then decided it was going to hang whenever I picked NightSite.
But do any of the 7.* Gcam ports work on the Z2 Force (Pie) without crashing? I tried one or two that could take a pic or two before they permanently went into auto-crash mode when I opened them.
Are there settings I need to set for the ports to work?

You might clear the cache and storage for the default and Gcam, then disable stock cam and try Gcam again. It can be finicky to setup.
Alternatively, this cam worked good for me. Burst mode worked great but no night site. So pick your poison. GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3b1.apk

I'm using this on Pie : PMGC_7.2.014_Relesed_V1.apk
No problems except of crashing in Video mode but you can capture videos from the photo mode while pressing down for 2sec the shooting button.
If there is another working version of Gcam as well, let us know.
I have also to notice that the Night Site seems very vivid as regards the colours, is this right?

This is the latest working (Night Sight, Portrait, etc) GCam for this phone (running Android v10) that I could find:
- https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog704/
I am running LineageOS v17.1, and this seems to work great.
