3-front camera
4-And MIUI default stuffs.
What is not working
1-Slowmotion (May be works with G-cam)
2-May be more you can find.
3-Capturing Normal pictures are headache because of the 2nd camera .( you can avoid this by doing flash always active >then capture>Camera will force close and restart with the primary camera)

1-Don't know it will be good or bad for us Our 2nd camera can capture images with 13mp res. As it is ported from Android One that's why may be.
you can avoid this by doing (turn on flash active >then capture>Camera will force close and restart with the primary camera)
For better experience just capture portrait images with the miui Stock camera and use another camera for rest of the work like G-cam or what ever you like.

Is it able to perform as good as the stock camera of RN5P? I mean the portrait mode (front n back) works fine or not?
I tried the BSGod of Gcam on RR rom. But i finally came to the conclusion that stock camera is the best for this phone. It takes pictures in super sharp quality, Gcam was not working as good as this one. Also the shutter speed was too low in GCam

Let's get something out of the way, MIUI stock camera does not have better image quality than GCam, nor it ever will (at least on this device).
HDR+ on your GCam either didn't work, or you didn't set it up properly, because there are a few settings which have to be changed.

HDR+ worked on my device but it took a lot of time. After clicking the picture took arnd hlf a second at first, and then again a few seconds to process the HDR+.also during videos, there was a lot of issue in exposure and it didn't had time lapse too.Also the selfies taken by miui camera were better as compared to Gcam(i think thats coz it recognises it only as 5mp)
Portrait mode only worked with humans unlike miui camera which worked with anything
That's why i thought miui cam is better. Is there any way to fix it? Note: I tried the BSG mod

Well first of all, my reply was about picture quality of HDR+ vs MIUI HDR(On/Off/Auto) or HHT you name it. In that regard there is no point comparing the two, as computational photography prowess of Google Camera is just ahead in every way.
And as for the other, I don't remember whose GCam I used that had working portrait mode on objects, but it really did work, try out different versions. Even though it's just 5mp, the processing is better, you must have had a malfunctioning app. Also no issues with video exposure here (just missing the 60fps) and the HDR+ processing was a bit slow only in low light).
I am using BSG mod right now, specifically MGC_5.2.022_FINAL_1.0.apk and here are my settings. You can try out Arnova's v7.9.9 I used that one too.

Requirements:
Root. You can check this rooting tutorial guide by @BubuXP.
Camera2 API Enabler by P1N20. Check @otaconremo's thread here.

First, root your phone by following the aforementioned guide.
After rooting, you should have Magisk Manager installed in your phone.
Tap on the hamburger icon (three bars icon on the top left of the screen).

On this version, front and rear camera works fine even with HDR+ ON. Im currently using this one.

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

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.

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

@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.
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).

In case anyone had any trouble editing the build.prop remove the following space:

I realized it while typing, but if you only copy and paste you might not.
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.

You can either do this by an adb pull command (after booting a custom recovery like TWRP) or with a privileged file manager if you're rooted.

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
Hello everyone, I am creating this thread to provide the stable and beta builds of gcam, to avoid confusion and to keep the forums clean.
Thank you @S4turno(Celso) for hosting, mirroring, translating and sharing all a to z Gcam..
Special Thanks to @Arnova8G2 for all his support and hardwork !!!!
FAQ GOOGLE CAM-
I CAN'T INSTALL X VERSION, WHY?
Make sure you uninstall every other GCam Port on your phone. You can't have two 6.1 gcam versions installed.
HOW DO YOU SWITCH BETWEEN CAMERAS?
https://drive.google.com/file/d/127r0_UNKMNY5MN5OrWYZISEleK8cZj4x/view?usp=drivesdk
HOW DO YOU USE NIGHTSIGHT WITH THE DIFFERENT LENS?
Select the lens in main mode, switch to Night Mode, then double tap the Camera Switch Button.
WHY THE FRONT CAMERA IS 4MP AND BACK CAMERA 12MP ?
Selfie camera uses pixel binning, same as for the main sensor. Since camera2api implementation only delivers a 4MP raw stream (16MP/4 = 4MP because of pixel binning)
GCam can only work with what raw stream the API delivers.
Same goes for back cam.
WHICH GCAM IS THE BEST ?
There is no best gcam. There are stable and beta builds which work fine for daily usage, but not the best. There may be some crashes here and there.
WHICH XML IS THE BEST ?
The xmls provided in the folder whose link is given below are the best at the moment.
HOW TO USE XML ?
A link to Celso Azevedo site is given below which clearly explains how to import and export xmls.
Mod Edit: Link removed
WHY COLOURS ARE DULL ??
Sometimes the settings may not be applied by the xmls, and in 6.2 gcam, you need to manually set saturation levels.
Also changing awb can help.
Use the xml.
Use the settings from the given screenshots for 6.2 gcam.
WHY CAMERA CRASHES ?
Changes in libs may cause crashes, in such a case clear app data.
WHY AUX CAMERAS ARE NOT WORKING ?
You need ROOTED DEVICE for now to use aux cameras.
METHODS TO USE AUX CAMERAS- There are 2 methods:-
1) Setting selinux to permissive by-
1a) Using nfs injector magisk module or renovate ice magisk rom.
1b) Using custom kernels like Kirisakura or Smurf
2) Installing gcam as a system app-
2a(Install any of the 6.1 gcam app as a standard user app by installing the apk as you would normally.
2b)Open the camera app and enable the usual set of permissions (local storage, camera, etc.)
3)Use the magisk module given below
https://drive.google.com/file/d/19lwuT8koKQG3dod9nW2xzVHxWGQR-K3W/view?usp=drivesdk
The link below will provide the Gcams working-!!
THERE ARE 1) XCAM BETA 11
2) GCAM 6.2 WITH XML SUPPORT
3) GCAM 7 BETA
IN THE FOLDERS WHICH THE LINK BELOW PROVIDES !!

Another link for xmls-
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/oneplus-7-pro/
*These are the stable gcam, everything works perfectly except slow motion, stable for daily usage, also they support auxiliary cameras.
If you want to use aux cameras in
night sight and video mode, use xcam.
TO USE XML ON 6.2, LOAD XML TWICE!!

Urnyx 6.2 (No XML SUPPORT)(STABLE)-
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam-6.2.030_Arnova8G2_Urnyx05-v2.4.apk
Urnyx 7.2 (No XML Support)(STABLE)-
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam_7.2.010_Urnyx05-v1.3.apk
Star Cam based on Gcam 7 (STABLE)-
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam_7.0.009_StarCam_v1.apk
*For gcam 6.2-
Firstly, after installing apk, go to settings, go to about and enable "Enable Advanced Mode"
*For 6.2 Urnyx gcam-
It is a simplistic mod, not much to edit.
Guide:
- How to use manual controls?
- First of all, you must use HDR+ Enhanced. Then, enable the options in settings to show the sliders (only the 1st time). When you are in viewfinder to take a photo, click on "Pro" button to join the pro mode, where you can see all the sliders. Now, you can set any values you want. At the end, tap on the screen to apply changes (otherwise it won't work)
NOTE-
1) Only this version of 6.2 supports xmls-
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_V2.2.2beta2.190907.0540.apk
2) Slow motion doesn't work for now.
3) Lens distortion in wide lens.
How to have multiple gcams installed-

Do your versions support 4k video @ 60fps in normal and also in ultra wide mode?
The version of the other thread can switch to 60fps but actually the video is still recorded at 30
I have a stock 7 pro 12Gb, mine chrashes when i use portraitmode in 6.1

Hey, yes the 4k 60fps works but only with main cam, 4k works with aux cameras but only on 30fps.

Thank you...
Thanks! This works great....running intl version rom on tmobile op7pro with elementalX kernel... Used the desaturated xml, looks good. Also turned down saturation for main back camera as it was still a tad high....its weird because in viewfinder(screen) it looks ok, its only when the photo is processed is where saturation gets boosted....those settings are under "advanced" " highlight saturation" 1.3 and for "highlight shadows" 1.1 .....for anyone that wants to know. Also turned up jpeg quality to 100
Maybe this is a stupid question, but where is the apk file located initially?

I've noticed in 6.1 that motion photos don't work and portrait mode crashes in the selfie camera. Aside from that, this is the best gcam I've used so far!

Sorry, I probably should have made my question more clear. I have the app installed. But where can I find it in my phone's directory to move it to /system/priv-app, in order to get aux camera working?

I was looking for a working Gcam with astrography on my One Plus 7 pro and i tried more than 30 different apks by different modders all had issues with astro and i accidentally discovered that the version PMGC_7.2.014_Relesed_V1.apk from Parrot043 with working astrography. I have uploaded few pics with astrography.
Know bug : Astrography will start but it will not end automatically you have to manually end it after the timer stops.
PS : I take no credit of this application as well as bugs. All credits go to the developer Mr.Parrot043
Link to dev page : https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-parrot043/
Link to download APK : https://ff.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/PMGC_7.2.014_Relesed_V1.apk
For some reason XDA'S upload not working so i have uploaded the sample images to GDrive : https://drive.google.com/open?id=12kKZQTGh6Z4k3A8JCz4g1FlUAX-NYltk

hi thanks for sharing it other functions are working?
Will have to check
Well as far as i know lens changing is not working, full zoom fc, others will have to see
All three lens are functional. Thanks
For me this mod is crashing on launch. I was cleaning app data.
front camera crashes app when on portrait mode
.
Works pretty werll despite being in a light polluted metropole
Thanks for sharing, i can confirm it works on 7 pro ob7.
Btw i shared the exact same apk on a telegram group for our device, i think there was a guy named "sir tavares", she insisted on that astro cant be done on op7pro, go buy pixel etc. Then she banned me when i shared the apk to the group ?
just be careful guys this type of people are toxic in your life beware of them and their group.btw i have screenshots of his language i can share if anyone wants to see it.more like "sir moron".

How are your switching between lenses? I can only access the main rear and front cameras.
Also, can confirm that Slow Motion and Selfie Portrait crash the app. (currently on OP7pro 10.3.0)

Regular Portrait works, Selfie Portrait crashes.
That's really odd about the settings, mine looks totally different. Are you using some magisk module or custom kernel?
(I'm using the version you linked in the first post.)

That's my front can in portrait. Right now I'm running bliss 10. I did use the app before flashing it and was on beta 7. Try to flash a pixel mods in magisk. I noticed I had to flash gapps for it to even run on bliss alone

Hmm, it must be some combination of Bliss Rom/kernel that is enabling a different menu and front Portrait. I'm on stock 10.3.0.
I read in another thread that the GCam app needs to be a system app (in the system/priv-app folder) to enable access to the aux cameras. I tried moving the app folder there, but it just moved itself back after a reboot. I'm seeing if I can move the app some other way. Not sure if any of those Magisk modules from your screenshot would help with the app settings.
Edit: successfully converted the app to a system app using the App Systemizer Magisk module. Made no difference for the settings (still don't see options for aux cams). Oh well, must be a rom/kernel issue. Thanks for you help!

Thanks for this. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for the Parrot version, only the Urnyx. The colors on the Parrot version are pretty bad, and the selfie cam won't work (3/4 cameras not working) so I've switched to Urnyx, and have the tele/zoom/selfie lenses all working now, but lost Astrophotography. Oh well, I give up.

For me, the colors on the PMGC 7.2.014 were terrible (initially pale, unsaturated; improved a bit with saturation settings) but I just couldn't get the white balance right.
I've attached 4 pics: Stock 10.3.0 cam (default), Stock 10.3.0 HDR forced on, Urnyx05 7.2.010 (1.6), and PMGC 7.2.014.
(Note: It seems you can get different settings based on your rom/kernel, so your results may vary.)
I preferred the Urnyx05 7.2.010 (HDR always on) slightly over Stock with HDR (though, depending on how you like your shadows, you might even prefer stock). The color accuracy between these 2 was the same. Stock without HDR didn't handle shadows well, and PMGC needs settings adjusted before it's functional.

The above review and attached screenshots refer to the main camera. I just realized you were asking about the aux cams. I compared the Stock HDR vs Urnyx Gcam HDR (I suspect the PMGC will have similar results as the Urnyx after adjusting the color/saturation settings):
Telephoto (Zoom): Stock starts "3x", Urnyx Gcam is labelled "2x" but is showing only a slightly wider field of view than stock. Stock appears to be zooming/cropping some of the native image. Color accuracy is about the same. Default settings in Gcam make the picture undersaturated (like PMGC), but given the Lib Patcher settings, contrast & saturation can be boosted to match stock. About a tie here once you play with the Gcam settings.
Wide: Once again, Stock cam crops/zooms into the native image more, so the Urnyx Gcam has a wider image. However, Urnyx Gcam makes no lens correction and the edges are pretty distorted. The colors on this lens showed the most difference, with the stock being slightly more saturated with a much better HDR result, while the Urnyx Gcam is lighter/less saturated (likely adjustable in GCam's additional settings), but not a great HDR output. Stock cam wins here, with the significantly better HDR and lens correction. (Note: attached images are cropped for privacy; upper-right ~75% of the image is shown)
