Issues with Portrait photos by Google Camera (Ported) - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

I am using S8+ Snapdragon variant. I've used different Google Camera ports to use Portrait Mode. They work perfectly on my phone. After taking photos a portrait effect is applied and that looks beautiful. The problem is, when the photo is opened or shared to others app the effect is gone. Can someone please explain me, what is the issue and how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

[Q] What camera app are you using on your idol3?

Google Camera? Camera Zoom FX? The default? What's working for you?

I use the stock app for videos, OpenCamera for stills, Freedcam for landscapes using RAW mode , and Google Camera - if I want panorama or photo-sphere.
'A Better Camera' - will save to SD card. It is pretty nice - but I uninstalled it after I realized that the free version had a limitation of number of HDRs pictures it allows.

Using stock, OpenCamera, A BetterCamera. I like OpenCamera except it doesn't yet support writing to external SD.
My main complaint with the stock camera is that it seems to only support two resolution settings (and I am guessing they are the really the same resolution, just one is cropped to make 16:9 aspect ratio). Am I missing something? Is there a way to take lower-resolution photos (e.g. for web posting or faster email upload) using the stock camera app?
I use Camera FV-5.

Does it allow saving to the external sd on lollipop? As far as I know only the stock camera allows that.
Camera FV-5 I found does not work for some reason on the Idol. I start the camera and get a black screen. I do get the settings but nothing else but a black screen. I going to contact app developer soon about it.
The best camera so far (for any device) it's procapture because: it can silent all the sounds (except those in whats app), it can put the grip on and it can capture just by touch. Besides theese, there are many-many other settings as wb, iso, hdr, light mode etc

Your phone has to support Google's Camera2 API in order for the app to even function. Right now only a few devices even support the official Google Camera2 API. The ones I know of are: Nexus 6, Samsung Galaxy Note 4, Samsung Galaxy S6, LG G4. Since the camera hardware is the same as my Nexus 6, I'd expect this app to just work, but Alcatel's software side probably isn't even written with Camera2 API in mind.

Sweep panorama capture very low quality pics.

Hi all
My Z5 6.0.1 take panorama pic with very low quality pic(4912x1080pixel ) and blur. someone got this problem like me ?
Ya. Everybody's got the same problem. Shame on Sony for not implementing their own panorama algorithm and instead using a bulls**t 3rd party app. To remedy this, I use Google Camera's panorama mode. It works great. I don't know if there is any better app.

Open Camera bug in OP7 pro?

Hello everyone
I am trying to do a focus bracketing photo but for some reason open camera's photos are somewhat blurry even in the focus region. I have uploaded a pic taken from open camera (1st one) and one taken from stock camera (2nd) to explain better my problem. Anyone else has it? (I was using it in LG G5 flawlessly).
Also, anyone knows a camera app that can do focus bracket with auto stepping?

How to fix laggy previews (buffer fix) in the Google Camera 8.1 in an Oppo a91?

I recently bought an Oppo A91 and is amazing. Its camera is good but I wanted to take pics at night. I installed several Google Camera ports but the best one overall is the MCG one:
BSG: MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix
Download MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix by BSG.
www.celsoazevedo.com
However, all picture camera modes (Night Sight, Portrait, and Camera) look laggy. The previewer is not smooth at all as you can see in the video.
Your browser is not able to display this video.
Furthermore, I tested several ports and each one that worked had the same issue. It doesn't happen when you're using the video camera, panoramic, or 360 only when you want to take normal pics. Also, I disabled the Google Lens and didn't change it at all.
I read in some forums about a Buffer issue but I don't know what I can change. Generally speaking, the camera works well. You can take amazing pics but it looks laggy. I just would like to know if it can be fixed. Thanks for your ideas.
hello, it's been 1 year since you posted your problem and today I also had the same problem with you, have you found any solution for this problem?
What is you display hz Rate 120 or above ......
Try down grading your resolution and then try ....
