Are You sure the version that you suggest on the post is the working one? I just tried and is'nt working properly for me.. The camera do not crash anymore but the video stucks bringing a poor experiencie.
I tried to attach a sample but the format seems to be incompatible to the forum

If you're talking about it Having bad quality, that's how it is
Using slow motion zooms the video and shoots it at 1/120 s shutter speed
In mediocre light, the camera will struggle to pick up light so it will look horrible
Only use it in the day time or use it when there is A LOT of light

I just tried, it lags a lot on my end. also the video result is nowhere close to smooth.
Can you share your settings?
Currently, I'm on RevolutionRemix Custom ROM

I forgot to mention, I do use a magisk module to take smooth videos and maybe that's the reason
Try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/themes/magisk-fix-stable-fps-video-recording-t3754881
It helps keeps the video smooth, even in mediocre light

To fix lags do the following:
start Google Camera (Arnova8g2 last version)
tap slow motion
press home button and minimize app
start stock camera
tap on video icon
press home button and minimize app
resume Google Camera
Now recording in slow motion should be smooth. You should be able to use flashlight while recording slow motion videos with no issues.

What hdr parameters you using in foto

Only works on Custon ROMs. No on stock One.

Google pixel hdr+ camera working on x820

Hi All,
This is my first post but i think some one will find it useful. Ukrainian developer going by the username B-S-G has modded the google pixel hdr camera app to work on snapdragon x820-x835 processors.
i have tested this on the leeco tv max x820 and it works perfect.#
but first i had to remove the stock camera via root uninstall system apps (see playstore).
i have attached a link to the camera app below.

Yeah, but all cameras on N ROMs have some sort of quirk for me. Maybe just takes some playing around with. Cam is only in bata, I'm guessing all cams will get better with time/source released....

Can you upload some pictures taken with it? Or some comparisons (with / without HDR+) would be even more interesting.

Google's hdr+ algorithm was praised a lot ... It seems to be working properly. Any problems with other modes of the camera...?
Can confirm that it crashes on EUI. Should I delete stock camera to make it work or?

Don't think it will work on EUI, only on N-based ROMs.

What's wrong with the second photo?
EDIT: Never mind, the phone on the stand was hard to notice
Is everything else working including slow motion? And is there any lag compared to the unmodified systema's camera speed? Cause I've experienced those in 7.0, and a lot of crashes

I worry that the Pixel camera is not optimized for the Mi A1. Are there any comparison shots to see if there is a difference in picture quality?
PS: I know that I am suggesting that the current camera app is optimized, which is a little ludicrous if you consider the low light performance

The current stock (A1) camera is a king in daylight. Both rear and Portrait ... But in low light its not. Pixel camera won there. .. For example if u like to take a Portrait shot in extremely low light in A1 then Pixel Camera will help. With Flashlight also....
I don't have any comparison shots now. But i can tell u its worth. 200% worth

This is great news, thank you! It makes me hopeful that the low light performance in the vanilla version of the A1 will improve significantly with software updates... fingers crossed
This is Epic! It's wonderful how Google proves to be a portrait maestro without dual cameras!!
Same lights (none) and still portrait mode acheived with flash from front camera. I am so happy to have a phone running on Oreo and to have stumbled upon this post. Thanks.

New pixel 3 camera

Has anyone been able to get it to work?
I see Max Lee has it, but only for the 6p. And older pixel phones...
Forced closed on my ph1

Installed but FC'ed for me as well. Guess we need to wait for ports.
Works fine on my Pixel 2.
Fc'd here.
Arnova just dropped his first port for it.
Works perfect for me so far.
Check it out on the GCam Port Hub website!
Edit - Still lots of bugs, especially with tap to focus and the integrated Google Lens implementation. Camera randomly stops working and while there is Lens Blur, there is no dedicated Portrait mode yet.
Yeah tested Arnova's port this morning. He did mention that it's just to test the new UI. Very promising though!

I tried his "test2" version. Seems to work pretty well. Slow Motion video doesn't seem to work at the moment.
Any news on an updated port? I've been looking since the last release and now with the Night Sight I'm definitely interested in a port for the PH-1

Just installed. Wow. G-cam was always good in the daylight. Now the low light performance is some of the best I've seen. Just need to be patient with exposure and processing time. Small price to pay. Very impressed.
Been using the camera posted to the front page and wow! Night sight is amazing. Some of the pictures you capture with it is unbelievable.
So far it is fantastic! Only thing I can't go work he slow motion video.

can someone post a few sample night shots? Looking to get this and trade my lg g7 - but if there isn't a huge difference in camera quality, i'll probably stick with the g7.
thanks in advance!
Installed latest are0zer0 magisk mod and installed front page camera. No slo motion. Don't have any AR stuff running, so no stickers.

I'll post pics later for comparison, but the pics on the Gcam are much better. Colors and dynamic range are way better - low light is no competition.
