What is working:
1-Portrait mode (Back only, with dual camera)
2-4k video recording
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.

Hi all..
This is a fix for the broken implementation of camera 2 API on our device.
This will allow us to finally shoot up to 32 sec raw image in camera 2 API and also enables up to 100k ISO...
Much love and respect to @defcomg for fixing this for us, he is an amazing dev and if you would like to donate to him you can hit this link!
NOTE:
This mod will probably only work on Lineage and 7.1.1+ ROMs. I've tested it on latest RR (16 June) and it works.
Don't flash on MIUI ROMs, I haven't and probably won't test it, but feel free if you are brave :laugh:
Make a backup (TWRP). Or if anything goes wrong just reflash ROM, it'll fix your problem.
I take no responsibility for brick or boot-loop...
LINK:
V1 - Initial [LOS/RR etc..]
V1 - Test (I need someone to tell me if this works) [Miui N ROMs]
V2 - Nightmode profiles [11 December]
V3 - Oreo Libs [1st Feb]
For future versions I would like to try to add longer exposure times as well as fix pixel binning for better low light shots!
Edit:
16 June: There is a delay when shooting long exposure, for example when selecting 32 sec, the shutter button will be pressed for like 32sec x 2 = +-64 secs, don't know why but anyways it only shoots for first 32 seconds, so just be aware of that..
19 June: Fixed Miui N test lib link
11 Aug: Nightmode coming soon, this will allow longer shutter speeds, essentially up to about 5 mins
Also all apps should be able to take advantage of this.
11 Dec:
Added libmm shutter extension and pixel binning.. The respective number (3, 9, max [14]) multiplies the shutter by that amount, meaning if you have an app that normally can only capture up to 1/17 shutter, and use 3x lib it will now use 3/17 shutter (almost 0.2 sec), this affects all video and photo apps, you can restore it by replacing original file..
Oreo has a busted HAL so shutter on manual only hits about 4 sec without breaking, using max libmm mod you can get about 1 min shutter I think, in nougat using fixed cam 2 libs, you can get about 7 min shutter time.
Pixel binning is somewhat working, it has a dark preview, and I don't know why, but when you shoot in raw, you will see the file is much brighter with less noise, but at lower res.
Place the file in /system/vendor/lib then reboot the device
NOTE: The HAL fix from above (V1) will not work on Oreo since it's using a new HAL, so don't use that, if you don't know or are unsure..
1st Feb 2018: Patched Oreo libs to allow long exposure. Added libmm multiplication hacks.
Gonna be away till like mid Jan, so might not be able to answer questions..
Good work ?
Can the default snap camera take advantage of this api2 or another camera app has to be used?
Could he fix the Google camera force close when change to front camera, thanks

I don't use stock camera, I use FreeDcam raw mode, and when I shoot jpeg, I shoot with denoise off. So with stock you will see less noise in images, but freeDcam will have much more details

Check the OP, all this mod does is enable 32 sec shutter on Cam2 api and adds ISO 100k. It doesn't add quality/features or mods to the camera..

FreeDcam app specially for Mi 5s
Is it possible to enable iso lower than 100? Or maybe it's pointless because it's achieved by software, and the quality will be worse than 100? So can we conclude that lineage (or some other) roms are better than MIUI? I'm thinking moving to these roms.
By the way, it seems that the link on the first post was incorrect (miui one), the later ones are working though.

I'm on miui 7.6.15 xiaomi.eu , got upto 8714 iso with snap camera. Stock remains 3200. Still 16 bit raw Still 1/3 s shutter with 3rd party camera apps, though I heard someone already has shutter longer than 1s with 3rd apps. I don't remember have flashed any other patches especially related to cameras
With los, Lightroom could have shutter 1s, but iso up to 100k, I don't know if it really works, as it's white paper after 10k anyway.
isnt it possible to use Pixel libs?

Sent from my MI 5s using XDA-Developers Legacy app
This mod is dedicated to Lineage OS not Miui.
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 had installed pixel experience rom on my whyred and was wondering to get fully stable Gcam on it to get complete pixel rom on my whyred,then tried with BSG's gcam but it offers limited features so I turned to find a stable Gcam with almost all features and came across this Gcam mod : MGC_5.3.015_v.1.0.5_Tolyan009.
It can be used as daily driver as it almost fully stable.
What's Working in it.
1.Slow mo.
2.Portrait.
3.Google lens.
4.Video at 1080p 60 fps
<auto focus working with video stabilization>
5.photo sphere.
6.panorama.
Problems with this:
1.lens blur is bit choppy and is advised not to use it.
2.Run and use this as it is with default settings change in settings may results in app blunders.
3.there is 4k uhd option but it's not working.
THIS MOD IS TESTED ONLY ON PIXEL EXPERIENCE ROM.
YOU CAN USE ON MIUI BUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT WORKS.

For this to work make Gcam as default camera app.
Everything is working fine in my phone after making it default app and disabling snapdragon camera app.
If it still not works try clearing data and rebooting phone.

Dude I just checked. Selfies are getting flipped after clicking the picture.
Like in stock camera, selfies look like when you are about to click the picture.
But one problem I found in all gcam apps is after clicking the picture, selfies don't look like just before clicking. They are flipped sideways.

But one problem I found in all gcam apps is after clicking the picture, selfies don't look like just before clicking. They are flipped sideways.

I am sorry for that but in my case it is working properly without any problem so I am not able to scratch this.

On lineage front camera works
I just tried this with the new RR 7 (RR-P-v7.0.0-20190203-whyred-Official) and it works fine.
⌐At first the images were monochrome for some reason, switched config HDR+ to pixel 1 and the images came out normal and with HDR+. Turning it back to pixel 2 after a while
and magically nothing changed. Images were still in color.
⌐There are a few random bugs like the ones in OP and some others like there being 2 lens blur mode options.

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.

Gonna give it a try. :good:
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.

This one: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog225/ Based on https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog223/ which I believe is based on BSG or Arnova version.

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.
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:
vendor.camera.aux.packagelist2=com.motorola.ccc,co(THIS SPACE)m.dual.GCam,com.motorola.camera2
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.

2) Open up the buid.prop file (located in /system/system/). 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. In the build.prop you must add the following line (or edit it, if already present): vendor.camera.aux.packagelist2=com.motorola.ccc,com.dual.GCam,com.motorola.camera2

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
