Have any of you tried using the Google Camera APK with your U12+ yet? Since the Pixel 2 has only one lens, I wasn't sure if it would be able to function correctly. Haven't tried yet!
Working fine here.

This is the one I am currently using, however the portait mode is unusable on both front and rear cameras (it shows around 2-3 fps)

Oh great! Can you notice a big difference in picture quality vs the stock camera software?

Not really. Somehow lime the stock HTC Camera App more at the moment.

The big difference that I can see is on the portrait mode on the front camera. While HTC's camera app results in mediocre and inaccurate pics, Google Cam (even the aforementioned one, with a terrible preview refresh rate) produces excellent, crisp selfies with great bokeh. Unfortunately, portrait mode on the rear cams does not work on this Gcam version, so I cannot compare.
Question about this. Since this is just software, 3rd party at that, if in any way it corrupts whatever in the stock cam app, a factory reset should resolve any problems, right?

First of all, it's a separate app. Why do you think it will corrupt a different application (stock camera)? It's like you saying Facebook will corrupt Viber.
So to answer your question, NO.
Has anyone found a working version where portrait mode (front and rear) aren't pretty much unusable? (major lag)

This. If you take a look back on this thread you will see that I am looking for the same, because GCam for portrait shots is leagues ahead from HTC's camera app. I have tried most of the versions, and most of the ones made for dual- lens phones (S9+, G7, OP6) crash on startup, while some older ones work but the lag on portrait modes makes them useless. I also failed to find a general forum discussing GCam here on XDA (which makes sense, as all versions are phone-specific). I think the only way to find a working version is either by luck or when/if a developer works on a version specific to U12+

V1 doesn't totally work for me, I can't use Portrait and Slowmotion modes, and I only can take pics in HDR+ mode :/
wonder if any of the night sight versions work hahaha. Seen some Nokias being able to use it outside of the pixels....
Tried this one briefly:
MGC_6.1.009_MI8_V1b.apk (BSG, 2018-11-03, changelog)
Worked, but after each shot, was receiving error of a hexagon failing......so reverted to the older 1b in case of unreliability - anyone else tried? This version did have night sight - didnt get a chance to try.

Installed it like a regular app.
Works pretty well in both camera and video modes.
Wish it had more options though.
Thanks a lot.
This is a step in the right direction. Would be nice if someone could take this and add all the changes that cyan had added to the AOSP camera in his rom.

Sorry I don't have a screenshot, but if you have used CM6, in the early stages before Cyanogen added all the new features to the camera, it is the same camera. Shows up as 3mp, one user said that even though it says 3mp, it is actually 8mp. I can't confirm this, as I no longer have this camera app on my phone. Can anyone else confirm the MP on this camera? Easy way to do this, is to upload a pic to your computer and open it in any photo app. You can also find the pic on your phone and long press the pic and select "Details". What is the resolution of pics taken with this app?

That's what I thought. I remembered the original camera from CM6 was only 3 and this looks like the exact same setup. I deleted when I saw the lack of options. I wish someone could mix in the changes that Cyanogen did to the cam app in CM6. That has a LOT of options.... lol

But to be fair to instagram, they do warn when selecting the advanced camera that it does not work on all devices...

He wants to use instagram... And only has problem with the advanced camera inside of instagram. Just disable that option and you're good to go if your stock camera is OK. No sense using a third party camera of the problem is app specific.

The problem is with camera drivers from cm or the kernel.
The stock camera app has same problem.
That's why I use camera360 which have hardware compatibility mode.

Oh ok...
Just wondering... are you talking about an ICS ROM? Or GB? I think the OP has lost interest after starting the thread, and left us here to squabble!!
If you ask me, i think this problem is app centred, and I encountered it even on Instagram running on GB 2.3.5 (I'm running Endymion - Sense 3.5) where the stock camera is the best you'll find for the Desire S on any ROM.
I'm using stock ROM. Obviously I'm aware I can disable the option of using Instagram's in-built camera, but this is not the solution I'm hoping for I love Instagram filters but I don't like the fact I have to come out of the app and open up stock Android cam app, resize it, and go back again. Using Instagram's advanced am feature is so much better.
The rest of the image is fine and the option works perfectly APART from this one really ruining fluorescent pink line down the left side of every image.

Well, that's a bug with the app... sit tight, with Instagram's growing popularity, they're bound to roll out updates with fixes to the camera anytime soon!
Regardless, there's nothing you or I could do to fix an app issue. Instagram will have to fix that.
When you still experiencing this using Instagram camera try to switch to front camera take a shot, then revert to back camera. Pink line gone now. Works for me.

5.1.13.12 is the current version.
Up until now I pressed on the focus button and I took the pic. Now this doesn't work.
Am I wrong?
You now press anywhere on the screen apart from the focus point.
Also by tapping and holding the focus button you can lock focus? Was this there before?

Hey guys, how is the exposure improved? Other than low light improvement, I sure hope the overblown highlight is fixed as well. The overblowing problem makes its photos less attractive than others.
