Finally a new working Google Camera app..? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Arnova8G2's Google Camera Port got updated days ago with a new version : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79011638&postcount=1333 - I'm on Oreo Stock.
When i install it (not the TinNeun version, the other one), the app doesn't crash but screen is black.. Perhaps a little tweak and it'd all work?

Wanna know as well

Here is a full working Google Pixel Camera V.5.1 with HDR+ and 4K Video Record (30FPS) for the S7 Exynos modded by IDan1109 :
Video only works in 1920x1080p (Full Hd) I also set the Picture Quality from 97 to 100 and Picture back camera to 16/9 and i set "Remove the ISO limit in dark conditions" - on
FOR 4K VIDEO RECORDING and Hevc activate hevc in devloper options from Gcam app and install the Magisk Modul Samsung UHD Camera2 Fix and ARCore from Playstore
Tested on S7 Exynos! Dont change to 60 FPS in video Mode otherwise you must uninstall and install the app again for video to work again. The pictures with HDR+ are much better compared with Zero Camera Mod HDR.

The 6.1 gets forced closed when i open it and it does not have all that options (settings) like V.5
I get a v. 6 to work but compared with v.5 the quality in 5 is much better!

Please tell us which v6 fully works for you (night mode..)

I can't even go to settings : it crashes at launch..! I'm using stock oreo. Do i know to install some patch (magisk or else)?

I am currently quite impressed by the GCAM xenius0 mod version provided by ExpressLuke. I guess it is still based on 5.1. Nevertheless, night shots look great. Besides Lens Blur, all works fine on my S7 Exynos (stock ROM). Here is the download link (scroll down to Google Camera Port): https://expressluke.ml/pages/extras.html

Interesting, never heard about that one before, i hardly imagine a v5 better than Irdn though, would you mind telling us what's better with it?

My feeling is that pictures at night are less noisy, and flash-light indoor picture are more homogeneously illuminated. I am using the default settings.

I have been taking pictures with this version for a while, I would recommend setting ON the "reduce contrast" for better shadow detail and adding in "Advanced setting HDR+" options, 1.2 in highlights saturation.
Just test it.

Google Camera ported app on OP5T

As some of you know the Google Camera app with HDR On is great to shot low light pictures. However OP5 users as myself aren’t as lucky when using the modded Google Camera app as as users from other devices.
With OP5 we have bugs that seem to be applicable only to our case: touch to focus not working along HDR & dots pattern issue visible when you zoom in certain pictures shot with the modded camera.
Therefore I would like to ask for a favor to the first OP5T owners:
Download and install this modded camera app (I pick this version because it’s simple without tons of settings)
Test if touch to focus work when HDR is enabled and if the picture is saved (do not confuse touch to focus with touch to change main point of exposure)
Shot some pictures with low light
Feedback in this thread
If someone want to try one of the last versions of the app, then you can download it from here (shout out to Kisakuku).
The last modded version as per today 21st November is "MGC_5.1.016_7.0+C2API_v.1.3a_AllinOne.apk", but as I said the new new versions contain lot of settings that make it really time consuming to find the appropriate ones for each device.
That’s why in the OP I posted just the last version of Google Camera app with the minimum edits needed to get the HDR feature working on any Android 7.1.1 / Snapdragon 835 phones.
Yeah I dl "MGC_5.1.016_7.0+C2API_v.1.3a_AllinOne.apk"
No working focus touch
The picture is saved
They both seem pretty bad but I'm not an expert.

Are those 2 pictures that you uploaded shot with HDR On? Which settings are you using?
In OP5 depending on the combination of settings used in the app touch to focus can work or not work, but usually it’s hit and miss so it can stop working randomly.
Do you notice small dots when you zoom in on the pictures shot with GoogleCam and HDR On?
I just would like to know if OP5T has the same bugs with the ported GoogleCam has the same bugs that we have on OP5.
To make it more clear on which version and settings to use:
Please test this most recent version: https://drive.google.com/open?id=149yvCKyk2F75z_snuSjbivKF5PiWtkT9
with these settings from the screenshots: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74417844&postcount=1215
In "Advanced" settings, enable HDR+ control right at the top!
Afterwards restart the camera app (completely swipe it away from recent apps), restart it and set the HDR+ toggle to "HDR+ Enhanced".
It is also important to get some shots in daylight, as the OP5 had issues with a constantly visible dot pattern in light areas.
Also please do not upload the shots directly through the forum, as they get downsampled and compressed. Use an imagehoster like abload.de for example, or even Google Photos.
Of course it is even better to additionally post a similar shot you took with the stock camera app, so we get a better picture of how this mod works on the OP5T.
Thanks for testing!

Seems gcam's got a tendency towards a cooler white balance..same thing happens on the Essential phone. Which would you say best matches reality, color-wise?
I don't know about color but the OP is suffering from pretty major loss in detail. There's a couple of spots of light creeping through that's clearly visible in the GCam but not so much in the OP. The OP is also suffering from a lot of graininess... the top left corner next to the suitcase is a good example.
@randumbore:
Did you follow AcmE85 instructions from post #5 in this thread?
Does touch to focus work?
thx for helping,

Yes, all settings are as mentioned in #5. I don't believe Touch to Focus is working, all it's doing is changing point of exposure (although I've never used TTF before so I could very well be wrong). Also the post-processing is incredibly quick with HDR+ Enhanced enabled. Coming from a Nexus 6p where it used to take ages, I can't tell if the OPT5T is just that fast or the HDR+ is just not working on the GCam app.

You could set the processing to medium or super high to see if it makes a difference in speed.
Should take much longer on the highest setting.

Ah you're right, setting it to super high did take a long time. Not a whole lot of change in the end result, but yeah.

How else do you focus if not by touching exactly where you want the camera to focus?!?
---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------
One more question, I found a thread from MickyFoley, maybe you could try this out for him (and me and I suppose lots of others)!
quote MickyFoley:
Dear owners of an OnePlus 5T and maybe 5 too,
please grant me an answer to a really important question: Is the Camera2-API bug fixed for the OP5T or is it still valid and OnePlus didn't do anything against it?
Please do following:
Download Open Camera > Go to settings > Scroll down > Switch on Camera2-API > Cover the rear camera with your hand > Read the values at the very top of your screen:
• If ISO 799 and 1/16,7 is still here: Nothing was fixed. Please leave a reply.
• If values differ from those values (ISO 799 1/16,7) OnePlus finally fixed the Camera2 API. Please also leave a reply.
Thanks in advance.

A couple more from my apartment with considerable sunlight (the first is stock, the second with more overexposure of GCam with recommended settings)

Working Pixel cam with HDR+ and standalone portrait on s8 (exynos-nougat)

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
Credit to these threads and the developers:

https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/google-camera-hdr-t3655215
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 instal MiniUser's version of GCam and it work flawlessly on s8+

This is for Le max 2 on Slim7 ROM 7.1.2, the focus is not very good and does not like focusing on small or close objects that much, also using your latest Gcam only the back portrait mode only works with people and the front portrait is green and not usable, motion photos does not work and when triggered crashes the app. When using HDR there is sometimes red dots (this mostly happens in dark conditions). Thanks for your work.

Odd, your settings just give me black screen. And none of the settings in this BSG mod give me actual HDR+. GCMod5 works well though.

Oh, could be the device model and modem? I am on the Indian model x821 and using the 19s modem. Was previously using the 26s modem which did result in camera fc, so I switched back to 19s (the default modem for my device)
Also I did have the black viewport problem until I cleared the app data from settings.

Tried the last thing. By working front portrait you meant the background blur effect?

I think quality is still great
This are my settings, works great on miui, and i have same quality or even better than pixel xl 2016.
Amazing.

Hi all.
I've tried many versions on mi5s LOS14.1 from January 1, 2018.
The versions by BSG are more stable than the ones from Arnova, Starky etc.
But... the most recent version by BSG that works well on my setup is 5.1.018_FullManual_v1.4a_Android-7.0+
All the more recent versions titled MGC_5.1.018.177470874.41362666__A7.0-8.1_MI5S_v2a/b/c/d/e are very unstable.
Anyway, my settings are as appear in the attached screenshot.
Video is 4k, but no stabilization.
video at 60 fps in 1080p doesn't work (it is recorded, but the output isn't 60fps. It is 30fps).
Portrait mode fails miserably (many random short streaks of green overlaid on the image)
I don't have zsl.
Does anyone here have a better google camera combination working under LOS14.1?
Also - why does portrait mode require android 8.x anyway?

Google Camera APK for Galaxy S9 SM-G9600 (Snapdragon 845)

Hello guys,
Can anyone tell if there is a Google Camera APK that works on the Galaxy S9 SM-G9600 (snapdragon 845 processor)? I looked for all possible sites and found for version with Exynos processor, which worked in Galaxy with snapdragon, except the portrait modes, which left the application with very leg and sometimes crash in the app.
Anyone who has an S9 with snapdragon could indicate some apk that actually works? I do not really like the native app, I think the colors tend to be yellowish and poorly sharp, the google camera application does a much better job.
Thank you.
I wanna latest version for S8 plus Exynos

I found a working one for my Unlocked Snapdragon S9+ today. Go to the site I linked and grab the first One Plus apk. That one worked for me. Be aware that the front camera portrait mode doesn't seem to work. Lens blue does though and produces a similar bokah effect.

Idan's build crashes on startup for me and the phone reboots. That's why I suggested the build that I did.
My phone is also a Snapdragon S9+.
Just ran the security update that Samsung pushed out and now the IDan build works for me as well. It's confusing that it says it's for Exynos processors, but it's working on Snapdragon.
For me it did not work the apk developed by Idan, I will try the apk made for Oneplus 6. I also did not receive security update from samsung, after that update I will try again the apk of Idan. I have a gakaxy s9 128gb (sm-g9600).

Actually, portrait works, but is live view is very laggy.
Camera Comparasion - GCAM S9 vs Stock S9
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BhEcmoGRzR_Cc-sa6CRZi-YEMaMZIphV
- Do not forget to zoom in to see the details of each photo!
- I do not know why, but the angle got more open in the photos taken with the google camera app.
- Portrait dont work for me, much laggy!
I made a comparison to see how the google app is far superior in selfies.
I used the last Idan apk, as it was made for Exynos processors. Portrait mode dont work, just Lens Blur mode.
I did not edit any settings, because the app closed when something changed in the congifurations, but it was possible to make the quality much better if I configured HDR + for Pixel 2 XL, 100% HDR quality, etc ...
See how even in Lens Blur mode, the cut is much better than the Samsung app, the colors are much more natural and the difference in sharpness and contrast is far superior.
The rear camera for me the quality is very similar, gcam has less exposure and a bit more detail while samsung app over exposure and a bit less detail.
I hope someone creates a stable version for the galaxy S9 and S9 + with snapdragon processors .
@IDan1109
The portrait mode does work, the live screen is laggy, but as soon as I hit capture, it takes the picture. The crazy part to me is even though I'm on my couch, you can see that it blurs it out. So, it's not trying to emulate a bokah effect as you would get on a high end camera.
(I don't know why the upload came out rotated, it does up correctly in the gallery)

For me the portrait mode does not work, when I click to take the picture the app does not work and sometimes it closes.
Testing some apk by IDan, practically all showed to be the most stable for Galaxy S9 with snapdragon, some could configure everything at maximum.
I think there is little left for these IDan apks to work on the Galaxy S9 with Snapdragon, as overall it's just solving the laggy problem in portrait mode and in some cases it looks like the photos are not saved.
Could someone help please?
Please, if any developers are willing to develop a google camera apk for Galaxy S9 with snapdragon processors, this apk is the most stable:

@Arnova8G2 @cstark27 @SKULSHADY
Using the default configuration (I did not make any changes, I left it the way it was when opening the apk for the first time), Problems I encountered:
1) Portrait mode with a lot of laggy, some report that even with this laggy the pictures are taken, in my case push the button to take photo nothing happens. The lens blur mode works great.
2) The battery is drained with this apk
3) Slow motion does not work.
The rest have been working very well apparently, panoramic mode, sphere mode, lens blur. I had no problems with the HDR +, it worked very well in all modes in this apk.
I think people are looking for this app to take pictures with the front camera, because it is much superior to the native app in S9, especially portrait mode! If someone can solve the problem in portrait mode, it will be a great help!
I tested with a Galaxy S9 128GB (SM-G9600)
Thanks!
Edit 05/07/20118
I tested this apk by IDan and I thought the best experience so far in my Galaxy S9.
Pixel2Mod V7
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76345648&postcount=78
I put all possible options at most, I realized that the function exposure slow shuter makes some visible difference in the quality of the photos.
The portrait mode works with a lot of laggy, as long as it does not try to focus manually with touch screen, I let app focus alone.
Improved HDR + mode sometimes does not work, but it worked most of the time. I didn'r have problems with HDR+ acitivate.
I don't know if it's normal but the post processing leaves the skin whiter, I wish it would look like the app shows on the screen, but that's an irrelevant problem for now.
The beteria was also drained, I believe it is a consequence of this app, which consumes a lot of battery even, because everyone I tested heard this problem.
I found the best experience for being able to use portrait mode, which was not possible with the app I tested earlier.
my device is an S9 plus snapdragon, and no app can run the HDR +, sad.

Try this apk, I think it will work. The "improved HDR+" may not work if you force the app to close and try again. The portrait works for me pretty laggy, as long as you do not try to focus manually, patiently let the app focus on its own.
You can enable: Auto-exposure mode: Slow shutter / HDR + Super high / JPEG HDR + 100%. Don't forget to force close after enable this settings.
This is the best apk for Galaxy S9 with snapdragon, I hope someone can develop based on this app a stable apk.

Is that a problem? I noticed that when I try to use portrait mode, it gets very laggy and it always appears this:
AF Focus: Continuous_Picture State: INACTIVE
roi:? lens: 10.00 sc: false
When I use normal camera modes this does not happen. Appers this:
AF Focus: Continuous_Picture State: PASSIVE_FOCUSED
roi:? lens: 3.70 sc: false
I'm using apk Pixel2Mod V7 by IDan

Is not a mistake. IDan does not support s9 or s9+. Don't expect any of these to work right, and we don't need every little issue you find to be reported here. Not until someone actually does a s9/s9+ port is that stuff helpful
miss you s8 kkkkk

friend ... I could not make HDR + work in this app ... only in the newer Idan version, do you have any special settings? I just managed to make this app work by going into selfie mode, changing the settings for Pixel 2017, and putting HDR + quality at 100%
