Pixel 4 Camera - Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey guys.
I tried nearly every Gcam 7/7.1 port on my RN6PRO.
but none of them worked, it installs normally, but as soon as I open the app and give all permissions, it gets force closed.
It doesn't even reach the viewfinder.
Running pre-latest HavocOS /Pie.
Tried some magisk modules/ some zips that claim to enable pixel4 camera on any device but with no luck.
If any one could run latest gcam on his RN6PRO/Pie, please share how could you run it kindly.
By the way I want to share my experience with TrGcam port.
Its the most stable and takes noticeable better photos than other ports(for me at least) try it and thank me later

Can you give a link to TrGcam port mentioned?

Working perfectly fine on mine RN6 with Cam2API enabled.
I didn't root it.

its not work properly because,Redmi note 6 pro doesnt have 32s shutter time or 16.Gcam only use high iso rates on this phone.i dont understand.Why xiaomi not allows that option? That will be works verry verry verry good if xiaomi allow this function.

At least this version can take normal and night sight photos.
But sadly when it detects tripod and starts astrophotography scence, it force closes immmediately.
Btw, looking at package name shows that this version is based on TrGcam.
Thank you thats a good headstart.
Edit 1:
Can you please post some astrophotography samples taken with your rn6pro?
Edit 2:
No, this port has nothing to do with trgcam, sorry dont blame me, blame ES File explorer

Actually, normal night sight takes photos at 0.5s exposure time, which is not possible on stock cam.
I know that night sight will not be very promising with this locked-exposure sensor, but I have some free time to do some of those out of risk experiments with gcam.
Btw, thanks for your information, 10s night sight are much better than nothing.
For now, I couldnt achieve more than 4 seconds of night sight (I mean total night sight photo takes around 4 seconds to capture, not 4s per frame)
Edit:
And for Xiaomi not enabling this feature, how would they convince you to buy their next redmi device?
Actually, if I bought an RN7, camera will be the reason.

Google Camera Port Optimal Settings

As many have heard or experienced, the stock Razer camera sucks. The Google Camera Port is awesome but does anyone know the optimal setting for the Razer phone? Those options are complex and I have no idea about really any of them.

I haven't tried that TBH. I just use the internal storage.
Here you go
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/....20_7.0H_C2API_v.4.0_AllinOne_Full_Manual.apk
That apk based off google camera 4.4 modified by B-S-G .
I had issues with recent 5.x update so do recomend just stick with 4.4
does it make any difference at all between the stock and this google camera?
it's the only thing keeping me from buying this awesome phone , that is the camera of course.
cheers !

Hey guys, I installed the Pixel camera app and immediately I noticed an improvement. The Razer camera seems to have a lag to it when moving it to different objects to take a photo. The Google app eliminated that. It's very smooth. Also, I noticed using the Google apk the photos don't look as grainy.
I can't wait for Razer to make improvements to the camera. It has potential. I will continue to experiment with this Google apk.

Hey guys, here's that link to the video comparison if you want to see it.
Google pixel camera apk on Razer phone.
Proves Razer's camera has potential!
The video compares the camera of the Pixel 2 XL to the camera of the Razer.
The video does not show the Razer phone using two different apps.

My friend, watch it again. He specifically says it's the Razer phone using the Pixel 2 XL ported camera app.
I think I actually prefer razer cam, the colour have a better depth and overall contrast - still dreaming of root and camera2 api for RAW capability, this phone will be a dream when that day comes!

When the lumia 1520 came out it was so horrible I stopped using the camera. Took a few months but they fixed the app, camera is still amazing even with the new phones coming out.
This is one area they're focusing on, they remarked they wanted to at least get basic functionality down, which you have to give them props on, Jan-Nov and they get a concept to market, and it doesn't suck. lol
Coming from years of Sony phones I have to say this is quite the piece of kit. Thoroughly enjoying audio and video. The camera is quite bad but I can wait for a fix.
Cool, right off the bat I can take pictures of text on my monitor without it going fuzzy like the pre-update camera app. Anyone care to try post-update razer camera app to take a pic of a website on their monitor? Does it go fuzzy?
i need the pixel camera to save to external sd card - is there a modded apk which offers this option?
obviously the reason it doesnt have that option off the bat is because the pixel does not have a micro sd slot

It should prompt you that's weird.
Anyway try launching the camera via the lockscreen see if that prompts you to change the default

Is there any GCMod with motion photo for OnePlus6 now?

I have tried many APKs at https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/#apk195 and some others for OnePlus5/5T.
They are not working.
Anyone have a solution for this problem?
THX.
Also didn't manage to find a working app that gives the same quality like I had with gcmod5 on OP3 before yet
MGC_5.2.022 yields pretty good results for me.
Gcam doesn't work properly with SD845 yet.

I though it is suggested setting when u install it.

When will we get this feature.
Does MGC_5.2.022 have dots on photos?
m really confused, wheather should i go ahead and buy op6 or should i wait for improved op6t !!
at oneplus experience store, i clicked a lot of pics, but certainly i am not satisfied with the quality which we used to get in op3t !! with a gcam mod. It just blows away. M using IP7 as a spare phone and camera is pretty good, m not a iphone guy. hopefully someone find out to make camera better. specifically, portrait mode ported from google pixel 2 ! fingers crossed.
Any version of Gcam I tried doesn't work on the 6. HDR+ seems to be nonfunctional. Maybe it really just isn't compatible with the SD845

It is not working.
After selecting model. either Pixel or Nexus and restart the app, it pops up with error.
If you do not select any model, HDR just don't running.

Maybe after the Pixel 3 release.
With SD 845 doesn't work HDR+; so it's usefuy, for now.
I got Urikills version of gcam to process the HDR+-shot twice. After that, no go. Tried to reproduce but cant make it happen. Settings were Pixel / Nexus 6 auto hdr+ / super fine.
Just saying that there is hope.

Tried the new GoogleCamera-Pixel3Mod-Arnova8G2-V3.apk today. Instant crash

GCAM

This works fabulously on my Huawei P20 Pro
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-TlnNeun_Urnyx05-v3.6.apk
Portait, Night Sight and Photobooth don't work though. This I expected.
I've had a quick play and there's no issues taking pictures.
Thanks a lot for the link, been looking for a gcam port. Appreciate it.
what settings did you enter?
I cant seem to get the viewfinder to work. Do you what settings are required?
Still no HDR+.
Does not work for me, black screen in photo mode.

Which configuration have you set up? I´m trying it and black screen on EMUI 9
This is what I'm using and it's working pretty well for me so far.
Using EMUI 9 here.
that worked, thanks.
Set to "Pixel2018 HW Zsl Hdr(need YUV)" and no black screen. ?
It work but still no HDR+
It works but still no Night or portrait mode. Any config idea?
No ideas at the moment.
Been wondering myself if there's a way to get them to work.
Fabulous, yes HDR+ doesn't work but finally its the end of the Huawei heavy post-process, I tried and love the softness of pictures, ability to choose the quality of pictures, noise reduction etc...
Btw "normal" Panorama (not 360) is super laggy, but works.
Big thanks for the share, I was really waiting for it!

P20 pro's camera is great enough. A gcam port is just useless imo.

How is the Gcam App?

Let's be honest the 7 Pro is not a very good camera right now. We all know with OnePlus it will take a few updates to get the camera where we want it. I was wondering if the Gcam apk is a better alternative right now or is it still in development for the 7Pro??
Don't know about you guys, but I been taking really good photos with it. Stock app and not even Nightscape.

There is a gcam thread further down the page.
The camera is brilliant, came from Huawei P20 Pro and did a blind test between them for some friends. The Huawei scored 0.

Run a command to make snapchat stay open while in the app?

Hi!
So i got the OP7 pro like 3 weeks ago, and everytime the camera goes up i feel sorry and afraid that some day it wont go up again.
I use snapchat everyday, a lot... So to get the camera to go up and down wont last so long since it is rated to 300 000 times, i know it is only a rating and it wont light on fire or explode the 300 001 time. But however i ask you guys if there is possible to run a command, use a app, tweak a setting, u name it. To make the camera stay open when i am in snapchat, both when i use the front camera and when i am watching stories and chatting with friends. When i turn the camera i want it to go down of course.
Thanks everyone!

Basically impossible I guess, since snapchat only uses the camera api when on the main screen. You would have to mod snapchat to achieve that.

Thank u for answering! So unless snapchat releases a update that makes you turn off/on this "feature" it would be impossible?

Just close snapchat with it using the rear-facing camera, next time you open it will use the rear-facing and not pop up the front-facing camera.
xposed is only way to mod Snapchat

It does this with other apps like Kik as well. Probably need an Xposed module to stop the front cam from popping up unless it needs access to it.
