how do I get astrophotography mode on 3a? - Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers

So I've played around with the camera and I could not find astrophotography mode, so I installed a separate version 7.3 apk, and even that doesn't have it. I've tried shooting the sky.at night thinking maybe it automatically detects n night mode, but nothing happened Any help would be greatly appreciated

You cannot hand hold the camera. It needs to be on a tripod or other firm foundation. Then put it into night mode and if it is dark enough, the camera will automatically go into astrology mode.

Lg g3 manual camera mode ...nextbit app

It"s a app from. Nextbit port by ninnix96..i found that it has manual camera mode.
Working:
In the Cross hair mode you can set your own focus point.
Other wise the Iso, Ev and White balance is working good.
Pinch to Zoom is working.
Bug: Manual Focus is no different then Auto mode.
the default resolution on back camera was set to 0 Mpixel. It was easy to just chose 13 Mpixel to get it right.
When restarting the app all settings is lost. No memmorh from last time used.
Thanks to xda member tissot for knowing us what is working and what is not.

One problem that where easy to fix was that the default resolution on back camera was set to 0 Mpixel. It was easy to just chose 13 Mpixel to get it right.
When restarting the app all settings is lost. No memmorh from ladt time used.

Burst Mode?

Hello everyone,
Is burst mode available on the XZP? I cannot seem to find it, even though "Timeshift Burst", which I believe was Sony's burst mode in older devices, seems to be installed according to the Play Store.
it's been replaced by Predictive Capture which you can enable in camera settings and which will trigger automatically when the phone detects movement while you're focusing camera and preparing for taking a pic.

I noticed that feature kick in a couple times, however it is nowhere as convenient as a manually operated function in most scenarios. Is there any way I can manually take a burst of pictures or am I out of luck?

Disable HDR Auto (Stock Pixel Camera App)

I did some searches so I hope this has not been covered yet... but I am new to the pixel phones and I have heard how great they are... so I was excited to take some pictures of my kids and my cousin.. however most of them came out blurry... I thought maybe the skin that came on the phone may have been interfering but after removing it saw the same issue... so after doing some digging.
I found that the HDR mode slows the shutter speed and can cause action shots to suffer... so i've been turning off HDR mode... but I noticed that it always defaults to HDR Auto when i go into the camera app and I did not see a setting to turn this off...
QUESTION: Is there a way to change the default camera mode on the stock pixel camera app?
Thank you!

Very simple. Click on that hdr+ auto sign and choose hdr off after expansion
It's a stupid decision made by Google to make it default to HDR auto on the Pixel 1 phones. The nexus phones and as far as I know the Pixel 2 generation do not have this behavior. Do not know of any mods which have bit through this problem either.

could you explain this in more detail? thanks!
I turn off hdr+ and it stays off for me.
using arnovas gcam mod but iirc this was the behavior on stock.
so i wonder if that mod helps keep the changes.. mine still continues to default to HDR + Auto each time I go back into the camera..

My completely stock Pixel XL does this.

Same happens with the NightEnabled_GoogleCamera_6.1.013_cstark27.apk.
You can turn HDR off but when the app restarts the setting is AUTO.
This must be controlled by the phone I assume, not the app itself.
Has anyone fixed this?

How to turn off Auto Portrait mode in Honor Play

Hi Guys, I am using stock camera and I am recently upgraded to Android 9.0 The problem I am facing is whenever camera detect faces, it automatically goes into Portrait mode. This is annoying especially in night time when shooting under artificial lighting condition. While taking group photos, its unnecessarily blurs the background and edge detection is also not good.
I would like camera to take normal photos not Portrait. I have checked all settings but there is no way I can disable it. Really hoping I get my working GCAM as it was working on Android 8.2, till then have to use stock camera

You can turn off "bokeh" from here, maybe will be better?

[GCam] Camera and video mode not working

Hi everyone,
So I have finally found the working (almost) GCam for Blackview BV9800Pro. Tried all developers apps and I found that this app https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/Gcam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.6-Fu24_5Lens-02b-A10.apk or any other by @fu24 which has "A10" at the end does not crash.
I am able to shoot panoramic, lens blur and photosphere images. However, in camera mode no photo is shkt is made when I click shotter button, it acts like it captured image, but there ia no image in galery. Also, when I switch to video mode the app crashes. Portrait mode and nightshot also does not seem to work...
P.S, when I go to this app settings -> about, it says that this app is based on MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e.
I have tried to install this one just to check maybe this one works, but got message "app was not installed".
Ideas?
Have anyone faced such issue or have an idea what could be wrong? Maybe GCam developer could take a look at this issue?

The same to You? Have You tried any other GCam app?
Whenever I try to record a video then a error shows up, "cannot record video, close video mode and try again".
