(Great News)Xiaomi offically supporting Gcam from 8.11.8 and above

So here is the good news guys Xiaomi has now realised that google has much more developer resources to built better camra apps and alogrithem and that is why it is being said they are offically adding Hal3 and API2 supports from8.11.8 this rom is in close beta now but that means in future updates we can see native gcam support...
Which in other term means just installing or side loading the gcam app will be sufficient for gcam to work...
Here is the source of the news
https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/11/...om-opens-doors-for-google-camera-app-support/

Good to know.

Please. Carefully read the news before posting such thread.
"The MIUI 10 update has extended support for HAL3/Camera2API which is required by Google Camera app to run on any Android device."
Is not :
"We will support native gcam app"
But more like :
"Porting gcam will be simpler"

Good information!!! but before posting some thread this should be on the XIOAMI POCO F1 GUIDES , NEWS , DISCUSSION. Thanks

whats the difference? you should read it with open eyes I guess.

Noob question: with this, will Gcam be able to make use of the second camera? Or simply Gcam isn't made with this purpose and only use the main camera (as pixel phones only have one)?

Poco Always had camera api2 enabled, no big news for us

Now we 'only' need 60fps video recording....

It means you can't install official gcam from playstore. If you install the official version, it won't work. But it will be easier for developer to make it work for Poco.
If it's really natively supported, then some features will be disabled. Do you really think google will give their cam tech freely? They want you to buy their phones. While the ported version will have the features enabled.

For poco it was available out of the box , they enabled cam2api for all xiaomi devices now :good: ✌

PETITION: Full Camera API2 support for our XZ Premium

So even with Android 9.0 Pie we still don't have RAW compatibility for our phone, and that would help a lot to catch better pictures and use different apps at theyr fullest. Please sign this petition and share it!

done

It should not be that hard to gain RAW since we have legacy HAL3. Its not a hardware limit just software limited. Think i will add this with my next Patch...

Done! Anything to get Sony to pull their head out of their [email protected]! I have an absolute disgust with companies limit their products on purpose via software, when the hardware is completely capable of more and some!

Oh thanks for letting me know! It should be less hard in this case. Possible that a simple build.prop edit with a added Permission does the job. I will test that once my patch is booting on .306. I think SONY has just not added a little Part to disable this Feature. I just wonder why since it was working fine for Me on AOSP with My Patch and everything else worked too like HDR+ on GCam Port by Arnova... So... Give Me a while and it will be solved
More Infos can be found here: https://source.android.com/devices/camera/versioning
This Part is important:
The supported hardware level of the device, as well as the specific Camera API2 capabilities it supports, are available as the following feature flags to allow Google Play filtering of Camera API2 camera apps.
android.hardware.camera.hardware_level.full
android.hardware.camera.capability.raw
android.hardware.camera.capability.manual_sensor
android.hardware.camera.capability.manual_post_processing
By adding these Permissions should it at least be available as Option in Apps. Additional can it be added to the build.prop. Example Lines:

Working Gcam with motion photo

Did someone managed to find fully working apk with motion photos? I really love the way they add more personality and story to photos. The problem I have currently is that google photos crashes when playing some (around 20%) motion photos taken from most of the gcam versions. The only app that makes all photos stable is prehistoric 1.1 gcam. I had the same problem on oneplus 6t. Can You help? Thanks in advance.

Did this really need it's own thread since there's already a thread for GCam? Your thread title also isn't a question, that makes it look like it's offering a solution.

I tried posting like this on telegram groups, but no one really cared for this niche feature and no one replied... If this thread is a major problem it can be deleted. However if someone do please reply.

Google Camera OnePlus 7 Pro [Pie and Q]

Hello everyone, I am creating this thread to provide the stable and beta builds of gcam, to avoid confusion and to keep the forums clean.
Thank you @S4turno(Celso) for hosting, mirroring, translating and sharing all a to z Gcam..
Special Thanks to @Arnova8G2for all his support and hardwork !!!!

HOW TO USE XML-
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/settings09/
To use XML in GCAM7, create a folder as "GCam" and then, create a new folder in "GCam" as "Configs7", and place the gcam 7 compatible xml and then double tap the area around the shutter button, then restore the xml !!

Is that.....is that Comic Sans?!?

So you asked the mods to close your old thread because there was proof of you kanging and a day later you decide to start a new thread? What's the point? It's not like people will just magically forget because you changed the title a bit. Just ask the mods to reopen the old one or let someone else take over who doesn't use it to promote his own telegram because he got blocked from the official one.

The author of this thread is not the developer of gcam ports or has anything to do with it. He just creates countless duplicated post (there is already many gcam threads active) and steals xml configs putting his name on them. Another fun fact is that he has countless fake telegram accounts and is obsessed with gcam because devs tried to teach them and he doesn't know the basics. Is a frustrated spammer wannabe. Thread reported as a duplicated one (as the last one which got closed)
Please don't spread misinformation. Your weird gcam obsession has already gone too far. Best of luck.

I have installed the version 7, but cannot see AstroPhotography? How do I enable it?

Scroll through his previous thread if you're looking for evidence. He's not trying to help people. Helping people would be redirecting to the work of others with some info. What he did was rename other peoples work and posting it as his. No need to argue, it's a proven fact.

Hi OP,
I notice that you have a previous thread with almost same content. You should consider to continue that thread instead of making a new one.
I will close this one for now and you could request to re-open the other thread.

Post your best GCAM pictures here!!

Hi all,
I've been searching and searching on Google, Reddit, and Youtube for some good sample photos, and it is difficult to find relevant information so I thought I'd start this thread to keep all GCAM related photos in one place. Please try to keep chit chat to a minimum, since the purpose of this thread is to look at "END RESULTS" (pictures), of different phones with GCAM installed. Please do NOT post pics if they are not from GCAM.
Please state the following information:
1) Phone Name:
2) Gcam Version:
3) Edits: (e.g. Snapshot, Lightroom etc... optional info.)

1. Oneplus 3T
2. Not sure... was the only one that worked after trying like 5
3. None
-edit- Meh, I guess I missed "best" and posted "crappy samples" instead... sry.
