Why don't you make a bounty thread ? It will be lot easier of all people to contribute there. We want a perfect google camera with pixel 2 as model alsong with pixel 2 algorithm with all things working. Also one more thing can a developer implement the same potrait mode as pixel 2 with dual pixel technology of s9. I am taking about rear camera potrait of pixel 2 which blurs the background way way more than the front camera algorithm

If you need portrait mode, maybe this apk will work on s9+ too.
On my S9 I'm using the apk from here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w__75KsBFJlqjziH1UFABelnRdGhI49Y/view
coming from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/themes/google-camera-mod-galaxy-s9-sm-g960f-ds-t3772791
Working portrait mode and photo sphere for main camera. quite stable with the mentioned settings: model to nexus 6 and enable portrait mode all models, other settings on default.
I tried some different apks, but kept this one for stable portrait or photo sphere shots

Adobe Lightroom CC Mobile camera with HDR support on S9+
Hi there,
Is anyone else using Adobe Ligthroom CC mobile app on Exynos S9+ as an alternative to GCAM for HDR photos?
It's free and supports HDR capture on S9/S9+ as part of tech preview.
All you need to do is enable HDR capture mode in options.
Results are stunning both GCAM and LR camera and they both make far better HDR photos compared to Samsung stock app.
I have stable version of GCAM 5.1.018.177470874 but color tinting is ruining the low light photos. This is not a problem with LR cam.

The only issue I found so far is that it always uses the camera primary rear camera with f/1.5 regardless of the lightning conditions. Same issue as with GCAM.

Which settings should be used for "non portrait" version mentioned in OP? Camera opens but shows a blank screen. Any changes to settings makes app close

What is Google Camera (AKA GCam)?
Google Camera is the camera app for the Google Nexus and Google Pixel phones. It is not designed or intended to be run on other phones.
Installation instructions
1 - Click the GCam Finder Link and type /start
2 - Browse the bot by selecting your brand and model.
3 - Download the APK and XML
4 - Load the XML
DOWNLOADS
Moderator strngst doesn't allow telegram links. Probably only from Ad-free (paid) members.
ALTERNATIVE LINKS
Nikita v2.0 APK
XML by Dennis
(READ EVERYTHING BELOW BEFORE ASKING SOMETHING)
How to Load XML's?
(XML's are config files that include all the settings tweaked for a device.
Therefore all the configs are based on personal taste which may suit you or not, that's why it's important for you to try them and use whatever you like most.)
Copy the XML file and paste it into:
(GCam 7) Internal Storage > GCam/Configs7
(IF THOSE FOLDERS DON'T EXIST, CREATE THEM)
To Load a XML open GCam, Double Click on a black area around the shutter button, select the XML Downloaded
and then click on "Restore".)
Your Photos come too dark?
Tap the screen when taking a photo and slide up and down the finger to increase/decrease the exposure of your photo.
This applies to Front and Back Camera(s).
CHOOSE BETWEEN HDR+ AND HDR+ENHANCED
HDR aka (High Dynamic Range) increases the Dynamic Range, the difference between details in the darkest parts of the picture and not washing out in the brightest parts.
HDR+ is just a larger range on this and HDR+ Enhanced even larger again. Basically the phone takes a range of pictures and it combines the underexposed bright parts and the overexposed dark parts into one picture.
If you leave it set to Enhanced, it will almost always give you the best effects and image quality as it gives itself a little longer time to bring together the image.
The only times usually to use HDR+ is when your needing quick snaps of a moving object or if you want a faster shutter image.
SWITCH BETWEEN CAMERAS

THANKS TO @Urnyx05 @Arnova8G2 @S4turno​

Thx for sharing!

Thanks
Thanks for sharing. I will try

Thx a lot

Thanks for sharing sir

I'm on the fence choosing between mi 10 ultra and the pixel 5. Would be great to see some day and low light pics here. I wonder how the Mi10 ultra handles Gcam as in shutter lag after pressing the button, ability to "tap to focus", how fast it processes pictures, and if there is some photo quality drawbacks as purple grain for instance. The stock mi 10 ultra has too much "butification" and skin smoothening for my liking.

Funny guy this strngst.

Can anyone confirm that all features of this Gcam works on all four cameras on the Mi 10 Ultra?

Yep. There are 4 "zooms" to choose from, and each are using the specific lenses (verified by covering the camera with fingers).
Unfortunately the tele lens doesn't go to 120x zoom.

if you really want to zoom that far with gcam, try the Wichaya port; you can use the 5x lens and then set the digital zoom up to 100x more -- recommend not going past 30x digital zoom since the viewfinder doesn't show it, but still that's 150x total

Dennis XML file is pretty good, but sadly extremely buggy :/ hope there will be other XML files in the future

3 Questions:
- Does this mean that the default camera will be replaced with GCam?
- What if I want to delete GCam completely. Can all this be undone?
- Is it better than the Stock Camera?

It's simply a standalone app, it will not replace your system camera app.
You can use one or the other as you see fit and uninstall GCam normally at any point.
From my testing, I can't see it as a direct upgrade over the stock camera app, it may just be that Google's post-processing can produce better results in certain situations.
However, it becomes apparent that GCam doesn't natively support this phone, some features of the stock camera are outright missing, such as: 8k or 960fps video, 120x zoom and more
Personally, I prefer the original stock camera app (from the original chinese ROM).

New Nikita GCam update is released with few fixes, when tested with this Dennie's Config XML its giving pinkish overlay for all photos.

Fixed the issue by using the latest Config xml

Just to provide a clear update to available GCam ports and their respective configurations, saving you the need to search through the Telegram GCam group for Mi 10 / Pro / Ultra.
Available ports for the Mi 10 Ultra:
1. Nikita GCam
2. Wichaya GCam
Available configs for the Mi 10 Ultra: see attachments
Both port versions are the latest at the time of writing and they work well with the respective config files (made by Dennis) - tested them out myself.

It's really a matter of personal taste. I liked the Nikita port a bit better.
Give both a shot and you'll see for yourself.

Thanks for sharing. The quality is very good on closer objects but if I take pictures and focus on a specific object in the distance,I just get blurry image and it takes really long to focus. Other than this, it's working really good

The updated Nikita 1.9 Gcam with XML by Dennis is really awesome: Downloaded both from: https://www.miscw.com/download-and-...-mi-10-ultra-updated-15th-nov-2020-32394.html

Google Camera Port
Stable versions and configs for the OnePlus 8T.​
While quality on mobile devices has improved a lot in the past few years, Google Camera is often able to produce more detailed photos with better dynamic range. Let's use this thread to compile good/stable GCam versions for the OnePlus 8T.
Features:
- HDR+ Enhanced, Night Mode, Astrophotography, Portrait Mode, Timelapse, Motion Photos, Lens Blur, Panorama, Photo Sphere, Photobooth, Motion tracking.
- Video, Timelapse, Slow motion.
- All auxiliary cameras work, except the depth camera.
- AR Playground/Stickers (follow this guide).
Bugs:
- Video quality is better on the stock camera, specially video stabilisation and slow motion.
- Due to OnePlus' decision to restrict access of 3rd party apps to the extra cameras on Android 11, you'll need to use specific "package names" (eg: use the links on this thread). Some cameras (eg: front wide) may still not be available even with the right apk.
How to:
1. Download APK (pick the first one if in doubt).
2. Download config file (often not required, but may help with quality).
3. Install APK file.
4. Load config file.
A short video tutorial is available for new users.
Downloads:
Some notes:
- WARNING: On Android 11, you need to use the "snapcam" package in order to use all cameras.
- = Recommended version.
- To avoid issues when viewing media from inside GCam, install the Google Photos app (can be used without uploads/Google Account).

Keep in mind that this is still a new base and lacks the features and stability of older versions. I wouldn't use it as the main camera app.

Can't wait to see how this compares!

Config files are not updated for Nikita v2. 0 and oneplus 8T....
But everything looks nice in Wicharya snap apk...

Note: Configs from one version usually work well on the next one. A config from Nikita's 1.8 should work on 2.0 without any issues.

Is there a way to view media from GCam without installing Google Photos? I love GCam but I would like to avoid Google Photos. I heard there was an option in dev called "camera.use_photos" but I can't find it.

There are lots of versions that work on OnePlus phones, so it's normal not to list all apks. It can be confusing for new users.
Then there's the GCam base. Nikita is based on Arnova's version (or at least relies on a lot of code), so when suggesting one, you may not have to suggest the other. Same with Wichaya (based on Urnyx's version).

Google removed the internal gallery with GCam 7.3, so you'll need Google Photos or an external gallery. It can be the default one on your phone, but not all gallery apps deal with the processing delay very well and it can be annoying to see the last picture.
Explore the settings menu of the app you're using and try to find the setting to use a 3rd party gallery. Then, when viewing a picture/video from inside GCam, Android should ask you which gallery you want to use.
I use Gallery Go as it works better than Google Photos for me. It's also from Google, but it doesn't have any of the login/upload stuff.

I've downloaded 15 different GCam apps and XML's, uploaded photos to compare them to google drive. Please let me know which one looks best.
Also, I've started a Facebook Group for OP8T GCam discussion. Please join!

That's the one I tried really many times. Snapchat version.
(I also tried some of the others with nu luck)
I have installed the xml file and can choose it.
When I press wide, the screen turn black and the app close down after a few seconds.
Main camera works.
I think, maybe I'm wrong? that it works on 8 pro, or something, be course I can choose tele and macro. (If I do that, same happens as when I try to use wide)
I also tried to change what camera to use in settings.

GCam Collection, Configs & Discussion

​This is a collection of working Google Cameras (GCams) for the Galaxy A20 & A20e.
This thread is not in its final state and will be updated over time. If you want to add/edit something, feel free to tell me.
Important​All of the following GCams require to enable RAW Capture with this Magisk module.
This shouldn't be required on recent versions of Eureka ROMs. To check whether you need the module or not, download the Camera2 API Probe app. If the "Hardware Support Level" is set to "FULL" and "RAW capture" is available, you don't need to install it.

}
If you don't enable RAW Capture, you'll get a black screen and only video recording will work.
GCams​BSG's MGC 8.1​Download (I suggest you to download the com.samsung.android.scan3d version)
Advantages:
Very stable, handles all the cameras without any problems
LOTS of configurations, each camera module can have different settings
Disadvantages:
Slow performance, but this is expected in our low-end phone. However, other GCams are a little faster, specially when switching between modes (photo, video recording, night sight...)
Slow Motion doesn't work
Motion Tracking doesn't work
Astrophotography doesn't work
Configs:
@TBM13's config: Enables the wide camera and disables the zoomed front camera. On the back camera, increases sharpness, sets correct AWB model and enables motion photo. Download
@SerbianGeek 's config: Increases contrast and makes colors more vivid. Download
Tutorials:
Enable wide camera
Remember that your ROM needs to expose it. For more information check the FAQ below.
Go to Settings->Modules>White list then type 50 , press Ok and restart the app
Enable motion photos
Go to Settings->Global and enable "Motion Photo"
Go to Settings->Modules->Back (1.0) and set "Module hardware level" to "Level 3". This will make Motion Photo work on the back camera.
If you want to enable Motion Photo on other camera modules, repeat this same process on them.

FAQ / Issues​Black screen. Only video recording works​Make sure you installed the Magisk module to enable RAW Capture.
​Sometimes the phone lags / freezes / reboots while using GCam​This happens to me quite a lot. Sometimes the phone freezes and I have to reboot it holding volume down + power key, and other times it reboots itself. This is most likely a software issue on our camera library, and nothing can be done for now.
Closing all other apps before opening GCam seems to help a lot with both the overall performance and stability, so I suggest to do this.
Wide camera is not detected / doesn't appear​Your ROM needs to expose it. You can check this using the Camera2 API Probe app: if it's being exposed, you should see a camera with ID 50 at the bottom of the list.
Additionally, some GCams also require to change some setting.
How to expose the wide camera?​If your ROM doesn't expose the wide camera, as far as I know nothing can be done.
However, if you are using PHH's AOSP GSI or any other based on it (like LineageOS GSI, Pixel Experience GSI, etc.), you can expose it by going to Settings->PHH Treble Settings->Samsung Features-> Tick "Enable access to all cameras" and reboot.
Photos aren't saving when HDR is enabled​This seems to be an issue in newer GCams, like in BSG's GCams newer than 8.1.
I haven't found a fix for this.
Night sight photos are pinkish and blurry​This seems to be a common issue in all GCams.
A workaround is to lock AF/AE, which can be done by pressing any part of the screen to focus and then pressing the lock that appears at the top right.
This needs to be done every time before you take a photo with Night Sight.
Slow motion doesn't work!​I haven't found any GCam with working slow motion as of now. Seems like our phone just doesn't support it.

do you have a config file for a20 ?

How do I download? And which APK to download? Is it the "googlecameng" APK? After I click the APK it says "you are trying to access a temporary link."

Not right now. I will soon add two (mine, which just makes it easier to get the wide camera to appear, and another guy's config which modifies colors and contrast).

Yeah, they are all the same. I don't know why you're getting that message. What browser are you using?

Thanks!

Thank you!

I have cleaned the thread a little bit and also uploaded my config for BSG's 8.1 GCam. Most of its changes are on the back camera, as I made it for personal use and I don't really use the front and wide cameras. It'll probably be updated over time, when that happens I'll try to notify it by commething here.

[GCAM CONFIG] cpkelley94 GCam 8 Config for Lineage/AOSP ROMs

cpkelley94 OP8T Google Camera Config for Greatness 8.2 on Lineage/AOSP ROMs​
About​Hi everyone!
I recently purchased an OP8T and switched over to LineageOS 18.1 and I am loving the experience; however, I lost the OOS Cam in the process (which wasn't very good anyway in my opinion). I had previously used GCam on my OP3T and was able to get wonderful photos consistently. However, I wasn't quite happy with the experience of GCam on OP8T. A lot of fundamental work has been put into the base configs by others (big thanks to enerGy!), but I wasn't quite happy with the photos I was getting from these configs, so I am building my own, starting from enerGy as a base.
I am continuing to work on improving this config over time and will post updates periodically with a changelog complete to the best of my ability.
Features​
All major cameras working (Main, Ultrawide, Macro, FFC) with an easy toggle in the app (Macro does not work on some AOSP ROMs)
Natural saturation profile and exposure indoors and outdoors (my preference for saturation profile is somewhere between the Pixel and Samsung Galaxy)
Zoom slider that auto-hides
Night Sight, Portrait mode, Sunset mode, Astrophotography, Video with stabilization, Slow Motion video working
Strong auto-focus with manual option by selecting a position in the viewfinder, object tracking enabled
Known Issues​
Macro does not work on some AOSP ROMs
Because of the way RAM Patcher is implemented, the saturation profile of the FFC is currently tied to the back cam that is currently selected (Main, Ultra, or Macro). For best selfie results, switch to the Macro cam (if available) before flipping to the FFC.
Main camera is still locked to 12 MP binning. Working on seeing if this can be fixed via Magisk module.
Video quality currently isn't as strong as OOS Cam.
Note about OOS vs. Lineage/AOSP​Similarly to the OP7 series, it looks like various configs and registers have been implemented by OnePlus in OOS to improve photo quality in the OOS Camera on OP8T. However, these registers interfere with the quality of photos in GCam. In my experience, the photos I get from this config and GCam on LineageOS surpass the quality of OOS Cam, but your preferences may be different. This also means that this config is tuned for parameters in AOSP/Lineage ROMS and may not achieve optimal results on OOS or ROMs where OOS Cam is enabled. Let me know your experience.
EDIT 07/12/2022: It appears that the availability of the Macro camera to GCam is ROM-dependent. Macro is confirmed to work on LineageOS 18.1, but has been reported to crash in ArrowOS and SparkOS. If you are on an AOSP ROM and the Macro does or does not work for you, please feel free to report either in this thread or by DM. Thank you!
My Setup​I have only tested this config on my own device, info here:
Variant: KB2007 (T-Mobile)
Firmware: KB2005 (latest A11)
Android version: 11
ROM: LineageOS 18.1
GCam: GCam8.2.204_Greatness.211115.1033Release_Snap.apk
I expect this config to work well across many OP8T device configurations, but if you have a different device setup and this config does or does not work well for you, please let me know!
Installation Instructions​
Download and install GCam 8.2 from Greatness. The version I use is available here. Be sure to download the Snapcam version (org.codeaurora.snapcam).
Download the config available in this post and place it in /sdcard/GCam/Configs8. Create these directories if they do not already exist.
Open GCam and double tap on the black region below the viewfinder to open the config selection menu. Choose this config and tap Restore.
Enjoy!
Acknowledgments​Big thanks to enerGy for the starting config and all the GCam porters for their tireless work. And thanks to you for trying this out!
Version Information​Current config version: v2
GCam version: Greatness 8.2.204

Thank you for sharing this. Does the app crash when you open the Macro camera, or after you take a photo? Are you able to take any photos with Macro without it crashing, or does it crash every time?
How is the performance with the other cams?

This is working great on LinageOS 18.1, thanks alot for the contribution!! Lovely pictures.
Can't wait for a Magisk module, for the limitation of 12MP.
I also tried with the updated Gcam apk, and can't see any issues in the application. How come you use the older version?

Great to hear it works for you on the new APK. No specific reason I haven't updated my app, just haven't had time to test the new version and I have been sticking with what I know works for now.

It looks cool, but unfortunately the app crashes when I select the first lens from the bottom. I also tried to activate macro mode in the settings (it was not enabled by default) and the same happens, the application shuts down.
I recorded what it looks like:

The same thing happened to me as well. Everything else is pretty good, but the macro lens doesn't seem to work properly, and the camera app crashes.

Config version v2 released, available in OP (07/12/2022):
Increased saturation for Main and UW
Balanced RGB color profile for Main and UW

Thanks so much for reporting this and for the recording. I have updated the OP to reflect that Macro appears to be unavailable to GCam in some AOSP ROMs. Macro has been working well for me in LineageOS 18.1.
I anticipate this issue will require more than just a config change to fix, but I will look into it.

I needed to enable the Macro lens in the settings as Camera 3, but then it worked. It takes pictures and focusses properly, although the Pics are a bit grainy (but as far as I remember this was the case in OOS as well). However when I first enabled it Camera 3 was labeled as Tele, had to rename it. Camera 4 & 5 don't work and lead to an immediate crash. I guess there is no way to enable the real Tele Lens, because tapping on the 2x Button just seems to zoom in on the main camera.
I am on Arrow OS 12.1, latest OOS 11 Firmware and GCam8.2.204_Greatness.220428.0041Release_Snap.
Thanks for your work! This is by far the best config I found so far.

Usong Greatness Snap abd this XML, macro lense crashes gcam.

Thanks for your work... Your xml is amazing

Thank you for the info! Btw the OnePlus 8T does not have a telephoto lens-- only main, ultrawide, macro, and a small monochrome sensor.

Oh of course, you're right. Got confused by the amount of cameras

Macro is crashing on AOSP roms and human portraits having a dark skin tone. Waiting for update
