Hello,
Making a thread to make it easier for guys like me to know which roms support gcam or raw capture so that we XDA members could test maximum number of gcam ports to find the best working one.
Let's see what do we have.

Hi guys , in last week I looked for information about the ability of Android 5.0 Lollipop to capture RAW photos. Apparently Android allows us to shoot RAW photos.
And my favorite camera app has ability to take these photos - look here

Here are some samples

I look for information about our phones Note 3 but cant found nothing. For the moment only LG Nexus 5 and Motorola Nexus 6 support this cool feature.
Is there some ROM here in Android Development section that supports capturing photos in RAW.
Would be happy if some developer deal with it :highfive:
Cheers !
I'm interested in this as well, there seems to be an app for the Nexus 5 and 6 that can do .raw with Lollipop. The Note 3 should definitely be able to, all all we need is someone with the know how tho make an app that can do it.
Samsung didn't included the needed API on his latest kernel. We will need the source first so devs can create their custom kernels with RAW support.

Shame Can't wait to see how much better the quality of pics are once we are able to do. raw.
Being able to shoot raw video would be a nice addition as well.

I know! That's why I always keep my Canon DSLR at hand. Can't even compare the quality of a photo taken by my note 3 and my DSLR in RAW
Hi guys, don't know if it's possible, is there any dev that could port HDR+ function of Nexus 6 (which has the same camera, with the addition of OIS) on our OPO???
There are many excellent camera for our device but i think that this could be a great added value for our device.

Only CM can do this because it requires updated lib files

HDR+ depends on full support of the new Android camera HAL (source). It is theoretically possible that we could have our own non-Google Camera version of HDR+ since our camera app apparently has direct control over shutter speed and ISO, but it would have to be written by Cyanogen from scratch since the Camera Next app is closed source. I think we have a better shot at getting full Camera2 support in the coming year than we do getting a custom version of HDR+.

Yeah, i've read that. Also Clear Image is a sort of HDR+ but results aren't as good as the original (they work in slight different way), in the original post i meant the porting of the whole official feature of Nexus 6 ( i don't know what have to be ported, maybe camera driver) to work with OPO. I also think that you're right, opo shot performances will be better with cm12s (they have rewritten camera driver to have camera2 support already in the first release, i read it on reddit...)
Hello, I hope this doesn't breaks the rules. I'm having troubles choosing the right Gcam port for my stock s7 edge exy, since the ones I tried were all laggy and buggy (freezes, force closes, etc.).
I do know there are many versions (where Gcam 5 seems to be faster and more reliable than 6, that indeed has more functions) what can you suggest me as a daily driver? What are the ones I should try?
Currently I'm using xgcam 0.25 by newwb. The colors are splendid, but there is a loooot of noise, and the app crashes very often
Up(?)
i am using Gcam Exynos 5.1.018.177624777 (idans) work best for me on both oreo and pie with Google AR stickers too

can't find a DL link, can you provide me it? why did you choose this version in particular?
i'm not really that interested in AR stickers; should I choose this version too anyway?

Try this telegram link, it will lead you to the
[S7/S8] Google camera support
You will find all latest versions of modded Gcam.
I choose this version because it's the latest stable version by idans in that group, but maybe it's now updated, you have to enter and see.
P.S there is a competitor version of this Gcam and can be installed separately so you can decide which one is best for you.
hey guys
i have tested many gcam for s7 edge exynos and currently using idan 4.7 test 2 gcam. do you know any port better than that?
Gcam port.
LGN2_bsg-test-8.1.apk
Works for Galaxy S7 Edge
Where can I find all these above mentioned gcam APKs?
Hi guys, I'm currently using LOS as daily, i love this rom. but the only thing is camera, I've tried every gcam and no one works on my phone. Ive come with idea if someone will port original camera from coloros to work on custom rom. it would be great if someone work on it. thanks anyway and i will look for it
I know that to make a stock camera for custom ROMs in difficult but not impossible. By the way, there is fix for gcam working in LOS made by user vetefan. works like a charm. But no gcam have eis, 60 fps, 4k, 48MP, macro, wide lens support. And in all gcams resolution is limited to 12 MP front and 4MP back camera, slow-mo. So gcam although makes nice night shots, cannot use efficiently our camera hardware. And the camera is one of the major assets of our R5Pro. That's why I end up in stock rom with magisk. So it would be major contribution to R5 Pro society if someone could get stock camera working on custom ROMs.
here fix for gcam in Los( thanks to vetefan):

Same here. Been looking into the issue but oppo cam app can't really be installed without it's libs outside color os environment. We've been trying a lot of things out and experimenting with the guys on telegram to make it work but without success so far. Stay tuned.
I got asked a lot about Which Gcam is the Best? Well, there is nothing like The 'BEST' Gcam for everyone!
The Best is subject to Personal Preferences - What you like best may be what I hate most but then,
The Question keeps coming and as someone who loves Gcam and has done loads of videos for it, that
question is so frequent you wonder if people hear your constant answer.
First, is there a Good Stable Gcam for my phone?
Then, is there a new update?
But what happens when there are several Stable and up to date
Gcam ports for your device, how do you choose the best from among The Best?
So I decided to pitch the two most stable Gcam 7.3 for Realme X2 Urnyx05 and Parrot043
Two top Gcam Porters! There is no winner or loser here but in the video below, you can get a few nuggets
that will aid your personal preference.
for now, Urnyx05 Gcam 7.3 seems to have a better point and shoot without any tweaking than
Parrot043. I just hope that Urnyx05 will port in more features as I have seen so much improvement
from the v1.1 till now v1.4 but on the other hand, Parrot043 has already ported more advanced features,
to the point that it can get Boring or confusing if you don't know how to tweak Gcam advanced settings so,
as you can see, it boils down to preference already.
These preferences even start from the porters themselves - what they feel is important or not may
likewise, be or not be important to you.
Keep it in mind that it takes a lot to port Gcam and these guys are not paid to do it so, give them the kudos
And once you found the porter that is likeminded to your preferences, you follow that Gcam.
Well, Watch the video and see how it panned out!
Any working gcam 7.3 for realme x2 (video, photo...) what's the best?

You can try UltraCam mode (UltraCVM) for realme x2. Its a working gcam mode, and for getting some better resolutions you have to play around the settings.
.
ask
Does it have a wide angle mode?
