So I noticed something strange after converting my phone from T-Mobile firmware to International firmware. Using Snapchat with the rear facing camera was working great (as far as Android devices go) on the T-Mobile firmware, and now that I have switched to the newest International firmware, the rear facing camera *only* seems to be doing the weird viewfinder hack it used prior to using Camera 1/Camera 2 API (no proper exposure leveling/auto-focus). The front facing camera performance is better. What gives, and has anyone else noticed this since the latest update? I find it odd especially since the camera application itself is vastly improved.

Maybe I'm not understanding you but I'm running basically the same phone and same software as you, T-Mobile with international 9.6.7.
I opened Snapchat and with the rear camera I focused on something 6 feet away and then I moved my hand back and forth in front of the camera and it's switched the focus fine.
while the build in cam is nice... still like the gcam. any version that works?
tried s10 port and it crashes
I've been using S10 Port no issues. Note 10 (-) snapdragon unlocked
I'm using the S10 port as well and everything seems to work except using HDR with the wide angle lens causes the app to crash on both 6.1 and 6.2.

Im also seeing the same crashing issue, its also not saving wide angle lens photos at all. Regular angle lens works fine.

I'm using the S10 Port and I doesn't give an option for a wide angle lens and any setting with the front facing option will keep crashing upon taking a picture. Everything else seems to work fine, including the night option. . I hope an apk comes out soon, as there is a significant difference in quality vs the default camera on the Note 10 +. After seeing the results, I don't even want to open the default camera. The amount of noise and non-focus is a turn off for me.

Yep same here. I installed the latest 6.2 GCam and while the camera doesn't crash on that version it also doesn't take any pics with the wide angle camera.

I've been using 1+ 7 Pro ports for the past month. Everything works afaik (aside from switching to telephoto manually). Many ports are available in Tele groups where Arnova, and other porters reside. Links to these groups can't be shared on the forum ofc, against the rules.
How can we get access? I have tried so many different version. I'm on Note10+ US Snapdragon.
I can't find anything that supports Wide Angle, Portrait, or RAW. All files come out in 600 resolution when using raw/dng.
Hi all,
I have no idea at all about this sort of thing. Assuming there's not a proprietary Samsung framework the Samsung camera app is dependent on, is it at all possible to port the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra/Note 20 Ultra Camera app the the Mi 10? Given the main camera module is much the same, would it not theoretically work?
Thanks,
K
Why though...?
gcam is miles and miles ahead ..

I disagree. I've used GCam with multiple XML files from here but the quality was never on par with the stock camera. Only the selfie camera seemed to benefit.

I assume you probably used old configs \ gcam versions?
Details wise, there is no comparison - gcam blows stock out of the water.
I do think that stock sometimes handle exposure \ colors better , but you can change gcam configurations to your liking.
No, I haven't used my own configs. As I said in my post I've used multiple XML files to load configs.
At 100% crop, the stock camera resolves much more fine detail than gcam.
EDIT: I used the latest versions linked in this thread.
I've since used the Burial version of the gcam app and I'm getting much better results although I'm not sure it blows the stock app out of the water. I'd still be interested to see how the Samsung camera app goes considering they share the same sensor and the Note 20 Ultra photos from the main camera are much better than the Mi 10 particularly in low light.

I can't download anything from that site. Linkvertise refuses to give me a link, even with all adblocks disabled and watching their stupid ads.

That site is trash. I tell you that I managed to download the apk, installed and use it. But you can't change between the rear cameras, you can't use the front camera (at leat I don't find a way to do it). So I'll keep using the Sammy camera and play a little more with pro mode.
This config works great on my S20 FE Exynos:- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fr2tTrKMKot_tJNp4wyyR6Vk-5hIXvP-/view?usp=sharing
Place the GCAM folder in your internal storage, open the GCAM app, double tap on the black area around the shutter button and select default.xml
**Please make sure you're using ZGCAM 6.1**
Night Sight is better than stock with a tripod.
I know this is for the S20FE Snapdragon but there is some info on config settings
[GCam] Google Camera for Galaxy S20 FE 5G | GCam 8.1 LATEST (cyanogenmods.org)
I've been playing around with this for a few days now. This is on the latest Wichaya apk which is still on 7.3 but it still works well for me:
Wichaya: GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v2.1_Wichaya_V3.1.1.apk
Download GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v2.1_Wichaya_V3.1.1.apk by Wichaya.

I've attached my config file for Snapdragon models. All lenses working with the correct label, selfie is showing the correct framing with no crop. Haven't tweaked many advanced features but for all intents and purposes the app is functioning as if it was made for this phone and I'm fairly pleased with the results. A few cons to this as it is not the latest GCam version and video is inferior but I tend to stick with the stock Samsung app for that.
Snapdragon only!
Have you tried Latest Arnova beta?Do you manage to make work auxialiary lens?I think quality is better with 8.1 version.
You can get tele working by setting tele id to 52. Wide and ultrawide are working oob.
If anyone has a good config for the latest arnova please do share. Snapdragon model. The ultrawide cam output is terrible and I can't tweak it, viewfinder is a bit blurry, autofocus only sosom telephoto takes a photo but gets stuck for a while on HDR+ processing. Sometimes the tele photo saves but it is really poor quality. Main cam works well. Still playing with the settings.
Trying to downloading
somebody posted a thread on reddit with a recommendation for a version of Arnova GCam and a link to both the apk and config.
it appears to be working with all cameras, I've only tested it briefly but if anyone is interested...

click the photo to visit the page... reddit links are strange lol.
Lol thanks yes looks like my config I posted in another thread.
in that case, thank you sir
*tip of the hat to you
EDIT: telephoto performance is abysmal for me. huge lag and what looks like digital zoom.
Here is my latest xml
I prefer a more natural look so have been trying to tone down the saturation a bit. Pretty happy with the results so far. Telephoto should work well.
Samsung S20 FE Snapdragon.

Do you have a snapdragon or trying to use it on exynos?

SD version, clicking on x2 or whatever it is makes the screen go black and stay that way until the app crashes in the background because I got bored waiting.

Weird. Maybe the XML didn't load properly. It shouldn't do that.
Planning on getting one of these two phones.
The performance is the same, just wanted to know more about the camera, which one has it better?

A30s has the same camera setup as A50, so i have some experience with it.
back camera has excellent quality, colors are great and HDR mode is good.
front camera is bad, i don't think it is related to the camera itself, couldnt get a GCAM to work on it, but expect it to be bad.
i kinda prefer the A30s, because its "recent" and has a upgraded camera setup from the A50.
