Gcam for Realms 5

This post is created to share the experience of using Gcam Mod on Realme 5. Mostly the versions of BSG for Mi8 or Poco F1 are also supported on our device, which is a good news. I have tried many of them and found that the version linked https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-80wps_h1Zg_e1ar7O3B3gu0xY_FMp2S/view?usp=drivesdk is working best for me.Almost everything is working. Kindly try the same and also other versions if you can from here https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/ give suggestions for the best stable Gcam version for our device. Kindly also share some samples in the link https://photos.app.goo.gl/qbk8cws4MbHL3SSi9 for others.
PS: - I have uploaded 4 photos 2 with phone camera 2 with Gcam mod using night sight and the difference is obvious as seen in the photos

Thanks man...
Nice thread..
I''ll download it

thank you sir

Gcam 7.2
Any new mod properly working on realme 5,plz let me know. Thanks

What doesn't work ( At least for me ) :
You cant use wide agle and macro lense.
60 fps video recording ( Refords 30 fps ).
Thaks for sharing this! HDR+ works wonderful!
Portrait mode Edge detection is horrible sometimes.
I wish 60 fps video recording would be supported.
Does anyone know a video recorder app that can record 60 fps on realme 5?

Hardware is not the same, I was under the same perception in A5 2020 and A9 2020
Even in A5 2020, there are two different suppliers of sensors depending upon region. Lower end version (CPH-1933) use 12MP sensor from Omnivision and higher end use Sony or Samsung (I don't remember exactly, but the exact sensor models are listed in a system xml file) 12MP sensor. (Sony IMX 386 I think while 2MP sensors are samsung's)

Working great https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam_6.2.030_N7P_test1.3a.apk

Is there a Google camera module for Realme 5?

7.3 partially working
installed and tested the MGC_7.3.020_RPII_v0f
- features working:
* taking photos in max resolution
* night mode
* videos in 30 or 60 fps
* portrait mode
- features not working:
* Shortcut to play videos does not work, playing from DCIM is totally fine though
* Slow motion does not respond and saves glitchy footage
* does not use the other lenses
So, that was my experience on that version

Hello all,
Is there a gcam mod for the Realme 5 after the Android 10/Realme UI update?
Thanks.

Hi, can this be used for the Realme 5i as well?

thanks

Hi everyone,
This is the most stable version of Gcam mod for Realme X tested on Android Q Custom Rom. All credits to Urnyx for the app. Tested all the features.
Pros:
1. Almost everything is working.
2. Zoom to 10x also works fine.
3. Night Sight working perfectly fine.
4. Portrait Mode working perfectly in both Front and Rear Camera
5. 1080P video recording is working fine, just change video recording settings to 4k in settings page.
Cons:
1. Slow Mo not working.
2. 60fps recording not working.
Download the latest version from the link below:

Link to original XDA Thread if you want to follow:

Is 48 MP camera supported ?

There's no 48mp option in this app.

thank you sir
but the portrait isn't making use of the second lens (depth lens) on Realme X
I tried taking portrait while covering the second lens and without covering, and the results were the same... though they were great

I am a casual photographer and I always find BSG Gcam to be superior to other ports. Pictures come out more detailed, sharp and crisp. I am not sure about panorama, wide angle, 10X 50X 100X zoom, moonlight sunlight etc as I do not use them. The only port which comes close to BSG is Arnova's gcam. But unfortunately, it's not available for Realme X.
P.S. Do you know all GCAM ports are based on BSG. He was the guy who started it all.

GCAM - Google Camera Mod

Has anyone tried using GCam on the Poco M3?
I didn't find any version with video working yet, however Wichaya's port (based on Urnyx05) seems to work for everything else, as long as you force-enable Google AWB.
Wichaya GCam APKs - Google Camera Port
Modified Google Camera app by Wichaya.
www.celsoazevedo.com

As a small update, I find Nikita's port a bit more stable for this device.
The video preview even works, but still unusable (result video is sped up, whatever the fps you set up). Same thing for night shots.
Like Wichaya's version, you need to turn on Google AWB if you don't want a completely green photo.
Nikita GCam APKs - Google Camera Port
Modified Google Camera app by Nikita.
www.celsoazevedo.com

Wichaya's Port kinda works. but it is still laggy.
I hope some developer can develop a much better port for Poco M3

Did you already tried the latest cstark27's gcam mod? And can you try the older P3v12.6_GoogleCamera_6.2.030 version? It's the best mod for my current device (Zenfone 4 with IMX362 sensor).
Also, I will be glad if you can tell me the camera sensors name that Poco M3 has. You can discover it using the app Device Info HW. Thank you!

That's technically the second link I posted, but a precise version of it.
However video does not work on this version for me, only the Camera Go one works.
As usual some weird things happens on MIUI devices, probably depending on global/EU...

Video works perfect for me. If you has change something on the configuration, back the original config.

Themes / Apps / Mods GCam for X3 Pro

Hi,
For those with the POCO X3 Pro, what is the best GCam that is currently available to use - most stable, with better quality, etc....
I have tested some GCams from X3 NFC, but is a shot in the dark - some work, but i think is room to improve in the quality (could be some settings/configs too).
Maybe someone here found a specific one that works better
EDIT: This is my opinion after a few months: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gcam-for-x3-pro.4256287/page-12#post-86486777

I also hope to have a good GCam soon. While Stock Cam seems good for video, I'm not happy with the photo quality: there seem to be some aggressive "beautify" settings and filters I could not deactivate yet. At least with my Redmi Note 7 on crDroid and GCam 7.4 I'm able to make much more satisfying photos.

The main camera is good, but of course GCam is always better
I have tested some Gcam versions and they seem to work - most only for photos and there still tweaks to be done... For vídeo yeah, don't use GCam at all.
But maybe someone found a config/version that works best

Since X3 Pro has the IMX582 main sensor I looked which other devices (from Xiaomi) have the same - see on deviceranks.com:
POCO M3 - xda GCam thread (Nikita 7.4.104 and Wichaya 1.8.3 mod dicussed)
XIAOMI MI 9T / XIAOMI REDMI K20 - xda GCam thread (URNYX) - GCam MIUI thread (Urnyx, Parrot with config hidynamic v12)
XIAOMI REDMI K40
Will try later.

I'm trying this:
NGCam_7.4.104-v2.0_eng.apk
drive.google.com
And it is working properly, thanks @ChriMo

This works like a charm!
Is even possible activate the extra sensors in the "Advance" setting. We can use the deph sensor, macro, wide and (of course) main sensor

Nice. I installed NGCam_7.4.104-v2.0_cam.apk (com.ngcam.camera) which should allow to try other GCams alongside. Here is the Nikita folder @ celsoazevedo - he already works on the 8.1 version.
The 7.4.104 version so far seems to work fine also for me. Unfortunately in the Config directory I could not find any model with the same main sensor, as I would expect some optimization might be possible.
I plan to compare to the Redmi Note 7 GCam pictures in the same conditions to have a comparison. I was strongly hoping the 48 MP IMX582 Exmor RS would provide at least the same experience as the 48 MP ISOCELL GM1 in the RN7, at least deviceranks.com lists it slightly better (#32 vs. #39). So far I'm not sure but still hope the combination with the powerful CPU allows a good experience. With my RN7 beside Night Pictures I'm pretty happy.

Some quick test NGCam 7.4.104 v2.0 VS Stock cam app.
This is just a quick test, no config, just shots after install.

Of course, night mode is still the best using NGCam.
But i actually prefer the Stock camera for regular photos - more saturated colors, but NGCam have more natural tones.

I downloaded the Gcam below and it works out of the box!
BSG: MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix
Download MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix by BSG.
www.celsoazevedo.com

In the Telegram Poco X3 Photography group
a) member Park Q claims Marco's 7.3_GCam_MJL_v4.3_Minilux.apk (2020-08-31, oneplus 6/6t) is optimized for 582 and 586 sensor. He has also posted two configuration XML files (Flat & Zoom)
b) member Team XKlaus claims MGC_8.1.101_A9 (BSG, 2021-03/04) allows 4k @ 60fps
Searching for "IMX582 celsoazevedo" I found the following:
UltraCVM_v4.apk (UltraM8, 2020-05-10, configs)
UltraCam_3.2.3.apk (UltraM8, 2020-02-19, configs)
UltraM8 bases off Urnyx05 or Arnova8G2 versions with additions and tunings ... with main focus on the IMX586 sensor (primary device Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro).
In Config Files for burial's GCam 7.2.x there is Xiaomi Mi A3 » mi-a3-x.j.b.-ver.1.xml which contains the string: Main Sensor: IMX582 (same as IMX586 without 4K and Stab
(Xiaomi Mi A3 has Sony IMX586 Exmor RS)
I need to look into this but share so we may find some basic optimization based on existing IMX582(586) configs what GCams might be good.
Just to clarify my focus:
a) good natural daylight main cam pictures (no oversharpening, no oversaturation, etc.)
b) 1080p 24fps EIS ExtraSmooth (Steady) Videos (no refocus, no pumping, no artefacts) possibly with UltraWide for less crop
c) Special Features like 1) Time Lapse 2) Slow motion 3) Night etc.
d) 4k 24fps EIS as good as possible like 1080p
I made a GSheet comparison: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...kpsmnix1jUWCr2SMdPl_wprc8/edit#gid=1775206814

You can use the 3 sensors, but only found in settings the main one havng specifc support.
I'm not sure what's the benefit though...
As I said, I'm a kind of newbie here So I tried to configure things to what made sense to me, like enabling pixel bining, but some might prefer to disable it to have pics with better definition...
Happy to hear feedback and suggestions, if we get a good xml file we could post it on Nikita folder @ celsoazevedo

In the Telegram Poco X3 Photography group there are a lot of XML files now mainly for
MGC by BSG (preferred by most it seems)
NGCam by Nikita
User P.A. likes CamStellar
Another user (can't find the post) stated Arnova is working on X3P optimization.
Preview of pics might only work after you change gallery settings in options.
Member Park Q, Suresh Dreamer and others stated that the basic color balance / white balance setup in the Xiaomi Firmware is bad and can not be fixed with GCam+XML or even with RAW. I also noticed a slight magenta shift/tint in pics (less in videos), which seems less "natural" then on my other smartphone cams. So with vidoes I'm happy, with Pics I have not found yet a "natural" outcome.

I have this version: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1500/
It is optimized for IMX582 sensor: Everything works perfectly. The best config is: (damm10-best-mi-9t-v4.xml)
You can find it under the link to Xiaomi Mi 9T / Redmi K20, which have the same sensor as Poco X3 Pro.

According to guys on Telegram, this is not on par with other ports.
NGCAM is still seen as best overall (especially in low light), MGC being a bit more natural in colors in good light conditions.
If some people are not on Telegram and want to get the XML files for NGCAM and MGC, they can be shared here too.

I tried different versions, including NGcam, and in each of them something didn't work and the application crashed. I'm really happy with this version, because it works without any problems and is very stable, including video. There are not unnecessarily many settings as in the new versions, which the average person does not understand anyway and was directly optimized for Redmi K 20 (40) and Mi 9T, which have the same sensor as Poco. Night mode also works great and the quality of the photos is much better than with stock cam. Just a minor edit: After trying different settings, I think, the most universal config I have the best experience with under different conditions, is this: AIO-Mevcetin-Urnyx05.xml
If someone wants to have the latest version, it's ok, but unfortunately at the cost of lower stability.

No issue if you prefer that build of course, was just trying to brdige discussions between Telegram and XDA
One clarification as well, I've not seen anyone trying to race for latest version, all comments are around functionalities and picture qualitiy.
Btw, MGC now has new XML with EIS enabled.

I like the "steady video" function in the Stock Cam v4.3 because it is very smooth even if with substantial crop.
GCam MGC 8.1.101 lets select from four video stabilisation modes: Standard, Locked (2xZoom), Active, Cinematic Pan (1/2 Speed muted) but none seems similar to Stock steady.
So I am seeking for a GCam which has similar smooth steady EIS as Stock.
For Photography because the lack of serious and comprehensive comparisons I'm still undecided what I prefer: Stock. MGC or another GCam. MGC at least seems to be the more "natural". NGC (haven't tried myself) seems to be better in low light but does color boost/saturation.

That's the GCam version I prefer to use anyway, thanks for the update. I would like to try out the XML, but it's not available on the MGC's download page.

Question Gcam working port?

Are there any working gcam ports for the mix fold 2?

I'd like to know also. I'm interested to see if SuperZoom gcam software works with these lenses since zoom is not the best by default. Thank you for any help.

Same here. Tried almost all the mod versions available and none worked. Would appreciate if anyone could share a successful case. Thanks!
