A review yesterday posted that they used the Google camera and results were much better. Question is if both cameras are being used

Here is a link To the one from the XDA Article just to make things easier.
And This is the latest version on the Russian thread that I saw.

Thanks. Another thread pointed to a v2.2 at this link . Not sure what changes there. Will continue to play with this.

What is the difference in the versions? Will things like auto HDR work?

I don't know the change, you'd have to reference the Russian forum and even with Google translate I haven't quite tracked the dialog. aHDR is working fine, based off another XDA thread the slow-motion camera isn't working.

Hey guys, sorry to give you a screenshot of the picture comparison but I'm a bit lazy today and forgot to turn off the geo-location tags. Hopefully i get some more shots in later this weekend and post back later.
I'm using the v1.4 the original GCAM app from the XDA article. I can't say that I trust the v2.2 from the Russian site at the moment so sorry again. If it gets updated and the XDA article says it was updated I'll be more willing to try the v2.2 app.
What you see is the Essential app on the left versus the GCAM app on the right. I prefer what I've seen from the Essential app but in actual usage the GCAM works much faster and believe it or not feels more stable. As you can see there is definitely a difference in picture quality especially around the glass and text. Mind you I'm coming from a Pixel XL so that is my frame of reference as far as what I should be expecting from both apps. From looking at the picture versus what my eye is seeing the GCAM is more true to my eye, however I find the light/dark balance more pleasing on the Essential app. Personally I really hope Essential gets it together because from what I've read the GCAM software doesn't make use of the monochromatic lens and I think that if someone can combine the best function of both apps we as the users would be the real winners.
If I can get more shots without the metadata in it I'll be sure to post them up. Otherwise I'm subscribed to this thread so I can keep up with the latest updates for the GCAM app.

I cannot get this to install for some reason. The when screen is unresponsive when I try tapping the install button.
Edit: toggling unknown sources again seemed to do the trick

Just messing around with my Essential camera between GCam 1.4 (aHDR first) and EP (HDR second)... You can clearly see the difference in low light...
Neither are great but GCam turned out better.
The next 2 are from my OnePlus 5...GCam 1.4 (aHDR third) and then OPO (aHDR last)

Man OPO looks worse (and even GCam is somehow worse on it as well...) also it looks like OPO goes to the pink side with Gcam but not its stock cam. The EP Cam just look bad all around lol.

So would you say that the Essential Phone w/Google Camera is better than the OnePlus 5 with either cam?

Honestly I don't think Essential is better. :-/
I think I'm going to return mine.

The download links are unable to locate mirrors so I cannot try either version of the camera app listed in this thread. Am I missing something or were these files already taken down?

Got mine 2 days ago and installed the 2.2 Gcam. Personally I don't notice too much difference but then again I'm a colorblind old man. Just had this happen when I opened the Essential Cam and a reboot fixed it. I haven't been able to reproduce it yet.

I tried the 4.4v with zero shutter lag that B-S-G had posted on another forum here. So far it seems to be working quite well, it's nice to have the google interface again and it seems to take better photos, though I'm terrible at photos in general so it's hard for me to tell.

The name is a misleading, the variant linked in the article is 1.4. "4.4" I believe refers to the Google versioning of the app, not the port versioning.

Just the Verizon 2.4.025 os working

any news?

Good morning, very very long time xda luker here, years in fact, so thought I would jump in and join this topic.
Obviously like most of us I've loved using the gcam port on my SM-A530F and now after the 9.0 update I had to go back to the stock samsung camera. So did a bit a of looking around and found this.
MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_1.2_test_fix_Exynos.apk
It works. Well I say works, it's extremely buggy, so maybe someone here with a little more knowledge than me can have a play around with it and hopefully (fingers crossed) get it usable.
I'm getting hard restarts when you take a second photo while hdr is processing and in low light conditions it will sometimes crash.
From what I've seen, though I could be wrong and my settings need a tweak but you can't use flash, you can't use front facing camera, and you can't enable motion photo.
Also sometimes when processing hdr it will freeze and you will have to force close and start again.
I'm only after a decent hdr+ back camera, I don't realy care that the front isn't working as to be honest the stock a8 camera is fine for a selfie etc.
Thanks guys, I hope this has helped a little or it might not help at all, but I thought I would share this as it's a version of gcam that doesn't crash on startup and does take photo's we'll sometimes it takes photos. ??

My friend, i found a gcam that works. It can take photos, but after every shot you need to change to video and back. Its zoran gcam. The thing is, the zgcam its just for donators. Look for the telegram group [Galaxy] Official Google Camera and ask for Egoist. He will explain you how to get into the zoran group.

Rear portrait works. Playground needs AR core. To be honest I don't think playground is something I wanna test, seems like a silly thing to me. Motion don't works.

The version I mentioned above does the same, you have to go to settings then back to photo before you can take another shot and also wait for hdr processing to finish.

Confirmed working on SM-G930F!
Can confirm this version of a gcam port works on the SM-G930F, I've not played with the settings yet but I can take photos without any problems!
Let me know if anyone has any settings tweaks to improve this.

gcam

Anyone please try gcam on OP7PRO & SHARE samples from both stock as well as images captured from gcam please

Check out this post in the Q&A section: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/help/gcam-mod-7-pro-t3930459 That seems to be where most of the activity is for gcam.

Did some comparisons here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/camera-comparison-gcam-vs-stock-t3931423

All seem working well exept the front facing camera where resolution is 4mp and 12 in portrait, also in portrait mode some underexposure and lack of focus.
I pm Arnova with same info, hope will have a new version soon.
I was thinking about open a telegram grp like s9 to be more convenient.

Anybody tried this one?

I found actually the Google Camera that was released for the OnePlus 6 works.
What I like about the Google Camera is the Augmented Reality, I would assume they work for the new OnePlus 7 Pro specific Google
Tried a newer APK, still does not run all the Playground content but otherwise is ok

Thanks guys. The mi9 gcam mod works flawlessly. I tried the R7pro mod, but it has a habit of freezing and capture delay at around 0.0017s

I made an xml to go with it.... Just place it in GCam/Configs then open gcam double tap the space between or below the shutter button to apply it.

What file sizes are you folks seeing with the cam pics? Stock or GCam.

Then lower the frame capture rate... It's gcam.... And it will only be slower like that in low light... With the way I have it set you will get good quick captures outdoor and slower but better quality indoor or low light situations without needing to use night sight.

how do you get playground working..i don't see that option?

Got everything to work with your setup but is there a reason the back cam is set to 8.3 megapixels?

Pics come out too Cool
So, I've tried these different mods, and while sharpness is better with them, I feel like the colors come out way too cool and not true to real life at all. Complete opposite of what I get with my Pixel 3XL. Anyone experiencing the same, or perhaps has gotten a GCAM mod they are really happy with?

Here are some example I took on my OP7P. I used gcam and stock camera. I have to say that the stock camera is pretty sad.
I love the phone, but I am very disappointed in the camera.
The night photos were taken with Nightsight on GCam and Nightscene on stock.
GCam seems to come out much cool indoors, not staying as true to the colors sometimes. Stock is definitely not capturing the details.

[SHARE][MOD][APP] Google Camera 7.0.009 with almost all functions working!

Hi there! I'm just sharing this Gcam version I accidentally bumped into on the port hub. This means I cannot provide any support or bugfix.
Tested and almost every aspect of it works except for slow motion and photo sphere.​
Tested and working:​
Front:​Selfie:​✓ normal shot​✓ normal shot​✓ normal video​✓ normal video​✓ night sight​✓ night sight​✓ portrait shot​✓ portrait shot​✓ lens blur​✓ lens blur​✓ time lapse
✓ panorama
✓ photo sphere​
Definitely not working:
✕ Slow motion
The picture quality pretty good but there is no 48 mp. I'd say 12 just like on the Pixel phones.
16:9 ratio resolution is: 2160x3840
4:3 ratio resolution is: 3000x4000
Further testing needed.

What? I was kind of frustrated how only 6.1 Gcam works on our new device so I was downloading all sorts of gcam versions from the gcam port hub. Before this one worked, I installed 12 gcam versions of Gcam 7+ and none of them worked. For 13th try this one worked. This has nothing to do with your post or whatever.

Ctc. Then why did u post thanks it works.
You know what, just leave it. These things are just discoveries which no one else should take credit of other than the developer. Huge shot out to the one who created it. Over and out with you.

Because that one worked? That's why I thanked. Still nevertheless I was disappointed how we only get 6.1 gcam while there are 7+ gcams out there so I started downloading 7+ gcam versions hoping one of them will work. I'm really in love with up to date stuff. So as I said I really stumbled upon this version and nothing it has to do with your share. Only that the version you shared was too incomplete for me and made me want a newer version. That's why I found this 7+ verison because the 6+ version didn't satisfy me. Why should I have mentioned your posts while your post barely had anything to do with me finding this working 7+ verison? It's not like you made that Gcam verison or I made this one. These are just shares and we share them so others will be able to use their camera to their fullest. It's not like I stole from you or anyone, or I took credits for anything.

Oh, sorry. I mistook you for someone else.
This was the only post that I saw about gcam for the device. I thought you were the OP of that thread. I didn't ever see your post with 7+ gcam. If I saw I wouldn't made a double with the same version. After seeing the 6.1 version I went to celzoalvedo or what site, I mean the port hub and started looking for a newer working version. I don't even know what's going on.
Indeed I thanked in that thread but for op's post, not yours I slipped over your version share. If I saw it, I wouldn't have downloaded 12+ versions from the port hub and saved myself from a lot of annoyances. Now I understand what you're talking about. Now I understand why you asked if I'm a developer, I guess. I was just happy that the 13th version of gcam I downloaded from the port hub worked and in that sudden spike of success/joy I shared on xda for others to use too. Sorry for being ignorant and not seeing your previous comment on that thread. I'd not even have made this thread if I saw your post.

Nah. For me on a 4:3 ratio it shots 1728x2304 pixel pictures. Which means 4 mp. Anyway I didn't really ever seen a gcam that is not limited for 12 mp back and 4 mp front camera sadly.

Try clearing the appdata and setting it to default again.Or try switching between the gcam default and medium saturation a few times. Coz mine also started out pretty desaturated but sort of corrected itself after fiddling a bit and restarting the app. I would have shown samples but its not letting me to.most probably because mines a new account.

Also I've found out the mods for poco work for our phone too.So whenever searching for gvam mods its better to search for poco f1.In the setting check the awb goggles for accurate colours

[S9+ Snapdragon] Working GCam by Burial

Long story short, I was messing around with a couple GCam by different developers and one by Burial that works amazing well for the S9+. I'm using the Sprint variant, so Snapdragon model.
I install the app like you would using any other app. When you first enter the GCam dont touch the different lens that appear, I think they're .06x, 1x and 2x. (These are aux lenses, dont enable them in the advanced settings either. )Changing those will cause the app to crash and you'll have to clear the app's data to get it working again. Soon enough those lenses will go away and you dont have to worry about accidentally hitting, at least that happened with me.
Mess around with the configs or upload your own. Keep in mind this version wasnt intended for the S9+, so there might be settings not meant for this device. Bugs may also exist, but I've yet to find any.

It's the Burial Gcam version C, the latest one.

Kinda hard for me to find a working for the Exynos, since I have a Snapdragon model. I did a quick google search and IDan has some working ones but they dont have night mode. You can always do what I did and research, try a couple apks until you find one that you like. There are existing threads for Exynos S9+ Gcams as well.

Strange, it works for me over several different phone.
Try this one: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-burial/
Its the top, one Version C. Most of these APKs are from the Google Camera Port Hub. Unless someone else modified them

I have an config file for it as well, it's not mine. So I didn't post it. But it's posted on a Telegram group for a completely different phone. I'll pm you.

Me personally I like using Hyper NEX, a modded Gcam variant
It makes reds and greens really pop out IMO (check out the attached photos)
It does struggle with selfies (automatically) as it makes them to dark
Technically you can edit them and add brightness and color back, but I just use another GCam variant for selfies lol
Snapdragon is so great in this regard, there are a lot of Gcam variant and mods
In my opinion, I say try them all out. You'll be pleasantly surprised and you'll find a style that takes them how you want them
If you're interested in Hyper NEX, here's the link to download it:

I've heard Hyper is good too. Currently testing out TigerCam to see if it's any good. Then I'll see about Hyper

Port crashes in full screen

When all set up, with or without the XML, I can't use the full screen option, only 4.3. It crashes when I switch to full wide. This happens in Urnyx05's port 7.3.018 2.2, 2.4, also. Is there something I'm missing? Or is it a bug? previous versions worked fine in wide screen.
