[MOD] Better camera mod for TB Fusion, Kingdom port and RCMixHD V6xxx

After the N1 and Arc mods for better camera, here's my first release for DHD under the RCMixHD rom, tried it with V6.1.0.0
Mainly it's just a tweaked camera jpeg compression and buffer memory not a difficult work
Advantages:
Lowering jpeg compression means larger sized photos reaching up to 3.5mb each bringing up more details and less noises!
Be aware:
There is probably no difference when shooting in dark conditions, the size of the photos are the same BUT when shooting in daylight the difference is huge!
Install:
1 -You need root
2 -For Kingdom and RCMix roms: Download the file media_profiles.zip and rename zip to xml
For TB Fusion roms: Download the file media_profiles.cab and rename cab to xml
3 -You can use Rootexplorer to copy paste the file into /system/etc or push it via ADB:
-adb devices
-adb remount
-adb push media_profiles.xml system/etc
-adb reboot
4 -REBOOT

how about some screenshots? if the app is the same would love some sample before/after pictures..
and what about other roms?

maybe changing the values in another ginger rom(media_profile) the result is the same , no?????
it is for gingerbread base rom 2.36.405.8 , put it in system/etc
rename .txt in .xml

I has found it long time ago!! Thanks! it's so great!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway to increase camcorder bitrate? I've tried in media_profiles but with no luck..,.

There are numerous video profiles in this xml, perhaps we should tweak them all!
There are minimum and max in each like for jpeg,so if you don't have a ''rich'' scene to record (good light and lot of colors) the video bitrate will not use the max settings

tested and aprouved on Coredroid ROM v6

But after I changed minimum value, bitrate shouldn't drop below this. It stays at ~10mbits. I'm pretty sure that video recording bitrate can be only tweaked in kernel.

I have it in the bottom right. Try force stopping the app and deleting data. If that doesn't help try reflashing. Mod should work on all roms.

MIUI Camera has a lot more features but Google Camera gives better photo results when properly configured, however Google Camera needs more time to take the photo (assuming you're using HDR+).

Pixel 4 camera app leak

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-7-0-009-259843690-release/
Enjoy the new camera app.

I could install the app with luckypatcher. New iu feels fresh and nice. But it looks like a portrait mode on a frontal camera doesn't work properly, it blurs everything.
UPD: the portrait mode works, it needs Ratio 4:3 to be set.

Selfies with portrait mode on front camera are blury...i reverted back to 6.3

Like mentioned above, you have to set the ratio for the front camera to 4:3 then the portrait selfies will work as they should At least it does for me.

It's a straight upgrade/update on my 3a (though it does warn that it's a "dogfood" AKA pre-beta APK). That means that- so far - there is no reason it can't install on any Pixel.

Maybe he's running either Pie or a Pie-based AOSP ROM? (Despite 10/Q being available, some folks have refused to move.)
(Yes; 10 is available to every Pixel phone; not merely some of them - however, there are still holdouts.)

for me didnt worked sow your post

It is now on the PlayStore - as Camera 7.2. If you have an earlier version installed (unmodded, of course), update. For me (Pixel 3a), the biggest gain is still NightSight; if I needed the AstroPhotography mode, the same improvements that show up in NightSight would be useful there, too. My biggest quibble is the same one that was present with the previous Camera app; motion is on by default.. (Where I'm curious is WHY it's on by default - the default with other OEM/ODM camera apps is to shoot stills.) Because of the NightSight improvements, it's a worthwhile update for the Pixel 3a and earlier - especially if you take low-light shots - and given the time of year, you likely will.

So, anybody using Cstark's PXv4.x camera mod on the Pixel 3a? Are there major improvements?
Does this install alone or does it replace stock cam?

I use it, works great, no issues found, but i did not made many pictures..
It installs as a new package, so you can use booth (or deactivate Google Camera wo you'll only have one in your app drawer)
PRO:
- set portrait zoom to 1.5 instead of 3.0
- Astrography mode switch
- many more settings to try out
CONS:
- Selecting Google Lens does not work, but you can use it easily from the app in the Playstore.
Just install it and try it for yourself, if you don't like it, you can uninstall it in a breeze.

These camera apps will install as a second camera. They do not replace the stock camera app and they can both be installed at the same time (just like any other 3rd party camera app). You can select the PX Camera to act as the default camera, but the OEM camera is available in the apps draw.
I'm running Camera PX 4.1 (version 7.2.014) right now. It adds a bunch of extra settings that are definitely helpful. One of the best features is bringing back Smart Burst mode (where the camera takes a series of high quality images while you hold the shutter button down). This was taken away by Google when they introduced the dumb video feature which only provides one high quality image and the rest are really low quality.
It probably won't make a noticeable difference in picture quality for normal pictures, but might in night or astro mode.
The only "downside" or feature not working in PX 4.1 is the "Google Lens" function. Selecting that mode doesn't actually do anything. I have to use the OEM camera right now if I want to use Google Lens. Hopefully that bug is fixed in the next version. Everything else works as expected.

Wow...
Gcam apk for my Pixel device???
*Do we need to root to use this?

Hi guys.
Pixel 3a with December 2019 updated on Android 10.
No Rooting done.
I also have a MiA3 with gcam apk installed.
The selfie on MiA3 with gcam come off better than on my P 3A.
Why is that? They have better dynamic range and details as well(on zooming).

Little off topic, but i thought the same about my nokia 7 plus with GCam.
Thing is the fixed focus on the pixel front cam. You need to hold the phone more far away to get nice selfies.
Try the modded version mentioned in this topic. i think Cstark made improvements to the front cam too

Thanks for replying.
But I had Pixel 3 before 3A(switched due to atrocious battery life), and even in that I felt that the selfie camera was ok.
The situation with my 3a is similar to my friends iPhone 11, great back camera but ok front one.
Oh well....

Nothing special really......
I have "4k Smart Burst", "Restore Smart Burst" turned on and "Super Res Xoom Always On". Portrait Zoom set to 1.5x. "AI AWB for HDR+ Enhanced" turned On and "AI AWB for Night Sight" turned on.
I don't do anything with Lib patcher. I figure the stock settings are about as good as they are going to get.

1.0 is the main lens

I know but if you want to have macro, wide, 108mp etc you don't know which one is.For example with LMC you see the name and not only 0.6 or 1.0
