Google HDR+ camera

Hi @Arnova8G2,
Thanks for porting this awesome camera.
I'm at the latest version GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.3.apk and portrait mode works fine but if i go into Slowmotion camera (used to work in previous version) camera crashes.
any solution to this?
cheers

Hi, I have just installed the apk, the slow motion camera crashes for me too, but the camera also crashes after taking a picture. May I ask for your preset/settings? Thank you.

make sure you install the patch in magisk for slomo + camera api
settings i used in camera is
Config camera HDR+ = Pixel 2017 Zsl HDR+
Model = Nexus 6p
HDR+ parameters = High
get the apk from here
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
slowmo / camera API patch from here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-camera2api-enabler-t3656651
i use the one with red txt.
cheers

Thank you for the extremely helpful response. I have tried your settings on Arnova's 5.1.018_v1.2: GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.2, everything seems to work fine. But when trying the GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.3 with your settings, the app crashes after you look back at the photos you've taken. I suspect its something to do with the Config camera HDR+ set to Pixel 2017 Zsl HDR+. Seems like it does not crash when set to Nexus 6 Auto.
On the latest version, the slow motion crashes on me as well, also can't seem to capture video. Portrait mode works! I don't suppose you've got motion photos working? Thank you.

Yes I have tried that, thank you. It seems version 1.4 beta is out, you could give it a try to see if slow mo is working or not.

One more question .. will installing Google Camera crash the MIUI Camera? I'm planning to use it side by side with GCam.
Thanks in advanced

No, you can have the both. I have Arnova8G2 and B-S-G Google Camera mods, as well as MIUI Camera and Snap Camera ones. Well, that's not all, quite few other camera apps too.
I suggest you try this one: GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.5Beta.apk (it is working very well with my Mi Max 2)

oh, 1.5 beta already out, nice lets check and see if it finally works properly with video record and portrait mode...
edit: well well! looks like GCam finally works in video recording mode with a version newer than 1.2 plus, portrait mode is finally here and it works!
however, there are two things to consider:
1) only two phone models work when selecting the HDR+ mode - either "Nexus 6 Auto" or "Pixel 2017 ZSL HDR no PD" (I chose the latter), all other phone models dont work (black screen in camera mode)
2) Due to the restriction to the two phone models, you can only activate regular HDR+, whereas HDR+ Enhanced is not available anymore
So basically, you can choose between
v1.2 for HDR+ Enhanced, but without Portrait Mode
or
v1.5 beta for regular HDR+, but with Portrait Mode included

Working Gcam v6.2.30

Hey guys,
This is a working version of GCAM V6.2.30, which supports timelapse.
What doesn't work:
1. Motion photos seems to be hit or miss, sometimes they crash the Google photos app
2. Slow motion does not work because the camera does not support 120fps video (1/4x slow motion requires 120 fps)
3. Manual Focus does not work in HDR and or with Flash.
Everything else works, just need to change front camera base model to Nexus 6p
Bulkin043's modded ports work the best compared to all other modders, i have not been successful in running Arnova's mod, the front camera of which crashes instantly.
Sadly, the guys at google cam ports decided not to host Bulkin043's ports going forward anymore (i dont know why).
The latest version which you can download is v5TR, which works,
Thank you,
Please post if you have better versions. Thank you
Link: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bulkin043/
Latest build : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-LroZ4Y7zjnvt62vtvqJ7EmSRWD3RE2O/view?usp=drivesdk
P.s. : going forward, for this phone, i think this is the best modder whose ports we can rely on.
I know a lot of people direct to Arnova, but sadly, his ports doesn't work very well except for Gcam V5.
Edit : Arnova's latest build for 6.2.30 is also working, but as of now it is not updated on the google cam port page, uploaded to gdrive and shared.
Link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gVM9KLXtfEsRAFrQm-DR0hZZ5wXKjBb0/view?usp=drivesdk
Edit 2 : Arnova's build fails to click photos in Non-Hdr mode, it most of the time does not do anything in non-hdr mode and sometimes crashes.

where do I change the camera setting to 6p

Anxcam on K20 Pro/Mi 9T Pro

Hey guys,
there are some custom roms out and I want to know if someone of you tried Anxcam on it?
How was your experience?
What worked what not?
Was it stable?
Would be great if someone could report about that.
Thanks!:highfive:
Edit: for those people who don't know what anxcam is, it's a Miui Cam port for AOSP based custom roms.
https://camera.aeonax.com

I'm using Resurrection Remix, and installed ANXCamera 137 version on Magisk.
- Video recording causes app crash.
- Portrait mode does not work with a pop up says camera error. cannot connect to the camera.(need to force close the app to use other modes)
- All modes after portrait mode does not work because of portrait mode error.

Did you install the 48MP fix? I remember when I had the Mi9 it also fixed Portrait mode and video was working too.

Portrait mode works now after applying 48MP fix(ANX48MPFix, 129)
1. Slow-mo 960fps shows like half pinky and half greenish
2. Short video works normally
3. Video menu still causes app crash. https://del.dog/aweqoyafun.sql
4. Shutter speed faster than 1/125 creates yellow lines.
5. Front camera does not pop up

Yes bro i know this actually i use this CAM on Mi6 custom ROM but quality was not good as compared to stock MiUi ROM apk.
if picture quality in Redmi k20 pro is same like stock ROM apk, then i will flash custom ROM and will use this CAM,
I have only one phone so can't test custom ROM ..

5 days left and Im able to unlock and try anxcam myself.:good:

This is currently the only thing that prevents me from totally switching to a custom rom. Gcam currently lacks support for slow motion and anxcamera has too many bugs. If there is a cam apk available that works as on miui roms then i will permanently switch

Anxcam is the only way to get Miui camera on custom ROMs. There is no other possibility. I hope they will fix the bugs in near future. For Mi9 it worked pretty good but you need to install the 48MP fix first.
So let's hope and wait. :good:

But if disable modules like v127 , the anx camera can't take real 48mp photo .
I mainly use Google Camera Mod now , although it's not perfect, but at least the photo quality is good, and I hope to have a full-featured anx camera. use them together for different occasions

If you have found the perfect gcam mod and settings combination, please share it.
For all the 6.1 / 6.2 versions I have tried, there was one or more of the options not working.
The BSG build 2e worked best so far.

Thanks a lot for this link !
It's the first gcam 7, I could install.
* Most features work for me.
* Night sight camera (preview) is 90 degree rotated, but the images are correct.
* With the auxiliary camera (enable 2nd and 3rd lens), the app crashes when selecting one of the other lenses.
* After crashing, I can not open the app anymore. I had to delete the app's data files to start it up again anew.
Unfortunately, it this gcam version can not work with the 64MP camera.
Great share.

Any chance to have the support of the tele and ultrawide Lens ? Tried many different releases of GCAM for several device but none of them was working with Realme X2 Pro 3rd lens...

Wgere can we find latest versions of the gcam port ?

Find this site but there is no X2 Pro GCAM release dedicated to this device for the moment.

For stock camera's also, Realme doesn't use a zoom lens for video,
try to close the lens while shooting the video to know what lens to use, *maybe the (hardware) zoom lens on the x2 pro really can't record video

Question ANX camera makes more noisy photos than MIUI camera

Hey guys, when I'm using ANX camera the photos are getting way more noisy than on stock MIUI camera. I'm using Arrow OS. I posted 2 photos for comparison.
The noise is more visible in the corners. I have installed:
- ANXCameraUnity_185R.SaltyIntelligentPlainsqueaker
-RN10P ADD ON
- 48 MP fix.
Anyone got any ideas how to get better results with ANX camera?

nop.
Xiomi did the firmware for his sensor, the anx is a port. Obviously u will get better photos on stock miui.

Oh, I see. I thought that they extracted that firmware completely. Well then that's a bummer.

Hi Adrian,
there is in fact one more file to install for a proper work of ANX Camera and you can find it attached here. I found this file on accident while browsing the Telegram channel "Redmi Note 10 Pro/Max Photography". I hope its installation will make the difference you / I hope.
You can also install (from Google Play) ANXCamera pro which gives access to a lot of other functions even if not all of them work with ANX for Redmi Note 10 Pro. I, for example, use this app only to activate the Dual Video mode which is not available in ANXCamera port but is available in the stock camera.

oh, Thanks a bunch. I gonna install and test it.

Don't use the 48MP fix

I tried both installing libcameraservice service and uninstalling 48 MP fix and the quality is still more inferior than on stock MIUI camera or Gcam.
Thanks for all the suggestions though!

Was feel that too, on custom ROMs with ANX on it.
But since ANX is kind of universal/port, we can't rely on it more deeper, we need an actual "device specific" port but not really sure if it's possible or not.
Try with any GCam out there which fits your need or else turn back to MIUI.

New Update for ANXCamera! Maybe there are improvements!

more stable , but quality still same.

Thanks, I bought the phone mainly for the camera, but I hate MIUI so I'm running PE with both ANX and GCam. GCam seems better, have you tried it?
Would be awesome if you can add a comparison for all 3!

I have similar observations with the newest ANX camera update. There are no longer any crashes after install, although sadly quality hasn't changed a bit.
Right now I'm on custom rom so I can't make such comparison.
