CStark27 NoHex GCam port Review by SnapDrag910
back.rider gcam review by VRDemon
I don't have Nokia 6.1 Plus anymore because the USB port is broken. And after I claim the warranty, I gave it to my dad. (because the official service center takes too long to fix it.)
Will still maintain this thread for some periods tho, but i will not make any new review.

Recommended version (most stable)
Tolyan's 1.4: MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-based_v.1.4_TlnNeun.apk (Tolyan009, 2019-02-14)
MGC_6.1.021_xcam_5_beta19.apk (xtrme, 2019-02-15) [Haven't tested but some members said it's good)
Latest version (not tested)
Arnova's Advanced 1.5: GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.5.190418.1850.apk (Arnova8G2, 2019-04-18)
MGC_6.2.024_BSG_Arnova-based_v.0.2_TlnNeun.apk (Tolyan009, 2019-04-12)
Google Camera Settings

Based from the changelog, it will on some devices. I did not tested the slow motion yet on Nokia 6.1 Plus. Let's just wait for the dev (especially Tolyan009) to fix things out.

Face quality not good ...
Night sight not Good
6.1.0.13 is best

Anyone tried latest one.
I have also tried nokia7plus version. Viewfinder hangs on night mode

Is any developer there who can develop pixel 3 camera in accordance with our Nokia 6 .1 plus.
Since 6.1.0.13, no other app has been stable n give good pics.

The latest one by back.rider (optimized for Nokia 7 Plus) is actually stable enough to use as daily driver.
My Observation -
Detail is way more than what Nokia camera captures.
Device heat is more contained.

App by back.rider issue
Screen goes black on night sight mode

CStark27 NoHex GCam port
This is a GCam port by cstark27 that i use as a daily driver on my phone.
Everything works including night sight(which BTW works frickin flawless):fingers-crossed:
Since, this a NoHex target port, the camera has some optimisation to reduce the usage of the SoC which means, lesser heat and lesser battery usage than other ports.
The in-app animations also feel significantly smoother than the other ports(subjective).
It is stable enough for MY daily use cases. But i don't know about you. You test and see for yourselves if it fits the bill
The 2 cons that I face -
The AF data/Info cannot be removed from the screen yet. It isn't a biggie as it takes only a very small space on the viewfinder and is barely visible when clicking photos.
It needs a few tweaks from the user's side to unleash the full potential of the camera(I'll post the tweaks i've done, if theres interest in this port)

Pls tell ur tweak.
BTW i am using arnovag2 recent camera apk. Its good. But it has slight reddish tint on night pics

GCam in LG G7 won't load lgg7.xml (says it's not there...)
Hello, sorry for the nubie status...
My phone is a LG G7 ThinQ (G710ULM), cross-flashed to Android 10 using a Canadian kdz).
I just installed your GCam port (7.3.018 v2.1). I then tried to load the configs file lgg7.xml but the new 'Camera' app says 'You don't have any configs!'
I tried installing the app from a GCam directory (at the same level as DCIM) on both internal and micro SD storage. I tried placing the same lgg7.xml file in both Configs and Configs7 sub directories - nothing works.
Seems that the app itself needs the Configs file since it's slow to track what you are pointing the lens at.
Any suggestions?

Bhot hard professor ?

Not working
The file not available ???

Work great thanks

Hallo, yeah it works great.
But I don't know if it's a bug if you zoom in HDR mode, the app closes.

Thanks, I will try it as soon as the mi note 10 lite is better supported (custom recovery/roms)

Video Recording also working with macro and wide lenses support. Yes you can shoot videos on AUX cameras as well with this port.
How you shoot videos with wide/macro lenses?
Also lenses icons disappear from viewfinder when switching between modes.

How can I load the config? I can't find the button

It doesn't let me download the app despite deleting all my gcam ports on my device
edit: nvm i deleted my old app but for some reason had to manually do it again from the settings

hi,
you create a GCam folder at the root of the internal memory (internal shared storage space), in this GCam folder you create a Configs7 folder and in this Configs7 folder you put the XML file.
sorry for my bad english.

When I create a photosphere it won't let me see it. It opens the gallery app. But the default app doesn't recognize photospheres

Thanks, works really nicely. Only issue I found is a brief screen flicker when changing screen orientation.

1080 30/60 fps and 4k 30fps stabilization not working. it is supported on this version?

Thanks for your effort. The mod is great except for the video. It freezes and crashes the phone.
Hope you can fix the issue soon. Also, the app icon, I wish you use the classic Gcam icon. well, it is just my opinion

how can I use the ultrawide camera on the gcam?

You need to make a file named Gcam in the internal storage
then inside that you make another file named Configs7
In that you just paste the xml file which is privided
(the files need to be named exactly as i typed them btw)
then you just double tap at the gcam app in the black part between the picture taking button and the gallery
It should show you a white rectangular shape and you press update
then you get access to ultrawide and macro

It doesn't let me record video for some reason

Nevermind, it is indeed actually version 2; however, there's no option to turn on HDR. How do I turn on the experimental HDR as you've mentioned in the changelog?

In v2.1 which I just released, HDR and HDR+ do work, just download updated apk and install.
And thanks for using PenguinGCam

Hello, in the link the file appears to me as version 2.1. but 2.0 appears in the app. The file is wrongly uploaded there.
ps: thanks for the app it works perfect for me

Huh, so now this is weird... while the .apk's file name says it's v2.1, upon installing and opening the app it's still the exact same as before and says it's still version 2 (so no HDR or anything). You may have accidentally confused the two files. See the screenshot attached here: https://i.imgur.com/4yDpwrm.jpg
P.S Thanks a lot for putting so much effort into the app btw!

Im sorry

It seems HDR still isn't kicking in (HDR is turned on and so is HDR+ Control; same results without HDR+ Control and HDR). See the attached screenshots below:
Stock Camera (HDR example): https://i.imgur.com/sSmIWKq.jpg
PenguinGCam (HDR enabled, not working?): https://i.imgur.com/u1Z3boi.jpg
Is HDR not working or are there some other settings besides HDR+ Control in Advanced Options and HDR in PenguinGCam Settings that also need to be changed in order for HDR to work? Thanks a lot!

Im sorry, I do not have a huawei p20 to test or debug. And on A51 HDR + is extremly buggy(it sometimes uses HDR in a photo and sometimes not) and if you want HDR+ RAW( which will be part of 3.0) you will need root to enable full camera2api if that even works.
Maybe you will find something on the internet: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=gcam+huawei+p20+pro&ia=web

Does it good enough for daily use? Maybe for taking picture of Online Classes Assessment?

New request
It would be awesome if it could be added google photos integration like in most gcam modifications.

Hello zombieanidata,
full google photos integration will not be happening, but penguingcam already uses Google photos editor for photo editing. If you don't have google photos installed, editing photos within PenguinGCam is not possible

Improves the quality compared to the Stock? Could you share pictures comparing GCam with Stock please

Probably a stupid question..... but the apk just "works" on my zen8. Where do I enter these settings to alter or add tele/wide? (I have opened the settings menu but do not recognize the fields where I can enter these values)

What is the difference between the different versions?

I will prepare a collection of photos from Camera app and gcam. From my observations it's 50/50 which means that some are better on Asus and some on Google cam. From what I see is that in very difficult conditions - like against direct sunlight - Google makes more pleasent photos, but Asus is generally brighter and in shadows keeps more natural colours. In dimmspaces Google keeps the colours as they are, however.
Most of the times during day theres no visible benefit of google. Also HDR+ takes much more time to shoot. HDR is quick, though.

I've read on zenfone 7, that is possible to activate the 64mpixel. I tried all IDs, but no-one works. On zenfone 7, the write that I'd is 6

ID 6 crashes the app so it does not work.
After todays photo session I can say that the gcam is not an upgrade. In most cases stock camera is better. Actually looking at the app versions it seems that the stock camera IS Google Camera with some slight adjustment.
If the sharpness of the stock cmaera could be slightly reduced to avoid pixelation it would be perfect. Maybe some manual log change will be possible for that.

I have created a folder with various photos from the Zenfone 8 taken on the stock camera and on the gcam.
You're welcome to take a look and compare by yourself - all data and an easy way to differentiate the cameras is the "info" where gcam has PXL_ in name and stock has P_
Comments on album are welcome.

In my opinion the stock camera is generally better and produces more true to life outcome. It is a little bit to bright and the sharpness in details is a little to big. You can see that only by zooming in. This can be overcome by shooting 64MP which happens quick but the size is bigger.

Thank you for your contribution, nice photos!
From what I can see, the gcam has more sharpening and saturation, which I like in photos.
But I prefer the HDR management of the stock camera, I love how it captures the clouds.
Is there a way to adjust contrast and saturation on the stock camera?

Yes and no, there are no options for that but you can slightly lower the brightness during the photo taking with a slider onscreen. That makes them a little more like gcam.
I have also noticed that HDR on stock is really nice but it softenes the image and destroys edges. With no HDR it super sharp.
Also stock wide camera has almost no distortion where gcam is quite round on edges.

New photos added to the album. The latest update seems to improve HDR very much. It's now better than gcam in almost every case.

thanks for sharing your experience, for me most of the times the gcam pics look much better on a calibrated monitor.
do you know if Face retouching and night sight are working with this gcam version?

I saw that selfie camera, during night, the HDR doesn't work properly. But also the stock camera, all selfies in the night are very cheaper quality :/
Edit: I put the selfie camera with "pixel 4 settings", it works now!

I saw that gcam make miracles, especially with selfie camera, during night. HDR work perfectly. All lens working properly.
This gcam freezing after 3 seconds, but i can take pictures, while changing lens. We need buffer fix, for make it working? or existing some config file?
Thanks

4k/60 fps doesn't work with gcam, is saved as 4k/30fps.. Would like to use GCam for filming because it has much smoother zooming while recording, in the default camera app the zoom is very choppy.
