Can anyone please port the stock camera and gallery of the k20pro for custom roms. I want to root the phone and install a new rom but don't want to lose the crazy camera features and gallery features like sky filters, object cutouts, aperture adjustments & studio lighting. For the first time MI gave something that made me stick to the stock rom. Is there any solution for this? I want to switch but I am addicted to this camera, and Gcam doesn't perform as good as it does on other phones, so yeah if I switch its going to be with the stock camera. Please help! Thanks in advance
Gcam v7 works miles ahead of the stock cam!
But stock on custom will not be possible.. It needs the xiaomi framework & libs to function & customs don't have it.

I'm thinking of switching to AOSP based rom like CM10.
But I don't know how much difference are there between the stock sense camera app and others'?
Will the 3rd party apps make ultrapixel technology useless and turn the camera to normal 4MP one?
TrickDroid 7.5.0 is a sense-based ROM which gives you the option to install the AOSP Camera and Gallery, and I did that. They do not replace your Sense camera and gallery applications, but they are there as well. I cannot tell much of a difference in terms of quality between the two since they both use the same hardware, but it's all about how you set the camera up to take pictures. Of course the Sense camera has A LOT more features going for it, most importantly Zoe.
You will lose only theming and zoe function from sense camera
thank you guys! I'll go install CM10 now :laugh:
Hello N6P users, I succeed in getting the ZSL HDR+ works on Nexus 5X, as Nexus 6P has the same camera hardware and better SoC, I'd like to ask someone test my mod, to see if the function works.
What's ZSL HDR+?
ZSL = zero shooting lag, means you won't get camera freeze after taking a HDR+ auto shoot. it is build-in the Google Camera 4.2 and only works on Pixel phones, now I force the app using Pixel configuration, it should perform the same ZSL HDR+ shooting on Nexus 6P.
Details about the ZSL HDR+.
ZSL-enhanced For 8.0+ only, ZSL HDR+ For 7.1.1+ only, Android 7.0 users please use NoZSL version.
APK was signed by ZipSign using my own signature, it won't replace your default camera app, it will install as a normal app, with a different camera icon.
Last Update
03/24/2018 V7.4
Base on Google Camera 5.2
1. Bring back HDR+ on Nexus 5X/6P.
2. Add Lens Blur mode.
3. EIS should be back to normal on Pixel 1, as EIS will be disabled with 4K quality with official version.
4. Active Google photos combination to view results again on enhanced version.
Details and download link for V7.4
01/02/2018 V7.3.1
Bug fix version
1. Fix abort HDR+ process FC problem.
2. Fix viewfinder flickering issue.
3. Add ZSL version for Android 7.1+, the previous one should be ZSL-enhanced version.
Bugs:
1. smart-burst always mark the first photo (ZSL-enhanced version).
2. Autofocus won't work after manually focus, need lock then unlock the AF/AE lock.
12/31/2017 V7.3
Current the new version is only for Android 8.0+, will release the updated version for Android 7.0.
1. Add the most wanted feature, Portrait mode (use Pixel 2's front lens software method, it needs a human face shows up to work.).
2. Remove silence feedback service, crash report service, and the broken Help menu, for faster app launch.
3. Remove Google photos combination, motion photo still works but you need to view it through Google photos manually.
I have named it wrong and this one should be the ZSL-enhanced version, sorry for the wrong package errors on Android 7.1.2
Details and download link for V7.3.1
11/06/2017 V7.2.0
This is bug fix version, not only for Pixel 2016, everyone who is using enhanced version should grab this update.
1. Fix crash issue on Pixel 2016.
2. Fix provider author name mistake leads to a thumbnail generation issue.
3. Motion pictures should be saved with a file name "MVIMG-####-##" right now, it became "IMG-####-##" in V7.1 version, which was wrong, this might mess the G photos when index media files.
Enhanced version users should get the experimental2017 library now.
Sorry, after some more test it seems experimental2017 is not necessary, just install the new version it will be ok.
About the Lens photo editor, it will be available after the picture upload to Google cloud.
10/19/2017 V7.1.0
1. Based on the last Google Camera 5.1.014, add Pixel 2016 phones support (need test).
2. Video 60FPS mode with EIS FC bug Fixed.
3. Motion photos for Pixel 2016 phones.
4. Micro video (Motion photos) EIS use gyro sensor enabled for Pixel (it was only activated on Pixel XL), need feedback.
5. Update icon support adapted icon and regular icon.
6. Disable Motion photos and G-photo integration for Android 7.1.
-- Now there is a new ZSL-enhanced version for Motion photos, G-photos combine, diet smart-burst on Android 8.x.
-- NOZSL and ZSL version will perform the old way while added new face retouching.
-- Bugs: after shooting photos, review it and you will see a black screen, need to wait for HDR+ process, I don't know it is normal or just hardware limited.

Uuhhh, big difference between 7.0 and 7.1
Argh already using v3.1 but can't test v4 cos I'm under 7.0 ...
Works great. The zero lag is true for sure. Not a big camera user but it seems to do what is advertised.
I'm on the developers preview

I am using it too. Awesome stuff. Thank you. Using it on 7.1.1.

Get black screen only on nitrogen rom. But have custom kernel installed
Works great on 7.1.1 even with ElementalX 3.08!! There is some lag when its moving around, the regular camera doesnt have this, but its probably what makes the ZSL possible! There is still some lag with HDR+ on, but none with HDR Auto
btw this is working mint dude. good job. plan to keep it updated? id def choose this over the stock dp'7.1 camera

He said loud and clear this is for dev preview 7.1.1, there is an older version for 7.0, and nitrogen falls in neither of those, because its 7.1.0 !!!
And @op great job, this is fantastic. Now if only 1080p 60fps worked, it would be a dream

Can you try using ex kernel to see if it works? I think its the kernel thing, when we have the 7.1 kernel source we might get it work on 7.0.

Did the lag happen when using the stock camera?
Good to see custom 7.0 kernel on 7.1.1 did not break the camera, I would like to see some one on 7.0 using ex 3.08 kernel can get camera usable.

By lag I meant shutter lag with hdr+ on. With hdr auto, it works like a charm with zero shutter lag. This is all in the NZ Camera

Ah I see. I would like to ask if the zsl also works if you turn off the HDR+ ? As no zsl switch inside the app for N6P, only one for N5X and it is disabled by default...
I force it enable for N5X, but for N6P I dont know if it is enabled or not.
I suppose it is enabled as the bursts mode needs it.

Yes
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+).

Is there any posibility to get exposure time more than 1/2sec? 6-32sec probably good

I'm using LineageOS 14.1-20180110-UNOFFICIAL-santoni and it crashes when I try to take a panoramic photo and can't enable HDR.
Hi all,
I apologize if this had been answered but, is there any way to make the Gcam port recognized as the main camera app?
The reason I ask is because I want to map it to the gesture shortcuts and it will only let me map the Mi camera.
Thanks
Hi, just try disabling the mi camera - your other camera should be recognized as stock then.
I've done the same with the mi fotos app (since I prefere google photos) - I disabled the app, now I can use google fotos from Mi camera.
Edit: it could result in unexpected behaviour (e.g. bootloop or whatever) so on your own risk ^^
I really don't want to do that but I would wait with google camera. The MI camera is pretty sick (at least on the MI9) and the gcam kinda sucks and is lacking tons of important features. Consider your options here ^^

Such as?
If go to settings > Manage Apps > Three dots in top corner > Default Apps
You can then set a default for Camera. When i click on my Camera option I can pick either Stock cam or Gcam. Can only pick by Icon though, I have a diff icon for Gcam
I havnt tried this for mapping purposes but hopefully works
Undecided which I prefer so far of the two cameras

Don't take it personally. The google camera mod has been amazing (for my previous Redmi devices) but it's really hard recommending it at this point.
It just keeps crashing on my device and I can't record @60fps. The MIUI camera really caught up
Back to the task at hand: you can set the google camera as your default camera but the shortcut will still open the MI camera (same analogy like the photo galleries). Try disabling the MI camera app (you can try it via adb - just check out the link I've posted!) but be careful! It can result in unexpected behaviour - such as bootlooping or constant crashing reports etc.
Good luck ^^ feel free to tell us how it went.

The stock camera is better overall. The one area where gcam does excel is night shot. Other than that, the contrast is overblown on gcam (dark colors look darker than they should, and the bright ones look brighter than they should, which results in exaggerated detail)
And for video, 4k60 is really good on the stock camera, and isn't available on gcam.
Is there anyway to use the full 20mp in front facing camera.. All gcam takes default 5mp by pixel binding.. also flash didn't work like stock... It acts like a torch while capturing photo

i am using miui 12 pie and both stock and gcam are working at the same time .....
both have their advantages....
1. gcam uses pixel binning ( combining ) them
_so your camera is not really using 5mpx ..it is using max pixels merged into a 5mpx output_
_this might give you a good or better looking photo than some 20mpx sensors on some phones
_people use gcam because of Google's theoretical excellence in processing photos *** therefore better photos than stock ... because if you feel.stock has better photos than there is no argument for using gcam
2. gcam mods which allow you to choose to manually force the gcam to use the secondary ( aux ) exist ...you can use it in combo with magisk modules
_dont expect a giant leap in photo quality since our aux sensor is for low light ...and was never meant not even by Xiaomi to act as the main shooter
_stock camera changing between sensors automatically while in gcam.you will. have to.do.it manually _
_VERY IMPORTANTLy ...our aux sensor is NOT api2 compliant only our main sensor ...as per Xiaomi ...so Xiaomi needs to fix that if it can be fixed....that is why our phone isn't released with api2 enabled..
Options:
1. Use magisk module in stock rom to get stock camera
2. Use stock rom to use miui 12 pie to get both stock and gcam working at the same time
3. Use gcam with aux sensor select button in settings to activate it manually in custom rom
4. buy a jasmine or wayne device and donate it to gcam.modder or dev stating your wish that he/she fixes it so it runs how you feel.it should run
I'm pretty certain this info is old and if you looked you'd find all the magisk modules and gcams and mods and info floating around ...
go check out the official gcam mods page for devs working on cams for our device and try them.all to find the one you like best and maybe give them.a small donation
try out the stock cam magisk module to see if it works correctly on custom rom
failing that just your miui with magisk to have it all.
Stock makes great depth of field photos imho
Gcam takes richer photos in general like but if you aren't careful you might run in oversaturation ..more options
_you can enable arcore and ar stickers by magisk mod and using patched playground from gcam mods page
This doesn't seem to be a GCam issue... All camera apps just see 5MP for the front and secondary back camera. It's probably an internal issue with Camera2Api?
