In theory it should work on this device, right? I'm not sure if I installed it right but it doesn't seem to work yet for me. It's still in beta so that could change. This is the article for those that haven't seen it yet, https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-ported/
I'm stoked because my current Rom doesn't have hdr
Doesn't work here on lastest stable 8.2.5.0 build under android 6...
Snap camera give me good result anyway !!
I just tried it with the latest RRemix and it works like a charm. Really impressed with the detail it gets out. I hated the pictures made with the normal Google camera, especially since I was traveling these days and it's either an overexposed sky, or underexposed building that were on the picture. Now I can have the best of both worlds.
Then require Nougat ROM version !!
Thx for report

Hi. Can you post some pics? Maybe comparing to default and snap camera if possible. Thanks!
Sure thing, here is an album for you of some quick pictures I took. The difference is quite big and you can see it immediately.

Thanks! Nice improvement. The camera is the only thing keeping me from making the Mi Mix my dd. That may change soon once I check it out. Anymore pics comparing to say, snap camera ap would be great. Thanks again!

Sure mate, here are more pictures. This time with Snap Camera samples too.

Since I don't use the Snap Camera all too much, this is a huge improvement in picture quality. Especially how it gets the harsh lighting and sky to be correct.

Based off those samples it seems like Snap strikes a good middle ground. I used FV-5 and Open Camera and low light pictures would always be even darker than they appeared. I tried the modded Google Camera with HDR+ and while it does take better photos in darker surroundings it almost goes a bit too far.
Sure, but I'm not into changing apps and whatnot and setting up manual modes to get the most of my shots. With this, I get a good picture. And all I had to do was point and shoot. Good enough for me. Now I'm actually compelled to take more pictures, since it takes good pictures now.
So this doesn't work with the original ROM? Mine crashes straight away.

Doesn't work on the latest EPIC (7.7.20 MIUI) either. I assume it doesn't work because MIUI 8/9 is still based on Android 7.0 and this app was extracted from 7.1.2 (the app is a mod of Camera version 4.4.012 which requires 7.1+).
Hey Guys,
I wondering if I am missing the trick to this... I am running LOS so camera API2 enabled via HAL3 enabled = 1
But when I try to install the apk, I get the error:
App not Installed
The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name.
Any ideas? I really want to try this!
Install apk, enable camera API2, reboot.
Work on latest Epic ROM.
Not working on stock chinese MIUI 8.5.3.0(MAHCNED)....application crashes

Based on photos it's very clear that Google hdr+ captures a lot of detail from the sky, and that's what I missed a lot on standart camera app...
Thanks for sharing!

I'm running latest epic everything is fine and nice with Google photo app but the main camera app Force to close when I try to take a photo, it does however take videos normally. Do you know any workaround?
EDITED
Nevermind, clearing cache and data solves the issue !
MAN, finally we got a great HDR!!!
I'm very happy, this HDR IS AWESOME
I've been using the modded Google camera for a couple of days now on RR 5.8.4. I like it a lot! I can hardly believe that the photos, especially with HDR+ on (instead of HDR+ auto) were from my Mix.
Mostly everything works. Panorama, Photo Sphere, Lens Blur all work. I did find a couple of issues, though. The worst one is that the video camera, both in normal and slow motion mode, crashes probably 9 times out of 10. It seems to work, but after the filming is over the app crashes when the video is saved. There is a file saved that is unreadable. This is the only issue that prevents me from making this app my default camera.
A minor issue, that's probably fixable with a build.prop change, is the selfie cam takes upside down photos.

Sad news...
hello everyone,
just wanna share what i found in 4pda.
credits to sinykovo on 4pda lenovo p2 thread.
i think you need to enable camera2 api first
only the rear cam has hdr+ and no portrait mode

Good camera, thanks.
I urge others not to waste their time to download the app linked above. This is a very, very old version of GCAM and not the one that you think it is. For now, there's no GCAM that works with HDR+ enabled on the rear camera. So, save you bandwidth and don't download this piece of ****.

You might be right that it's an older version of GCAM, but surprisingly it actually took better photos than the GCAM app in the other thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/themes/stable-oneplus-5-camera-t3709983
Comparison shots attached. Thanks OP ?
Hello guys,
I'm on the latest stable Oxygen OS on my OP3T.
I wonder what is the best camera app or camera mod to install in order to have better quality pictures ?
I donwload the 2.8.11 camera app. Is there a better app ? Or maybe better drivers ?
What are your thought about ?
Thanks

I'm my opinion the best thing you can do is go and use ported Google Camera (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/modded-google-camera-hdr-60fps-video-t3658552). Right now I'm using Arnova8G2-V8.2 version with no issues.
When I first got my 3T I was pretty disappointed about the camera quality (specially in low light situations) but after installing the GC everything changed, the HDR+ is something amazing. However, keep in mind that for shooting videos and manual control on photos the Oneplus camera app is the way to go.
I recommend you go and install the Google Camera from the link above and do some testing and compare the results with the OP camera you will see what's best for your use.
Good luck!

Bump.
Does anyone use gcam on x3 pro and is it better than the stock? I can't shoot good photos at night with stock app.
For me stock camera work good in the major of conditions, Gcam shot better during the day in normal light conditions, the shadows are more detailed and all in general. You can try LMC Camera 8.4 for normal shots also without XML, for wide lens you can try BSG Camera with aweme package but have some issues in normal shot, will show a black space at the left of the photo, seem it can be solver finding right session id for back camera, but unfortunately I not find a right value for it.
Both gcam are on telegram, just search for it.
Hi everybody,
I see several threads which are dealing with the best camera or best camera settings for PHOTOGRAPHY.
But I haven't found any that is dealing with VIDEO.
As I am more into taking videos I would like to know which app (and settings) you recommend and why.
Thanks!

I'll stay with MIUI camera for video recording (default settings). Most of 3rd party cameras are only optimized for photography. But yeah, instead of judging which one is better you can test it one by one by yourself.

I have tested a couple of GCam versions and the Leica-Camera and think that none of those was good.
As I am on an AOSP ROM I could not install MIUI camera.
Probably MIUI camera is the best one for video recording but I do not know.
And probably there are some GCam mods which are even better.
Could you please explain why you prefer MIUI camera. Is it the sharpness, expore, noise reduction, or any other parameter?

I'm not really expert with photo/videography, but i'm just looking the video results with the default settings of 3rd party cameras compared to the MIUI camera. The results were MIUI camera have better video stabilization compared to the 3rd party cameras.
