[GUIDE] GCAM Mod for ZTE AXON 10 Pro

Hello, here for all who are not satisfied with the camera quality of the AXON 10 Pro. Everything works perfect in this version except for 1-2 things. There are some things that you have to pay attention to, more below.
Here is a small comparison with comments:
Night: https://photos.app.goo.gl/WLDZSGboeyfQNKyS8
Day: Still to follow
1. First, download and install this GCAM version:
https://mega.nz/#!xXJTCY6J!NId0QM4tYi7woKoy1BwKN_fAGBJN0J95LnIKHhK5gJc
2. Then my own config for the AXON 10 Pro:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117896736
3. Now you have to create this folder structure on the internal memory:
Gcam -> configs
4. Now you take the config "Axon10ProV3.xml" and pack it in the newly created "configs" folder.
5. Now you can start the new camera app and allow the permissions.
6. Now just tap the black area next to the trigger and the config restores.
7. Done! Have fun (but there are things to note!)
12MP main and 5MP front are normal and is expected! (4in1 pixels)
You can switch by holding the camera switching & gallery buttons through the different lenses!
Update 1:
Changlog:
-Workaround for Nightsight not needed anymore
-4K Front Video
-60fps added (Resolution Bug)
If you want to use the night vision mode on the main camera you have to:
Switch to Ultra Wide or Tele
Then more
Now select Forbearance
Finished!
If you want to use the night vision mode on Tele & Ultra you need:
Switch to Ultra Wide or Tele
If it is not dark enough to stop the lens
Now night vision is proposed.
Tap on it and you're done!
Under "More" -> "Settings" -> "Advanced" -> "Libs" you can choose between different profiles. The "s" stands for sharpened. I prefer the non-s libs as they produce a more natural image. Its also set in my config. For Nighsight the "s" versions can produces better results.
Have fun with a much better camera!

Very good

when I use night mode the camera turns off after taking the picture

Update 1:

APK link fixed.

Im clicking next to shutter button and all I get is message that <You don't have any configs>. How do you import configs?

Step 3 and 4

Much appreciate your efforts!
So far so good with my tests. Tons of fine tuning with GCAM it's not even funny. I just have a problem that I can't seem to resolve with the Video.
Whenever I switch to video mode, the GCAM app just crashes. I feel like i'm missing something stupid or probably some user operated error on my part...
Any assistance on this i'd be grateful!
EDIT: I'm using the ROM from China.
Thanks

Found a link to a working Gcam 7.0 apk for the Axon 10 Pro. Everything seems to work. There's a detailed settings menu which lets you make lots of adjustments that I haven't messed with yet. Here's the link. I downloaded the version for the "K20, K20 Pro, OnePlus Devices".

Can you please update that link to point to a real Gcam 7?

Any news for a GCAM mod working with Android 10 on Axon 10? Old 6.1x version doesn't work anymore and "new" 7.x version from this thread uses only main camera. Is there a version working with all 3 back cameras?
Gesendet von meinem ZTE A2020G Pro mit Tapatalk

Yeah. Hope someone develops one that's compatible with Android 10 and all three cameras.

Any news by now for a GCAM mod working with Android 10 on Axon 10?

Hi folx,
i tried recently different GCam Mods to find a fitting one but i didn't succeed getting the one with all settings working
This is what i find so far: (i hope it is not doubled - then plz forgive me :angel: )
1 - Sabre is not working on my phone (Android 10) different Mods 7.3.020 -> always results in not saved pictures... Maybe it never worked before ?
2 - Auto focus tracking in combination with Video crashes the GCAM on my phone.
3 - Is there a possibility to get all three Cams working on ZTE or is it impossible due to a certain fact ?
4 - Which of the GCam - Mods is preferred by your experiences in respect of working features and picture quality ?
5 - Someone asked one of the GCam Modders to create a mod for the Axon 10 pro ? Maybe a small Team can help ?
6 - Is there a howto mod GCAM apk ?
7 - Haven't found a description of the Libpatcher's parameters - some are still unknown to me
Actually i use the one from parrot043 - Libpatcher enabled - trying to find the best setting for now i increased most of the parameters by 25 %
I wish you all a pleasant sunday
Cheers
Rhonin

I've tried several gcam mods. They all seem to work fine with the main camera. But I am unable to use any of the secondary cameras. Often there is not even an option to activate. If so... The app crashes as soon as I switch to wide angle or tele.
Anybody found a working mod? Android 10

I am also running into it crashing when taking a night mode shot. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Hi folx, i think we have to root our phones first to activate a special magisk modul called : Auxiliary_in_GCam_magisk . After that it could/should be possible to access the other cams. But due the fact that i haven't rooted my phone yet i can't tell you from my own experiences. For now i'm happy with PixelCam Dise v1.2
If s.o. has rooted his phone and tested a fitting GCam Mod - please inform the rest of us -
THX in advance

Did anyone tried anxcamera for redmi k20 pro? Which features are working and which are not.
Thank you

Tried this: https://github.com/XEonAX/ANXCamera.../ANXCameraUnity_133.WeeNecessarySolenodon.zip
and it worked exactly as intended. All seems to be working including 48mp feature, even the front cam filters. Lol check this in-door night shot.

Does the 3 camera swapping work? Also is there mechanical noise when swapping between the front and back cameras on custom roms with this camera?

As stated, everything works the way it should. All camera modes are accessable and no, it doesn't make mechanical sound. I'm on PE anyway with the immensity kernel august 8 build.

Did you try video and portrait mode aswell? For me it force closes immediately when selecting portrait mode. After selecting portrait mode for the first time it force closes also when selecting video.
Did anyone try this? Whats your experience?

It can do 960fps slowmotion, unsure of 4k60fps I can only find 1080p60fps
Also trying to bump thread, after a good camera app with no force close issues is hard these days :crying:

Does anyone have a more recent experience with anx? Have the issues (force closes) been resolved? Is the quality comparable to stock on miui? Or does everyone use gcam instead?
Thanks in advance.

This is a good start! Thank you !

This is great! Is there a reason why you ported version 5 instead of the newer versions (6.x)? Merely curious.

Excellent, just did a quick test and photos seams sharper with gcam.
- Can you change default app for opening miniature?
- ISO setting don't work
Keep up the great work

Donated. Great start start. Please continue working on this!

I cant use it always fc

i dearly hope that guy in the other thread who kept hammering on about wanting gcam to be ported to xperia 1 will give a fair donation to this bloke.

Hi! Ma Shao
China Mainland seems to have published nw-a100 and ZX500 Series with android 9 system
Have you tried to extract the app of the player from walkman APP (W.mucis)
For use with XPERIA phones.

What's the difference between the two apks?
Settings works, great!

M-rom you make very good custom ROMs you ever going to make for Xperia 1 I use to have m-rom on my xz premium

Portrait mode doesn't blur the background or am I missing something?

Some minor diffenence in settings.
Not all settings work, have to try some times.

My observations so far are that Gcam images look more organic and with much less artifacts than the stock camera, jpg files are also bigger with more information and hold up to editing better than the ones from the stock camera. The port is definitely worth it and I hope M-rom keeps working on it.

I can't get regular photos to work with either apk. Video works, photos w/front camera work, but can't get rear camera to work. Any tips?

No idea, both versions work for photos for me (on one of them portrait mode doesn't start). I use both.

Can anyone post comparison photos between Gcam and original ?

Portrait mode doesn't work with portrait camera.

Maybe you can check if you turned the "raw+jpg" on or not. I tried this before and it won't work. Turned off then rear camera worked.

I've been able to easily install gcam for my Note 10S with the playstore app Gcamator

It use the BSG version and the appropriate xml config
Seem to works fine, I'm impressed by how photo quality is improved.

Has anyone figured out how to add more options to the main settings menu in v8.1 (or higher) at all? E.g. in the... focus, flash, google awb, timer and ratio menu. I'm trying to add an option to turn hdr on/off but cannot find a place to make this setting.

I seem to be on the same version as you Hesham-Abbas, but that option just isn't there. Maybe you have changed a setting in the 'developer settings' section?

when i use gcam i see camera lag, is there any way to fix it?

I tried the BGS version, I applied some logs as well, but there are still issues.
Anyone have a bugs free version or advice?
By bugs I mean, when going to the macro camera, app crashes and I need to uninstall and reinstall in order to work again. No way of choosing diff lenses for video, it's just dark.
Device not rooted btw.
Thank you,

The version shown in the screenshots in my last post works just fine for pretty much everything including the macro camera using chequebo1's config xml. Just disable the missing camera module option as it crashes if you try to select that one by mistake, you can remove the depth sensor camera too if not wanted, for reference they are camera modules 0.9 and 1.2 under settings>modules.

I am sticked between buying the regular note 10 and note 10s because of the chipset.
Snapdragon usually gets more custom support than MTK

This is everything related to HDR in the developer settings..
But, I think this is device/Chipset related..
I have Redmi Note 8 and my sister has Redmi Note 10. Both have Snapdragon..
I should have mentioned that earlier, SORRY..

Ok no problem, thanks anyway. Will check the settings you have posted just in case.

Question Best Miui-Camera?

Hey guys, are there any miui cams?
anx is the most popular one, i guess. is it fully working? and which add ons do we need to get it fully working?
is there also a stock miui cam?
i use a gcam atm, but found out that the 2x /zoom camera isnt´t working properly(focus never correct) so i wanted a miui cam as secondary camera app.
any recommendations?
and if anx, what do i need besides anx cam itself?
thx in advance

The 2x/zoom camera is not focusing properly because it is not a 2x/zoom camera, it is a macro camera that only focuses to around 4 cm. This phone doesn't have a tele camera. If you want to use a 2x zoom, you have to use a digital one or shoot at 108 Mpix and crop.

ah, so 2x is only digital zoom? i thought stock cam had it, but i don´t remember had too many phones in my hand

2x I suppose it's a crop from full resolution or more than the default.

@L-ViZ MIUI camera has zoom up to 10x, but it's all digital, and the macro camera has its own button in the menu (Super Macro). With GCam, it depends on port, version and config - some versions show you 0.6x, 1x and 2x buttons, which represent the three cameras, and so 2x is actually the macro camera. Some versions have 1x and 2x buttons, which serve simply as shortcuts for digital zoom of given level with the currently active camera (with up to 10x available via pinch zoom) and the switching between cameras/modules is done in a different way (and the macro camera might still be referred to as 2x or tele in that case). And then there are also versions which allow you to modify the UI to an extent and rename the individual modules, in which the macro module might be actually called "macro" or something like that.
You can tell quite easily if the button is for a digital zoom or switching to a different module - switching to a different module takes time and effectively restarts the app. Digital zoom is instant, with no pauses/black screen.

@Case_ thx for the datailled explanation

have you tried using the camera apk's found on the stock MIUI? I was able to pull CameraTools.apk and MiuiCamera.apk from mine. I haven't tried them yet, I'm waiting for my 7 days to be able to unlock and try different roms.

How did you try to install the apk? with adb install?

finaly passed the 7 days probation today and was able to flash my phone to Arrow OS 11 but couldn't install MiuiCamera failed dependency on cloud-common.jar and now don't have the original rom installed anymore to get it

@~JL~ I don't think MIUI Camera works on non-MIUI ROMs anyway. That's why ANX exists.

i am using A11, which anx cam is the best and working for a11, just read someone is still using 185R, since this seems to be the best working one. anyone got newer versions and which addons were used? thx in advance
