*UPDATE September 4th 2022*
Ported over my AGC config from my S22U. Since AGC supports multiple profiles, this config includes both sharper and softer profiles depending on personal preference.
*UPDATE July 29th 2022*
Thanks @Matzinger87 for his AGC config. Updated link with AGC v9.1. The config for v9 will still work with 9.1. Also temporarily removed Shamin's build since it's kinda old now and Arcide has moved to LMC for his configs. Since I usually port his configs, I have now added links to LMC r12 Fixed with config.
*UPDATE July 3rd 2022*
Updated config/lib for AGCv7. AGC v8 has a serious bug for the S22 Ultra so I haven't updated the app on my phone. I think the S21 Ultra doesn't have the same issue but I'm basically making the configs blind based on my phone.
*UPDATE May 11th 2022*
Sorry guys but my main phone is the S22 Ultra now so I won't be so quick to update this thread. With that said, for the most part configs are quite easily adapted from that phone and this phone so I can still update this. Updated the thread with AGC v7. I put both the AGC config for the S21U and S22U in that ZIP folder so remember to load the correct one.
*UPDATE April 9th 2022*
Minor update. Updated link to Shamin 8.4.4v20. Updated XML to fix stream configuration freezing from the last XML and also loaded Mattias's noise models into the config.
*UPDATE April 7th 2022*
Updated link to latest Shamin 8.4.4v19 Fixed build. This build fixes custom noise models as well as the lib loader. Also updated the config based on Arcide's 1.6 config. This does not require any libs as the lib patcher handles all of the modifications needed.
*UPDATE April 1st 2022*
Updated link to latest Shamin 8.4.4v17 build. While he did re-add the options for manual noise models, it doesn't seem to work correctly. He also added the upscale option (up to 5x super resolution). Meaning the 12mp cameras can now take 60mp photos. This is not the same as unbinning (108mp mode) on stock camera as that actually does things differently at the sensor level. This is closer to just using Photoshop to increase resolution so there won't be much more detail (though the increase can help things like noire patterns and texture details). Also updated XML to use Arcide's latest 1.4 config as base and increased sharpness further.
*UPDATE March 29th 2022*
Updated link to latest Shamin 8.4.4v14Fixed build. XML for this one is based on Arcide's XML from March 26th. No additional lib needed. If you prefer libs though (like SLib), disable lib patcher first and then load the lib. Also removed LMC build since Shamin's latest builds already includes the extended lib patcher that was in LMC as well as additional viewfinder options.
*UPDATE March 20th 2022*
Updated link to latest Shamin 8.4.4v12 build. This build adds a few more options in the lib patcher as well as viewfinder options that can be enabled. It also re-organized the auxiliary camera buttons. Also replaced a few libs in the 8.4libs folder. My XML for this one has lib patcher disabled and optimized for SLib by Whymexd. If you think it has too much noise and prefer Arcide's lib, don't download SLib and just enable lib patcher again as those values are from Arcide.
*UPDATE March 13th 2022*
Updated link to latest Shamin 8.4.4v10Fixed build. Updated link to the 3-10 Arcide lib for Shamin.
*UPDATE March 4th 2022*
Updated link to latest Shamin 8.4.4 v9Fixed build. Shamin has been releasing a lot of updates quickly but nothing that would have major impact on our phones. Also updated the 8.4lib file with the latest Arcide lib.
*UPDATE February 26th 2022*
Updated my AGC XML with better colors. Thanks @Matzinger87 for pointing out that interface pixel 5 has accurate system colors and is still able to do night mode with the latest AGC build.
*UPDATE February 26th 2022*
Updated links for Shamin 8.4.4 v7Fix (changelog says he added some code from AGC build). Also updated the 8.4 GCam Lib zip file with Arcide's newest 2/26/2022 lib with ISO unlocked and merge method set to default. And lastly, I updated the AGC XML file. I'm getting better results just leaving lib patcher disabled and relying solely on Arcide's lib while tweaking noise via the noise coefficient value.
*UPDATE February 24th 2022*
Updated links for AGC 8.4.3 v6 and Shamin 8.4.4 v7! Might need to uninstall old AGC build to install the new one. More lib patcher options added on both GCams.
*UPDATE February 18th 2022*
Couldn't upload the LMC APK for some reason so I zipped it up and uploaded the zip file instead. LMC 8.4 GCam is from the modder Hasli who used Shamin's 8.4.300v26 build as base and worked with others to add even more features and fixes. It supports loading lib files as well as individual per lens lib patcher and custom lib patcher values.
*UPDATE February 17th 2022*
Updated the 8.4 GCam lib zip file with some more lib files as well as an updated one by Arcide.
*UPDATE February 11th 2022*
Added links to UserX's Google Drive share of his many libs for both 8.4 builds and 8.1 builds. The names aren't descriptive and there are a lot of them, so if you have time, try them all and share which ones you like best!
Uploaded a new Shamin 8.4.400 build and removed the older 8.4.300v26 build since at this point, they're basically identical in features. Shout outs to KaKa, the creator of AGC GCam for helping figure out the color transform for this phone! Pixel 6 and newer interface is needed for night sight to work properly in these 8.4 builds but in the past, they had color issues. Manually setting the color transform resolves it and I have added it to the AGC and Shamin configs.
For anyone who encounters a future 8.4 build that has color issues, use these values for the color transform:
1.464844
-0.281250
-0.183594
-0.394531
1.347656
0.046875
-0.261719
-1.343750
2.605469
*UPDATE February 6th 2022*
New Shamin 8.4.300 v26 build uploaded. This time with a reworked lib patcher that works for all rear lenses. It did however lose the ability to have custom libs and manual noise models. The XML I uploaded it is modified from Arcide and Trolleflex's settings.
*UPDATE February 1st 2022*
Happy Lunar New Year everyone!
Alright, a couple of updates today. First is another Shamin update, but this time a new version build. His previous ones are based on GCam 8.4.300. The next one is an AGC GCam build by the modder Kaka.
*UPDATE January 30th 2022*
New Shamin build uploaded. Also modified Arcide's XML from previous builds. Increased noise reduction and contrast. Still has great detail and dynamic range.
*UPDATE January 24th 2022*
New Shamin build uploaded. Previous XML configs won't work and you'll need to clear cache/data. I've uploaded two XMLs for it this time. An updated one from Arcide that is excellent at retaining detail, ideal for slightly brighter conditions. The second config is by a user named Param which has slightly more aggressive noise reduction but looks in lower light conditions. It is also set for faster shutter priority so it is good for semi moving subjects.
*UPDATE January 24th 2022*
Reverting back to my previous way of updating this post. I'll refer to changes here but update the links below instead. BSG updated his 8.1 build which re-arranged the Stream Configs settings so I had to update my XML to support it. Also updated the XML for Shamin's 8.4 v24 to reflect Arcide's newer settings.
*UPDATE January 19th 2022*
Shamin is releasing almost daily updates at this point. This new build adds the ability to use custom noise models and fixes some bugs. The user Arcide has also released an XML that uses lib patcher values rather than relying on the lib file. Thus the XML attached is credited to him and looks and works great without needing to download any extra libs.
*UPDATE January 18th 2022*
New Shamin 8.4 GCam v23 APK. This is now the first 8.4 GCam build with working lib patcher, lib loader, and auxiliary cam support. You won't even need lib files if you are pro at configuring lib patcher. I'm not however, so my XML is still adjusted for the Arcide lib.
*UPDATE January 15th 2022*
Shamin 8.4 GCam v22. Stock lib this time because it has the ability to load custom 8.4 libs. To load custom libs, you'll need to put the lib file in the GCAM\Confgs8.4\Libs folder and then go to GCam settings > Additional Settings > Custom Library. What's awesome is it can be set per lens, meaning you can use a lib with less processing on the main camera with the larger sensor, and one with a bit more processing on the other lenses with smaller sensors.
*UPDATE January 6th 2022*
The first GCam 8.4 Build with working telephoto support for our cameras is from the modder Shamin. While we're all still waiting for BSG and Arnova to update their builds, this is a solid one to play with. Newer Pixel 6 features of course do not work right now. This Shamin built was downloaded from Celso's website but it didn't have the Samsung package name to enable the telephoto. I modified the package name and replaced the stock lib with one from the modder Arcide. Give it a try below.
*UPDATE October 31st 2021*
Most of the GCam developers are working on 8.3 builds so there hasn't been many updates. However, Arnova just released an update which is probably the final 8.1 build. A new way to share profiles via GCA file is introduced. I've updated my config for the Arnova build.
*UPDATE July 22nd 2021*
Updated link to newer BSG Public build. No significant changes but the changelog says photo quality should improve slightly. Also uploaded MWP-HDRv4.zip lib file.
*UPDATE July 13th 2021*
Wichaya's build was updated to v1.3 so I updated the link and XML file. Of the three, it now offers the best motion photo resolution. Also updated the Arnova config zip with the HDRfix XML.
GCam 8.4 Beta BuildsAGC 8.4 GCam v9.2 APK and Latest Config for it (Matt's Config here as well)
This one is quite interesting because it supports multiple different lib patcher configs per lens. Meaning that each lens can have their own separate configs, up to nine different ones per lens. It also supports a lib loader.
Steps to setup:
- Download and install the APK and give it the requested permissions
- Download the config and extract the zip file
- Load the config file for the S21U (swipe down > load configs)
- Import lib (go to settings > libraries > copy third party lib to app)
- Load lib (settings > libraries > load custom library)
LMC 8.4 R12 Fixed APK and XML for it (based on Arcide's 5.1 Config, no lib needed)
Has the most lib patcher options of any GCam 8.4. Works great and is very customizable.
The XML file has to be placed in the Internal Storage > LMC8.4 folder.
8.4 GCam Lib files that I like. They're made by users Arcide, Whymexd, r0m10, and UserX.
UserX's GCam 8.4 Libs Google Share 1 and Google Share 2
An amazing collection of library mods that are usable with the AGC build above. There's no description however so you kinda have to just test and see which you may prefer.
GCam 8.1 Stable Builds
Arnova Gcam-8.1.101.build-V6.2.211013.2159 and config for it
This new Arnova update supports GCA profile which is essentially an archive of the XML, noise profiles, and libraries which the GCAM will automatically extract into the proper locations. Download the attached ZIP, extract the GCA file, open up GCAM, give it the various permissions, and then load the GCA file in Settings > Advanced > XML config. After the GCA file is loaded, then load the XML that was extracted from the GCA.
Here's a step by step video:
Your browser is not able to display this video.
BSG Public Build MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1z and XML for it
New BSG build probably has the most options out of any GCam 8.1 builds out now. There are so many options that for those who are familiar with GCam tweaks, this would be the go to. The XML file goes into the Downloads > MGC_8.1.101_Configs folder.
Wichaya Build 8.1 version 1.5 and XML for it
Use the Wichaya_8.1_S21U.xml that's attached for this build. Wichaya might have less options enabled, but it is very stable and produces excellent image quality. If you do not know what all of the GCam RAM Patcher configurations do, start with this build
UserX's GCam 8.1 Libs Google Share
An amazing collection of library mods that are usable with the Arnova, BSG, and Wichaya build above. There's no description however so you kinda have to just test and see which you may prefer.
MWP-HDRv4.zip (attached)
This lib appears to work well for Wichaya and BSG builds. Credit to MWP. This lib is less contrasty and less saturated compared to the nNR70W19T28 one. Same deal, unzip the lib and load it with GCam.
What works:
All 4 rear cameras work.
Portrait mode also works with all 4 rear cameras.
Astrophotography works on main and ultra wide.
Telephoto can only do 1080p recording while main and ultra wide can do 4k (but can zoom further than 20x for video).
RAW DNG capture for all 4 rear cameras.
Doesn't work:
Front camera
Slow motion

Arnova, BSG, Wichaya for their stable 8.1 builds of course. If you like the builds, please donate via the links on the download pages.
Also now shoutouts to Shamin and Kaka for their work on 8.4 builds. I believe they also worked with the MTSL team.
Custom noise profiles for the Galaxy S21 Ultra - credit goes to user Matthias for creating them
Also to user Morgenman for simplifying the ability to create the noise profiles.
Lastly:
A few pictures taken by said GCam builds above
Update: never-ending, I got it. Needed to give full storage permissions.
Can't seem to get the xml you posted to stick. It's in the configs8 folder but it tells me the xml file exist when it's selected. Did download the samsung or snapcam version?
Where do I find the gcam/configs8 folder?

Got the same question, Samsung or Snap?
For me I get "did not install" for the Samsung version.
Snap installs, initially couldn't load an to XML files had to go to app permissions and give it full access. Now I'm getting the main cam and wide cam with some XML files but nothing with the one that was dropped in this thread earlier.

You have to use the Samsung version. If you got the did not install message, it means you need to uninstall the Samsung measure app first (uses the same package name). https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.android.ruler&cId=000004674180
Which XML file should I use? The one I used for gcam 7 seems not working properly. The viewfinder freezes after a few seconds.

Thanks, it works now. I didn't see the attachment file before because XDA client hides the attachments and shows the photo only.
First thanks for all the hard work to those involved. Anything I say below is not criticism of the work done and I appreciate it immensely when devs get these gcam apks out and working fairly well.
Is that photo attached fairly typical as it is a bit noisy and not very sharp for my taste (yes i probably pixel peep too much). I know you can adjust the settings and things will get fine tuned. I tried out the earlier version and found I couldn't tweak the noise to my liking and the freezing was really irritating. Sold the s21 ultra in the end but I caved when a new deal came up and bought it again now waiting for delivery. What would you say has improved over the last version other than the telephoto video and less freezing?
How are you guys finding this new version?
The viewfinder is blurry but the photos taken are fine, no idea what the problem is.

I'm part of Arnova's test group so I help send him logs to fix bugs for the S21U. The photo attached is 10x telephoto that stock would've not been able to match. You can certainly do your own comparison but stock processing has never been to my liking. Obviously the main camera will look much cleaner but I prefer telephoto range.
If you go to Arnova's thread, you'll see that there is now many different options to adjust picture quality (I dare say too many options). RAM Patcher is like the lib patchers of older GCam. Noise modelers are generated scripts that people have created for specific camera sensors. And the newest is lib files which can be downloaded. Old GCam required a modder to add libs, now you can load it kinda like an XML.

Go to settings > developer settings and disable camera.glpreview.
Yes it is certainly a lot better than stock in my opinion too thanks. I'll have a good go with it when my s21 ultra arrives. Thanks for all your hard work.
What about exy?
Anyone know if there's a way to disable the automatic night mode feature that's re-enabled every time GCam is opened? I searched through developer settings and didn't see any obvious candidates - disabling camera.promote_night_sight didn't do anything.

The feature you're looking for in developer settings is called catshark (yeah I know, makes zero sense lol)

Thanks! I figured it had to be one of the countless completely opaque feature codenames I saw when scrolling through the dev settings. Disabling camera.catshark_enabled.RESTART followed by a force-quit/restart did the trick!

Hi!
After a HUGE amount of work, it's finally here!
Raw Dumper is a simple camera app for taking RAW pictures on the Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML)
(Intel-based smartphones rocks!)
Q: What's a RAW picture?
A: Jpeg pictures are processed, meaning that multiple image processing algorithms (debayer, white balance, tonemap, sharpening, saturation, noise reduction, jpeg lossy compressing, etc) were applied; they usually retain about 1/10 of their original data.
A raw picture, however, is taken directly from the camera sensor and all captured data is preserved, leaving to the user the decision of how the image is going to look.
Since they retain all data, raw pictures occupy more storage space (A single raw 13-megapixel photo use 23 MB, on the Zenfone 2 ZE551ML).
Q: How is this possible?
A: There is a hidden camera parameter on Intel-based phones that does the trick. It's mentioned in a system library called Intel Camera Extensions (that library also enables other camera features). However, the raw feature doesn't need the library to work.
Q: The pictures captured with this app are really RAW?
A: Yes, because the captured data has the Bayer pattern, the right size and has a lot of lens shading around the image's borders (the app tries to remove the lens shading, so you probably won't appear in your photos).
Some important notes:
I'm not responsible for bricked phones, broken phones/cameras/images or thermonuclear war
It is REALLY experimental
It's currently being tested on Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) - but it should work on ZE550ML too
This app WILL NOT work on phones with non-Intel processors (Qualcomm, Samsung...)
It should work on Marshmallow stock rom
For working on custom roms that uses LL camera blobs (like Lineage OS), is required to patch the camera lib
It REQUIRES root (otherwise the camera subsystem will drain your internal storage by making another copy of every raw picture taken it in a root-only system directory; currently, there's no workaround to fix this )
The DNG pictures will be saved in /sdcard/DCIM/RawDumper (they can be opened using Snapseed, Darktable, RawTherapee and Adobe Lightroom)
It should work on the Razr I and Zenfone 5 too, but I haven't tested them properly because I don't own these devices
It only works with the Zenfone Zoom's front camera (the back camera requires the development of a specific custom kernel)

Wasn't Asus Zenfone 2 unable to capture RAW images due to the restriction from sensor of the camera itself?

Every picture you take using a digital camera was raw in some point of its processing. Of course, some camera sensors do all the processing inside and only dump the ready-made JPEG (this is not the case of the Zenfone 2). But, in theory all sensors (dumb VGA webcams, point-and-shoot cameras, DSLR professional cameras, smartphone cameras) could be capable shooting in RAW. In smartphones, most of the time, the limitation is on the camera software, not in the hardware. The Zenfone's (and other Intel) raw shooting ability is just a little bit hidden

It's quite simple, is just a simple camera app with lots of hardcoded stuff (I'm going to fix it, don't worry hahaha). I just wanted to publish something to show is possible to shoot in RAW on the Zenf2. I'm planning to clean up the code and add some nice manual/auto ISO and shutter speed in the next versions (I've tested and these features work perfectly with RAW )

I had some problems to use the C++ libraries on Android Studio. I can't install the NDK, it's weird...
Btw, great job enabling the raw shoot mode at this phone.

Thanks! I've updated the project to use the latest gradle plugin now, try updating Android Studio. NDK building is WAAAAAAY easier on the latest versions. If you need help, you can PM me
PS: I hate Android Studio hahaha
not working it's not compatible on my z00d mokee rom nightly 7.1.2, why?

I hate Android Studio at the update of NDK Libraries only. Android Studio is a great IDE despite of its slowly load times.

TIL! I've been searching for application that could take RAW format since Camera2 API was released, but all of them are not compatible with Zenfone 2. Looked up to the internet and most of them claimed that the hardware does not support taking photos in RAW format, then I eventually accepted it as a fact.
Thanks for the awesome application.
I try your app on my Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) with resurrection remix 5.8.3, but it won't install, is your app only for stock rooted firmware??
Sorry,but i can't find any photo i've taken and there is no menu at all

Because the sensor used in the Zenfone 2 ZE500CL is different. Unfortunately, the app needs some specific information about the camera sensor to generate the DNG files. However I'm planning to make the app smarter to get all this specific sensor info automagically so it could work on a wider range of phones

Bro please read the post. The versions mentioned in video is not fully functional(even described in video). Overall the points I mentioned its nowhere shown. I personally tested more than 30 Gcam mod including those 2 of video. You can test those sections even on those apps alongside other mod versions found here.
May i know whats the difference between those apk supports and Unsupported config file xml? I m on Stock Rom.. Unrooted, Fully stock. Nothing modified in my device. Which one will work fine?

Use cases of .xml file:
This can be used for a few things. For example:
Quickly switch between the best settings for low light and day light;
Use recommended settings from devs/other users for your phone;
Move between versions without loosing your settings;
Keep unstable features enabled on one config but disabled on another;

All the app mod mentioned above is for stock rom (with/without root,doesn't matter). All will work flawlessly.
What is config file?
Google Camera 6.1 versions support export/import of config(.xml) files, allowing users to use the settings of other users. You can also share your settings with other users to provide them best output. Besides this , you can quickly load different settings for different lightning conditions.
If you don't want to use any 3rd party settings, just use 6.2 versions.

I don't know if "thank you very much" is enough for this. I've been looking for a stable Gcam for realme 6 for a very long time. And this is the most stable version. I am very lucky. Keep it up bro.
Let me address some issues:
1. Night sight isn't working for front camera.
2. Face retouch for back camera (it is working in the front camera only)
Thanks again.

Since I bought the phone I have been using another mode for realme 6. The main thing I miss was the Asto mode. Thanks to this one, it works well. Also the noise reduction was far better compared to the previous mod during low light situations, which has been horrible. Really appreciate your work. Hoping for future mods and apps. In the next version please enable the option to manual controls fro HDR+ mode also so that we could use thisapp instead of stock app for manual mode.
Man, thanks for this mod! Hell of a job!

Where is astro photography mode i can't find it?

Hi,
I recently bought this device, but unfortunately, compared to my Pixel 3a, it's camera is really bad! Can someone please help me with a trustworthy GCam apk that works for it? Thank you!
(There are quite a few websites for it but I don't know which ones to trust)
There is another thread here, but try BSG or hasli's LMC with modifications.
I had several variants installed until now, but by far the best and most functional is the last iteration of nikita gcam 8.3. I will try to put the link here. (video in zoom cam still not working)

Just some tweeks by trial and error. I think the darkness was caused by enabling auto sunset or auto twilight (i don't remember the name exactly, it was a little icon above the camera selector toggle). As soon as i disable it the pics were considerably brighter.
Also I enabled and renamed the wide and zoom camera, set auto night mode. And that's about it.
Just trying a new variant. Looks even better and works with video for zoom cam. Also nightmode seems to be working better.

I made a config for the Edge 20 Pro. I reduced the contrast and sharpness while retaining detail. Also reduced HDR overall lightness.
The final image is brighter.
Edit: new config as of Dec 4
My updated config for Edge 20 Pro.
- well balanced exposure for all cameras
- reduced sharpness
- tweaked HDR and Expo Map to LUT
What you see in the viewfinder is the exact image you expect in post processing.

But if you meant what I use to update the config file, you just need to open Gcam and there is a settings under 'Modules'.
You need to manually update the config per lens (front, ultrawide, main and periscope).
New config file for Edge 20 Pro. I keep on updating since I am making the file optimized to different lighting conditions.

New config file.
This file is to lift detail in shadows especially when you are taking your subject against the light. Also good for portraits since Pixel's algorithm is too harsh on skin tones (make you look older than in real life).
Is there any way to activate the macro mode on the bsg version?

My very much tweaked config, latest version is shared here.
Every cam and many options are tweaked, including white balance, noise reduction, detail preservation etc.
I am still not 100% satisfied with white balance in all circumstances, but overall best so far.
White dots in ultrawide cam are somewhat corrected with luma noise reduction - much better but not gone.
The only problem I have with this version is with selfi cam - there is a color bleed between surfaces, see the example attached. But this is the problem I have with every gcam version 8 I have tried (version 7.3 does not have this issue). I cannot figure out how to fix it.
I hope someone else will test this cam and config
There are still many options I did not try and there is no good guide for this version, and no community to discuss problems and tweaks (the Telegram group I have has locked comments).
It is true - Motorola did not do the best job with this phone's camera and gcam cannot fix everything but I think this makes it usable.
Happy Holidays!
