Hello guys, today I bring you the latest version of Gcam for Redmi Note 9. Although MediaTek Helio G85 isn't the best processor to run Gcam, I could find a version created by BSG that works very well. All three back lenses are working fine, you can make a different config for each lens.
Working: Portrait Mode, Panorama, Photosphere, Night Mode, Slow Motion, HDR+ and all lenses.
Not working: Astrophotography (doesn't crash, but the picture is terrible) and Time Lapse.

As we all know the POCO X2 has one of the best sensor i.e. IMX686 for its main shooter but the jpg conversation algorithm of stock camera is not upto the mark. Stock cam images are slightly over saturated, Little bit warm in tint, and when you zoom in; the details of textures looks like oil painted and not that much accurate and sharp to the edges. Though its completely software dependant thing so can be improved.
Also front camera of POCO X2 is not upto the mark its having f2.2 aperture, due to which details and textures capturing is just average in selfies .
To enhance the camera performance of POCO X2 to get full advantage of IMX686 we can use GCam. As the GCam is modified application for few perticular devices it's hard to find the perfectly working gcam port for our device. (Though as per my observation on several popular smartphones, GCam ports works best on Nokia smartphones the condition is you should have to search a lot for perfect mode.)
For POCO X2 as per posted on Gcam Port Hub there are multiple working GCams available; but the problem is final image production from those modes are different, some are over sharpen, some are to soften, some looks too artificial, some are very good but poor in capturing details, some are good at low-light and some at daylight.
So as i tried gcam ports of almost all top developers on POCO X2; here are some of the versions that i found good in major aspects.
MGC_7.3.020_Parrot043-v2.apk
DMGC_7.2.018_ver.3.15.apk
HyperCam-RaizenA-10.apk
POCOX2_F1v9.6_6.2.030.apk
:
Also some users are using PixelCam_Plus_V2.0.apk and UltraCVM_v5.apk but i didn't find both of this that much good, might be I don't know the good settings for them.
For the 7.4.x version for POCO X2 i tried NGCam_7.4.104-v1.0_gcam.apk which is working fine and images of it are fine.
So if anyone find any other better GCam modes that are working good on POCO X2 then please share it in this thread. Also can suggest best settings, libs and .XMLs here.

Found this one on redmi 9's forum, valla! It works on redmi note 9 and it supports UW and macro. Got it tested quickly, concering the main lens it gives a pretty close results to gcam, almost the same. Ultrawide works flawlessly, it offers much better results than the stock cam. Night sight not efficient. portrait works fine. Front cam gets you better slightly better selfies than stock/gcam. A bit laggy but it's okay
*Note: you can switch to UW with 2X and macro to 0.6X*
Use it with the redmi note 9 config. /storage/emulated/0/trCamera/XMLConfigs/

Nikita GCam Port 7.4 - CYANOGEN MODS
www.cyanogenmods.org
Hello, does anyone else experience the lag in photo mode? Does anyone know how to fix it
Installed it in poco m4 Pro. It is working but feels janky. Too many frame drops as well. But it's working.
M4 pro uses Mediatek Helio G96. It can be in it. But 5g version should be much faster.
Hi all,
New account here (couldn't log to my old one but had to share)
I'm currently using a Redmi Note 10 5G
Stock on Miui 12.5.1 Global Stable.
MTSLCam_V7.1
With THIS Gcam : https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-mtsl/f/dl7/
I'm using the SNAP version (but Google Should also work fine)
I had to modify a few fields in the Developer Settings to have "everything" (that I tested) work.
Will upload the XML later (with just these modifications, no color or noise things done)
But if you want to try right now you should apply these changes in the developer settings.
Untick :
camcorder.covec_video
-> This is for video recording and if i remember correctly timelapse / slowmotion
Untick :
camera.cuttle.glpreview
zsl_ns
-> This is for night mode crashes
I'm not a developper I just gathered some information from the different telegram groups.
Enjoy !
Hi all,
redmi note 10 5g
Nikita Gcam. I am on version Version 1.7 based on version 8.2.300 of google camera.
Here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-Nikita/
Only one thing to change: uncheck "camera.cuttle.glpreview" in "Developer Settings" to have the night photo.
Everything works

Could you check if time lapse works on your phone? I've just tried it on mine and it doesn't, the rest seems to work OK

I asked how to have the timelapse for Redmi note 10 5G device but it seems that it cannot pass on our device. I searched and I found a paid app on play store which does intervalometer and in addition takes control of GCAM ;-) it costs a little more than 1€ and I no longer worry about finding a solution. (it works perfectly for all gcam modes).
here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobilephoton.intervalometer
I'm just waiting to have no more cloud in France to test outside and especially for the stars ;-)

Are you talking about Astrophotography timelapse ? or just video timelapse ?
If I remember correctly there is a GCAM with a feature that makes a timelapse when you shoot an astrophoto, but I never could make it work.
But normal timelapse works fine on MTSL

Timelapse on astrophotography. Not on video. It takes the number of photos I want with the interval I want.

Connect to gcam telegram group, and try version u prefere. 8.1.1 GSM should work fine on your device
Is there a Gcam for LineageOS 19.x GSI?
I can't find a suitable Gcam at the moment
thx
Dear all,
I just got a Samsung S20 FE 5G (internally SM-G781B/DS) which I bougt mainly because I wanted a smartphone with SD Card an a telephoto lens.
After some test shots I'm quite confused about when it uses the tele lens and when it "zooms" in software.
When I switch to 3x it images often are blurry and exif data says Digital zoom: 3.0x
Sometimes they look ok.
In both cases image dimensions are 4032x3024 pixels while aperture is either f/1,8 (software) oer f/2,4 (hardware). As I read from the specs, the resolution of tele camera should be lower.
So it looks like it is not reliable if it does use software or hardware zoom and always uses some "pixel invention".
I tried to use Open Camera and Gcam, but the can't find tele camera.
Does anybody know why this happens and if there is a way to definitely use tele lens with it's real solution?
Hi,
This phone "decides" when to actually use telephoto depending on distance from the object and amount of light it has.
Basically It mostly won't use telephoto for objects 1meter closer and if you're taking photos in night.
Try taking photo of something far, like a landscape in the day, after 3x zoom it should switch to telephoto, you can test it by covering the lens with your finger.

It has telephoto camera, aka 3 times zoomed in in comparison to main camera hence zoom camera. Btw no one said it does have hardware zoom.
I noticed worse quality photos after last update and also that 3x varies between the cropped main camera or telephoto camera. Maybe depends on the light conditions.
