This one works, but wondering why the settings show front camera as 4MP as opposed to 16MP?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
If you don't have the front camera fix installed (or use a ROM that ships with it), the 3T front camera is limited to 4MP (16MP binned pixels > 4MP) no matter what the app says. The OP3 uses a different sensor and is able to use the full 8MP.

If you have the fix installed, then maybe Urnyx05 is using the new code from Arnova8G2 which uses the true resolution supported by the phone. Since the fix stretches the image to 16MP, files will have the real 4MP resolution. This already happens on the latest test version from Arnova for our phones. I can't test because I don't have a 3T.

For now, if you need 16MP (and have the fix installed), versions from Tolyan or older versions are probably a better choice. In any case, I don't think you'll see a drop in quality with 4MP: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76861245&postcount=5101

Edit: this new "real resolution" change also increases our rear camera resolution from 16.1 to 16.3MP and OP3's front camera resolution from 8.0 to 8.1MP.

I think this change is to extract more from sensors on new phones with bigger resolutions. In our case, on the OP3 both cameras resolutions are increased, while on the 3T the rear camera increases but the front camera stays at 4MP.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
We use versions from Arnova8G2 and Tolyan (and skulshady, ivanich before) because they include code that allows GCam to work without the front camera fix. This is useful because not everyone is rooted.

Some versions from devs like San1ty, back.rider, Urnyx05, etc, also work on our phone because they sometimes use Arnova's or Tolyan's work as base. They might not be optimised for our phone, some things might not work (eg: tracking autofocus on this version from Urnyx), but they'll work.

With the fix even many versions from BSG work... sadly they aren't optimised for OnePlus devices.

Not bad for a 3 year old phone. :)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Basche:
Thank you for the explanation. I appreciate it. I did notice the current 4MP front camera quality is not as bad, maybe from the real quality as you mentioned. Also, I see the rear camera set to 16.3MP. So far eveything looks good. Thanks again for the help

[MENTION=4487956]S4turno[/MENTION] but front camera fix is only for 16 MP or for others too, like HDR etc?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Leoxur:
I also use arnova/toolyan because we can set this, to shot excellent shot on nightsight. And to set custom value for denoise
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Leoxur:
This is an example of shot in almost dark room, a shot in hdr+ 1/8” iso 5100; a shot nightsight mode 1/3” (off mode) iso 3889; a shot nightsight 2,64" iso 393.

Look at the noise and details accuracy

Update from Arnova8G2: GCam 6.1.021 - Advanced v1.6

- Gcam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.6.190614.0200.apk (mirror) (Arnova8G2, 2019-06-14, changelog)

Settings:

We can use the same config file from the previous versions. This config should be good enough for daily usage:

- celso_arnova_1.4.xml

- How to import config files

Notes:

- Now GCam loads libs from github (when we click on "get updates") reducing the apk file size and allowing new libs to be used without updating the apk file.

- If night sight + front camera crashes, disable "Sabre" and restart the app.

- To improve quality at a speed cost, increate the "hdr+ parameters".

- To use Pixel AWB, enable it in the settings menu and change the back camera "model" to "Pixel 3 XL".

ARCore & Playground:

- New Playground (Android 9+) update from Arnova8G2. Changelog.

Update from Arnova8G2: GCam 6.2.030 - v2.1

- Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_V2.1.190614.0200.apk (Arnova8G2, 2019-06-14, changelog)

Settings:

This version doesn't support config files, so we have to do it manually. For the OP3/3T we need these changes:

Under "HDR+ Settings":

1. Change the "Front camera" model to Nexus 6P.

2. HDR+ Control menu:

- RAW Format: RAW10 (Default)

- Image Format: YUV_420_888 (Default)

(Optional) To enable "motion" features (motion photos, tracking autofocus, etc):

1. Under "Photo" > Advanced: Enable "Motion function"

The rest is up to you. Restart the app to apply the changes.

Notes:

- Android 9+ only.

- If night sight + front camera crashes, disable "Sabre" and restart the app.

- To unlock "advanced" settings, go to About > Advanced. This adds a lot of settings.

- Donate to Arnova8G2: https://xdaforums.com/donatetome.php?u=4860033

Known issues:

- Tracking autofocus can't be disabled. Arnova8G2 is aware.

Theres no option to use pixel 3 white balance or is it enabled by default?

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 PM ----------

front cam pictures are all green
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
Both problems are caused by you not reading the post.

- Green photos are fixed by using the settings I said we need to use.

- There's a Pixel AWB setting, if you enable advanced settings.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] karkiankit:
i see thanks , i thought we were supposed to use fron camera fix as before, its fixed now thanks
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
Regarding the 4MP limitation on the 3T front camera even when the front camera fix is installed:

According to Arnova8G2, the front fix needs to be installed before GCam, otherwise GCam will only use/report 4MP. If you have this problem:

1. Remove GCam.

2. Install the front camera fix module and reboot your phone.

3. Install GCam and load the "stable" xml config file (GCam 6.1) or manually change the settings (GCam 6.2).

4. You should see "15.9"MP for the front camera.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeUbermensch:
Is it impossible to have slow motion working on the latest 6.2 with android pie without breaking low light pictures? If I install the slowmo fix my low light photos turn out very dark and unusable.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] pedritopl:
Any idea why the Magisk and files-* versions of the fix contain two libs (libmmcamera_s5k3p8sp.so & libmmcamera_imx179.so), while the TWRP version has three? The additional one in TWRP version is libmmcamera2_mct.so - is it needed or not?

Another question - I'm using NLOS-16.0 (without the fix installed manually, but maybe the ROM has it?) and in Tolyan's 6.2.030 0.1c - in app settings I see the front camera resolution set at 15.9 megapixels, but the photos are still 4 megapixels. What am I missing here?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
The 3rd file is not needed. We never updated the TWRP zips, that's why it's there. It doesn't do anything though, so it's fine.

Regarding the resolution, assuming that you have the front camera fix installed, it should be 15.9/16MP and not 4MP. I can't test because I don't have a 3T. By the way, keep in mind that NLOS doesn't include the fix.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] phoberus:
Using GCam 6.2 and the v1.1 magisk module fix for a long time. Updated to this version and deleted app-data, but only see 4MP

3T with LineageOS 16
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
Arnova8G2 created a very simple version for PixelExperience ROMs and it works well on our phone. There's no advanced settings, similar to what Pixel users have. Android 9+:

- GoogleCameraPe_6.2.030.244457635-fix.apk

Don't expect anything to be fixed on this version though.

Tolyan009 released a version based on the old GCam 3.2. I'm not sure why would anyone use this over recent versions, but here's the link anyway. It should work on very old Android versions (eg: Android 6 or 7):

- MGC_3.2.045_TlnNeun_v1.0b_B-S-G-based.apk
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
If instead of updating the app you remove it and install it again, does it work? (I don't think it will, but...)

If you're able to do a screen recording that shows the fix installed, you installing the app, and the 4MP limit, I can send it to Arnova. I can't do it myself because I have a OP3, which is not affected by the 4MP limitation.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tfae:
Try the fix made for HavocOS (use search).

I'm using the latest GCam 6.2 from Arnova with the fix on my 3T running Resurrection Remix with no problems.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] pedritopl:
OK, thanks for the explanation.

So what I did was to remove the unused file from the TWRP version of the fix zip, flash it in TWRP, check the camera output (still 4MP), remove the app completely, reboot, install again, check the output. The result is still the same - the app shows 15.9MP for the Front Camera and 16.1MP for the back camera in the settings, but the Front Camera pictures are still 4MP.

Not a huge problem for me though. It's been like that for some time now.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] phoberus:
Yes, that's the way I update the GCam versions every time. Made a screen record: my google drive

I have the normal fix installed and it worked perfectly before (not the one for havoc).

3T with LineageOS 16
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
If you install the Camera2 Test app, does is show the 4608x3456 resolution on the front camera? Arnova8G2 can't reproduce this on his 3T (screenshot sent by him), also running LineageOS 16.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] grotesque02:
Same here, sometimes front camera take 4 MP.

NitrogenOS, magisk front fix, no slow motion fix.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] phoberus:
My screenshot

raw_sensor isn't the right value, but jpeg is.

All other info from the app are in the attachment
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
That means that the fix isn't being applied.

I talked with Arnova8G2 and he said that OnePlus introduced a change to protect the vendor partition, stopping changes from being made. Apparently other OnePlus phones are having the same problem. Since you're using LineageOS and if this is true, I assume you have flashed the new Pie firmware (9.0.x)?

Remove the module and install the one attached, start over again with GCam, and see if the Camera2 Test app shows the correct resolution.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] pedritopl:
Hell yeah! That fixed it for me.

OP3T, NLOS-16.0, MGC_6.2.030_B-S-G-based_v.0.1с.apk. Didn't have to reinstall the camera app as already before it was reporting 15.9MP in the app configuration, but the photos were 4MP. Now 15.9MP photos are saved after applying this Magisk fix v1.2 :)

PS: last thing that doesn't work on my setup is the Front Camera Night Mode.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
Nice. This module ignores some SeLinux rules, just like the slow motion one. It was modified by Arnova.

I'll wait for more confirmations, if no one reports issues I'll update it to bump the version number and then we can use it for Pie ROMs.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] rdNNNN:
FYI, the quality and actual spatial resolution is the same between 16 and 4 MP. You can compare by yourself. It always uses pixel binning for the front camera. 16 mp is merely upscaling the 4mp raw data to 16mp jpeg
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] pedritopl:
Looking at the 16MP picture in max zoom - I think You're right. I think it was always like that, even on old v5 camera and Nougat/Oreo.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] phoberus:
No, I'm on the oreo firmware and the last compatible LineageOS version.

The fix works for me too, thanks S4turno and Arnova8G2 :)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tfae:
Are you sure that this fix by [MENTION=7606633]3liteking148[/MENTION] wasn't enough?

That's the one I'm using since it was released and no issues since then.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
It doesn't include these two files, which are the original "front camera fix" created by defcomg/savitar:

libmmcamera_imx179.so

libmmcamera_s5k3p8sp.so

These two files are needed to 1) "unlock" 16mp on the 3T and 2) support GCam versions from modders (eg: B-S-G) that don't include special code for our phones*.

(* Before this fix, there was no HDR+/advanced features on our front camera. Only after a while, Arnova managed to support our front camera without any fix needed. Since most modders have other phones, their versions wont work on our phones.)

If you have a 3T and are able to take 16MP photos with the front camera, then maybe your ROM already include these two modified files. ROMs like Havoc do this.

Ideally we would have 1 module with both these files and the ones from 3liteking148's "slow motion fix" module, but the slow motion files cause issues on some GCam versions or slow down the camera start up time on some ROMs. That's why we have 2 modules: "front camera fix" and "slow motion fix". People are then able to use both or just one of them.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
[MENTION=9262827]MarcAnt01[/MENTION] is going to submit the "front camera fix" module to Magisk repo so we can download it from inside Magisk Manager, but it requires a "template" upgrade.

Since we both don't have any 3T, please try it [MENTION=5499170]phoberus[/MENTION] [MENTION=6561751]pedritopl[/MENTION] [MENTION=3570915]grotesque02[/MENTION]. Remove the old one, install the new, make sure photos are 16mp.

As soon we have positive feedback, we have to wait and see if it gets accepted on Magisk's repo.

Thanks
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pablo.x:
Just installed this module (uninstalling the previous one, v1.1) and I can select 16mpx on GCam settings. Selfies are 16mpx too.

hi I am using Oxygen Os 9.0.3 and installing both the front cam fix and slow motion fix doesn't helps me to record in slow motion. Because as soon as I click on record button the viewfinder gets stuck on my OP3T and when I stop it comes back to normal... any suggestions would be appreciated...
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
It depends on which apk you're using. Some use 240fps for slow motion by default and it causes crashes because our phone only supports 120fps.

Check the settings menu, see if there's a setting to change this. If not, try this version and use the provided config file. It should work well.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] yudi.15:
I have used multiple apk's from Arnova and Tonylan but none of them work. All of them freeze the screen for a few seconds on slow motion when record button pressed. I know our phone supports 120fps and I have set it in settings as well but still in vain...
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] smartpr1v4t3:

It works fine for me on OOS Camera but it never worked on GCam by default.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] smartpr1v4t3:
At the moment not, it doesnt matter installed fix or not.

As i remender it worked for me on an older version without fix but dont know which version it was.

Could there be a problem because i debloatet all google apps? Except Play Store.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pablo.x:
It has nothing to do with.

There are like 2 kind of magisk modules: one for slow motion and another one for front cam...

AFAIK those two modules (even integrated in one) don't work well together, so... you'll have to choose (or activate and deactivate them when you want)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] smartpr1v4t3:
Ah ok i use both of them. Will try only slow motion fix alone.

Would it help to install one of them via twrp instead of magisk?

Edit:

Also with disabled Front Camera fix and enabled SlowMotion fix it is not working.

Can i check any logs for this problem?

GCam-6.2.024-cstark27-Urnyx05-MarcAnt01Minimalv2.0.apk

New GCam based on Urnyx mod based on Cstark.

This is a lite version for those who need a faster and reliable experience with GCam on OnePlus 3/3T.

What I did:

- Added support for OnePlus 3/3T;

- Fixed Photobooth (thanks to Urnyx05);

- Preset the best settings and removed them (Pixel 3A XL model on backcam for faster processing and Nexus 6P for better quality on 3/3T)

This Gcam gives you some nice Pixel 3 features, like AWB, Top Shot, Photobooth and Focus Tracking. Furthermore, for those who like to take photos with manual settings, you can enjoy manual controls.

A big thank to [MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] and [MENTION=9040262]Urnyx05[/MENTION] . Without them this GCam wouldn't be here.

Known issues: slowmotion isn't working neither with slowmofix

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
If we use a custom lib, quality should be more or less the same across the different apks.

One thing that some modders still need to fix/improve is touch to focus on 6.2. It's broken on many versions.

Edit: Test version from Arnova based on 6.2.030 link.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Flixe101:
What do you think is the best custom lib for our device?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nagi_007pk:
Stock Google definitely!

I've been using the stock Google libs for a while. The pictures are generally noisier but the dynamic range in well lit conditions as well as the balanced color output coupling it with the pixel awb by far generates the most crisp photos I've taken in a long time. Haven't fiddled around with other libs as much as these. Would definitely recommend the 6.2 apk from Tolyan with stock Google libs and post editing Snapseed has worked wonders! Can't imagine that a 3 year old phone camera with not the highest aperture can produce such detailed contrasty looking pictures. Two thumbs up for everyone that have made the Google camera a perfect replacement for the stock camera app.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
Google's stock lib is the safest option in terms of colours and noise.

Right now I'm using "Eszdman:Xtrme v3" on Arnova's 1.6 (GCam 6.1) and while there's more noise, dark areas aren't as dark as stock.

I can't suggest one because not only I haven't tested them all, but also because no lib will make everyone happy. I like detailed photos even if that means more noise while others hate noise and prefer softer images... so I suggest everyone test each lib and use the one they like the most.

Something to note about libs is that they behave differently on different phones, so don't trust (do your own tests) what people with other devices recommend using.

The instructions are on the main post. You should read them.

Regarding the version, also on the main post there are "testing" and "stable" versions. Pick one and use it. If it doesn't work, try the second one, and so on.

I doubt OnePlus 3/3T users can recommended an app for a phone they don't own. Check your phone's forum, try to find the GCam thread and see what they're using.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] rdNNNN:
I think a toggle for tracking focus would fix that issue, since it only happens in apks with that feature enabled
