I'm totally in... I was really looking a way to help this guy from so long... Hitting thanks is not much i've done.. This guy has really taken my 3T camera to a whole new level.. I campare images taken with iPhone X and it's camera is not even close to this gcam in my mobile...

I will be more than happy to help in this

S4turno could you please set donations link on the first page and I'm sure we'll all get money together in no time. There's enough of us 3T users here who would love Arnova8G2 to have the phone that he could actually do tests on.

Thank you.

Don't do anything for now as we may have to send him the phone ourselves. In that case we need a phone from an European seller to avoid issues with customs... Ebay could be a good choice because we can pick the seller, enter his address, and benefit from their buyer protection if something happens.

I'll post here if he accepts.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
Edit: Phone delivered.

Arnova8G2 said that it would be easier and faster to fix issues and since he prefers to receive the phone, I went ahead and ordered an OnePlus 3T (A3003, 64GB, Gunmetal, used) from Ebay and sent it directly to him. Our phones (3/3T) have the same issues, so it doesn't matter if it's a 3 or 3T.

To avoid problems, I picked a seller with a good rating (they're also a store) instead of choosing the cheaper option. In total I paid 165.10 EUR (phone + post) and it should be delivered between the 3rd and 12th of December. Here's the receipt from ebay.fr (it was cheaper there for some reason).

Keep in mind that this is to help Arnova8G2 fix our issues quicker, but we can't expect everything to be fixed... After all our phone has some limitations.

Donate:

If you're able to help, here's my PayPal: paypal.me/celsoazevedo. Or you can use Patreon or LiberaPay (not sure if they support one time payments though).

(I might refuse the donation if PayPal fees are too high. For very small transfers, it's not worth giving PayPal ~40% of the donation. Screw them.)

We still need:

Thanks everyone for the donations, I've updated this post with all donations I received. I can't associate some of the names with nicknames, please send me a message if you want me to use your nickname instead of real name (or if you want to remain anonymous).

In case donations go over the amount I paid for the phone, I'll use the money to pay for the server hosting the GCam apks (now serving over 140TB every month).

I received an email from the seller. The phone was shipped and should arrive on Monday:

If the phone is indeed in good condition (I hate to buy used stuff online...), we should see less buggy versions as Arnova will be able to see for himself what's broken.

I think this was a good decision that will benefit 3/3T users. Now have two devs (him and Tolyan009) with this phone, which is important because we lost some of the users that used to test new versions.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] neil.richard:
Works like a charm on OP3 running stock OOS 5.0.7 .

I'm presently running both the latest 6.1.021 version by Arnova and the last Tolyan 5.3.015 final fix. I was surprised at the few settings options in Arnova's latest version. Haven't run one of his in a long time.

What settings do I use to make the camera quality have similar softness to Oyxgen OS camera, so there is less noise?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sptz:
Any way to have the front facing camera save the photo as it displays whilst taking it? As in, mirrored?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
That's the problem with GCam 6.x. It's not 100% stable yet.

Google Camera produces, by default, very sharp/crisp photos. That's why we get better details with it: they don't smooth out everything.

In any case... both Both Arnova's v8.3b1 and Tolyan's v1.0.15_final_fix (main post) have this menu. If I remember correctly, using higher values for "custom sensor noise scale a" increases smoothing.

Some versions also have a "Nexus 6P model" setting... it removes less noise, so keep it disabled.

Google Camera doesn't support that.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tfae:

I've added your name to the list. Thank you!

I paid ~165 euros and received ~115 so far. If more users decide to chip in, I could reduce my €50 "donation" and use it to pay for my server (GCam hosting).

So it's up to users. If you use this port and can afford to send a few bucks, I'll accept the donation. If not, that's okay too.

The results will be unpredictable unless you reboot your device because of OP3 Camera2 API bugs. Please try that.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] S4turno:
No idea. If this XDA blog post is right, it doesn't work because "The Google Camera port seems to make use of the Hexagon 680 DSP in these Snapdragon SoCs, so no equivalent Exynos or Kirin SoC will be capable of using this port (sorry, international Samsung or Huawei/Honor users!)"

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kartike:
This is confirmed working on OP3/3T and 5.

Everything works properly you need to tweak the developer setting in the app settings so that everything could work as expected. Working - hdr+ with zsl, smart burst, raw, 60fps video recording, slow motion etc.

Here's a video showing everything you need to do step by step : [youtube]sOER0T5Z1NU[/youtube]

NOTE : FOR SLOW MOTION TO WORK YOU NEED TO ROOT YOUR DEVICE WITH MAGISK AND INSTALL A MODULE.

To significantly reduce the processing(capture time for her+) time you could set the buffer time to either 1 or 3 and restart the app. But the application crashes more if you do so.

On the Oneplus 3 using the tolyan v1.0.15 final, I can't seem to find a good sweet spot for Auto Exposure Correction. The suggested settings listed in the XDA make pics look nice in the day, but in dark situations, it's a pretty noisy - and red tinted mess. I tried messing with the auto Exposure Correction, and it seems setting the correction to 1Sec will reduce noise in the dark but In the day selfies and some back cam photos too end up pretty over exposed. I tried to reduce the correction, and even left it off as the suggested settings say, but then the dark photos still end up noisy and red. Any suggestions?

Yes but I'm not a photographic expert, I just made some test (only in low light), i took different photos of different object in my house with both camera and take teh max crop to see the noise, with teh other version i always noticed sharper photos with less noise compared to 5.3 version, yesterday i noticed more noise (and savitar was by the way teh worst).

But as I can said before, I'm not a photographer and I haven't done a deep test, so don't take my word as reliable. Today I'm going to try again with more light to see teh difference

An example, look the photos

In this order 5.3, 6.1 Eszdman, 6.1 Google, 6.1 savitar

You can notice a lot more noise in the last one

Arnova8G2 received the OP3T today!

He told me that the phone is working well and already sent me a test version that works well on Oreo. It's not a finished version yet, there's a bug/crash affecting video recording and some lag after taking pictures (that's why it's not a public version), but it's an improvement over past versions from him: no viewfinder lag, night mode works, etc.

Now we just have to wait until he's ready to release a new update. Since now he has the phone to test, new updates should be less buggy on the 3/3T.
