Have dual pixel pdaf and the same or similar sensors to Pixel 2. The Samsung's Sony sensor is similar to the Pixel 2 but is a different model so there's a chance the PDAF distances may be different. I doubt they included these values with the camera2 API but you can check with the app camera2test.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mr. Orange 645:
Awesome! Thanks! By the way, your camera is the one that works best with my Note 8 that I've found. Thanks for everything.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Has_anDroid:
thanks works note 8 and s8+ my device fine and hdr high not work next version fix ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolguy:
Anyone know this? So I can use this for my daily driver.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
Don't know what version you're talking about, but if you don't see "Video Stabilization" option under quality settings then your phone may not be reporting EIS/OIS capabilities properly through the Camera2 API. My V30 for example has OIS and EIS working just fine in video. I found a camera2test info from a Note 8 user in a different thread and stabilization modes were reported as 0 and 0,0...

[MENTION=4860033]Arnova8G2[/MENTION] is it possible to force OIS/EIS on for phones that support it but don't report it correctly? I tried to test disabling OIS on my V30 but I must have done it wrong...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arnova8G2:
To enable EIS This will be displayed "Video Stabilization" option

persist.camera.eis.enable=1

persist.camera.is_type=4

And for EIS + OIS These codes are used in pixel 2

persist.camera.eis.enable=1

persist.camera.is_type=5

I read several source code of the camera none indicate persist.camera.is_type = 5 but persist.camera.is_type = 4

I am using this on my note 8 Verizon snapdragon. Yours is the Only app works potrait on front and rear cams beautifully :)

cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_rTaimen_fAngler_cTaimen_v2.apk

Also anyway to get 4k support too? Mine does 4k too.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] borijess:
This one worked right out the box for the note 8 Snapdragon 7.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolguy:
What is the difference between this and the one I used earlier? cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_rTaimen_fAngler_cTaimen_v 2.apk

This cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_rTaimen_fAngler_cTaimen_v 2.apk works fine for me for both front/rear potraits, so just wondering the difference w/ the one mentioned Google camera5.1.018.177470874.41362666?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] borijess:
Don't know just thought it was latest release.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] msohail_7:
SD had support earlier but Exynos got it recently.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] borijess:
So once the new app is updated we don't need to make any changes anymore for it to work on a Snapdragon note 8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] msohail_7:
I have exynos variant, whats the issue you are facing?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Guitarfreak26:
Portrait photos won't take for me on exynos. When I press the button it doesn't take :( anyone know how to fix it? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] borijess:
That is the whole thing I am not facing any issues. I just installed app and it worked without messing with any of the settings. This is for the snapdragon 835 7.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Try slow motion video.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] borijess:
Slow motion doesn't work. That's ok I will use stock for that. Unless u know of a setting I need to change.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Sorry Sir I don't know of a fix, but I hope they can get one other than that seems to work great. You are running late the latest exynos version 4 posted in this thread on snapdragon correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] borijess:
I am using this one. Is this the one u speak of?

I've actually had no luck with the rear camera even when shooting a person where the face is clearly visible.

I'm using a Note8.

Any solutions?

I should mention I'm using a snapdragon Note8
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
You are clicking the Portrait Mode shortcut from the slide out menu on the left right? It will change views a little and zoom in. Your top bar will change a little, too, most notable will be a new "X" icon on the left side.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] hassanmahmood:
Yeah it starts up portrait mode, and it'll take a portrait photo in that mode using the front cam - so basically it'll take two photos, one without and one with portrait mode.

With the rear cam it only takes one photo - no portrait mode effect applied.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] msohail_7:
Have you tried keeping the following setting mentioned in OP? If yes try clearing data of app and again setting up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolguy:
Anyways to keep only potrait photo and not the other? For every pic I have to delete the non potrait pics manually.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kv007:
rear potrait works only if it detects faces.....doesn't work on objects...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jasonG998:
still not fully working

I've tried all miniusers 123 versions and about 50 others for other phones b.s.g and arnova versions

all have problems i will list below

no 4k video option

no 60fps for 1080p

no slow motion

flash fires at incorrect time with HDR off

low light HDR shows purple haze in dark areas

no HDR in front camera

no touch to focus lasting for more than two seconds of hold on the area touched

what i have had working

blur/ portrait working on both cams and objects on back cam working good.

amazing HDR control over sky and bright lights not washing things out like stock samsung

super crisp photos on zooming in compared to over sharpened and too much noise reduction from samsung app

other photo effects work great that are in the options

has anyone found fixes for the above problems ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] msohail_7:
Yes it only works for faces. For objects you can switch to Lens Blur.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] msohail_7:
Soon they will be fixed. Developers are trying real hard to fix as many as they can. Be patient.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] cayrol92:
Can you add support for the 52mm telephoto lens and fix that circular noise in some photos, please?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] aakanayev:
Hey guys, I took Google Camera on Note8 vs Canon 6D Mark I comparison, and the results are kinda awesome.

I did an iPhone X vs Google Camera on Note 8 test sometime ago as well: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75040247&postcount=668 (not very in depth, mind you, just a few snaps)

So I had my Canon 6D mark I handheld with 24-105mm L f/4.0 IS kit lens in aperture priority mode, set to f/4.0 with automatic ISO and shutter speed, no exposure bias, in jpg. I first took two shots with HDR, and two without HDR. Also, Canon 6D mark I is notorious for producing a soft jpg out of the box, which is visible. Also, I might have had a case of shaky hands, but both cameras were handheld. Keep in mind that sharpness is usually much better when shooting in raw and throwing it in Lightroom. Obviously, if I shoot in raw and dedicate the time I will get better image quality out of 6D, even without bracketing, but that takes effort.

The whole idea was to see if it's really worth taking something like Canon 6D hiking (where weight matters), if I am not trying to do something specific (like long exposure, or proper 50mm bokeh portraits, or if real zoom for wildlife).

My question is this: do entry-level DSLRs (like Canon Rebel) in automatic mode actually get significantly better image quality than leading cellphones? Opinions?

Note8 was set to HDR+ enhanced, using cstark v3.1 apk.

Original 6D shots here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1C2LYsMXwEyGcMvDhY9-2ZXoriqwN6pPs?usp=sharing

Original Note8 shots: https://photos.app.goo.gl/W0NlxSTZlY20F8Is2

Note8 is always on the left, 6D is always on the right. I used OSX Preview on my mac, zooming both images to about the same size. Keep in mind that Note8 image is only 12MP, whereas 6D picture is 20MP from a full-frame sensor.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nameback:
Love this, I'd like to try and set this up on my Note 8. Is there any additional setup needed after downloading the apk? When I've tried this previously there's been a myriad of settings to configure.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] lagster:
If you're going to stick to automatic mode, not zoom, and not post process your raws, don't bring a DSLR. Based on your usage specs, DSLRs are the wrong device for you.

If you don't want to lug around all that gear, and are looking for something that provides better image quality than a mobile phone, you might want to look at compacts with larger sensors, like the Sony RX1R or RX100 cameras.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] hassanmahmood:
Any idea [MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
What app? Snapdragon N8? On any of the ports you need to take a picture of a person's face no matter what. Sounds like either there isn't a face in view, or your phone isn't recognizing a face for some reason. You could turn in the developer option faceboxes and see if a square shows up around a face I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] aakanayev:
No, just use that app by cstark27: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1D4TpsrruTf9vRHOzorYMwDIDby9OiYOQ

No config needed

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

I didn't mean to say I use my 6D to shoot in automatic JPG, I obviously don't, it would be a major overkill. I use my 6D when I need to do something particular, I obviously would shoot in RAW at that point. However, there is a whole segment of people that do use entry level DSLRs in full automatic (including mirrorless systems), without post-processing. Assuming that 6D should spit out at least as good of an image in JPG as cameras with APC-s sensors, is there a point to buy an entry level DSLR for general use in 2018?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] favvomannen:
Nice. But shooting with a dslr in automode really sucks. Ofc its not going to be better. Automode is crippeling your 6d.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] BorManMD:
Slow Motion

Thanks for porting Google camera app.

It works on my Note 8 (Snapdragon) except the "Slow Motion" mode. It crushed the app.

Is it something that can be fixed by changing something in the settings or it will fixed in next updates?

I ran this on my snapdragon note 8 and it was very poor quality; I went into the settings and followed the instructions in the OP and that left me with only the front camera working. If I even thought of switching to the rear camera the app would freeze / just show a black screen and I would then have to close and reopen the app. Any idea why this was happening?

Hi all,

I am a total newbie in this game. This is my first attemp to flash my China brand tablet because of its choppy rom. However I hope someone would point and clarify if my direction is correct (whatever in my mind now:eek:) for what I am going to do.

Goal: To flash custom ROM on 麦柴 M10 model (MT6753)

Steps:

1) Unlock bootloader (DONE)

2) Flash custom recovery (TWRP)

3) Flash custom ROM (prefer LineageOS or whatever stable ROM which made ready available for MT6753 device)

Sub-step: Unlock bootloader

a) install USB driver for my device

b) install adb and fastboot drivers

Sub-step: Flash custom recovery (TWRP)

a) Find TWRP recovery made available for MT6753/MT675X/MT67XX device

b) Port the recovery

Sub-step: Flash custom ROM

a) Find a custom ROM that has already made available to MT6753/MT675X/MT67XX device

b) Port the ROM

At the moment, I have unlocked the bootloader but it is non-rooted (I had several tried before but fail, it was when the bootloader still in locked state). Am I fit to proceed Step 2: Flash recovery given the position I am currently in?:confused:

PS. Moderator, if I posted at the wrong section please help to move to the appropriate one, thanks.

Neither the newest Samsung notes nor S Note can be installed on this tablet.
