I cant pass this issue, any help?

It was working on ver.9 but i wanted to update to ver.11A and this issues happens. Please help.

- Reboot to bootloader

- Flash TWRP

- Reboot to TWRP

- Install oreo3.img

- Mount System

- Flash Magisk

- Mount System

- Flash GCAM v9 or v11A but the issue is still there, and always be there.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Sounds like magisk is flaking out, try reinstalling magisk... Or go to the magisk mod download section, download and install BusyBox for Android apk
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] elrosid:
1. Re-install Oreo Beta 3

2. Reboot bootloader

3. Flash TWRP

4. Flash Oreo Beta 3 stock img

5. Flash Magisk

6. Repeat step 2-4

7. Flash GCAM v9

8. Repeat step 2-5

9. Reboot system

I think there is some problem for v11A. I cant flash it. I've tried download and install BusyBox module, uninstall magisk but still it doesn't make it.

Just revert back to v9 with fresh Oreo Beta 3.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mobileman88:
How did you install your B3? Did you unlock bootloader and critical or did you use the OTA?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Nah, it's your magisk install. I, and my testers can flash it fine. Others can flash it fine. Good luck...

But your steps are a little out of order

1. Install Oreo b3

2. Reboot the os once and set up

3. Reboot to bootloader.

4. Install twrp

5. Boot recovery

6. Flash stock Oreo boot img

7. Mount system

8. Flash magisk 15.3 beta, or kantjer repo magisk.

9. Reboot to os

10. Flash gcam v11a in magisk manager.

Help me help you, get a logcat when installing the module.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] elrosid:
Whoa! I think the way i did was the hard way. How if i uninstall gcam v9 module in magisk manager, and then re-flash gcam v11a in magisk manager afterwards. It will work?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Do it cleanly. Uninstall v9, reboot, install v11, reboot.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Make sure you reboot after uninstalling, then in stall, then reboot again
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:
i cant flash any of the zips, im currenty on beta3 running AOSiP keeps failing
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
whats the fail condition? I also dont know about any aosip support, your the first. Are you on the discord group?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
OP, 2nd, and 3rd Posts updated with V12....is it any better, no idea...... i dont think video stabilzation works, and i dont know what arnova forced cam/hdr+ config to.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
[MENTION=4860033]Arnova8G2[/MENTION], please answer this. Also, seems stabilization was removed in this version? The latest pixel mod of yours.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] sonic0504:
I just updated to v11a 8 hours ago and now v12 is out, the update rate on this is amazing.

Has anybody tested v12, if so is the camera better than v11 or is it the same?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:
This is what I'm getting
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
You have to install this module in magisk, not in TWRP.

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:56 PM ----------

Get magisk installed. Go to modules, click on the plus side the bottom and select the zip. Let it install then reboot.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:
Thank you sir you're the best!!!
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Why are you doing it in twrp?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:
LMAO idk I saw it was a zip so I assumed you had to flash it in twrp, I always jump the gun without reading lol I'm to damn impatient I guess
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
We could if twrp persisted in boot.img flash. Once you flash boot.img it kills magisk.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Bubudeepak:
Tried but it failed
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Poor guy, and no log..... Boy, sure wish there was a way......somewhere, that a debug log could be created, that had a cause of the problem in magisk......if.....only.....there.....was......a.....way............
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
To be fair, I do it ? at work
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] supervandy:
Phenomenal work being done here. Night and day compared to Essential's camera app. Thanks dude.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] gamblerpl:
Hi,

I try install by Modules clicking [+], but nothink happen ;/

Did I need to unpack zip file first ?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Did you select the file when the file manager came up? Did you go to the correct folder where the zip resides?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] thehappydinoa:
Hi, this is not an error but an ideas. Do you think it would be possible to have lense blur and portrait mode enabled at the same time?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
No, it does it all. Try using the stock file manager to browse. Did it try to open the zip and browse the contents instead of flashing. Solid explorer sometimes does that
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Probably not, it's one or the other.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] thehappydinoa:
Oh ok that kinda sucks bc both are amazing and I want to be able to switch between them with out restarting the app.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] contagous:
Question about v12.

Flashed it and google lens seems to work in the photos app, but how do i make it work in the live camera with the assistant? I don't seem to have the button in the assistant on screen only in photos.

Is that how its supposed to function?

Everything is working great otherwise.

Best adaption so far :)
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Not sure TBH, I thought it works only in photos
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] contagous:
Ahh ok, then i won't worry about it for now as everything else works, but yeah the pixel 2 has it working in assistant also, like you press a button and can take a pic.

thanks for what you are doing, your dev support for this phone is great.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] herwarth:
nope available when you take a photo and tap on in in the camera app....
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Noice
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] 12paq:
I tried to fake out Google AR on a glass coffee table, but it tracked the table perfectly.

This is just fun. :)

Isn't it though. I have bb8 chase my lazy cats. It pleases me
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] jamesst20:
Hi,

I have Android O Beta 3 freshly installed with latest Magisk.

I flashed the Beta 12 zip (latest) of your mod using Magisk and the Google Camera is very nice, even motion picture works.

However, I am sad to notice that there is no "Portrait" option where you picture someone and the background gets blurried

Edit: Nevermind, it had to be enabled, everything is flawless thank you :)
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] cybrid3:
Where did you find the setting to activate portrait mode? I can't seem to find it
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] freshlysqueezed:
Settings, advanced.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] cybrid3:
Are you able to post a screenshot as all my settings seem to be blanked out. I have a developer options but can't really read anything there.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] freshlysqueezed:
See pics
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] cybrid3:
Thankyou. For some reason I don't have those options. Im on liquid remix 9.1 with op5. Other than portrait mode cam is great
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
so in all seriousness, you have a OP5? even though this is a PH-1 thread? I mean, its fine and all, but the op does in fact state "the media_profiles_V1.0.xml is VERY VERY VERY specific to our device" because of the dual camera setup on the back.

does everything work? what version are you using? the versions are all "whoevers gcam port is current" so your experience may vary. Is liquid remix oreo? You might be better served going to your thread, there's much more support for your device. But im glad its working right for you.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
PSA for portrait mode, front and rear: Not sure if on all versions....

It has been discovered that if you open portrait mode, there is a slight zoom. Then you open the gallery thing, bottom right of gcam, then arrow back to portrait, the zoom goes away. It's minor, but I thought I would share.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
And done, link updated in op in just a second
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Yay
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
Do we need to uninstall v3 and reboot before installing v4?

Nevermind.. i uninstalled it then install. Btw.. i saw EIS enabled. Does it really work? Or does essential have to implement it themselves?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
think so, wish it was OIS....
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
Ill do a test tomorrow on video using gcam. I know the stock as no stabilization at all!

---------- Post added at 11:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

Front hdr+ is not working right? Weird thing I noticed is that normal front picture looks bad, exactly same as essential, but the portrait mode is amazing! What gives lol
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] emowing:
congrats, enjoy!
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Hope you get some use from it
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Front hdr works fine.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
Not working for me for some reason. Pic quality is nowhere near rear camera. Kinda blurry actually.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Try disabling pd and pd blur in debug settingd
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
Just did, didn't work... What other settings do you have checked/unchecked in debug settings? Tap to focus doesn't work as well... Background over exposed
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] emowing:
the front camera doesn't do HDR+ unless you use portrait mode. Normal mode will never look as good as the portrait mode because of it. Just shoot with portrait mode, you can select the non "bokeh" version after it's taken.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
It looks selectable in the menu?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Doesn't appear active though (no spinning)
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
I never take selfies, just saw the hdr function was there
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
The toggle is there but no spinning, so yea portrait mode it is lol
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Wickidmasshole:
Yo- thank you for this. As useless as they are those AR stickers are mad cool lol
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Sirus is not amused....lol
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
[MENTION=3135253]emowing[/MENTION] you know anything about those calibration_cad files?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] emowing:
no, I haven't looked at AR at all since I'll never use it :)
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Yep I experience the same. Just noticed it now that you said something.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] herwarth:
you look happy though... :silly:
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
I was doing my impression
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] hicham_mahi:
it work for any android or nougat and areo:confused:
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mobileman88:
Oreo only as stated in the OP
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] gk1984:
XDA just posted this on the blog. There's a Google cam port that can use the 2nd front camera on an LG. Could this help us add support?

https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-lg-v30-wide-angle-lens/
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
2. Things:

1. We need to modify build.prop to allow the com.android.google.GoogleCameraWide to see the aux. sensor

2. His widecam (LG Phones) call the secondary camera cameraid=2, care to guess what ours is called....lol cameraid=1

Why does that matter? Because his wide cam forcibly sets every camera to 2, which brute force activates their wide angle camera. After fiddling with the mod, i can get front camera (our cameraid=2) to open, then it FC's.

Its a start, ask [MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] if he wants to cut a build
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
Kind of. The change to iga.smali makes only camera id 1 and 2 available. Since the V30 wide angle is also a LENS_FACING_BACK the Google app must not have too much of an issue placing the cameras in the right spot after that. The default GCam starts at ID 0 and counts up by 1...I think until it finds both facing_front and back but I'd need to dig closer. As another hint, there was a G6 owner on Lineage that had the ID's in the wrong order. I wrote them an app that started at 0 (their front) and increased by 2 to find the rear wide angle, skipping over the regular rear camera.

As of now, the app will crash if you try to force 2 ID's that have the same facing direction. Ie I can't set an app that is the 2 back lenses.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
OP, 2nd, & 3rd Post updated

Added Manual focus and ISO, removed HEVC support
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
hmm, so in our case, BW sensor is 1 and FF is 2. When i loaded the app, after adding the build ID to build.prop so it could see the bw sensor, it would load front facing for 2 seconds, then FC. I took a log, but i didnt have much faith in actually working in the future. Your new build fix anything in iga.smali that may help?

Im not gonna bug you to try and fix a phone you dont own, and im not a java or smali savant, since HTC broke me.

Thank you for the response.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Working good so far. I always have to enable camera.enable_gcam to get everything working properly. Any way to keep this checked in developer settings?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
The newest version doesn't change much outside of the Model and Configs used, on a device to device basis.

If your phone/rom was set up "right", my app should work as I am using ID's 1 and 2 as well. However, I wonder what the FACING ID of your BW sensor is. In Camera2 Test it would be "android.lens.facing". I'm wondering if the GCam can't find the right _BACK camera, hence why it opens up to the front camera, when it should open to a _BACK camera at first. :confused:

Dearest Bro:

Do you have a PH-1 Device. If so, you will surely find out that scrubber is not a very good gcam port for this phone. If you do not have a PH-1 device, you may want to consider looking in your forum for a mod similar to this, or take mine, and update to suit your needs.

Warmest Regards

Dearest bros

Anyone know why I can never get portrait mode to actually work? The mode works, and takes pictures, but it doesn't blur the background at all in any picture I've ever taken
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Even with people in the picture?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
point it at a face, like yours, take a pic, then there will be 2 pics....dont get easier than that brotato chip
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] viper98:
That's my bad Broseph Gordon Levitt

I assumed it worked taking pictures of anything like most portrait modes. Didn't realize Google just made it for people.

Thanks for straightening me out Tone Broc
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Brohammy: the standard portrait mode can't be ported, as it uses proprietary in phone technology, that we don't have. The facial recognition is algorithm based in app. We get sloppy seconds bro o my toe
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] jamesst20:
Hi,

Can we hide without reflashing the manual focus panel thing on latest version?

Thanks
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Hide what?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] jamesst20:
The 2 focus slider on the right and left
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Install v13
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
You have v13a, install just v13
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Does that even work well?those sliders. They're cumbersome
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
I didn't install v13a... Just v13. But I do read your changelog. [emoji16]
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
OP, 2nd and 3rd Posts Updated, Thank [MENTION=235507]ArtZ[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] for their continued efforts to make a better GCAM product for us.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
lol, was wondering if you had tried it in your travels. It looks like manual focus sorta works with pixel 2017 zsl hrd+ config, but no ISO adjustment.

Thoughts?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
I did try the arnova pixelmod v3, it has a blueish hue to picture, its not terrible, the color is better in cstark and artz mods.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Which do you prefer? The regular v13 I think takes great pictures already. What are the differences between the others versus v13?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
No idea, I'm on 13, just giving optioms
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
Hi.. I'm getting problems flashing your latest zips.. I downloaded v13 & v13c.. And tried flashing..

But all in vein..

None of them installed and showed error msg in twrp..

I'm attaching Screenshot.

Kindly reply with some solution.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Guys, the post SUBJECT says this is a magisk mod. Please flash in magisk not in TWRP.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
Okk.. I'll try flashing in Magisk..

But in the past I installed v11 & v12 using TWRP only.. And that worked perfectly.. I always did this in TWRP only..

Now I'll try installing using Magisk..

Thanks for the reply..
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
Now I tried as u suggested..

But it also failed..

See screenshot below and suggest something else..

Thanks for your help..
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
Just for the sake of being through, you are rooted? Flashed magisk in TWRP?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
Yes I'm rooted..

Yes, I flashed Magisk using TWRP..

This I've always have done with all my devices..
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
I think your magisk install might be borked. Try reinstalling magisk, either 15.3 beta, or the latest kantjer repo version, and try again.

also: you have a PH-1?

What rom are you on?

what version magisk currently?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
so, what version do people like better

v13

v13A

v13B

v13C

Thoughts? im in between v13 and v13C
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
Okk.. I'll try again after reinstalling Magisk and then I'll flash the Gcam zip again..

I'm currently on PIXEL EXPERIENCE rom - 8.1.0

With latest Magisk v53.

And by the way, what is PH-1..??

I think I need to know about it..
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] Genghis1227:
I really haven't tried any other since v13 is giving me the best results so far.

---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

PH-1 is the Essential PH-1 phone. Do you have this brand of phone? I believe in the original post mentions that this mod very device specific.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
PH-1 is the phone,essential phone. What is pixel rom? Good luck....keep in mind your flashing a media profiles.xml not really suited to you rphone
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] M!tch:
he doesn't use an essential ph-1 since there is no dual sim essential phone.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] hizzy06:
PH-1 is Essential Phone. Are you using essential phone in the first place? Also this mod is only compatible with Oreo betas
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
In doing this on my Moto G5S Plus..

Currently running PIXEL EXPERIENCE rom with Android Oreo 8.1.0

I flashed and used v11 & v12 successfully.. It worked perfectly on my phone..

But the problem came with v13 and onwards..

If u can give some solution.. It'll be appreciated..

Thanks for the good work..
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Your problem is magisk I think, I didn't change anything other than gcams, it's the same template. Did you reinstall magisk? Can you still flash v11 or 12?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
I'll try after reaching home..

I'm in office right now..
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] gk1984:
This mod is meant for the Essential PH-1 phone. It might cause problems with other phones but you can try it if you want. And you should be on the latest version of Magisk.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ravi5695:
Yes, U r right that this mod is meant for some specific device.

But I want to inform you that this MOD did work perfectly with my Moto G5S Plus (Sanders)... V11 & v12..

But I faced problem only with v13.

Right now I'm trying to clean flash my device with New ROM and Re-installing Magisk.

I'll inform you after finishing the installation of this MOD on to my device.

Version 7 works on ZTE axon 7 with the Perfect New World Oreo 8.1 fwiw
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
for real, even with the janky camera2 api? I own one, never bothered to try it. I hate that phone with the passion of a thousand dying suns.....

I will attach this pic so you may download and see for yourself. I was quite impressed with the difference.

Explain HDR+ I am new to this and don't use the camera that much, plus I am back on stock until the next release
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] vdub2pt0:
I can confirm that v13 is working on the latest AOSIP 8.1 build (1/29/18).

I haven't done much testing though, only a few pictures from front and rear cameras.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Nice, anything fox or anybody else builds from discord group should work
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
I got it for 50 dollars cause a dummy blew the bootstack up. Got it working, then just drove me crazy (I hate that implementation of bootstack and firmware... Sooooo Janky) might fiddle fart with it some this weekend.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] 2CanSan:
That bootstack I can agree with. I missed getting one like that as well
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] sonic0504:
Will you update V13C to this?
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
I have a v13E with the taimen version he posted this morning
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] sonic0504:
Thanks, I'll post a comparison between V13C and V13E.

When will it be released?
