Some of the restrictions depend on the processor your phone is using.

2018 processor can do more than 2016 processor.

[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] seriously awesome work on this, thank you! I have a pixel 2 xl and I am selling it now thanks to what you have done. I'm not sure if this has been brought up but would it be possible to make a version that switched between the wide angle and regular camera on the back rather than front and back? I rarely use the selfie camera.

Tried normal and wide camera app on my LG G6 and they are great for everything else but capturing peoples. Every time i try to took a photo of people - colors look very saturated so people end up having smudges on their faces. It is mosty happening outside on sun light.
[Google Camera Mods] NahuelMS:
Xiaomi MI A1 have a Sp625 vs the Sp820 of the LG v 20. Both processors launched on 2016, same generation and the 820 is superior. Don't think that the problem is a processor thing!

---------- Post added at 18:42 ---------- Previous post was at 18:39 ----------

I think all the mods i tried with the V20 had only 1080p enabled, don't know why :(

[Google Camera Mods] addaboy:
[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] thank you so much for this mod, I love the portrait mode and the lens blur, I use both all the time on my LG V20. There's one problem with the lens blur though. In lower light situations, indoors, if I use the lens blur mode, the screen is very dark and the pictures come out the same way. If I use the regular mode, the pictures come out normally. I've attached two pictures to demonstrate, I took them a couple minutes ago in my cubicle. Is there any way to fix that or does it come out that way even on Pixel phones?

Thanks!
[Google Camera Mods] lcparente:
That is a good question, man! Some people here say that they do not have this problem and others do say that they suffer from the same bug.

On my G6 such thing happens, too. Unfortunately I have no idea whether is possible to solve this problem or nope =\
[Google Camera Mods] rjavc:
This app would be perfect if you could update it with portrait photos inside the same folder

What could be the cause behind the reboots on Oreo? Just want to know the explanation. Thanks a lot
[Google Camera Mods] addaboy:
I don't think it can be done, or at least I seem to recall cstark27 saying he didn't know how. There is a workaround app I found called Gcam Tool that does it automatically, check it out.

[MENTION=5081847]Tolyan009[/MENTION] added this functionality to the Mod for the OP3/T.

Haven't posted in ages but had to say thanks for this app, side note what are optimal settings for a V30?
[Google Camera Mods] jflize:
Ok, updated to Oreo. Followed recomendation and still have problems.

I have unchecked camera.raisr from the developper settings, erase app data, rebooted then it seemed to work.

Then I have tried to enable another option from the developper setting to enable motion picture (option has been suggested by stark so I assumed it was safe). Phone started to crash again.

From that point, I unchecked that last option, redid all the mentioned steps but phone always crashes after taking a pic with one of the google cam app.

I then decided to uninstall and made sure data and cache was also gone.

Now trying to re-install (clicking on the link in first port) I get an error saying something like "Error analysing package" (not exactly this, I translate from french...). Tried to enable Chrome to install third party apps, tried via email and file explorer. All give me this.

Are the links in first post still working ? Why my phone don't want to install ??

Please help !

Edit : Was able to install after downloading the APK on my phone first, then install from my download folder. Removed camera.raisr check, rebooted phone, took a photo with both apps, no crash ! Seems to be fixed :) Will report if anymore problems.

Are you taking 2 pics in portrait mode?
[Google Camera Mods] Sonic Offline:
Not that I'm aware of. I'm just trying to take a picture with the blur mode on with the back camera and it just crashes.
[Google Camera Mods] JarkMackson:
[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] Is there any way to make a version of this app that replaces the front cam with the wide angle so you can switch between regular and wide instead of front and back? I'd be willing to pay for the effort
[Google Camera Mods] harysviewty:
Yes, cause wide angle is important for framing
[Google Camera Mods] Phoked:
I was still getting random rebooting after taking pictures even after clearing data and disabling camera.raisr. However, after multiple testing I discovered the reboots would only occur after using Smart Cleaning (the storage and RAM cleaning option within settings). It seems that after using that it resets the developer option, despite saying it is off. To fix this I would go back into developer settings, toggle camera.raisr on and back off, then reboot normally.

The phone I tested was the ATT variant on the oreo update.
[Google Camera Mods] LyinCakeGamingYT:
Trying to install the apks and get error "Cant parse package." On Android OREO and unknown app installs are enabled.

Edit: Downloading the apps on my PC and manually moving them to my phone, and then installing them solved the issue. For some reason when i clicked the download links from this page on my phone it would try to install it from google drive, rather than downloading the install apk.
[Google Camera Mods] addaboy:
I haven't posted much here so my apologies if this is considered a bump and not allowed but I was wondering if anyone had seen this and knows a way to fix it?

I get an error message on Nokia 6 after updating to Oreo 8.1 when switching to video recording : "Can't connect to camera"

[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] Is it possible to fix this issue?
[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
All my attempts so far have not been successful. If you try to make the GCam use (2) different "REAR" facing lenses, it crashes.

On my V30 the Lens Blur mode isn't much darker than normal mode. When it switches to Lens Blur it for some reason increases the frame rate to 60fps, maybe this is why some devices have a darker screen.

I don't know. As mentioned in OP, I'm not a developer and don't have much time or resources to actually fix a lot of stuff. My hope is someone else more capable can pick up development after a while.
[Google Camera Mods] geozec:
[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION]: A huge, huge thank you for this mod!

I own the G6 since last August and have been hugely disapointed with the camera, especially the wide angle mushy results.

And that's exactly why I got it.

I was just waiting for the P20 pro to come out and get it or the S9+ but now I am as happy as I can be with the results. What a difference!

If you have some easy way of contributing a little something, please let me know, I'd gladly do that.
[Google Camera Mods] Benderisas:
Maybe you could share software you use to develop this mod?
[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
Notepad++ with Smali language plugin for editing. I also use the Compare plugin for Notepad++.

APK Easy Tool (Or APK Tool if you want to use command lines) for decompiling/compiling/signing/installing.

GrepWin for searching through the 8,000+ smali files or mass find/replace.

WinMerge to compare versions and see what changes were made (because a lot of files are hard to see what they actually do/effect).

By now my version and most others have a lot of changes versus the stock Google Camera APK. So if you're just starting, I highly recommend referencing an old version by Scrubber that had relatively few changes. https://github.com/cstark27/scrubberdiff/commit/d4abbc2f75b5934d00c0d076e31afb951b1f5871 Or one of my first few versions in the OP under Old Versions.

Also remember that for each Google Camera version, the .smali file names will be different so the same code will be in a different location now.

Hi, I found something that doesn't work and it's really annoying I don't know if you can fix it.

I have a remote that function via Bluetooth to take pictures hands free.

Normally, it works on both normal and wide lens but if you use it in the Portrait or Lens Blur mode somehow it doesn't work anymore.

Can you fix it? It would be great !

Thanks...

Also, can give us the functions of the various options of the "Developer Settings" sections.

Because most of them I have no clue what they do, some I can figure out but some I have no clue...

Thanks..

[Google Camera Mods] Dizzyrul3z:
[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] On Oreo I have strange problem. When I take picture with your camera app and go to gallery or other media, sound stops suddenly and the video works frame by frame. It does not matter if it's video from gallery or YT or music from spootify or built-in player. After reboot everything is ok. Can enyone confirm that?
[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
Not sure on your Bluetooth request.

diet_burst is something for Burst photos/Smart Burst

faceboxes shows boxes around Faces (doesn't mean it's focused on a face though)

af.debug.show shows info on screen about Autofocus

op.nes BSG says it's something to do with focus

camcorder.h265 codec for video, never tried it

micro options relate to Motion Photos (Oreo users have to turn on enable_micro manually in my build...it may be unstable, you have been warned, all other micro options are off by default on Pixel)

enable_pd is for Pixel 2 rear Portrait Mode (don't enable on any device, will not work)

enable_pd_blur same as above

enable_hwhdr not sure

enable_vesper is Beauty Mode option

gouda.front related to Portrait Mode

camera.p3 don't know

camera.raisr Google upsampling on digitally zoomed photos

Try clear data/cache for both apps (standard/wide), uninstall, reboot, install, change setting on both apps, reboot?
[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
Sounds like a similar problem to Essential owners in the past. I think the update to 8.1 fixed that for them....try the camera.raisr toggle.
[Google Camera Mods] Dizzyrul3z:
I turn off camera.raisr but no effect. Still after taking photo with your app, no sound on YT or spootify or build in music app and movies are jumping frame by frame...damn it's very annoying. I take a lot of photos with your awsome app and because of that im gonna back to Nougat...

Bluetooth Wireless Remote Control Camera Shutter Release for Androi and IOS

Like I said it works on normal mode with normal and wide lens but as soon as you enter the (Portrait and Lens Blur) mode it doesn't work anymore.

It probably because the Bluetooth function is missing or is not added in those modes, so it's like if it not activated.

Thanks for the DEV info's..

Can anybody else confirm this ? If with their Bluetooth Wireless Remote Control Camera Shutter Release works in Portrait and Lens Blur mode ?

[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] Today I discovered one more thing. After taking a photo, you can not hear when someone calls me. I can not answer the call either (it goes to pick up but you can not hear anything) and no one can hear me either. It seems to me that your application disrupts audio and video in some way on Oreo in V30. Do you have some ideas how to fix this? Or how can I help you (logs or smt?)
[Google Camera Mods] OldGaf:
Sorry for the noob question here.... but are you saying we can have both installed at the same time (as well as the stock camera app) and pick between the 3 of them as needed?
[Google Camera Mods] Hungry hustler:
Yes. You can install both and keep the stock too.
[Google Camera Mods] OldGaf:
The odd thing then is after installing both all I see is icons for stock and wide.
[Google Camera Mods] Hungry hustler:
Dunno. Try to rename the camera.apk to smth else, in case that the stock and the gcam have the same name and conflict with each other...other than that i'm out of ideas..it worked without a problem for me
[Google Camera Mods] OldGaf:
Ok.... So I had to install an app to make shortcuts to get the other one setup... Very odd. Also the normal Gcam was hanging but force stopping all the camera apps and clearing the cache seems to have fixed it.

I am so happy to have photosphere back!

One question... With these dedicated normal and wide angles apps you can do photosphere on either is seems. Is one better then the other?... I.e wide-angle photosphere vs normal ?

[Google Camera Mods] Dizzyrul3z:
I don't think so. So far we know that this problems happend after using HDR or HDR+. During the HDR post processing (which is inidicated through that little loading animation in the gallery app). I tested couple of versions Gcam and have the same problems.
[Google Camera Mods] pro922004:
I agree. There must be something wrong in the HDR processing algorithm that conflicts with Oreo (just on my Verizon one, not sure about other variants though) and I think it would take time to fix it. Fortunately my V30 has just received the camera update from Verizon and the stock app's image quality has been drastically improved imo. Or it's just a placebo effect idk lol :D
