This version can't find the way to toggle camera normal/wide on LG g6 thinq
[Google Camera Mods] matteool:
I have a lg G6

once this action is done:

5.) turn on Add AUX to Camera Switch to be able to switch to wide angle

where can I find the option to switch the cameras?

thanks
[Google Camera Mods] laasworld:
Exit the menus back to the main viewfinder screen and just tap the switch button on the left twice, to switch to the front camera and back to the back one. The trick is simply that when it returns to the back camera, it will rotate between the normal and wide cameras.
[Google Camera Mods] bramms:
For now the best option 6.1 GCam for G6 is newest GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk - (URL)

Works slo-mo (set 120FPS in settings) HDR+, HDR Enhanced and Night Sight and other features. Unfortunately, front camera wont work correctly.

You can use stable as rock 5.1 version (without Night Sight mode) by cstark (URL) or stock for front camera photos.

LG G6: working GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk

On my LG G6 the latest Arnova update:

GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk

works well including the Night Sight, using mostly the recommended settings (buffer fix not needed) and cleaning the cache, with the following exceptions:

- Camera Sounds OFF: sets the device sound to 0 (no ring sound etc.!) Shutting the camera down doesn't turn it back on.

- Front camera pix are neon green even after using the mentioned fixes, incl. front cam Saturation = 1.0 and HDR+ off or not-Enhanced.

As I never take selfies besides testing gcam, it doesn't bother me...

GCam_6.1.021_Arnova_advanced_1.4.031419.0947.apk would install, but not open.

NoHex_MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_V1.3.030119.0645.apk ran, but closed often with settings by enderbsg + criticalsass.

As a side note, it seems to me that the G6 camera software has improved since the original, perhaps with the the Feb. 2019 update (with AI?) The over-sharpening is gone, at least in well lit photos, so the edges are well defined without artifacts, better textures etc. Have you noticed that, or are my eyes failing ;)

Can someone please share their settings for GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk? I've played around with everything, but in every scenario Cstark's 4.2t3 performs much better especially in low light. The gap in quality is quite significant.

I'm using a LG G6 H870 running stock Oreo.
[Google Camera Mods] viktor92:
Night Sight seems to work, but it's unstable and the selfies are a disaster...
[Google Camera Mods] CAwanderer:
I haven't tried the Cstark's 4.2t3, so I can't compare. I assume that you've found the Night Sight under More... - it works great for me, much better than the Bright Mode on the LG cam.

Unfortunately the Arnova_advanced_1.4.031419.0947 doesn't seem to save the settings after saying "settings saved": I looked in GCam\Configs where the previous Gcams stored it :(

But, after clearing the cache, it worked for me as it came, seemingly ignoring my settings saved from previous versions. So I just re-set the base to Pixel2018ZslHdr+ with Pixel3xl on back, Nexus6p on front; HDR+ to 7 (faster, good enough for me), and then just minor things - e.g. resolutions to 16:9 both etc...
[Google Camera Mods] User/w/nname:
It happened again. All pictures I took in the last week disappeared. This time I backed up most of them to Google Photos but because Google Photos only backs up in WiFi all the pictures from today are gone.

If this is going to happen more often, it's a serious problem. Please help!

Maybe I should install a newer version of the app. If so which version is the most stable for the LG V20 H990DS.

pictures taken in some 10-20lx from 60W bulb about 15 ft away [compare the details in Boston / Auronzo / Dolomiti magnets]:

the Night Sight

to me looks much better [more details, better color...] than

the native camera

which looks better than

the native Bright View with its reduced resolution.

Outside in daylight I don't see much difference between gcam and the g6 native camera (seemingly improved with less aggressive sharpening = less artifacts)...

Arnova GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk

Using the Savitar V5 lib seems to help with the oversaturated look on my LG V35, giving photos an overall more natural look. The Pixel XL or Nexus 6P base model seems to provide the most consistent colors as well, the Nexus 6P file sizes generally run a bit higher but overall the Pixel XL images may have less artifacts. Hopefully others may find this setting helpful. Also, I have dynamic black level enabled.

Can somebody input, I can't go through entire thread...the gcam is obviously better than native app, but what about video (1080p)? Are they the same, quality wise? And why doesn't the gcam offer 4K (LG G6)? Thanks

On my v30+ with android oreo, this one is a hit or miss... Sometimes takes a picture and then hangs, on other occasions it just opens and hangs the system which then has to reboot by itself. Once it just hung up n I had to wait for the entire battery to drain down n phone to shut down so that I could restart it. Other than the phone hanging issues, pics come out great... Whenever they do. Please keep trying to create a more stable version.. Thanks... Looking up to u

Night sight in lg v30.

Hi I installed app on my lg v30 and I cannot find the night sight option. Do I need to enable it somehow? Does anyone have the same issue?

I have a lg v20 on stock oreo. I tried using your config "Harys_Viewty_LG_G5_G6_G7Fit_V20_V34_Q8_Q9.xml" on the gcam 1.4

The gcam launches fine without any config so do you have any specific v20 config that works without fcing?

For LG V30 users

What is your experience with Arnova's GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk version on V30? Thanks!

I had lots of freezes when trying it out, until I found out the V30.xml that was in the Configs section:

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog380/

This version is working quite well with the "V30.xml" installed, but NOT the "LG_V30_HQ_Arnova_A1.4.xml". The latter one freezes right away.

Of course, front selfie cam is still unusable with heavy orange shadowing. Back camera is quick and Night Sight works (just not quick)

Still depends on OEM camera for selfies and videos.

For V30, which one works for the WIDE CAM on nightsight ?

For V30, which one works for the WIDE CAM on nightsight ?

I've tried the latest arnova with the cycleable camera IDs in order to use the wide cam, but it only works for the default camera mode, not portrait, not video, not nightsight (once i change modes, the camera switches back to the normal angle back-cam).

Does any version work for wide cam night sight?

thanks!
[Google Camera Mods] zondajag:
Using the Pixel Experience Android Pie ROM with my LG Google Nexus 5X. I have tried to use a the NoHex and BGC versions of gcam 6.1 (ones that can have a NightSight viewfinder not upside down). The main issue I have is the front facing camera ends up adding a yellow or orange circular edge around all the front camera photos. Anyone know of a version that has a good front facing camera with the Nexus 5X?
[Google Camera Mods] jajeczny:

Does HDR+ not freeze for you?
[Google Camera Mods] MasterThiefGarrett:
No, it has the same cameras as the G7, and because of the Snapdragon 845, I can also shoot 4K 60fps with it, something the V30 can't do.

Now to find a good GCAM for this lovely phone.
[Google Camera Mods] trluser:
Sometimes it does. Most of the freezings seems to be related with screen display lockup while the V30 is processing the last image. So HDR+ can be the cause. I tend to use HDR since I don't always need HDR+. If you can also avoid switching to check out the last shot you took, it is more stable in my experience. I wish someone can help explain the use of Hexagon DSP on the V30. I have tried both and cannot decide if it is better ON vs OFF. The cstark 5.1 version with NoHex does work better on V30 but for Arnova v6.1 version, it is not so definitive.

I keep both versions and use v6.1 when I must have NightSight.
[Google Camera Mods] toke07:
With night sight, i think the point is process taking long time. And you cannot take few shots continuously, it should be one by one, after phone finish process one image. If you shots too many in night sight, it will be hot and auto exit Google cam without saving recent pics.

I recently bought Pixel 2 XL. Pics quality from 2 XL is a little bit better than V20 using Google cam, more stable, 3 or 4 times faster in night sight mode
[Google Camera Mods] peek_12_21:
Ok I've been using an older version of cstark gcam with hdr+ and I've been trying to keep up with this but I'm trying to find out which version is running best on v20 running Oreo.

[Google Camera Mods] mun53:
Can I ask how to turn off HDR+ and turn on HDR? I presume "HDR+ Off" means no HDR+ or HDR.

Thanks
[Google Camera Mods] KUSOsan:
There are 3 different options if you enable the HDR control in options. There is regular HDR and then there is HDR+. On my V20, the HDR+ looks better in extreme contrast scenes than regular HDR but it takes a lot longer to process. Sometimes it can take over double the amount of time and it can lock or crash your phone if you start taking to many before it has finished processing.
[Google Camera Mods] mun53:
On my V30, I see "HDR+ off", "HDR+ on" and "HDR+ enhanced" though. I don't see an option for "HDR".
[Google Camera Mods] RedXon:
This doesn't really work on my LG G6 (with Havoc OS). Installation works but as soon as I try to switch lenses it crashes. I also can't even go to the setting as the app crashes as soon as I go into the settings. Anyone has a solution?
[Google Camera Mods] lcparente:
Here on my LG G6 Stock (because its bootloader is locked), the best version by far is cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3.

I tried the version GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950 as some people had mentioned here and it is too damn laggy on my device.
[Google Camera Mods] RedXon:
That is the one I just tried, the one that was linked here in the starting post right?
[Google Camera Mods] lcparente:
Yap! :good:
[Google Camera Mods] C D:
Out of the ones I've tested, the least buggy for my V20 (H918) on an Oreo stock-based ROM so far is NoHex_MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2a.

I followed Alex_HP's suggested settings:

BSG MOD settings

- Input Model:

-- Back camera: Nexus 6P

-- Front camera: Nexus 6P

-- Config: BSG Config PixelPlusNS Hdr+

-- Add AUX to Camera Switch: On (keep switching between back and front lenses to alternate between the normal and wide angle front cameras)

- FIX:

-- Image Format: YUV_420_888 (default)

Advanced:

- HDR+ control: On

Overall, since you can install and keep both the older GCam 5 and newer GCam 6 at the same time, I would use the newer GCam for Night Sight and the older version and/or LG stock camera for everything else.

Just had the same issue (now solved) on a recent version of Revenge OS Rom on my (ls998->h930) v30. The prior version of this rom worked, for the same gcam port? (it's the NOHEX 6.x version).

But the rom author indicated the package of the gcam port may not be 'whitelisted' in this version. Sure enough, using prop editor I added the package (org.codeaurora.snapcam) to the proper key, was then able to access the wide angle lens.

I"m NOT saying that's the problem you are having. I don't know that. I only know that talking to the rom author may help to solve the issue, whatever the issue is.

G6 Wideangle GCam 6

Hey there,

is there currently a well working Gcam 6 version that is using both rear lenses for the LG G6 H870?

I have tried a lot of versions from Arnova but they all dont use the wideangle lense. Also the Front Camera has a horrible green tint and is completely out of focus.

Do you have any suggestions?

I recently installed GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.5.190418.1850.apk and the associated v30.xml on my V30 (VS996). Be sure to load the settings from the v30.xml. I haven't played with it too much, but the night-sight and standard camera are working great. Video worked fine as well...
[Google Camera Mods] drewcu:
Where did you get the v30.xml file from? Thanks.
[Google Camera Mods] AsItLies:
If you simply search for the apk mentioned, click on the first link that comes up (celsoazevdo), it will say "config files are available for some phones" with a link next to it... not too hard to find.

I tried the GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.5.190418.1850.apk and the 2 config files available for it (v30.xml and ver 1.4 advanced I think it is), still some issues.

On my 2 devices (v30 w AOSP Revenge OS, and v30 with US998h) the front cam has green tint on both with the v30.xml. The 1.4 advanced does NOT have green tint on front, but seems to cause the device to reboot now and again. Also, during some testing (forget which), couldn't use the 'night sight' in wide angle... turn on night sight, switched to wide angle, it turned off night sight. Then tried to switch to wide, turn on night sight, it switches it back to normal lens.

I haven't found any that seem to be fully functional...

Isn't that the one in the original post of this thread? If so, I've tried it yeah. I've also tried every version since 3.2.

I get these vertical lines in low-light conditions. It works very well otherwise... even better than the stock LG camera app.
[Google Camera Mods] Dlions:
have you tried any of these alternative versions here https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-cstark27/? ive tried some and thier working but havent tested low light performance
[Google Camera Mods] djskribbles:
I tried a good amount yeah... it's overwhelming with how many there are, so I didn't try A LOT. I just figured it's the same with all of them.

There's another site that listed a port by 'ArtZ' I believe, that based his port on cstark's work, and supposedly works great on the G5, but all of the links are dead and I can't see them posted anywhere else.

Would be nice to get a problem-free Gcam port (or a third-party camera app with decent quality). Third-party camera apps I've tried aren't very good, even when compared to the stock camera app, let alone Gcam.

edit: I found something that works without any vertical lines. I'm using BSG's MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e build with these settings, but also enabled the 'Buffer Fix' under the 'Fix' section. fu24 also has a tweaked version based on this build that also works well.

Night mode also works in this build, like it takes the picture.. but the viewfinder basically doesn't work.

Use 1.5 version with your phone's config files. (It has night sight)

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog380/

While he released 2.0, it doesn't work with config files. Stick with 1.5 for best compatibility.

Unfortunately it didn't work out on my V20. Load the confkg but then the camera crashes. Cleared data tried without config but still very buggy for the V20. But thx for your reply. Thank God cstsrk gcam 5 is absolutely stable for the V20. :) I mean let's be honest I won't use the night sight often. So I can live with an unstable version who totally slows down my system haha :P.
[Google Camera Mods] C D:
Yeah, as I mentioned earlier (see djskribbles' middle link above), on the V20, it's easiest to stick with the good old cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3_fu24-05h and/or LG stock camera for everything that is not Night Sight.

I still haven't found any later version that is more stable than cstark27's NoHex_MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2a. For example, the more recent MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e-fu24_02c has a few more settings and the same nice long-press switch between normal and wide lenses like the 5.1 version, but at least on my V20 (H918), half the time, the viewfinder shows a black screen, and you have to click away to some other mode/option or switch lenses and then go back to get the correct view again.

But the neat thing for comparison purposes is that all three versions mentioned above can coexist since they each have a different package name and even a different icon color, too.
[Google Camera Mods] djskribbles:
I have a G5 but the config file for our phones are the same and it also causes the app to close/crash on my G5. I went ahead and tried the config file specifically for the G6 (G6_30_03_2019.xml) and it works well on my G5 (RS988 running LOS16), not sure about the v20.

I made some tweaks to make it work better on the G5. Also made a config file from scratch (default settings with necessary changes to work properly on the G5). I've attached both configs for anyone who wants to try. The one labelled g5 is the g6 config file with some tweaks. The one labelled g5 custom is the one I made from scratch.

I am using Arnova's latest v1.5 advanced build.

edit: Removed the 'custom' config, as the tweaked g6 config seems to work better.
