I've installed 2.2.2beta2.190907.0540 on my V35, is there any way to speed up the processing of night sight?
[Google Camera Mods] elhennig:
This is still strange because the 6.1 version works fine (also as fallback the older version 5 is also working fine with the "Aux button" functionality. In my opinion the ROM should be ok to provide a camera with the wide angle lense. However I do not know what exactly changed between 6.1 and 6.2
[Google Camera Mods] Arcide:
The new app also has this issue where it reverts the resolution of the main camera to 13MP after switching to the wide and back. I don't know if this was an issue in some of the earlier versions, because I haven't tested any of them this extensively since v5.1. Not a big deal anyway.

Also, does anyone know why do I get the the "post creation failed" error when I try to reply to this thread within the xda app? It seems to happen in this thread only, it's very odd.
[Google Camera Mods] elhennig:
OT: For me this is not working in any thread....
[Google Camera Mods] elhennig:
I just tried the 6.2 Version 6.2 Final and the Aux Button works with that version .

Maybe it is caused by the package name com.google.android.GoogleCamera (Beta) and org.codeaurora.snapcam (FInal). Even if I added both package names to

vendor.camera.aux.packagelist=com.dual.GCam,com.Wide.GCam,com.Tele.GCam,org.codeaurora.snapcam,com.android.camera,com.google.android.GoogleCamera

in /system/build.prop

I posted this over in the LineageOS thread in the V30 forum, but figure that it may help a lot more people here, so pardon the double post.

Here are simple, explicit instructions for enabling Permissive mode in order to fix cameras not working if you've recently been installing various custom ROMs:

1. Go to https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-magisk-selinux-manager-t3760042 and download the attached file at the bottom of the first post. Ignore that it says "discontinued" at the top and wants to redirect you to a github repository. I tried flashing that newer version and it failed, whereas the older, attached version worked.

2. Copy that file, magisk_selinux_manager_v1.0.zip, to your phone (your Download folder and SD card are good places) or to Google Drive.

3. Open Magisk Manager. If you don't have it, then download Magisk from https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445 and flash it in TWRP.

4. Press the hamburger button in the upper left corner of Magisk Manager and choose Modules.

5. Press the orange, circular button with "+" on it at the bottom of the screen.

6. Press the hamburger button in the upper left corner and choose the location where you copied magisk_selinux_manager_v1.0.zip in step 2.

7. Select magisk_selinux_manager_v1.0.zip and, when the flashing procedure asks, choose Permissive mode.

8. When it's done, press the orange Reboot button.

That's it. Cameras should be working now.
[Google Camera Mods] Osprey00:
I've found a GCam mod that lets you cycle to the wide angle lens with the button in the lower left that ordinarily switches between the back and front lenses. It's a mod of v6.1, so it works with custom Pie ROMs like LineageOS 16.0.

Link: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog621/

In the camera settings, find "Auxiliary camera setting" and set the "switch method" to Cycle. If the Auxiliary settings don't exist, then edit/add the following in build.prop:

vendor.camera.aux.packagelist=com.google.android.GoogleCamera
camera.aux.packagelist=com.google.android.GoogleCamera

(Some people, maybe those on LG stock, need only the first line. I'm on LineageOS and need only the second line. If you simply add both, you'll cover both bases and maybe save some time).

The only little quirk for me is that, about 1/3rd of the time, the rear camera that I'm trying to cycle to doesn't come up (instead, I get a black screen) and I have to re-press the button several more times until it does come up. It's a minor irritation, but I think that I can live with it in order to have the feature (which I wish more GCam mods would include).

Try disabling HDR. I've tested some GCam mods that produced messed up pictures when HDR is enabled and, of course, HDR adds a little bit of lag (or a lot if you have HDR+ Enhanced enabled).
[Google Camera Mods] mon0theist:
Just got the Pie update for LG V30, anyone know the best GCam version? The 5x version on the OP was great, no issues whatsoever
[Google Camera Mods] rundumdieuhr:
Long press cycle to wide/normal angle is quite common behaviour for GCams supporting wide angle.

Arnova8G2's newest version beta (see below) even got an aux button to switch: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80214544&postcount=2431

Arnova8G2's 6.2.030 versions on top of the following page are pretty much perfect for me (even though still beta):

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2-beta/

Stable I had been using before is 6.1.021 v 1.7.190716.1800.
[Google Camera Mods] Miptzi:
I fixed ARNOVA's disabling "Saber" on advanced menu. No more green pics. But I can't set color temp to some settings other than stock, it gets green again. Using it nonetheless, nice pictures.

Cstark27 won't work even disabling hdr... Will keep on ARNOVA's
[Google Camera Mods] Osprey00:
I didn't know that. Thanks. Still, I'm not sure that I would remember that months or even years from now. I'm partial to intuitive features that I can easily discover after forgetting, and having the cycle button cycle through all cameras on the phone seems most intuitive to me.

Thanks. I've already installed and played with that. It works, but I don't like it as a solution as much as the cycle method.

Lg v20 h910 - alpha Omega - 8.0
[Google Camera Mods] C D:
The following can all be installed at the same time (they have different package names) on my V20s (H918 and US996) on Alpha Omega Oreo:

GCam 5.1

cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3_fu24-05h

GCam 6.1

MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V1d_fu24-01g

NoHex_MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2a

The latter two 6.1 versions seem to be the most popular among V20 users for getting Night Sight. I don't take enough photos yet to see a big difference between the two, so I still keep them both installed.

Hi, need some direction. I have lineage 15.1 newly installed and wanted to get a better camera experience.

Is there any way to set the camera shortcut to gcam (double tap volume down when phone is locked)

I've removed the default lg camera app and quickmemo app (so Key Plus from playstore won't work)
[Google Camera Mods] Osprey00:
I'm not familiar with that button shortcut and it doesn't work for me on LineageOS 16.0, but double tapping the power button does work to launch GCam. If you're using a custom OS and have "Jump to camera" (search for it) enabled in system settings, try that, instead. Also, I would try installing a different camera and, then, if either button shortcut gives you the option of which camera to launch, choose "always" to permanently save the setting and then uninstall the different camera.
[Google Camera Mods] wp007:
I have LG H850 and installed the unoffical LOS16 from developer x86cpu. Unfortunately not a single Gcam is working on my phone. No matter which version I install (Arnova's, NoHex versions and so on) it crashes directly from the start. I also cleared cache and dalvik in recovery but this didn't help. Could anybody give me a hint what the issue could be?

I asked the same question in the LOS16 forum, but it seemed reasonable to me to post it here, too.

Edit:

I have to give an all-clear signal. It was my fault. I overlooked that Google Services are necessary to run GCam. Since my LG is Google-free I had to install MicroG services and then could run the app.

Latest one i have currently is 5.1.xxx.

Thank you.
[Google Camera Mods] KUSOsan:
Pretty sure you need 8.0 Oreo for night sight. I haven't seen any version yet thats been modded to successfully work on nougat
[Google Camera Mods] stewie-droid:
Thank you. Is that night sight feature available with usage of HDR+ Enhanced meaning you can use both at the same time or is that seperate feature that can not be used with HDR+ Enhanced.

I love HDR Enhanced but low light is not that great with 5.1 version so i'm wondering if both can be used at same time producing HDR+ Enhanced but with better exposure?

I'm not sure how in practice that would look like.
[Google Camera Mods] KUSOsan:
It's a whole separate shooting mode like photo sphere or portrait. On some of the modded version I think you might be able to force more frames kinda like HDR+ enhanced mode but yes it's a whole different thing.

Best Gcam for V20 with Night Sight?

I just downloaded cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3 for my V20 (H990DS) but found that it doesn't have Night Sight, which is a feature that I really like. What's the best apk to download for Night Sight?
[Google Camera Mods] C D:
You'll need GCam 6 or higher and be on Oreo or higher to get Night Sight. For the V20 on Oreo, MGC_MIX2S_JOKER_dev1.apk has been the most recent popular GCam 6.1 port. More info in this thread from the V20 forums.

There are a few more updated APKs from the same dev that you could also check out, but I haven't tried them yet (you can try any that don't have Q in the name):

Gcam images worse than stock camera on LG V20

I've been trying out Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_V2.2.190716.1800-Final on my LG V20 (H990DS). I've found the image resolution to be significantly worse on Gcam than on the stock camera app on the phone, which surprised me - see attached image samples for a comparison.

Are there any default settings that I should be tweaking in Gcam to get the best out of it?

Hello

I was wondering which version of Gcam is best for LG G6 H872 Havoc OS 3.1 ?
[Google Camera Mods] 42n4:
This version works in Havoc 3.1 and 3.2

cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3.apk

even with the beast kernel H870_-Beast-Kernel_PIE-A10.zip with many governors (I hope they really change the performance) and Magisk 20.3, Viper4Android drivers v4afx-rootless_01.15.2020.zip
[Google Camera Mods] 42n4:
No, If it works with your phone. I have LG G6 H870 and want to choose a wide camera from time to time and I was glad with results.

--------

Now I have checked GCam_7.2.010_Urnyx05-v2.2.apk just works not only for default lens in Havoc 3.2 Q. After switching with the on screen 1x 2x (you can enable wide lens in advanced settings as tele lens, do not choose 0.4x widelens in menu advanced settings) it works fine finally!

--------

cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3_fu24-05h.apk switches in the same way as cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3.apk.

Just compare photos and use the newest 7.2 (night photos!) or older 5.1. I think normal photos are sometimes better for 5.1, but everyone should evaluate on his/her own. I try to use the 7.2. as my default camera and report results in a week.

-------

This gcam 7.2 is better than the stock one (sharper and more natural colours). I own two units of LG G6 (a stock and havoc Q versions), so I compared their photos.

This one looks like it's working alright.

Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_BF_V2.2.1.190822.1145.apk
[Google Camera Mods] AsItLies:
Yup, while not perfect, best I've tried for Q-10 roms, I'm running 17.1 lineage. Oops, on a V30 btw.

It doesn't have a config file nor ability to load / save one, from what I can tell. But, not

sure it's really needed as *most* everything is great.

There are a few circumstances where the app will close, especially when using the wide angle

lens. Front pics are awesome, as good as they get I think, so *big* improvement over others (on

aosp roms anyway).

Video works in normal lens, think wide angle worked also (can't remember everything I tired), sound

works. I left it to save on internal storage, but everything shows up with the Gallery app.

Best one for me, so far, thanks for mentioning it.

On NightSight display is dark, photo not perfect (often smudged, not too pretty). It was better on previous version I had. Keep on searching for perfest one...

I am trying to use GCAM to record me playing guitar. When I use Easy Recorder app I can set 44kbps bitrate (maximum) so the audio gets pretty good (pretty good indeed!). However, when using GCAM to record video, the audio is never that good. Is there a way or a distro of GCAM that allows me to set the audio bitrate to maximum available?

Even using the default camera app of my smartphone to record video, the audio never gets as good as the EASY RECORDER app! If you guys now any video recorder app that allows me to set bitrate to audio I would love to try it out!

I have some difficulties with the app crashing. I have a V30+ unlocked version, stock software.

I couldn't install the three latest versions (problem parsing the package even after giving File Manager permissions to install apps):

The latest version I could (and did) install is:

The app launches, I grant permissions, and I can open the quick menu up top and change, for example, if flash is enabled. However all other actions cause the app to crash. Trying to get to the settings opens it for a second, then the app crashes (it disappears). All other actions result in an instant crash (app disappears, no error message).

I tried clearing the app data, rebooting, force stopping the LG camera/clearing its data/removing its permissions, clearing the pixel app data again, and rebooting. Still the same issue. All my Google apps are up to date.
