I'm ok with that. Since normal mode has live preview, I frame the shot with it and then switch to night mode. I mean a stable version would be amazing but my priority is to be able to use the main camera. Other drawbacks are tolerable for me.

Anyone else getting the "cannot parse the package" error? I'm on a rooted LG V20 (Verizon) running Alpha ROM.

Many thanks to [MENTION=8472543]fu24[/MENTION] for your efforts on the port! You and all the other smart folks on here continually amaze me.

I only studied basic C language during college, but I tried diving into the code of the cstark27 and fu24 GCAM packages yesterday just to better understand what's going on. I'm very impressed in what you guys were able to do along with the other developers in the community in making the program more compatible with the LG phones. Do you guys have previous programming experience? Are there any other sources or forums than the links posted earlier that you would recommend?

A lot of the modifications were borrowed knowledge from miniuser123, Arnova8G2, BSG, and others. And many many many nights of digging through the code.
[Google Camera Mods] charliebigpot:
In case you are curious about the new mod with the Night Sight feature, here is a side by side comparison between stock wide angle and [MENTION=8472543]fu24[/MENTION]'s mod - tbh, I have no idea where the Night Sight feature got all that light, the room was completely dark.

Like others already pointed out, the night mode feature only works for the wide angle and no live preview. The blurriness of the lights in the background is probably because I couldn't really hold the phone still, it takes about 2secs to take the photo.

[MENTION=8472543]fu24[/MENTION] I'm running on LineageOS 15.1 on my LG G6, and I was wondering if there was a way to get a 2:1/18:9 resolution for the camera resolutions in your updated version of cstark's app? The app works great otherwise, keep up the good work!

This is achievable. When cstark assisted in the resolution of the second rear lens, he sent me a file that appeared 18:9.

I typically only get time to sit at the laptop and look at the code after my child goes to sleep, then when I'm trying to figure something out I don't pay attention to the clock until it's 3am and I'm like "crap, I have to wake up in 4 hours" :p

When I first started modding for the LG V30 this was almost an every night thing for many weeks. It drained me a lot even though I had fun.

I do not have formal programming experience/instruction. I have learned mostly everything from the internet and searching the right terms I suppose.

Best of luck. :good:

[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
It's a nice gesture but I can't accept. Thank you. I really didn't like my V30. If LG wants to give me a phone in the future to help their sales with unofficial Google Camera ports, then that's OK. :p
[Google Camera Mods] Goodday1:
you kinda disappointed with the V30 I don't know what's happened but you know buddy it's so sad. Don't give up. Bring us joy on the eve of the new year, please:crying::crying::crying:

Otherwise, we'd never be able to keep memories of amazing evenings:crying:

I'm not asking for a miracle.. just something like a base for other developers who will be able to improve quality and so on. Now we have nothing ((((

Are you interested on getting v40 one day? Maybe when all camera ID's become exposed
[Google Camera Mods] PhantomAndroid:
Haha, what did you not like about the LG v30 cstark? I heard it was a pretty good phone except for the selfie camera quality. All things equal, I personally still prefer the LG v20 due to the ability to use 6700 mAh extended batteries though. Hot-swapping two 6700 mAh batteries means video recording and picture taking all day long at concerts/amusement parks/mountain hikes. :)

I noticed BSG just released a new version of GCAM 6.1 today (MGC_6.1.021_FINAL_V1a_A8.1+.apk) in which Night Mode finally has a working live preview ability. Most of the app seems to be functioning now, but none of the input models are producing desirable results. (all of them have a green tint and don't seem to be processing the details/colors correctly). The rear camera seems to have some issues capturing and saving the images as well. Is anyone on a phone with Android Oreo getting decent results with their outputs yet? It's not obvious to me how far BSG and Arnova have gotten on the camera output based on their changelog notes.
[Google Camera Mods] Sid@developer:
Same here... Its not saving the pics... And selfies turn out to be greenish tint.... Android 8.1 here...
[Google Camera Mods] andriman:
The lower the value, the faster the processing speed.

The higher the value, the better the quality of the photo.

Try to find a balance.. It is also possible that there will be little to no difference regarding quality when comparing super high and medium, but the difference between processing the image may be high.
[Google Camera Mods] maester83:
For those interested in the play store now there is the application

GCam Tool is a tool offered by Google playstore that allows you to optimize the management of photos taken with Google Camera, automatically placing them in the gallery.

When making shots with the blurry background, Google Camera saves the photos in a new folder in the gallery. The app offers the possibility to automatically move them to the correct position.

On the main screen you can start or stop the execution of the app, while in the configuration panel you can select the folder in which Google Camera will save the photos and the desired destination, with the ability to choose whether to copy only the pictures portrayed or all.

[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
I installed V3.5 on my Pixel 2 and it is as fast as the stock camera app, while on my V30 it is noticeably slower. I do not know how Google optimized their phone so well with respect to GCam but it's amazing how much better it runs on the Pixels. On my Pixel I can capture ~10 photos and only have maybe 1 or 2 not HDR+ Processed and the phone doesn't lag. On the V30 I have to stop at 4 to 5 photos before it starts lagging and already have 1 or 2 not HDR+ Processed photos.

"Default" is what the Pixel's use. The HDR+ Parameters changes how many frames are captured in HDR+ Enhanced. From 7 at Default up to ~46 at Very High. I have found that handheld, Medium is the best compromise, but I usually just leave it at Default. Once the slow shutter speed mod is dialed in, it will give better results than changing HDR+ Parameters in my opinion. I mean, it already does as far as noise and detail goes, Adaptive Shutter mod just needs to be reigned in a little so it's not SO slow and makes handheld images blurry.

[MENTION=5447216]aer0zer0[/MENTION] has a magisk module to help with that I believe, please read his thread here in the Essential forum: https://xdaforums.com/essential-phone/themes/magisk-based-gcam-port-ar-sticker-t3730837

[Google Camera Mods] samdimparis:
[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION]

I join the thankful choir for the long exposure mode. I've tried several times this feature in other developers' mods but this is the first time it predictably works on the LG G6.

I noticed that when the scene gets really dark, the camera crashes. It seems to be related to the processing time. The waiting spinner ring is divided into 14 sectors and the camera can crash either in the beginning, before the first sector is completed, or in the middle of the processing. A strange thing however: after 4 sectors out of 14 are completed, the photo appears in the preview circle and the rest of the processing doesn't seem to impact the result. If the camera crashes after the 4th sector, you'll still get the picture. Another strange thing is the ISO indication. It's normally 50 or 53, but when the processing gets long, it always indicates 2147483647.

It looks like the picture are taken at the lowest available ISO. Would it be possible to progressively increase the ISO value as the lights are getting low, so the camera can keep a relatively fast processing time. I mean pictures are beautiful at iso 50, but they are still very nice even at iso 400. Maybe increasing the iso could solve the bug with crashing camera?

Give it shot honestly, its hit or miss, lots of phones with the same fix dont work? what phone are you using currently, and OS.

If you can send me a the media profile xml, and where it is located system/etc or vendor/etc ill take a look. Personally, if [MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] removed slo-mo entirely, in favor of anything in the world or nothing it all, id be good with it. Its janky anyways.
[Google Camera Mods] aakanayev:
Do you mean HDR+ enhanced, or you typical zero shutter lag HDR+? I can shoot ~10 photos with no lag in zero shutter lag HDR+ mode in v3.5 on Note8.

Thanks for all your work, by the way, I love how stable your version is on Note8, and slow shutter is a gamechanger.
[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
ZSL HDR+ (I also meant to say the photos were taken maybe half a second apart, right after moving the phone slightly so focus and exposure had to readjust - or quick photos of my moving child). I really am not a fan of LG's camera performance. Viewfinder FPS is pretty bad too, for a 2017 flagship... but oh well.

Thanks for the perspective from the Note 8. I tested one of my older versions on my coworkers S8, and even just panning it around the office it seemed pretty smooth and quicker than on the V30 but I didn't play with it extensively. :good: I've been curious how other phones did with the port.
[Google Camera Mods] aakanayev:
Top notch performance on Note8. Portrait works in front and back. Slow motion still kills the app, but you must already know that. Thanks again for all your work.

[MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] grazie per il duro lavoro che hai fatto e continui a fare per noi possessori di G6.

Ti scrivo dal mio LG-G6 H870 e sto usando la tua iltima versione di GCamv3.5. Nonostante credo le cose siano migliorate rispetto alla precedente versione, ho 2 appunti da farti. 1)ho ancora problemi con le foto il LL. Mi virano o verso il verde oppure verso il magenta (dipende ovviamente dalle impostazioni che metto). 2. Nelle foto, svafiate volte non vengono messe a fuoco nella maniera corretta (esempio volto, gli occhi messi a fuoco e le labbra no. P.S. non mi riferisco alla Modalità ritratto ma al classico "punta e scatta" oppure selfie) Sono l'unico ad avere questo problema?

Cosa mi consigli? Grazie per il tempo che ci dedichi.

Ho anch'io il problema che dopo una serie di scatti l'applicazione si arresta.
[Google Camera Mods] Maximus41:

[Google Camera Mods] SHosp:

Thank you for the hard work you have done and continue to do for us G6 owners.

I am writing from my LG-G6 H870 and I am using your latest version of GCamv3.5. Although I think things have improved compared to the previous version, I have 2 notes to make you. 1) I still have problems with the LL photos. They turn me either towards green or towards magenta (obviously depends on the settings I put). 2. In the photos, svafiate times are not focused in the correct way (example face, eyes focused and lips no PS PS I do not refer to the portrait mode but the classic "point and shoot" or selfie) I am the unique to having this problem?

What do you suggest me? Thank you for your time.

I also have the problem that after a series of shots the application stops.
[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
I'm going to skip "LG G6 Color Fix" in the code if Slow Shutter option is also enabled, in the next release.

I'm not too sure what you mean about focus. Try to tap to focus on a face, or use HDR+ Enhanced - it is usually sharper. If you tap to focus, focus will be locked until you restart the app, change cameras, or modes (a bug).
[Google Camera Mods] Tiemichael:
Is there any way to use this apps on a Xiaomi A1?

The A1 has 2 rear-cameras (normal, tele) and 1 front camera, but too bad the 2nd rear camera is not shown with " Camera2Test app".

[Google Camera Mods] cstark27:
I tried once, and got the shortcut added but couldn't get the code to work correctly. If I remember right, it would launch into Portrait Mode but didn't "register" correctly for the UI. So I abandoned the idea. You have to edit a few different files to add it.

Only two gcam ports were works ( _ttps://forums.androidcentral.com/lg-v40/922656-working-gcam-apk-lg-v40-download-links.html) but the quality is worse than the stock camera - oversharpening, and in low light the stock camera shoots much better.

Hi [MENTION=8472543]fu24[/MENTION], there seems to be an issue with your latest version of the cstark mod. I don't see it in the changelog notes, but during selfies my face looks almost like a doll.
