[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zetanator:
Im only asking because I am not sure if the tone map was the only thing that was updated in the new version. But its not big deal. I just notice that the new version seems to very slightly grey out the final images. Also the HDR Enhanced seems to lack details and has a greenish tint in low light photos. Regular HDR + seems to be better in low light and does not have a greenish tint. Any reasons for this or is it another bug?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
I didn't notice any tint on my end and I thoroughly tested it in every lighting angles you can imagine.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] jpaolucci1984:
Pie?

Has anyone tested out the new Android Pie update would that have Portrait included in it?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
what android pie update that includes portrait mode? samsung has always had portrait mode...
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] jpaolucci1984:
My S9 doesn't, wasn't sure if a new android update would bring portrait mode to my camera, I get the feeling from your response that it has nothing to do with the ROM but the hardware. I apologize I am not as educated on this stuff as you.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheTofu:
It seemed to crash regardless of frames, tried default, tried 46.

I can try it again at 46 to double check if you'd like.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ferdinand81:
App chash once I open it. Could you share the best configuration? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nicoleguizamon:
Its working so weird in this last update, it took just a few portraits mode shots, and now, after that it just freeze when i click the shoot button in portrait mode, dont make any noise or anything, but appear in the norification bar something like if the apk is processing something but it never ends, and in the galery appear a broke archive. I close it from memory like 10 times and it works again in the simple mode, but when i try again the portrait..same history it never took a portrait mode Picture again. After that i erease all the information to put again the configuration.. and i cant make it work (the portrait mode) again, appear the mode a bit freeze like allways but the shot buttom dont do anything and.. well.. the same that i explain up there, sorry about my english! Hope u understand what im trying to say!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
This is because portrait mode has never work properly for any snapdragon 845. This problem will not be fixed until pixel 3 / 3 XL system dump leak so we can get more information.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] thegameksk:
I'm running a snapdragon note 9. I toggled portrait mode in settings but only blur shows.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
Did you bother to read any of this thread at all before chiming in? Of course it did! Because it doesn't work, look at the post RIGHT ABOVE YOURS!!!

Not to mention that this is NOT the note 9 forum nor is this Port aimed at the note 9 either, so why you even though it was a good idea to add your 2 cents is completely baffling to me.

Jfc its no wonder no dev wants to stick around and work on these devices ?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] thegameksk:
Maybe you should learn to read. Earlier in THIS thread xterminato07 told someone to try it on the Note 9 and let him know if it works. It did work and portrait mode appears. As for the user above me now pay attention PORTRAIT MODE APPEARS unlike for me. Lastly even in the Note 9 forums there is a link to here.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] diogobuique:
This gcam didn't work on my galaxy s9 snapdragon version. What I should to do ??
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
Guys guys... calm down! Did you try force closing the app and restarting it again? Once you set up gcam, it should have a toggle that say portrait mode for all or something like that, then close gcam. Close it from memory completely and start it back up again.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Alves-CA:
[MENTION=3266378]xterminater07[/MENTION] Very grateful for your great port! The samsung software is very bad, leaves us looking like a wax doll. After the release of Pixel 3, do you think we could have an application working fine in portrait mode?

Sorry for my bad english. Google translate...
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
everyone is waiting for that release as well. Hopefully some magic can happen in a month!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] aer0zer0:
Good times
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Shalajarias:
I just downloaded the latest version on my S9 and when I start the camera it will just show a black screen for the normal camera with an icon of mountain and won't let me take a photo. If i switch to the front camera it will show what the camera sees but I can't take any photos with it. Any ideas?

edit:

I seem to have a visual now after reinstalling the app 5 times but still cant take photos with the back camera.. front camera now works..
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hybrid Soldier:
Did you follow all the steps after installing the app, like cleaning cache and etc?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Shalajarias:
Yea not sure why but it seems to work now after doing it multiple times in a row.. So all good xD

I'm actually happy as I can now use the remote control app on my smartwatch with Gcam
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sobiiboy:
Wheres the latest version of GCam

Hello bro, I truly appreciate your dedication and hardwork in trying out these tests and bringing out something! Let the stupid people cry idk why you keep replying to every cry baby. Ok this forum is 64 pages can you reply me with your latest updated LINK OF GCAM. THANKS
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
They are always in the op dude
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Gerstark:
after installing, what's the best set up in configuration for the Note9?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sobiiboy:
i just installed the latest updated file of GCAM from the first page link and its not working. There is only Lens Blur feature, no Portrait. So as I have gone through all the pages of this Thread and concluded that We all have to wait Patiently for Pixel 3 to be out so we can enjoy same thing on our SD845 - S9 as well. Hands down I am patiently waiting now. Correct me if I'm wrong. Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
You need to follow the recommended settings to get portrait mode to become available. It will take photos but the viewfinder is incredibly laggy like you get 1 frame every 2sec instead of a video but if you snap the photo anyway it will take it if you set the settings correctly
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Dopemusic89:
Hello i really appreciate all the time and effort put into making this work for us. Ive noticed that if i change device type to pixel xl 2 and then increase the hdr+ on front camera toggle and toggle pixels auto hdr+ i believe i may have gotten front cam hdr+ working. Is this just wishful thinking or has it been working all along? Also should i be messing with these settings or is the default setting the best and most compatible? Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Javs2010:
Thanks for this! For me it didn't work before or at least didn't show any info that it was processing hdr+ and now it does and I can tell a difference compared to stock camera big time
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Dopemusic89:
Oh yes its rediculous. Its looks so clear it looks like i updated my front facing camera hahaha now thats 8mp.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Javs2010:
Agreed but wanna say that switching it to Pixel XL one the pictures come out so much better at least from my experience
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] jsanta11:
Agreed
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] oski_58:
Anyone try portre Mode? İ have Green pic in portre. What settings? Which version? Thx :)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] martin80k:
This also works (kinda) on exynos but after changing to pixel 2 xl anc restarting camera it stops. Quality is no better than stock on exynos and stabilization don't work.... anyhow stock s9+ camera is the reason I am returning this phone as all mods deliver more less the same overpricessing videos both front and rear low light and blurry bleak portraits both rear and front... not sure why not more owners are not calling Samsung out over their hyped up crappy camera and return the phone as they should... I reiterate my old iPhone 6 plus delivers better smoother more realistic results with its archaic camera... is it darker low light with iphone ? Yes and grainy with front camera but still more realistic with both pics and videos... samsung s9 is not a flagship, and if it is android has long way to go to catch up. Yes it has jack, storage, screen, sound, but overall experience finicky and not as good to even my old iphone and I am shocked at best
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Javs2010:
Idk about you but at least for me (snapdragon version) there's a big difference in general compared to stock. Not only in sharpness but also the quality in general of everything. Lowlight pics imo the stock is still better. But if you think the iPhone is better for you then make the switch back.

best version: Aug 20, 2018, and my settings:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Gerstark:
my photos are super grainy in bad light, i'll stick with the stock cam :(
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] CatPandaFish:
HDR+ turned on? I think there was a correction made for low lighting in the August update. Have you reinstalled since then?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Javs2010:
Use the pixel XL setting instead of the others and it should work great. I don't get any grainy pics, even in lowlight it does a really good job with the processing
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] CatPandaFish:
It wont let me change to Pixel II XL. When I change it, the application crashes and then I have to reinstall because I cannot get it to launch.

EDIT

I got Pixel XL II to work. I had to set it, then change my back cam res to 16:9 (8.3mp) then back to 4:3 (12mp).
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] PsiPhiDan:
I'm using the Note9 (SD). Does anyone know why it takes so long to take a picture? When I press the shutter button, a circle appears on the screen and it slowly gets thicker in a circular fashion until the whole circle is complete. This takes about 1-2 seconds. Then it takes the picture. Also, the screen dims. Any idea why this is happening? Here are my settings right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] explorer-10:
What are the recommended settings to use to get front camera portrait mode to be working correctly, despite the live preview lagging?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
They are in the op, in the same post you downloaded the apk from.

(Remember that part I said about "reading"?)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] explorer-10:
Had I known, I wouldn't have posted. I didn't see any in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] zingzongzang:
It's the advanced hdr. You can turn it off at the top of the viewfinder
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] explorer-10:
Does that same setting apply to the 50frames version of the gcam port update?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xterminater07:
Portrait mode on front and rear is hit and miss to be honest. No one knows the reason why, until the pixel 3 hits and the apk is dumped from it... there's nothing we can do now for snap845 devices.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] stanleyopar2000:
That's the only thing that's left for the pixel 3 to leak at this point amiritelads??
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] explorer-10:
On a brighter note, the Pixel 3XL was leaked in HK, maybe ask that person who has it for details!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
Oh man good idea. Someone should try to get s firmware dump!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nicoleguizamon:
Sorry about this, but maybe you can help me people, or maybe anyone have the same issue with the stock camera. I know this is not the place but i think this can be the only place to have an answer cause Samsung dont know how to help me... this is what happened to me!

Im Nico from Argentina, from the first day of use I felt that something was wrong with the camera of my s9 Plus, yesterday I finally discovered what was happening. When using live focus mode the device does not blur the image area corresponding to the upper part of the phone.

I never had a fall and I already did a factory restoration but the problem persists. Somebody with the same issue??? Any idea of what can be or how to fix it? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hani88:
very nice!!

any chance to make slower shutter speed with less iso for selfie ? I tried it with low iso setting but the iso is still 640
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Diexmax:
Both S9+ and Note 9 this results with gcam is poor compared with stock cam.

I say with property

Decent gcam apk for Snapdragon 845, only release and mod gcam of Pixel 3.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Javs2010:
What settings are you using? Gcam takes far better photos for me than stock.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] zergow:
Gcam from Pixel 3 just got uploaded by androidpolice

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] davidalindsey:

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] zergow:
Note that a minimum of Android 9 Pie is required, and that Live Lens, H265, live focus tracking, Top Shot, and Night Sight won't be added with this APK; they'll remain Pixel 3 exclusives. This apk it is so that the developers can review it and work on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] davidalindsey:
Figured as much

Thanks

Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL - Google Camera

Now is possible to develop apk for snap 845 that portrait mode works?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] chicohonda91:
fingers crossed
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Poke_N_PDA:
So hopefully today's announcement will make for a better working port. If we can get some or all of the new features that would be pretty awesome too.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] stanleyopar2000:
We can't use the Pixel 3 camera itself... but perhaps we can use some dependancies from it to get the current portrait mode September build working with more stability (no memory leaks)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Aakash Kaushal:
And what settings are u using? Please share it with us.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Javs2010:

Correction of auto-exposure HDR+: reduce exp. to 4
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] GatoL0c0:
Your problem has absolutely nothing to do with this mod. I suggest you ask in a more relevant forum/thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] GnMrty:
What gcam mod has working portrait for S9 exynnos?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] mrgino:
This is fantastic, exactly what I needed for my S9. One request - I'm trying to open GCam from a lockscreen shortcut (either on-screen or using bxActions) but this still requires me to enter PIN or fingerprint. Can you add a setting that allows GCam to be shown over the lock screen?

Open Camera does this somehow! Details: https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/help.html#settings

Show camera when locked - If you have a lock screen on your device (e.g., PIN to unlock), Open Camera by default will show above the lock screen - i.e., if locked, you won't have to enter the PIN to use Open Camera. The device still needs to be unlocked in order to go to the Settings or Gallery. If you would prefer Open Camera to always be unavailable when your device is locked, you can disable this option.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] GnMrty:
May I know what mod you're using?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] wazzic:

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] GnMrty:
Whats your setting? Does portrait mode work on you? Doesnt seem to work on mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] jsanta11:
Portrait mode is yet to work for anyone, but a chance that with the new gcam for sd845 there might be a solution for own phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
Again, it "works" in that if you set the settings right it will take an ok picture, but it will always have that super lag "one frame every 2-3sec" issue until devs can spend some time with the FULL pixel 3 camera and framework still it can be ported correctly for us
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hani88:
any respond please
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] ygdant13:
Arnova8G2, managed to put all the resources to work from the new port of gcam for One Plus 6 ... good news ...

- HDR + works (front and back camera)

- Portrait mode works (front and back camera thank's B-S-G )

- Motion photo works (front and back camera)

- And everything that works in the previous version

It doesnt work on Samsung. I just tried it and got multiple FC's... it only works on 9.0
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Poke_N_PDA:
Damn. Hopefully it won't be too much longer before we get the 9.0 update. Treble should make things happen quicker. We got leaked beta builds not long ago.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] ygdant13:

Will it only be possible to install a mod gcam pixel 3 when samsung provides Android 9?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] stanleyopar2000:
We're hoping that some dependancies pulled from the newest build will fix the issues on the cureent Oreo September build like stability and portrait mode

The actual APK itself? Most likely
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xc rider:
Stock camera is soooo much better....
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] gcaramalac:
the main camera does not see any difference, however the frontal camera of the native app is ridiculous near the gcam, mainly in portrait mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] xc rider:
Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
I completely disagree. The properly tuned gcam mods absolutely blow the stock camera app out of the water for everything except video and that is only if you have the zero camera mod installed.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hybrid Soldier:
I saw some pictures comparing the new pixel against the iphones and I'm really excited to get a gcam port to our s9+.... It looks amazing and people are saying that is the software that's incredible

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] partcyborg:
I haven't looked into this stuff at all so I could be wrong, but I am under the impression that there is stuff still unreleased that might needed to fully fix things, so if that is the case then we are still blocked on the full pixel 3 launch
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zizo Zipzinger:
Yep you are right. I think in a month or so all the features will be released and the bugs should be kept to minimal.

Nothing for note 9 snapdragon

I'm still struggling to find a working copy for the Note 9 snapdragon

I tried to download the latest version but it shuts off immediately

I have tried another recommended copy from "Android Police"

they claimed to fit most devices but it lags for a min then shuts the whole phone and restart.....!!!

Interesting development: the GCam 6.1 for mi8 by BSG shows an image in the viewfinder. It's laggy as hell, but doesn't crash. Maybe this could be a starting point for a proper 6.1 port for the Note/S9?

I tested it on a note 9 snapdragon. it is really laggy but like you said it doesn't crash or force restart the phone.

Although I have to mention that the menu was working smoothly too..!!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] davidalindsey:
Same here

Looks promising

If you put the camera in Panorama, photosphere, Google Lens or move to the settings the camera runs perfectly fine
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Dopemusic89:
Also tried this as well. Very excited and hope it can be used. Using s9+ snapdragon and no force closes or restarts just very laggy and idk if you guys can actually snap photos but it just stays locked up after i try and warns of flash. But no force close. I believe the video side of things are working. :silly: have gone back to more stable version as posted here. Still using almost 100% more than the sammy cam. Even if this doesnt continue im very appreciative of all the work to get us here.
