[MENTION=9404938]Zimonty[/MENTION] on MGC_5.3.015_MI8_V1a.apk do you enable Pixel's auto HDR+ ??? (BSG MOD Settings -> FIX -> Pixels auto HDR+)

I also left MIN FRAMES at 7 and put MAX FRAMES at 32, i see no reason for so many frames during daylight and the shutterspeed / processing is fast during dayshot.

Can you please test that to confirm? You think it will affect night shots? will continue tests tonight
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
The very individual reason is that rarely I am able to shot during daylight so I've not considered at all daylight situation!!!

I supposed to be the best with lowlight to maintain min frames high as not always AI perfectly understand light condition so I'm forcing it to do the best anyway!

But my small experience when tried it is that there's almost no difference so if you often shot in daylight it makes sense your choice.

Generally speaking, got to admit that shutter speed with HDR+ is an issue - BUT -

I've been "teached" that most of us, including me, are over-using HDR+ when in many circumstances it makes no sense.

When scene may move (any animated subject!!!) and exposure time is longer (low light) to force our N7+ to make a single picture from more shots (this is how HDR+ necessarily works) could result as a real boomerang in terms of quality of the picture taken.

Of course, I went often with standard HDR option and honestly I got good results, that is a good reason to keep going with this port.

Anyway I'll try to get more data about lower min frames and Pixels auto HDR+, at a first sight not giving me real reasons to use it but will go deeper into the issue.

Unhopefully cannot try in daylight and won't be able for a little more...
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Born2rein@gmail.com:
is it? Compared with that version. GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-15c.apk?

You can compare the differences between the three versions?

OP6_GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-15c.apk

GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-15c.apk

GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-16b.apk
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
Pixel auto HDR+ at the moment is not giving problems.

Few tries only, but you changed my mind: better to keep it switched on!!!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] pereztroika89:
I have MGC_5.3.015_MI8_V1a.apk version and I don't find the frames option and neither BSG MOD Settings -> FIX -> Pixels auto HDR+

Any ideia?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tomar777:
This gave a worse result in nightshots pffff....

A night photo with street lights, the phone was fast but highlights came too bright and shadows too dark = poor hdr processing.

Got a much better result when i set MIN FRAMES back to 32 (took longer of course)

So like with Arnova's version, here too, for night photo pump up the HDR (min frames 32) for best results.

For moving objects set it at 16 so you get better speed and some good processing

Takes nice sharp photos and noise is low as said.

P.S. Slow motion ain't working (i really don't care, i use the nokia app if needed)

i think they are both good as a daily driver, all you need is the HDR tweak in the night

Now we wait for the nightshot version to get ported to our device, dear devs do your magic...

[MENTION=4860033]Arnova8G2[/MENTION] i think everything is working fine on nokia 7p cant wait to see stable and thanx for the port...
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
At least for me the new not working feature ( slowmo and movement already not working on the other 6.1 ports) is the manual HDR+.

If activated, when taking pictures not under HDR+ mode, cam is not taking any pictures at all.

So must keep HDR+ in auto mode.

For nightmode, in the rare cases you can use it really gives better shots.

But in terms of overall performance I think that the best 5.x port are still better
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
Cannot understand what you're referring to at the beginning of your post but got to say that this version surprised me.

The shutter problem is the same, very slow at least from high on, but less buggy then most of others including mi8 I was lovin.

I focused on 16b only, and appreciated it.

For the moment on still scene HDR+ on high is already at MI8 level.

Will make some more try!

[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
Which port not working?

Are you on the model 1055 with pie official?

If so, this is my condition and I've tried almost any of the ports mentioned in the last pages.

Noone of them is completely unworking so what you said sound strange to me.

If you better explain your problem...

Arnova's Gcam 6.1 debug port is perfect. Night sight so freaking awesome

Only downside is that the viewfinder lags a bit. Its kinda noticeable.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
I agree for night sight, and got to admit that in any other situation of medium or low light when cannot use night sight the compromises between quality and shutter speed make this Arnova's very suggested for everyday. Unfortunately cannot check it on daylight.

Just to complete on my previous indication, GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-16b in low light is very slow but from very high on HDR+ is giving very good results.

Also, one of the few APK with a working slowmo!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] alessa:
For me the slowmo dont work with this fu24-16b
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
Oh boy, I confused myself, slowmo is working on this one:

GCam_5.1.018_by_SerJo87_1.6RC3_test1_pre-Release_ewg
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tomar777:
i gave the Arnova's debug version a quick night test. seems that night mode is the same as having HDR setting on 32 frames on MI8 version or super high on arnova's pixel2 , although the MI8 seems to be a little better in light details and noise.

Good thing is you can use forced HDR+ at daytime (did some indoor testing looks ok) and have the switch for nightmode.

Viewfinder is playing some tricks, as said its very slow in nightmode, I wonder if this could be fixed by stopping the continuous focusing and just wait for the tap-to-focus (devs ?)

Also there is some flickering in mid-light environment.

And if i tap to focus more than once, focus circle starts looping (what is it doing?)

Well Arnova and other Dev's , once again thanks for the hard job, ported gcam is one of the reasons i chose the N7+ and i already get great shots!

And a tip for night HDR: dont point the focus at objects that are too close to you, results will be poor (tested in a bar)
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] alessa:
and what camera do you use for now?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
In this period I'm changing to try them all but I'd say that last Arnova's 6.1 port could be my one.

What tomar wrote is correct, so in terms of "lab" situation mi8 or fu16b are sometimes giving better shots.

But unless you're going for one shot one kill, I guess usually you to take more shots to cover a situation or an event, I decided that HDR process of Arnova's 6.1 worth to accept a small compromise for his quickness (and reliability).

The quantity of light captured in so few time is incredible.

Unlikely cannot test any cam in daylight but for inside pics many HDR pics processed in few time with this 6.1 with no problems andgood results so I think I'll go with it!

[MENTION=4860033]Arnova8G2[/MENTION]

Your latest port seems to be working alright for Nokia 7 Plus. LOVE the night sight feature. has a few bugs & does get sluggish often but I guess that would get better once newer ports come out.

Have a question though. As per this post: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-photobooth-motion-tracking-google-lens-pixel-2/amp/

"Portrait mode for the original Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL only works on human faces, though. That’s because the devices don’t have the required dual pixel camera sensor."

But Nokia 7 Plus DOES have 12 MP, f/1.8, 25mm (wide), 1/2.55", 1.4µm, dual pixel PDAF. So why does portrait mode only works with human faces on Nokia 7 Plus and not on animals or objects?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] jack-black:
I'm on Android P and none of the nigh sight ports work for me. Any idea when Pie support is coming?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tomar777:
Did you do a factory reset after updating to p? does your phone work ok in general?

Try phone cache cleaning and if you still got issues do a factory reset.

it is recommended that you clear cache and data of gcam before uninstalling each version you try, there are files remaining in the folder of gcam.

I noticed that after re-installing the previous version im using, the settings were exactly as i had em set before uninstalling.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] divvykev:
Same here. Cleared cache etc etc. May try a factory reset tonight and see. Only started yesterday.

[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
I'm using the last Arnova's 6.1 (debug) version, I'm on pie official, my N7+ is a 1055 model and night sight is working - quite strange is not working for you

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

Some ports can coexhists so the only suggestion is to install a couple of GCAM ports.

An example:

- Arnova's 6.1 is you preferred so you use it as your main cam (p.s.: I like it for the back cam but with the front cam is really really buggy!!!)

- You install another port that can coexhists and that support slowmo and lens blur (GCam_5.1.018_by_SerJo87_1.6RC3_test1_pre-Release_ewg was not my preferred, but supporting them both can be a wonderful secondary cam)

- You still have the stock cam for some other feature (like bootie and 2x)

I know it would be better to have it all on a single app but is still a sort of solution!!! :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Maddymiru:
I know I can use 2 different GCams as I am using 2 separate ones. But what I fail to understand is why the GCam can't take portrait images of non-humans.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Saswata Chakraborty:
I think since Pixel devices don’t have the required dual pixel camera sensor, Google included partial portrait mode on Gcam which works only on human. And that's why it doesn't work on any other devices as well (since Gcam was solely made for Pixel devices).
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Maddymiru:
Nokia 7 Plus has dual pixel technology on it's main sensor
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Saswata Chakraborty:
But if the application (Gcam in this scenario) doesn't support the function, you can't use it.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] jack-black:
After removing of all Gcam versions I had installed and fresh re-install of the 6.1 apk from Arnova it started working.

I don't know which version you have installed. I use the one from Nokia Power User link:

Yep. Works no problems with motion turned off. Thanks.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tomar777:
this is the original port for the pixels from XDA https://www.xda-developers.com/google-pixel-night-sight-google-camera-review/

I confirm it works on my T1055 after switching off slo-mo

Again view finder gets slower on night mode but not like the version i mention a few posts back.

First "lab-test" shows that the night mode does a good job.

Oh and no settings needed this time.

Beauty mode seems to kick in on portrait mode even if i have it off

Edit: problem found , after taking 2 hdr shots in a row, the wait circle appears and stays, and it does not let you take another pic, you must restart app

What not attached has not been touched.

Still miss any eventual modification for front cam, I've to understand if to use this as Arnova's front is buggy for me
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] alessa:
I will test in the dark and I let you know.

but this is not a version with night mode (v6). it is a version (5).

Hello

Sorry that this is slightly off topic and about installation issues. I really want to try night sight and have been trying to install both the cstark and arnova mods.

With all the cstark night sight enabled mods, the package fails to parse when staging the app. I've googled about this and tried a list of suggestions such as enabling developer mode and USB debugging, but to no avail.

With the arnova debug mod, I had to uninstall my current camera to be able to install it, but the app won't open. It says "Package installer has stopped."

I am using a TA-1055 model in the UK on Oreo 8.1 August security update as that's the latest available to me.

If anyone is able to help me out, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks, and thanks to those who have posted night sight comparison shots.

Edit - I've successful installed other versions of Google camera mod 6 with the pixel 3 UI

To be honest I noted the same when you suggested cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v4.2t3_fu24-04

[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] SimplePlanX:
I am using Android Pie now on my Nokia 7 Plus and my "GoogleCamera-Pixel3Mod-Arnova8G2-V3_Aux-4.04" now always shows HDR+ working in the backround after I took pictures. Always this notification and it is there until I restart my phone.

Any solution for this or any Mod that works well on Android Pie?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
I was a fan of 4.04 but on pie I moved, sorry can't help.

Anyway in terms of quality of shots I accepted the move because of Mi8 / 8.3b1 / Arnova's 6.1 debug were doing better

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 PM ----------

Stupid question: did you rebooted after system reboot?

In my case, I was missing some feature, for instance gesture menu was minimal and cannot activate the swipe up gesture.

I rebooted by myself the phone and it went fine.

If under system --> gesture the fourth option is not active cam then you should sortit all by rebooting as it's same issue faced by me!!!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] chudm:
great!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] MySaviour:
Yes I have restarted the phone a couple of times after the October update which came few days ago.

The "Jump to camera" in the Gestures menu is there but like I said it is not working with Google camera app when I try to open it from the lock screen.

I still can't fix this issue. Have anyone else experienced it? Any ideas?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] dev9163:
I suppose it asks you to unlock the phone when you double tap the button. Unlock it and select the Google Camera and press Always. It will start working. This is happening because of two camera apps and the system is giving you options like with all the other apps.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zimonty:
I've experienced in two ways, one is described above and not helpful to you.

The other one is not setting the gesture to always open gcam.

Until I let the gesture to ask me any time which cam to activate gcam is not properly operating under lock screen.

Surely this is not your case but as I've not a detailed description of what's happening with you I prefer to provide you both the cases I faced anyway, just in case it'll be helpful...

(Just seen that while I was writing Dev wrote exactly the same!)

In the meantime Arnova's debug 2 is on the field.

Happy to see that movement and slowmo are working!!!

Just miss lens blur but at a very first sight everything else is working ok.

Loving the results of your hard work, thanks Arnova!!!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] MySaviour:
Okay, I will try to explain as most detailed as I can.

I did everything possible I could think of. I gave the app permission in the settings, I selected Google camera to be the default app, I did unlock the phone after asking for the first time pressed Google camera and set it to always.

I know what I am supposed to do but nothing is working. I have been using Google camera app since 8.1 where everything was working as intended. But now this issue is really annoying and I can't manage to fix it that's why I am asking for your help.

No matter if I swipe up from the lock screen or double tap the power key the Google camera app opens and says it need permission in order to open. Screenshot here: https://imgur.com/a/Hsu5GT1

I hope I stated everything clear now and you might be able to help out.

Thank you!
