While I haven't found the best settings yet (there are tons of them)

Arnova's Advanced 1.5 https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/

Works great! Night Sight, of course, doesn't work but it doesn't crash, Photobooth crashes but that's it, the rest works perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jovan1997:
Older version is better... 5.1 i mean...Maybe need better config for Arnova 1.5, you can send me ur to try?

First photo is from 5.1, second Arnova 1.5, 3th from Samsung stock app
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Gunde:
Doesn't work for me. I mean, yes it technically works, but it just snaps a single image straight off the viewfinder. No HDR or HDR+

Flash doesn't work , does it ?

Because whenever I turn it on, app freezes and crashes

Yea, same with 5.1 and 6.1. But for day i dont need flash,just hdr+ :o

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jostian:
Strange, V1.5 works the best for when there is good light, but i took a range of photos with the stock camera and then took the same photos with gcam and then looked at them at 100% and i tell you there is very little difference. In some the oem camera shots look better and in others the gcam shots look better. Not the big difference i was hoping for.

Any suggestions pls ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xchatter:
Use Samsung Camera. For now you won't find anywhere a Gcam port with everything working and working smoothly. I've tried the "usable" ports, and I think it's just not worth it using them. 0 benefit imo. Others might think differently.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Naerade:
I can't believe it, a WORKING HDR with a bunch of parameters that also work, no need to reboot at every change, no crash and no lag, I can't thank you enough for giving a good link. The only "problem" I face is the progression in the notification panel that stay until manual FC, even if HDR is already processed.

It was not working like you on my Note 9 8/512, I changed some parameters in developer mode and now it's ok (see mine : Gcam parameters https://imgur.com/a/sOtahYK)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] babak:
hi, can you help mee please to find developer mode please? i don,t see it any where.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] hilfebitte:
I use 2 GCam ports, one for day time and one for night time

everything works (except HDR in portrait with front camera) without a hiccup, no fc's

got the APKs and settings from the telegram group (sorry long time ago I don't have the link any longer but i found it here on XDA)

Gcam still beats Sammy in quality, noise reduction, color accuracy, etc

it's very easy to see the difference when enlarging details in a picture (eyes, letters, shadows, etc)

Sammy cam is getting better but still produces over saturated pics in bright conditions and lots of noise in low light conditions

I do use Sammy cam sometimes for super slow-mo and Manual video

there are lots of ports and really confusing at times, and most will crash on start

but once cache is cleared and correct settings complete, it works wonderfully. definitely worth the effort
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] babak:
could you tell us what the correct settings are? last night I tried to take a picture at night, it was all purple.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bober10113:
did you read the information provided in the link given?

here it is again:

https://mackytravel.com/gcam-6-1-night-sight-samsung-s10-exynos/

apply the config file as stated. read this threads previous pages to know where and how to apply it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] babak:
certainly, it was the first thing I did, and I got the result with the photos in busted colors.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bober10113:
works fine here using the night version of the two suggested apk...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bober10113:
so if you were able to restore settings accordingly i dunno.

does removing setting yeild same results?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] babak:
if I remove the recommended settings by opening the night mode I see only a black screen and but if I use that file settings, the night mode works but with very poor results, I took a picture, it almost seems like there is a whitish film above, another one out house looks yellow and purple.

I'm sure the manager is wrong settings for my phone, a note9 exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bober10113:
at least you can see that the settings do acxtualy apply. i think that it is just a question of "playing" with the settings now.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] hilfebitte:
the thing is that there are several ports of GCam for Exynos

some based on GCam 5.1, others on 6.1

by different developers: Arnova, Idan and clones of those

some use configuration files, others you have to set everything yourself

some have access to developer's options, others not

and every one has different settings (exposure values, etc)

I've tried them all

it's easy for me because I just clone the different variants and give them different names: GCam1, GCam2, etc so I can compare them side by side

the best and easiest to set is the GCam i got from the telegram group for GCam Exynos for S9+ and Note9

there are different builds depending on your Android version and if you have root or not

in that group, they link you to the downloads and have videos/images showing you clearly what you have to do

it was several months ago so I'm not in that group anymore and don't remember exactly where i got the invite but it was here on XDA (one of the several threads related to it)

one thing I can tell you, the variant that uses configuration files doesn't work well, it over exposes and is useless in most situations

for night time I'm using a build named "Night Sight", as the name says it's a GCam tweaked purposedly for night use WITHOUT overexpose or weird colors

for day time, there's a build called "Day Camera" that is tweaked accordingly also

if you get a version that gives you weird colors or overexposure/banding/pixelation, ditch it and look for better builds

as i said, the easiest is getting in that telegram group. knowledgeable people will better guide you yet until you succeed in installing the GCam version that suits your needs

good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Naerade:
Hi,

It's at the end of the parameters screen of the app, in "Help and feedback". I didn't see it at first, I had to restart app a few times then it appeared like it as hidden at the down of the screen!

(attached pictures are the difference between Samsung HDR and Gcam HDR+ ; and the name of the two app I use depending on night or day situation, none has nightsight, but at least it's not purple at all!)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] babak:
I thank you, I checked, but when I touch help & feedback nothing happens and I see nothing, in any case the purple color came to me only in night mode.

But which version are you talking about precisely?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RonChinoy:
Try the new night mode which we all got with the Aug security patch. Much much better than gcam night mode.

Samsung has done a superb job.

I spent 2 weeks trying to get this to work and when i finally did. I found the Samsung app works better.

Every function from AR emojis to dark mode is better on the stock camera.

The best version that works I found here. (90%) After that, I tried all the latter versions but none worked. i.e. Advanced G-Cam etc.

Front camera portrait no longer working like S7/S8/Note because Samsung limits API access to front camera. No raw support and no gcam portrait mode selfie.

There needs to be another workaround to bypass this limitation set by Samsung.

I'm using the 3.5 version. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rowihel2012:
Whatever you do

All images form this app are soft details

Noise isolation makes details softer than stock cam

We need version 6 with night sight
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alfin97:
Just hoping anyone can share their most optimal default settings that I can follow for normal day-to-day shots, since I'm totally a newbie.

And yea, having night sight would be dope! I saw the photo examples and they were magnificent.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Gunde:
Sounds like you're just used to Samsungs unrealistic over-sharpening. To me the GCam photos looks much more natural.

The only change I made was HDR+ quality to 100%
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alfin97:
Indeed, I did a simple comparison between Note 9's stock camera with Gcam. Stock camera tends to over-brighten the photos, and colors are less natural. Gcam, on the other hand, provides less noise, more detail, and much more natural color.

The Gcam hasn't been always reliable though, it sometimes results very dark images, and most of the photos are even darker than the real life lighting condition (while stock camera's images are always brighter than real life lighting).

By the way, I wonder what does the HDR+ Underexposure Multiplier do?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FYL21:
This is really annoying - I deleted GCam images and also from the Google Photos bin, and now there's blank images in my Samsung Gallery app. They're no longer in my folder, but the blank images still show up even after deleting once I restart the app!

Restarting your phone fixes it, at least after uninstalling the app and clearing the gallery cache/data.

It's a real shame that all the awesome new versions from Pixel 3 doesn't work for Exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Phosphenetre:
What's the current latest and best working port for UNROOTED Exynos?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
I guess for me, in regards to Google's camera for the Pixel series, using an almost-working version seems a bit foolhardy if you're doing it mainly to get the best images out of the camera you're carrying everyday (our Note 9). For everyday situations, I feel that our N9 camera is great. If I find myself attending special events or something where I want the best image I can get, I'll just take the proper tool for the job. My Sony DSLR or my advanced point and shoot (Sony HX99).

But if you're doing it from a purely mobile enthusiast angle where you wanna see how much you can push the needle, I totally respect that. I hope I haven't insulted anyone with this opinion.
