[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] i42o:
I just updated the playground app in order for me to get the new icons that makes me wonder if a lot of the features that are to be coming to this phone will change with the build prop editor and the right applications if that is the case then we stay tuned to the latest downloads of the stock apps that means we might get some of the features before launch of the pixel 3... For the call screening feature I just downloaded everything pertaining to telephony and Google services and I still don't have the feature, what did you use or what did you download in order for you to get call screening on your device
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
Call screen is due to roll out city by city so you might not get it anytime soon depending where you live
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] SageWilliams:
Question on this, is it based on GPS location or area code you think?

I would say google is smart enough to read your cell tower which I don't think is spoofable :p
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] i42o:
And to that I'd say I challenge you to a duel with all of my rare Pokemon caught using spoof GPS LOL,

So far I have

the color pop feature

Shush for silence

Focus feature

the AR stickers

live Google lens

super zoom...

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lywyn:
The apk is for Google's Camera app, it's not a modified version. Your instructions are to make the app think the phone is a Pixel 3 to trick into enabling the pixel 3 features.

Google said the features would be supported on older Pixels. They haven't blocked any features in the app. I'm using unrooted/unmodified Pixel 2 XL with the apk and I get ALL the new features.

What new feature do you get by faking the Pixel 3? Tricking your phone into thinking it has two front-facing cameras will make the app crash and hang.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] shindiggity:

https://www.androidpolice.com/2018/...nty-new-upcoming-camera-features/#Night_Sight

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/201...are-but-google-just-isnt-a-hardware-leader/4/

""Night Sight," an upcoming Pixel 3 feature"

There's a modded camera apk claiming to enable it. That said using the new Google apk it does a lot better night shots, so I think the mod is a placebo.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] shindiggity:
Ok yeah ok, your post above said you have all new festures so wanted to make sure ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikulec:
So you are telling us that you have the new features like Photobooth, Auto Frame rate in videos and Motion auto focus in the stock unmodded app without the Build.prop edit? I highly doubt that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] hatdrc:
Didn't someone post a link in the first couple pages for it from the OnePlus 6 forums? I installed it and have 2 camera apps. My original one and one that is the new version. Seems to be working fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikulec:
yes, but that is the modded app. [MENTION=2759613]lywyn[/MENTION] told that he has all features on stock camera app.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ygor Cortes:
What's the difference between this and the other modded one posted here?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] ShynizZ.:
Absolutely nothing.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Gregzi:
If you update the stock camera with stock apk from Pixel 3 (posted here) than you will get:

- better processing,

- focus retouching in portrait mode

- raw (need to be enabled in settings / advanced

- playground (I uninstall ArStickers.apk and installed Playground.apk from apkmirror)

- Lens (not live)

And you are not getting new video format

With the modded one from One+6 forums you get all of the above, but:

- lens are live

- you get the new video format

- you loose the portrait mode on back camera

- zoom in that port affects the picture quality

I am talking about stock Pixel 2XL, not spoofed as 3XL, unrooted!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ygor Cortes:
Here's an album with samples comparing the standard zoom that comes with the Pixel 2 with the Super Zoom that comes with the modded APK from the OnePlus 6 forum: https://photos.app.goo.gl/CKLwogWJaR4xCrvc8

Ps: the second picture is always the Super Zoom one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] wbgenetic:
Isn't the spoofed the best option currently?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lywyn:
Photobooth, little research online and cannot find details on how to access/use it. Can post a screenshot of it app setting/mode so I can check?

Auto frame rate. I only have the 30/60 options, not the auto, so guess not. Does this work if you change build.prop file? Reading some articles on it it's linked to the new visual core chip.

Motion auto focus, quick test and it does track the focus of an object.

Google have said old pixels will get features they can support and the latest apk does seem to confirm that. I suspect the stuff not enabled on my Pixel 2 XL are probably not supported by the hardware so disabled for a reason. Forcing them on via the build.prop does not mean they are working.

How stable is the apk with your build.prop file modified?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] dhorn92:
I feel like the functionality is better without spoofing. I don't take a ton of selfies so losing portrait mode on the rear camera is a big hit for me. Had similar issues to other with top shot and photobooth not working. Hopefully google will officially implement this stuff for the 2 and 2 XL here pretty soon.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Turbojugend:
Does protrait mode not work at all? I tried changing to the front camera first then back and it crashes. Anybody else have any luck?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikulec:
Photobooth - you should have a new icon when you switch to the "More" section in the app (there is also icon for Photo Sphere, Slow Motion, ...) and it works when you swicth to front faceng camera, click on the Photobooth icon and the camera takes pictures whenever you smile. So something for people who likes to take selfies.

Auto frame rate - in video you have another option besides 30 and 60fps and this should change the fps based on the scene you are filming (dont know if it works or not).

And these 2 features are available both with the build.prop edit and also with the modded app.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Horoscope:
I went thru the entire 13 pages discussion and not able to conclude which is the best version, can someone pls give a comparison for each version app

Pixel 2 spoofed version as Pixel 3

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] murphyjasonc:
I have tried using the Magisk module but not just editing the build.prop. The problem that I am having is when the spoof is enabled my phone will not switch carriers with Project Fi. When I try manual switching it will say switching but never does. As soon as I disable the module it will switch almost instantly. Did you just edit the build.prop or use the Magisk module and have you had this problem?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tu3218:
Yeah I'm confused as hell lol I just don't want to lose any current features that I have when my pixel 2 XL or any quality that they currently have. What is the best option having that in mind? I definitely don't want to lose portrait mode on the rear camera because I use that all the time.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] SageWilliams:
If the rear portrait is what you want. Keep Pixel 2 XL unspoofed, and use both the stock cam and the modded one from the OnePlus6. Stock cam has portrait rear, OnePlus6 has most everything else.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] joeyddr:
Am I the only one irked a bit that i cannot choose 60fps? it almost never switches to 60 on auto.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tu3218:
Thanks. I hate to be that guy but where can I find that apk? I don't usually follow here anymore, but came back for this pixel 3 camera features. I Google oneplus6 pixel 3 camera but not much turned up. And so you're saying there will be two camera applications?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] x4x3:
Look at post #23...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tu3218:
Thanks.. portrait mode fails with that apk. I then found the main thread and tried beta 1 from October 14. That apk just failed to install all together. So I'm not sure.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] SageWilliams:
Yeah, you'll need to use the stock app for the portrait mode, the app from post 23 will not. You should have 2 apps that you can move back and forth.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tu3218:
Okay yeah I got it up and running. Besides night mode and RAW, doesn't seem like any of the other new features are present. All I had was night mode present. No top shot(which may not be possible from what I've read), super zoom. I'll keep reading up on it but doesn't seem worth the extra duplicated app at this point. However, I know these devs will get it working 100%. Props to them for what they've done so far.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lywyn:
Not got photobooth in the more section. I wonder if that relies on the Visual Core AI to track peoples faces.

Auto frame rate is not there, found screenshot and you have a new option "A".

Google did update the Pixel Visual Core chip earlier this year so maybe we'll get these features when they update that. I guess they'd like a little time between launching the Pixel 3 and bringing the Pixel 2 up to speed. I don't record many videos but I like the sound of the photobooth app. Being able to get random shots at a party would be great
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] shadowline:
Personally with the stock pixel 3 camera app from apkmirror and the build.prop edits I have the photo booth feature working (change to front camera before going to photo booth, then it seems to work. Same with playground.) Lens, and the new portrait features.

A side effect of this was it also enabled the call screen feature for me as well. Already screened my first call!

Edit: also have the auto fps in video though I doubt it will do much
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] JazonX:
Can I know more?

- Does the button show up for all calls, or just unsaved numbers?

- Can you hear the other party while the call screening is going on?

- What was the first victim's feedback? :))
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
So with modded apk from oneplus 6 post, if you switch to frontcam first and then go to photo booth, it actually works !!!

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:41 AM ----------

So basically if someone can fix the portrait on the modded app and manages to enable top shot we get everything from Pixel 3 camera.now that I see photobooth working I doubt it that top shot has anything to do with the new visual core. It is all software based. I was thinking of upgrading my pixel 2 but now that I see all the new problems with pixel 3 ( bad audio recording, back getting scratched easily , not balanced speakers ) I have doubts and see no reason !
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Alvin Hadley:
Top Shot

Ok seems good but by editing my build.prop, features like Top Shot, Photobooth, and Night Sight will be work?

Google Photos Backup Quality

I'm on Pixel 2, and I noticed that after changing the build.prop, I don't get full quality Google Photos backup anymore. It's getting backed up in the compressed quality, as seen by the file size. Is anyone experiencing the same issue?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
Guys to make this more clear, you don't need to edit build prop to get the available camera features. Everything that works with build prop edit works with the modded apk . You will have 2 camera apps. One would be the stock camera app with everything working as usual and the new UI from Pixel 3 and also color pop and blur edit. And the other one with pixel 3 features but portrait failing.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sab3elbromba:
Question to the experts

Which is better to download the version in post #23 and have two camera apps available but the one for Pixel 3 has broken portrait mode on the rear camera

Or

Download the 6.1 apk from apk mirror and update the existing camera app and have working portrait mode on the rear camera ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] nadiros:
I don't think rear portrait mode works on either version

---------- Post added at 08:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 PM ----------

AFAIK the only advantage of downloading the OnePlus 6 version, is that it is installed as a separate app
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Notjustyet:
The rear camera Portrait works fine on my Pixel 2XL if you install the latest Arnova iteration (6.1 beta 2) using App Cloner. Lens doesn't work automatically, nor does the smile trigger. Slow Motion crashes the app.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
That's because that version is optimized for OnePlus 6 not pixel 2
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] davidstjohn1:
Where's the download for that would you be kind enough to share the link I'd like to try it
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
Download the one from post 23 to get pixel 3 features such as superzoom and live lens. Download the apk mirror version to get new camera interface with everything including portrait working as usual. I personally have installed both

When you uninstal updates it rolls back camera to factory version. Update camera from play store again to get the latest version that had shutter sound option
