Good work, I wonder if someone could do a magisk module to get the same affect so that you would have to mess with the build.prop file
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] joedajoester:
What is the downside to editing your build.prop does safety net fail?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ygor Cortes:
Does Top Shot work?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] hatdrc:
I don't think so. The only down side is that all your apps will think you have a Pixel 3 XL but I don't think that would really cause a problem. I wonder what we would need to update in order to get things like the call screener to work.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] armando_rod:
Nothing new, you get most of this just installing the app, minus the HEIC codec
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] showlyshah:
Have u tried it bro? I did.. and there are lots , which are missing. Either u haven't checked whats missing or u haven't checked whats gained.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] BabelHuber:
Cool! ?

The new features seem to be there, but:

- Photo Box doesn't take a picture when I smile. Does it only work with multiple people?

- How can I enable top shot? Or does it turn on automatically?

Edit: Photo Box only seems to work when I switch to the selfie camera first and then activate it. When I activate it as long as the back camera is selected, it doesn't work. May be coincidence, though
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
I think top shot has replaced the burst mode. So you just keep pressing on shutter button.

Is Super Zoom Working ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] BabelHuber:
I see no difference between top shot and burst mode yet, have to try again when I meet some people...

Super zoom seems to work, see screenshots ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
This is great, what about Focus Tracking ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] showlyshah:
Focus tracking works. H.265 works.... Guys.. just keep in mind that ... Some features need dual front cam.. so some of those might not work in our devices..
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] jordi.id96:
Google lens in real time works, no need to select it, works directly in the viewfinder.

The new ar stickers (playground) still don't work.

Automatic frame rate when recording video works
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] comediiian:
Portrait mode closes cam if u switch to rear cam or choosing portrait mode on rear cam.

If u switch to front cam and using portrait, it works, but if u switch to rear cam again, it closes.

Super zoom is to use like normal zoom, yes?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] G_jo:
Is there any chance to get a working Gcam mod on Pixel 2 XL with all features unlocked without rooting the device?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ygor Cortes:
Top Shot should work automatically as you tap the shutter button if it detects movement.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] comediiian:
GCam mod for pixel 2?

U still have a GCam, with all features ..
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] chillmeow:
The link is gone. Can anyone supply the apk?

Thank you!

I've got the modded apk from Oneplus 6 forum but I can't seem to get Lens working. How can I get that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikulec:
Its not working and it has been mentioned in this thread couple of times.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] PsychOlli:
Do you think it is possible to make a magisk Module that spoofes the Pixel 3xl lines only for the settings app? Because spoofing for the whole system crashes the Back portrait mode :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] ranasrule:
is this working on Oreo ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] wbgenetic:
Sorry running Pie here. But the apk does not require root and does not replace the stock app so I would say you give it a shot and let us know ;)

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

I currently use :

- Apk from P3 replacing my P2 stock camera app (no root required). This is expected to be rolled out to our phones in a matter of a day/week or so so should be old news soon.

- modded APK from Cstark27 *sorry if I have the username wrong*. This brings Night Mode and can be installed without root and does not replace the stock apk. Does not have lens but I personally do not use it.

>> There is an option to spoof the device making it look like P3 so that all functions appear - but portrait is broken which is a deal breaker at this point in time. Would be the best option imho though.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sab3elbromba:
That's just amazing!

Is this working on the OP6 version in post #23 ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] koahhe:
Installed the Pixel 3 camera posted on Android Authority. Night is quite amazing. See the pictures I attached.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Spacemonkie4207:
Give it a shot but on apkmirror it says Android 9
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] onesolo:
Why do u ask that here?? you've a thread for that on your phone's xda threads...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] deepakdavidster@gmail.com:
Oh my god this is really great, night mode.

I was little skeptical about this night mode before but now I am convinced, pixel camera software is best in class and no one can beat as of now. Installed on pixel 2 xl

See the pics
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Balino:
I was really scheptical about that feature, when I tried it I was like wtf is happening here, where's this light coming from eheh
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] rmagruder:
This Night Sight version overwrote the previous mod version that had Super Res Zoom enabled. Does this one also keep Super Res Zoom enabled or did I lose it when it overwrote the mod camera
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] wbgenetic:
I seem to think that this version with the Night Mode has a rather inferior Super Res Zoom image ... compared to simple zoom on the stock PIxel 2XL camera ...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Edek7363:
Night Sight is incredible...

"Stock Camera"

"Night Sight"
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] rmagruder:
So now we just need a modded 6.1 camera that has Super Res Zoom, Motion Auto Tracking, Working Rear Portrait mode, and Night Sight. We figure out how to put that in one APK and Pixel 2 users everywhere will weep with delight!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] wbgenetic:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ariac Konrel:
Probably not without something like Xposed.

opened the properties of the pictures on the phone with my computer via usb c cable, and opened the photos on google photos and they were the exact same size

---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

I don't even know where this folder is supposed to be, can you tell me where yours is? Yes cleared everything and still exactly the same, can't see any raw files created and error when trying to view the folder in settings.

Never mind thanks anyway, a newer version has fixed the issue, I can now see that folder and photos.

For anyone else curious on the raw location, it is not under the dcim folder but you can find it as a subfolder under /sdcard/Pictures
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sab3elbromba:
LoL I'm talking about the Pixel version from the OP6 forum that is posted in this thread post #23, go check the post please.

Somehow I got colorpop and depth adjustment setting on my stock app ?

Finally google release Camera app update in Play Sotre for Pixel 2 XL. I like it and it works for the moment.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] quera:
Does "lens" mode actually do something for you? Here it just goes to normal camera mode.

This is black magic, completely dark field a mile from anything... Looks like daylight (although blurry). If something sneaks up in the woods on me I know what I'll be checking with! View attachment 4626374
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] AndroidState:
Did you change Build.prop for this?

If not, maybe you can upload the apk for the rest of us?

Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] shalom06:
Unfortunately the feature is location dependent
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] AndroidState:
Um, thanks for the info, but what does it have to do with my question? I'm in the U.S. and even if not I already saw Canadians with this. It might be that your phone is set on English (U.S.) which is like most of Assistant features.

THIS IS NOT DUPLEX for those wondering; It's based on it. Duplex is in NY and LA and is made to make reservations.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] rmagruder:
If it isn't possible to get all the features in ONE camera apk, is it possible to get one with Night Sight and the other with Super Res Zoom and Motion Focus working, as I had before the Night Sight modded version overwrote it?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] joeyddr:
The package name has to be different, I tried and it won't install.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] rmagruder:
Honestly, I'd settle for getting back to that modded version that had Motion Focus and Super Res Zoom working on my Pixel 2 XL. Don't get me wrong, Night Sight is amazeballs, but I absolutely LOVE the other two features. Problem is, if I go back and try to install the modded on that had MF and SRZ, it says it wants to install as an update, and then says "Update not installed". If I REMOVE CameraP3 and then try again - same thing. I literally can find NO way to get back to that modded version of the camera that had MF and SRZ. I could live with portrait rear facing breaking and just use the stock camera for that... Anyone have any ideas?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] twistedh:
Use this version of App cloner to install the app you want, you can give it a different name so it'll install.

You need to restrict the apps access to data (either switch to airplane mode or use a vpn to restrict its Internet access) otherwise the app will only work if you update to the latest version (which suddenly does not let you clone Google apps).

Give it a try.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] joeyddr:
even with airplane mode it still knows its not the latest....

nm you have to install it in airplane mode.... then it works.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] shalom06:
The feature is rolling out only in specific cities and i am actually in Canada now and haven't heard of anyone getting this feature yet. i may be mistaken but i assume it will be a geographic roll out.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] wbgenetic:
What is the apk that u used for the Mf and SRZ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
I used version 1.8 of app cloner (, from apk mirror ) and was able to clone the night mode version and installed it separately from the modded version with lens and other stuff. I have 3 camera apps now !!!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] AndroidState:
No, I think your'e mixed up. Can you give me a source for Call Screening to be in specific cities?

What I do know is Duplex is in select cities, not call screening.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Briankbl:
Correct. Call screening comes built-in for all Pixel 3 phones right out of the box. There's no geographic availability lock on it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Edek7363:
Could someone can give me link to Google Camera version with Super Res Zoom for Pixel 2?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolsid8:
Hey,

Just a tip for others. If you enable the pixel 3 magisk spoof, we also get focus controls on night mode although we lose portrait on back camera.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] AndroidState:
Which Magisk mod is that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] krolla03:
Bro. Your signature is way to big.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bush911:

P3v4_GoogleCamera_6.1.013.apk

For all Pixel:

-Enable Night Sight

-Enable manual focus button in Night

-Add HDR+ Config selection

Tested only on Pixel 2:

-Enable focus tracking

-Enable Photobooth

-Video FPS options (Auto/30/60)

-Google Lens Suggestions in Viewfinder

-H265/HEVC toggle

-Super Zoom (maybe??)

-"New" HDR+ Enhanced (colors may differ in extreme tinted light conditions, test it out; this is how the Pixel 3 behaves see https://www.teknofilo.com/analisis-pixel-3-xl/4/)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] PsychOlli:
This is awesome, Superzoom Seems to work for me. Can someone explain me how google lens in Viewfinder works?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolsid8:
Great work. Most of the stuff works perfectly.

Hdr+ enhanced doesn't seem to work on my p2xl. Tried few shots in tinted light. They came out even worse and overexposed. Superzoom works, Photobooth works. Have not tried other features yet. Also, what is the best mode HDR option for pixel, should i set it to auto or use something else ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
The auto will be the most optimized setting for your device but feel free to try the "Hardware" ones because those should be the PVC (but they don't seem the same as my previous tests so maybe the PVC isn't truly activated yet with those configs). 2018 ZslR seemed faster but I haven't tested extensively. I may add a toggle in the future so people can disable the "new" HDR+ Enhanced.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] farovitus:
Thanks for the update!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] wbgenetic:
Cleared cache and got focus track to work!!

Also is it meant to be like that : when I snap a photo and then click on the thumbnail I go to the camera gallery and not to the photo only?

BTW kudos for the work!

Top shot remains imho ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yasharkhan:
How to get Google lens to work? I'm on the latest p3v4 update
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolsid8:
The one thing that all the reviews mention is better edge detection and natural face colors on the new Pixel 3 for portrait photos. I believe it has to use the new PVC otherwise it would have been possible with pixel 2 using any other modded apk. But I guess you have added supported to run HDR using PVC, will that be able to emulate some of the new features ? Can other guys test some shots and report here (PVC/Non-PVC portrait shots).

Also, slightly off-topic, I believe you have a pixel 3. Will it be possible to port call screening the same way as you have ported the camera because pixel 3 users have it enabled and some pixel 2 users emulating pixel 3 using buildprop method are getting it too .
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] shelt:
MANY thanks for this! Everything in the P3 camera seems to be working perfectly on my 2XL (sans the missing physical WA selfie lens...). I can confirm the improved white balance is working well in "HDR+ enhanced" mode - it's very noticeable. Night Shot, tracking, and Super Res Zoom are all working perfectly too. I was using 3 google camera apps -- one of yours with night shot; one with super-res-zoom and tracking, then stock. This seems to fully replace stock without any compromises.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] legents:
Call Screening and Dark mode

Sorry to hijack the topic:

I have Dark mode and Call Screening enabled and working on my Pixel2XL using Google Phone app version 25 . I just need to confirm two lines on my config.

Note: I am not in the US and my phone is rooted.

Please PM me if you are interested and help confirm the config.

P3v5_GoogleCamera_6.1.013.apk

-Add workaround for Pixel 1 rear Portrait (only works on human faces)

Previous changelog:

For all Pixel:

-Enable Night Sight

-Enable manual focus button in Night

-Add HDR+ Config selection

Tested only on Pixel 2:

-Enable focus tracking

-Enable Photobooth

-Video FPS options (Auto/30/60)

-Google Lens Suggestions in Viewfinder

-H265/HEVC toggle

-Super Zoom (maybe??)

-"New" HDR+ Enhanced (colors may differ in extreme tinted light conditions, test it out; this is how the Pixel 3 behaves see https://www.teknofilo.com/analisis-pixel-3-xl/4/)

Edit: the Hardware ZSL HDR+ Config is the Pixel Visual Core. I am not at a PC right now for proper logs but based on the processing time I've witnessed and the final image compared to HDR+ Off, it appears to be working correctly, with both 2017 and 2018 Hardware configs, on my Pixel 2. HDR+ Enhanced does not act the same so I'm not sure about that yet.

Place a business card in the viewfinder and see what pops up. I am not sure what all it works on.

I had this happen when I set a custom DPI.

Known issue. Wait a few seconds before clicking the thumbnail if you don't want that to happen (wait for processing to finish).

The separate button for Lens is not available. I can enable the button but it doesn't work...I think Google is blocking it with renamed APK's or something.

I have not tested Portrait Mode extensively with the modded APK but feel free to try. You'll need a lot of distance behind the subject to see the difference I think. I did force some stuff related to Portrait/depth but I do not know if it's working. I returned the Pixel 3; don't know about call screening but don't plan to look into it.

See above.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] new_disaster:
Now works...

Can u please disable zoom on portrait mode?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolsid8:
PM Sent. I tried with Pixel CallScreen config in the phenotype flags file but it was no go. Got dark mode to work though.

Can you also share your play services version ?

how did you get dark mode to work? I changed that value to true and still wont go.

I have a question regarding the visual core does this app use the visual core I know that it saves a lot on battery when it does use the visual core and it seems just as fast as the stock app?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
Added this note to my post above:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] davidstjohn1:
So it seems the HDR processing that we are getting it just like the pixel 3 that's great!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] cstark27:
Pixel 2 with this latest version versus the Pixel 3 stock shows a heavier background blur (more "creamy") on the P3 than that of the P2. I will investigate the "learned depth" Portrait more to see if it can be enabled.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] davidstjohn1:
I wonder if the edge detection is just a hardware upgrade on the camera sensor on the pixel 3.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
So if we change from Auto to hardware zsl it actually makes a difference in quality ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] raghus.id:
Yes [MENTION=2703788]cstark25[/MENTION], it would be great if you can provide toggle for zoom in portrait mode.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] pablomentabo:
"-Enable focus tracking"

I know you said this was only tested on the Pixel 2 but on the Pixel 1 it'll also focus track but only within night sight mode. Do you think there's a way to get it working in the default Camera viewfinder? Big thanks for porting what you have already though :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Briankbl:
Question...

So I haven't installed anything over my stock camera on the Pixel 3 XL. Only been installing this P3 modded camera. Funny thing is, the mods activate in my stock camera, too (except for night sight, that is still exclusive to the modded camera). However, I've lost Top Shot on the stock camera. Yes, motion is turned to on, not auto. I uninstalled the stock camera updates, reinstalled the updates, bit I can't get Top Shot back. The only option I get is to "view all". It doesn't auto select the two best shots anymore.

Anyone know how to get this back?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] armando_rod:
Pixel 1: focus tracking is working in Night mode but not in normal camera mode, the toast for "experimental config" is appearing even if auto is selected, also it doesnt change the text it always says "Pixel 2016" config no matter what you select.

What config would be the best for Pixel 1 tho, I guess that hardware would be pointless but what about the P3 config on the P1?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] lordsinasina:
Just compared Auto with pixel 2018 hardware zsl, the hardware zsl seems to produce a darker photo which is not that great.

Thank you very much for the mod. Focus has some problems in Night Sight on pixel 1. It does "track" but not "focus"
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tauio111:
The initial apk with the Night mode enabled did not use the Photos app when you clicked on the thumbnail, but the builtin photo viewer instead. I think it was better that way. Could this option be exposed as a flag?

Focus is working on Video.
