Care to pm me about your time with a m20pro? Do you think it's really worth it or does the op6t hold its own against the giant??

But anyway, this op6t is my first Android after years of iOS and I must say just playing around on this forum and this thread have brought me absolute joyyy.

You just need to set gcam as default and turn on modify system settings in gcam permissions for double tap power to work. Works like a charm on my unrooted 6T
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cryptonian:
My iPhone x Is sitting in the drawer since I switched to the OnePlus 6t. First Android phone in 4 years and I do t regret it. I knew the only downfall would be the camera but gcam made me so much happier with my purchase. Can't wait for the final stable version.

for me with the locked tmobile variant i have tried the newest ones from the last few days briefly and still think the nov 8th from the op is most stable for me. but maybe I need to try them all again since others seem to think otherwise.I will have some free time tomorrow to dig into it and test more thoroughly and report back more accurately.

I've tried the the Nov 8th version and the most recent 1.2 and 1.3 versions on my locked TMobile 6t and the Nov 8th is more stable.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] ScOULaris:
I assume you did this through an adb command. If so, would you mind sharing what the command was?

Also, are you sure it sticks? The issue for most of us is that we can set the shortcut to GCam just fine, but it eventually reverts to launching the stock OP camera instead.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] mike freegan:
Still no portrait mode on the rear camera unless a face is detected.

That's a bug right? Or do the Pixels behave like that too?
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Double_a2013:
The Pixels have dual-pixel rear cameras that allow portraits on all objects, not just faces. It's believed to be specifically tied to that hardware, as even other devices with dual pixel cameras don't have that feature. This mod uses the Pixel front facing portrait mode (which only works on faces) on the front and rear shooters.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] mandroid89:
No adb command is necessary.

On your phone go to system settings --> Apps & Notifications --> See All Apps --> Select your camera app --> Modify System Settings is under Advanced --> Click and then turn on.

Also I installed the 1.2 beta and then installed the 1.3 beta without uninstalling 1.2 first and it has been very stable for me.

Playground feature not working

Dear Master Developers,

I have installed AR core and also iron man pack. And I am also able to see Playground option in camera app after installing the AR core. But when i click on Playground option, camera app returns on main camera option. Please please help, Request you to make it work.

Thanks in advance,

Tester and innovation enthusiast
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nosferatu.:
That's a "you" issue not a global issue. I have 1.3 installed. I just zoomed in, took a photo, zoomed back out, took a photo again. Came out find and shot quickly without issue.

If you're coming from another version make sure you FULLY uninstall (clear data/cache 1st then uninstall) before installing the newest version. :cool:

I'm on international version not TMO.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] ScOULaris:
Just changed it and cleared defaults for both camera apps. No dice. Double-tap power still launches stock camera app no matter what. Even setting the screen-off circle gesture to launch GCam doesn't work because it says it lacks permission to launch from the lockscreen.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] dermotti:
With the above changed, mine opens the Oneplus camera from the lockscreen.

But if i double tap after im logged in, it opens gcam.

weird
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] ScOULaris:
Yeah, that's how it is for everyone, regardless of the modify system settings toggle. When the phone is unlocked the double-tap shortcut always launches GCam, but when locked it might work for a little while before reverting back to the stock OP camera app. Only solution is for an Oxygen OS update to address it directly, I assume.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] nikola1970:
People calm down, don't request additional features before primary functionality, and primary functionality is to have stable picture mode, so HDR+ and enhanced HDR+ can work with full stability and with correct white balance in all conditions(this also apply to portrait modes and night sight), when that is correct you can request additional features such a AR ****, motion photos and other stupid stuff...
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] SalvH:
I'm on the latest 1.3, is 60fps video working? Even when I check the 60fps option on 1080p video it still records in 30fps. Is it just me?
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] ScOULaris:
Amen. Consistently correct white balance/exposure in pictures is paramount IMO. The Nov. 8 stable build is what I've been using, and the only downside that I've noticed so far is that shadows/lowlights aren't being lifted enough in most shots that I've taken, resulting in crushed darks that I have to adjust manually after the fact. If that eventually gets fixed it'll be perfect in my eyes.

1.1 vs 1.2Beta

Hi, for me, the 1.3beta was the worst version, I was in 1.1 stable one, but after some tests with 1.2beta I'll stay on this version, the best so far. Attached an example, used the same scenario and look how colors are more "real" than the 1.1 one.

[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] ScOULaris:
You will not get updates from the Play Store for apps that aren't listed on the Play Store, like this port.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] mike freegan:
I see, thanks. So I guess this is never going to be fixed? That's actually a bit of a bummer. I'm coming from a Xiaomi Mix 2s. There isn't much I liked about the software experience on that device, and the camera wasn't especially good. However, the portrait mode was exceptional and I'd often have people ask if I was using an SLR on my social media! I guess that is the one thing I'll miss about that device.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] jeanxx:
Anyone noticed the portrait mode creates an outline around the face? Some pictures its much more noticeable than others?!
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] hartleyshc:
No. It's not going to be fixed. It's always been this way since the app was first ported to the Nexus 6p. Even devices with dual pixels like the Nokia 7 do not support it.

The work around has been to enable Lens blur (the original portrait mode, where you take a pic and move the camera upward to give the bokeh effect) in the app, but I haven't seen that in a while, so I'm not sure if the feature can be brought over to the v6 ports. This isn't open source software. The devs are hacking away at this to make it work. They can't just change a flag to make it do portrait mode outside of how Google designed it. Right now they are using the way that the Google front facing camera does portrait mode. Through software and with faces only.

The stock camera app has the ability to take portrait photos of objects.

Hi everyone,

I'm new to forum and also not a photographer as such. Bought Op6t couple of days ago, and tried below Gcam port:

GCam_Pixel3Mod_1.1_build.6.1.013.apk

For me the stock Cam results seem a lot better and clearer than the Gcam port

1st one is stock image

Second from gcam port,
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] technotika:
I would lose the mind set that gcam is a total replacement for the stock camera app. Think of it as an embellishment to the phone's camera overall. For me front gcam portraits better than stock by miles, an option I otherwise wouldn't have had were it not for the hard work and development put into bringing Google phone features to the masses. Night mode shots can be better too. We have options, but not replacements. Op getting good with camera tech these days, has to be said.

[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nosferatu.:
For everyone stating issues, have you FULLY uninstalled prior versions? Go into settings, clear data, clear cache, then install new version and provide it all permissions including modify system settings.

OOS 9.0.6 no root stock international phone zero issue on 1.3 beta. Photo booth, photo sphere, zoom, etc. All works fine.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ne3M:
Having the same issues as you. Did a full data/cache clear, gave system mod permission including all other possible permissions on V1.3, it would say processing HDR when swiping back to review a photo, photos would not be saved.

V1.2 on the other hand works wonderful, photos are flawless, photobooth works flawless. Definitely some change with V1.3 that my phone is not happy with, Running Oxygen OS 9.0.6, Build A6013_41_191117, non-rooted.

I am on TMobile version with latest updates not rooted. Version 1.3 is working. I cleared cache before installing 1.3. After installing 1.3 I cleared cache again and restarted device. Now 1.3 works better. Photobooth seems ok. Also. Cleared cache on stock camera. Double clicked power button while unlocked and it asked me which camera I wanted as default. I of course selected Gcam. Now double tap power button brings up Gcam but only if device is unlocked. If I do it from the lock screen I still get the stock camera. Hope this helps.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] coolguy:
How is that possible? I am on 9.0.6, bought from OnePlus site and slowmo, photo booth doesn't work on 1.3 beta. As soon as you open those modes the app crashes right away.

I did clear cache, storage, uninstall, install 1.3 , clear cache, storage, modify perm to allow system changes , reboot. Open the 1.3 app and try slowmo, it's crashes.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] RubenMMS2:
Good morning,

those who have tried the GCam, does it take fast photos or sometimes it takes 1-2sec. to take the pic?

This is the only thing I want to know before buying this amazing phone. I promise I have seen all the videos of 6T with the Gcam, but nobody shoes when the photos are taken with the phone,,, only the comparisons of the photos from the 6T with Gcam vs Stock.

If someone could tell me that I can make them fast, even if bursts can be done (both in HDR + mode), I'll buy it for sure.

I come from the S7 Edge that from time to time when making the photo, it takes 1-2sec to take the pic and of course with 2 children I have its a nightmare sometimes

Thank you very much in advance.

Ruben
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nosferatu.:

[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] ScOULaris:
Taking pictures with GCam on the 6T is very quick with hardly any shutter lag. You'll only run into a tiny amount if you enable HDR+ enhanced, but that's by design since it's taking more exposures before processing the final image.

Don't know if anyone has figured this out yet. But to get double push power to launch gcam all you have to do is disable OnePlus cam and gallery. Then when you double tap power, it will pull up a list that you can choose from and set as default. Just choose gcam. Voila
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] sssarg:
Is the 1.2beta supposed to show up as 1.1 in the app info? I thought I was going mad after going from 1.1 to 1.2beta and the version being the same, even after clearing cache/storage, uninstalling 1.1 and rebooting.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] jackennils:

Have no other cam ports installed

Go to OP

Download 1.2 camera

Install 1.2 camera

Go back to home

Open app drawer

Long press One Plus Camera

Tap app info

Tap Disable

Go back to home

Open app drawer

Long press on One Plus Gallery

Tap app info

Tap disable

This may be the difference in why I can do it:

Go back to home

Open app drawer

Long press 1.2 camera

Tap app info

Tap Modify System Settings

Tap it on

Go back

Go to home

Turn screen off

Double tap power

Select 1.2 Camera
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] SubwayJrd:
Followed this exactly and no joy. Do you have a screen lock set? I'm wondering if that is perhaps interfering with me.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] hartleyshc:
That was going to be my question, is your screen actually locked? Are you using smart lock? Do you have a time out where the screen only locks after being off for X minutes?
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] idkwhothatis123:
Yeah. Fingerprint, pin, and face unlock.

You do have the double tap power to launch camera setting enabled, right?

Also, try going into default apps and setting the camera first. Mine let me do it in the flow. Maybe you need to set it before for some reason.

I'm also using the global version, though stock and unrooted
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] SubwayJrd:
I also have fingerprint and pin, and the double tap power to launch camera enabled. If I have OnePlus Camera disabled, it never gives me the selection to choose a camera app for the shortcut from screen off or screen on. With OnePlus Camera enabled I can set a default when using the shortcut from screen on, and I get this fun state where the shortcut launched GCam from Screen On, and OnePlus Cam from screen off.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] idkwhothatis123:
So damn weird. Try going into the 1.2 app settings and clear the cache and data. Then reboot your phone. Relaunch app and hit okay through the 4 prompts. Then try the double tap with the screen off.
[OnePlus 6T  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nosferatu.:
As for launching the application with the double tap option...

I had it working (intermittently) with nothing disabled. Double tap, pick GCam as default, and voila it worked. It would not persist on a reboot though. It seems I had to manually launch the GCam at least once after a reboot for it to launch with the double-tap of the power button or it would launch the stock camera instead. However, even after doing that, it was intermittent. as to which camera the software wanted to launch.

As others stated, I disabled the stock camera and gallery but that totally nuked the double press to wake. I still use the stock camera for 4K 60 FPS video so that wasn't going to work long-term for me but was worth a try.

I just made a "V" with screen off as the trigger to launch GCam. That works like a charm.

EDIT: This is with version 1.2. Everyone complained 1.3 didn't work (even tho it did for me) but I figured I'll stick with the version everyone else is tinkering with. :)
