[Lenovo P2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alirazaagha:
Dear friends,

November has been a very productive month for P2 owners with all sorts of Pie ROMs roaming around. But what everyone wants is a stable ROM with a working port of GCam 6.1 because it has got the magical "Night Sight" feature which actually does magic in low light.

Bugs:

Face retouching isn't working even in Night Sight unless you select "test key Pixel2017 or 2016" from "Mask". However, it will disable the Portrait mode

SlowMo not working. However, it never works for me with GCam so try it yourself.

Google Camera 7 may only work with Android 9 and above. Please, test yourself if you are on Android 8 and report in the thread.

Google Camera 7 for Android 10

PMGC_7.0.009_PopugVersion_V11_1

Front camera greenish photos under dim light can be corrected by doing few things:

1. Enable HDR+ enhanced from drop down menu

2. Go into advanced settings and set time for front camera "1/5s" in ISO/ Exposure Time HDR+ or ISO 100. 1/5 captures photos faster though.

3. Reduce HDR+ frames to 5-10. Whenever you want to capture night shots without flash then enable HDR+ enhanced.

Configuration file

Video Capture Issues:

GCam is bad at capturing videos with P2.

Hence, install Open Camera, select 30 fps from video setting of the app then select audio source as default or optimised for voice recognition.

Keep resolution at 1080p for capturing, otherwise app will force close.

Adjust exposure while capturing videos at will.

This solution would work on Android 10 as well and it will record audio too.

Don't forget to test capture video to understand how it works.

Note: Config files are given as attachments.

What works:

Portrait, Night Sight, Face Retouching, AR Stickers, Playground, Photobooth, Panorama, RAW image, Video capture, Photo sphere, Lens, Motion Capture, Super Res-Zoom (Full zoom with HDR+ enabled), SlowMo (ROM dependent), Lens Blur
