Ok. Being on the Nokia 7 Plus forum I thought it was a dedicated version like for the backrider.

Thanks
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Noneofthem:
I used exactly this version and settings with instructions. Unfortunately after some photos, I get a weird permanent notification called "Camera" with a non progressing progress bar. Did you experience the same?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Danilo Pantelić:
Nope, that's possible if you take a lot of pictures in short time.

Only using photo section of gcam

PHOTOS (daylight/portrait/nightsight) in Google Camera

VIDEO and slow-motion (very very rarely) in Nokia Camera

For Nokia 7 plus

I installed this version which adds the use of the x2 optical zoom of the nokia 7 plus (To be activated in the settings of GCam).

So far no problem.

[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Linux-Freak:
Thank you for sharing this. Its working wonderfully on my Nokia 7 Plus. Now looks like its working very near to how back.riders version was running on android 9.????
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Danilo Pantelić:
We will see...

Second telephoto lens for 2x optical zoom working with this gcam port!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Linux-Freak:
Where us this option. I enable Secondary Lens in Auxiliary camera setup. But did not gind any icon for 2X zoom. Can you help please?. Thanks in advance.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] christ59520:
Thanks for the info, I'll install it.

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 AM ----------

I had to quit and relaunch the application.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Pitada72:
You are right. It's a very good version.

I have the feeling that even slow motion it's a little bit not so lagged. Hope Nikita improve this...

I don't know how to use the hal configs stream... Maybe the problem is in this...

Hello.

I have a Nokia 7 plus.

I did nothing other than activate 1x and 2x zoom.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Linux-Freak:
Yep, after reading your post I too tried keeping 1x and 2x zoom and voila I got 1X & 2X icons. I think the mistake I was making was enabling only second lens for 2x and not enabling the first lens for 1x. Due to which I was not getting those icons.

Thanks for that.?

Finally! Thank you!

The app takes photos but doesn't save them on my Nokia 7 plus. Has anyone faced the same problem?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] jaskiratsingh:
Yes it happens time to time. Only restart helps. I reckon this is a known issue
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
SD 660 is capable of is capable of 4K @ 30FPS, 1080P @ 120FPS and 720P @ 240FPS.

Nokia has locked it down to

4K @ 30FPS @ 42Mbps,

1080P @ 30FPS @ 20 Mbps and

720P @ 30FPS @ 20Mbps.

Slo-mo 1080P is written in file as 30FPS @ 20Mbps.

All 3rd party camera apps have only access to these frame rates.

I am not a developer but is there any way to increase the bit-rate and frame-rate of the video ? (Options for different bit-rates)

Also can slo mo video be written in file in their recorded actual framerate ? like 120fps ?

Like I mentioned before slo-mo 1080P is written in file as 30FPS at 20Mbps.

3rd party apps like opencamera already provide that. But at present, I have multiple camera apps, each serving a different function. The idea is to reduce clutter and bring almost everything into one app.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Maddymiru:
But images with the noise are also more detailed
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] treboR2Robert:
Can you switch to the telephoto lens in this version of gcam ?

Gcam photos at 2x optical zoom would be cool
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] boringasblue:
which do you think is better? the version with libs or without?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Suku1509:
Without lib
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Born2rein@gmail.com:
Backridder vs Arnova
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] nemo07:
Because its with the same lib .. and noise is not good for taking perfect photos anyway .

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 PM ----------

Можно бы и без библиотек, сток от Гугл хороший, мне нравится, но если бы чуть резкости, детализации добавить. Немного мылит по сравнению с v2s...

This tread is for talking about backrider version and the development. You have another tread for general gcam and for comparing. Stop spaming with this things.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Linux-Freak:
I feel the subject of this thread should be changed to "[GCam-back.rider version] Nokia 7 Plus" so that people who don't understand are made aware.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
Thanks for the suggestion. I just changed the title to, as you said, avoid confusion over the other thread for general GCam port discussions. Please note that I am not against sharing of other stuff here, but if anyone's gonna share those kind of information, at least provide as much detail possible like what makes this thing better than the other, etc. I already have a lot of stuff to think about right now, so the least y'all can do is give useful and helpful details. Also, this may sound off topic, but I hope you all understand that I only do coding in my free time because I need more of that time for personal stuff. I'm even surprised I went back to this project when I said earlier that I won't. Anyway, I'll see what I can do with the photo quality in the future. Thank you so much to everyone for sharing their feedback, donations, and comments. Very much appreciated <3
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippokra:
I have a useful suggestion about the launcher shortcut, as I believe.

For including the Google lens option instead of something else. I think that would be more useful to have a fast access to the lens instead of portrait or photobooth.

It's a tool for turists and for many other interests.

It needs 3 moves to have an access to lens option as it is now by Google. Difficult to use it when you need it.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] SirGarmaples:
Why not just use the Lens shortcut in the app drawer? Drag it onto your home screen like you would for any app and you can instantly launch Lens with it.

Also, forgive me for using Battery Saver at 78%, haha.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippokra:
Because as a tourist or any else needs to use both of camera app and lens or other shortcut options in priority as a fast mode.

The screenshot you watched, is from the recent apps page of Microsoft luncher. Not shortcuts by myself.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] SirGarmaples:
Oh, ok. Then yeah, it would be good to have a Lens shortcut in the Camera app itself in that case.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
Creating shortcuts to in-app features is possible, but with Google Lens, which is actually a separate app, I'm not sure if that's possible (or easy, in case it is possible). Other than the homescreen shortcut you can also launch Google Lens: (1) with Google Assistant via long-pressing the home button (see attached screenshot) or; (2) by tap-and-holding the camera viewfinder, where after a short vibration, Google Lens will launch.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippokra:
Yep, sure. I know there instructions. But Google assistant is not working at all languages (Greek in my case) and I suggested this as a useful option if could be happening. I explained the reasons to be an option like this at the shortcut menu of the application.

The problem is if can be that from a separate but including application - in the main menu of the main app of the camera that we talking now.

The main uses of the shortcut menu could be: the night shot, the selfie, the video, the lens and the slow motion video as I think.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
EDIT: refer to next post. The inconsistent internet speed just then is pretty annoying.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
Oh I see. Well I tried a few workarounds to make a shortcut for Google Lens, but they all crash. And perhaps it is a good idea to swap Photobooth shortcut with Slow Motion. Thanks for the suggestions :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippokra:
I think that the shortcut launcher of the Lens must drive in order the shortcut of Lens at the menu of camera and not straight to the Lens app. If it crashing by this way, leave it and you'll find it on the way for something else at the future. Not need to spend more time.

Tnx for your time anyway and that you agree with my suggestions[emoji4]
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
Thanks a lot to those who shared their tests, photo samples/comparisons, and general feedback. And since the release of test2.4_lib, I've only seen comments on one lib: the Xtrme v2s. I've done lib tests myself, and indeed this seems to be the best of the bunch. So to make things simple, I would only be sharing one version with Xtrme v2s as the secondary lib.

Update: I made a last minute decision to add options for JPEG quality.

GCam_6.1.021_N7P_test2.5

Changes vs. test2.4a :

-

Noise reduction enhancements

: notable in HDR+ Enhanced and Night Sight; see attached (cropped) photo comparisons between test2.4 (left) vs. test2.5 (right).

-

Returned the "Use custom lib" toggle

: in case you want to use Xtrme v2s custom lib.

-

Replaced Photobooth shortcut with Slow Motion

: I believe this is a more useful shortcut. Still requires launchers supporting 5+ shortcuts like Nova+Sesame and Microsoft Launcher.

-

Added "Set JPEG quality" options

: allows you to choose between 95%, 97% (default), and 100% for the final JPEG quality. A few notes here.

-

Lens Blur resolution defaults to 12 MP

NOTE: CLEAR DATA or CLEAN INSTALL is recommended for this version. And if double-tap-to-zoom doesn't work for you, enable it manually in Gestures -> Double-tap action -> Zoom.

Known issues:

- Tap-to-focus in video mode breaks autofocus; workaround is switching to other modes and back.

- Manual white balance in camera mode doesn't work, but it works in other modes; in Portrait Mode and on the front camera, it works with tap-to-focus.

- Some reports mention lagging of Google Photos. In my case, clearing Photos app cache did the trick, and so far it's working fine.

Thanks!!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] nemo07:
See the photo in attachment and read back.rider555 comment well
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
I get what you mean. This JPEG quality also seems to be a popular demand ever since I mentioned it in a previous version. With that, I've just updated the app itself and added the options to choose JPEG quality (I find it too cumbersome to make another version release just for this feature so I just updated this version while it's still a bit early haha). And if you'll notice, I only added 3 options: 95%, 97%, and 100%. Why only 3? Because I really don't see the reason why anyone would go lower than that. Google Camera's default, I believe, is 95% so I guess no one would consider setting it lower than that. The fact that it's the assigned default value by Google implies that it's a good balance between quality and file size. I set this port's default to 97% because, as I've mentioned before, it's kind of an average between 95% and max 100%.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
Yeah, saw your comment. Thanks, btw. These were also the model parameters I saw in other ports that produced good photos. I've already embedded the model parameters in the code so you don't have to change any setting for that.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tomar777:
Just came back from a road trip where i made an extended test of the 2.4 Xtreme lib , only to see that back.rider has a new version ready lol!

The noise in 2.4 + Xtreme is not much and and appears only in dark/blue areas and not always, so if you made a better noise reduction i think this will be it!

Here some unedited photo samples from the 2.4, HDR+, Pixel AWB on, Xtreme lib

Thanks for the improvements mate, this port is getting better and better, we are lucky to have you here!
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] carlosthwaites:
Love V2.5! Pixel 3 AWB, enabled xtrme lib, jpeg size to 100% and HDR+ enhanced of course
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tomar777:
Confirming that 5th shortcut works on Smart launcher 5

Noise reduction with Xtreme lib seems to be fine in HDR mode. (tested with mid light conditions indoors where previous version had much noise)

On night mode, thing is that if there are lights pointing to the camera, noise still is more with Xtreme than with stock lib.

So for difficult scenes with nightmode, consider turning Xtreme lib off.

Attachments 1) Night sight Stock 2) Nightsight xtreme

See the noise around the Street lamp like a fog.

I remember in some 5.x ports there was a GCam setting (on/off) about exposure compensation. Enabling that killed the flare around lights.

I wonder if there is something like that in ver 6 that can be used. Further testing to come.

One more thing , pic 3 was taken with HDR auto and set to medium. people were moving but still i got a good pic

[MENTION=1511643]backri[/MENTION]dder I want to say thank you for effort and set out time for N7p Gcam mod for us the users, you have done greatly here and also seeing others Dev making references of you supporting them is a huge recognition from N7P Dev.

Please I want understand and know if N7p back camera the two Lens is actually working with Gcam mod of yours.

Please I am not comparing here rather seeking idea of understanding I saw that Arnova has implemented some new features such as Multicamera switching to use the ID1, ID2 and ID3 whereby the both 2Lens back camera works.

It is necessary in our N7p.

I hope you understand what am trying to explain here.

I would love to attached pictures but I think there maybe no need.

Once again i celebrate you. Thanks very much for the present update and future updates to come
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippokra:

[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] alessa:
Hello.

Why not add the flash to night mode? I find this works very useful.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
The fact that Camera2 API does not report the 2nd lens in the first place means it's locked, and that only the stock Nokia camera can tap into it; same with the 16 MP capability for the front camera. I believe you can unlock these capabilities through root, but I have no plans to root my phone to test that. I have tested the multi-camera ports before and they crash when forced to switch to a secondary lens; I'm guessing the app can't find this secondary lens because, as I said, it's locked.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
I know it's a great feature, but it's a bit complicated on my part, tbh. As I mentioned here, the Night Sight flash only works with the 8.1 fix enabled. While the code for NS flash is quite simple, the 8.1 fix is quite complicated since its specific codes are spread throughout the application; one wrong or missing adjustment, and it messes up a lot of features. I can only deal with a few minor features at a time, and this one here's on the complicated side that I would need a lot of time to work on. I hope you understand.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] NahuelMS:
Thank you very very much! With that 3 settings for me is enough, i don't see no reason to use less that 95% neither!!

Thanks again!

Me encanta esta versión yo tengo un Xiaomi mi A1 y va genial porfi funciona el enfoque automático en 12 MP aunque sea solo en retrato, para lo demás hay que bajarle a 9 mp, la cámara frontal en HDR sigue en verde y la cámara lenta no va pero es un avance las fotos en retrato salen muy muy bien muchas gracias

To all those owning a non-Nokia 7 plus, thank you for stopping by and trying this port. Let me just quote what was posted in the front page, in case you missed it:

Although it's fine if you tell us that it works on your device, even if you encounter bugs. After all, feedback is feedback. Requests are a different story, however. ;)
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] mickey36736:
I tested this gcam on my zenfone 5z and it works quite well. But sometimes the shutter button doesn't work with hdr+ enhance

The focus tracking heat up the phone a lot when focus which is weird because it doesn't happen when I try arnova 1.4.0

Zoom doesn't work properly

When I zoom in (like 2x) there is a drop in megapixels count to 4.5 MP from 12.2 MP. Plz fix this in next update ?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
Thanks for the notice. This seems to happen when you use pinch-to-zoom and/or scrubbing the zoom handle beyond the 50% zoom. I get inconsistent replications of this bug, though. I'll get back to this soon. In the meantime, a workaround is to use the +/- button adjustments for the zoom-- it always produces 12.2 MP.
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] aniket4march:
Oo..

Thanks for the temporary fix ?
[Nokia 7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] back.rider555:
I read one post in the Nokia 7 Plus - Philippines Facebook group asking about setting a different default gallery app when reviewing photos. So here's an attempt to give you the option to change the default gallery app.

GCam_6.1.021_N7P_test2.6

Changes vs. test2.5 :

-

Added "Change default gallery"

: you can now change default gallery between the Classic Photo Viewer, Google Photos, and other gallery app of your choice (see screenshot 1)

If you select the "Other gallery app" option for the first time, when you tap the recent photo in the viewfinder you will be greeted with the list of gallery apps supporting the image review feature (see screenshot 2). Here you can set the gallery app of your choice, and choose "Always" in the second attempt. Not all 3rd party gallery apps support the image review feature, though. Also consider the following when using 3rd party gallery apps as default:

Image reviewing when launching camera from a pin-protected lock screen is not supported: rather, you will be redirected to the need of unlocking the phone to open the photo.

Unless the 3rd party gallery app supports viewing of all photos regardless of its folder location (Sony's Album, for example), reviewing Portrait photos contained in individual folders (i.e. when "Save portraits to DCIM/Camera/" is turned OFF) can be annoying since you need to open the entire gallery app to view photos in separate folders.

Same with the Google Photos bug, immediately opening the photo while HDR+ is still processing will bring you back to the viewfinder.

Same with the Classic Photo Viewer, deleting photos here after being automatically backed up via Google Photos will only delete the phone copy.

If you want to change the default 3rd party gallery app, simply open the App info of the current default gallery app -> Advanced -> Open by default -> CLEAR DEFAULTS. Then you can set the default gallery app again.

Known issues:

- If double-tap-to-zoom doesn't work for you, enable it manually in Gestures -> Double-tap action -> Zoom.

- Zooming in using pinch-to-zoom gesture and/or sliding the zoom scrubber sometimes produces <12.2 MP shots. To ensure consistent megapixel photos, use the +/- zoom control buttons instead.

- Tap-to-focus in video mode breaks autofocus; workaround is switching to other modes and back.

- Manual white balance in camera mode doesn't work, but it works in other modes; in Portrait Mode and on the front camera, it works with tap-to-focus.

- Some reports mention lagging of Google Photos. In my case, clearing Photos app cache did the trick, and so far it's working fine.

[MENTION=8980633]back.rider555[/MENTION] is there a chance to add an option to Gcam to turn on auto rotation for the app? :) I have often forced rotation to portrait. It would be cool if Camera app would have auto rotation always on.
