I am part of telegram group where beta testing is done. I tested parrot gcam and collected donation for him. The port is now available for everyone. Parrot said it is his last effort for our device since the donation effort was poor.

Sanity is on my friends list on telegram. He categorically said he won't develop for Poco anymore. The donation we collected for parrot was half meant for sanity as parrot used sanity as base. Sanity refused the money and asked us to donate it for planning trees and we did.

If you are part of OP group, arnova is very much active and there are 5 releases of arnova on 7.0. none of them have made it to celzo website. He does not upload beta anymore.

Dice and urnyx are also pretty active and they both said they won't make it work for 845 chipset.

None of my comments are based on rumors. If you want latest updates on gcam, join telegram and be in touch with developers personally.

Crowd funding has already begun for K2pro. You did reserve your judgement before collecting information.

Hey guys, as per the poll of Gcam crowdfunding we got a positive response from all. So we are going ahead with this.

We contacted few of the Gcam devs as per their work record and San1ty aka [MENTION=1133751]fahmi[/MENTION]gram182 agreed to support the community.

GOAL TO COLLECT: 410€

Paypal Link: http://paypal.me/plsendmoinei

UPI LINK: MOD EDIT: Telegram link removed, please read the STICKY!

NOTE: We have already crowdfunded 2 devices for the community, and we are proud that each CF has been successfully completed within 2 days.

This is the last Crowdfunding we are doing for the K20 Pro community, as this will cover all the development areas.

We expect full support from the community, & as usual we will keep everything transparent about donations!

Cheers and godspeed!.

Need help with Xlib V2 XS

[MENTION=9274840]sannn111ty[/MENTION] Sir, the F1v9.5_6.2.030 build is the most stable build I've seen for our Poco F1. Thank you so much for your hard work. Much Appreciated.

I really wanted the Xlib V2 XS lib cuz I like it more personally, so I tried to decompile another apk, extracted the Xlib from libs folder and placed it in your apk replacing the Saves lib ( renamed ) and then recompiled it.

When I installed it on my device, everything is working fine except HDR+ (which uses the libs) when I toggle on Saves in settings to use Xlib. Where am I going wrong? Need Help. Just a noob :)

Thanks in advance

Also thanks for your amazing work.

Edit: Nevermind, the extracted lib was from gcam 6.1 so wont work with 6.2
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Carlos_EVH:
So the development of the gcam mod for our phone is dead, isn't it? Well, that's a shame.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] roursamajor:
I told you... you didn't believe me. ;)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mohan_168:
People want things for free. They will buy a coffee for 4 bucks but will not give 2 to the developer. Who the hell will be interested?

Not all developers have a stable job. Some are even college kids who need support for education.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Carlos_EVH:
I understand it perfectly, no one works for free but this situation is a pity for all of us because GCam is one of the most important mod that a phone can have to buy one.

What is the donation link to San1ty? Because the link that is on his profile redirect to a youtube video.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] roursamajor:
On the other hand, they could make and sell their own apps on Play Store, if the money are the problem. But that means to make apps close to perfection, otherwise customers won't buy them.

But what they do is to adapt other's app and make it full of bugs, beeing exonerated from any liability, because the app is free, isn't it? Or maybe not? ;) I admit there is, probably, a lot of work to make an app port functional, but in this case they should (at least) listen the reports of users. But, as far as I noticed, here, the suggestions aren't taken into account. I would donate even more than 2$, but I demand some respect from them, at least in solving reported issues.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jackiass:
Why? What entitles you to that? What consequences would they suffer if they don't respect you?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] roursamajor:
It's about comercial type respect, dude. In case they want money. ;) Sicerely, I don't care about them, as I know they don't care me. Capisci?

This type of activity (custom firmwares, modded apps etc.) it's something like open source and is made by pleasure, not for money. Of course donation are well accepted, but not pretended. ;) You have example of Magic Lantern for Canon dSLRs, or CHDK for Canon point and shot. And there are other millions examples.

I have never seen developers ask for a specific sum. More than those not donating, what irritates developers are the folks who keep demanding stuff.

Hey, XYZ has released 7.2.1000. Why the heck are you sleeping and not releasing. When are we going to get the latest and most awesome stuff for our phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xratedownz:
So what should we use now if it is discontinued? Are there any active gcam project like this that i can follow? I will be appreciated if you link it to me. Thanks.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] roursamajor:
It seems to me a contradiction in what you say... I maintain my opinion about modified/hacked/ported things: the work on them shouldn't be conditionated by money. Maybe I'm an old romantic, stucked in times when people made these things for others by pleasure, only then for money. My 2 cents, of course.

Demanding stuff shouldn't irritate devs, some of us know more than them about photo, the suggestions could be accepted. ;) And how that irritation reconciles with donation asking?

OK, I'm out of this "dispute".

For the others who want a good Gcam port: please give links with (living) ports who satisfied you. Thanks in advance.

It works on Pixel Experience 10

---------- Post added at 10:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 PM ----------

There are 2 kinds of developers. A developer who has purchased the model (out of his own money), and starts working on GCAM. He is not behind money, and he personally wants the best out of his phone.

The second kind, where the developer does not own the specific device for himself, but tries to mod/port GCAM for a community. In this case, he might want some remuneration.

In both cases (and especially in the second case), modder should be happy that he have beta testers and also be receptive to their suggestions. Donation should be the crowning of its work and the satisfaction of testers/users. "You've got to give a little more than you take", said an ancient wise word.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jackiass:
It's amazing how opposite perceptions we have on this. For me it's the exact opposite. If I get a free meal I don't complain that it needs salt. I just say thank you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CHGICEMAN:
Both [MENTION=5138470]roursamajor[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4106781]jackiass[/MENTION] arguments are right for themselves. A DEV would be well advised, if he gets information about his software, no matter if mistakes or improvements.

At the same time you should be very grateful for the work, because without his work this software would not exist at all. And constantly moaning does not help then!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] roursamajor:
That's because you eat everything, even unchewed. :D I mean, you are probably a camera user, not photographer: you want to use it on AUTO mode and that's it. I already explained why the feedback (it's not moaning) is necessary: the devs know programming, the photograph know photography. "Free meals" for photographers are already on Google Play and they are full of features and very usefull (Open Camera for example). At least if I should spend some $ (even for a donation), I expect to get at least some of what I want/propose. Otherwise, I'm not willing to give it.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] roursamajor:
It wasn't me who started this discussion about donations. ;) I only commented on it.

Most important is that this port is dead. I wonder why... 'cause sanity said very few months ago that he'll not stop the support for Poco. So, rumor lancer guys about donation seem to have right: donations aren't enough. I can't identify another reason.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jackiass:
Well I would not expect a photographer to be swinging a pocophone as a camera so I'm not really sure what that comparison should examplify. If I want to MAKE a photo I bring out my dslr, if I want to TAKE a photo I'm fine with the phone.

I'm actually not talking photography at all but the lack of entitlement I feel when someone offers me something for free. Could be a cultural difference or something about how we were brought up different but gratitude would be my first reaction.

The stable build is totally fine and works out of the box. I'll stick to that for snapshots.

Need to know how to change HDR+ Enhanced Parameters (No. Of Frames)

I had been using BSG 6.2.024 Razer version for my F1 and it was fine perfectly but it had no Manual control like the sanity stable version 6.2.030, which allows shutter times, etc. However, the quality of 6.2.030 sanity is insanely lower due to lower number of frames (default I suppose) unlike the "High no more than 16 frames" in bsg .24 build. I want to know how can i change the HDR+ enhanced parameters in this 6.2.030 sanity build. I use my phone for reviewing stuff and don't have DSLR and can withstand even the 60 frames as I use a tripod for pictures of products. Can anyone help me, please? The default pics of sanity 6.2.030 builds are extremely noisier than bsg with high 16 frame setting. Also, sanity build doesn't allow using configs I believe, any workaround for that? Please, any help would be appreciated a lot.

So apparently this thing happened. Don't know how much stock we need to put into this, but according to the article the vulnerability was patched in the official gcam in July.

I think we don't have that vulnerability because our beta build(7) is from 2019-10-06 and stable(6) from 2019-08-16, but it's needed much to happen, so no big worries...

On my Poco F1 this will start a video recording for both versions listed on the start page of this thread (F1v10.3_7.0.009 and F1v9.5_6.2.030)

note: for F1v10.3_7.0.009 I needed to slightly change the code to

com.google.android.GoogleCameraEng/com.android.camera.CameraActivity --ez
extra_turn_screen_on true -a android.media.action.VIDEO_CAMERA --ez

v9.xxx are made for Pie not for Q.

Use v10. Still don't expect it to be as good as v9 for Pie. Xiaomi has still not released Android Q vendor files or Q based MIUI.

It'll get better after Xiaomi releases those and Devs can work accordingly.
