This is the closest to a working front cam that I found so far, but we desperately need a portrait and night sight for the front
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] apkonedotnet:
s10 looks better :) if it's garbage dump it :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] JarkMackson:
Fair enough.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mrsmithb:
I've taken some great pics with my S10+ already, and seen some examples from other folks. Stock camera works fine for most shots and Gcam works great for portraits and night shots. Calling the S10 camera garbage is beyond hyperbole.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Curious but was the V40 wide angle shot with gcam or stock? With the S10, gcam only works with the regular camera and not the wide/telephoto ones since Samsung didn't give those the CameraAPI2 treatment.

What you are noticing is the new trend where phones are processing the images to look great...on phones. Looking at it on a bigger monitor and zooming in and you'll notice that the Samsung wide angle lacks the details in the carpet that the V40 has. There's a lot of noise reducing + sharpening going on. It's the main reason I use gcam as my default camera for the main lens, I don't like Samsung's image processing (the newer iPhones suffer from the same issue). Samsung's does have a wider angle and better dynamic range so that's a positive there. I'm disappointed that the stock Samsung camera's Pro Mode doesn't work with the wide/telephoto lenses. Luckily I don't use either enough over the main one for it to be a deal breaker.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Joseph Gomes:
The stock selfie cam is garbage. Compare it to selfies on Iphone XS or Pixel 3. Stock selfie cam is terribly overexposed and very soft (removes all detail from face, even if beauty mode is disabled)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vonDubenshire:
It's ok during the day if you turn off beauty mode stuff.

It is NOT good indoors though!

Great with gcam tho
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] gypsy214:
It works with your file thanks..... No way to change the camera on the app and which of the 3 cameras it's using
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] daiguren289:
night sight n portrait not working on me,

u know why?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mrsmithb:
FYI, cstark has a version (instructions posted on the galaxys10 subreddit) which works and also supports the wide angle camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Sweet! Updated OP with the cstark version! Wide angle camera works great!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dchurch85:
I followed all of the steps, everything seems to be working great, but I haven't gotten the wide angle yet... any tips? Also, any other settings that need to be changed?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Did you apply the S10csMar2.xml config from https://drive.google.com/open?id=18JIIUxxBW5f0xphVl42QL_0AIFnVruyA ? Once you do that, you can switch to wide angle with the button that normally only switches to front facing camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dchurch85:
Thank you, wasn't noticing the change in angle when I was switching the camera. Any other settings to change?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Nope, anything else is personal preference. Like for me I change the Libs in advanced setting to Savitar V5 because I think that one has the most detail (at the cost of increased noise and a bigger file size).
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] timmyd463229:
Does slow motion work on this app?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] THATTON:
I had a different version of the GCam apk installed before this and I was able to adjust the depth effect in Google Photos and it also took two photos when using Portrait Mode whereas this version seems to only capture one photo. I've turned on the advanced Google Photos option in settings. Am I possibly missing something else? TIA

waiting for exynos version!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zirox:
Hey berserker is there any option to make the button switch to wide angle camera only? Atm for me it works but i have to press it two time 1st click it goes to selfie then i have to press it again to switch to wide angle. And to switch back to regular lens again two more clicks. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] tymex928:
Hi All,

where must i create the gcam folder for the configs? I tried over HDR Settings, that he create one. but i cant find any folder.

What is the exact right path?

Second question: Will there any problems if i installed on the exynos variant? I installed and camera is working.

Thanks

Subscribing for the Exynos working version
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dikmench7:
Does anyone know of a way to make GCam the default camera app? It looks like Samsung doesn't allow you to in the Default App settings. I was wondering if there's a way to force the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mrsmithb:
I don't believe this is possible currently.

---------- Post added at 01:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

gcam folder should be in the root of your internal storage (same level as your DCIM, Downloads, etc.). config folder should be a subfolder under gcam. you have to create both of these folders, can easily be done in any file management app.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kolyan:
Any specific setting to make front cam any good? Right now its crap in both gcam, night sight, and stock app
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Scootmien:
I downloaded the apk from xda at this link - https://www.xda-developers.com/take...samsung-galaxy-s10-with-a-google-camera-port/

I installed it but no Gcam icon is showing up anywhere on my phone for me to access. I know it's user error, what am I doing wrong?

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] oakleyguy89:
Hey guys for some reason no matter if i run the APK from Downloads or from Internal Storage, the GCAM folder is always in my downloads folder. I even move it from downloads to internal storage but it ends up just creating a new GCAM folder in the downloads. Is there a fix for this or should I just let it be??
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Garybob4:
GCam default camera app

not sure about default but you can assign the bixby button to it
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AhsanU:
Got it working on my Exynos version using the APK/config files for the SBA software. Wide angle shots don't save and normal shots come out way too bright. Phone also gets very hot and eats battery like a mofo.

Either way, congrats to the SD version owners!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] illa215:
I'm not seeing the wide angle support. It only flips between front facing and regular for me. Was there a setting you changed?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] peachpuff:
If you keep flipping back and forth it should access the wide angle camera, it goes rear camera>front camera>rear wide angle>front camera>rear camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Outbreak444:
Quickly double tapping the camera switcher will be easier for you to tell it's working.

Quick Question: Do I need to root my phone or can I just follow the steps and be good to go? Also, if I don't want to use anymore, is it as easy as just uninstalling the app?

no need to root, and yes just uninstall.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DoO37:
This is for Snapdragon or Exynos ?

EDIT : I've tried it on my Exynos S10, and it's working with no crashes but the quality is bad compared to stock camera app, also Night Sight and portrait is not working for both rear & front, however i didn't mess up with the settings a lot, so if someone managed to get it working please let us know.

Thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Fizwiz:
Snapdragon
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
I like your config! Keeping stock google lib but tweaking denoise so that it retains quite a bit of detail and yet still effective noise reduction!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Danslides1:
working on my SD version.

It's ridiclous how much better the google camera app is compared to samsung one.

-Note, I was heavy into photography in a past life, so my eyes are biased. If you can't see a difference, just use what feels right!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] apkonedotnet:
hope there's version for exynos :(
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dhorgas:
No go on the wide angle for me. I have tried switching back and forth for a while. Rest seems to be working okay. I am using the Canadian SM-G975W variant with Snapdragon chip. The phone is using the latest SBA update.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] illa215:
Yea same for me. Everything works fine but there's no wide angle on my set-up.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Can you guys download and run this app and see what it says? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.airbeat.device.inspector&hl=en_US

It should show the main back camera as ID 0, a front camera with ID 1, and another back camera as ID 2. All three should have RAW capture support. Back Camera ID 2 is the wide angle so if for some reason you guys don't see it or if it doesn't support RAW, then perhaps your firmware doesn't support it.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] illa215:
Yep only shows back as ID 0 and front as ID 1. They do both have raw capture though.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Interesting, so it looks like your firmware doesn't support the wide angle RAW capture. Since it's a Snapdragon, wonder if it's possible to flash the U1 USA unlocked firmware onto your phone? Might be too much work to enable the wide angle raw capture haha.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] illa215:
Lol yea not a big deal for me. Just glad that the Night Mode works. I'll probably use the stock Samsung camera for everything else but switch to the GCam for night shot
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dhorgas:
In my case it shows all three and all have RAW capture. So weird.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] LuminatX:
I have the same Canadian version, and the wide angle works for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nookcolorlvr:
I have a T-Mobile S10+. I've followed the instructions on the XDA webpage from last week about installing the latest APK and the XML. The front camera is much better than the stock Samsung and the Night Sight mode is almost magical. But like several above I can't get the wide angle lens to show up. I made sure that the latest March XML config was enabled. But just no luck at all. It will only toggle between front and regular back camera's. Another odd thing is that it automatically reverts the back camera from 16:9 to 4:3 every time I toggle the camera. Any way to get the 16:9 mode to "stick"? Other than that the Gcam seems to be working great. I'm looking forward to even more tweaks to it and hopefully figuring out the wide lens and my revert problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] apkonedotnet:
no exynos yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ridl3y:
No go on the wide angle for me

Galaxy s10+ SBA update (Verizon US model)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dhorgas:
Yeah, I think whatever is supposed to enable or allow us to use the wide angle camera is not quite working as expected yet. A bit too hit-and-miss it seems.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Devhux:
For wide angle support, make sure the config file you're loading is the "s10csMar2.xml" one and not "s10cs2.xml". I had that issue until I realized that I was loading the wrong config file.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Paradoxxx:
No issues what so ever with the 9730 model. Wide angle and normal are working perfectly Everytime.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Try FizWiz's XML file posted here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79132601&postcount=75

I actually like his config more than CStark's default. Wide angle works for me with his config too.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nookcolorlvr:
Thanks for the suggestion, beserker15. I appreciate your thread and trying to help those of us new to Gcam. But I tried FizWiz's XML and still couldn't get the wide angle. Tapping the camera button on the bottom left still just toggles between front and rear. Not a huge deal since I can use the stock camera for wide (and telephoto), I suppose. But now it's just frustrating that most other people have it figured out and I don't. You know, it's the principle of the thing now... :)

I've only had my S10+ for a little over a week. Plenty of time to see if the next Gcam update fixes my problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dhorgas:
Wide angle working with this config file. :) Toggle is FF > Regular > FF > Wide and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ridl3y:
Still not working for me :( I can only cycle through the two
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mtotallywired:
Is the face retouching working at all for you guys? I've used beta6 and version ending in 645 (the one recommended here) and there's no difference between no retouching, natural and soft. Doesn't work in either portrait or regular cam. It definitely works on my note 9. On the s10+ snapdragon, everything else works but on portraits all I get is background blur. I even factory reset my phone and made sure not to restore from Google or smart switch. Thinking maybe it has something to do with Google vr services...but haven't figured out a solution
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Success100:
Made a video on this mod and what I think if any of you care to watch! Thanks for all of the hard work on this!!

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] eyeatoma:
Does anyone know why there isn't an exynos version? Does it have anything to do with the soc? Or is it that nobody has created it yet. Would be such a shame if literally most of the world doesn't get the gcam on exynos, while snapdragon does. Please devs help us out.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] equake:
I believe it is because the Google phones all run on Snapdragon SoCs and some of the S/W heavily rely on the SoC for processing acceleration.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DoO37:
There is a gcam exynos version made for all galaxies S8, S9 & note 9, i even tried some of them and they are partialy working on my S10 Exynos..

but we have to wait until it gets fully ported by one of the developers here.. i'm sure it's a matter of time !
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] sunnytran:
How long we will have port version for Exnos chip?

Great job bro. Thanks for sharing with community. But I bought S10 in Vietnam and it only use Exnos chip. I'm waiting for port version of Exnos chip. Thanks for your work. :):):)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jayochs:
just wondering, is there a way to make the front camera zoom out? it's zoomed way too far in and once you go into portrait mode it's impossible to get a good shot. I know gcam naturally zooms in for portrait mode, but it would be nice if the app let's us use the wider angle and work off that for portrait front cam.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mtotallywired:
Just an update, I tried it on my brothers s10+ and getting the same exact thing so I dont think the issue is isolated to my phone. Can see a clear difference between all the modes on note 9. No one else noticing this?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippolito1971:
Thanks much for the mod and XML guys. Will def use Gcam for night shots till Sammy updates the software gotta go to ng us a night mode. Yes Google cam app software is def better but honestly the newest Samsung app and lenses are quite nice. Gotta give them credit on the S10 lineup. They sure did their homework, research, and developed one kicka@# device!! Loving my Prism White S10+, best Samsung S-Line since the S6 imo.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
It's currently a Samsung limitation. Samsung only made 6.5mp of the 10mp sensor available for 3rd party apps. Reasons why I have no idea...The only app that can access the full 10mp wide view is the stock app.

You even factory reset just to get that? Such dedication to get face retouching lol. Most people use GCam because they want the more natural look, I personally did not notice this didn't work without you mentioning it. Samsung's default face retouching should be better anyways since it's tweaked by Koreans. It'll give you smoother, whiter skin lol. Also the front camera is cropped on anything but stock anyways. Stick to stock to get the full 10mp camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SmileBigNow:
Is there anyway to make all photos taken from the GCam to save automatically in the same folder as the built-in camera does? Also it's should save on the SD card? Any way?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippolito1971:
FYI wide angle working here with cycling rear, ff, rear, ff, rear using S10 JFM file. Great work everyone!!

Add - TMO variant S10+ Feb security patch
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippolito1971:
Gotta add.....night sight Gcam is so good on the S10+ its a glaring difference. I really hope Samsung improves the software for this and the upcoming Note 10. Took this testing night sight on my front lawn. My tree is starting to bloom and seeing the buds so colorfully with the Gcam mod versus Samsung auto lowlight/night feature there's a defining difference and portrait mode versus live focus is dramatic as well. While I love the cllor.pop feature and other options from love focus the standard bokeh is dramatic.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ippolito1971:
Used the jfm XML file and night sight along with wide angle.are working. TMO variant on Feb security patch and followed reddit instructions for Gcam version ??
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bigmann77:
Sorry if this has been answered. Where do the photos save? Anyway to have them save on SD card?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] squall_kay:
I wish there will be working version for Exynos s10+
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xxaarraa:
I have both, and have to say the gcam port on S10 works as smoothly and reliably as the Pixel 3 itself. Only drawback is you cannot map it to hardware shortcut - i.e., double click power button to launch gcam. That still goes to stock Samsung camera app. Other than that, you won't see a difference.

I have had gcam ports of a variety of LGs, and now the S10 and have to say it works much faster and smoother on Samsungs.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nsg0216:
Great to hear that. I am using the LG G6, but dust got into my camera. S10e just feels like a direct upgrade over my G6 at a reasonable price and without losing anything. But I love what gcam can do when I used it on my G6. Now knowing that the gcam port work better on Samsung than on LG, I can have the best of both worlds.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dkdontforget:
It works really well I have had no crashes and the pictures are beautiful. However the only thing that I noticed does not work cuz you cannot record a video with the wide-angle camera cycle all you want but it will not switch to the wide angle camera
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] elite-fusion:
Can't get the loading screen working to load the config. Double tapping by the shutter does not work for some reason. I have clicked on everywhere in the black are.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TBHSilentAce07:
Face retouching does not work for me either. It takes the photo, but there just isn't any application of it to the photo.

I'm kind of surprised there hasn't been more mention of this.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] THATTON:
Has anyone been able to get the live tracking autofocus feature to work? I have kids in one of the things I love about the pixel camera is how well it takes photos of a moving subject but I cannot get it to work on the S10 for the life of me.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] guest_2011:
Is this only for s10? Does it work with 10e?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TBHSilentAce07:
Works on the 10e.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nookcolorlvr:
OK, I finally figured out why I couldn't get the wide angle to work. Apparently it's a quick DOUBLE tap on the lens toggle button. Either I spaced over that tip or just never saw it. But once I stumbled onto that I can toggle to the wide lens now. Although every time I switch from the front lens to one of the rear lens the rear camera aspect ratio switches back to the default 4:3, instead of my preferred selected 16:9. Any way to get the 16:9 to "stick" during the toggle?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TBHSilentAce07:
I've been trying to figure out how to get face retouching to work but no success yet. Not sure what it could be... Anyone else figure it out? Maybe just a simple setting? Regardless of whether soft, natural or off, it's the same effect.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] beserker15:
Face retouching doesn't currently work with Gcam on the S10...but I'm confused why you guys are trying to get it to work when the stock cam does it better? The stock cam already does face retouching well and has access to the wider angle mode that gcam doesn't get for the front camera. Gcam is generally better for more details and a natural look, and stock is better for a more vibrant processed look.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TBHSilentAce07:
Generally speaking, I've found that gcam does better in lower light conditions (night sight aside). It's not a deal breaker, but it's just curious in that specific feature doesn't work, given that everything else does pretty well.

Also, a sidenote, I went ahead and downloaded a different 3-23-19 apk from Celso Azevedo. It does have a few additional settings added and seems to be stable, but EDIT: wide angle works too. Just need to adjust the setting to long press or cycle. Still no retouching though, but that's to be expected.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xxaarraa:
Gcam captures MUCH MUCH more detail in the photos than the stock camera app, without the aggressive noise reduction and sharpening of the stock app. Samsung's (or for that matter, LG's) camera hardware is all there, their processing is not even close compared to what Google can do. Without a doubt, hands down, in any scenario, gcam produces better photos than stock camera apps.
