UltraCVM_v4.1

More mystery... Urnyx's GCam download changlog says that his GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v1.8.apk package supports XML configs... if only I could get it to install...

I've tried UltraCVM_v4.1.apk and although I'm not a fan of the styling, it certain works better than anything I've tried so far for Android 10 on the G7+ and will load XML configs.

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-UltraM8/

Only done some basic testing so far. Notes:

- AutoWB is disabled, so color doesn't have a green tint (good). Seems to lack the "pop" of 6.3 but it's a decent image. I need to try different lighting more and see. :o

- Portrait mode works but I don't think the depth sensor on the G7+ is being used as background blur is "flat" and particularly edge detection is poor, so it's quite bad with artifacts around hair etc. (common issue). I don't use portrait much so this doesn't bother me. :p

- Video works :good:

- Night sight works. :good:

- Not sure but I think Sabre might be disabled (?) as (high) zoom (4x) looks very "watercolory". Cannot set this in the options?

- I think OIS is working. :confused:

- Produces large JPGs - about 10Mb a piece whereas Urnyx 6.3 was about half that. So this will fill up the phone much quicker, not great. Personally I prefer smaller file size as JPEG compression is very good even at moderate rates (cue Holy War from the RAW brigade). Again seems not possible to adjust in the settings. :(

- Very fast and snappy taking photos and sequences of photos. The older Urnyx 6.3 was really poor at that, so this is a big upgrade in my mind - much much much less lag and shutter lag, especially multiple images. :good: :good:
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] washoq:
That's strange. I use latest Urnyx and can save/load configs without problems. Do you have "Configs" option in settings?
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] user288432:
The problem I got with XML config load/save was with Parrot.

I can't install any of Urnyx's more modern packages (>7.0) and have tried several - I think it's conflicting with some previous GCam I installed. I can remove and reinstall the original 6.1 package on this thread though. When I try to install a newer Urnyx package (>7.0), I get a message:

Do you want to install an update to this existing application? Your existing data will not be lost

But I don't already have it installed (cleared out all Camera apps on my phone and restarted it, only the stock Moto Cam remains which cannot be removed). Then I get an error:

App not installed

But no clue what the problem is. Other GCams are OK, just Urnyx I get this problem with. I think there is some package conflict on my phone that probably needs rooting or faffing about to fix... life's too short - I have UltraCVM which mostly works OK and nothing is perfect huh?
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] digitaljeff:
Yeah so far out of all gcams I have tried, ultraCVM seems to be the best all around . I have AWB on and it seems fine to me (no green tint) also in terms of file size, have you tried dropping image quality down in the quick settings drop down ?
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] user288432:
There's no (JPG) quality adjustment on my ultraCVM version. There is an "Image Size" option in the tear down settings shortcut but I think this controls the number of HDR frames - it doesn't affect file size in any real way. I can't find anything either in the full settings.

For AWB the green tint I'd get is quite subtle. But once I notice it, I cannot then not see it anymore :p Also, if I edit with Snapseed and adjust WB it's very obvious. It's most noticeable with AWB on vs off in the same scene. BUT I found that in ultraCVM it's possible to set the Back Sensor profile to (Sony) IMX363 which I think is the sensor the G7+ has. I haven't done much testing with this so far but it might help. I will see... So for now, I leave AWB off (ultraCVM default) but this still produces nice shots in daylight.

One downer - I found Portrait mode is more broken than I thought. The images have weird cyan/magenta areas in highlights and super-bright backgrounds in some scenes. It's a bit random, I don't know what triggers it. The original photo is fine, but the Portrait one is totally useless. I can post some (crop) examples but no way I am using it for anything I care about... Urnyx 6.1 I never had any such problems.
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] user288432:
A bit more digging...

I think this only affects the noise reduction profile, not AWB.

Portrait mode seems broken on UltraCVM :crying: and others reporting issues too, see: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82663107&postcount=292
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] digitaljeff:
so looking back at parrots releases i noticed that there were 2 ver's of Parrots Gcam 7.3.0.020 V2, it looks like he repacked his 7.3.020 releases beginning in May. try installing the v2 from March 25, MGC_7.3.020_Parrot043-v2.apk (Parrot043, 2020-03-25, configs, changelog) https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-parrot043/ as this looks like the most recent ver allowing config loading.

This was the V2 I was using previously. See if AWB, OIS and Portrait work better for you in this one. I just re-installed it to confirm that yes config loading works, where as the V2 from may 11th does not allow config loading. slow-mo is broken however.. seems like we can't have it all when it comes to gcam lol.. will have to pick and choose a version that has MOST of the features we want working /shrug . i think this version will also give you the file size options you were looking for, able to change jpg quality, but unsure...

for me I'm going to stick with this one as I've consistently had nice looking pics with it before I started down this whole rabbit hole by upgrading to v5.. and keep ultracvm to compare i suppose.. between the 2 i think i have everything working i like.

Edit: I now see the green tint you were mentioning with AWB on, both in this ver and ultracvm..I guess I either never noticed it before or had AWB off
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] user288432:
Thanks for the link - I'll try this out and see. A few days ago, I went back and tried a later Parrot version than that one but had other issues with it, and not a lot of tweaking potential, so gave up on it.

Haha - I know exactly what you mean about "MOST of the features" - it is always a compromise. :laugh:

I found that the motog7plus.xml on the GCam website is quite out-of-date. It has a load of different attributes vs if I save a config out of the latest cameras.

Yesterday, I installed PXv4.3_GoogleCamera_7.2.014.apk which is looking quite good at the moment but I need to do more tests with it. Portrait seems to work well with (I think using the depth sensor on the G7+) and color and image quality is nice, no AWB issues. It also produces reasonable size JPGs too, not too large. Zoom (2x+) is a little watercolory but it doesn't bother me much. Sabre can be forced on and produces nice detailed images. Only major issue seems to be no config loading but there are lots of tweaks in the settings anyway. Minor issue is that there is no exposure compensation (usually I dial in -0.2EV as I find the G7+ will blow highlights a little easily).

Another problem I noticed is close focus. Often with a close subject (say < 12-24 inches) and far background, the G7+ will focus away on the background leaving a blurred subject, even when touching focus point close up. I think this is the G7+ as it seems to be consistent across all the GCam versions I've tried.

I would even be looking to upgrade if 6.1 still worked... :p It's definitely trial-and-error.

Yes, I only get it with AWB on. Side-by-side with it on/off in the same scene makes it pretty obvious. It's more noticeable in some scenes that others but for me, it messes with the color in horrible weird ways that is hard to correct. With AWB off (I think leaving it to Camera2API) things look much more natural.
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] digitaljeff:
Coolbeans! I really appreciate you also looking into this as your looking at things i normally would gloss over when searching for a good, compatible gCam version (portrait, AWB etc) maybe we'll nail down a version that works all around eventually lol

For me with AWB on i only noticed the tint in low light situations, mid-day bright i couldn't discern a diff, but its nice to know its there so i can take shots with it on as well as off moving forward for things i really care to capture well.

Mind sharing the config you've been using? i'd be interested in giving it a go. maybe I'll give that PX version a go today to compare. I did try portrait on parrots and it seemed to work, however, i only took a single shot and moved on to other tests (not really a feature i use, so wasn't to concerned but interested to hear your thoughts).
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] user288432:
I've only been using the motog7plus.xml file from www.celsoazevedo.com. But I'm not sure which versions of GCam this is supposed to work with. PX GCam doesn't support config loading (only Settings).
[Moto G7 Plus Themes, Apps, and Mods] digitaljeff:
Ah gotcha, from what I know it's universal. The only one I've found, but you can manually play around with the config in a text editor.

Gcam Port for Moto G7 Plus - video sound problem

Hi,

I 've been using gcam port from celsoazevedo.com on my Moto G7 Plus running Lineageos 17.1 - Urnyx05: GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v1.9.apk and previous versions also. Everything is working fine except i have no sound in recorded videos. The stock camera and sound recorder app record audio without problems. I've tried latest gcam port by Arnova8G2 and also had no sound in video. Unfortunetly parrot043 apk crashes instantly after taking picture on my phone and i can't test it. Any ideas?

EDIT: I've installed OpenCamera which also didn't record any audio at first glance. However, after changing the sound source in settings from "camera" to "default" videos are recorded with audio! I can't find any Gcam port with the option to select the sound source for video recording. Is there a such? Is anyone else experiencing video recording sound problems on their Moto G7 Plus or is it just my phone?

Nevertheless, there is brand new version of UltraCVM_v5.1, updated on 03.08.2020 which works pretty OK with G7+.

I just installed 7.3.018_Urnyx05-v2.5.apk on my Moto G7 Plus. Everything seems to work so far other than no audio recording in video. I saw previously others have had this issue too. Is there a setting I need to select or a workaround for this?

Hello. I'm using GCam 7.4 recommended on this site: https://gcambrasil.com.br/motorola/moto-g7-plus/

And together I'm using a configuration I found here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/configs-parrot-03/

I noticed that in the photos the shadows and dark parts are always with these lines appearing, as in this example (increase the image in maximum resolution to see): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bli2xQ6DhLk73rJDpeWAgTjcHmA8Sfvr/view? usp=sharing

Can't you remap bixby button now in factory software?

Yes but very limited, with bxActions you can remap single, double, long press and more and also launch actions from lockscreen.

Like toggle flashlight when the screen is off with a double tap..

That can happen on some apps if you use standard remapping on single press. You could take screenshot on long press, or unlock remapping over a PC and that problem will be solved.

Ok so I just tried to use Bixby voice (Hi Bixby) and of course with the full remapping it doesn't work, which is expected behavior.

I disabled remapping and then tried easy remapping, still doesn't work. I thought this option would let Bixby work? When I say Hi Bixby the Bixby emblem comes up on the top of the screen for a second and then disappears.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
Have you selected enabled in bxActions actions on long press?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] bp328i:
I guess I must have because I uninstalled the app last night and just reinstalled it, ran the easy remapping and now it's working.

Current settings:

In the phone settings (not app) under Bixby key I have that set as single press for Bixby and double press for GCam

In the bxActions app I set Google as the single press action and left long press disabled.

Now everything seems to be working.

Single press opens Google voice assistant

Double press opens GCam

Long press and hold lets me talk to Bixby and now I can also just say Hi Bixby and that's working also.

I guess that's what I get for messing with things when I should be sleeping ?
