I tried many Gcam apks and I couldn't get Night mode to work on any of them.

Download this Gcam mod to get full working night mode on the A70:

MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e

Any gcam mod with wide-angle lens support by any chance?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] DoobyDroid:
Think the pixel 3/xl only has front facing wide angle lense if your referring to rear camera then I doubt it but it might be when pixel 4 releases I'm sure that may have rear wide angle seems the trend in 2019
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] reanimator69:
Yeah but I saw some mods for LG phones as well as some others that support the wide angle sensor in the back, tried it on my A70 - couldn't switch to the wide angle. Oh well, maybe with time someone will port it properly.

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] CyberOvca:
Can someone post some (uncompressed) pictures, I would be very thankful!

I was fully committed to buy this phone, but am now having second thoughts, because of mediocre camera review scores. :(
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] dannejanne:
I don't have Gcam samples to show only stock camera photos. These have however been edited by me in the Photos app some of them more than others. Gcam pictures have less megapixels but have more details in them specially in low light but colors can be weird with Gcam and the dynamic range is not good with it compared to stock. I have not found a Gcam version that gives me better photos to work with than the stock app really. Gcam needs to be optimized for the A70. Now it's inconsistent. Here are some samples what stock camera is capable of if you know how to edit photos as they can look bland straight from camera. Mixed 12mp and 32mp photos. Full size can be downloaded.

How did you manage to take such great pictures with the A70. I can't get any pics like that. The one of the dog is brilliant. I try that and all I get is grainy and pixelated when I zoom on the photo.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] ShazamXD:
I tried out a few other versions too and found that this version works while being even more stable on my A70, and includes the newer features in the GCam app.

You just have to change Image Format to YUV_420_888 in settings just like you did in the previous mod.

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] G1032:
Hmmmm

Installed this. Silly question but where are the photos it takes stored? Not showing up in gallery.

Edit. I had Nexus 6P selected instead of Pixel 3 XL. Switched to Pixel 3 XL and photos save now

Edit 2. Photos save to internal memory. Any way to switch save location to external sd card?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] ShazamXD:
Hmm, there doesn't seem to be anything in the settings that changes this, but it isn't something that bothers me since I use google photos instead of the built in gallery app.

I will likely continue to look at updated versions of the app and see if they add something like this in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] G1032:
Depth Edit

This is driving me mad

I was going through the edit options on a photo I took. Came across a depth editing feature. Basically Bokeh affect.

Can't find it again. Only get this pop editing feature

Googled it and it says depth edit possible on a portrait photo when viewed in Google Photos. But tried this and can't find the feature again

Anybody know how to get this depth editing feature?

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] teagon98:
Can I ask about 8 mpix limitation of Gcam ? Is there a version that allows higher resolution?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] 106IFA:
The 4:3H feature on the Samsung app does not make a difference.

But on the Gcam with 8mp, I do notice more detail, so there's hope.

BTW, I tried "Open Camera" but I get even worse resolution with it than the stock.

Overall, the phone on the Samsung is not bad. With Gcam you get more detail but it's topped out at 8mp at 4:3 aspect ratio.

Initially I was disappointed with the Samsung's phone, but now I like it. It's as good as if not better than my previous phone which I was impressed with in terms of how much documentary details I was able to pick up from an environment by zooming in on the pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] wastedagen:
I can show you where the option to switch cameras is, but unfortunately in all the apk's I've tried it won't switch to wide angle. Just front and back.

In all apk's I've used its in or around settings/general/gesture.

In there change the 'double tap action' to switch cameras.....

Unless I'm still not looking in the right place....
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] 106IFA:
We are still waiting for a Gcam APK that can make use of higher resolution, has a night cam mode, and can switch to the wide angle on both the front and the rear.

But until then, in case it hasn't been posted, this is the best Gcam APK I've come across so far:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79103867&postcount=69

It's the Gcam for the Xiaomi Note 7 Pro.

I like the Samsung native camera app for its polish and functions (hyperlapse, super slow mo, and wide angle) but the resolution it gives is lacking so far.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] willsrockson:
What is truly the Ram size?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] James.Miller:
Well, you might be waiting for it but I'm not. Its already been shown that the full res modes arent really any different with the stock app. It seems entirely pointless to me to work to support that in GCAM when the sensors are built for pixel binning.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] 106IFA:
Nonetheless, software should be able to fix or improve a lot of things.

I've tested with the Gcam app for Pixel III and the Gcam app for the Nokia 7 Plus. Both apps give me a lot more detail than the Samsung in 4:3H.

For instance, I took photos of my office today and I noticed that in pictures taken by the native app, I couldn't really see the lines from the grains of wood on the chair in the middle of the office space. But they were distinct and clear with the Gcam apps. Not to mention, in almost total darkness I get more light with the Gcam apps than I do with the Samsung app, even without the nightmode.

If I can get the picture quality of the Gcam apps in the Samsung app, which is a lot more polished, IMO, then I'd be happy. I like the hyperlapse and super slow mo features of the Samsung app and don't want to have to flip between two apps to use my phone as a camera.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] AndroidUK2016:
Has anyone had any luck with getting a 12mp output through gcam? Fingers still crossed
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] wastedagen:
Unfortunately not me. Every GCam app tried just give 8mp rear and 5mp front as max option.

Also on a side note, with every GCam app tried I can't get wide angle lens to be used. I can switch from front to back by tapping the screen, but it always misses out the wide angle lens.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] AndroidUK2016:
Thanks for letting me know

Everything else about this phone is great.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] Jason379:
So, I did a little more research on the topic about the whole 8mp thing..

In the A70, Samsung is using a so-called 'Quad Bayer Sensor'. These sensors use four pixels of each color instead of one and then combine the captured light rays on said four pixels to create one 'accurate' colored pixel in the final image. In short - it is a 32mp sensor but it only gives an 8mp output due to the quad Bayer array. Sounds really nice in theory, but, Samsung has been crippling the capabilities of the A70 since the very beginning by adding some very heavy processing algorhithms on the captured images, which you cannot turn off.

That is also why Gcam only detects 8mp instead of 32mp, as the 32mp mode in the native camera app is nothing but an interpolated version of the captured 8mp image.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] AndroidUK2016:
Aaah that makes so much sense now. I assumed it was the 48mp variety, not 32. I'm glad I didn't buy it in the hope a 12 mp version would come out

[G3 General] Rexkh:
When I receive a call, the phone number in Call History is in format +1 514-XXX-XXXX(Space between 1 and 514) so when I call back the carrier block the call. I have to the write down the number and manually type the number by taking out space and dash to make a call go through. It's so annoying to do this every time. Even if I save the number by taking out space, it still there. Any solution to fix this? Can I replace default Dialer and Contacts App.
[G3 General] hyelton:
That’s Normal and how it’s supposed to show up, on income calls for both T-Mobile and AT&T anyway for me. And never have any issue calling it back. Spaces shouldn’t have anything to do with calling it back. Now sometimes having that 1 there might throw off the Carrier. But the spaces won’t do anything.

View attachment 4760845

It’s like this on both iPhone and Android.

What’s your carrier and device?

If iPhone you there’s no 3rd party Dailer

LG G3 of cause in this section. Android Lollipop. You know know to fix it, don't you?
[G3 General] hyelton:
I don’t see any issue with having spaces as spaces wouldn’t have an effect on it. What message are you getting?

The spaces are Normal
[G3 General] Rexkh:
It says "This call is blocked". When I input the number manually without space, it works. I insert the sim card into another phone which format has no space (+1514XXXXXXX) and it works, which mean the space is the problem. Do you know how to replace default dailer? Just to try and see if it works with new dialer.
[G3 General] hyelton:
You can try looking In the play store. Make sure you don’t have any international dialer helpers enabled.

What provider are you using?
[G3 General] Rexkh:
I just want to inform that I found the solution. Just flash Custom Rom and it's fixed.

You're Not Alone..

I Just Did A 14 Day Exchange With My Original Unit... :cool:

And It Literally Happened On The 14th Day... :eek:

It Got to the point where you needed to have it connected to a charger just to power it on...

That Should Get You Guys Going... :good:

But I now fear... this is a "Luck-Of-The-Draw" situation..

And may happen any time to any unit.. even though my New Replacement Unit seems just fine so far..

My Advice would be for everyone to shut your unit Off and On at least 50 times... to see if your device triggers this Horrific Issue..

Between this fear and the Bluetooth issue of Cutting In and Out... that also seems to persist on most units, I may do an upgrade to an S-Class Unit..

Hi guys, so I have a Galaxy S10+ for like 2 months now and the problem is that I have these little visible specks on the front and rear camera covers of the phone.
