Sharing my experience with this version of GCam.

1. Night mode is of no use in very low light as it just lights up the image but blurs the image to a point that you can see anything except a blurred photo.

2. Selfies are totally mess. Regular and Portrait mode selfies both are too much grainy that you even doubt your natural skin tone and color.

3. Regular photos are sometime better than stock camera but most of the time stock camera has edge over the GCam.

So may be my experience is different or I may not have played with any type of settings but I switching back to Stock Camera app. At least not using this version of GCam.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Monk4Life:
The best gcam ive used so far is this one. GCam_7.2.010_Urnyx05-v1.4

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-urnyx05/

I only use the primary lense and not telephoto or wide-angle so I don't know if those are working in this build for our phones, but for the primary lense it's been taking flawless photos for me. I'm using the T-Mobile 7T.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Oh Hi Mark:
Could you provide more details? Are you using the same config as some others in this thread, which settings do you use, how do you switch lenses? Would be awesome to know that :)
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] stamos*bp:
i don't think it uses/requires any sort of XML file. in the original post on XDA, they do mention some suggested settings in the settings/advanced/lib patcher.

overall the 1.4 by urnyx has been great. i can't seem to get tele or wide on it, which is fine - i can always use the stock camera for that.

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mr.Nice.ba:
Front camera is working great, portrait mode also. There is one anoying thing when you want to take portrait shot, picture in viewfinder looks overexposed, but when you take it, final image looks great.

Can you share the settings/configurations you have done to the GCam? As I have downloaded and changed the recommended settings but still the front cam pictures are too much sharp and towards darker tones than natural ones.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] mpetruzz:
I tried the latest version being talked about and had no luck. Some shots had washed out colors and the portrait mode didn't work for me.

I'm on the T-Mobile variant if that matters at all.

I have both 6T and 7T and selfies using gcam on my 6T look amazing, but on 7T they look horrible... Anyone knows why?
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] jAm-0:
very washed out, also manually trying to use wide angle breaks it

edit - using Urnyx05's latest
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] mpetruzz:
No matter which version I install the colors are very washed out. The pictures are very sharp etc, just very grey.

Any fix for that?? Do I need to change any settings??
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] siksik6:
Using the latest version from Urnyx05 from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-urnyx05/ and everything I've tried works fine. Portrait, normal shots, night mode.

Some of the modes (portrait for eg) look overly bright when taking the picture but the end result is usually fine.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] mpetruzz:
Yeah that's the one I tried and the colors are washed out.

My software version is still 10.0.04 so maybe that's the issue. I'm using an older version and the colors are fine.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mr.Nice.ba:
Go to settings, advanced, pixel awb in HDR+ and select IMX586. Now you will have better color saturation.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] mpetruzz:
That def looks better but still not vibrant. Any other settings I could tweek?
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] sid3track3d:

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] mpetruzz:
Thanks for the info but the pictures are still very full in the color department
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] beanpolebiker:
The GCam mod on the OnePlus 7t is a mess. I have tried over 20 suggested versions and XML along with changing all sorts of settings, but in not even one any satisfactory photos were achieved. No idea how people here are saying it's working well.

Especially with human subjects, every single photo has a green tint with ugly HDR/over sharpening. The focus is also not tack sharp. I used to love the GCam mod on my Nokia 8.1 and it gave me almost Pixel level photos. But on the 7t, the photos are garbage.

I hope a working version comes out as the stock app is bad, especially the slow shutter and poor low light performance (without night mode)
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] v.konvict:
I totally agree with you on this. Am also waiting on a better build of GCam....i was on Oneplus 3 and you could really see the difference between the using the app and stock app.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] sneakerspark:
Have you ever thought about the possibility that Stock app in 7T has improved considerably as compared to 3T stock app? Hence we dont see much difference in GCAM ports and stock app? Remember that its just a port which means its not optimized for our phone.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] v.konvict:
Am not comparing the 7t to the 3. Am comparing the difference of the ports to the stock apps. As much as it has improved over the OP3 the camera quality is not that good when comparing with the Pixel 4 hence the reason to get a GCam port since its notabout the hardware. Its aboutthe software
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
1. It is about the hardware, gcam is made for pixel devices not Chinese devices. Pixel 4 and the 1+7t have completely different hardware for their cameras and the software is not made for our hardware. 2. No idea what anyone is talking about as the gcam is working fine on my 7t. Besides if you are using your phone to take high quality photos, you deserve a beating upside your head. Go and buy a decent camera and stop thinking a midrange phone is a substitute for a camera. Do you also complain that your camera gets horrible cell phone reception?!!!?

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Eddiemc:
Are they from pixel country then? I'm joking.

Both uses Qualcomm and I haven't checked but I assume it's a Sony lense, right?

So not all that different. Still you have a point that the software isn't made for this device but there's no reason why it can't be tuned to work.

I guess pixels are "Vietnam devices" now and guess what, they used to be Chinese devices too:

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] tanzeel.ahmed1306:
No you are wrong . Their hardware isn't different. Only thing is the software optimization is different for pixel devices . People are pissed off because gcam port has made wonders in devices who have great hardware but terrible software. Since OnePlus devices don't have too quality optimization they expect some quality photos from gcam. This is just the beginning. I am sure development will take place and we will get better gcam ports that support our device !It's all about personal preference.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] beanpolebiker:
That is a ridiculous argument that makes no sense of multiple levels.

The 7T is not a midrange phone for starters. Then, it uses the same sensor as the Pixel 4. Further, there is nothing wrong in using a good camera phone as your primary shooter, as in 2019 they are more than capable of achieving fantastic results without weighting a kilogram like a conventional camera setup, unless you are shooting sports or wildlife.

Please share some photos of human subjects shot on GCam if it's working so well for you.

However,OnePlus really needs to sort it camera software out. I find the output from budget Xiaomi phones like the Poco (with GCam) and the latest Note 8 to be better than the 7t. My previous phone, a Nokia 8.1 had insane compatibility with a GCam mod and delivered Pixel 3 level photos, but then it had Zeiss optics which surely helped. I miss that phone now just for the camera.

It's either the bad processing algorithms or really low grade optics which are a problem here. If Xiaomi can do it, why can't BBK??
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
Because the phones use different HARDWARE. It is not a software issue, it is a hardware issue. And any 1+ device is a midrange phone at best, budget phone more likely. I don't take pics of anything I am considering keeping. Again any decent camera is better than any phone camera. And my argument sounds dumb because it was meant to be. The point went WAAAAAY over your head.

Sent from my OnePlus 7T using Thebear Blue XDA Labs
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] beanpolebiker:
It most definitely is a software issue too. Or else these GCam ports on various devices would not make such big differences in the quality of output.

And if a nearly 600 USD device is budget for you, then you have lost touch with reality. Moreover, that 'any decent camera is better than a phone camera' argument is like saying any any kitchen knife is better than a Swiss army knife just because it cuts stuff better. I don't lug around my camera kit everywhere, and still capture memorable photos. It's liberating and highly recommended.

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
I have 50$ cameras that beat out any and all cell cameras... Nobody is saying pull out your pro rig but to catch memorable moments that you think are going to be of any use outside of posting on Facebook or Twitter is ridiculous. The gcam ports are modified to "work" on other devices. Without the hardware in your device, I don't care what software you use, you will never get the results. And yes a 600$ phone is considered midrange, considering you could get a 250$ budget phone (Motorola G series) or a 1200$ (Samsung or Sony). So even with top tier features, our device is a midrange. I live in 2019 not 2010.

Thebear's 1+7T
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] KyleK29:
True, the Pixel 3/4 use the Sony IMX363 (2016). 7t uses the IMX586 (2018).

The thing about the IMX586 is that it is ultra-fine pixel pitch and is then supposed to run it through an algorithm to go from 48 to 12mp (going from 0.8µm pitch to 1.6µm effective). That extra step can lead to issues if it's not implemented correctly. I think there's room for improvement with software, but it won't be a drastic change. They likely went cheap on the optic side to shave a few pennies off the BoM.

I did some heads up comparisons between my Pixel 2XL and my OnePlus 7T .. shots snapped at same time, same angle (phones tied together), relative software settings. 7T had better exposure quality (didn't crush the dark or over expose the light), but 2XL had better fine detail and color. 7T looked "washed out" (stock camera app). Dark shots were another story, the 2XL struggled (granted, I don't have nightshot mode on that, so not a fair comparison) and the 7T got decent detail. The 2XL's fine detail sharpness almost looks like an ML edge sharpening filter when zoomed in.

If the sharpness can be tweaked and the colors improved, I think the 7T will be a good-enough camera.

Some reading material:

https://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/News/Press/201807/18-060E/

Good comparison of the sensor in different phones (where optics & software become the variables):

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
I'm not saying we can't get decent enough pics out of this device, my point being trying to squeeze a square peg through a round hole. I have an essential phone that was just plagued with camera issues from the start, once we got a decent enough gcam port, and user input for quality settings, the camera became 1000% better. To expect to get similar quality, functionality, and features out of a camera app not made for our device/ hardware, it took some great devs to get to the point of being a daily driving camera, and even still we were nowhere near what the pixel devices were capable of. Even as of the last few updates to the essential, the stock camera app had grown leaps from almost 2 years of garbage. For a phone camera the 7t isn't all that bad, a few updates and the stock app should get better. And eventually I am sure a gcam will be available that exceeds the limitations of the 7t, but to expect a perfect gcam on par with pixel 4 output is ridiculous. If a camera is the most important feature wanted on your phone, there are numerous comparable devices that sacrifice other things to include better camera parts. On the plus side, there are many different photo editing apps with many great tools to play with and edit your pics. Again though, I never understood if you want quality pics, especially of memorable events, important/ quality, or even just detailed photos, you will always be better off with a camera over your phone.

[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
If you go back a few comments, that was what I was discussing before someone felt the need to be insulting. So don't tell me what to do or where to go. The problem here is, people just don't want to listen and think some software updates will fix the problems our camera has with the gcam app, sorry but it will never be a fully functioning camera. No libraries, code changes, updates, etc will fix every issue. Gcam was not made for our device, completely different hardware which is needed to make the features work. So until you squeeze in the pixel's camera parts into our devices, make like a 13 year old with a playboy and beat it.

[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] DrG0nz0:
Hey guys!

So, long story short, I started having some ideas on how to hard-proof your NEX S without using any cover/case. After implementing this ( https://xdaforums.com/nex/accessories/ceramic-paint-coating-nex-s-t3901551 ) I started using my NEX S without any case or cover (only used it on the glass back).

2 weeks ago it slipped from my support in the moto at 140km/h and I thought I've lost it completely. After recovering it, it was working perfectly with only the metal rim around it heavily damaged and the glass back shattered (no problem with the cameras or the front screen). Again, no cover or case was in place at the time of the fall, so props to VIVO.

So I ordered another glass back from AliExpress for 10dolares ( https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32948791106.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.1a454c4dS17NTw ) and made the change.

P.S: I dipped the glass back in the ceramic paint again several times before applying if it worked the first time.... It already comes with double-sided tape to apply.

I've cut a little bit of the interior panel so now I can see the front camera mechanism going up and down (JerryRig everything on youtube).

Sorry for the poor image quality, but I couldn't use my phone to take those for obvious reasons :p

If anyone has any questions or different ideas for this still amazing phone please share, I don't plan on selling it anytime soon :good:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jorlin:
Read the full review here.

As you will notice quickly, this review is not aimed at the hardcore WM user. But it focuses nicely on what makes the HTC Diamond Touch the phone it actually is...

IMO, the conclusion really focuses on the casual customer and therefore it is not untrue.

However, most of you will probalby agree that WM 6.1 offers a far superior flexibility in customizing your phone the way you need it. In addition, the variety of third-party solutions is a big advantage for WM based phones like the HTC Touch Diamond, if you are just a bit more knowledgeable than the avarage customer... ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Dark Fire:
Yep. As with computers, Microsoft's main advantage over Apple is the huge amount of third-party solutions out there...

And, TBH, I think the Touch Diamond is a really the best crossover so far between the business and social functions that a phone should have. The iPhone may have style and speed, but it lacks productivity and customisability.

Anyway, I would agree that the Touch Diamond will outsell the Touch. It's the official successor, so it should attract all of the Touch users through its improvements and it should attract new users through its amazing (and very handy) features.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jorlin:

Quote: "...bringing more for the touchflo 3D into the interface and hopefully replace more of the Windows Mobile UI... Or they could just put Android on the phone." Ouch... XD
