I managed to get a new install working without messing about. I think the settings file had not bee accessed despite it being in the correct location. When I reinstalled, it picked up on it as I could tell there are lots of settings that were not there before (as you suggested). Time to start to mess with them!
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
You may have forgot to actually load the settings file as instructed in my post. It's not enough to copy the file to the corect location, you have to load it by double tapping the black area around the shutter button then choosing the config. Anyway I'm glad you got it working.

MTSL 8.3 GCam with XML

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Install the APK and move the XML to Internal storage\ConfigsSettings8.3

(NOT GCAM FOLDER)

- Load the XML by double tapping the black area around the shutter button inside the camera app

- If the camera freezes upon starting, just load the XML. If the camera crashes then quickly open the settings -> setting up the mod FIX -> Camera2 API -> YUV level HAL3

- Everything set up except front cam (which uses lib patcher from the currently active lens, since there's no restart option when switching)

- Natural photos with great details (not for those who like sharp and overprocessed look)

- AWB OFF, custom CCT with correction algorithm (until there is manual AWB, I will leave it like this)

- Sabre working perfectly

- You can use HDR+ On (ZSL) in most situations

Not sure if the aux lenses work on RUI 2.0 (probably not), or if the app works at all. Test it out yourself.

Aux cams still DON'T WORK on RUI 2.0
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
I've uploaded a new version of MTSL 8.3 GCam, along with an updated config.

This is a newer (public) V1 version, even though the previous one says V4 (it was a beta)

PLEASE ONLY USE THE COMBINATION OF APK AND XML PROVIDED IN THIS POST TO AVOID ANY ISSUES.

IF YOU TRY TO LOAD THE PREVIOUS XML WITH THIS NEW APK IT WILL CRASH.

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Install the APK and move the XML to /Internal storage/ConfigsSettings8.3/

(NOT GCAM FOLDER!); create the folder manually if it doesn't exist

- Load the XML by double-tapping the black area around the shutter button inside the camera app

- If the camera freezes upon launch just load the XML. If it crashes before you can load the config (happens usually on custom ROMs), then try to quickly open settings -> setting up the mod FIX -> Camera2 API -> YUV level HAL3

After that load the config as instructed.

v2.1 XML CHANGELOG:

- Added new CCT and adjusted colors

- Tuned sharpness, optimized noise reduction

- Improved dynamic range

- More contrast and depth in the shadows

- A lot of small improvements and fixes

NOTE: Lib patcher for the front cam still doesn't work even with the restart option.

Also, there seems to be an issue with RAW files where the zoomed-in shots with any lens aren't upscaled (the output RAW is not full resolution). Don't worry as the JPG exports just fine.

I've posted some photo samples as well.

Please report any issues that you may find and all feedback is welcome, as always.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Igoruss:
This is the best gcam version I have found so far, thank you. Photo quality is superb and natural.

One small issue I have that its pretty slow, changing modes takes a few seconds but otherwise, its very good.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
You're welcome buddy. Yeah it is a bit sluggish, but I think it makes up for it with its vast amount of tuning options.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] killersparrow:
Will this work alongside the previous version for comparison? (It is different to the one we discussed, recently, yes?)
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
If you're talking about PZD, then yes (if you downloaded it from my post here). They have a different package name, so they can be installed separately. Just pay attention that the comment you quoted right now is from the older version, find the newer one (MTSLCam_V1) below it, and use the appropriate xml from the same post (v2.1.xml)
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
PLEASE READ EVERYTHING

New MTSL version and config. The app itself doesn't bring important new things, but use it with this config to avoid any issues.

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Install the provided APK and move the XML to Internal storage\ConfigsSettings8.3

(NOT GCAM FOLDER)

- Create the folder if it doesn't exist

- Load the XML by double-tapping the black area around the shutter button inside the camera app

- If the camera freezes upon launch (black screen), just load the XML. If it crashes then either try to quickly open the settings before it crashes, or open the camera directly in video mode, then open settings -> setting up the mod FIX -> Camera2 API -> YUV level HAL3

A lot of small tweaks, too many to name all. Improved dynamic range, brighter shadows, better colors, a little sharper. Disabled RAW photos by default, but I've removed compression. DNG files will be 32MB, and if you need them, then just enable the option via the dropdown menu.

You can use ZSL (HDR+ On) most of the time and use HDR+ Extended in dark or difficult lighting conditions.

EDIT: I replaced the XML with a newer version. One setting was left over unchanged, so I corrected the mistake. It's to lower noise reduction by a notch, and it's a marginal difference. If you're happy with v3, just keep using it. Sorry about that.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
MTSL 8.3 v3 GCam with XML

Use only the combination of APK and XML provided in the same post, unless noted otherwise

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Install the provided APK and move the XML to Internal storage\ConfigsSettings8.3

(NOT GCAM FOLDER).

- Load the XML by double tapping the black area around the shutter button inside the camera app.

- If the camera freezes or crashes when opening, long press on the installed APK, select record video, and it will open the camera in video mode directly - then load the XML.

New XML: Activated a noise model for the main back lens and marginally increased sharpness. Shadows should now be cleaner (especially in HDR situations), and there is generally less noise in low light. Front cam fully tuned, it's sharper and brighter than before. Some other small tweaks.

MTSL v3 contains some fixes, most importantly the front lens lib patcher now works. Also includes my custom AWB presets for the Realme X2 Pro (for all lenses), but I've disabled it by default to my preference. If you want AWB ON, simply activate it by clicking on the AWB toggle in the viewfinder.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Igoruss:
Thank you, you are doing great job
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
You're welcome. Glad you like it, enjoy
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
Hello guys, here is the new version of the MTSL GCam v4.1. Also uploaded my config which is adapted for this version. No changelog for XML is necessary, as all the changes are minor. You can also get the APK on Celso website and read the full changelog there:

MTSL: MTSLCam_V4.1

Download MTSLCam_V4.1 by MTSL.

www.celsoazevedo.com

As before, don't mix different versions of APK and XML, because the camera may not work properly. If you're going to update to this MTSL v4.1 be sure to use the new XML as well. Always use the combination of APK and XML provided in the same post. Read the quoted post for full instructions and other details.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] mostafa_googo:
there is any changes in quality or noise from pervious version ??
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
Not really, only changes inside the app
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Isavar:
application closes when I switch to 4k video mode, everything else is amazing the quality is very good.

I would like to support your development by donating through paypal
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
4k doesn't work in most of the GCams unfortunately, hopefully there will be a fix in future versions.

I didn't make the app, I'm just making configs, but I've posted the link on the Celso website above, and it contains the donate link for the creator of the camera on the bottom of the post.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Elbadry:
is there anyway to replace the default photo app with another one ?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] _JoeD_:
I actually like the ports by BSG. I'm running the 8.1 stable version (red in this link) it doesn't even need a config file, is very quick and very stable, it does support all lenses. https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
Anything older than 8.3 mods is obsolete, since sabre merging doesn't work on those older versions, at least for our phone.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
You mean something like this?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Amirmohammad Rezaee:
Hello, Thank you very very much!! This app and config is prefect. Specially night mode and zoom, pretty good. Please cantinue and make it even better for this phone. Thanks
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
You're welcome 👍

I'll keep testing, but it seems there isn't much else to be improved when it comes the image quality with this tiny sensor. Dynamic range is one thing, but I actually don't want the surreal look, and it makes the quality worse.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Amirmohammad Rezaee:
Exactly
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
LMC 8.4 GCam - PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

It's based on Shamim's mod, and there are a lot of things added and fixed. It has a blue ring photo processing indicator around the gallery shortcut button. Long-pressing on the front camera switch opens the lib patcher, and long-pressing on the gallery button allows you to select the exposure time.

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Install the APK

- Configs are loaded by double-tapping the black area around the shutter button (location is Internal Storage\LMC8.4)

- If there are no configs, open the settings -> Config settings -> Import ready-made configs, and then a bunch of configs will appear. Among them is my own (Arcide-v1.3_LMC8.4.xml), but you can test and use whichever you want. However be advised that they are made for various different phones, and may not work properly or at all.

Arcide v1.3 config:

- Natural photos without overprocessing

- AWB is OFF (there is a toggle to enable it above the viewfinder, however AWB won't work as there is an incompatibility with the Contrast Black adjustment when it's not set to default)

- Selected 15 HDR frames by default, but there is a toggle above the viewfinder to change it between Auto/7/15/27

- Added LDR (low dynamic range switch) to the viewfinder for some moody shots

- There are also Leica and Pro modes (just a secondary lib patcher), however they aren't enabled by default

- No aux cams in RUI 2.0

- No 4K, 60 fps, or EIS for video

Comparison to MTSL

Pros:

- Cleaner most of the time (also better retains textures, especially in shadows)

- Better dynamic range

- Better RAW DNG quality

Cons:

- No front cam lib patcher, so selfies may be too soft or too dark at times

- There seem to be more artifacts with moving objects (it's something with all 8.4 mods)
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST FIRST

LMC 8.4 R4 update

For some reason it refused to upload the application on XDA. Here is the alternate link:

133.41 MB file on MEGA

mega.nz

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Install the APK

- Configs are loaded by double-tapping the black area around the shutter button (location is Internal Storage\LMC8.4)

- I've uploaded my new config in this post, but to get other preinstalled configs, open the settings -> Config settings -> Import ready-made configs, and then a bunch of XMLs will appear.

Arcide v1.4 config:

- Everything tuned including the front lens

- Natural photos without overprocessing

- Reduced sharpness and tuned noise reduction

- Tuned colors, fixed purple tint in the sky

- Other fixes and optimizations

- Improved ZSL, you can use it almost always for great quality

No aux cams in RUI 2.0.

No 4K, 60 fps, or EIS for video.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
Config for LMC 8.4 R4

APK is the same version as in previous post, no need to download again if you have it.

- Configs are loaded by double tapping the black area around the shutter button (location: Internal Storage\LMC8.4)

- Changed Tone and Gamma curve for all lenses

- Fixed the wrong address for Shasta BaseFrameSharpness Threshold

- Fixed issues with highlights on aux lenses

- Set contrast black to default on aux lenses (resolves AWB issue)

- Enabled portrait mode single photo output (dual output caused an issue with photo orientation)

- Increased sabre denoise control (should slightly help with artifacts on moving objects)

- No aux cams in RUI 2.0

- No 4K, 60 fps or EIS for video
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] one.akira:
The app keeps crashing when I use your 1.5 config when I press the 2x and 0.6 zoom, is that normal?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] one.akira:
Ahh my bad, since they don't work turning them off in the viewfinder won't change anything right?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Arcide:
Yes, you can freely turn the buttons off
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] madsu99:
Are there any GCam available for Android 13 that work with all three lenses? Thank you
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] weisdergeier:
Would also be interested in this. Just upgraded and pixelcam v2 which I used so far does not show aux cams anymore.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yerry:
Thanks for your settings, I think the exposure setting is a bit off with +2 ;)

Other than that, great!

One other remark, independant of the settings,

it is unfortunate that the resolution is wrong.

It is 13 MP instead of 16 MP.

(Preferable would be even 64 MP)
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] dNNr:
The resolution it's because of a port for other phones, and i using urnyx 1.7 only for selfies, because with the gw1 on this the selfie are a liittle bit off in colors.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Riffen87:
I think the Urnyx05-v1.4 is THE best right now, pretty mutch straight forward.

I tried the v.17 but it force closes when using the main.

And the PGMC7.2.0.14 gets a weird blue filter :/
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] natedogg20050:
64 mp

Maybe I'm not using the right setup. But for me this app is not usable, the default app is still way better.

And it does ! Many thanks to the developer. I have shot many 16mp photos with the 1.8 version and the stock app. There are more details, more colour and less distortion find in this gcam version.

Didn't test the video jet though.

Many many thanks
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MiszaMSA:
The overall quality of photos from Urnyx05 version is very good, but they lack in saturation. The lib patcher saturation option does nothing on my device. The photos are the same for 0 and 2.0 settings.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] narcisrm:
Go to Advanced Options -> Pixel AWB in HDR+ Enhaced and select IMX586. Photos will have higher saturation and look much better in general.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] auerbach:
Any other recommened settings ?

Thnx
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] narcisrm:
HDR+ Enhaced frames to High - 25 frames. This will make pictures look better in harsh light condition (too much light or low light) when you have the HDR+ Enhaced option activated, but it will take a little bit more time to take the picture, which means you will have to keep the phone steadier for a longer time.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] ManuBBXX:
Just trie,d but still, photos taken with those settings with gcam looks terribly washed out compared to stock camera.

Saturation is very not enough in comparison.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] auerbach:

aux camera

Is auxiliary camera working with any versioin of Urnyx05?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MiszaMSA:
Unfortunately I haven't seen any gcam with working aux cams. The app crashes if you try to switch the sensor.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] abdelmonem anwer:
Plz which gcam version works fine on x2 pro?

I tried alot but it keeps crashing.

Thx in advance.

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

It still crashes when I take a picture.?!!!
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Riffen87:
Download v1.9 from https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-urnyx05/

Make sure that HDR+ enhanced is on.

When you take a picture with HDR "off" and motion "on" it causes a crash.

(HDR off and motion "auto" works aswell)

If that dosent work im out of ideas, as it works for me.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] XellossMetallium:
I experenced the same crash, no metter what settings I combine. The only way to have it work is to disable motion photos, at least for me.

Yet I'm quite sure that it took a couple of photos with motion on when I first installed 1.9... strange.

For now, anyway, it seems the best version available for the Realme, except for color saturation settings, secondary cameras and motion photos all seems to work well.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] flughirsch:
I have installed v1.8 and it worked fine until I tried to switch to auxiliary cameras. Then the app crashed and I could not open GCam again. It was closed immediately. So I uninstalled v1.8 and installed v1.9. But same problem. I can't start it. It crashes immediately after starting. Okay, I reboot my device but the problem remains. Even v1.8 is not working anymore.

How can I let a GCam version work again after having the first crash? What have you done after a crash? Only factory reset helps?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MiszaMSA:
You need to clear the app data (App info -> Storage Usage -> Clear Data). It will start working again. Unfortunately aux cameras do not work on Realme X2 Pro, so use only the main sensor.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kulado:
Im using the latest 2.0 version.

Here is my config
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Leogansky:
Good evening.

I've just recently bought the Realme X2 Pro 128GB, and tried several GCams.

I've found a very stable one that has some flaws, but is the best so far for me.

Some limitations:

- doesn't shoot in 4K

- doesn't shoot in 60 fps, only 30

- doesn't do slow motion

Upsides:

- very stable and snappy, everything else seems to work just fine.

- allows saving portraits directly to "DCIM/Camera" instead of creating one subfolder per portrait.

GCam: PMGC_7.0.009_HDR_Version_V13.apk.

They do provide a config file for our phone: realme-x2-pro.xml.

I've tweaked it to my liking, here: leo-realme-x2-pro.xml.

NOTE: This one has a particularity: you have to save the config to "/GoogleCamera/ConfigsCamera".

Sharing this to contribute to this forum, that already helped my a lot ;)

Enjoy!

I have been using Urnyx05 version 1.4 for a month, with great results. Any version higher crashes for me after taking a HDR+ picture. Have there been any fixes for those crashes? Chinese ROM.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] flughirsch:
Thank you very much for sharing your xml. Do you create this xml by your own? What is different to the default xml of version 2.0?

[MENTION=4139959]Leogansky[/MENTION]

Have you compared this version V13 with Urnyx new version 2.0? If so what makes V13 better?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Leogansky:
The one I indicated doesn't seem to have issues with HDR+. I have the stock european ROM.

---------- Post added at 07:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

I don't think I have, will give it a try later on tonight.

In the meantime, I did manage to test out the latest release from Parrot043 (PMGC_7.2.014_Relesed_V1.apk), and it seems very stable from my preliminary tests.

- Still not recording in 4K, only FullHD@30fps

- Can't use the "Focus Tracking" option no more, video blows up

- Still no slow motion

- We seem to have lost the ability to export the XML configuration.

- We can now use Sabre, it blew up on 7.0

For now, this is the best one I've tested. I'll give it a go with GCam_7.2.010_Urnyx05-v2.0.apk later on.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] flughirsch:
Thank you so far.

Does the Parrot043 versions support auxiliary cameras?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Leogansky:
No, not that I'm aware.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Leogansky:
So, Umyx05 v2.0 vs Parrot043 7.0.009_V13 / 7.2.014_Released_V1

- Umyx is missing lens blur mode

- Umyx is missing google lens integration

- Umyx is missing Smartburst option

- Umyx is missing Antiband option

- Umyx does not allow to remove the useless "slow motion" mode

- Umyx does not have Pixel AWB HDR+ for GW1 sensor, only for IMX586

These where the main differences I've spotted.
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] brunocquevedo:
That's great. Thanks for that! Do you think there is a difference in quality as well?
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Leogansky:

Why is the pixel 4 XL awb looks bad in this version(and most version)? Is it the way it is or is it not compatible?

The main downside of Parrot version is that it takes 13MP photos while Urnyx does it in 16MP
[Realme X2 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Leogansky:
I didn't know that, that's a good point. Where did you get that information?

Currently I find Hypercam working best for X2Pro. It' based on Urnyx port, but has an AWB algorithm also for GW1 sensor
