[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] ThoroSOE:
Thanks for the work and the samples. Does flipping the camera for front facing images also work?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] jericho246:
Yes it does
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] ThoroSOE:
I just got the 7 Pro and tested it extensively with stock camera and this GCAM version. As a comparison I used my Pixel 3 also with an enhanced CGAM version. First I ran into some issues:

- HDR plus (not enhanced) is not working when the camera is in selfie mode. Full HDR plus does work. This means outside HDR plus enhanced images in HDR scenes have VERY badly overexposed parts and simply are unusable. Turn the camera back and everything is great. Sadly I do not like the look of HDR plus enhanced (night mode is also a workaround)

- In selfie mode the app does not recognize, that it has a full fledged flash. It only offers sefie light (lit up screen around the viewfinder).

- Colors in low light scenes are too muted. This goes especially for skin tones.

Apart from that the cameras perform very nice. Using night mode on the zoom lens even in better lighting conditions gives very good results. But overall it falls short of what even a Pixel 3 can deliver on its main camera. Sure, in perfect conditions the cameras are very capable - with GCAM and without. But Pixel is sooo much more consistant! Being able to consistantly getting better pictures of faces in low light (selfie or not) even when awkwardly taking selfies with the Pixel's main camera than with the Zenfones flip camera is a no go. I am honestly very saddened; I had high hopes.

(Just a disclaimer to not come across as someone too fixated on selfies: As this is the "killer feature" of this camera and its main gimmic, this was a focus of my testing.)
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] mickey36736:
One thing I noticed is that the front camera id 1 use ultra wide sensor with cropped resolution at 6.5 mp instead on main camera due to camera2 api. No idea why asus did this but this is the reason why the ultra wide lens doesn't perform as good as the main back camera.

Plus newer Gcam require a lot of individual tweaking by lib pacther settings. Once you try to play around with lib patcher. You realize how much headroom can improve photo quality to suit your tastes. It may not be as simple as the pixel because of different sensors setup but you can tweak as much as you like.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] cd993:
I'm finding there's a lot of noise in some lighting conditions on the gcam wide angle lens. Anyone else found this? I've tried tweaking all the denoise settings but can't seem to get rid of it. It's strangely in the outer edges of the shot. Also, such noise is present on stock wide angle too at times.

Though very interestingly, stock night mode used in the same shot with the wide angle pretty much eliminates it.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] ThoroSOE:
I also noticed the issue with getting only a 6.5 MP image when being on the main camera and switching to selfie mode. Very annoying. As a workaround I use a quick setting for the camera angle to just stay in normal mode but still turn the camera to the front. Full functionality for landscape orientation, but upside down for portrait orientation (good thing I very, very rarely take pictues in this orientation).

Any suggestions for lib patcher settings? Or even better: Do you know, where I can find documentation telling me, how strong an impact each setting has?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yedrimas:
Same issue here, I'm only getting a 6.5MP on portait mode instead of a 15.7MP

Any idea on how to fix that? The GCam has better processing but bug is annoying :-/

Edit: Indeed, on portait mode, the main sensor is not used, but the UltraWide is cropped as if it was the main one. Weird, any idea how to fix that ?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] deadlynounou:
You can set the main front camera ID = 7. It will use the main sensor for main selfie camera (64mpx)
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yedrimas:
I was manually selecting the 64MP, how do I do that ? I'm not rooted, I try to keep my phone clean for the moment.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] deadlynounou:
You do not need to be rooted. Just go under Wichaya's GCam mod /settings/advanced settings/aux sensors / then activate every sensor except the 5th.

Now go back one step and go to /manual set camera ids/ ...

There you should set the ids for the back :

- main = 0

- tele = 3

- wide = 2

- camera 4 (64mpx) = 6

For the front :

- main = 7 (it will use the 64mp )

- tele = 5

- wide = 4

- camera 4 = 1 ( it is the default setting used by every third party app )

I took the information from this gcam mod dev on Zentalk.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] crumble6:
Do you have a link to the thread on Zentalk? I can't find it.

Thanks
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] deadlynounou:
You can look into the zenfone 7 series zentalk forum there is a thread talking about heavy files in google camera mod. I do not remember the exact title.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yedrimas:
Also, any idea on how to fix the distortion on the ultra-wide ?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] cd993:
I know what you mean by this....

Here's the xml I'm currently using (all credits to Wichaya - not widely shared I don't think) which works nice enough.

I also find distortion/pixelation on the stock cam wide angle shots at times.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yedrimas:
Thanks! I've tried, there is still way more (and too much) distortion compared to the stock one, this is sad because the Gcam is better in everypoint (but filming)
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] cd993:
Agreed. It can be hit and miss sometimes. I find myself generally taking a shot with gcam and stock just to see which is better!

If anyone has any recommendations on gcam verison and/or xml settings, I'm all ears....!
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] jericho246:
I'm currently on the xml you posted, downloaded it from the celsozevedo site a few days ago. I still find stock cam better in most cases. I'm not trying to **** on anyone's work, in fact I'm quite amazed that the GCam app doesn't even crash (which used to happen a lot on my previous phones) and the only problem is picture quality. It's probably gonna take some time to fine-tune the GCam mod for the Zenfone 7 series. That's fine, but I simply wish ASUS released this phone worldwide. But they didn't, for whatever reason, and our community is smaller than it should be, because of that. :( Read a lot of comments from people in the US being disappointed by the unavailability of the Zenfone 7 in their country. :(
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] N4KA:
Will it be launched at some point? India?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] jericho246:
No idea to be honest. Last year the Zenfone 6 was released in India as the "ASUS 6z" some time after the launch in other regions. Perhaps it'll be the same this year. I don't think there's any official info on that, though.

[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] mickey36736:
LibPatcher is a custom library where you can set all the settings to your liking. Users need to find the best values for their hardware. Different camera sensors need different values. Each user also has different preference. Some like more detailed/noisy images while others like smooth pictures.

Remember that different Mods may have different settings.

Radius Temporal: (Changes the graininess of the image by affecting noise, the higher the image is more blurry and less noise, the lower the more noisy, but more detail.)

Tone Curve: (Adjust the Dark Points, White Point, Shadows, Highlights. Recommended to enable it and leave default values.)

Sharpness: (Allows you to control the image sharpness. Increase it for lowlight shots and decrease it for Selfies. THIS IS PERSONAL PREFERENCE, ADJUST IT TO YOUR NEEDS)

Luma denoise: (Controls the "grain" on the images that is caused by high ISO. Decrease it to have more details at the cost of high noise or increase it if the noise is unacceptable to you)

Chroma Denoise: (Controls the color stains. Usually there's no need to adjust it, as it wouldn't lead to more quality but you can increase it a bit if you see color stains in the dark. Too high chroma denoise can cause a decrease in saturation. Also chroma is known as color noise)

Luminance Noise Reduction: (Controls the “grain” in images caused by high ISO. Decrease it to get more detail at the expense of high noise, or increase it if the noise is unacceptable to you)

Color Noise Reduction: (Controls color spots. There is usually no need to adjust it as this will not improve the quality, but you can increase it slightly if you see colored spots in the dark. Too much chroma noise can cause a decrease in saturation. Also known as color noise)

Contrast: (Allows you to control the image contrast. Increase it if you want darker shadows and decrease to make it brighter. THIS IS PERSONAL PREFERENCE, ADJUST IT TO YOUR NEEDS)

Saturation: (Allows you to control the image saturation. Increase it if you want richer colours in the photos. THIS IS PERSONAL PREFERENCE, ADJUST IT TO YOUR NEEDS)

Wavelet Luma Denoise Levels (Factors of Global)

Level 1 Fine Details (Very slightly changes the photo, mildly smoothing small elements)

Level 2 Rough Surfaces (Alters image seriously, smoothing grain)

Level 3 Edges (Change almost nothing. Smoothing slightly edges)

Level 4 Smooth Surfaces (Change picture drastically, making it posterized, smoothing large areas of the same color)

Wavelet Chroma Denoise Levels (Factors of Global) (Some mod called as Spatial)

Level 1 Fine Details (Fine textures, but same applies to rough details)

Level 2 Rough Surfaces (Fine textures, but same applies to rough details)

Level 3 Edges (Edges are mainly defined by the contrast between one object and another)

Level 4 Smooth Surfaces (Smooth surfaces are basically mostly uniform areas in the image. Like a wallpaper with not much fine details.)

I've loaded the Wichaya XML config and the wide angle cam is still very distorted?

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

I had to set tele to 3 but wide to 2

Thanks for that. I've also disabled the 64mp icon as it causes a force close when selected and you can't re-open the camera app unless you press and hold the icon and select one of the shortcuts eg try night sight.

Is there a camera ID for selfie where the main sensor is used in 16mp instead of 64mp?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] CVonV:
I'd like to know this too. I tried all IDs but it seems like only 7 works. I'd rather the pixel binned 16mp instead of the full 64mp sensor.

PS I had to set Back Camera 4 to "6" in order for slow motion to work with the 64mp camera. It's not proper slow mo though. Anybody know how to enable >= 120fps in gcam? Stock cam is good but slow mo doesn't have sound it seems where as in gcam it does.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] jx9919:
How bad is the distortion on ultra wide angle camera on Gcam? I personally don't mind some distortion as long as it has better colors and detail. Does anyone mind posting a sample Gcam UWA photo?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] CVonV:
Here you go. Taken from the same position. Gcam actually takes a wider fov. If you zoom in with gcam to have the same fov it shouldn't have distortion then.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] jx9919:
thx a lot. it is actually not bad. i can always apply correction later.

[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] CVonV:
Thanks!

May I ask what this is?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] IwoTT:
From celsoazevedo.com:

Sabre is a merge method created by Google that improves photo quality on some modes. Some call it "super resolution" because of the sharpness/detail improvements. It's used by Google for Night Sight, but some GCam mods also use it for zoomed photos and HDR+ Enhanced. Works with the RAW10 format (other RAW formats may result in black photos).

Sometimes Sabre isn't supported by all cameras sensors (eg: non-Sony sensors) and Google Camera will crash after taking a picture. In this case, the only solution is to disable Sabre (only available on some mods) and restart the app.

Sono un nuovo possessore di Z7Pro.come posso migliorare gli scatti con Gcam? Ho letto che bisogna modificare l'IDma non riesco. Le foto con la cam stabilizzata hanno risoluzione 16mp e non 64, why?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] CVonV:
Was just browsing on the Zentalk forums and read this thread about the selfie cam in social media apps. It details that the wide angle lens is what is used by these apps and not the main camera. This isn't a problem with photos but for videos (particularly for video calls like skype, facebook messenger, live streaming etc) this is a huge problem. An Asus rep/mod in that thread said there's nothing that can be done as they've made the decision based on the main camera sensor generating too much heat when taking videos. However, if that was true then why can you use it for video in rear camera mode (and hence circumvent this limitation albeit having an upside down image)?

Asus should at least give the option to the user as to which camera to set as the default front cam much like how you can edit the camera ids here on gcam. Quite a disappointing oversight from Asus imo. Perhaps one of the brilliant devs out there can somehow delve into the build/rom and change the default front cam setting?

I am using zenfone 7 with the Gcam 7.3, and I found out there's some flashes during taking photo. However the stock camera app doesn't have the flashes, is there anyway to solve the issue?

Edit: I use the config file provided by wichaya but it persist, also the flashes came from the room light, does it mean that Gcam is too sensitive on light flashing?
