[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Here's the best GCam+config combo I've found. Extremely fast, beautiful photos, beautiful stabilized videos, best I've seen. Unfortunately I don't know who is the author of the xml, but it was sent here before and I just tweaked things like 3rd party gallery or the grid...

PS. I also used ArrowOS 12.1 and recommend it for everyone as it's the best ROM too, OTA updates and great battery.

So does anyone have macro working on recent LOS 19.1? I used to use BSG_8.1.101_PV4 (posted here) with BSG_ONE_PV4.xml and everything (*everything*) worked perfectly on LOS a couple of months ago. All lenses, videos, stabilization, etc. Then I tried the Xiaomi.eu ROM for a while (not bad, but I prefer LOS), came back to LOS... and now macro does not work in any GCam I tried. Just black.

Greetings. The other day I decided to plunge into this world of opensours and installed LineageOS for myself. The OS seems perfect to me, and I've set up almost everything for myself as I dreamed, but Gcam doesn't work for me... Perhaps someone has a solution? LineageOS and Magisk are the latest versions.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Master One:
To quote the info from the LOS thread:

I'm goint to try LibreMobileOS next, which is likely facing the same issue

Does anybody have any other GCam + Config recommendations for LOS and its derivatives?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] pnin:
There are so many floating around with pretty much undetermined overall quality that I tend to keep several installed at any one time -- and to the best of my experience none compares even remotely to the original MIUI, so I have no recommends.

OpenCamera has been my go to for reliability, cause it just works.

FYI, dirty flashed my device to LMODroid 20230107 with no issues.

Is there s can such uses all lenses by hardware and not zoom digitally?

Fellow X3 NFC users, what new version/xml have you been using recently?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Noter2017:
The newest isn't necessarily the best. I have been using Aspen Cam for 18 months now, I think.

I haven't found a GCam yet that has a) better picture quality and b) good video stabilization

This doesn't seem to have secondary lens support (wide, macro) 🤔
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Noter2017:
Yep, that's the only downside of this mod. I don't really use them, so I can live with that limitation.

If you use the secondary lenses often, try MTSL:

Mod Edit: Link Removed

I don't remember why MTSL was my second choice only but it was either because video stabilization is worse than Aspen or indoor photos with artificial light was giving weird colors

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Master One:
Finding a proper GCam + config combo turns out to be quite tricky, which is why I hope that someone with more time at hands can have a look and report back here.

From the LOS thread:

So far I have tried my previous favorite (NGCam v7.4.104-v2.0) that I have in use on ArrowOS 11 (last version with MIUI vendor), but it crashes as was to be expected due to the camera service as mentioned above.

I have also tried UltraCVM (v8.1 from the link above and v8.4.300.10u_ucvm from the GCam Hub) which worked with the provided config file, but unfortunately it does not seem to support a 3rd party gallery, I could not find out how to change camera lenses, and at one point while playing around with it, it just crashed.

So in the end I really would like to have a camera app that supports slow motion and time lapse video, 3rd party gallery, all the available lenses and runs stable.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] rei6765:
Hi everyone, I'm new to this but I really love the gcam mod , and all the devs that work hard on this.

I like to ask if anyone can recommend me any gcam for video quality, I'm using the latest gcam's from BSG as the are good out of the box with the xml file that comes with it,I would love some recommendations on xml files/gcam by other devs.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Noter2017:
I've been using Aspen GCam ever since I installed a custom ROM on my Poco.

Picture quality is great. Video is good too and image stabilization for videos works really well.

What doesn't work is micro and wide lenses but I use them once a month maybe and have another GCam on my phone for that case. The xml file goes into /ConfigsSettings8/

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] rei6765:
thanks, the Gcam is great it did fix the problem I have with BSG which is white balance and the video quality looks more sharp and close to real life colors which is what I was aiming for.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
Oh wow, I didn't expect it would be so difficult to find a gcam (that actually works without crashing or missing too many options) after upgrading X3 NFC to LineageOS 20!

I would have been much easier if I stayed on LOS 18.1, but I had to upgrade, because it had some issue with GPS on some app.

So far, I confirm that MGC_8.7.250_A11_V15a_snap is working fairly well.

*I could not use the config file from there, because then screen goes black and I could not take slow motion.

I wonder if there is any other better option...

Trust me on this, I have already spent a lot of time trying to find one.

So which config are you using then?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
Thanks man.

The thing is I'm not using Magisk... so these modules can't be my option :(
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
No configs used. But so far, it gets things done well for me.

Tried the config but it gave me black screen when I switched to Slow Motion, that I had to remove it.

Didn't try other configs, because I've already spent like half a day just to trying to find the right apk LOL
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Master One:
Yes, that's extremely cumbersome, trying to find the right GCam and config.

Since I'm not using Gapps, I need a Gcam with support for 3rd party gallery, and of course one or more suitable config files (like I still have on my good old ArrowOS 11 installation with NGcam 7.3).
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
Same situation here, no gapps ever, and yet to find one that properly works on 3rd party gallery app
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] temporarium:
Gcam mentioned in that post doesn't need Magisk, and can use third-party gallery.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
Thanks again.

I've tried the one (BSG_8.1.101_PV4.apk) but it doesn't seem to be working on Lineage 20 (such as wide lense, macro, slow motion and still can't open the gallery with it)

I'm not sure if I'm missing something...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] temporarium:
For the lenses, you may need to try with older firmware.v Search that thread. I'm on crDroid (which is based on LOS), and it works.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Master One:
That's BSG? Don't recall having it support this. But I haven't quite the oversight, v8.1 is quite old, isn't it? What the latest GCam that supports 3rd party gallery and has suitable configs for surya?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
Thanks for your reply again.

which version of cfDroid do you have?

Yep, sound like more extra steps needed to get it work.

That's why I'm currently settled with the one in my link (even though gallery isn't working)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] temporarium:
9.7

What do you mean "extra steps"? Only one switch in the gcam settings 🤔
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] XtraWater:
Kinda trash. Mo eat too load a config
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] unono:
Already tried that gcam, and apparently it doesn't work quite well on LOS 20 for whatever the reason it is (even though it's A13 just as yours).

Or maybe it's working for you, because you've had it since before A13?

Then if I end up re flashing older firmware, it will likely cause extra steps, because I used to have some problem like fingerprint stops working, crashing on LOS system setting etc when I had older firmware.

Macro lense is broken, right?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] zacha_81:
Can you elaborate on this? I have searched the thread and I found another user stating that you would have to use "a11 firmware". I assume there is a firmware component for the camera that gets updated at one point in time when you apply official updates and take the step to android 12, so you would have to go back to the latest android 11 first and update to LOS/crDroid from there on? Can you apply android 12/13 roms on that basis or are you stuck with Android 11 based roms in this case?

okay... to answer myself. yes this is indeed how it must be done.

- install MIUI latest Android 11 version via fastboot

- run through initial setup

- install twrp

- install crDroid

- factory reset, format data

- reboot

- install gcam 8.7 + config

is miniqueta supposed to be downloading xml, and get stuck downloading?

Is there an error msg saying that xml can not be loaded?

Why is there a warning that it s only for one plus 6/T?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] surferbyter:
Do you use adblocks? For example, I have to disable adguard to download xml.

The warning specifies that the developer tests the gcam on oneplus 6 / 6t and therefore only for those devices he gives assistance on any bugs.

i have expressvpn but it still wont download completely, it got a bit to stop the error msg

first gcam in which 16:9 is actually 12MP and not 8MP!!! (it uses the same resolution than native camera for 16:9)

xml swapping support is also nice, the configuration for "macro" is the one for WIDE angle (for those who want wide angle) in POCO X3. Idk how to get access to the macro camera (in other GCAMs the wide angle mode usually gives access to MACRO, swapped ids xP), but not likely using it :silly:

16:9 setting doesn't keep across XMLs tho, so I just copied the default ones (made by surfer) in 16:9 mode, I lose autoupdate but well :/

Thanks :D

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Picard20:
You called that Gcam a "Nikita Gcam 1.7 Asus library mod". Is the Gcam from your link any different from the one I can get directly from Nikita at https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1429/ and use your xml on it ? If it isn't, what are the differences, and will the xml work on both ?

I've been testing different Gcams for weeks now, just wanna find whats best for this phone.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] surferbyter:
The gcam is identical in operation, it only has a different library, the XML works in both gcam the crlsoazevddo one and the one with different libs. The only thing you have to check when using Celso with my xml is which library is set because if I remember correctly there are two or three in Celso, google and ngcam ...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Picard20:
I just checked. The Celso one uses google library. Is there a big difference in your "AS4U" library and Google and NGcam and how it works with the xml you provided ? Would be nice if we could add libraries, just like an xml. But I guess I'll give your library a try. Btw, is "AS4U" your thing, or something you just found and are sharing ?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Black_ice_Spain:
I tried but 16:9 is still "low" resolution, can you control the resolution from the library, or tell me how to adjust :P ? I tried tweaking the xml with no luck.

I'm using the one you linked (miniquita) because 16:9 photos use 4624x2604 resolution (aka 12MP) while all other gcams use lower resolution for 16:9 (8MP, aka 4k) <-- 12MP is what the native camera app uses
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] yanikan:
Why would you ever shoot in 16:9 and not in navite to sensor 4:3 ratio?.If you need 16:9 later just crop it and you will have better resolution.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Black_ice_Spain:
the same reason there's an option for it :silly:, because cropping is extra work (and quite time-consuming from my experience). I can use auto-zoom galleries like piktures, but then If i send the photos to someone else, they don't see it "cropped"

and 99% of the times I look at the photos in phones (or TVs), which are 16:9 (or 21:9, but basically 4:3 will just waste 50% of the screen)

16:9 is the norm for me, 4:3 would likely be the exception.

of course I can live with 8MP (actually 12 in Miniqueta), but if the best one is possible (aka 12mp+ custom libs) ... y not

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Themes, Apps, and Mods] Picard20:
After experimenting with surferbyter's xml and asus lib mod of nikitia gcam, and stock nikita and ulryx gcam, I can with certainty say the stock gcams provide more realistic pictures, both front and selfie.

Surfers mods introduce just too much post processing into the image, to the point that when you zoom in, for example picture of distant cars, they look almost like cartoons, and not like real cars. Anyone who doubts my words, just try a selfie with that mod, vs any working stock gcam, and you will see what I mean. Even with Face Retouching set to Natural, thats just waay tooo much post processing and sharpening going on, to the point that pics look very unnatural.

Here is a picture taken from a surfers asus lib and xml mod:

https://photos.app.goo.gl/9kEHKZjs4ASTLQMW7

Same view, but with stock Nikita 7.4 v1.7 :

https://photos.app.goo.gl/JzBDhwbc4aaTKhZy8

Dont use any xml whatsoever. What you saw above was stock Nikita Gcam. Urnyx produces very similar results, although I'll stick with NGcam and experiment more, as it has much more options to tinker with.

Will also try some xmls, namely Poco X2, as it has a sensor very similar to this one (imx 686, vs 682 on poco x3). Asus ROG 3 also uses the 686 and will also give it a try.

Ill experiment and see what I find works best.

It is a matter of choice and your visual taste ... Maybe many prefer XML because as soon as they open the photos they can take on their device they are amazed at the detail they give ... Of course you can opt for clean gcam ...

Besides ... Look at the compare below between the two photos posted by you ... Sara post processing but with that you read all the details and you don't see mixed stuff...
