[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
New version of LMC R12 was released on telegram, however I noticed Night Sight will crash no matter what, so we better stick with the previous release.

And speaking of night sight.

This took some time, but I managed to put most of the settings from beserker15's XML into the config where Night Sight doesn't crash.

- Noise models for each camera are included

- Fine-tuned settings for Main, Tele, Super Tele cameras from beserker15's config are now included

- NightSight, Auto Night Sight, Astro, HDR+, HDR+ Enhanced should all work

- and yes, Leica mode still has to be enabled

Now the only problem with LMC R12 is that using the ISO/Exposure slider will cause a crash, so I removed the slider from the viewfinder. "R12Fix1" fixes this, but like I said it breaks other things such as Night Sight on S22U

Aside from the new config, which is !!for LMC R12!! (don't try import in other ports because it simply won't work) I'm also attaching a custom lib by Arcide that uses merge 0 (wiener filter) so it works well on Exynos phones. You can give it a try.

Libs are placed in /LMC8.4/libs (the file that I attached is a .zip file, and inside is a .so file. It's the .so file that goes into the libs folder, not the zip)

Then open LMC, go to settings, photo processing, scroll down a bit, tap on library, pick "Custom Lib from Dir" and then finally in Lib from Dir, choose the Arcide lib (defaultmerge).

Important note: sometimes importing a xml config doesn't work, and you are still using the config you were previously on, without knowing! So when importing a new config, it's best to do it twice, just in case.

I guess R12 is the best for the Exynos S22U. As long as you don't use video or selfie, it should work well.

When I try to open up gcam 8.4 lmc I se the camera pictures and the it force closes directly. How to solve that?

I have galaxy s22 ultra 12 Gib 256 GB exonos
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
First make sure you moved the LMC-R12-ExyS22U.xml file to the LMC8.4 folder, at the root of storage.

Next, you need to double-tap on the empty space next to the shutter button. A dialog will pop up asking you to choose the config to import. Pick the LMC-R12-ExyS22U and import. That should be it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ekka1337:
When I try to install the LMC8.4_R12_Samsung.apk

I get it want to upgrade but I doesn't even has it installed. But I can install all other LMC apks but not the samsung.

Any solution to this ?

Are this Gona replace the original camera app is this why it will try to upgrade it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Monipeev:
Every build that i install on LCM or other, give me black camera display or force close.

Where am I wrong?

I clean cache and data, uninstall camera app, install again, move config files, and result is the same.

Without config files, result the same.

I'm missing something small but important.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
no it only replaces Samsung's Ruler app. I think it's called Samsung Quick Measure. Uninstall that, and then try to install the LMC8.4

Also if you already have LMC8.4 R11 installed, uninstall it too because you won't be able to install the newer one.

are you installing the LMC8.4_R12_Samsung.apk one? Because Snapcam and the other ones won't work on Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Monipeev:
Yes, exactly LMC.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
Ah, I think I know what you were missing. You moved the config file to the folder but you didn't import it in the app, right? Yeah you gotta import it in the LMC app.

Open LMC, double tap on the empty black space next to the shutter button and choose the LMC-R12-ExyS22U.xml config and tap on import. Do it twice in case it doesn't work the first time, sometimes the importing of config files can bug out.

short vid here so you can see what it's supposed to look like:
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Monipeev:
O yes, that's my problem.

Now i see what's missing. :-)

Thank you very much again for your help.

In LMC R13, Night Sight has been fixed on our device. You can download R13 here

Xml config is attached to this post.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sardelisp:
I own an S22 ultra exynos model and download r13 and xml. All ok after setting up. My front camera doesn't work. Why?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] x3rud:
hi, I've tried a lot of versions of every possible gcam with every xml i could find but i can't seem to find one that allows me to use the astrophotography mode, is there something I'm doing wrong? it crashes at 56sec every time
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kimo9hero:
You have found a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ekblad:
I tried both R11 and R13. Astrophotography crashes the app a few seconds after the timer starts. Night Sight which is 4-5 seconds works fine.

The Astro was giving me 7 seconds and crashed after a couple had passed.

Any ideas on that? I wanted to test the astrophotography on Gcam as seems to be terrible on the stock app. ( too much noise or too much light getting through the lens)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] x3rud:
nope I've tried other 4 versions and xml in the meanwhile but nothing worked, they either suck all together or don't have the astrophotography
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] arsenal74:
So what is the best option on Exynos (non-Ultra) LMC or AGC?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Rapier:
As I read here some posts before, Samsung has blocked front camera for third party apps like GCam...was SD before, now it's Exynos's turn. Probably because of the new 40 MP selfie camera on S22...😀
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] mainstreamer:
Marvelous! Thanks allot. Video is not working yet though? Anyone else got it working?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Wing_Zero85:
Everyone here understands that until we will not get rid of forced Leica mode, the gcam is completely unusable? Hope so.

Leica mode has terrible color reproduction and vignetting, is nothing more than a silly Instagram filter, ruining all of our photos.

If someone found how to fix that, please let us know...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kimo9hero:
What gcam has astromode work?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
So leica mode is responsible for the vignetting .. I tied to change all the parametres and couldnt get rid of it.. Then i get back to 8.1
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ZedTen:
Can I please know which 8.1 version of GCam are you using? And which XML are you using it with? Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Xavi1163:
Search vignetting in color setting
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] djixon:
I have the same problem as you with the bands. Have you managed to solve it? How?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Norbertus20:
Hello,

After a long time of testing various options, I finally found a stable build for my exynos s22u 512/12.

With one little problem. After taking the photo, I can see its thumbnail to the right of the shutter (gallery) but after clicking to preview the photo, it crashes me from the application.

Do you have any idea for this?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Rodri96:
Where can I found the .apk and .xml and where must I put the .xml file? Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] deboopi2:
LDR disabled and SHADE enabled or LDR and SHADE enabled together and the rainbow effect disappears.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dayuser:

Latest agc from bigkaka v9.2 has exynos support!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] deboopi2:
Ok this works, how to get the 3x and 10x zoom?, if I select them in the lens setting they still don't show up
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
Which build and version are you on?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] deboopi2:
I just downloaded and installed AGC8.4.300_V9.2
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Norbertus20:
Which one do You download and instal ?

Clear apk / snap / scan or / ruler ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
Me too. Any configs? Both tele are black on my exynos ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] deboopi2:
this one
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] deboopi2:
the first one AGC8.4.300_V9.2.apk
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
you have to change viewfinder format to "PRIVATE" on BOTH teles:

ruler or scan3d are recommended for Samsung, otherwise you won't be able to use tele lenses.

config for AGC v9.2

originally made by beserker15 in the GCam snapdragon thread. I made it compatible with Exynos.

there are 2 profiles, merge 3 sharp and merge 3 soft.

"Sharp means more detail and sharpness but also more noise. Smooth means more natural looking and less noise/detail."

in the original config there were also two merge 1 profiles, but since merge 1 (sabre) doesn't work correctly on Exynos, I simply hid those profiles so they don't show up.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
It was ruler package. But with newly posted config it started to function, great!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
How you do it, what are basic steps?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
a lot of trial and error because I'm not an expert. But mainly, what I had to do was enable "Fix RAW16 merge" in advanced settings, because taking pictures without this fix, merge3 method (spatial RGB) will cause crashing.

In previous versions it was much more annoying to get it to work on Exynos, but thankfully BigKaka (AGC developer) , fixed a lot of things, so it should mostly work "out of the box".
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
Ultrawide lens is crashing for me, 3 others works great.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
ah crap. Forgot to enable the raw16 merge fix for the ultrawide.

^ this should work fine now.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
Hi, thank You. Now it works but uw colors are weird, green black.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
I changed the HDR+ model to Pixel 6 Pro (Raven) and now the colors on the ultra wide are normal. Pixel 5 model was the problem. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
Great, thank You again, now it works awesome. I love fine details and grain in this mod. Will check in low light later evening.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
Is there any settings to get rid of the rainbow effect in midle and low light situations (stock-gcam)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
Hi, i noticed problems with moving objects in latest AGC 8.4 v9.2 on Exynos with config posted here today. See picture. Is it something we can fix in config?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
Advance -> shabre motion fix. Try some different value.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
It does not help 😞
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dayuser:
Is this taken with HDR+ enhanced?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
In both modes same effect.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Mel17:
For some reason only the ultra wide is working for me. Am I doing something wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Mel17:
I tried with the scan3d version and it woks. Thanks for the config.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Mel17:
Is there a way to get rid of the blue circles in AGC? There're especially evident in low light scenes.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
I ask some post before about the same problem but nobody gave any solution . I search almost all settings but couldnt manage to find a solution . Now i am back to shamim version and try to play with the settings . At least i dont have this rainbow effect .
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kimo9hero:
Is there a gcam/config that makes work astromode?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] krishnandb:
Hey Andreas, I tried a few options from the thread and only shamim v20 samsung apk and your configuration works well for me. Thanks for that!

I have a few minor issues though:

1. HDR+ works really nice for all lenses except 10x. There's quite some noise in 10x.

2. HDR+ enhanced introduces rainbow clipping (blue circles) in low light scenes.

3. Night sight takes > 5 seconds and doesn't seem to work that well since normal shot HDR+ images seem better than this.

Have you found a solution for these issues with shamim v20? If you're using some other apk and config that works well for now, do you mind sharing? 🙂
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
In shamim version i couldnt find a solution about the rainbow clipping so i move to lmc v12 . The problem is with colour . All the versions of gcam, in order to work with our device , must be enable the "leica" mode or else the picture is corrupted. The leica mode put something like yellowish and soft vignette filter on top of the picture that cannot be disabled. I try to experiment with the colour settings to get better colours (for me at least). You can try and experiment with my xml . I think it has good balance between low noise and detail . But im still no pleased with the colours .

*try both xml, i think the second is better
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] doum89:
I Follow. I installed the GCam just to use astrophotography. I came from a OnePlus 7 Pro and GCam worked flawlessly there.

I notice that in my s22 ultra the shutter lag doesn't last more than 2 seconds and of course all the pictures are dark and no stars at all. Any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
In latest Shamim versions i found setting "HDR frames settings" under "Additional". There you can adjust frame count for night mode also. 12 frames gives me 4 sec expo time, 10 - 3 sec.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] LinardsL:
I can share my config for Shamim Gcam.

It's not perfect, but we can improve it together :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] doum89:
Hello, thank you for your answer. I confirm I got Shamim version and put 500 HDR frames on night photos. It takes about 54 seconds to take a picture (an average time that I was used to have on OnePlus 7 Pro) but after 4/5 seconds it stops to acquire the picture. I even remember that besides the shutter lag, during the shot, the camera said It was capturing more light and balancing everything. I this this kind of warns are not present here. Hope the final result will be the same
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] JohnTheFarm3r:
This thing with Astro fails exactly the same on multiple different builds/configs.

After 4 seconds, it crashes.

What I figured out is on BGS, If I set the Shutter speed to max 3 seconds, it's fine, but If I set it to 4S or even more, it just never ends doing the photo, it sits in the end at 0:00 seconds and still "capturing", but nothing changes even 10 minutes later. And I'm trying to run the lowest ISO possible, so sometimes 3s of exposure is not enough. Pictures on long exposure are already very noisy, raising the ISO makes it even worse.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] doum89:
I'm not a programmer but I hope someone will show up with a solution. Taking those incredibile pictures with just one click is really awesome. Samsung camera is very powerful but not everyone is a pro
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] BoneXDA:
Any apk and xml for

S22/S22+ Exynos

with properly working 3 back lenses and photoshpere?

The one I use installed in May a 8.1.101 version of whatever source with some settings made so main and ultrawide takes perfect photos during that day. Night can be problematic, photosphere doesn't work nor 3x cam sincs its not an S22 optimized version.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
I am using shamim v43. It is stable , i am using it with zsl not hdr(enhanced). Except the dynamic range the over all picture is more natural ( color and noise reduction ) if you want i can send you the xml .
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Mariuszuzd:
could you please upload it here ? I also would like to test it
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] falc0ner:
Hi, could you share your xml for V43 pls? btw, didn't you try the latest Shamim's 8.7.250 V1?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
8.4 is better in many ways, it has less bugs. I think agc by bigkaka work a little better than shamim so for now i use agc v9.2 (didnt try v9.4). The noise modeler seems to work better . Here is the xml for agc v9.2 (delete the ".txt" extension after download )
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] falc0ner:
Thanks, I heard agc is quite good on exinos (currently using the old version of Shamim's which is sometimes not good), will try it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
If you try my xml with agc and its a little dark for your taste just increase exposure compesantion from lens settings . Put it to -0.3 or -0.5 (i have it to -1.7)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Andrey222:
What kind of camera are you using now?

Have you tried mgc_8.7.250?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] andreasarxon:
I was not able to use any camera above 8.4 properly . I think agc 8.4 is the best for exynos ..

Hi everyone,

It's my adaptation to s22u exynos of my config for s23 series from here:

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] JavaSabr:
I tested topshot on my s23u and I don't see any profit from it... even when I tested how it works on pixel 6 pro from my friend
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] användare:
For me, this appears to work fine so far:

Phone: S22U Exynos

GCam variant: GCAM_8.4.400.42.XX_SHAMIM_V13_SAMSUNG_PACKAGE.apk

This seems stable and all, but while the UW and the two tele lenses work fine, the 108mp (main camera) for some reason stays black.

To fix that:

1. Settings 》Advanced 》Model interface 》"Pixel 2XL" on all

2. Settings 》Advanced 》Camera 2api settings 》Viewfinder format 》"PRIVATE"

3. Settings 》Advanced 》Camera 2api settings 》Hardware level 》"HARDWARE LEVEL 3"

Additional tweak in case the sensor selector looks odd:

4. Settings 》Additional settings 》Auxiliary Cameras 》Name for Camera Modules 》

Main: "1x"

Telephoto lens: "3x"

Ultrawide lens: "0.6x"

ID4 lens: "10x"

Guess that's it. Just got it to work with all lenses, and no crashes yet, but I have no idea of picture quality "in the field" as I'm indoors late at night now.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] can_85:
I did only additional tweaks because my cameras were working at start.

Ome more thing, if photos are coming out with "rainbow" effect, use the button on bottom left side, called SHADE.

Photospheres are not working, even with fixes of main camera 😔

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Bill720:
I'm still not understanding the rationale behind this not being posted in the original S22 Ultra Exynos Google Camera thread. There is some mention of that thread being devoted to other devices, but I don't see much of that in a brief analysis of the last couple of pages. If there are such posts, they really shouldn't be there in the first place. Is there a specific reason why this can't just be there?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ish4d0w123:
There are. If those could be cleaned up, and the topic name renamed to resemble what your link does (S22 Ultra Exynos Google Camera thread) instead of vaguely saying "GCam for Exynos" (because this thread is labeled like that), then this could be merged into there, yes.

Can you clean up the unrelated post in that thread and rename the thread to bear the device name please?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Bill720:
In thumbing through the first half of the thread, I'm not seeing that much in the way of off-topic content. If such a situation arises where folks start actively using it as a "catch-all" for Google Camera discussion on other devices, we can cross that bridge when we get there, but as it stands, I don't see much to suggest that this is what it is currently representing. Are there more than a small minority of specific examples of actual derailment across its 100+ postings? If not, I'm having a hard time justifying not merging the threads, given that they are both currently for the exact same device, same software, and ostensibly the same purpose.

8/13 Update: Given that I've seen no concrete evidence to the contrary, I've merged a duplicate thread covering the same topic back into the original.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ish4d0w123:
Thank you for sorting the thread issue, I agree with the move now.

But the work is not done yet. Please rename the topic to make sure it bears the name "S22 Ultra". I know it's a sub-thread of the S22 Ultra forum category but this isn't evident to everyone and since the snapdragon counter-thread includes S22 Ultra in the topic title, this one should include it too.

I mean , it shouldn't be vaguely called "GCam for Exynos". You made it clear to me it isn't just for any Exynos but for S22 Ultra Exynos. So it should say exactly that.

Thank you. See the screenshot please. I'm allowing the invite others option so you csn show it to your team. I hope I make a valid claim, I just want the Exynos variant to be treated equally as the Snapdragon because as per numbers, the Exynos is more popular (popular as if more numerous, read: more units exists as it is sold in the whole Europe, Japan, China, Asia, practically everywhere except the US)

By popular I don't mean it to be any better. It's not. It's just different for GCam development.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Mariuszuzd:
In general that version is working fine except the night sight, any option or suggestions how to make it work ?
