I'm with you! Wanna buy this smartphone but the fact that it's not have Google camera ported yet stops me from buying.

Hi! I'd like to get Google Camera app with HDR+ on my Xiaomi Mi A1, but the official XDA port doesn't work. I've heard of some people using the app in SD625 devices, and the Mi A1 has the 625 SoC, so in theory it may be possible to port the app... I can't code, so does anyone know something about a download link that works on Mi A1 or can mod the XDA apk to work on the Mi A1?

Almost every ported gcam works on mia1, have you enabled Camera 2 api ? it needs that enabled to work.
Anyway , you find all these ports on this thread

I don't know how to enable the API: please explain me, if you can. Moreover, is it possible to add EIS to the stock camera or at least in Google Camera ported?

If you are rooted you have to add below line in build.prop -
Code:
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
after that reboot. you will have working gcam with HDR+. although the slomo option won't work. and you will have EIS too in gcam.

i think Google camera hdr+ need a snapdragon 820++ isn't it?

@thewarrior2 It doesn't, it needs a 64bit OS and a snapdragon SoC packing a certain Hexagon DSP

Can anybody post comparison pictures of hdr+ and stock xiaomi camera app? I am really interested in seeing the results before buying this phone.

If you cant find the difference by looking at the samples posted, then you dont need HDR+.
But the fact is the difference is night and day!
Google is primarily known for software, which is what HDR+ is all about.. It uses the camera h/w, takes many pics when you click the shutter button, each in different contrast, and applies some kick-ass machine learning algorithms on every pixel of each groups of pics it took, fuses all of them, to get awsome looking pics.. Thats all it does, and thats all that no other stock camera app does from any other manufacturer. Thats why it beats even iphone.
So basically, google does more through software , what all others achieve through multiple h/w.. Reason why pixel 2 still has single Camera.

Best Camera APK for Mi 6

Having played around with some of the camera apk's for the Mi 6 what is the general opinion of the Mi 6 users?
Google Camera
MIUI Camera
Snapdragon
OnePlus
Moto
I find the Google camera to be the best even if HDR isn't enabled but the video is very choppy when panned to any degree. MIUI has a much smoother camera as does the OnePlus camera (tested latest version 2.5.20)
Let me know what you all think as will be interested to see results/settings
Google camera has the best picture quality, that's for sure, and I use the stock camera for videos.
What build of the Google camera have you been using/is the best to use?
I know all versions struggle with AF on HDR+ without toggling the settings each time
I've tried google camera with pixel libraries and 6p settings. Hdr+ photos are amazing. Can we collect all the mods in your thread ?
Yeah happy for that to happen, see what we can get going for the Mi 6

I haven't notice big difference in low light photos anyway. Not sure which version of GCam I was using, there are plenty of them.
And I had working HDR+ but in return it couldn't focus on objects so photos were really blurry

Need to root?
To have real HDR+ to work you must have check mark in the dot/circle next to HDR+ icon.
We don't have this check mark when we choose HDR+ ON.
I think that real HDR+ processing ia not present now.
Testing the camera now on my P10 Plus, but there is a lor of noise and seems HDR+ is not working really with image stacking and all...

I'ts have hdr+, its faster becose it use 4 pictures to get 1 pic, not 10 like Pixel phones, becose of algoritam 4 diferent scenes of lighting.
Hmm I don't think this is actually producing any HDR pics. There is no difference in file sizes or any other data between two photos taken with and without HDR+ turned on

Yes, I noticed that too, makes no sense that HDR+ is working when the sizes are the same of pics after HDR+ is completely ON and OFF. Not only that is a sign it is not working, but as I said the check mark inside the circle is a real indication when HRD+ is turned on. Here HDR+ ON icon doesn't change with a check mark- this is the sign that HDR+ is activated.
On top of that there is so much noise in pics and no detail.
I have seen a friends Mi5s Plus with working HDR+ Mod and I tested it extensively and I know the behavior of HDR+ and the kind pictures it produces.
I hope that this mod will get better soon, it looks promising!
Hdr not working
Does it need root?...,if so where can I I?
any update with this apk?
BTW thank you for this apk
HDR+ needs Oreo to work.
Im waiting for update on P9 to test it. For now no difference comparing to native camera app.
root: It works on my Oreo P10 without root.
HDR+: I don't see any difference in the images if I check HDR+ on sv HDR+ off. So it does not seem to work.
Nevertheless, Photo Sphere is working which is good.
The best part of this APK is it does not crash except may be Slow Motion. For all others pic quality is good at least we may a working APK which can be improved over time.
Great start

camera2 api highframerate recording

Many roms without camera2.api support 1080p 60fps recording via snapdragon and other camera apps ( Citrus, Aex etc).
But in my experience z2 plus cant record 60fps if camera2.api is enabled.
ie in gcam 1080p 60fps is not possible.
In nougat roms flashing osstwrp enables camera2.api but after that high frame rate recording is not possible.
In oreo roms which camera2.api already added 60fps is not possible in any camera app.
I'm not a dev.
Tried to edit media profiles, build.prop, magisk modules but no luck.
I'm searching desperately for a solution in xda more than 6 months.
Because nothing matches gcam in photo quality and 60fps is a must have video feature.
Please any dev kind enough do a research and edit library files so that using camera2.api we could record 1080p 60fps.
Please devs @MR.HACKER5476 @davidevinavil @kubersharma @Rodrigo Rodrigues @devabhi @narshi shukla @optimumpro can anyone point look into this matter? This is a really need for Zuk Z2 and I hope you devs can fix this small but weird issue!

Since nobody responds this is what Im currently doing as a workaround.
Im in H2O oreo build.
There is afterflash patch for this build.
In that patch there are 2 camera.msm8996.so files.
One for stock and one for gcam.
If you replace stock vendor/lib/hw/camera.msmxxxx.so with gcam .so file then camera2.api works and vice versa.
And reboot not required.
A root explorer is only needed.
Atleast, by a file replace we can switch.
A must read about hal3 and libraries

60fps with gcam working is so ignored in this forum. I individually asked many devs for this in their rom threads but no one responds.

I think its not needed. As we already know.
Don't know why optimumpro doubted us.
Another useful post I found.
Its from Mi5 thread. But I think its also applicable to us.
I think this is the reason for 60fps not happening.
Camera2.api is incomplete and camera1.api works only in legacy mode.
defcomg said:
The Camera Hal has 2 APIs one Named Qcamera2 and the other Qcamera3
Qcamera2 has the id 256 Qcamera 3 has id 786 or 756 can't remember the exact number now.
By Default all Qualcomm devices after SD600 use Qcamera2 this is what the miui camera uses basically Camera 1 api
Qcamera 3 is what activates camera 2 api it is Camera 2.
When Android Loads up and the camera hal loads it checks for the build.prop flag posted in this thread if it finds it and has value of 1 it sends a command with hal Id 786 effectively disabling qcamera 2.
When Qcamera 3 loads camera 2 is enabled so is camera 1 however camera 1 in qcamera 3 runs in a sort of emulated mode where it only has basic function like color effect exposure compensation white balance etc .
That's why functions such as HDR fail because they are part of qcamera 2.
Now there is a solution for this before I get to that I will explain how the camera is opened
App > Framework Java > Camera Client Lib > Hal Lib.
App executes Camera.open > inside Framework Java Android.Hardware.Camera Class is a method called open this invokes a native method which invokes camera client > Camera Client then also invokes the open method > then the hal starts up the camera . that's the normal way for camera 1.
Inside qcamera2 there is an alternate method called openLegacy what this allow is for qcamera2 to be called directly even with camera 3 active so when using the normal way of camera.open it uses qcamera3 when using camera.openLegacy it defaults back to qcamera2 for that session.
My proposal was yo redirect all camera.open request in the framework to camera.openLegacy so its system wide alternatively is to patch miui Camera .
I hope that makes sense

Working GCam Mod?

Is there any working GCam mod available for the MI 9 SE?
I tried several versions, only some of them work partially - night mode is lacking as hell.
Reminds me of the MI8 before they implemented fixes for it in the official ROM.
Did some1 have any more luck with a working version?
Camera2API is enabled and fully supported says Camera2API Probe app..

so... no progress here, right.
i tested tons and several of modded gcam.. with none of them night mode is working properly. it just struggles around after 2sec and is not usable.
strange the the normal mi 9 has a working version.
is there something missing in case of firmware xiaomi has to patch to make it work? just asking because this was the case on mi8 and mix2s.. after a patch from xiaomi gcams were surprisingly working..

cmiiw, mi 9 se required gcam that has 'Frame Buffer' fix on it. Maybe that was firmware problem or maybe something else... ??*
uhmm no. not correct. buffer fix works indeed for normal gcam usage.. ut the buffer fix doesn't apply to night mode.
Can someone do a little comparison between stock camera and GCam? With some sample. This could be awesome.

I'd also appreciate this. From what I gather too, the gcam works fine in all functions other than night mode?
A quick comparison from my sofa.... both shots attempted to hold same position, with the focus on the nearest point of the lip of the cup.
Xiaomi.eu 9.5.9 shot on 48M camera mode - link
MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e.apk shot on 48M HDR+ camera mode - link
The default settings with Xiaomi camera produced 6000x8000 13.5MB JPEG, on gcam 3000x4000 2.0MB.
Colour reproduction, contrast and detail is so much better with HDR+ processing using gcam camera. This is typical of what I find when comparing gcam to xiaomi camera app.

This is my modded Gcam for Mi 9T.
Basically it's @Urnyx05 mod but I was able to fix the excessive noise in photos with Zoom 2x sensor.

Works perfectly well man! Was waiting for this :highfive:
Can you suggest the best settings and libs for specifically Mi 9T?
Thanks a lot!
really good work ! but is 60fps video, slow mo and 48mp working for you ?

No, sadly... My advice is to use Gcam only for photos and MIUI camera for videos/slowmo/time lapse at least for now.
Great post! Would you say the Urnyx GCam (or this version of yours) is superior to the xtrme version? Have tried both but can't come to a definitive conclusion, really.

Would also like to know this as I'm using xtrem's version.
Just curious, how you guys mod these gcam apks. Is knowledge in coding necessary?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only 6.2 Gcam with all 4 cameras (3+1 front) working well with Mi 9T is the one in OP.

You're correct, this is the only 6.2 GCam working on the Mi 9T. But xtrme's version, although it's based on GCam 6.1, works great too with all 4 cameras. I don't know much about photography so I can't really tell which one is better overall.
Can you reduce NR for main camera as well? Night shots with HDR+ are good, but lack detail. A little grain won't hurt the image IMO.
Grainy noise is better than colour noise

Try changing library in advanced settings. Fit v2 seems to be optimized for Mi 9 that has a very similar main sensor.

It should crash only if wide or Tele camera are active.
Do you know if there is a version with working video/settings and auxiliary cameras support?
I suspect that video profiles for aux cameras are missing/hidden, at least in Global ROM.

Good evening everyone.
I have just joined the forum having just purchased a Xiaomi Mi 9T phone (That's still awaiting delivery)
Anyways, I am just wondering if this google camera mod can be loaded straight onto the phone or does the phone need 'jailbreaking' in some way?
Thanks in advance.

Just install the apk and enjoy.
The download links are dead? It just says that the file might no longer exist, in both links
