Ha? Where u seen that? In my knowledge OP6 does not have front portrait option. They promise an update later..

They will say it the 5t's hardware is incompatible. Then they'll after many requests if will be in an update. Watch.
Like they did with face unlock with the 3/t

Use Instagram camera op5t supports its focus feature or u can say portrait mode for front camera

Oneplus 6 Camera port to Oneplus 5T??

Hi all,
Wanted to know if there is any chance of the oneplus 6 camera app being ported to oneplus 5t AND if it will produce any better photos than what we are currently getting on the oneplus 5t.
A part of me hopes that oneplus is just waiting for enough oneplus 6 units to be sold before sending out an update for oneplus 5t that will give us the same processing software and power as the oneplus 6.
Thoughts and opinions on the above are welcome from all, especially the developers who have made this website the awesome place it is today for all mods and apps.
rgds,

Gcam on the 5t takes way better photos than the 6 ?*?

Does it actually though? I've compared pictures and I'm seeing gcam has a bit better overall color from the HDR processing but there is quite a bit of graininess in mid-low lighting settings. OOS cam definitely still does have oil painting effect but it's a lot less pronounced in the latest builds than it was on release, and photos in mid-low lighting are not near as grainy as gcam photos.
Care to change my mind and share your gcam setup/5t fixes you used?

Use the latest apk 7.9.5 and the fixes. Do some research in the unified thread. When hdr enchnaced is on. Longer shutter time. The photos are incredible. Hdr on doesnt do much atm (it used to but thungs are getting fixed atm)
Just dont touch to focus in hdr enhnaced. ( you need root tho. )

please remove

Not rooted yet so haven't tried out GCam. Since i have an extended warranty and damage protection, etc... I have not rooted and frankly ..this is the first android phone where i don't feel the need to root as such. I am more inclined towards an unrooted port of the oneplus 6 camera or maybe an official update... hope it happens sooner or later.

How can it be that you do not see the need for root when you have what you are looking for with root and Gcam? There is no logic in your thinking ... One plus will not give you anything, the Indian continues

the google camera port with latest fix is not compairable to oneplus 6's software or oneplus's software in a decades

A question. I have the version 7.8 of the Arnova Pixel 2 with the libraries in Magisk V1 because with the V2 and the last Gcam I lost the facial unlocking. Is this already fixed? If it is fixed which version should I install and what mod of Magisk with the libraries without losing the facial unlocking?
Regards

Thank you very much mate. It is amazing this camera so good.
I just took some pictures and have improved more to the 7.8
Can we say that it is better than the native of OP6? I believe that yes hahaha.

of course it is there is no much of improvements in the op6 over op5t
the slightly big improvement is in low light only but still the op6's camera is far from google pixel ,apple and samsung
we get pixel quality photos with this mod so we have a top tier camera flagship degree

We probably take better pictures than the pixel xl 2 because we have a wider f1.7 lens lol

I would love to root it but it is under warranty and apart from the camera, i don't see the need to root it for anything else.
Believe me, this is the first phone i am using where my fingers are not itching to root it straight out of the box.

I'm still curious about the OP's question. Would an OP6 camera port to our phone make a difference?

trade for a pixel 2xl

Been offered a straight swap for a pixel 2 XL should I do it

If you value taking photos over having a headphone jack, then yes.

yes do it or give me the offer, I will swap it

Cheers guys camera is my number 1 priority,
To be fair though I've take some amazing photos and video with the 5t

google camera has been fully ported so no need to get the pixel

Its worth several hundred dollars more. So even if you prefer your OP5T I'd trade it, sell the Pixel 2xl, buy another 5T and keep the change.

The 2 XL's camera is still superior to the 5T in every way, regardless of any mod available. Now the screen is much lower quality, although it has gotten a little better since the launch units.

Well, with latest magisk fix and dotfix GCam quality is reduced. Thats the fact. Gcam is not 100% perfect in 5T now. Since OP ****ed up their Camera hals we can't enjoy better quality.. Simply compare Mi A1 Gcam port vs 5T Gcam port with fix. U will be surprised....

I tried the gcam port last night and the noise was horrendous for low light, the oos camera was much nicer

ready to swap here.!

Bro. I am talking about general photography. Selfie and Portiait are perfect in Gcam. Other types of photos are not perfect like Mi A1 Gcam. As u know, our Camera HAL implementation is bad. One Plus ****ed it.. With dot fix the quality of the output decreased... Selfie and Portait shots are fine.. And yea i am always using latest

It's better. Really loves GCam. Hope will get a complete fix soon...

Well I will be doing the trade tomorrow ,
And will keep you guys updated on initial impressions
I use the camera alot taking mainly family photos

Got the pixel 2 xl
Similar in size to the 5t
First impressions aren't great to be fair
The screen OMG very bad 5t blows it away with colour
Very washed out even on saturated mode.
Camera is okay been very dull day here in the UK.
So far on par with 5t
And I think positive is better on 5t.
Pretty disappointed at the minute
Honest opinion

Glad ..8f anyone else in ur place
Would hav said that pixel xl is better then 5t just for their mind satisfaction ..
Also camera is ..okay ..u said really ? Coz i have been listening lot about pixel ..

A lot is said about the pixel but the photos I've took today of my son , are about equal,
The 5t video at 1080p is fantastic.
I will have a better look when we get better weather.
Maybe it's a placebo with the screen being so lackluster
Blue shift also exists

I might be swapping this pixel back for a 5t soon hahahaha

Starting a thread to pledge some tips for GCAM development (Snapdragon)

If someone can make a decent GCAM version that works on the Note 20 Ultra (Snapdragon), I'd be willing to put in $20.
Anyone else willing to donate, please chime in. Let's get the ball rolling.
Basic requirements for GCAM:
1. 4k video needs to work
2. front camera needs to work
3. astrophotography and night mode need to work
4. others? maybe 108megapixel mode would be great if possible

Just hang on
It will be fixed

Yeah, I feel this way. I'm sure we will get a working version soon or later, no rush. In any case, the camera is damn good as it is.

Gcam

Arnova already has a beta build out that is mostly functional. Night and Astro are working, 4k video is working. Front cam isn't but that may never happen unless Samsung brings back RAW format for FFC. I'm currently using it on my Note 20 Ultra with great results.

Came here to post this as well, been using this one for a few days now. Most things work, image quality is sometimes questionable with night mode but it certainly does work out of the box. I believe this was a hotfix update too, so we should be seeing a better version roll out soon

Sorry what is GCAM? is it google camera - and its relation to astrophotography?

I loaded this on my Note 20 ultra and the image quality is bad right now. Very blurry and fuzzy. I tried every option and it's the same. I'm sure it will be worked on.

Gcam without selfie camera... why bother ...

As an FYI, there was a GCAM that worked very well with the Snapdragon N20U. I've since sold my note but I'm sure it won't be difficult to find

Question Astrophotography Video (Star Trails)

Google only do security updates... You need to buy a S23 ultra to solve your problem

Samsung must have manual camera controls in its camera app. You have to keep the camera iris open for hours to get star trails and Google doesn't have that capability to the best of my knowledge. However there are camera apps on the play store that do have manual controls.
That said, the best camera is the one you have on you. In this case however I do think a dedicated camera would be a better option. At least you wouldn't be draining the battery while focusing on the night sky.

1. It was a expose by a redditor about specifically a feature by samsung that has existed for at least 3 years so no lawsuits are imminent as samsung hasn't claimed that the phone can take a pure image
