Thank you buddy. Works perfect.

I have been using this developers GCam for months now, the newer updates started introducing alot of noise in the pictures.
So i switched back to version 4.5, and in this version the front flash is working as well which is perfect.

Did u try latest Arnova 7.9.8? Fix for Note 5/Plus ( HDR+, Slow-motion and Portrait). I don't have redmi now. I am using 5T. Can u test?

Steps out a lot with a mistake for me, Xiaomi EU there is rom above.

Trust me the difference is staggering between 4.5 and the 5.x versions. Little grainy doesn't do it justice, all the normal and low light photos have an excessive amount of noise, even the algorithm cannot remove them , it leaves purple residue on the photos it just looks awful.

can i see your setting ? i I have done that but it did not work

Works quite well in my Zenfone 5z and the night mode is snappy: https://forum.xda-developers.com/razer-phone/themes/apk-google-camera-6-1-021-modded-t3880003
Ofcourse the front camera is bad because of the lack of Api2.
This is better but takes several seconds in night mode: https://www.asus.com/zentalk/in/thread-248308-1-1.html
But the result with night mode is amazing.
I have them both on my phone. Asus pixelmaster is for video and selfies and sometimes in good light conditions.

[MAGISK] Working telephoto lens for Pie custom ROMs

After multiple gcam apks, and modules. I finally found a working APK for telephoto lens. I am on AEX btw.
So, first you need this magisk module by @fu24 :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...od-switchable-telephoto-t3859831/post78396818
*Note The newer module by @fu24 breaks night sight, so this version recommended
Then install one of these APKs by
@fu24 Pixel 3 Mod : https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e-fu24_Aux2way_4Lens-03g-dual.apk (working Night Sight) (front cam still has green tint)
Thanks to
@fu24 for the magisk module and APK
@adnbwta for mentioning a Pixel 3 Mod

Huh, I never knew that you switch it like that. Yes, it works, but I notice that the pictures are a bit darker and grainier than pixel 2 mods. So I would stick with the pixel 2 mod.

Do I have to set back camera to 9MPX in order to get Autofocus to work on Pie Havoc 2.2 latest version with Moun Kernel on latest firmware ?
Preinstalled camera version is: Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2
Thank you.

Honestly I think bulkin043 camera mod is the best since it's more feature complete than BSGs one.

Most of the times when you install a gcam port you have to make some changes at the settings of the app. I don't know if this is the case for this port also. But I guess this must be it. @sivansk could elaborate...

There is no proper gcam development for mediatek chipset ,since it is a flagship chip we can expect it in future updates! And I will reply it with a better gcam with fully functional!

General default camera so much better then Gcam my review

ok let me start custom roms blow stock out of the water but the only thing that made me go back to stock was the camera app , in my opinion gcam struggles to focus I do consider myself a a photography pro , that being said , i love the performance of the customs roms overstock , hands down, but the default camera is the deal breaker in my opinion, g-cam struggles to focus , especially in macro mode , I do hope some one port the ANX camera to a custom rom ... just my 2 cents and I tried them all Gcam / configs so save your breath...
I agree, the stock cam is just better, more convenient and faster imo. Luckily for me I dont care much about photos.
Sorry I got that wrong.

It's true, thanks to a user of this forum that I don't remember the name I was able to use the Gcam for normal and night photos but the macros are still a problem.
Another thing that is making me think about going back to Stock ROM is that there is no support and continuity of updates.
I really love the stock camera too. But for Macros or really close photos it can't focus could you give me a tip, to improve it.
Does any custom rom support the stock camera app?

Hi,
right after taking the picture the app closes, the picture is saved but every time I have to reopen the app. If I take a photo in night mode the app closes and the photo is not saved.
I also have Gcam installed can there be a conflict?
