If you try to install Arnova's version, it will fail due to conflicts with the original GCam. This is just a cloned app that can be installed on Pixel/Pixel XL.
All credit goes to @Arnova8G2. All bugs/functionality from that app are also present here.

Hi, I'm curious what is different from Official Google Camera from Playstore, the Pixel 3 Camera APK, and Arnova's version you linked, and these?

Arnova's version has some of the pixel 3 functionality enabled for other phones (like portrait mode and focal length changing after taking a portrait mode photo). If you install the non moded version, you don't get portrait mode or h256 encoding for videos (and more).
None of the v6 based moded gcam apps on the site you link work on Pixel due to their manifest, which is exactly the same as the original app (preinstalled on pixels), forces an update of the original app, update which fails as it recognizes that the moded version is not really a qualified update for the original one

I installed it on Pixel.. CameraNX captures much more beautiful photos.
More saturated and brighter

Working great . Thanks for compiling it.
Will you update whenever Arnova updates or wait for stable builds only?

Does it has top shot, night sight, super res zoom, motion auto focus, photobooth, etc all the features in pixel 3??
Will it ever get it?

I just downloaded and installed it on my Google Pixel running Android 9.0.
There is no trick involved.. may be your download is corrupt.

pls make a new app with the beta1 apk. but name it camera .
how is it possible to modify the apk so that you can install it on an pixel.

Dont Start. Not for this device and wants to Install App cloner.

Apk from apk mirror installs perfectly but This Arnova mod is not. App cloner seems to solve this problem.

Newer version available. Nothing exciting yet. It's more stable than the previous version. Night mode and photobooth options are there but not really doing anything. Also I am unable to get topshot to work so if anyone has been able to kindly share.
Note: Use App Cloner from Playstore to install
Can't share the link since I am new here. Just Google 'Arnova GCam' and download GoogleCamera_6.1.009.215420794-beta-1.apk

Silly question, but is it possible to download the newest Arnova app without updating the stock cam and without app cloners?

I updated my stock camera with the 6.1 APK taken from the Pixel 3 that can be found on APK Mirror and it replaced the one that came with the system.
Then I downloaded the one from the Google Drive link on the first post and also works and installs as CameraP, but has a little bit of an issue with WB.
Do the new releases try to overwrite the stock Camera?

Yes.
So you have to install using AppCloner. I can't share links or otherwise I would have shared the apk with you guys.
The newer version is much more stable. Seems almost perfect except for the zoom. You have to tap the plus button to zoom, if you pinch zoom it will crash. Also, HDR+Enhanced is giving some next level low light shots. Portrait mode seems better than Camera NX. No Top shot, night sight, Photobooth for now.

I never used AppCloner. Does it require root?
Edit: I've checked over the Play store and there are a lot of app cloning Aps. Which one do you recommend?
Can you provide either a play store link or the exact name of the app and Dev so we can try this new GCam port.
Thanks!
EDIT 2: Never mind the link. I got it from APK Mirror. I installed the camera but the viewfinder was really laggy and the phone started getting really hot. So I just uninstalled both, the Camera and AppCloner.
Did something similar happen to you?

I don't like the idea of installing app cloner. Hopefully there will be a way to install it alongside stock app

Not really. Pixel does get hot occasionally though. And both cameras you mentioned are working pretty well on my side. I am loving the Arnova's version and can't wait for the next release.

GCam ports for Galaxy S9/S9+ (Thread Reboot)

The last thread named "GCam ports for Galaxy S9/S9+" was very helpfull but got archived for whatever reason, so now, i'm rebooting it to help every Galaxy S9 (S9+) owner to find a GCAM port.
There are a lot of APK downloads and disposed all around the internet and the problem is not all of em work, so if everyone that has a certain working version on a certain config (Processor/Android Version) posts it here, it'll be the biggest repository of GCAM ports for the Galaxy S9 on all variants.

Thx! Is it working 100%? Because then I'd maybe consider an upgrade. is it with a10 possible to move the clock in the notification bar to the right side? Do you think it was worth it to upgrade? Especially in terms of camera quality, or is it just "normal". I only want to upgrade if there are huge improvements . I also don't like the look of One UI actually.

Samsung have an app on the galaxy store that allow you to customise clock location, nav bar icons, notifications, recents etc. Its called Good Lock. You can use it on any samsung (as far as i know) phone with OneUI. To change clock position, you then pick QuickStar inside Good Lock.

I still think this is one of the best sources for information for S9/S9+ users.

It has good default settings for both processors.

How did you make these versions work? Only the configs? IDan's version isn't really rich of features and all of Arnova's apks are extremely overexposed for me (photos are almost completely white) and the according configs only fix the lag of the preview for me. Did you modify any other settings?
Thats great!
Will you please provide the link of that working apk on android 10 one ui 2.0 (EXYNOS) with the supporting files (if any)?

The versions at mackytravel are modified for day time only or night time only. If i used the night time only versions during the day i would get all white as well.

Links are provided on the first page second post. You can use Idan's 3.5 fix version, only features that doesn't work are the front cam hdr+ and portrait mode. We don't have night sight in this version though, but provides the most stable version for exynos s9.
Hi,
I have seen the links on the first page but I still have problems finding the correct version.
I see specific links for older versions that should work with a Samsung S9+but I'm looking for release 7.3 with support of xml config files and for the Exynos processor.
If I install the version from Arnova 7.3.021 it always immediately stops hen launching.
I found lot of versions on other places but a version is working on Exynos is hard to find.
There also seems to be fix for non-rooted phones to get the front camera working.
If possible I like to have version 7.3.
Can you point me in the right direction or give me another link where I can find the information
I am currently running ZGcam, it has working night sight, portrait mode, hdr+ enhanced... supports xml configs. You can find it on zgcam official webpage

What libs do you recommend?
For s9 or note9, probably my custom libs, also turn the saturation of shadows from 1.1 to 1.0, keep the awb on

Front Camera freezing
Switching to the front camera in picture mode leads to freezing of the camera. Switching back to the main camera releases the freezing. This happens only in pictures mode, not in video mode.
Anyone having the same issue?

After Samsung update today, Gcam stopped working????

Hi,
For some reason, got an update from samsung this morning, latest One UI 2.5.
After updating my Gcam stopped working, tried several different apps but
still stops and closes when opened. Any ideas???

That's a little concerning. Can you download Camera2 API Probe from the Play store and see if the camera still supports RAW capture?
Also try this specific gcam to see if it works for you https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/NGCam_7.4.104-v1.4_snapcam.apk

Samsung must have done something in the 2.5 update to OneUi that caused it for me.

So I tried Hypercam. When I switched to the telephoto it completed crashed. Wipe data and got everything back. Front-facing camera just hangs.
I spent a good amount of time yesterday trying different GCam versions. Some partially worked, namely some HyperCam versions and TrCamera versions. Couldn't seem to get the front camera working on any versions, however. No matter what RAW and Viewfinder format I chose, the front camera would either hang, or cause the app to crash. I rooted through as many settings as I could think to change around to get the front camera working, but nothing was working for me. So I would imagine that the versions that are closing immediately may have some sort of front camera configuration that is now not playing nice after the 2.5 update.
Definitely very strange, hoping a dev can nail this down, because I have been trying to use Samsung's camera app and, boy it's just not comparable to GCam, especially the front camera.

Looks like both those IDs on the update don't allow RAW capture. That must be part of the problem. Do you know if it is fixable?

Weird how 4K 60fps only works on the ultrawide camera and not the main camera.
Is there any gcam mod that allows to record 8k and 4k/120fps? BTW I tried many mods and I did not find any with all functionalities available: all cameras, motion photos, night sight etc. If motion photos available, only single camera can be used, etc.
I also don't understand why they decided to remove all languages other than English from all mods. Original Gcam supports many languages.

Not at the moment, as far as I know but our device's release happend less than a month ago so the development is still in early stages. BSG is quite fast at updates so hopefully it'll eventually happen.

What is much more simple? Additional languages strings are original from Google, no need to touch them. Of course, additional custom settings will appear in English only, because they won't be translated.
Additional effort required to remove all translations. So it's opposite to what you are saying

That's the package signature. On some phones, using the Snapcam one allows access to the auxiliary cameras (ultrawide, telephoto).

I think so, yes. I read Snapcam is recommended for phones from BBK-owned smartphone brands. However keep in mind a brand could "block" the access to auxiliary cameras at any moment. For example Samsung blocked access to the selfie camera, so in GCam ports, the selfie camera just does not work on Samsungs... Not sure if they have fixed it, but I know it's been a problem for Samsung users.

You can download a XML file, and import it to the GCam app. It will import settings from the file, so if you find a XML file for the 9 Pro BSG Gcam port, just download it and import it via the app. Also you can create XML files yourself, and share them if you want as well.

Some manufacturers have even coded things to prevent third-party cameras from using the phone's full camera resolution capabilities. On OnePlus devices they could be locked to 12 MP, even the main camera.

Nothing, really. They just have different signatures. If you find that certain additional modules (Magisk flashables that add or enhance a device's camera functions) don't work, try the other. Some devices have a camera version signed specifically for them (ie, Samsung phones) because of this. It just happens that the snapcam signature seems to work best on our device.
I'm having some nasty issues with a strong lilac purple pink RAW files from Gcam recently. It makes it unusable. It worked fine before but suddenly this problem started happening, perhaps it came after a system update. :/

A working Gcam for our phone, because we deserve it:
BSG: MGC_8.1.101_A9_PV0h
Download MGC_8.1.101_A9_PV0h by BSG.
www.celsoazevedo.com
(always use this version: org.codeaurora.snapcam)
Compared to the stock camera, the shutter is faster and the colours are somewhat more vibrant. Haven't had a chance to compare night modes yet.
If you have an XML setup to recommend, please do share.

I tried this and the colors were way to bright and inaccurate

We'll, it's not a secret that Google's image processing slightly saturates the colours and beautifies photos. Not a bad thing imho.
Anyhow, BSG keeps releasing new builds, the latest one dated today:
BSG: MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix

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?

Find files sections "Files(32)"
Download the last, 204 version
Install with magisk
First couple of times opening camera gives error, but not to worry, try again.

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?

Apparently it looks like the video is being made but I don't understand where it is being saved.

Can't tell.
Maybe it depends also on custom rom, what is installed.
I'm on Syberia OS. Night mode is working ok.

Thank you. After switching from 30fps to 60fps the video was indeed stored correctly!

[MAGISK] OnePlus Camera for ROMs without it

This is my first time making a module, so it's probably held together with tape compared to other modules made by competent people.
A simple module, just installs OPCam and needed dependencies. I've only tested this on the Derp A12 ROM, and it works fine.
Macro mode doesn't show up, I've no idea why, if you do, let me know and I'll update it.
DOWNLOAD:​
opcam.zip
drive.google.com
CREDITS:​@topjohnwu
XTENDED XR-vX.r team as I pretty much just looked through their ROM to see what files they used to get OPCam working.
The app seems to crash when I open the video function, and only when using the normal camera.
It works fine with the selfie camera but the second I switch the app disappears.
Using latest derp. Any advice?

Good luck.
I switched back to oxygen because I was missing some features derp didn't offer, but since you've got the same issue you should be able to test it yourself.
Thanks,
But is it possible to make a zip that is flashable from recovery instead?
Thanks a lot, this is working well. Portrait mode works great as well. I prefer GP over the OOS Gallery app so I disabled it, but everything works great, just had one question. Is this version latest for the 7tpro?
