Google camera mod? - Moto Z2 Play Questions & Answers

Hey guys, I just wanted to know does Z2 play supports Google camera with portrait mode?
I tried few apks but not even one is getting installed.

I'm using GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3b1.apk. Can't post the link to the site as I'm new here and the forum won't let me, but you should be able to find it by the filename.
It's based on Google Camera 5.1.018. I haven't had any luck getting newer versions to install, but that one works fine, including Portrait mode, Lens Blur and Photosphere. I had to disable video stabilisation, otherwise video recording would crash. If front camera gives a green tint, there's a setting to fix that in Advanced -> Fix Camera API2.

Do you have an older version of Google Camera installed? If so, try uninstalling it first. Also, are you on Oreo? Many GCam ports seem to require at least Oreo and won't work on Nougat.

Gcam mod it doesn't work on 32 bits. You need custom 64bit roms

Right, I neglected to mention I'm running LineageOS 15.1 on my Z2 Play.

I've only had my Z2P for less than two weeks, but it's been perfectly stable so far. Can't really compare with stock ROM because I flashed it to LOS on day 1.

OOSify (Flashable Zip)

I created this zip because I hate the hassle of flashing multiple zips and/or manually copy some files to /system every time I flash a custom ROM just to get some OOS stuffs, and I thought I could share the zip here.
This zip supposed to install OxygenOS 3.1.4 apps and files, which is limited to only 4 at the time of this writing, that is: OOS Camera (and libs), Gallery, MM Bootanimation, and Sounds.
(I know, no OOS launcher or Shelf, and I can't get the music app to work either) (yet) (hopefully).
Here's the file: Download
It should work on Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs, but it's tested on CM13, LineageOS 14.1, Nougat SlimROM, and AOSP-based Nougat ROM.
Known issues for the camera app:
Beauty mode (front camera) and panorama doesn't work. If you trigger Beauty mode, you won't be able to open the front camera (it'd keep crashing). Clear app data to fix.
Manual doesn't work on some but should works on ROMs with stock camera blobs.
I can confirm that its working on AOSP based Nougat ROM(Cosmic OS).

Thanks for testing it!
Hi, thanks for that. IMO users wants OOS camera.
Where are the libs from? OOS 3.1.4 ?
Different from what @CheckYourScreen did here?
I've seen that even today Sultan's improved again his CM13 with camera HAL.
I'd be really interessed in digging in it to see what can be used here.
What do you think about that?
Edit : Just saw that...
Thanks!, Getting the oos launcher would be interesting, if possible.

Not really sure of that as even in the official version Shelf was not really rock solid, but the idea is quite interesting....
It would be Google Experience Launcher + shelf.
I've read that Action Launcher have some kind of swipe action with a Widget panel, which is close to what OP launcher gives us...
Music apk file download from internet works well on lineage based roms

Seriously?
Sultan's version is the best option for camera app. It's better than OOS.
Are you on 12th feb version?
@fchrkbr and cool for Nougat Slimroms, I hadn't seen they had pushed beta builds this month. I thought they had give up end 2016...
Will test it !
i miss the slowmotion feature of oos... and i think that oos camera is best in low light conditions... but my version of sultan rom is from august i think, probably now the camera has improved...

NB : If, you update, you have to update bootloader first !!
Low light conditions? For photo you mean? Because for video, it's really the opposite.
thats the bootloader thing that makes me avoid update the rom, im tired of having problems while flashing new roms etc
yes, for photos, i usually dont make videos

Only camera app (and libs)
Hey, thanks! Is there any way to tweak your zip to have it install only the camera app (and required libs)?

Enable camera 2 API on Moto g4 plus??

Rooted device is required
1) open build prop editor.
2) type persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
3) save and reboot.
4) it's done now you can use full professional mode on Moto g4 plus.
Try AZ camera manual premium app for best result better than manual camera app.

Check again, if you write HAL in small letter it wouldn't work camera2api is implemented but not enabled by default.
Thank you. I was looking for this.
Edit: isn't working here. I am on Invicta OS 4.2 Android 7.1.2, @Aby lad are you on stock rom?
I tried with the AZ camera but it's crashing when i try to open the app, i tried with Open Camera (API 2 support) and it automaticly hangs.
Please provide more info about in which ROM this tweak is working.

On custom rom there is problem with camera2 api
so how can I enable the camera 2 API on the latest version of Cosmic OS which I currently have installed on my phone? Should I flash the Motocamera zip to enable those libs? I'm a completely inexperienced person in understanding these things. So, please don't mind if I have said something wrong.
can anyone open captured RAW image? I'm on stock rooted nougat november security patch and after taking photo with AZ camera, I cannot open the 30mb file not in the phone and not in picasa, photoshop...

Replace camera2 libs from system >vendor of cosmic os from stock nougat
Flashing Motocamera zip will allow to use Moto camera app on custom rom.
Thank you so much for helping out. Will surely look into the matter.

Nextbit Robin Pixel 3 camera

Hi there, it's been a while.
Do you still have the file ? I kept it on my phone all along until I accidentally wipe internal storage on TWRP.
Now I don't have any suitable GCam :silly:
It hadn't the normal Icon, the camera icon had a grey lens.
If you know it please let me know

Every thing is working perfectly
Tested it. The camera works fine, the 48MP options working good. But always crashed on potrait mode camera.
IMHO, gcam had a better picture quality.
This mod replaces the default camera apps on installed. It means, your default camera apps will gone after flash this mod.
Any way to recover it?
Thanks anyway.
Good job devs.

Yeah, for me the potrait mode made the apps crashed and when I open the camera again, it stays on potrait mode. So I can barely open the apps, the only way to recover it just with clear the storage of the apps. So the camera restarting the state, just like when opened for the first time.

Tried every lower version till v100

So I'm guessing lower than that will not work anymore.
Every version till v100, none of them works in potrait mode.
The rom still on PE ROM CAF editions.
I flashed it in my Redmi note 7 Indian version and it broke everything the anxCamera says can't connect to the camera. GCam is crashing and WhatsApp is crashing while opening camera.

please change the rom and try something else like other caf based roms.And see if it works or not because in our violet some the people stated that they are having same portrait mode bug but after switching 1/2 roms they found everything working.I don't have lavender so u need to test. And portrait mode bug is reported on the official Camera mod too.So if they fix portrait mode u will have fully bugless camera app from me .

Camera solution for Android 10 Custom Roms?

Hello Guys, thank you for joining me on this thread.
My question is :
I'm planning to Install Twrp and flash an android 10 custom rom. But in order to do that, I want to know if there's is Gcam, OOS cam or anyother camera module which I can use to retain the quality of pictures. If so, please link it here, I will try them ALL out, and others can use this thread as well. :angel:
You found something?
Nope. Literally no one has replied. Lol. Gcam could work, if installed properly. But I can't find how. Only installing the app gives pink bars, green tint and fc. Surely there's another way, a magisk module or settings to get it right. Haven't found it as of now. But derp Android 10 rom has the best cam in-built, even better than OOS people opinionate.
