Description:
This module brings back Xiaomi's proprietary camera HAL and libraries to Pie custom ROMs and disables CDS mode to workaround green artifacts on 4.9 kernel.
It is only necessary for MIUI camera support and you really should avoid using it in other cases.
Disclaimer:
Once again, please don't install this unless you really need MIUI camera. Xiaomi's camera HAL is not as stable as the open source one, it leads to random issues with third-party camera apps and isn't really supported anymore.
And no, this doesn't install MIUI camera by default, you will need to use a separate module for it.

Stock Camera HAL for custom ROMs v3 (Google Drive)

not a memui camera lover but yea i always love Gcam
well as you shifted to Opensource hals which are stable af so in future anytime ? any possibilities that it will fix front portrait on gcam 6.xx?
just wanted to know about this otherwise gcam 5.xx works just perfect and once again great af job ??
Updated both stock Camera apps from A1 & A2 for proper compatibility with this module.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78913134&postcount=369
Just use one module at a time since both apps have the same package names.
Great work. Thanks from camera-addicted like me
We all are lucky to have a master like you working on our device.

As a workaround you can set selinux to permissive for a moment than back again to enforcing. This fixes this bug in my case.
I get black and white images with v2. With v1 works ok though.

To set Selinux permissive in a terminal with root access type:
Su
Setenforce 0
To re-set Selinux to enforcing type:
Su
Setenforce 1
Or use an app (Selinux mode changer).

It won't stop, after changing the SELinux status, just check with the "getenforce" command line in terminal emulator, if it is actually changed.. try again

Hi everybody,
I have experienced a time of this google camera port and found it quite stable, no crash.
And I decided to share it with everyone
It runs fine on Lineages, Mokee, AOSP Rom and MIUI

In order to use the excellent Google Camera features ( HDR+ and etc.) you need to have Camera2 API Enabled, to do that you need root.
Otherwise you can just install some basic google camera with sub-optimal performance.

Noup, i tried every GCam apk under the sun. No luck.
I can live with that but main reason i keep my stock camera around is because the front flash doesn't work on GCam...

yes, but you should turn off hdr mode in portrait mode
There are 2 versions here. If you use the first version, you will use the portrait mode normally. If you use the second version, during use you must turn off the hdr mode in portrait mode
I just checked it thoroughly. The first version is compatible with all roms. The second version is compatible with MIUI
I have no idea why, but Arnova V2 crashes a lot. I'm using latest EU stable rom.

Wrong. No root needed, just setprop hal3 = 1 in twrp adb shell Mode. Using gcam without root here, miui eu 9.5.4.0
blinking the camera2api.zip the camera stock is uninstalled? If not, how do I remove the camera stock?

Here's how to get front portrait on Cedric :
•Download This https://drive.google.com/file/d/1skMGmQlHOn0pVXh5UD7AS6F6LIQNTF91/view?usp=drivesdk
•Everything has been done for you except front camera black level offset which needs to be set at 12.00 or 16.00
•Dont complain about bugs this is only for front portrait
•Please share your pics
•All credits go to the porter all I did was make the presets
•Use Hal3
•If you don't have hal3 enabled here is a module created by Robson Williams (Flash in twrp)
•Please join our telegram @cedricchat
Can't install. I'm getting this app isn't compatible with your device. I'm on stock 7.0 debloated and optimized, magisk 16 with hal3 module enabled. Gcam custom curve is working but no portrait mode.
Thanks!

I have tried this and many other camera apks and nothing is working, all crashing at boot. I'm on the Pixel Experience Rom. I flashed Hal3 too (I tried MOTO Camera before flashing hal3 and it worked, but that doesn't work either)
Any ideas?

I wanted to ask that I have 8.1 stock on Moto g5 Cedric so will this work and also can I download xposed installer from magisk and will it work?? Thank you btw for providing the download option.
This zip for magisk. Install this zip with TWRP.
You can record [email protected] slow motion with google cam and [email protected] with stock camera.
But if you enable this mod you cant use portraid mode on stock camera if you want use portraid mode
you can deactive this mod at magisk modules

You can use this version gcam it's support manuel focus and you can select tele or wide cam
Due to the new arm64 Roms i decided to find the best gcam port that would work for the g5s, so i found it.
GCam Port v1 [8.0-9.0] - [Download]
GCam Port v2 [Better Low Light & Stability] [New] - [Download]
It needs camera2api enabled. Add this to /system/build.prop:
Code:
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
(Optional) To prevent certain applications from using camera2api, add this line to /system/build.prop:
Code:
camera.hal1.packagelist=org.lineageos.snap,com.motorola.cameraone,com.whatsapp,com.instagram.android
For GCam Port v1 you need some application settings to prevent camera crashes:
Go to Gcam Settings > Advanced Settings > Model and select "Nexus 6P"
Go to Gcam Settings > Advanced Settings > Config camera HDR+ and select "Pixel 2017 Zsl Hdr+(new)"
V1 issues:
Some modes do not work
Crash when processing photos taken in sequence with hdr+ enabled
Random Bugs
V2 issues:
Some modes do not work
Video recording broken
HDR+ on portrait mode not work
Random Bugs

The camera has to be opened only after putting the "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled" in the build.prop and restart the device, because it will crash for not detecting the camera2api

I did put it and restart, but I don't think the file saved properly. So I installed Pix3lify and it works now. Also if you install Pix3lify instead of editing the build.prop

Friends we can finally use dual camera in any custom rom.
Install using Magisk.
If it does not work at the first attempt it is recommended to return to the stock rom and then install the custom rom.
That way everything will work without problem.

Does this cam crashes frequently? I know cameras have been always the most difficult part o custom roms, I am still on stock only for the camera, other roms I tried (with a mi a1, to be honest) crashed when I need to take a quick picture... Also tried the GCam, it has better quality but it was worse at the end, it broke the whatsapp camera taking green pictures and random crashes were common. I would really like to install RR or any other rom, but the camera is dragging me back.
I wish there would be a debloated stock rom (no GAPS and the few xiaomi extras) just for keeping the camera working normally, but noone has done it (and I am far for been able to )

I get green tinted photos when I zoom in this camera app. Otherwise, I encounter no crashes or other problems.
Fix for the color bug:
Set the HDR mode to "live".
Portrait Mode is absent on AOSiP ROM
Portrait mode does not work on back camera.
Front camera has color bug. But, if hdr turn on or in portrait mode it works fine.

Miui camera works with almost every custom rom : Superior , crdroid , POSP , RR (I've tested on them )
Portrait mode crashing with back camera is fixable , you'll need some file explorer with root permissions . The problem is with vendor mismatch , and you'll need to make some changes , here is the walkthrough:
How to solve vendor mismatch bug:
Find string ro.vendor.build.fingerprint in the file /vendor/build.prop, copy the value from it and replace this value to ro.build.fingerprint in the file /system/build.prop ,reboot and portrait mode has to be working , it works for me all the time
Unfortunately I don't know where is the problem. After install this module and restart device, then stuck on AEX boot animation. After uninstall module in Magisk Mnanager 4 Recovery boots again normally For me also not working MI A2 camera port in generic Magisk modules, respectively not all functions, no live image filters, crashing etc. Can't it cause the custom Vendor of AEX rom?
Base lineageos.snap camera and GCam 6.2.030 works fine. I use both of them, it is not the conflict in there?
Thank you for your tips...
