Google Camera stable apk? Nokia X7 - Nokia 8.1 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone! I just got a Nokia X7, chinese version, unlocked network. Without Play Store, by the way. So i updated to Android 9, and it didn't change much. Anyway, anybody has a stable apk of Google Camera, or GCamera MK, for my X7? Because i tried almost all (updated and old ones) of the APKs from this discussion (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-8-1/themes/google-camera-port-t3878629) and all of them have something not working well, or at all. I would really appreciate that guys ?thanks

I tried BAG gcam (RazerPhone) and Sanity's gcam (Poco F1) and both worked great on Nokia 8.1

Camera performance on Lineage/custom roms? (New og XL user here)

Hey guys,
I just bought a brand new Pixel XL 128gb yesterday. Yay! Quite happy with the purchase, since I got it for 270e brand new in box and it's replacing my Moto Z Play, which is also a 2016 phone, but a mid-range one, so the performance boost is quite noticeable.
Moreover, the camera performance on the Pixel vs that Moto is absolutely insane. Especially since my Moto is on Lineage, which makes the camera noticeably worse than stock.
My question is: How is the Pixel XL camera performance on Lineage or other custom ROMs?[ Does the Google Cam app work (can I even install it straight from the Play Store, does it still recognize it as compatible)? I've been trying to google the answer to this for an hour at least, but to no avail. So I'm really not sure if it all just works 100% fine or it's a downgrade as it usually is because of proprietary blobs and what not.
I like the phone very much, but I hate how the Google ROM is not letting me disable and delete things and overall I'm just very used to everything on Lineage and I prefer using the light weight apps from there, instead of apps that have been googleified for no reason (I want the stock AOSP Gallery, Messaging, etc). I've already replaced the launcher since I couldn't even remove the two default widgets (ffs!) but that's not really the same.
TL;DR - I want to switch to a custom ROM (prefferably Lineage) and keep the amazing camera performance on my og XL, is that possible?
Since razorloves includes the camera blobs in lineage, yes you can install/use google camera (I don't think it shows up from searching in the play store, so use this link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera)
The quality will be the same as stock.

Awesome news, thanks so much!
Are you perhaps a Lineage user yourself? Any issues in v16 or disadvantages compared to stock? I don't use any of the Google stuff, except Gmail and the Play store.

Have you flashed Lineage yet? I'm curious if you can confirm the quality is unchanged after flashing.

Heya. I have finally set everything up and I can confirm that by installing Google Cam (straight from the Play Store) after flashing Lineage 16 + gapps you do indeed still get absolutely the same high quality camera performance.
To me this is absolutely amazing, as with all phones on Lineage before I've been suffering from noticeably or even drastically reduced camera performance. I love it. And Lineage 16 runs beautifully, too.

Gcam portrait mod not working

Hi guys. İm using redmi note 7.
But i have some problems gcam. My app is dont working portrait mode.
After opening the application can not take photos in portrait mode. I press the shutter button but it doesn't take pictures. I am using the "eu rom 9.8.15" version. there was no such problem in old herds. I've tried almost all modes. "BSG, bulkin etc etc" Does anyone have this problem?
Sorry for translate.
Same problems happened with my phone as well. Running the same version as yours too, looks like the latest Xiaomi EU build is kinda buggy for Google Camera, so I moved to PE

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. Come on guys, we can do it !

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'm using 6.2.024 for Snapdragon
I still think this is one of the best sources for information for S9/S9+ users.
Cyanogenmod
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)?
Thanks in advance..

No i didn't modify anything.
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?

Front Camera not working with new hardware in custom ROM

I searched a new phone with good ROM support. After some readings of XDA's threads, I just bought RN8Pro, waited a week for unlocking and tried few ROMs.
It ended up that some newer RN8Pro has a slighty different front camera's hardware that is not actually supported by custom ROMs, as it has been discussed in some threads (like this one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...xperience-official-aosp.4059977/post-83570951 )
I didn't saw this information before buying, so maybe it is useful that this will be more visible to people who want to buy this phone.
If you have some news about fixing front camera, feel free to respond.
That is a problem that I also face
The front camera does not work on any MIUI with Android 9. But on MIUI with Android 10 it works well...
The problem is that every ROM requires me downgrade to MIUI with Android 9.
Same problem here.
Bought 2 devices 2 weeks ago, unlocked a few days ago and installed crdroid 6.11.
Front camera is not working, GCam crashes on start.
On another device, bought in october the front camera works well with GCam and other camera apps.
Hopefully someone finds a quick fix.
If this camera is a different model, can we identify it using AIDA64?
In AIDA64 -> Peripherals , mine says Samsung ISOCell S5K3T1. I don't know if this is the new model.
EDIT: I read that it's a new revision of the same model so I think this "method" won't work.

Did your front camera work in custom roms?
My sensor is too Samsung ISOCell S5K3T1 and not work on Android 9 with MIUI and custom roms.
Same case for me, the front camera is "Samnsung ISOCell S5K3T1" and I installed evolution X 4.7 and everything works except the front camera, how sad, I haven't found a way to make it work. I asked in an official rn8pro telegram channel and they only told me to stay in Rom Stock with miui until Xiaomi releases the firmware code for these new sensors. The newer rn8pro devices are the ones that have this problem since their front camera sensors are new.
It seems I have the same problem. I wasn aware of that when buying!
I tried the Roms:
Pixel Experience
Evolution
crDroid
Same result on all Roms, everything works except the front camera. As soon as I install another cam app like Gcam, it crashes.
I wish I knew this before buying Note 8 Pro
I hate MIUI, I was going to flash custom ROM as soon as possible. But... Revolut doesn't work without selfie camera. I hope I can relock bootloader and return the phone.
The strange thing is that no custom rom developer can solve this problem
+1 for me being a victim of this new front camera module!
Given the situation right now I/we have to compromise. Working front camera with MIUI (it's unusable for me and I've tried) or no working front camera + custom ROM.
I chose the latter (Pixel Experience 10).
If I do need a front camera I'll have to get my LG G2 (LineageOS 16.0).
Either Xiaomi releases the code for the new front camera module or it leaks somehow. Whichever comes faster.

I have also the same Problem.
Samsung ISOcell S5KGW1
Same problem here. Does it need just a rebuild with a more recent kernel? Anybody have any advice how to start that?

Same question here!
What I can confirm that the newest Pixel Experience ROM has the selfie cam working perfectly, I am just not a friend of that level of Google integration.
So I guess we have to wait for one of the other maintainers to take a stab at this, or try it ourself ...
I guess it's a lot more than linking some new libraries, so if anyone can point me in the right direction, maybe a howto, that would be much appreciated.
