Redmi Note 8 Pro Google Camera Port, Device Specific App for the Redmi Note 8 Pro

Hello. Thank you for your work. The wide-angle camera and macro work fine in HDR + mode, the main camera does not want to start, the black screen

hdr works on the specified cameras. Enters settings only if the main camera is on. thanks for the work

low contrast, unlike miui camera

App is in testing stage.

Here is first public available test version available: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-wyroczen/
As of now I'm not sure whether gcam can fully work on Mediatek device. Main camera has blackscreen as of now. HDR+ seems to work on Wide and Macro, but it needs further testing.
As I don't have this device, I can't check by myself whether some functions are working good or not. Feel free to test everything carefully Logs (from app on phone or adb logcat), and photo comparisons with stock camera app would be appreciated

This Mediatek chipset , is possible to develop custom ROMs? This chipset is no different than the others..
So if possible to create ,develop ROMs, Kernel and other stuff?
Thanks in advance.

First of all thank you for your efforts.
I tried to test your version. Here you'll find the logcat output. I filtered using grep com.google.android.apps.camera to avoid too much noise. If you need specific test please tell me which steps i had to perform.
Hope this helps.

Hey, I'm gcam modder, not rom developer
It is possible to develop custom roms, kernels, and "other stuff" but it would be better to have full kernel source from xiaomi

im not a dev, but I think there's hope for that because xiaomi has release their kernel source

ps: sorry OP for off topic

I dont know how to get the logs, but I can describe overall workability.
As said: when option RAW_SENSOR checked in FIX settings, there are full working HDR+ and HDR+ Enchanced on aux Camera - Wide and Macro, and on the front camera.
With alternative config Night Sight is also working, on three cameras. So as the Portrait Mode.
Also capture RAW-dng, seems to be ok.
Noticed issues:
Crash on video
Crash when trying to get to Settings from aux cameras, but if in Aux Cameras settings check the switch "Disable Settings Mode", button Settings is still present and there is no crash anymore.
There are problems with initialization of aux cameras. They starting from time to time. It can be a black screen or loading animation or non-active shutter button. Switch to Front Camera and back helps in 95% of cases.
Problem with deinitialization of camera session. Safety app is sending notification that "The Camera is using Camera in the background", even if forcibly shutdown gcam through the app manager. It causes another system bug, with the notification LED blinking or constantly on with no visible reason..
For now, all that I tested or remembered

What is the use of advanced sensors in redmi note 8 pro when there is no Gcam developers for this mediatek processor RN8 PRO!!!!

Thanks for posting...
I try fastly...
I'm on european model
Can't have anything with wide angle/macro.
Picture from main camera is visible in background when going on "Plus"
App crashs when going on "video"
App crashs when activate wide angle/macro and going on "plus"

You need to change to RAW_SENSOR in fix menu
Also there is an xml for rn8pro which will fix lag in viewfinder

Oh yes...thanks you...
It's Ok...
I take some macro and wideangle pictures
In most cases Gcam is better :
- captures more détails
- hasn't some unreal AI process you can find on Xiaomi's cam
- most time, better colors
But in one case, I get crazy colors on macro.
This one is better with Gcam :

Than on stock :

This is crazy pink colors with Gcam (only case I get) :
http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2019/44/2/1572366917-img-20191029-123321.jpg
And more accurate (orange) on stock
http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2019/44/2/1572366916-img-20191029-123339.jpg
Wide angle :
More details in trees, more contraste in foggy Sky, less AI artifacts (sharpen) in lighter trees in the middle :

Amazing details on Gcam...even if lights were yellow (Closer to stock's) and not white.
I had some problem to launch Gcam...I had to Erase data and reconfigure

when shooting during the day, it often highlights a blue or purple tint.

Can't even get the camera to initiate within the app. It shows in the background only on the "More" tab. Also, app crashes when location setting toggled off.

Hi! I'd like to get Google Camera app with HDR+ on my Xiaomi Mi A1, but the official XDA port doesn't work. I've heard of some people using the app in SD625 devices, and the Mi A1 has the 625 SoC, so in theory it may be possible to port the app... I can't code, so does anyone know something about a download link that works on Mi A1 or can mod the XDA apk to work on the Mi A1?

Almost every ported gcam works on mia1, have you enabled Camera 2 api ? it needs that enabled to work.
Anyway , you find all these ports on this thread

I don't know how to enable the API: please explain me, if you can. Moreover, is it possible to add EIS to the stock camera or at least in Google Camera ported?

If you are rooted you have to add below line in build.prop -
Code:
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
after that reboot. you will have working gcam with HDR+. although the slomo option won't work. and you will have EIS too in gcam.

1.No unless you have custom recovery which mia1 doesn't have yet.
2. nope.
i think Google camera hdr+ need a snapdragon 820++ isn't it?
@thewarrior2 It doesn't, it needs a 64bit OS and a snapdragon SoC packing a certain Hexagon DSP
Can anybody post comparison pictures of hdr+ and stock xiaomi camera app? I am really interested in seeing the results before buying this phone.

If you cant find the difference by looking at the samples posted, then you dont need HDR+.
But the fact is the difference is night and day!
Google is primarily known for software, which is what HDR+ is all about.. It uses the camera h/w, takes many pics when you click the shutter button, each in different contrast, and applies some kick-ass machine learning algorithms on every pixel of each groups of pics it took, fuses all of them, to get awsome looking pics.. Thats all it does, and thats all that no other stock camera app does from any other manufacturer. Thats why it beats even iphone.
So basically, google does more through software , what all others achieve through multiple h/w.. Reason why pixel 2 still has single Camera.

Xiaomi Mi A1 Google Camera Port

This will be a dedicated thread for the different Google Camera ports working for the Xiaomi Mi A1 since other threads are not being updated by their OPs and I will try to maintain this one like the OnePlus 6 Google Camera Port thread. These are the most stable GCam ports for our device and I'll be updating this thread each time a new port is available.

Thanks! Added to the OP
Rom version: Nitrogen OS 9.0
Gcam version : GCam_Pixel3Mod_1_build.6.1.013
Feedback : front photo green
Photo captured :
Here some sample for comparison,
App: MGC_6.1.013_MiMAX2_V1b_A8.1+
Rom: Stock 8.1
Darker ones are shot with HDR+ enhanced mode and Brighter ones are with Night Mode
Everything is working fine in Arnova8G2 GCam_Pixel3Mod_1_build.6.1.013 except front camera. All the pictures taken with front cam are greenish and blurry. Night sight working like a charm. I'm on LiquidRemix 10.0.1 pie ROM. Here are some samples.
GCam with HDR+ GCam with Night Sight​
GCam with HDR+ GCam with Night Sight​GCam_Pixel3Mod_1_build.6.1.013​
Appreciate the feedback guys! Keep them coming!
Great thread! Quick question tho, anyone still getting the dot pattern bug when shooting bright blue skies and bright colors? It shows when zooming in photos taken with hdr+
The front camera will be fixed in the next version, i talked to aranova and he will fix it.
The arnova pixel3 version works a bit slow/laggy for me, also no live picture in night mode, although it works/produces the image. BSG version works better, except for the annoying "hexagon" popup.
Side question - which is the best/most stable gcam version with ZSL/motion stills/slomo? I used a pretty old one, I wonder if there was any progress to this day - will try the ones in 1st post tomorrow.
p.s is there any way of having several camera apps installed? Usually it wants to overwrite the current one, although id like to test a few ones parallel.
cheers,
j.

All 6.1+ versions still have front cam issues if you'd read previous replies.

The 625 is weak and zsl and other features would be too much for it.
Some launchers can rename apps. App cloners should also be able do it.
Great to join this thread..
hope front face camera will be fix soon
Thanks bro

Do you have any sample photos?
In theory, this let us use aosp roms but still enjoy xiaomi images processing ie same quality photos as stock?
Thkans a lot! I've flashed it on Pixel Experience rom and everything went fine. Appart from a few freezes in portrait mode, I had no bugs so far. :good:
Works perfect on lineage-16.0-20190109 with MiPa Kernel [19.01.19] - no freezes here

Not as easy unfortunately. The camera HAL, which in stock ROMs use to be always better, normally decreases quality on photos for custom ROMs not based on stock.
Also the custom camera blobs used on custom ROMs use to have less quality.
In any case not sure how much this facts still apply since Treble integration.
To summary: i didn't do a comparison between stock and custom ROMs using miuicam but i did with both using gcam, same conditions and parameters, results were the same/very similar.

To summary: i didn't do a comparison between stock and custom ROMs using miuicam but i did with both using gcam, same conditions and parameters, results were the same/very similar.

Thanks, do you experience that cameras are "snappy"? Are they crashing under some circumstances or are there lots of features that doesn't work?
Crashes when I try to take a picture or video on Pixel Experience GSI Rom.
Does it benefit from using dual camera? Is there 2x optical zoom option using second camera?
Everything work perfect in Pixel Experience. Bye gcam
I used it with LineageOS. It worked fine, but my QR scanner doesn't find the camera as it tries to open the original Snap camera app, which isn't able to connect to the camera anymore.

Yes. It utilizes both camera's. 2x optical zoom works. And portrait mode also works.
I did have a bit of a bug with the second camera freezing, causing the app to crash when 2x optical or portrait was selected. But that was fixed after a reboot of my phone.
I am running Pixel Experience.

I got this solved with the help of the developer in the Telegram group. This is how: I opened the file ANXCameraMagisk_5.OldShamefulAnt.zip and deleted the lib folder in /system in the zip on my PC (it didn't work on my phone), reflashed it in Magisk and now the stock camera works again and so does the external QR code reader. Also the Miui Camera kept working after a short glitch when I tried the first time.

I found that portrait mode doesn't work anymore after that mod. Did you try that as well?

Same here. So I use Gcam for pics and the miui ported cam for video.
Anyone got it working on a GSI rom?
I can make short videos. And change all settings. But as soon as I try to take a picture, the app crashes to homescreen.

Rom in question
Do continuous shootings work? One thing wich is holding me back from switching to AOSP Roms. Every Mod i tried so far can just make a picture for each press of the button but not shoot until i release the button

Howto create Gcam FP4 config?

I am using Iode-OS and I want to use the Gcam Wichaya Mod, see here.
The Wichaya's 8.1 v1.5 app runs fine but is not able to use the panoarama-mode or in other words it is not able a.t.m. to use all camera lenses of the FP4.
How can I create a config? @mickey36736 is there a chance to get some tipps or can you help the slowly growing FP4-community?
Here is the original FP4 cam apk:
53.12 MB file on MEGA
mega.nz
Is there a developing team?
Starting from a Nikita GCam it is possible to install the auxiliary module for the extra cameras
NGCam | AUX
AUX (Auxiliary Lens) are available for many devices. However on some it FC (force closes / crashes), and that's why you have to set IDs manually.
If you faced with this issue, just download the app to see all IDs for all camera sensors and follow the instructions below. You can use this method if you have a FC or applied xml from other devices.
WARNING: Do not send any files in group chat, because this is only for you to set ID manually if you got a FC.
more info on the telegram group!
Hi! Which is the last known working version of NGCam for FP4?

Are you experimenting with Wichaya? Were you able to add a switch to the second wide-angle camera and/or set the shutter aperture to very long times (i.e., >30 sec)?

FP support is aware of the wide-angle camera issue and it's being discussed here. https://forum.fairphone.com/t/camera-camera2-api-missing-features-bugs/83196
the wide-angle camera should be usable in other apps but I can confirm it’s not. I’ve reported this to our Quality team and we’ll likely fix it at some point in the future but for the time being, you will have to use our app for such pictures.

I am using GCam Wichaya v1.5 and work pretty good with FP4. Nevertheless, I upload here my log thus maybe it possible to optimize the config!

GCam Parrot043 for Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 pro and 11

Hello,
I had until now a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 and the GCam from Parrot043 version 7.3.020.296349306 V8.
I take a lot of photos with people. The quality with this phone and this app are incredible. The details of the faces, hair, sharpness is almost perfect for me.
Now I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 and a 10 pro, and with both phones I have not find a GCam app that works and also takes good pictures.
The Parrot043 app unfortunately doesn't work and keeps crashing.
The only app that can keep up to some extent is the MTSL Cam V7.2 app, see link below:
MTSL: MTSLCam_V7.2
Download MTSLCam_V7.2 by MTSL.
www.celsoazevedo.com
Is there a way to somehow transfer the configuration from Parrot043 to the MTSL Cam?
Or what settings would you optimize on the MTSL app for photos with people?
Or is there a Parrot043 that works with Xiaomi 11/10?
Thank you for any hints
You could try latest Parrot043 8.4 V1.5 version.

Thank you very much. I have just tried it out.
The app works without crashing. But you have to switch on the white balance otherwise the photos are green.
Unfortunately, the quality does not come close to the photos from the MTSL, i.e. the individual hairs of a person are relatively blurred. See below/attached image-link.
The photos also lack colour saturation. Where is the best place to set this?
But, MTSL needs a long time before you can take a new photo.

Use MTSL if it's better.. Parrot043 gcams is simply with not many settings. Other gcams have more settings to front and rear cameras.
You could also try LMC 8.4 or Shamim 8.4 gcam builds. I mainly use LMC on my phone(Moto phone) and i like that very much. Settings is easy to find and modify.

It's not better than old parrot043 version for xiaomi redmi note 7, and it needs long time to save a photo, so cannot take several photos very fast... :-(

I have tried all of them and the quality is poor, i.e. the hair appears blurred. This is very frustrating. :-(
And here on the forum, the settings seem for me more focused on so landscapes, and not people.
The MTSL V7.2 with Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 comes close in quality to the Parrot043 version 7.3.020.296349306 V8 with Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, but unfortunately it takes a long time to process a photo.
I am already surprised that with the right app, a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 takes the better photos (of people) than a Xiaomi Redmi Note 11.
Is there no thread for Gcam Xiaomi Redmi Note 11?
However, my last solution would now be to configure current Parrot043 Gcam App, according Parrot043 version 7.3.. step by step, BUT unfortunately the developer settings of Parrot043 version 7.3.. are not disclosed.
How or where could I get these settings? Is "Parrot043" a user here in the forum? Are there any ways to contact him?
Thank you
