After the Android 10 update, Gcam is no longer working. How to fix it? - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

After the Android 10 update, Gcam is no longer working.
How to fix it.
Mi A2 Lite

Have you checked if camera2 is working?

You must add persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 to build.prop in /system, that's what's missing.
Flash the attached zip in TWRP.

Hey! Is there a GCam with working front camera for Stock Android 10?
The ones I tried previously worked on custom ROMs but now all of them crash or not taking pictures.

Hdr was working on front as well on custom rom, I was talking about the fact that I was unable to take picture or gcam crash when I tried (even when hdr was disabled). Guess I messed up the cam2api enabling somehow. Anyways fixed since.

Share Google Camera port (I have experienced) for Redmi 5 Plus

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
Note: ** Your phone has root and activate camera2api.zip file here

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.
Does front camera HDR+ and portrait mode work?
I remember my Redmi 5 plus worked in portrait mode but no front cam HDR+
But now my phone is bricked, so I can't test it

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?

Yes I have this problem too!!!
And, even if my cam2api is enabled, evry gcam version I tried, the ones with night sight specially, v6, are giving me force crash on front cam!
Could be lack of rooting? I enabled cam2api by unlocking the bootloader only, without rooting my phone.
V5s of gcam are working, not fully, still problems with front cam not capturing anything, but no night sight.

yes, but...autofocus in low light doesn't work at 100%. but manual focus seems to work fine. it's much better than it was in previous versions, but the speed and quality of focus is still lagging behind stock camera. but with good focus, the quality of the photo is very good (night mode a huge difference).

You need Root permission and you also have to enable camera2api.

only cam2api enable is needed. I have no root or twrp...for installation it is necessary to remove the previous version. but I noticed another problem - main camera doesn't work without hdr features (hdr,hdr+) don't capture any picture.

UPDATE: after uninstalling Gcam mod 6.2.024 i was able to successfully install this gcam which is 6.2.030. focus works way more reliably than the previous build. front camera is broken, rear camera doesnt work when hdr+ is disabled, hdr+ works but the highlights tend to get blown out, hdr+ enhanced works great, night sight appears to work. slow motion works on 1/8 speed but not 1/4. overall customization of this por is good but not as advanced as other ports out there. you cant select how many still hdr takes but you can select low medium high....
overall focus is fixed and im happy, i which normal hdr+ could be more customizable. ill be tweaking the settings and see what else works and doesn't work.
Hi! Thanks for your work. I notice selfie is not working for me

2-48mp fixed

All credit goes to #AEonAX for his ANXcamera port and Me
Try it and report me back what is working and what is not.
Tested on Mokee latest 201906190631 nightly rom .
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.
Testing on PE Rom CAF Edition latest build.

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
V98 cannot even open in photo mode.
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.
I'm on PE ROM caf edition.

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 .

2 gcam with hdr+ working in front camera

Hi, this is not my gcam and not my xml files, I only share 2 gcam tested by me (in android 10 custom rom and gsi) and fully working.
Thanks for the users who shared (happymilkman_ teftel and other user in Sakura group).
How to use xml files:
Make a folder in internal storage named : GCam
Inside that folder make another named : Configs7
In that folder put the xml files inside.
In gcam double click next to shutter button and choose your xml config and click in restore.
Finalstable xml is for revolt gcam.

Excellent! I found that the "Revolt-7.0(PiTG)" version works best for me using AOSiP 9.0 rom. I had to switch off the "portrait.depthdata" and switch on "mod.use_portrait_fix_format" and "portrait.allow_raw_blur" settings in Developer Settings because the portrait using front cam was giving a completely blurred photo. I used "FinalStable.xml" as the base config.

revolt is working good for me on stock android 10
I'm using the Revolt version and it works just fine on Android 10 (I was one of the lucky guys where the OTA went without a hitch).
One question I have: is there any way to influence the image file name?
Yesterday I took a pic using the portrait setting and the photo was called "00100sPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20200325173925842_COVER.jpg".
I'd like to be able to change this to for example IMG_yyyymmdd-hhmmss.jpg or something equally simple.
Thanks in advance.
im using revolt too its working,, but sadly lastnight when silence day im tried to captured a milky way on this phone and not working lol (tried on night shot/astrofotography)
and all Raw files is broken when i put it on adobe lightroom.
well i think its time to buy a new phone lol~

Enable camera2api via temporary root and unlock bootloader. Otherwise, GCams won't work.

I use Parrot043 GCAM 7.3.020.
Front camera is working with following settings:
HDR+ you need to disable (display) flashlight
no HDR* with enabled (display) flashlight
No FC on stock android 10. But SlowMotion seems to be broken. Stock cam works, but with GCAM 5/6/7 video is stuttering.

No solution at the moment.
I'm having some issues with both cams and xml. I'm on stock 9.
The slow motion 120fps (1/4) freezes a lot of time. And when I set the 240fps (1/8) the app crash.
I already tried to reinstall the apps and didn't work... as far I remember both (1/4 and 1/8) works fine. I already rebooted the phone, nothing. The Manual Camera Compatibility app show all list ok...
