A different Gcam option - Moto G9 Play Themes, Apps, and Mods

Up until recently I have been using the Nikita Gcam 2.0 suggested here. It can take great photos on the G9 Play, but I found it is a bit fussy with focus - it tries to refocus often, sometimes in the middle of taking a shot, which can result in soft or blurry results, so I have been looking for another option.
I looked at other phones with the same sensor to see which Gcam was recommended. I have tried a number of them and landed on MGC 8.1.101 port:
BSG: MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix
Download MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix by BSG.
www.celsoazevedo.com
This seems to take good photos without needing a custom xml, doesn't seem to have the focus issues and doesn't need google auto white balance enabled to fix the colours. The only issue I have found is that it has a shortcut to the 2mp camera, which is upside-down. This can be disabled in the settings > modules menu. I also tend to leave HDR+ on all the time.
I hope this is a help to someone else.

Thanks ! It works great ! I'll be using this from now on

Creo que ésta versión es la más estable. La considero mejor que la Nikita.

[APP][FEEDBACK] Arnova8G2's Google Camera Port

This is a thread to report bugs in @Arnova8G2 google camera port. I'm creating this thread to personally report a bug, anyone else who uses the app and has an issue should feel free to post here as well.
App in question: drive. google.com/open?id=1IEf-BZQdk_SH3WVG3aev05pdiRpVqW68 (I am not allowed to post links yet, apologies.)
When reporting a bug:
Describe the issue
Include a logcat
Mention @Arnova8G2
The main issue I am experiencing is the inability to take burst photos when holding down the shoot button. This feature functions properly in cstark's version. OIS also seems to not be functioning correctly, the viewfinder is shaky unlike stock camera app.
Log: hastebin .com/ezerufuduj.xml
Device Info: hastebin .com/uzamasocuw.http
I found a VERY strange solution to this. It turns out switching to the video mode, and back to the photo mode makes OIS work properly. It's worth noting I have added these lines in the build.prop to enable EIS in video, so even though I don't think they're necessary for OIS, if this method doesn't work for you then they're worth a shot:
persist.camera.eis.enable=1
persist.camera.is_type=5
persist.camera.is_mode=5
I don't think the 2nd and 3rd one do anything but they're worth mentioning I suppose.
Full stock here, no root, and I find the same issue with OIS. Though sometimes OIS goes wonky in the default camera app when you cycle zoom modes, at least on my phone. It's the main reason I don't use the app full time. I'm a shaky individual.
Not sure how well the Z3Z can get supported with the camera mod, but I'd be willing to test out if it ever came to. The quality is phenomenal to say the least compared to the PixelMaster Camera app. I've tried a bunch of different versions of the app but always come back to Arnova's.
EDIT: Tried cstark's version and the switch trick does work. And the faster initial processing makes this a keeper for now. All that's really missing is the OIS and I'd be a super happy camper.
Arnova's no longer works for me so I've been using cstark's version.
I wonder if we can get OIS and perhaps some autofocus fixes. I find it can be blurry when it auto focuses, but super sharp on a tap.

I ended up switching to cstark's as well. At this point all that's really needed is for the laser autofocus and the rgb sensor to work properly. I remember seeing cstark replying to a zenfone 3 user that he would look into laser autofocus, but I think the rgb sensor might be a lost cause for any camera that isn't stock.
By the way, the 2nd zoom camera doesn't have OIS, so if the stock camera switches to it, (past 2.3x zoom in a well lit environment) things get a lot more shaky.

I still find the Google Camera Mod takes better digital zoom point and click photos than the standard Pixel Master camera and the telephoto lens. ?
What else can we do to get some better device support? I would use the camera full time if the stabilization and focus were fixed. It's near perfect.
Could someone pass me the mod camera link from cstark to ZenFone 3 Zoom, please ?

I get great results with stock camera but cstark27 GCam Mod seem to work fine using pixel XL setting. I use cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v3.7test.apk + AR stickers from the Xiaomi Mi A1 forum (ar.core_0.91.171127093-V1.1.apk) + AR Stickers 1.2
Do you know guys why Arnova's v8.2 doesn't work with z3z ?
I'm still trying with Arnova's since I found the best result with Arnova's v6. However I want to keep being updated but yeah... am stuck in the v6.
Is there any information about requirements for each version, so I don't need to try those versions brutally one by one?

No clue. Maybe someone can pull a logcat.
I moved again to BSGs/Toylan but I think those are having issues too on newer versions.
If someone was close or had contact with the Devs I'm sure it would end up being great. The sensor in the camera is the same as a Pixel 2 if I recall correctly.
Hello. I am thinking of buying the zenfone 3 zoom. Does the ois still have problem with gcam. Are you talking for photos or video?
Furthermore, are there any low light comparison shots of stock vs gcam?
Things would work much better if there was full Camera2API. ASUS seems to have locked it to limited and the OIS is not exposed to the OS.
Otherwise CStark 4.2t3 has served me well. Enhanced HDR is stunning . Only missing some form of stabilization, but the video trick works.

So if I am getting it right, the OIS does not work while shooting pictures? This is really weird since the ois is not controlled by the camera app. Are you sure that it is not just a viewfinder bug? Did you try shooting without switching to video and got blurry images (i.e. camera shake) ?
Is there any way to full implement api2 by editing build.prop?
I am playing with my asus zenfone for a week. What I find is that the OIS is not a problem for gcam. The real problem is that it has difficulty in auto focusing especially in low light. The circle of focus does not remain steady unless you tap to focus.
Here a comparison of stock camera (custom settings regarding sharpening, contrast etc) vs gcam. First stock

Thanks for the comparison pics, @Antretng. Definitely google is warmer than stock. By chance do you have any comparisons done during the day as well as inside ones?

Yeap. Here you are. First stock then gcam. In stock camera I have changed some settings (saturation, sharpening, contrast, noise reduction) since the default ones are really bad. The daylight photos of stock camera are Auto mode. The low light are with Manual mode but with all settings at auto (it has more natural results than auto). If you wish you can move the modes at stock and even change the default first mode.

Anyone find a Google camera mod that's takes advantage of the wide angle lens?
Night photo crashes the app, also unable to focus in this mode.
Video and regular photos works fine.
Not possible to switch between lenses.
The latest GCam based off 7.x found here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/google-camera-mods/google-camera-urnyx05-t3937515 supports toggling between the different lens (wide, main, tele) - you need to go to advanced to turn it on within the GCam app. However, the tele button is not routing properly and is instead going to the 5mp depth sensor, not the actual telephoto lens. The wide and main work fine though.
I just downloaded and installed the mentioned GCam. I can confirm that tele doesn't properly route (and portrait doesn't seem to work). If there's fix for that, it would be infinitely better than the bundled Moto camera app!
I compared side-by-side photos from stock vs Gcam and Motorola's image processing is almost on par with Google's. Portrait photos with the stock is excellent. I only use Gcam in odd lighting situations.
This one works great, and allows to use wide and tele lenses. Anly problem so far - night sight does not work with standard lens, and there is no slow motion.

Thank you! Can you share how you did set this up in order to use all lenses? Thanks!
Hello,
version 2.0 of wyroczens RN8P mod works with all lenses!
The only problem is, it crashes sometimes when zooming on all lenses.
You have some configs for GCam_RN8P_Wyroczen_7.3.020_2.0.apk (wyroczen) ?
[B]PixelCam Plus v2.0 [/B]
There is a new Port of GCam which works quite good

Actually i had the previous version installed and everything was set.
In Configuration you may go to "Lens Configuration" Activate the three lenses.

Try the Wichaya port: Wichaya V 2.8.1
The wichita seems to work great, not bug nor crash, even while zooming until now after fresh new install. Focussing seems also to be working well, just the telefoto lens ID (ID4) too much VW for my taste '-). Btw does anyone else found out that since A10, on regular moto camera 2 apps (7.3.6.14-denali), the 3x is not using the telefoto lens IN AUTOMATIC MODE, but instead the main lens digitally zoomed!!! (and as a 12MP output). Naturally, worse results than GCAM using the right lens at 3x. Can someone else confirm that silly behavior on the Moto cam App?? however, it does switch to the telefoto Lens if you choose MANUAL Mode. Strange!!?

Themes / Apps / Mods Working Gcam S22 S9010

After hours of brute force and little logic, I think I've configured a Stable enough Gcam for S22 S9010

What works:

HDR (Default is HDR net, you may change it to hdr+ e)
AWB
Video 4k 60 fps on wide and main cam
What doesn't work: (Advanced Video, which work better on Samsung cam anyway)
8k recording toggle in settings breaks gcam completely
Video with 3x cam
Slomo/time lapse broken
First off all, many thanks for your work!
Great to see someone giving this a shot!
For me actually the 1x lens and selfie cam are not working.
Selfie cam is working on video.
In the end i deleted the app again, for me it's far from stable and many lenses/options not working.
Really appreciate your efforts, so with any updates happy to try again!

I can try, let me know what to do.
SM-S9010 is Snapdragon version
Omg, some forums said 1090 was Exynos + In Hong Kong they usually sell Exynos
All this time I've been configuring a SD version, nice

Thank you. Snapdragon S22 here. I tried about 8 gcam mods with no success until I found this one. Sadly, zoom lens doesn't seem to work, but main lens is (as well as wide). Haven't tested wide, but main seems to produce marginally better images than the stock camera app.
Thank you for this.
Hey man, first of all, let me thank you for your work!
However this gcam does the same "trick" as other version for me - a rainbow tingle/effect across the photos. Anybody else also experiencing this, please?
Does this version works for the SM-S901E model? (Galaxy S22)

1- top shot doesn't work while hdr is on , hdr has to be off

Sorry I actually messed up a little bit
So the Urnyx works excellent, way better than the stock camera app. I don't know why it makes every photo look so bad. Google Camera just works way better.
Here's some samples from the Urnyx version for anyone who wants more detailed:
However, the Urnyx version may not work really well while in dark areas. Here is an example. I will compare it to the Google Camera version that I posted:
(The darker one is the Urnyx version, the brighter on is the BSG)
The BSG version is brighter, but it also has a lot of noise. It's also way larger.

It's the post processing of the image I think, Samsung didn't spend much time or money on it because it's considered a budget phone
The exact same sensor used on other phones (like Xiaomi) produce much better images

Yeah I think they just try too hard on noise reduction but ended ruining the whole image. These look so soft and don't have many details as I expected. I'm thinking of upgrading to A33 to have better camera experience and good software support but I'm afraid that the photos will just look as bad as on the A23.

I wouldn't recommend a33 over a23
the only good thing about the 33 is the amoled screen, the camera will probably be the same, and the processor is much worse, the A23 has a Snapdragon arm 64 processor,, the A33 has Exynos 1280 and it's only arm not arm64, and most gcams are 64 only so you probably wouldn't be able to even run gcam on 33
if you'll upgrade i would go more up the ladder like A52s
Btw, GCam 8.1 from BSG received some bug fixes since the one linked in the main post. The latest one is MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV2b. The configs should be compatible.

Do you know why are photos saved in such small resolution (1080×1440 or 1440×1080) instead of 4080×3060 or 3060×4080? I just take a picture with it and it looks so blurry. I have choosen the photo resolution to full resolution but it didn't fix the issues.
Thanks first, I'm just a newbie so I don't know too many things. The config I loaded is the Galaxy A52 since it worked great in the version that I shared.
Here is an example:
The larger one is the version that I posted. The MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV2b version is the smaller one (blurry). Do you know why and is there any way to fix the issues? Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't recommend a33 over a23
the only good thing about the 33 is the amoled screen, the camera will probably be the same, and the processor is much worse, the A23 has a Snapdragon arm 64 processor,, the A33 has Exynos 1280 and it's only arm not arm64, and most gcams are 64 only so you probably wouldn't be able to even run gcam on 33
if you'll upgrade i would go more up the ladder like A52s

Thanks you for your advice. The A52s is really great but in Vietnam is it so expensive it is 2x the price of the A23. Also, it has the same price as the S20 FE.
(The images below are from 2 big retailers in our country, CellphoneS and Thế giới di động, since A52s isn't available in Thế giới di động store and S20FE isn't available in CellphoneS anymore).

No, I don't know why that's happening. Is there any difference in file size between "Identical RAW" and "Full Resolution"? And have you start fresh with the new version (clean app data)? Also, after a clean install, test before loading the config file.
If nothing works, maybe try asking BSG on his thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-mod-google-camera-by-b-s-g.4201665/
@Daybyday_6969 wanted to ask you something off topic ...
does the notification on your a23 wake the screen...
i mean the screen is off and just the small notification comes and screen turns off again.

from my testing
There's 2 version that work with A23
The 1st works perfectly, with 1 issue, only the main camera works, if you enebled the other cameras it will crash
Imho though it takes the best pictures with the main camera
It's GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v2.6
And you can get it here

For gcam 8 i tried most and they all have issues and the image on gcam 7 always is better
That said i just found one that works good and better than all the other 8 versions
It's AGC8.4.300_V9.3
Download from (make sure you download the one for Samsung specifically AGC8.4.300_V9.3_scan3d)

And attached is my current config file that works fine
I'll update the file once i get everything working
Also attached a compressed file, for the denoise model to a23 sensor specifically, i got it from a dev gdrive but i don't remeber which, so all credit to him
Extract the Ip and In the cam options go to lens settings and go to main and inside you'll find noise model, inside load the *.c file from the extracted folder
Note/ (the attached file has the denoise zip + the config file)
1- top shot doesn't work while hdr is on , hdr has to be off
2- enabling frequent faces will xause the camera to keep crashing, keep it turned off
3- hdrnet os off becaue ot degrades the quality when enebled but you can eneble and try

Question Working GCam for 13 Pro

Hi all,
Did anyone get a stable version of Gcam working on the 13 Pro. GCam Hub does not still have the 13 Pro officially listed so I am guessing that is why I had the issues.
I managed to open the MGC 8.3 version but I features only 2 lenses and is soo slow.
Thanks

This one is the first that works for me without crashing.
But it does not work with the wide-angle lens - it shows in the interface and it reads the data correctly in the settings (it says it is ID 2), but when clicked it shows the main camera view (which is ID 7).
Any other suggestions for a working gcam?
I tried BSG 8.6: MGC_8.6.263_A11_V14 and LMC 8.4 and they both crash.
Camera2Test_All_ID.apk also crashes.

Ok so far working gcams (for me) are:
BSG: MGC_8.1.101_A9 - do you have any good config for this??
AGC: AGC8.4.300_V9.5Fix_aweme (from the Telegram group for our phone) - works with latest config from the same group (F(ast)&F(urious)_AGC8.4.9.5FiX) and custom lib (Marin V3) also available there.
LMC: LMC8.4.300 R17 with config (LMC8.4R15_Perfect_Arcide©FF) also from the same group. LMC is still not perfectly stable, sometimes black screen or crash.
All versions you have to follow instructions to load configs quickly after install if the app crashes.
For me there is no real benefit in using gcam at this moment - I prefer punchier colors of stock (even though a bit more yellow than gcams), and better sharpening also.
I wanted to use gcam as I need sometimes better (higher) HDR effect - stock is often too dark and too muted - only BSG (no config so far) gives me this, but with less detail. Please suggest good config if there is one.
Also stock selfi cam gives very muted colors, even outdoors in good light - gcams are not improvement here (all very pink toned) and will have to be adjusted. Coming from another phone, I am quite fed up with optimizing gcam and will stick to stock for now.
Happy shooting and please share your good versions and config for the benefit of all.

Why don't you try different settings yourself and make pictures look better?
It's best to try and learn how different settings change picture quality.

Like I said, I come from a different phone (Motorola edge 20 pro) where I was optimizing gcam parameters for LMC gcam for 7 months straight! I was satisfied in the end, but I am tired of it anymore.
Is there a possibility that I enable the 50MP on my lens without ROOT or MAGISK? Thanks!
