[MOD] ColorOS Camera MOD (OppoCamera MOD)

I have been waiting for Oppo to implement some features into their original camera so I wouldn't have to use 3rd party camera apps for it.
I ended up modding the original ColorOS stock camera to include the features to serve my needs.
Since I think you might also make a good use of the added features I decided to share it with you!
Just remember it is an unofficial mod and you are doing everything on your own risk!

Features:
General:
- increased the volume of the shutter & timer sound
- The video recording now starts again when the file size limit is reached (3.8 GB)
-- Time it takes for the video modes to reach the limit:
--- 4K video - 10:51
--- HDR video - 53:52
--- 1080p video - 54:08
--- [email protected] video (1080+) - 27:04​- added Video Quality settings (Use Maximum, if you want the best quality. Double is of Maximum*2 bitrate, but it may not work with all the modes, and you'll probably see no difference between the two, except double produces enormous files)
- added Colorful Filter plugin
- added more photo resolutions
- added Audio source menu (Camera/Microphone)
- added Anti-Banding setting (off, 50 Hz, 60 Hz, auto)
- added Scene mode setting to camera interface
- added additional scene settings (Color effect, Exposure, White Balance, ISO, Contrast, Saturation)
- added focus and exposure menus
- scene settings can now be changed in video mode as well
- continuous focus in video has been enabled (start recording, select Fixed focus, then select Continuous focus)
- Touch-to-track enabled for all video modes except of 4K UHD
- added Timer Delay setting (you decide how much time you need to set up your scene)
- added Timed Shots ("timelapse-like" photo taking, you can use it with any mode - like Slow-Shutter...)
- added Close in... option, changed the default value from 1 minute to 3 minutes. (= time for which the camera app stays open until it gets closed to save battery)
- O-Click double-click now starts/stops video recording
- added icons (replaced some of the old arrow images)
- added Super Macro camera mode​Video:
- Slow-Motion mode now records audio along with the video
The audio still does not fit the the video - you need to use applications like Audacity to slow it down and put it back in. But at least it is there.
- Slow-Motion 120 FPS fixed (just select Slow Motion mode and set Anti-Banding to 60 Hz)
Some countries could only record at 100 FPS before
- 1080p+ mode added (1080 mode with audio recorded at 60 FPS, played at 30 FPS)
The output is similar to Slow-Motion (audio needs to be edited) and video is 2x slowed down. You can use an application to make it 60 FPS media file (ex. Avidemux, Sony Vegas, etc.).​
Features that are only in the 4.4.4 version of the mod:
- added PasserBy plugin
When you want somebody (a friend or a passer-by) to take a picture of you with a specific landscape as a background (to make sure all the important parts are in the photo) you may want to use this PasserBy mode.
How to use it:
1. Select the PasserBy mode
2. Snap the 1st photo with the landscape in the scene (you will be able to see the photo overlaying the actual camera output)
3. Give the phone to a friend (or a passer-by)
4. Instruct him to make sure the overlay photo matches the scene
5. Then he can take the (2nd) photo with you in the picture (this photo will get saved)​- added Ubifocus camera mode (will work on Android 4.4.4+)
What is Ubifocus?
Ubifocus = After Focus = Focus Freely. It's a mode which allows you to refocus a photo after it's been taken.
How to use it:
1. Select Ubifocus camera mode
2. Take a photo, don't move the phone
3. Go to Photos, select the taken photo and click on
(the strange button that does not belong to the photo)
4. Click anywhere on the picture to refocus
Note: Experiment with the distance of the closest object (must be 30 cm or further, until they optimize it)​
Known bugs:
- Touch-to-track is not working
-- If you are on an Int'l version of ColorOS - use two fingers to tap on the object of interest
-- If you are on a Chinese version of ColorOS - draw ✓ on the object you want to track
- Timed Shots counter counts to 5 s and then starts again
-- The counter is indicated by images - I would have to create hundred images so it could count down from 100 s. So if you set the timer to 15 seconds, you will see it counting 5, 4, 3... three times.
-- When there are only 5 seconds left (and you have the shutter sound activated) you will hear the beeping sound so you know the camera is about to take a shot.
- Only on 2.1.5i:
- Rapid Shooting function does not work for International ColorOS (it works on Chinese ColorOS)
- Vocal shot is not working for International ColorOS
--- You can make it work by installing OppoSpeechService.apk. But it will only react on chinese command to take a shot - PaiZhao (pronounce "PieChao")
- SuperMacro may crash the app (just don't update the plugin and you'll be fine) - use the original one:
Clear Data for Camera
Uninstall Super Macro
Disable internet
Install MicrospurCamera.apk from system/reserve
Open Camera
Install SuperMacro from the Settings/More menu
Use it from the Settings menu
Based on:
- OppoCamera 2.0.3688 (150721)
(The application might misbehave if you are on an older ROM or even a JB version)
Before you ask, it will not work on any other ROM which is not based on ColorOS
Check the bottom of this post if you wish to use this mod on other ROMs.
Confirmed to work on:
ColorOS 2.x (Chinese) (full support)
ColorOS 2.1.5i (International) (with exceptions - see FAQ)
Other ROMs it probably will work on: KaKulayOS, MaKulayOS...​
How to install:
- Make a backup of /system/app/OppoCamera.apk and OppoGallery2.apk (optional, root requried)
- Simply flash the included zip file via a TWRP recovery. (no root is required)
(Make sure Zip file verification checkbox is unchecked before you proceed with flashing)​
FAQ (aka do you have any problem? Check this out before you ask):
Q: Can I use this mod on international ColorOS?
A: You can use it on ColorOS 2.1.5i (see Useful Links). However, you will have to do without some features - Voice Shot, Rapid shooting.
Q: Do I need to be rooted?
A: It depends. If you want to make a backup, you need to be rooted. However, it's optional, so you need no root for the installation itself.
Q: I am missing some camera plugins.
A: Go to Plugin Playstore (+ Add button) and Install the plugins.
Q: The quality of the slow-motion video is poor.
A: Slow-Motion video records videos at higher frame rate. This needs good light condition for the quality of the output video to be optimal.
Q: Timed shots result in less shots than I have set the camera to take.
A: If taking a shot in the selected mode takes more time (for example Slow-shutter - up to 32 seconds), you have to set the time delay to be of higher value than that...
Q: I can't install this. E: Zip signature verification failed message appears..
A: Go to Install again, choose the file, uncheck Zip file signature verification and flash the file.
Q: I can't install this. E: error executing updater binary in zip... message appears..
A: Download OppoCameraMOD again, along with md5 file. Put it into a folder on internal SD and try again.
Q: I extracted the apk and tried to install it but "App not installed" message appears every time.
A: That's why you are supposed to flash the zip file.
Q: Can I use this mod on other ROMS?
A: Yes. Check the link in the Useful links.
Q: Can I use this mod on other phones?
A: Yes, if your phone is from Oppo or OnePlus (One).
Q: What is Touch-to-Track?
A: Tap the screen with 2 fingers to select an object to track. A green square will show up. The object inside the square will stay in focus.
Q: The video is laggy when recording with Slow-Mo or 1080p+ video mode.
A: This problem first appeared on the new ColorOS running on Android KK 4.4.4. You will have to wait for the chinese developers to fix it. Till they do that, you can prevent it selecting fixed focus (disallow refocusing) and focusing on the object of interest before you start recording.
Q: When I shoot photos in RAW mode, the camera gets stuck/crashes.
A: Set all the scene settings to the default value - RAW mode is not made to handle the custom scene settings as it is to capture the scene exactly as it is, without any modifications.
Q: I am using ART and.... (mod versions 0.24 and lower)
A: That might probably be the problem. Please change to Dalvik and try if the problem persists, then return to this thread.
Q: I am on a ColorOS based on KK... (mod versions 0.30+)
A: Since ColorOS changed to Android Lollipop, the KK versions are no longer supported by this mod.
Q: I am using CM11/12, OmniROM, (fill in any ROM different from ColorOS...) and I have a problem with....
A: This mod is made for Oppo devices with ColorOS. If you are on any other device or ROM, I can't help you. You can check the port of this camera for CM11/12 in links below.

Works well, testing it now. Some new plugins mising though like Super Macro etc. But great work.

Do you mind if I integrate this into my Rom?

SuperMacro mode has been added. I don't see any difference from Normal mode with 4x zoom, though.

Sure, just make sure it's clear that your repack uses an unofficial experimental camera.

I don't get to install or use the plug in though. Most of the times. It doesn't even focus at 4x zoom

Really awesome
But link just shows inside off zip. ..? No dl

That was Google Drive link. You can download it by clicking the down arrow on the upper part of the webpage.
Links have been changed.
Are you sure you can't install the plugin? I can install it with no problem.

Works flawless, takes very very nice shoots
Just what color os needed, to have a perfect camera!
Great work, dude
Edit: gallery button dident work after flash and no odex. File too delete , just installed from zip and gallery works!

Hi I have a problem, the beautify plugin just show blank, but if you take a picture it will take correctly, but it doesn't show anything except darkness

I have heard about this problem. Unfortunately I can't do anything about it - it's related to the original ColorOS ROM and camera. You need to report the problem to Oppo, as it has nothing to do with my mod.
Edit: You (and all having similar problem) might want to see this.

FIrst of all Thank you very much for this mod.
I am bit curious about the image stabilisation options shown in the screenshots. DId you cretae them or you got them somewhere like any leaked version of chinese coloros or something?

Updated to version 0.16!

The stabilization is already present in the code. I only added toggles to control it.

Thanks for clarifying. That means earlier these were ON all the time right. & the mega link doesn't work.

Very nice project... camera bring a new step ith yours mod...
thx...
And to have a custom prez... a gift !

unable to install using txrp (oppo 7a)
Any advice ?
Thanks
P.S.: I'm using the New Version from Chinese .44 (150116) (using twrp)

Tried few minutes ago on Kakulay 2.0.0i using twrp 2.8.4.0...
Work like a charm over Mod beta 15

Mh. Don´t get this to work.
Both files flashed without error. Gallery is working. But Camera isn´t.
It´s for sure flashed on correct folder. But App isn´t shown and if I try to start it doesn´t work.
I´m on 2.0.4. beta and I´m rooted. TWRP is 2.8.4.0

Maybe manage odex files un system/app...
Or you can install as normal app...

Install as normal App doesn't work. Error if I try to install the apk file. Strange thing is that the supermacro plugin is working.

[GCam] [Wide Angle] LG G5,LG G6,LG V20,LG V30 - v4.2

Disclaimer
I am not a developer but I have tried my best to create a port that has most of the basics working on my LG V30. I cannot promise I can fix any bugs for other devices but if I have time, I can try to look into some. This version is based off Scrubber's [4PDA] and uses information I've learned from using and looking at Arnova8G2's, BSG's and others versions. All their work is much appreciated and is the only thing that makes this possible.

Introduction
What is Google Camera (AKA GCam)?
Google Camera is the camera app for the Google Nexus and Google Pixel phones. It is not designed or intended to be run on other phones.
What is HDR+?
Basic: HDR+ is Google's proprietary image processing routine, and is more than just traditional "HDR' modes. HDR+ employs image stacking to control exposure, and also to preserve details, reduce noise, increase sharpness, etc. It is an all-in-one package.
Advanced: https://ai.googleblog.com/2014/10/hdr-low-light-and-high-dynamic-range.html
Google Camera Features
Pixel 1
Zero Shutter Lag (ZSL) HDR+ - The Pixel 1 introduced ZSL HDR+ which means when you open the camera, the system utilizes the Hexagon DSP to constantly buffer frames and marks the time slot of when you pressed the shutter button.
* -- Quote from Marc Levoy via The Verge:
"The moment you press the shutter it's not actually taking a shot — it already took the shot," says Levoy. "It took lots of shots! What happens when you press the shutter button is it just marks the time when you pressed it, uses the images it's already captured, and combines them together."
It's a major usability improvement on the HDR+ mode in last year's Nexus 6P and 5X. "What used to happen last year is you'd press the shutter button and you'd get this little circle going around while it captured the images you need for the burst; now it's already captured those," says Levoy. "And that's big, because that means that you can capture the moment you want."
* -- https://www.theverge.com/2016/10/18/13315168/google-pixel-camera-software-marc-levoy
Pixel 2
Portrait Mode - Simulates bokeh for improved subject separation from the background. The front camera of the Pixel 2 only provides Portrait Mode when a human face is detected, and the rear camera can work on an object, an animal, a human, etc because it uses information from the Dual Pixel PDAF sensor to detect depth. Google Camera ports for non-Pixel phones can NOT do this so all ports for non-Pixel phones utilize the front camera technique for both front & rear (which means all ports for non-Pixel phones can only properly apply bokeh when a human face is detected).
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2017/10/portrait-mode-on-pixel-2-and-pixel-2-xl.html
Motion Photos - Provides short clips of moments before and after you take the photo.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/03/behind-motion-photos-technology-in.html
Pixel 3
Top Shot - When Motion is set to Auto or On, Pixel will recommend a better photo to you if it detects one. Like if you captured a photo when someone blinked.
* -- Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMa1H97zUQ8
Photobooth - Automatically capture a photo when Pixel detects a silly face or a smile.
Super Res Zoom - Enhances zoomed picture quality by purposely shifting the camera module using OIS (Pixel 3 only) to gather more data.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/10/see-better-and-further-with-super-res.html
Motion Metering - On the Pixel 3 Motion Metering is used in the "default photo mode" to detect subject motion and if it detects enough motion, Pixel will shoot with a faster shutter speed to reduce subject blur. The Pixel 1 and 2 get to use this in Night Sight only.
* -- Further reading (about 1/3 down the article): https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/night-sight-seeing-in-dark-on-pixel.html
Synthetic Fill Flash - Pixel 3 will brighten faces in selfies.
Tracking Autofocus - Tap on a subject or area to keep focus when the subject or phone moves.
Learning Based White Balance - Google's attempt to fix white balance for low light photos. Used in Night Sight and HDR Enhanced on the Pixel 3.
* -- Further read (about 1/2 down the article): https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/night-sight-seeing-in-dark-on-pixel.html
Portrait Mode Learned Depth - Pixel 3 improves the rear camera Portrait Mode depth detection for more consistent and more pleasing bokeh.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/learning-to-predict-depth-on-pixel-3.html
This is how the V30's Camera ID's are laid out. My normal lens app uses ID 0 and 1. My wide lens app uses ID 1 and 2.
Camera 0 "LENS_FACING_BACK"
Camera 1 "LENS_FACING_FRONT"
Camera 2 "LENS_FACING_BACK" (wide angle)
I cannot guarantee success on other devices, especially if the phone does not even report all cameras through the Camera2 API (use Camera2Test app to verify your device info). If you are on LineageOS, please consult your dev to see if they can alter the camera ID's to properly match LG stock roms, if my version does not work.

--On first install you may have to click this twice for it to start working
--After this is toggled the side menu will say "Default Camera" to indicate you can switch back
-The Camera Switch icon is green now to try to indicate you can Long Press this to do the same function as above (alternate between rear camera ID's)
-Black Level calculation adjusted to see if purple tint in shadows is fixed
-Updated code of Settings Restart to newest version
-Adjusted detection code for Hexagon DSP so mainly just LG's don't use it automatically

If you have issues, Clearing App Data is recommended. Open "Camera"> Settings>About>View App Settings Page>Storage>Clear Data
LG G6 Lineage users can use the toggle in the wide angle APK to fix their camera ID issue. You must force close the app.
-Renamed standard lens package name to avoid interference with other versions (uninstall your current version)
-Set Use_Photos on by default
-Ported Camera relaunch after going into Settings from namok/SerJo87/Arnova8G2 (no longer have to force close when changing a setting)
-Changed Frame Count to have a faster setting (may be useful for photos of children)
-Added toggle to remove Portrait Mode default zoom level
cstark27 v3.7
-Added Advanced>Disable ZSL Toggle (this switches between Pixel 2 HDR toggle and Nexus 6 No ZSL HDR toggle)
-Added Advanced>Model so users can experiment with phone Models (only for the rear camera). You do not need to adjust this if you don't want to, the default setting is the same as before (AUTO).
-Added Experimental>Use Hexagon DSP and set it to No by default. This used to be "auto", effectively, and on most Snapdragon phones it would be using the Hexagon DSP in previous versions. In my testing I have found better performance when taking multiple photos quickly, by turning this to "no". Let me know your results...
cstark27 v3.6
If you have issues, Clearing App Data is recommended. Open "Camera"> Settings>About>View App Settings Page>Storage>Clear Data
LG G6 Lineage users can use the toggle in the wide angle APK to fix their camera ID issue. You must force close the app.
-Added 5 Exposure Time settings for Adaptive Shutter Speed. "Super Slow" is the same as V3.5. "Very Slow" is about 2x faster and so on and so forth. On my phone "Slow" is not actually Slow and matches normal HDR+ Enhanced speed. But it may change depending on device so I left it.
-Normal APK: Save HDR+ choice after going into Settings (credit Miniuser123)
-Organized Settings>Advanced by grouping all HDR+ Enhanced stuff into a section. Changed a couple strings so they'd be translated to other languages.
-Skip Color Fix if Adaptive Shutter is enabled
-Removed Slow Motion menu item unless you have a LG G5, G6, V20, or V30. BUT, you can enable it in Settings>Experimental.
-Wide APK: Change HDR+ Config to Taimen so ZSL (Zero Shutter Lag) is back, but I've defaulted HDR+ to Enhanced. This won't change until you clear app data or go into settings though.
-Wide APK: Remove Slow Motion menu item
cstark27 v3.5
-Clearing App Data is recommended. Open "Camera"> Settings>About>View App Settings Page>Storage>Clear Data
-Added Advanced>HDR+ Enhanced Portrait Mode : This forces Portrait Mode to use HDR+ Enhanced which will offer better dynamic range but you lose Zero Shutter Lag (Thanks Arnova8G2 for this cool trick)
-Added Advanced>HDR+ Enhanced Adaptive Shutter Speed : This is the Slow Shutter mod from miniuser123. I would say this is "beta" for LG devices. I know on my V30 some tuning is needed to the parameters but I want your guys feedback first. It only affects HDR+ Enhanced. The shutter speed will slow down the darker your scene is. You probably want a tripod or something to prop your phone against, for best sharpness. In normal lighting the shutter speed seems to be the same as before so I don't think it would be a negative to leave this on - but it's your choice and needs testing.
-Added LG G6 Lineage Camera ID Fix toggle to Wide Angle APK so there shouldn't need to be separate Lineage builds for G6 anymore
-Optimizations courtesy of Arnova8G2
cstark27 v3.4
-Added Lens Blur Mode on side menu
-Added Advanced>LG G6 Color Fix from cstark27 v3
-Removed Zero Shutter Lag option from Wide Angle due to issue with very over-exposed highlights. Will be brought back when this issue is fixed.
-Removed Disable ZSL toggle as it did not fix anything and caused more problems
cstark27 v3.3
-IMPORTANT: CLEAR APP DATA after installing. This version changes the configs a little bit so more problems may happen if you do not erase app data.
-Fixed Wide Angle HDR+ Processing with Zero Shutter Lag (ZSL)
-Improved Re-focus after touch to focus
-Added JPEG Quality toggle
-Added Disable ZSL Config: switch between Pixel ZSL or Nexus 6 No ZSL configs
-Adjust look of settings and add About section from Arnova8G2
LG G6 owners: There may still be a purple tint in shadows in low light when using HDR+ Enhanced. I am still working on a solution but it is hard to find without having the device. There are apps that provide a black level offset to correct this but in tests we have seen that only the first HDR+ Enhanced photo is usually purple tinted but remaining photos are fine. Tapping to set focus and exposure also seems to help. I would also try the "Disable ZSL" setting and see if that helps. Huge shoutout at Mefiboshet for all of his testing and letting me pester him with test versions all the time.
2 Separate APK's (download both, they do not require each other though so you can use a different normal lens version if you want):

Oh nice! Already using one of your previous versions. They work very well. Will try the new ones out.

MOD EDIT: OP quote removed
Working great!

Woo you da man
Subscribed ?

It's working great. May I ask if this version has some kind of implementation that reduce the blurriness?
Also I'm using it right now, and I do see that its less blurry? Maybe it's a placebo effect?
Anyway it works great on LG V30
Also thank you very much for your hard work!

I haven't put anything in yet, intentionally, to improve subject blur. But the normal lens is using a different HDR+ config this time which fixed a refocusing issue so it's possible it has other benefits as well I would guess - but I can't say for sure.

Hi Sir, can you add manual/custom blacklevel for front camera?

I think that's it because before when I try to tap to focus I seem to get more blurry picture than if I don't tap to focus.
Does it make your pictures also less blurry as well?

Just a quick T H A N K :good: Y O U !

Thanks very much for your time and effort. I am using both cameras and have had no problems on the V30.. ?

After the latest update... I see this toast coming everytime I capture a pic.... Screenshot attached...

I have not seen the same. I have seen it before on different ports though. Did you clear the app data?

Yes...App data cleared... Before and after install...

@cstark27
I found 2 buges.
1. It always cycle till HDR complete the process, so it takes time to capture another picture.
2. It shows "Saved Metadata" when we immediately go to picture after shooting.
Thank, pls help to fix this!

Hi,
Thanks for your mod it works best on my Nokia 6.
I have only one question: There is no video stabilisation toggle in the settings. Is it enabled or if not could you add this feature?

I'm seeing a toggle for video stabilization in both the regular and wide angle version. It's in the same section as the video resolution.

[HOW TO] Google Camera: enable wide angle and zoom lens

Hi, here you have a tutorial to activate the triple lens with Google Camera:
- Open Gcam, go to advanced/Advanced-Pixel AWB and set it to IMX586
- Reboot the device into recovery mode, mount system and data and go to file manager.
- Once there, move the folder "data/app/org.codeaurora.snapcam-xxxxxxx" to "system-root/system/priv-app"
- Change the folder name to "org.codeaurora.snapcam" and change the "base.apk" name to "org.codeaurora.snapcam.apk"
- Reboot the device, open Gcam and activate the dual lens option.
The only issue is 0.6x activates the zoom and 2x activates the wide angle.
But now we can use the other lenses to take a video and ejoy the quality of this camera

:good:
Thanks for sharing man.

100x zoom

I can't seem to find this feature. My normal camera mode can go to 6x and pro mode can go to 10x. None of the tutorials I've seen work. They're all from when the phone was released so is it possible the feature has been removed?
It looks like there's supposed to be three buttons on the camera screen to choose the camera to shoot with but I don't see these options. I'd appreciate some info from users who can use this feature.

100x is only available on the S20 Ultra

1. Open back camera. (Dont select 108 mp) S20 Ultra
2. Press on the single tree like icons on screen.
3. You will see different zoom options. (Screenshoot)

That worked!
That did it! I had 108mp selected. Thanks!

GCam photos at night with Custom color RGB flash light (Without Root)

Asus has limited the use of Secondary RGB flash (which is the second flashlight, which never turns on by any means). It can only work if you have an armored number case. It is pretty much useless otherwise. There are apps developed for Customizing RGB flash but you need to root your device before doing anything.
But now, you can use that secondary colorful flashlight in Gcam while taking photos or videos and even in night sight
the only drawback is that you cannot use Gcam in fullscreen mode!!!
let's get into it:
prereqs
Make sure you are on the latest firmware version.
download and install gcam (Wichaya preferred)
Steps:-
1. Turn on system lighting from armoury crate
2. Set the screen on condition and choose static / color cycle or your preferred lighting condition
3. Select the color you want (if you selected static) and click save.
(check if the rog logo is lighted up)
4. open Calculator (you read that right) and type .12345+=
(your phone will enter SMMI test)
5. Find and select Aura and bump led at the bottom
6. click start After 5 cycles (Max) of RGB test the RGB flashlight will dance per condition
if you close this app the Bumper led will stop So...
7. go to recent page Select multitask window.(the RGB will pause momentarily Don't worry)
8. open Gcam it will open at the top or bottom of the screen and the RGB will function as long as you have the SMMI test app running at the top
9. Now you can shot beautiful pics with the color of your favorite as your Filter/ background without editing
10. Enjoy...
ASUS stock camera doesn't open in multiwindow mode. so we can't able to use that...
