Gcam HDR+ on the S9?

Hey guys, really considering the S9 but will likely be modding it a bit.
If anyone's got it and doesn't mind testing quickly, does Gcam HDR+ work on either SD or Exynos variants? I believe the one from this thread is the most up-to-date.
Seriously hoping we'll eventually be able to pick which aperture to use in Gcam

Visit this site and download every version of the app. I am using on my LG G5 and it's working very well. I have tested it on samsung galaxy s7 with exynos and also worked very well.

Thanks, but yeah I have tested extensively on my S7 and know how well it works. I was just wondering if it works as well on the S9, which I don't have.

Doesnt work... Just tested it on Exynos 9+

Latest version (V8) force closes. However, version 7 seems to work fine.

Thanks for testing guys. I just bought mine so will post my tests after Tuesday.

I just get a black screen when trying pretty much any settings combo, what settings are you using?

Same here. V8 and recently released 8.1 FC immediately on the S9+, but V7 works fine.
What configuration are you using for HDR+?

I don't use it. It was merely for testing purposes. I've always been happy with Samsung's stock camera.

I think GCam works way better with Snapdragon models.

what makes you think that?
I have heard it was working better on exynos most of the time
unless you are talking about only s9

The one I use is MGC_5.1.016_7.0+C2API_v.1.3c_AllinOne.apk, HDR+ works fine and makes a noticable difference in certain scenarios, best of both
All others with portrait mode enabled either black screen or force close.

Unfortunately i don't take that many photos, they're mostly of my dog
It works well enough for me on the Exynos s9 plus but i can;t compare to the s7
No portrait mode currently

That port doesnt apply post processing...
Not any works in Galaxy s9 like the miniuser one in s8

I tried some version from the site and that you all said on the s9+ exynos but very buggy and almost dont work...
there is some stable version+settings that work well?with portrait and all?
the samsung camera app is suck in term of colors and some "pop"

Doesn`t the normal SD chipset work for everyone not on the exynos chip?
Holding my fingers crossed for a Exynos port of the Gcam for the Ultra. Even with the camera update it seriously smears the texture on photos and have had some horrible portrait photos as a result.
Most annoying part is that if you use the pro mode you get excellent results without any smeared skin tones but using the main camera set on auto without bixby scene detection and 12mp binned photos it sure looks like **** most of the time.
I think Samsung REALLY needs to improve a lot on the camera or it will be the biggest camera failure in the last 10 years....
So unless you mainly post to instagram and actually want to print pictures I suggest you use the 108mp setting and give it a quick sharpening in snapseed (or lightroom for some much needed defringing and sharpening)
So I´m holding out hope for a Gcam port for us stuck with the Exynos chipset that seems to produce slightly worse then the Snapdragon powered Ultra.
Other then that, I love the S20 Ultra and a worthy upgrade from my old S8+

The need for HDR in bright daylight is almost non exsistent.

I cant understand. I have oneplus 6.... crapy photie... I gave up and bought S20 Ultra... even crappier photos..... what is going on?????
With gcam one plus 6 photos almost looks great...
Should I sell S20 and buy Xiaom 10?
Hardware in S20 should be much better than in mi 10... but looks like software is crap??
Thank you for suggestions

What do you suggest?

if you can get snapdragon go for s20 if not just go for oppo xfinder x2 or mi 10 pro if camera is important for you, if you want the best camera go for p40 check dxomark.com for camera rankings although p40 have no google services but can be installed in less than 10 minutes

So for EU (Exynos) version of S20 Ultra there is no hope?

Hi,

I use ZGCAM vers.917 on my EXYNOS S20 Ultra (XEF) :
-Night mode front and back
-PhotoBooth
-Photo Sphère (bugs sometimes)
-Slow Motion
-Zoom
-Video
-Google Lens
-Portrait (back and Front)
-Panorama
pictures looks better with stock in most of the cases (Night shoots) but with the correct settings i think GCAM will be much better than stock.
with the virus it's hard for me to spend a lot time outside to find the best set up but i think it's a good begining.
I can't share my pictures or setting for the moment( need 10 usefull posts before..)
let me know if you need more details

It is working!!
First app that has worked for me until now
Thank you very much
Do you know the best settings to use this cam on auto? Never worked with Gcam before

This Samsung device has really good features. I am impressed by the super AMOLED display and the battery section. Even the Mediatek Helio G80 chipset also looks good.

I agree. People looking for good gaming smartphones in mid-range should go for this. The Helio G80 chipset has excellent performance.

Good choice and Samsung galaxy A32 is a really good smartphone with all its specs. I think the camera section and the Helio G80 chipset are the best.

seems like the galaxy a32 has good performance because of the 8GB RAM and the helio G80 processor it carries

Wow. People seem to be really satisfied with the device and this is a proof that the Mediatek gaming chipset is working really well in the smartphone.

As a photographer, I am always on the lookout for smartphones with really good cameras but which aren’t too pricey. The Galaxy A32 comes with the Helio G80 processor meets those requirements.

Someone know how to root It?

It's not possible yet, but if first custom Recovery is arrive for the devices we will able to do that.

Is the A32 G4 compatible with HDMI? If so, which adapter is compatible?
I tested it with an USB-C to HDMI adapter and it doesn't seem to work

Actually i don't have any experience about Android Development, we are waiting first Recovery landed for our devices. Hope soon will be, because other new A series already got Recovery.

Hello guys, I need to change my phone and I was thinking in this model. Here in Argentina they only sell the 4G model with 4 Gb RAM. It seems the camera is pretty good although the camera app unfortunately lacks several features that other phones bring for more control. But I've been watching some videos on YouTube and most of them say that the sound is pretty bad and low. I know it's mono, but a youtuber compared it live to a Moto G30 and the difference was truly overwhelming. Has anyone here heard it first hand? Could you share more information in that regard? Thank you very much in advance!

Does the S20 with LineageOS work worse than the S10?

Hello,
I still use my Galaxy S7, but now the battery is so weak that it's time for something new.
So I was just on eBay and I was surprised that the Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S10 are traded for the same price (400 € in mint condition).
I like the S20 (normal version) because of its larger battery, but before I hit the buy button I thought to myself, "First see if there are any problems with LineageOS ...".
So I went here to the forum, and stumbled across this:

I am still surprised how people don't need any of the 2 additional cameras in their phones since they are not working with this ROM.
Do you simply not care about taking wide angle or tele (pseudo zoom) pictures and put far more weight on the "lightness" of Lineage?
And does this ROM have a setting for VoWiFi to "prefer WiFi" over mobile network?

Can someone please tell me if there is a solution in sight.
If it takes a few more weeks it's not a problem for me, I just want to know if it's worth waiting for.
And I don't use GoogleApps, are there any other problems with the Galaxy S20 or should I rather take the Galaxy S10?
thanks for your help

is redmi note 9 worth buying in 2022/3/x?

Hello, is redmi note 9 good to buy in 2022 I am currently thinking of buying 3 devices redmi 9 redmi note 8 redmi note 9 And the best performance among them, according to the extensive search between them, is the redmi note 9, but when I search for a long time, I see that members face many problems such as slow and when I enable Lte, it returns to e and when I buy the phone I immediately think of updating it to android 12 and also you cannot change your phone system without Happening problem I also tried to make a comparison between the phone and the newer versions but I don't like amoled screens because the newer versions of xiaomi are all amoled I hate AMOLED screens because when something simple is broken, such as accidentally dropping the screen from the hand, it gets a complete break of the screen and the requirements for changing the screen are very expensive and I always drop my phone Huawei y6 prime 2018 with an IPS screen and I think IPS screens are the best for me For me, other than this, to enter the redmi note 11 into the qualifiers and it was the winner

Ya Sure, IT works pretty Well With lineageos 19+a12

Definitely no. The MediaTek in this phone is straight garbage and you will feel so embarrassed in front of everyone when you will get a random crash or freeze.

Well, if you like suffering with this crap, then okay....

Also, this phone is already sold out and reached its EOL support. I can tell you that when I dropped this phone twice and I already have a black bar going through the LCD panel itself. AMOLED is much better if you have a nice and thick glass.

Obviously, the answer to the thread is: no.
Just buy any most recent Redmi Note x/y/z.
There is nothing to discuss here.
