GCAM, Working on which roms ? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello Guys,
Yesterday I got my bootloader unlocked and after that, jnstalled the Pixel Experience. But, I found no gcam version working properly.
Reading here and miui forum, I realized that in some ROMs it is working like a charm (RR, for example).
So, im asking you guys, to comment here, which ROM are you using, and if it is working 100%.
Here:
ROM: Havoc OS.
Gcam: No HDR+ on front, black screen everytime.
Thank you all.

Doesnt matter which rom, indian RN5 works good with gcam, global/china RN5 doesnt have fully working gcam.

I'm using
- pixel experience 9.0 // August build
- Arnova's v8.1: GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.1.apk (Arnova8G2, 2018-07-22)
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/#apk391
Magisk modules
- HAL3 enabler - camera2 API support (if you have PE extended you don't need this one)
- RN5 camera patch module
(@rn5cpm , telegram group where you can find the link for miui and pie and support the dev)
Optional
- OP3/3T front camera fix - Oreo
( It is the only module that allows me to use hdr+ and portrait mode with the front camera, without any bugs)
With this build everything works fine without (almost) any crash, even the 240fps slow motion.
Stock xiaomi camera works too, sometimes it crashes, but with the Google cam I don't think you'll need to use it again.
Edit - update
Sometimes when I take a picture with the front facing camera in hdr+ it might be all black, but if I take a picture with the back camera and then switch to the front one it works again. I know it's a little bit tricky and I still don't completely understand why it happens , but it works in this way and it's not a big issue to me.

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?

[MAGISK][APP][FIX]Google Camera with HDR+ on FRONT/BACK, Portrait mod fix and Guides

As everyone was asking for some guides and fixes of the Google Camera on our Mi Note 3 device, I decided to help you out with a guide and all necessary resources to get it working.
First of all, for people new to Google Camera, follow @dimi89 's guide as an introduction to all processes needed to achieve a working camera port.
To make it simple, you need to:
Unlock bootloader
Flash TWRP or boot it through fastboot (there are plenty of guides here)
Install Magisk systemless root through TWRP recovery
Flash my fixes module below to enable Camera 2 API and make front camera working as desired
Install the best APK for you from https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Be happy
Until now, we had it working but some features like Portrait mode, front camera HDR+ and portrait, plus front camera flash were missing.
With the help of @defcomg I managed to make a Magisk Module as a bundle that does both enabling Camera2API and adds necessary libs to fix the camera. You can download it below.
As per the apk of the GCam on your device, I recommend latest Arnova8G2 version. You can also find it at the bottom of this post. It is great and does not require any other settings after you apply the fix in Magisk.
Downloads here:
-Camera2API, Portrait mode + HDR on front camera fix (MAGISK MODULE) - https://mega.nz/#!M5gjSQxJ!K5Q4XmdRimI_x2xpOWexHR52qUi5sklOV7SVhWWo9RE
-Stable and autoconfig GCam - https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/...eCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9.apk
For any other questions, feel free to ask me.
IMPORTANT!! The fix for front cam may not work with all ROMs. It was tested on the following:
XIAOMI.EU Stable 9.5.4.0
XIAOMI.EU Stable 9.2.x.x
XIAOMI.EU Developer 8.3.22
Lineage OS
AOSP Extended
You can test it on your device on your own risk. If it does not work you can delete module from magisk.
Credits to @defcomg for the help with the library, @WebDingo for the magisk module and @Arnova8G2 for the amazing work with all GCam ports. Also crediting other developers for their great additions to this community.
Enjoy!
Great job
Great job Gcam now works very well, the only thing I noticed is that is laggy at times in portrait mode. Is it normal?
will it work on my mi5s?
Thank you, its working! Mi Note 3 xiaomi.eu 9.5.4.0

Anyone have flash via twrp fix version ?
Thanksss. With arnova v6 (and this beta) works fine. So I've a problem but...you have 60 FPS video? For me is ever 30 FPS and I search in every part of the web the way to have got 60 FPS in full hd. For me is very important. If you know a way, please tell me (also use another new custom ROM). Thanks

No, you shouldn't have any issue with that.

What's the current status of enabling HAL3 on 9.0 Roms?

Apologies if this has been asked before, I haven't been a regular here because of PE 9.0's excellent System Update feature.
Earlier (back in April 2018), I tried enabling HAL3 in build.prop to use GCam ports which resulted in my front camera not working in Skype/WhatsApp/Duo - a very important requirement for me as I do a lot of video calling. So, I switched back to stock PE ROM, without HAL3 enabled and have been using the stock Cam ever since.
I'm currently looking to test Gcams again as they are really exiting (Night Mode woot!) and wanted to know if the issue fixed now? Also, what is the best GCam version currently?

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 .

Doesn't open Videos and just crashes. Cant capture any videos, though camera is working.
Not working on PixelOS.
I can confirm, I installed the zip using MM and it did nothing on PixelOS (Mc5G)
I hope it gets fixed. In the mean time, I'm searching through GCams and XMLs. My favorite everything works except the selfie cam. Another only has main+selfie but I love its auto-night-shot feature. Another works with everything but I don't like how you switch lenses and it is missing some features of the other two. I've tried about 8 other ones but am now choosing between the above 3. If someone has a GCam+XML that works 100% please link.
EDIT: Actually, it doesn't install. MM says it installs, logs look good, but upon reboot MM has nothing about it in the module list.
Installed. Crashes on quite a bit on portrait. Crashes on video occasionally. swiping left or right to each tool seems to work a little better.
thanks
