From what I understand, you're trying to install the APK on OnePlus 5. It won't run on OnePlus 5.
The APK itself even after installing on Sony stock ROM can only be accessed through Sony camera app.

I don't think it's that simple or maybe I'm not aware of it. But the background defocus app works by taking two photos to get the blur effect since Xperia phones are not yet equipped with dual cameras.
Since OnePlus 5 is equipped with dual camera, you can use Google camera app (Given that OnePlus has enabled Camera2 API). By doing this you'll get superior quality images compared to background defocus app.
People using Xperia phones are worried because Sony has not enabled Camera2 API fully. You have a dual cam and most probably Camera2 API enabled. I suggest you to try Google camera.

Hey plz can someone upload the official camera apk of oppo find 7a ! I would like to use it on other devices !
It won't work, most probably.
Download ROM file, extract camera Oppo and his librairies and try to test on your device...
Since I created a topic with the camera apk some time ago and it's just a few topics below this one, I consider that solution unnecessary...
Download the Nexus5/oneplus one camera apk... Works pretty good w/CM11 and Find7
Even better, try the Lenovo Super Camera.

Dunno. It has a ton of features, and includes a gallery. Originally it had some reading-sms permissions, a popup thing and a QR code reader, which have been removed.

The LOS camera, i.e. Snapdragon camera, is great, probably better than Sony stock camera.
Alternately, you can try OpenCamera, very good too.

To force external-sd saving, you can use the magisk module Magic Folder Binder

can LOS14.1 cope with other camera ports? is it worth trying to make camera quality better using port?

There are several HTC camera ports available on XDA, you can try them (anyway always backup first...)
Do note I have an Xperia Z5 so results may vary for you, but I've found best results using the ProShot app, it's worked amazingly on several different phones I've tested so I'd imagine it would work well on a Z1 as well. Definitely worth looking into.

Original post by Charles_I: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3477980
https://chromloop.com/2017/12/apk-enable-portrait-mode-nexus-5x6p-og-pixel-phone-google-camera-mod/
Camera NX V7.3 is a Google Camera mod, which is modified to unlock most of the exclusive features of Pixel 2 for Nexus 2015 and original Pixel phones. with this updated version, you can get the Portrait mode working with Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P and Pixel 2016 phones, which was the last Pixel 2’s exclusive feature.
Portrait mode was the most wanted feature for Nexus and Pixel 2016 users. I have considered that Portrait mode is a hardware limiting feature, it requires a special type of image data called PD (Pixel detector?) to enable Portrait mode, but some said Portrait mode can be active with front camera, I began to thinking that this feature should be able to work in software way which we can force to enable it on other phones. Turns out, Google uses PD data to calculate portrait effect on the Back lens while use software method on the Front lens.
We need the camera.experiment2017 library to active the Pixel 2 exclusive functions. thanks to the*Apk changer, the first tool which can deodex the Android 8.1 odex files. I force to enable the PD data model in the camera.experiment2017 library, which is telling camera app to enable Portrait mode. Portrait mode will replace the Lens-blur mode in the menu, it provides the face-retouching feature on both front and back camera, and it needs a human face to do the portrait effect job, it will take two burst photos, one is normal ZSL HDR+ photos, the other is applied the portrait effect. if no human face shows up, you will get one normal photo.
https://chromloop.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Portrait-mode-on-Nexus-5X-with-Camera-NX-mod.png
Camera NX V7.3 is based on Google Camera 5.1.016, why not the latest 5.1.018 version? because they are the same app with different version numbers. I decide to disable the Google photos combination, as it has the black screen issue, though this issue can be solved by totally replace the original Google camera in the system, it needs the same signature and provider name. I also remove the Help and Feedback in settings, and disable the silence feedback service, to make the app launching a little faster.
The new version was tested on my Nexus 5X, should work on Nexus 6P and Pixel 2016 phones too. I will also provide the modified AR Sticker and AR Core app for Nexus 5X/6P, you can use it without change phone model or add files to the system, you can use other AR sticker mod if you like. I was thinking AR Core is still in beta status, bugs like upside down photo on Nexus 5X, too many things need to be fixed in the future, so no need to make it perfect at this moment.

Maybe.. I don't know, but it should work on +7.1. Here working perfect on stock Oreo
Edit: It works only on Oreo
It may convince me to finally make the jump from 7.1.1, does this eliminate the need for phone tilting for background blur now?

Yes it does.
It works exactly like the Pixel 2 camera. Just select Portrait mode and shoot. It also works like a charm with the front camera.
very good results! I am impressed! Thanks for sharing.
I was able to overcome parsing error by using APK editor Pro and changing the SDK version back to 25.
App installs, but hangs every time I launch.
Help would be great

Some little update and A few new.
Apps from XZ2 working on XZ Premium check on other Oreo models. Soundenhancement, fingerprint service, cametracommon, 3D Scan, Dialer 10.0, New look Xperia Assist, LockscreenSettings, and some new apps like XperiaX loops,themes, SmartCleaner, overlay file etc.
Only camera and settings apk not working on xz premium.
Needed port I try but not effect yet. I thing it is possible. Setting Has a new icon.
Onehand.APK must be activate with quickshorcutmaker from play store but for me still not working I thing we must modify settings.apk for this)
Files can be unpacked with new version UNSin 1.8! DUMP
DynamicVibration.apk can be installed and activated with Ccswe activities "show icon"
And copy from build.prop all line with "vibration" . But I can not see the difference with use in xz premium with convetional vibration system

Firstly, Sony's stock camera app is bound to Sony's kernel, Sony's DRM and some other Sony things.
Secondly, AFAIK, it's designed for use with the particular image sensor, and it, possibly, won't function with any other sensor, as there are no "universal settings", but sensor-based.
Use Snapcamera HDR, that's my personal choice.

Those apk are totally useless, they are only the interface to activate these features.
All the code for vibration and onehand is inside framework code, thousands of code lines are needed.

Exactly.
The people were asking for these apk's and so I've attached these. The whole framework needs to be ported ( if can be done ) then only these applications will function.

Yes,I'm download many version and install use it but it always not responding....
But finally I found one version of it that can be use in Sony Xperia XA1 ULTRA.(Maybe is the only one version that can be use)
And that is MGC_5.1.018_v2e_tolyan009_v1.3.6_manual_focus.apk or MGC_5.1.018_v2e_tolyan009_v1.3.6.apk
yes technically it is two version but hey the different is just can manual focus and not manual focus only
FYI:Sony XA1 ULTRA have camera2 api,no need to install rom.
But using this app is pretty useless,because sony doesn't support HDR+,slow motion,portrait mode,panorama,photo sphere,raw photo and etc.
Support feature is only lens blur.(Maybe got some feature that can be use but I miss it)Some situation using this feature is pretty good though.
And yes why I'm still love taking photo using this app is because oem camera app taking photo time was too long!!! :crying:
Taiwan forum got some buddy using this version at there Sony Xperia Z5.(So maybe is the only version that can be use in Sony mobile??)
Comment it and let me know about it.

You can try and install it.If you can use it Then congratulation for you because I can't use it
IV been around
Sony has a modified camera api 2 support. Unless someone makes a port that's universal you will never get the google camera to do slow motion. And yes i'v noticed it's slow when using hdr. Using a different camera app will not give you access to some features sony offers. I get it the camera is slow sometimes, but your giving up decent features for load time. I think maybe your thinking your taking a step foward but really a step back. Maybe multiples. If you truly want google cam, you need to drop stock and find a way to compile aosp. Which sony dev stop supplying access to kernel sources which means no more aosp for xa1 ultra. After this oreo update, I heard this could be its last update and declared eol. End of life
