Hello guys,
I was asking myself -seeing as there's a GCam port that works for our device- if it's possible to port the Samsung Galaxy A8's camera app for our Galaxy A series 2017?
Daylight pictures using HDR are pretty good, but having to select HDR mode everytime gets tiring. I've read the A8 has auto HDR with instant capture unlike the ~1s processing on our device.
I'm not demanding this app to be ported, just asking if it's possible and if some dev decides to do it I would be grateful for his work independently of the results.
Thank you.
That would be nice.

i have upgraded my gnex to android 4.2 but the hdr button on the stock camera is missing, i have searched this problem on google and then i found some article, it says that you have to download some additional lib files which is "libmmcamera_hdr.so" i downloaded and put it to the system/lib and changed the permissions, but still i cannot find any hdr button, anyone can help ??
thanks in advance
I think the HDR function is a N4 feature, not available on our hardware.
Galaxy nexus doesnt support HDR. Its all about hardware

Not all about hardware(it might due to slow shutter but it's not limited because of hardware).. in fact HDR is a software it is really simple technique. Google think HDR is so advanced photo taking technique only N4 with quad core can take it but in reality any camera can take HDR even film camera
So there's no mod to get HDR?
Could CM Mod it and we'd get it?
I know there's an app on the play store that mimics the AOSP Camera app perfectly so could that be our only future solution for HDR since it will copy it?
So far it's only at 4.1.2. The developer got to update his UI for 4.2.
Well, just use a proper camera to take hdr photos..
And the auto ones usually looks like a vomit of colors..........
Hello everyone,
Can someone tell me who experienced the Samsung Galaxy S6 with Marshmallow update? Do the camera has the Manual Shutter speed in "Pro Mode"? If yes, How far its worth having as just a software update? Will it work properly without the actual hardware mechanism upgrade?
I do take lots of photos with my S6.. So, i want to know if the shutter speed is actually functioning properly as intended, specifically in Low light.
Any information you provide will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

No one has tested it yet??
Yes in the Pro mode you can adjust the iso the shutter speed, from 1/24000 to 10 seconds, also you can save your pictures in RAW format
Anyone tried porting the S7 camera modes? Like Dual Camera etc. Not satisfied with Sports shorts and Animated Gift on the Galaxy Apps store.
Tried it but it's force stopping.
Any answer will greatly appreciated.
hi !
i suggest "open camera" app with more options and better management for better photo quality :good:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera&hl=fr
good feedback here (french ,sorry...) : http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/l-appareil-photo-du-galaxy-a5-2017-t168418.html
I really appreciate your input. However, I was referring to the Camera Modes like (HDR, PANORAMA, SPORTS SHOT, ANIMATION GIF etc.). S7/other galaxy phones has like virtual tour, dual camera, surround shot etc.
Does anyone tried porting this modes to ASeries 2017?
ok ,i see...
well...the problem of this section : it really miss some devs ,maybe theses A series are too young...maybe more and more devs leak out Samsungs ...
i have seen many ports of s7 s8 camera on other sections of xda ,maybe it could work...
Was wondering if anyone knows if the A50 can shoot RAW DNG?
Has anyone accomplished this? I am guessing this phone doesn't come Camera2Api enabled. If so wondering if anyone has confirmed that the A50 can shoot raw/dng maybe with root and enabling the C2API
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried using the Google camera apk?
The google camera app keeps crashing so thats not a option
Any solution here ? Other blogs indicate A50 may not shoot raw - eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-a-series/galaxy-a-series-raw-photo-capture-better-camera-functionality/td-p/1547514
Thanks !

you can't friend shoot in raw format. nor do I handle the shutter speed ... the truth is that the a50 camera at night is terrible ... I come from the g6 plus c the gcam and it is terrible how I took photos ... I created a post asking if they would change it to the Samsung a50 for a g8 plus that has Snapdragon and allows you to take decent night photos ... but hey, no one answered me .. I'm not sure what to do because they offered me a g8 plus but the super amoled screen of the a50 and the mirror function of the smartview on the other hand make me not want to change it ...
I saw this article yesterday on a new version of the Google camera from the new Pixel 6 that works on my Note 20 Ultra (snapdragon). Link to the apk is in this article below. Gizchina.com: How to download and install Google Pixel 6 camera app on other smartphones.

Haven't had time to play around with it much yet but first picture is with the gcam, 2nd with my regular Note camera app. Don't see much difference, but maybe in better lighting...
Works on exynos also, exept for the 10x and bigger zoom so telescopic camera is useless.

Thanks for sharing this. Great find!
I installed the 10/31/2021 release from BSG on my Note 20 Ultra - N986U1 (Snapdragon) on One UI 3.1 (Android 11) and it seems to work well.
Heck, it might be the most stable Google Camera Port I've used.
The front-facing camera doesn't work for pictures (thanks Samsung) but it does work for recording video.
Besides that, all the other modes I've briefly tested seem to work.
Thanks for sharing this link! Am waiting to see if anyone in the S21 (Regular) group has tried this with success... Just curious, on your Ultra model - are you able to use some of the newer features such as Motion, Face Unblur, Magic Eraser?

I believe there is a config file for samsung you need or a stting you have to change. I had the same problem when I installed it on my s21 ultra, the camera froze. Also the eraser feature was missing. I tried installing the google photos using Split APKs Installer but no luck. Would love to know if anyone using a samsung got these feature to work.
I've tried this on my Note 20 Ultra Exynos and have the same experience where the camera freezes and app closes, if anyone had any advice on how to fix or help I would really appreciate, this could be such a great camera app
This completely broke my camera for all apps.
Had to restart my phone several times to get the camera to work again.
Seems that it doesn't work for me. When I click the shoot button doesn't save anything. Shows some black pictures, which also can't be found in the gallery app.
This gcam has been working flawlessly for months on my Note 20 Ultra snapdragon. Takes sharper pictures overall than stock app, especially of my dog

Looks like better dynamic range, I have been using a previous GCAM version with great success (especially night time photography on a tripod), but I think I'll give this one a try. Thanks!

I've been using this GCAM version for awhile and it's stable and works fine on my Note 20 Ultra. Definitely takes better pictures indoors of my dog and a little better dynamic range. Nice alternative to stock camera app for some pix.
