black cam fix for gcam? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

hey, is there a fix for black frontcam pictures in gcam or maybe a version with portrait mode and possibility to disable hdr for frontcam?
all pics with gcam and hdr enabled in frontcam just turn black

Try an alternative port/version of the app.
My phone is off and charging at present, but I believe I'm using: -
MGC_5.2.022_1.0.apk (BSG, 2018-05-31)
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Why didn't you post in this thread, instead of starting a new one?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/themes/google-camera-mod-bsg-t3784060

this is a common error for Redmi Note 5 AI / Global / China.
it's due to our omnivision fron sensor not procesing the pic size correctly or something like that. I asked @defcomg for help and he is looking at some logs and sending me so things to try. I think we should make a thread for our device specific bug.

I agree on opening a thread for this specific bug so that someone might help I guess or it maybe highlighted.

Yeah, we are patiently waiting for hdr+ on front camera...

hello thogether, i finally found a fully working gcam.
i started a new threat for this!
have fun blitzkid
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/themes/gcam-black-frontcam-pics-t3800851

It works for me too, but only the first time. If I go to the gallery and come back or any other action and come back, it doesn't work... black photo again... Any solution?

Same problem here. It worked for a while and then stopped. Any solution? Only black photos with front camera and hdr

Update.from 8.8.30 till 8.9.3 Miui version gcam didnt have "washed out" colors.unfortunately from 8.9.4 they return....but thanks to NatronCH and extremegreat we got the solution from version 8.9.4 and after. flash this fix for washed out colors
https://www.filedropper.com/polarisfixgcamcolors theres also a magisk module for color fix also. https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4591757&d=1536468359. BEST WORKING NEW VERSION. https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/MGC_5.3.015_MI8_V1a.apk
I have tried several on MIUI China Dev rom. Whenever you activate any of the HDR functions, the camera starts to lag significantly and it is not possible to take any pictures. I think that someone reported it working on the P preview rom though.
Edit: I have just tried some latest version of Arnvoa Gcam port and portrait mode works perfectly.
Although the HDR effect does not apply, the portrait mode works for both front and back camera.
The only problem is a blue-ish tint on the front camera. But it works!

Nice to hear this. Does HDR+ works on both Rear and front camera?
Does the front camera go up side down?
HDR+ works on both front and rear cameras. Front camera does not go up side down.
The versions mentioned are not working with hdr+ mode. When you shot and try to see the photo is missing the "hdr proccesing" msg. Any other version i tryied its just lagging the camera when try to setup (ie nexus 6 or pixel2)...

Not work hdr+ on mix 2s( checked for MIUI and Android p. Two options: the photo is taken without HDR+ or the camera application is closed
Xiaomi Mix 2S IMX363 sensor have very similar spec comparing to Google Pixel 2. I think if the Google Camera Mod is fixed, it would give the very close result of what Pixel 2 get. Just like the Mi 5s got the same sensor as Pixel 1.
I tried most versions with my Mix 2s on Global ROM 9.5.18.0 and when I try to use portrait mode it freezes and stops working. The portrait mode on the default cam app sucks hard!

I agree, it is REALLY bad. The camera overall can take pretty good pictures but the portrait mode shots look terrible when the subject is a person. There's a ton of detail lost and their faces look washed out and smoothed out somehow.
Someone can post me a link to download the miui camera app?
I've the dp2 ROM and I've forgot to backup it
(You can simply use amaze file manager and go in the app manager menu to backup it)

I agree. The stock camera uses the tele photo lens above the standard lens to make portrait mode pictures. I've only found great/acceptable results taken portrait mode fotos in broad daylight. Anything taken in doors are useless. Shame, as the standard sensor is so much better and comparable to the pixel phones in terms of capabilities.
Hungry for Gcam port to 2s that works as good as they do on the Mix 2.

Doesn't work on Huawei P20 Pro
Works good on Mate 10 Lite
Can't seem to lower the shadow levels in saturation settings??
Yup, its working on my honor 9 lite like boom but 1 thing I would like to as is that it supports any image stabilisation or not.
Chromatic aberration
Hi everybody and a BIG thank to the developer and all those who contribute to this app... Although it's not perfect, it does everything fine, my h9l is finally taking wonderful (for the price) shots..the only big problem I have found is that in presence of strong peak of lights (windows, sun, or simply lights in the background) it sometimes produces chromatic aberrations, turning these sources of lights to violet, I don't know how to attach images....does it happen to you too? If so, how can we file this bug to the developer?

Tried this camera mod app on my Huawei P20 Lite. Here are some of my observations so far:
- The Slow Motion mode's not working, it force closes the app when selecting the said mode.
- Images produced from the front camera were bad & incomplete - maybe it has something to do with an error on how the images were processed.
- The color of the images produced from the rear camera (HDR/HDR+ enabled), were a bit dull, different from what you see on the screen before the picture was taken. Adjusting the Saturation level usually fixes it. Though I noticed that the higher the saturation level is, the more prominent the pink tint will be. Maybe its just about finding the right saturation level.
- HDR / HDR+ produced images were a hit or miss. Will try this outdoors when I get the chance.
- Portrait mode & Photo Sphere works.

change the saturation level from settings as per your liking...keep it as 2.5 and 3 / 3 and 3.5...it goes to photos directly..but it should be there on default gallery too..potrait mode shots will go to to others section...

1. slow motion bug is there for all devices..its not working on even flagships
2. no such issues here..since its a test build mainlly in alpha stage..u might be facing it..wait for the next releases from the developers..
3. pink tint problem is to our device specifically i think..since its not a dedicated port for our device ,we will have to separately tell the developer abt it
4. will get better with next builds...in outdoors it works very well

Google Camera is finally here people ??

Yes you read it correct our long wait is over now. Now we too can enjoy the amazing processing of gcam. Everything works like a charm and there is a significant improvement in the quality. I'm sure this will get better as this is obiously an early build.
And it's not the pixel 2 camera but it's the pixel 3 one!..
Here's what works:
*Portrait mode on both front and back cams(only on humans)
*HDR+, HDR+ enhanced
*Panorama (super glitchy for now)
*And pretty much everything else
*Night mode ( slight improvements only)
*Photo Sphere
Here's what doesn't work:
*Live Google lens
At first the images will look dead.So after you install it you need to increase the saturation. Go to settings , bsg mod settings , saturation and change saturation of front and back cam.
Literally all the credit goes to @xdaakhil for digging this up. If you want to thank someone thank him.
Well my thanks button is down there too ?
Working on :
Honor 9 Lite
Honor 7X
Honor P Smart
Mate 10 Lite
P20 Lite
Honor 6x
keep testing
Edit: video and photos sphere works after changing the default storage to internal. Don't know why it doesn't work with the SD card?
Photo sphere is also very buggy
Photos cannot be clicked without enabling HDR+ or HDR+ enhanced.
There is a pinkish tint on highlights. This can be overcome if you guys focus on the lit(highlights) part by tapping on the viewfinder.
This port can work without root or any modifications.

? Don't know why that happened. Try downloading it again.
To those of you who who don't know why portrait only work on humans:
Gcam doesn't utilise the secondary camera that comes with the device as pixel phones have a single lens setup. The portrait is completely software based. You can check this, cover the secondary lens and click a portrait pic, it'll work!
This is also very useful as we will get good quality blur and edge detection like flagships in our budget phones as the software processing is the same in both apps.
So the camera cannot detect Dept between the subject and background as it only uses one lens.
Hello,
please, tell me, did you find optimal settings of gcam for our phone? Saturation and HDR+? I am testing it but I am not finding the perfect combination yet.

Well im also a bit confused about the perfect match.
But this is what I use:
Pixel 3 as the input method in both front and rear cams(for the super res zoom to work)
Saturation, rear cam highlights 2.7 shadow 2.9
Front cam highlights 2.2 shadow 2.6
Tweak around yourself but I couldn't get the cam to take a picture like it is shown in the viewfinder and the skin tones are better in the viewfinder than the final photo ( the details are far better though)
Thank you Fredin. I will test it.
Been lurking for a while, just registered to say thanks, works nicely the difference is pretty big! Panoramic mode is slow and buggy for me but photosphere does the same thing anyway and works well, lastly, is the RAW picture supposed to look really low resolution like it does for me?
It's working on P Smart as well, will be testing more tomorrow.

Yeah the raw shots do look like it's of low quality(don't know why). But since this build wasn't built for us this is really good.
Only if someone ports the camera for Kirin devices.

I'm not sure as slow motion recording requires hardware support which our phones dosent have.
Normally phones (including ours) records in 30 or 60 fps which is good for taking normal videos but not for slow-mo recording. All the apps you see in playstore just slows down the fps and processes them to slow the video down, but this causes quality loss and an artificial feel to it.
So I don't think we will be about to get slow motion working.

Did anybody try this? Are the photos as good as Pixel 3 especially portraits?
Thanks OP. It works great. No crash yet. The rear and front cam portrait work good and way faster compare to gcam mods on my old S8+.
The night option shows a bank screen.
I tried as well. The regular HDR+ shots handle light sources much better than the current 6T stock hdr. Taking a picture of a dark room with a television with text (high contrast) but putting the focus point below on a dark object, 6T stock cam blows out the picture onscreen, where as pixel cam port keeps the text legible. I have the same issue as well, with Nightsight on the port just rendering a black screen in the viewfinder and locking the app. Great first start though, massive potential here, maybe oneplus dev's could decompile and take a few pointers

Also try this port GCam_6.1.013_stable_OP6.apk https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/#apk518 this is nice but does not have night option, can someone also try to import the stickers? And use AR CORE application? I want to buy this phone but I will wait until camera performance will be equal to pixel (I can't root my device because of bank application and other app that does not work with root or unlocked bootloader)
Can also someone provide information about API camera level support ? is Level 3 or just Full ?

How long does it take to snap a shot in HDR+ Enhanced on the OP6t? I had the gcam port on my OP5, and that phone always took a good 3 seconds to actually take the picture once I tapped on the shutter button.

Less than a second.
This app shows that the camera hardware OnePlus is using is way better than the stock camera app software is letting it be.
The camera on the OnePlus could be great with better stock software.

Oh wow. Less than a second using HDR+ Enhanced? This port has come a long way since the OP5, then.

This app shows that the camera hardware OnePlus is using is way better than the stock camera app software is letting it be.
The camera on the OnePlus could be great with better stock software.

That's awesome, thank you! Do you still have to manually change all of the settings in the Gcam port, or is it good to go as soon as you install it with the exception of enabling manual HDR?

Also try this port GCam_6.1.013_stable_OP6.apk https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/#apk518 this is nice but does not have night option, can someone also try to import the stickers? And use AR CORE application? I want to buy this phone but I will wait until camera performance will be equal to pixel (I can't root my device because of bank application and other app that does not work with root or unlocked bootloader)
Can also someone provide information about API camera level support ? is Level 3 or just Full ?

Well ar stickers works just fine
However I am not able to use Marvel stickers and playground 2.0
Pretty cool to use once installed. The selfie camera in regular and portrait mode is 10x better. Still use nightmode on my stock 6T camera of course and the regular camera on the back is much better through this pixel app.
Few things though: The camera will take a photo and sometimes crash when you go to look at the image and the photo doesn't save. No biggie because this is happening to Pixel 3 users lol. The other things is, I don't know if any of you have taken time to notice, but the portrait mode on the back camera doesn't work from what I can tell and a few of my friends with extensive photography knowledge said they felt the same way when examining this. We took multiple photos with the regular back camera and the portrait mode back camera and the focus was the exact same, but because it's focus on the object is so strong it might appear like it's blurring out the background. Also, not sure if this proves my point, but these cameras will save both the regular photo and the portrait mode photo to give you the options which only happens when I take a selfie in portrait mode, but not on the back camera in portrait mode. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Thanks for the hard work guys, this is still great!

I wonder if I could pull what is needed to make Marvel stickers and playground work off my Pixel 3 XL?

I just tried the back portrait mode and it definitely saved the original and the portrait mode.
Edit: it works on people, but it doesn't seem to be working on objects. My Pixel 3 LX does portrait mode on both people and objects. For some reason the port on the OnePlus 6t is only working on people for portrait mode.

Do you see a big difference between the pixel 3 and the 6t gcam in hdr+ mode?
Thanks in advance!

Here are three different photos, first one taken on my Pixel 3 XL, second one taken on my OnePlus 6T with the Pixel camera port, third one taken on my OnePlus 6T with the stock camera app.
To large to add all three to one post so here are the Pixel 3 XL and OnePlus 6T using the Pixel camera app. I'll add the photo taken with the stock Oneplus camera app in the next post.

Question Gcam app yet ?

Tryed to search to see if there is a gcam app yet...came up empty I think it would help the camera out a lil.s.not that it horrible.but just enjoy gcam for some reason!

crashes, I tried both.
Just leaving my comment here so i hear if there is any activity here, I tried all of the BSG and urlyk builds but viewfinder freezes after 3 seconds. Bummer, camera is really great, but falls apart in night shots
Yes same experience here. viewfinder freezes after 3 seconds. tried almost 20 different gcam from different modders. it just freezes. hopefully soon we see the working one.
Same here hopefully someone figures out how to stop it from freezing!
Try selecting Session of photo modes as EISv3/61448 or even EISv2/61444 for main lens, it might work. Try on other lenses too see if works. Of course, use a GCam that has this option, like BSG.
This works on A52s which is a new Samsung phone with similar issues as Z fold 3, such as GCam viewfinder freezing and camera not working at all while bootloader is unlocked.
Maybe these two issues regarding cameras are related!

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately it didn't work - tried both session modes.
The search continues...
It is possible that it doesn't work because of proprietary code for the under screen camera that Samsung has might just break any other app.
Don't quote me here, as I'm still looking into the whole camera situation, but I do know that there is specific code implemented for the USC in order to make photos look acceptable with a pixel layer over it.
OK, so far the only one I can get to work is the gcam go versions like https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1529/
But they are have basically no features worth installing for. But they don't freeze, so I guess it would be a starting point...
