Best Camera app - low light - Moto G6 Themes, Apps, and Mods

What's the best camera app for the G6 in low light?
I tried the stock app and it was ok but not great. It actually worked better when zoomed in, which makes no sense to me, since normally digital zoom sucks on any other device, but worked better with this camera.
Have you found any really good low light camera apps for the G6?

Find this app: GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9
For automatic shots this is the best camera with HDR+
Moto camera its a good camera on manual mode, learn to use it.

The regular G6 ? Not the plus?

I cant install it. Doesnt work.. for me at least.

'GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9' won't install on my moto g6 64GB-Rom/4GB-Ram.

I believe only modded Google cam ports up to version 4.2 are supported for the G6
You can find a bunch if you google "celsoazevedo"
Tested a few and none of those support hdr+ for better low light shots on the G6

Does anyone have a link to the best Gcam app for the Moto G6 Plus?

I think the HDR+ is just supported for 64 bits devices

The SD 450 SOC in the Moto G6 supports 64 bit Android os but Lenovo opted to go with a 32 bit os instead

Try with this: GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.1
If don't work, try with other version's

MGC_3.2.045_FINAL_3.4.apk
I'm testing this one the regular g6, in BSG mod settings when you select model Nexus 5 and the back camera config for the Nexus 5 hdr+ seems to work

I played around with the app and the settings and low light shots have less noise but are also significant darker with hdr+.
With daytime shots the colors are warmer and more accurate in comparison with the colder results on the Moto cam app with hdr on.

These settings do not work on my regular G6 Ali. Those settings result to dark/blank screen, no camera.
Would really love to hear others success with the gcam and their settings/version of APK.

It does work for me with HDR+ but the picture quality from the Moto camera app is way superior

Here's a port from lg q7. Works great. See screenshot.
Try this one ported from rog phone
Works on g6 Ali

I've found one that works https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-harysviewty/ LGCam32bitNEW.apk but alas no "Night Shift" - has anyone found a port with Night Shift that works ? Thanks !

No you just use primary lens RGB.
Well it's a good place to start. If anyone is able to work on this to get the latest Google Camera working, or at least 5.1 that would be amazing.

Need to root?
To have real HDR+ to work you must have check mark in the dot/circle next to HDR+ icon.
We don't have this check mark when we choose HDR+ ON.
I think that real HDR+ processing ia not present now.
Testing the camera now on my P10 Plus, but there is a lor of noise and seems HDR+ is not working really with image stacking and all...

I'ts have hdr+, its faster becose it use 4 pictures to get 1 pic, not 10 like Pixel phones, becose of algoritam 4 diferent scenes of lighting.
Hmm I don't think this is actually producing any HDR pics. There is no difference in file sizes or any other data between two photos taken with and without HDR+ turned on

Yes, I noticed that too, makes no sense that HDR+ is working when the sizes are the same of pics after HDR+ is completely ON and OFF. Not only that is a sign it is not working, but as I said the check mark inside the circle is a real indication when HRD+ is turned on. Here HDR+ ON icon doesn't change with a check mark- this is the sign that HDR+ is activated.
On top of that there is so much noise in pics and no detail.
I have seen a friends Mi5s Plus with working HDR+ Mod and I tested it extensively and I know the behavior of HDR+ and the kind pictures it produces.
I hope that this mod will get better soon, it looks promising!
Hdr not working
Does it need root?...,if so where can I I?
any update with this apk?
BTW thank you for this apk
HDR+ needs Oreo to work.
Im waiting for update on P9 to test it. For now no difference comparing to native camera app.
root: It works on my Oreo P10 without root.
HDR+: I don't see any difference in the images if I check HDR+ on sv HDR+ off. So it does not seem to work.
Nevertheless, Photo Sphere is working which is good.
The best part of this APK is it does not crash except may be Slow Motion. For all others pic quality is good at least we may a working APK which can be improved over time.
Great start

Portrait mode isn't available in this version. It's only in 64 bit GCam I think. Q7+ needs 32 bit GCam. Slow motion doesn't show up.

Hi - thanks for posting this. While the app does run on my Q7+ and the regular photos it takes are fine, it does not handle panoramas or 360 sphere shots correctly. It results in extremely low resolution compiled images and there does not appear to be any "processing" happening.

I don't know why, but that seems to be common on LG phones - the low resolution panos from GCam.
Installed it on a Q6 plus, it's working fine but for some reason HDR+ only works correctly on the front facing camera. The back camera gives a pixelated result. I'm very confused with this.

Does the Portrait mode works on Front camera? inst working for me on my S9 SM960F [ EXYNOS]. Despite this, the rest of the functions work perfectly. I have already installed and configured more than 10 different versions of GCAM for Exynos processor and I did not succeed with portrait mode with the front camera, does anyone know which one works?

I know a lot of people used to think the stock camera was oversharpened, personally I think some images look a bit soft on auto, but pro mode especially using raw and editing in lightroom you get an amazingly sharp detailed photo

Google camera GCam_7.0.009 for LG G6

If you want to try the latest version of GCam 7.0.009, you can download below. Requires atleast android version 9.0
Not stable requires some tweaking.
https://bit.ly/2INLPvf
Seems to be working fine. What tweaking is required? Thanks!
I was not able to set up in my smartphone
The app opens on my G6 running PixelExperience. I can even open the settings without crashing, the apps I was using before crashed doing that. Changing cameras to selfie works, but after you press it again it wants to open wide lens, the app immediately crashes.
Hello nice link. But the picture is very noisy compared to the cstark27 version (maybe the iso is too high and the exposure is very very short)
Is their an older version for LG G6 users stuck on Android 8 (Oreo)?

Hi. I have a question about the camera, in the front camera, do you also get blurry photographs? I have tried many versions, and with almost all of them I had that problem. I currently use Hypercam_R6, and it works well with both cameras.

I dont recommend 7 version on G6, try Arnova's 6.1, 6.2 or cstark version on his XDA post, in every version front camera sucks, u look weird, green, saturated, ugly, etc, but by now this is my top 3
Is there any version that supports both Timelapse and SloMo?

Liking it more so far. Tried both and it seems to take better pictures and videos than the stock app. Couple little bugs though. The slow motion doesn't seem to work properly or I'm doing something wrong but I think that it looks better and is easier to just point focus and take the shot. Sometimes focus can be weird with it though. I'll have to play with both more but I believe overall it's better because the images have come out better

Thanks. I figured out that with the phone not rooted you can't use the XML files until you first save your own XML file. Then you can put the XML file(s) in whatever folder yours was created and saved. Anyway, I've also just been using it without the XML files and it's been working great.
It's so nice to finally be able to use a newer 64-bit version of the Google Camera. I was never able to get any custom ROM working properly on my previous Moto G5S Plus, so I was stuck with the stock 32-bit ROM which greatly limited the version of Google Camera I could use. The shot-to-shot speed (with HDR+) is sooooo much faster. The 32-bit version was barely usable.
Ultracam is working pretty well. Haven't figured out how to switch rear cams yet. Slow motion and night sight works.
Thanks for this thread, any updates on what gcam version and xml work best with g stylus?
I just got the Moto G Stylus today, installed Parrot043's Gcam 7.3 (MGC_7.3.020_Parrot043_V7.apk) from here --> https://www.cyanogenmods.org/downloads/parrot043-gcam-7-3-020/

2. When I go to the Settings --> Advance --> Focus Tracking and enable it, then switch to Video, Gcam crashes. I find this odd since in the pull down settings from the top, MOTION is set to "Auto"

2. How to Load config.xml --> https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/settings09/
3. Parrot's Gcam 7.4 Review--> https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x2/themes/gcam-7-4-parrot043-review-best-settings-t4137445
4. Moto G Power Wide and Telephoto --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-power/themes/gcam-ultra-wide-macro-support-t4155275

I'm really looking forward to finding out what setup works the best on the better camera of the g stylus, considering how well it worked on the G Fast and G power. Thanks for the links.
I have the 7.3 Urnyx05 by Wichaya, and all looks work well with no crashes. You can use ultrawide lent and macro too. The ultrawide appears like "2x" in the interface and the macro like "0.6x". I've load the xml for G8 Plus but don't like the photos taken with front camera.

In https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/configs-wichaya-02/ there's configs for "Moto G8 Plus" and "Moto G8 Power/Moto G Power"...would it make more sense for a Moto G Stylus phone to use the "Moto G8 Power/Moto G Power" config? I've only used Parrot's Gcam port for the Moto G Stylus without any xml configs.

I haven't much luck with the gcam and xml combos, some combos you get a wide cam but it's seems to a stretched out shot. For pure quality shots on the main camera, latest parrot seems to be the way to go.

I use Moto G8 Plus config cos I think the sensor of main camera is the same, the specs are the same.
One thing, in the Wichaya port the ultrawide sensor is enabled for the photos.

No go for me. Once I restored the XML and clicked on the 2x option to see the ultrawide angle view, the camera pp just crashes. I Force Stop it, re-open, and it crashes with an error "Camera keeps stopping" no matter what. I guess I'll just stick with the Parrott Gcam.

I haven't that problem, try cleaning the app cache.
I have Moto G Pro, the international version of Moto G Stylus.
Alright I got the Wichaya GCam installed and loaded with the Moto G8 Plus config xml and it loadsand gives the Macro and Wide angle lens as an option. However as kywildcat mentioned, the wide angle gives a stretched out look in the viewfinder. Guess I'll uninstall this and stick with Parrot's GCam.
Any current good working gcam for this device? I tried parrots but app crashes when I try to open it so it does not work.
