I Guess you want Portrait Mode, it works on the modded google camera, but only for the rear camera.
Look here for the download:

pixel 3 cam on pixel xl?

Hi,
So my question is if the pixel 3 cam will be ported to our phone the pixel 2 cam was ported pretty fast to the first generation, is it possible with the latest one too?
i reallyyyyyyyyy hope so. I am running a custom pie rom and it has the pixel 3 camera BUT no portrait mode unfortunately.
So somebody has started porting it already (https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/) You can download the latest one, if you already have the normal google camera app installed you won't be able to update it, so you can use app cloner (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.applisto.appcloner) and create version with a different internal app name to install it separately. Portrait mode and photobooth are available, slow motion does not work

Once you've downloaded the latest apk (https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/) and installed the App cloner, follow these video steps.

Works great although the stock app seems to get better quality photos but I guess still this app is new and has a long way to go with a lot promising features!
I don't get it...I've been using this for a week:
https://mobilesyrup.com/2018/10/10/google-pixel-3-camera-apk/
Only thing is, you need to be running 9.0.

This one has functioning night sight, slow motion, and portrait mode (front and back), haven't found any weird glitches and don't have to do any "tricks" to get the app to work, like clone it or flip cameras back and forth to get it to take a picture.
Motion photos don't work though.

Google camera for Samsung Galaxy A50

Hi,
Does anyone know a version of Google Camera working for Samsung Galaxy A50 (Exynos 9610 Octa core) 2019 android 9.0?
Thanks.
Camera2API Spport
This device currently dont have camera2API support. When checked using Camera2API probe app, the highest support available is "Limited".
There is no use of GCam as of now.
Anyone got any gcam working on a50???
There is GCAM for A50
Here is the link.Try this.
f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/GCam_5.1.018.177470874.41362666_IDan_N6_4.1_fix.apk
Portrait is not working currently, don't know if any settings in developer mode make that work.

Try changing advanced settings for portrait mode,it may help.There are lot of options in settings menu.
There is actually a new version with night mode too,but night mode is not working with default settings,we need to try all combinations in settings. Here is the link.
f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_1.2_test_fix_Exynos.apk

camera worst quality so please help me for good app or Google camera .. photo size not more than 3.5mb
Increase the quality

To address your issue, I'm going to suggest you to change the aspect ratio. It's currently 9:16, right? So, you have multiple ratios available to choose from. So, the ratio that has the most pixels is the "3:4H". This is the highest you can get on your A50. Now you get crispier photos with larger photo size. Hope it helps! :laugh:
Install recent update and change camera settings.

Install recent update provided by samsung and change camera settings (set aspect ration to 3:4 H). Try using pro mode, which will give you satisfied output.

Nothing to do with settings. Enable camera2api using ADB and try again.

@stark1296 Can you please guide on how to enable Camera2API using ADB. Thanks
I tried latest Arnova version of gcam. While changing modes of camera, camera lens moves backward. You can confirm by seeing the movement through camera glass.
I am not sure if it is safe for the camera hardware or not.

Google it. There are many help articles for that and also, you can confirm if it works on samsung devices. Actually, I currently don't remember the command which is meant to be entered in ADB.

Blurry Group Selfies

All group selfies are unusable because of blur, I have the feeling it is not an out of focus blur, but the artificially applied portrait lens faking blur. Can't find more information or how to disable it?
Were you using portrait mode instead of photo mode?

Question Gcam horrible portrait shots

Earlier gcam used to click good portraits, but now the portrait mode of the gcam has become so useless that the portrait mode of the stock camera looks good next to it.
If anyone has solution for this please let me know.
1. Sending email to Google Camera Team and push them to improve it;
2. Trying to install Gcam Mod and tune by yourself.

The "stock camera" **IS** "gcam", so this makes no sense.
