I'm with you! Wanna buy this smartphone but the fact that it's not have Google camera ported yet stops me from buying.

Hi! I'd like to get Google Camera app with HDR+ on my Xiaomi Mi A1, but the official XDA port doesn't work. I've heard of some people using the app in SD625 devices, and the Mi A1 has the 625 SoC, so in theory it may be possible to port the app... I can't code, so does anyone know something about a download link that works on Mi A1 or can mod the XDA apk to work on the Mi A1?

Almost every ported gcam works on mia1, have you enabled Camera 2 api ? it needs that enabled to work.
Anyway , you find all these ports on this thread

I don't know how to enable the API: please explain me, if you can. Moreover, is it possible to add EIS to the stock camera or at least in Google Camera ported?

If you are rooted you have to add below line in build.prop -
Code:
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
after that reboot. you will have working gcam with HDR+. although the slomo option won't work. and you will have EIS too in gcam.

Is it possible to modify build.prop without root? Or is it possible to root the phone without having a PC nearby?

i think Google camera hdr+ need a snapdragon 820++ isn't it?
@thewarrior2 It doesn't, it needs a 64bit OS and a snapdragon SoC packing a certain Hexagon DSP
Can anybody post comparison pictures of hdr+ and stock xiaomi camera app? I am really interested in seeing the results before buying this phone.

If you cant find the difference by looking at the samples posted, then you dont need HDR+.
But the fact is the difference is night and day!
Google is primarily known for software, which is what HDR+ is all about.. It uses the camera h/w, takes many pics when you click the shutter button, each in different contrast, and applies some kick-ass machine learning algorithms on every pixel of each groups of pics it took, fuses all of them, to get awsome looking pics.. Thats all it does, and thats all that no other stock camera app does from any other manufacturer. Thats why it beats even iphone.
So basically, google does more through software , what all others achieve through multiple h/w.. Reason why pixel 2 still has single Camera.

Having played around with some of the camera apk's for the Mi 6 what is the general opinion of the Mi 6 users?
Google Camera
MIUI Camera
Snapdragon
OnePlus
Moto
I find the Google camera to be the best even if HDR isn't enabled but the video is very choppy when panned to any degree. MIUI has a much smoother camera as does the OnePlus camera (tested latest version 2.5.20)
Let me know what you all think as will be interested to see results/settings
Google camera has the best picture quality, that's for sure, and I use the stock camera for videos.
What build of the Google camera have you been using/is the best to use?
I know all versions struggle with AF on HDR+ without toggling the settings each time
I've tried google camera with pixel libraries and 6p settings. Hdr+ photos are amazing. Can we collect all the mods in your thread ?
Yeah happy for that to happen, see what we can get going for the Mi 6

I haven't notice big difference in low light photos anyway. Not sure which version of GCam I was using, there are plenty of them.
And I had working HDR+ but in return it couldn't focus on objects so photos were really blurry

No, sadly... My advice is to use Gcam only for photos and MIUI camera for videos/slowmo/time lapse at least for now.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only 6.2 Gcam with all 4 cameras (3+1 front) working well with Mi 9T is the one in OP.

You're correct, this is the only 6.2 GCam working on the Mi 9T. But xtrme's version, although it's based on GCam 6.1, works great too with all 4 cameras. I don't know much about photography so I can't really tell which one is better overall.
Can you reduce NR for main camera as well? Night shots with HDR+ are good, but lack detail. A little grain won't hurt the image IMO.
Grainy noise is better than colour noise

Try changing library in advanced settings. Fit v2 seems to be optimized for Mi 9 that has a very similar main sensor.

It should crash only if wide or Tele camera are active.

I suspect that video profiles for aux cameras are missing/hidden, at least in Global ROM.

Good evening everyone.
I have just joined the forum having just purchased a Xiaomi Mi 9T phone (That's still awaiting delivery)
Anyways, I am just wondering if this google camera mod can be loaded straight onto the phone or does the phone need 'jailbreaking' in some way?
Thanks in advance.

This is beyond strange, still working for me. Try to take another picture with front camera and check like a minute later if the pic is showing in your gallery. It takes a bit for our A2 to proceed the selfie. If it's still not working idk?

Still no luck. Can take picture in normal mode, not in hdr. Have you changed any settings, developer settings?
Does the focus on Android Pie work?
10.0.14.0 HDR not working on the front facing camera, everything else works I believe. Also i think there was a version that could shot 1080 60fps video, not really sure, this version only shots at 30 fps. Thanks for the apk!!
the focus is very unstable
On my phone it won't even install, even though I have camera2 api. Other GCam's (version 5 and 6) do work.

Indeed, after uninstalling both the V5 and V6 GCam, it worked. Thanks!
Too bad i have to manually switch HDR off when using the front cam, and back on again when using the back cam.
There are focus issues as usual. If someone can specifically build a GCam version for Mi A series, that would be great.

I didn't meant the settings thing, i want the feature, while shooting in night mode there should be the cuttlefish mode, this mode have a very long exposure time like 1 min or so and u have to keep the phone steady for that time. This mode ultimately create more sharper image than the previous night mode, also can detect stars.
Stumbled across this seems to work just fine from my quick testing astro photography must be enabled as not by default

There must be a reason. If I was you I wouldn't count only on GCam. An update can disable it.
Since gauguin now has LOS 17.1 alpha and mi-globe currently the lack of a good working GCam is holding me back to seek to buy this one - and a little the imanent release of Redmi Note 10 Pro, which should have the same Snapdragon 750G and maybe Radio support.

Try this gcam mod - gave it a quick test and all basic functions seem to work
Video will record in 60fps without 4k option selected
30fps with 4k option selected - if you try 60fps the app will close and you need to clear data of app to use video again
