Camera app

Which camera app are you using with the OP3?
I'm wondering if I should use another app with more functions than the stock camera.
Can anybody recommend a good alternative?

Unfortunately the camera API appears to be buggy. Someone said the OP2 had camera API issues at the start and they took care of them quickly, so I'm optimistic. Third party cameras rely on that API, so they'll be kind of crippled until it's fixed.
As for cameras, I'm a big fan of FV5 and ProShot. It depends on what you are looking for. I definitely don't care for filter-centric cameras, so I can't suggest anything.

Can you record 1080p 60fps with alternative camera apps? Try for example open camera.
Thanks

I'm waiting someone make a port of OPPO camera, I had it on the 1+1 and I love it. Now I'm using native Camera and google Camera but I had install htc and meizu camera too.

Does the OP3 camera API support the full features of ProShot?
Coming from a Note4 particularly missing white balance sampling for documents and such.
Thanks.

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?

1.No unless you have custom recovery which mia1 doesn't have yet.
2. nope.

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.

I said the redmi note 3 pro has better performance with Google camera than this A1.. That's why i said, i am confused

So... does this camera work after modifying build.prop? Could someone upload a few pics comparing the original camera app to this one?

Finaly fully working Camera, with HDR+, for Huawei and Honor devices.

any review? Photo samples? Is it worthy? Can it use second lens?

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 in GCam / Custom ROMs?

So I see everyone talking about the quality of video recording in GCam, HDR + etc. but I'm just curious how the rear camera portrait mode working in third party cameras and if it's working, is it actually utilizing both rear cameras?

No 3rd party camera can use the 2nd camera at the moment(doubt if they ever will), not even the modded GCam uses the depth sensor. It takes better portrait anyway using only one camera, better separation, though with a little less depth blur.

Does GCam requires camera 2 API? I heard that the stock camera crashes after enabling Camera 2 API.

The stock camera works fine after enabling camara2api. The problem is after enabling camera2 API, none of the cameras can focus during recording video, so that's an issue you'll have to deal with if you decide to enable it.

Still none of gcam mods which support for second depth camera?
I'm on RR so I can't use stock camera. It's not supporting

Question Which Gcam mod?

Hi
who has got a staple mod for this phone?
All cameras should work.
Flash is important.
I find bsg v8.7.250 quite reliable but quality is unstable.
Maybe a well written config file can help?
If any one here has a hint on how to get the best out of this phones camera, please let me know
OG honor camera on v6.0.0.180 sucks In pro mode, blurry and noisy. No matter the setting or camera used.

Big kaka works great, and working on all lenses too, change interface to pixel 3 XL, and increase the exposure by 2.5 stops so picture is not dark.

not sure if it's better, I'm just more used to LMC as I've used it on my other phones.
It should work after installing, but if you want to use the Telephoto and Ultra-wide then you can import the config I attached to this post.
Put it in internal storage/LMC8.4 folder.

OIS (on telephoto) doesn't work in any GCam port on this phone. Honor must have blocked it from being used in third party camera apps.

The GoogleCameraEng one. With this phone the package doesn't matter apparently, because the ultra wide and telephoto are detected. It's just that the OIS doesn't work on tele, no matter what.

Ois seems to be working on lmc, with this xlm.

Try this xlm

In addition camera settings change the tele cam from 3 to 4, in list id

If it's dark adjust exposure to +2

All cameras are working

Ois is 100% working on tele, I can tell the difference between the tele and and normal 1x which does not have ois

In LMC tweaks make sure ois is checked

Wide, ultra wide and tele
