[CAMERA MOD(S)] Tadi's libhacks (new camera resolution)

I present you a resolution mod :>
FAQ:
Won't my device go boom? Not likely. I mean, I don't want to help fixing placebo bricks Just reflash your current ROM, that's it.
How to even use this? ??? Use your root file manager and replace the current one with mine in /system/vendor/lib/. Set 0644/rwrr permissions for the file. And better backup the original one, as I won't download a system dump to send you that ;_;
So it means that it's not flashable? Exactly! I had no time for this currently :>
EDIT: Now provided as Magisk module only. Unpacking and replacing still works.
The current state for mi_a1_4096cam_module_v2.zip:
- adds 4096x3072 photo resolution (12.6 MPx)
- possibly works on Mi 5X too
- wider FOV (field of view) should be visible
- does not replace the standard 4000x3000
- Snapdragon Camera and Snap (Lineage-default) may not detect it (Qualcomm aimed at their direct resolutions only)
- MIUI camera should detect instantly
- some apps may need to be data-cleared to detect
The current state for mi_a1_4096cam_module_v3.zip:
- based on Oreo
- adds 4096x3072 photo resolution (12.6 MPx)
- possibly works on Mi 5X too
- wider FOV (field of view) should be visible
- does not replace the standard 4000x3000

Front cam is already using the full resolution, so it's not possible.

Such a type of mod is much more complicated, but maybe in the future. Now you can try some ported camera apps. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/themes/app-collection-camera-modded-t3591177 - from there, for example.

Thank you page..
i already used very many app,,,
but all app manual mode is max exposure time 1/8 ,,,
i hope success this problem mod

Bro this is not working on latest build 8.1.1.0 of oreo 8.0. Magisk and everything latest. It gave me bootloop.
Edit:Actually on second boot it works. I just realised that in oreo latest sometimes device fails to boot.

Can't install, what could possibly be the problem? I'm actually running magisk 15.3
- Copying zip to temp directory
- Installing mi_a1_4096cam_module_v3.zip
- Mounting /system, /vendor, /data, /cache

Many thanks, must try that !

Will try to port it to my Mi 5X soon

Hi everybody,
I have experienced a time of this google camera port and found it quite stable, no crash.
And I decided to share it with everyone
It runs fine on Lineages, Mokee, AOSP Rom and MIUI
Note: ** Your phone has root and activate camera2api.zip file here

In order to use the excellent Google Camera features ( HDR+ and etc.) you need to have Camera2 API Enabled, to do that you need root.
Otherwise you can just install some basic google camera with sub-optimal performance.

Does front camera HDR+ and portrait mode work?
I remember my Redmi 5 plus worked in portrait mode but no front cam HDR+
But now my phone is bricked, so I can't test it

Noup, i tried every GCam apk under the sun. No luck.
I can live with that but main reason i keep my stock camera around is because the front flash doesn't work on GCam...

yes, but you should turn off hdr mode in portrait mode

There are 2 versions here. If you use the first version, you will use the portrait mode normally. If you use the second version, during use you must turn off the hdr mode in portrait mode
I just checked it thoroughly. The first version is compatible with all roms. The second version is compatible with MIUI

I have no idea why, but Arnova V2 crashes a lot. I'm using latest EU stable rom.

Wrong. No root needed, just setprop hal3 = 1 in twrp adb shell Mode. Using gcam without root here, miui eu 9.5.4.0

blinking the camera2api.zip the camera stock is uninstalled? If not, how do I remove the camera stock?

[MAGISK][APP][FIX]Google Camera with HDR+ on FRONT/BACK, Portrait mod fix and Guides

As everyone was asking for some guides and fixes of the Google Camera on our Mi Note 3 device, I decided to help you out with a guide and all necessary resources to get it working.
First of all, for people new to Google Camera, follow @dimi89 's guide as an introduction to all processes needed to achieve a working camera port.
To make it simple, you need to:
Unlock bootloader
Flash TWRP or boot it through fastboot (there are plenty of guides here)
Install Magisk systemless root through TWRP recovery
Flash my fixes module below to enable Camera 2 API and make front camera working as desired
Install the best APK for you from https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Be happy
Until now, we had it working but some features like Portrait mode, front camera HDR+ and portrait, plus front camera flash were missing.
With the help of @defcomg I managed to make a Magisk Module as a bundle that does both enabling Camera2API and adds necessary libs to fix the camera. You can download it below.
As per the apk of the GCam on your device, I recommend latest Arnova8G2 version. You can also find it at the bottom of this post. It is great and does not require any other settings after you apply the fix in Magisk.
Downloads here:
-Camera2API, Portrait mode + HDR on front camera fix (MAGISK MODULE) - https://mega.nz/#!M5gjSQxJ!K5Q4XmdRimI_x2xpOWexHR52qUi5sklOV7SVhWWo9RE
-Stable and autoconfig GCam - https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/...eCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9.apk
For any other questions, feel free to ask me.
IMPORTANT!! The fix for front cam may not work with all ROMs. It was tested on the following:
XIAOMI.EU Stable 9.5.4.0
XIAOMI.EU Stable 9.2.x.x
XIAOMI.EU Developer 8.3.22
Lineage OS
AOSP Extended
You can test it on your device on your own risk. If it does not work you can delete module from magisk.
Credits to @defcomg for the help with the library, @WebDingo for the magisk module and @Arnova8G2 for the amazing work with all GCam ports. Also crediting other developers for their great additions to this community.
Enjoy!

Great job
Great job Gcam now works very well, the only thing I noticed is that is laggy at times in portrait mode. Is it normal?

will it work on my mi5s?

Thank you, its working! Mi Note 3 xiaomi.eu 9.5.4.0

Anyone have flash via twrp fix version ?

Thanksss. With arnova v6 (and this beta) works fine. So I've a problem but...you have 60 FPS video? For me is ever 30 FPS and I search in every part of the web the way to have got 60 FPS in full hd. For me is very important. If you know a way, please tell me (also use another new custom ROM). Thanks

[GoogleCamera] - Mi A2 Lite Optimised.

I am not sure if there is already thread regarding this version from @Hass31 version of Gcam . If there is , then please ignore this thread .
Otherwise , then here it is .
This version by @Hass31 is optimised for Mi A2 Lite and I can say this is the first version of Google Camera that I used which is fully functional .
Pre-Requisites : You have to enable Camera2Api in order to use this version of GoogleCamera .
Tested :
1. Front Camera (Potrait) HDR+ On = Working
2. Front Camera HDR+ = Working
3. Front Camera HDR+ Off = Working
4. Rear Camera (all mode) = Working
5. Video 60fps (I doubt it shoot at 60fps) with Stabilize = Working
6. Video slowmotion 120fps = Working
Thus , I can say we finally have this version that is sufficient and better than the stock cam .
Download Here : https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/GCamera.apk
THANKS @Hass31
Mod optimised by hass31 for his Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite.
Changelog:
- First update.
A small modification of Google Camera for our device differs from others: stability, operability.
Update check in the paragraph (there you can also state your suggestions and learn about the development of the modification): "About the application" - "Check update".
(Thanks for to Konstantin for the translation improvements.)

it's v5.+,
night mode is in v6.+ of google camera

isnt it possible to it not require camera 2 api?

I can also confirm that everything works.
But sadly this isn't the latest build of the Google camera and is only build v5, so until than, the Tolyan009 version is better in my opinion.

Do u have the link for tolyan? Mind to share it here? Thanks in advance...

I can confirm that this MI Mix2 version is the most complete for the MI A2 Lite: it only misses the HDR/HDR+ front and Slow Motion.
WIth this and other 2 different versions installed, I'm good to shot every existing mode for foto and video

How to use this? just simply install or theres some magic needed before it works?
