How to use .xml files
.xml files must be stored in [Internal Storage]/GCam/Configs7 (create the folder if it doesn't exists)
To load an .xml double tap the area between the capture button and gallery, select the .xml and click Restore or Update (depending on GCam used)
If there are no .xml files, make sure the folder is created and the name is correct.
How to enable auxiliary cameras [magisk required] [updated for 7.3 Arnova]
Download the following magisk module and install it: [Download link]
Reboot your phone. If the app still crashes when you select an auxiliary camera do another reboot.
Auxiliary cameras are supported only by Urnyx05 GCam at this time.
Auxiliary cameras are not supported in cloned .apks.
Cloned .apks
Cloned .apks are needed in order to use two different versions of the same app
You can also use cloned .apks to have the same app version with different settings (.xmls). One for day and one for night.
Auxiliary cameras are not supported in cloned .apks.
Credits to Arnova8G2, Urnyx05, Nameless, Sir TAVARES and everyone else on the telegram channel.
These are the best ones at the moment. Still recommend Urnyx with Nameless or Pixel4 xml. Arnova 7.3 is still a beta and lots of bugs with missing options (aux cam, astro toggle etc)
Just installed the Urnyx05 with Nameless.xml, and it seems to be working pretty well. Some features don't work, but that's to be expected haha.

Thank you.
Thanks a lot for sharing! Will be testing.
Neither Arnova8G2 7.3 nor Urnyx05 7.2 is working for me.
I get a crash with Arnova8G2 7.3 as soon as I open up the camera app.
With Urnyx05 7.2, I get a crash after I press the shutter button for both XML files.
Thanks for share .
Is it possible to run multiple gcams of same version side by side ?

What's your device and software version? Any Magisk modules installed?
Using OP7T, Urnyx and the nameless v7 XML, only feature I've found not working is the slow Mo, everything else seems fantastic, and much better than stock

Does anyone else have the same zoom crash problem I'm having when locked focused on an object? This is only for the Urnyx05 version, not the Arnova8G2 version. I detail the problem in the post linked below:
Problem: GCam crashes when the focused point/circle moves outside of the screen during the process of zooming.
If you can't repeat the problem on your phone, can you please look at my signature and tell me how your phone is different? Thank you.

If you install the magisk module it will allow you to use ultrawide and telephoto cameras in google camera. Read the first post for more info.

Did you try it on stock rom as well? OmniRom might cause it to crash.

Here is the original camera apk from Chinese ColorOS 2 Beta.
Current version: 1.04.986
From Chinese ColorOS 2.0.16 (Find7a - X9007)
Tested on ColorOS 1.2.2i (Find7a - X9006)
DOWNLOAD: http://www12.zippyshare.com/v/73078312/file.html
Original source: http://bbs.coloros.com/find7-57994-1-1.html
What are the features you don't have in the original camera app? (ColorOS 1.2.Xi)
+ adjustable ISO (auto, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600)
+ ScanPaste (= QR code scanner)
+ Poster Search (I could not make this one work, maybe it takes only specific chinese posters/magazines)
+ Voice Shot (take the photo with just saying 'Cheese'...) - not working, it probably needs another app to work properly.
+ Voice Beauty (adjustable skin beautifier - only for Chinese speakers) - not tested, but it is very likely that it will have the same problem as the Voice Shot
Installation:
- copy the apk file to your phone/sd storage and install it.
How to get back to the original camera app?
- just uninstall it.
(it is installed as an update, so when you uninstall it, you will get back to the original version of the app)
Will the app work on a custom ROM?
- if the ROM is not based on ColorOS it probably won't work.
Very nice, but voice snapshot doesn't work for me!I don't know, but logcat says 'ALSA input device not found!'.
Any help is appreciated!
Tia
Is this for 7A or 7S?
I tested it on 7S, but it shouldn't be the difference with actual colorOS, cause it's same for both!

I guess the app looks for another apk which is not implemented in the international ColorOS.
ALSA is an audio driver, so it makes sense it doesn't work without it...
APK analysis might help to find the right apk for this to work..
Somebody who tests the camera apk on a ColorOS 2.0.0i Beta would be appreciated..

I have extracted it from the official version for X9007 (Find 7a). You can try it on Find 7 and unninstall it if the app misbehaves.
(But as Zoltan-X stated above, it should work with no problem)
Works as you say on 7a (X9006) with ColorOS 1.2.2i but some of the wording in the settings menu is cut off with the large font options. Probably ok on the smaller font settings but I'm of an age where the smaller fonts are just wingdings

Thanks, installed and tested slow shutter, manual iso at completely dark bedroom, the only light is from my Macbook Pro's keyboard.

For some reason the app reverts itself to stock (non-chinese) version after every reboot. Wtf?

Great to know Gcam portrait working for you in both back and front side but I am using China verient and using Arnovas nodded app in which front portrait doesn't work and using latest RR Rom. Because of the camera sensors differences in China and Indian verient maybe different Gcam doesn't work fully in my China version. Hoping someone finds a way to make all the features work in China verient. Thanks
I do that but I don't receive usb debugging permission on my phone after connecting to pc.

Done. The front camera doesn't work. The apk you had attached above didn't work. Downloaded another from the list. It workwd but the front camera doesn't work.

How do you find the image quality as compared to stock?
For front camera
BSG Settings:
-Old Style -> Nexus (so front can works with and without portrait mode)
-Portrait Mode Always Active (So portrait mode appears instead of tilt shift)
Please post a screenshot for BSG settings. I don't think I have this option.

The images from gcam have better color and details.
Anyone else got front cam portrait working stable on rn5 ai/china? I kinda got it working (intermittently) by toggling front and back camera a number of times and taking photos while in portrait mode

hello
i cleaned the LE_ZL1_LEX720-CN-FN-WAXCNFN6003009091S-6.0.03 (30S) from all SPAM china apps excluding: PHONE MANAGER, SYSTEM UPDATE (OTA), FEEDBACK.
MY STRATEGY: keep all apps that work with the phone HARDWARE (camera, dialer, etc). keep only the nice apps and delete as much SPAM apps as possible.
INSTALLED APPS (SYSTEM):
GAPPS minimal build for Pokemon GO (Google Play Services Version 12.6.85)
Recommended APPS:
Google Play Store 6.0.7:
INFO FOR FAKE GPS USER:
Install MAGISK (for ROOT):
Install FAKE GPS APP (take the app you like most)
Install /system/app mover ★ ROOT ★ 1.7.3:
move FAKE GPS with /system/app mover ★ ROOT ★ 1.7.3 to SYSTEM.
I think the Phone runs very fast + stable (with the cleaned rom).
POKEMON GO runs superfast without any issues.
its my first project here and i can provide TWRP BACKUP.
Question. On this version with android 6.0, Can you test if Gcam Mod (Version 3.5) can do Shot with bokeh effect?
I read that version (Mod) can do shot with Blur effect (like Gcam Mod on Android 7+)
BTW, Some screenshots will be great!!n

I'd want to know if Bokeh effect works on android Marshmellow 6.0 (I know its does work on android Nougat and above)
I have a Lepro3 X727, using Android 8.1 (DotOS) and works fine but Battery and Sound on Stock EUI android 6 are Supreme and I missed a lot. If Gcam Mod work and can do Shot with Bokeh effect or Portrait mode (Not lens Blur, it not same) I could to back android Stock.
+You must to have enable Camera2 API. Remember thats

i hacked the build.prop: manually added persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 .
the GCamMod_v.3.5.0 app don't open and crashes when starting it.
with the "Open Camera" app V1.45.2 you can shot fotos with Camera2-API (RAW-MODE).

if you are interested i could post my TWRP backup (boot, data, system) 3.67GB on google drive or somewhere else.
build.prop: manually added persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 included in TWRP backup.
i think this build is (much) faster as many phone with stock rom.
this build is super responsive on games like pokemon go and on any other app i tired out so far.
i added antutu benchmark for my build on my photos.

HyperCAM R4 working correctly in our Mi9SE!!, attached to the ZIP is an XML that you must install as in GCAM (in fact HyperCAM is a GCAM MOD)
This camera allows you to use the GCAM with ALL the cameras available on your device, using GCAM technology.
To make it work, install the APK as a GCAM and install the attached XML in the ZIP, otherwise the APK will not work for us.

ANXCamera v185 with ANX48MPFix Q v170. You also need the ANXCamera Pro app from Play Store
Everything worked on the GSI rom from sooti. On the official Pixel Experience for curtana (which works on joyeuse now) the protrait mode doesn't work...
How to install: (use the versions I stated above, other versions cause bootloop or just don't work)
For those who want stock camera with 64mp support on back and 16 on front
1. Download ANX camera from here along with the 48mp addon
2. flash in magisk both modules
3. Reboot
4. Give ANX camera all the permissions in app info
5. First time might crash then re-open
6. To fix portrait in front camera, download anx camera config from play store and search for portrait, enable all settings except for 'portrait night front'
7. restart app
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For the GCam, I really couldn't find a stable port, they were all pretty useless IMO. Stability issues and missing basic features are a no no for me.
Seems JOYEUSE is slightly different than CURTANA
ANX Camera 190 working so far except rear portrait:
1. ANXCameraUnity_190.BountifulDistantHapuka.zip
2. ANXFrameworkUnity_190.BountifulDistantHapuka.zip
3. 48MPFixQ_181.GlossyIntelligentCock.zip
4. ANXCameraHotfix.190.BootloopFix.zip
5. JoyeuseCameraFix_V1.0.zip
and AnxCamera Pro app enabled everything with portrait except night portrait did the trick.
