Google Camera hdr+ port by B-S-G

Just installed on my Z Force will post pics later. Let's see how they look on our Z forces
https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-ported/

Bump cuz it works and my first impressions is this that HDR in google's software is godlike.

I'm still liking the NX camera modified better as processing time is much faster. But I'd love to see some comparison shots.

I've been using this for a few days now, and first impressions are, I love it! Aside from a few crashes here & there, it seems to work pretty well.

Just in cast, this was updated last week(?) Speed of processing was fixed as well as crashes.
Found an even newer version than I was aware of:

[GCam] OnePlus 6 / 6T

Introduction
Releases in this thread are mainly done by @Arnova8G2 as I have since sold my OnePlus 6 and moved on to other devices.
What is Google Camera (AKA GCam)?
Google Camera is the camera app for the Google Nexus and Google Pixel phones. It is not designed or intended to be run on other phones.
What is HDR+?
Basic: HDR+ is Google's proprietary image processing routine, and is more than just traditional "HDR' modes. HDR+ employs image stacking to control exposure, and also to preserve details, reduce noise, increase sharpness, etc. It is an all-in-one package.
Advanced: https://ai.googleblog.com/2014/10/hdr-low-light-and-high-dynamic-range.html
Google Camera Features
Pixel 1
Zero Shutter Lag (ZSL) HDR+ - The Pixel 1 introduced ZSL HDR+ which means when you open the camera, the system utilizes the Hexagon DSP to constantly buffer frames and marks the time slot of when you pressed the shutter button.
* -- Quote from Marc Levoy via The Verge:
"The moment you press the shutter it's not actually taking a shot — it already took the shot," says Levoy. "It took lots of shots! What happens when you press the shutter button is it just marks the time when you pressed it, uses the images it's already captured, and combines them together."
It's a major usability improvement on the HDR+ mode in last year's Nexus 6P and 5X. "What used to happen last year is you'd press the shutter button and you'd get this little circle going around while it captured the images you need for the burst; now it's already captured those," says Levoy. "And that's big, because that means that you can capture the moment you want."
* -- https://www.theverge.com/2016/10/18/13315168/google-pixel-camera-software-marc-levoy
Pixel 2
Portrait Mode - Simulates bokeh for improved subject separation from the background. The front camera of the Pixel 2 only provides Portrait Mode when a human face is detected, and the rear camera can work on an object, an animal, a human, etc because it uses information from the Dual Pixel PDAF sensor to detect depth. Google Camera ports for non-Pixel phones can NOT do this so all ports for non-Pixel phones utilize the front camera technique for both front & rear (which means all ports for non-Pixel phones can only properly apply bokeh when a human face is detected).
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2017/10/portrait-mode-on-pixel-2-and-pixel-2-xl.html
Motion Photos - Provides short clips of moments before and after you take the photo.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/03/behind-motion-photos-technology-in.html
Pixel 3
Top Shot - When Motion is set to Auto or On, Pixel will recommend a better photo to you if it detects one. Like if you captured a photo when someone blinked.
* -- Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMa1H97zUQ8
Photobooth - Automatically capture a photo when Pixel detects a silly face or a smile.
Super Res Zoom - Enhances zoomed picture quality by purposely shifting the camera module using OIS (Pixel 3 only) to gather more data.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/10/see-better-and-further-with-super-res.html
Motion Metering - On the Pixel 3 Motion Metering is used in the "default photo mode" to detect subject motion and if it detects enough motion, Pixel will shoot with a faster shutter speed to reduce subject blur. The Pixel 1 and 2 get to use this in Night Sight only.
* -- Further reading (about 1/3 down the article): https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/night-sight-seeing-in-dark-on-pixel.html
Synthetic Fill Flash - Pixel 3 will brighten faces in selfies.
Tracking Autofocus - Tap on a subject or area to keep focus when the subject or phone moves.
Learning Based White Balance - Google's attempt to fix white balance for low light photos. Used in Night Sight and HDR Enhanced on the Pixel 3.
* -- Further read (about 1/2 down the article): https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/night-sight-seeing-in-dark-on-pixel.html
Portrait Mode Learned Depth - Pixel 3 improves the rear camera Portrait Mode depth detection for more consistent and more pleasing bokeh.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/learning-to-predict-depth-on-pixel-3.html

FAQ
If you face tint or performance issues, Clear App Data and reboot.
Q: How to get Top Shot working?
A: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78342714&postcount=5141
Q: Why does the resolution only show 4MP & 12MP?
A: This is a limitation from the API by OnePlus. If the GCam version you are using has a "Resampling" option, set it to None. This will NOT update the resolution list in the Settings, but the photos should come out at a higher resolution if you check the EXIF info.
Q: Can I use the second lens on the rear?
A: No, it is not made available through the API.

Thanks for this - it's really encouraging. I am seeing an odd colour cast, green or at least cooler colour hue after hitting the shutter.

Thank you very much! :good:

Τhank you very very mutch

woah, looks promising! thank you very much

Great , will test it tomorrow after receiving my OP6

Updated OP with a new build, based off my latest version I was building for the LG V30. Borrowed some code from @Arnova8G2 to fix the back camera. Settings should work now and front camera will capture, but no HDR+. Portrait Mode still broke. Need to test capture in sunlight.

Thanks a billion for getting this to run on OP6.
No dots on this device in processed images, which is awesome.
New release gives quite pinkish results, but hey I know its a work in progress, great progress!

Try to play around with Settings>Advanced>Model (force close after change) and let me know if there is a better result with a different model. :good:
Another bug: successive captures can either freeze the app or process/capture very slowly.

For the use of the frontal hdr + you have to modify the libs like Op3T / Op5 / Op5t
Code:
android.sensor.info:
- activeArraySize = Rect(0, 0 - 4608, 3456) <------- replace by [B]Rect(0, 0 - 2304, 1728)[/B]
- colorFilterArrangement = 0
- exposureTimeRange = [13103, 49035740046]
- lensShadingApplied = true
- maxFrameDuration = 49035908400
- physicalSize = 5.16096x3.87072
- pixelArraySize = 4608x3456 <------- replace by [B]2304x1728[/B]
- preCorrectionActiveArraySize = Rect(0, 0 - 2304, 1728)
- sensitivityRange = [100, 1600]
- timestampSource = SOURCE_REALTIME
- whiteLevel = 1023
I will do a test with your version with these raw resolution.

Thanks a lot for this. Will try it too. Do we have to.enable camera 2 api or is it enabled by default?

Its enabled I think
I have Full level with camera2 probe app

@cstark27 Here is your modified version with activeArraySize and pixelArraySize
Do the test
https://drive.google.com/open?id=13aOM-9SmM0usmfNkzgO5Cfv5yJ8OPwM6
Edit : Oneplus has to hide the resolutions use on InputsString this is used for portrait mode

Just tested the camera and no front HDR and no portrait mode on the front or the back camera.
Back camera will not take pictures with zoom.

Just checked, yea full level is enabled but level 3 and legacy mode level is disabled. Must we enabled those too or is full level enough?

Great news! It might not be very functional yet, but it's heartening to see this being ported so soon...!
Thanks!

Thanks I will check this out later tonight. I need to double check my FFC HDR+ config is right. I remembered with Nexus 6 HDR+ config, it would make FFC be yuvprocessing or whatever. So that may be part of the problem too

Whoever has root
Is to copy the libs to send them to me I can test to activate the hiding resolution.
the libs are: ** = number
libmmcamera_imx***.so

[GCam] Camera PX for Google Pixel 1 / 2 / 3 / 3a / 4

Project Status
2021-12-20: This project is no longer being worked on. Please look towards MWP mods https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-MWP/
As you may have noticed or seen in my sporadic posts here, Camera PX development has been non-existent for quite some months now. This is mainly due to a lack of substantial updates within Google Camera, but also due to lack of interest in the project as other things in our lives have become more important. As each new Google Camera version is released, the modifications have to be re-done from scratch so this would take quite some time as we only get to do this in our "free" time after work and spending time with our families. We do hope the Pixel 5 release brings some new/interesting things to the table but that is yet to be seen, and the passion to restart the project is also yet to be seen. For now, we are releasing a minor update to "support" Pixel 4a's but since Google Camera 7.2 was not built with Pixel 4a's in mind, you may notice a quality difference than your stock camera.

Introduction
This is a Google Camera mod for the Pixel phones. The main goal is to bring newer features to older Pixels, where possible.
What is Google Camera (AKA GCam)?
Google Camera is the camera app for the Google Nexus and Google Pixel phones. It is not designed or intended to be run on other phones.
What is HDR+?
Basic: HDR+ is Google's proprietary image processing routine, and is more than just traditional "HDR' modes. HDR+ employs image stacking to control exposure, and also to preserve details, reduce noise, increase sharpness, etc. It is an all-in-one package.
Advanced: https://ai.googleblog.com/2014/10/hdr-low-light-and-high-dynamic-range.html
Google Camera Features
Pixel 1
Zero Shutter Lag (ZSL) HDR+ - The Pixel 1 introduced ZSL HDR+ which means when you open the camera, the system utilizes the Hexagon DSP to constantly buffer frames and marks the time slot of when you pressed the shutter button.
* -- Quote from Marc Levoy via The Verge:
"The moment you press the shutter it's not actually taking a shot — it already took the shot," says Levoy. "It took lots of shots! What happens when you press the shutter button is it just marks the time when you pressed it, uses the images it's already captured, and combines them together."
It's a major usability improvement on the HDR+ mode in last year's Nexus 6P and 5X. "What used to happen last year is you'd press the shutter button and you'd get this little circle going around while it captured the images you need for the burst; now it's already captured those," says Levoy. "And that's big, because that means that you can capture the moment you want."
* -- https://www.theverge.com/2016/10/18/13315168/google-pixel-camera-software-marc-levoy
Pixel 2
Portrait Mode - Simulates bokeh for improved subject separation from the background. The front camera of the Pixel 2 only provides Portrait Mode when a human face is detected, and the rear camera can work on an object, an animal, a human, etc because it uses information from the Dual Pixel PDAF sensor to detect depth. Google Camera ports for non-Pixel phones can NOT do this so all ports for non-Pixel phones utilize the front camera technique for both front & rear (which means all ports for non-Pixel phones can only properly apply bokeh when a human face is detected).
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2017/10/portrait-mode-on-pixel-2-and-pixel-2-xl.html
Motion Photos - Provides short clips of moments before and after you take the photo.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/03/behind-motion-photos-technology-in.html
Pixel 3
Top Shot - When Motion is set to Auto or On, Pixel will recommend a better photo to you if it detects one. Like if you captured a photo when someone blinked.
* -- Demo:
Photobooth - Automatically capture a photo when Pixel detects a silly face or a smile.
Super Res Zoom - Enhances zoomed picture quality by purposely shifting the camera module using OIS (Pixel 3 only) to gather more data.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/10/see-better-and-further-with-super-res.html
Motion Metering - On the Pixel 3 Motion Metering is used in the "default photo mode" to detect subject motion and if it detects enough motion, Pixel will shoot with a faster shutter speed to reduce subject blur. The Pixel 1 and 2 get to use this in Night Sight only.
* -- Further reading (about 1/3 down the article): https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/night-sight-seeing-in-dark-on-pixel.html
Synthetic Fill Flash - Pixel 3 will brighten faces in selfies.
Tracking Autofocus - Tap on a subject or area to keep focus when the subject or phone moves.
Learning Based White Balance - Google's attempt to fix white balance for low light photos. Used in Night Sight and HDR Enhanced on the Pixel 3.
* -- Further read (about 1/2 down the article): https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/night-sight-seeing-in-dark-on-pixel.html
Portrait Mode Learned Depth - Pixel 3 improves the rear camera Portrait Mode depth detection for more consistent and more pleasing bokeh.
* -- Advanced read: https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/11/learning-to-predict-depth-on-pixel-3.html

-Add Xlib2 (another reduced contrast option) and modify to support Pixel 3 Portrait bokeh on Pixel 2
-Add Portrait and Night Sight App Shortcuts from back.rider555
Known Issues on Android 8.1:
-Tapping to focus breaks autofocus. Exiting camera or switching modes/cameras fixes this.
-Night Sight will crash the very first time you use it after installation. It appears to run just fine after that until you Clear Data of the app.
P3v9.1_GoogleCamera_6.1.021.apk
-Disable HDR+ mode resetting for Pixel 1 when opening Camera
-Add "reduce contrast" option which loads a custom lib by Savitar to reduce black crush a little bit. I have not tested in all conditions. Feel free to test at your own discretion and provide your thoughts with comparison pics.
Known Issues on Android 8.1:
-Tapping to focus breaks autofocus. Exiting camera or switching modes/cameras fixes this.
-Night Sight will crash the very first time you use it after installation. It appears to run just fine after that until you Clear Data of the app.
P3v9_GoogleCamera_6.1.021.apk
-Revert default color accent to Google Blue by popular request
-Fix HDR+ mode resetting for Pixel 1
-Exif fix (big thanks to @Arnova8G2 for helping)
-Fix Night Sight for Android 8.1 (big thanks to BSG)
Known Issues on Android 8.1:

P3v8.6_GoogleCamera_6.1.021.apk
-Change default color accent to Google Green
-Add P3 Mod Settings>Permanent Night Sight Suggestion
--Provides an always on button to enter Night Sight
-If P3 Mod Settings toggles are changed, the camera will restart automatically to apply the changes (be careful if HDR+ is Processing) (thanks @fu24 / namok)
Known Issues on Android 8.1:
-Tapping to focus breaks autofocus. Exiting camera or switching modes/cameras fixes this.
-Night Sight will crash the very first time you use it after installation. It appears to run just fine after that until you Clear Data of the app.
-Night Sight viewer is black. There is a fix for this but then it requires Flash to be set to Auto/On for it to work properly. I don't use Flash ever so this is not a good option to me at the moment. I opted for the black screen until a fix can be found. Thanks for understanding. Wait until the focus ring is gone, or choose your focus in the Focus Option on the top right, then click the photo.
P3v8.5_GoogleCamera_6.1.021.apk
-Cleaned up P3 Mod Settings. Settings not relevant for Android 8.1 are removed, and PVC toggle is removed for non-Pixel 2/3.
-Add P3 Mod Settings>HDR+ Enhanced for Portrait toggle. This increases dynamic range, at the cost of shutter delay. Force close the app is required for the setting to change. (Credit to BSG for the method)
-Tried to adjust some stuff for Wear remote shutter support but I need a proper log if there's issues still.
P3v8_GoogleCamera_6.1.021.apk
Must uninstall old version due to signature change.
-Support for Android 8.1 (referenced BSG's latest versions)
-Settings>P3 Mod Settings
--Toggles to switch Photo viewers (Classic or Google Photos), Enable Pixel Visual Core for ZSL HDR+, Disable Learning Based AWB in HDR Enhanced, & Disable Tracking Autofocus. The last 2 options only work on Android 9, so the toggles don't do anything for Android 8.1

P3v7_GoogleCamera_6.1.021.apk
P3v6_GoogleCamera_6.1.013.apk
Uninstall old version. This has a different package name (to fix Lens). The new app is in your app drawer labeled CameraP3.
-Lens option in More
-Pixel 3 Portrait mode (which seems to only improve the rear lens Portraits, so no improvement on Pixel 1 probably)
-Removed HDR+ Options for now due to bugs/instability/confusion
Only tested on Pixel 2. I don't have a Pixel 1 to test with to offer fixes for.
P3v5_GoogleCamera_6.1.013.apk
-Add workaround for Pixel 1 rear Portrait (only works on human faces)

FAQ
Q: "I already have a Pixel, why do I need to use a GCam mod?"
A: Here are the added benefits of Camera PX:
All Pixels:
Ability to choose Camera, Portrait, or Night Sight as the default mode
Custom Lib options to reduce black crush, improve details, and/or increase clarity
Ability to choose 4K Time Lapse quality
Ability to choose zoom level in Portrait Mode of 1.2x or 2.0x (for the rear camera)
Ability to choose to enable HDR+ Enhanced for Portrait Mode
Option to have quicker access to Night Sight by "permanently" adding the little message at the bottom regardless of measured light (admittedly it disappears if you capture a photo in regular mode)
Option to increase shutter speed and frames in Night Sight for potentially "better" Night Sight photos
Option to disable the "Learning AWB" in HDR+ Enhanced/Night Sight
Option for manual shutter speed & ISO
Face warping is completely disabled
In addition to the above, these are the added features for specific devices (when compared to the stock app):
Pixel 1:
Portrait Mode (only when a "human face" is detected, does not work on objects/animals like Pixel 2, 3, 3a)
Removes the HDR+ mode reset on launch or when leaving settings
Synthetic Fill Flash (brightens faces when there is a strong backlight)
Motion Photos & Top Shot (if you have the correct Google Photos APK installed)
HEVC option
Photobooth
Adds focus button in Night Sight (Auto/Near/Far)
Tracking Autofocus in Photo mode
Super Res Zoom sharpening algorithm
Pixel 2:
"Learned Depth" for Portrait Mode which provides, usually, a more accurate depth detection and more pleasing bokeh
Synthetic Fill Flash (brightens faces when there is a strong backlight)
Top Shot (if you have the correct Google Photos APK installed)
HEVC option
Photobooth
Adds focus button in Night Sight (Auto/Near/Far)
Tracking Autofocus in Photo mode
Super Res Zoom sharpening algorithm
Pixel 3:
-Adds 60ps option to top bar in Video mode
Pixel 3a:
Synthetic Fill Flash (brightens faces when there is a strong backlight)
Q: Do I need to change any settings?
A: This mod is optimized for the Pixels to run without changing any settings. There are some advanced settings in P3 Mod Settings. Experiment at your own will.

The best Gcam mods.. thanks @cstark27

Gives me 410 gone Error when trying to Download

Amazing work ? However, there seems to be a problem if the PVC is used. After rapidly taking multiple photos in normal mode or portrait mode, there is a delay to take the next shot. In Pv7 without the PVC, this wasn't the issue.
True, PVC does help process faster though.

What's the problem with pixel 3 AWB in HDR Enhanced? Just wonder should I switch it off or not

@cstark27
Thanks a lot for this new mod. Works great!
One request:
If it is not too much trouble, could you allow the "Enable camera sounds" toggle to always appear in "Settings", irrespective of region?

This is the best app Ive ever used. Thanks a bunch for the work.

This is truly the best mode thus far. Kudos for the work, man.

open it in a browser with open link a new tab option.

I am running "PieX BETA ROM"(Android Pie) on my Nexus 5x, and I tried installing the P3v8 App on it.
Every time I use "night mode", the "Quick Step" launcher crashes when I try to quit the app.
I tried this many times, each time, after using the night mode, the launcher crashes.
Then I have to (most of the time) restart the phone to get everything working again.
Is there any trick to get this to work?
Thanks.

Yes there are still limitations to the config. I hope Google is working on improving it to match or exceed the great work they have done to utilize the Hexagon DSP, and then hopefully they make it the default method in the future. But who knows.

See "Google Camera Features" under Introduction in the OP to see what it does. Then know that the Pixel 3 applies this learning based AWB to HDR+ Enhanced, as well as night mode. Some may not prefer to have this behavior on their older Pixel phones where it may not be as accurate, and/or doesn't capture the scene as your eyes see it. This setting does not disable it for Night Sight.

I still see the strip of photos ("Shots in this Photo") when swiping up in Google Photos. Do you have that still? Recommended and Best Shot has always been random for me, and I don't use Motion Photos by default so my experience is limited. I have a link in the FAQ in the first post on how to get Top Shot working. Basically you just need the listed Google Photos installed.

Make sure you have the 4.6 Daydream 500+ DPI Photos app. Just google it.
It is working fine here with v8. I am really digging the new options in the cam
