The 58x series are slightly old (mid 2018), so you can't expect great performances from the IMX582.
But my current phone (OnePlus One) has an IMX214 (2014), so my next one (POCO F3) will be a great improvement...!

It is because when you use night sight you have to open the options and disable "astrophotography".
By the way, last bsg gcam version (mgc_8.1.101_A9_GVq_MGC.apk) is working fine on poco f3, I can use the 3 sensors and quality is already way better than defaut cam on main sensor. I hope someone can create a good configfile.xml for our device so we can unleash the potential of the camera which seems not really well handled by default software and settings.

Since everyone on the huge OnePlus 3 thread gets tetchy if you raise queries about other phones, I decided to start a discussion thread. What have your experiences with these mods been, and which variations work best for you?
Personally, I've opted for the recent Google Camera Pixel Mods by @Arnova8G2 as they seem to give the best all-round functionality on this phone. I can switch between the various mods and configs without a hitch, and portrait mode works a charm. I find that the main Arnova mod (GCMod5) doesn't seem to work well on this phone in Portrait mode, either failing to take a pic without HDR + or giving greenish selfies with HDR+ active; his Pixel Mod, on the other hand, works perfectly.
Google Camera Pixel Mod links: Original version (more options in advanced); v1 (improved video stabilisation).
Recommendation: If you want detailed main and selfie cam pictures, set the model config to "Nexus 5x" instead of "Nexus 6P"; I was dissatisfied with the selfies on the latter config, but after reading this by B-S-G, I switched and all was well. The main camera config, as with the actual Nexus phones, is exactly the same.
UPDATE (11/2/20):
Recommended cams:
Oreo: MGC_5.1.018_tolyan009_v1.4.1-test6.apk
Pie: MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e+.apk (no libs)/(w/libs)/(dark menu w/libs)
10: MGC_7.2.014_Parrot043-v3.apk ; MGC_6.1.021_mi6 edition _v7.7a (6.1 interface, plenty of libs, XML compatibility).

Edit:
New Cam Mod Released by @Arnova8G2
2018/01/22 – GoogleCamera-PixelMod
ChangeLog :
Fix green picture in front HDR+ for Moto Z
Add toggle "Improve photos in low light"
Setting of the parameter menu
Add About by respect of the developers
Other code for the HDR+ of the front camera (OP3/OP3T/OP5/OP5T)
Version tested on MI5 Android 8.1, This version replaces the original version of google and BSG.
---
I tried on my device with Cosmic OS from 20/01 and everything works except for the portrait mode on front cam where the shots have some greenish effect.
Please @Arnova8G2 can you fix this? Thanks!

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DyVUSAFULlZYA8JQu959wL7Glwao_6Tr
This "Pixel2Mod" doesn't work as well for this phone as the "PixelMod". Greenish front HDR+, followed by crashes; plus, all the model/HDR+ configuration options are gone.
@Arnova8G2, if you could add a toggle to fix the greenish/pinkish tint on the back camera's "HDR+ on" mode, and perhaps stick in your "improve photos in low light" toggle, the original "PixelMod" would be the best GCam mod for this phone, hands down.

may I ask in which ROMs Google Camera works properly ?
I know that it works on AEX 5.1 but that ROM seems to be buggy for me , I did not like it. I use RR v5.8.3 for a long time since it is very stable and battery life is good but I tried to install Google Camera in that ROM , no luck..
Does any of the Nougat ROMs for Zuk Z2 Pro supports camera2api ? anyone knows?

I don't think any Nougat ROM for this phone supports Camera2API. It was kinda a big deal when it was annouced for AEX 5.1. What version of 5.1 was "buggy" for you? The latest official version has issues, but the New Year's Eve beta works great.

The last version works really slow for me.. for example double tab to wake feature works with 1-2 seconds delay. Same as pressing power button to wake device up works with delay.. Wifi toggle also same.. I mean in general feeling ROM was quite slow compared to RR Nougat ROM. I saw your post about new year's eve version in another topic , I downloaded it and tried to install but somehow same gapps which was working in latest version did not work in new year's eve version.. Can you tell me which gapps (with release date of gapps) did you flash exactly?
Last 2 days I keep switching between ROMs to check which one is most stable.. I should say that definitely Stock ROM with Android 8 is the fastest and most stable one. But it is very frustrating that you can not use Google Camera in that ROM , such an annoyance.. howcome ZUI developers did not include camera2api in Oreo version , i could not understand

I use your version 1.7 beta 2 and work great with aex 8.1 and z2row
I was wondering which One is better forum the mi A2 lite
i think mi a2 module is beter for low light photos if u use in manual mode but gcam goes all the way ?
Ive tested many camera apps on mi a2 lite and I think that the pixel2mod v8.2 is the best ( need the camera2api enabled )
I like the gcam. But if you zoom in, the photos always have more noise (this sandy effect the high ISO makes) and, therefore, lower quality pictures. But better color treatment. So, overall, I'll say that the MiA2 module is better than the gcams I've tested.

The OTA update from July to September was working without problems here with Camera2 API enabled.
Btw, also using gcam 8.2 by Arnova.
Going back to the thread question...
After a few days of regular use (not testing use) I choose Mi A2 camera with no doubt (I don't use the front camera, and I don't usually take pictures to people). I'll keep both cameras because they offer different functions, but I'll never shoot with gcam HDR (which is suposed to be it's strenght). In the gcam R5plus_fix_crash (the one I use now), it is extremly bright (burned photos) and there is a lot of noise in the picture. And with the Arnova8G2, it takes forever to process after taking the photo. I haven't had any issue with the A2 camera. However, with the A2 camera, there isn't much diference between pictures shot with HDR or wthout it.
This is my modded Gcam for Mi 9T.
Basically it's @Urnyx05 mod but I was able to fix the excessive noise in photos with Zoom 2x sensor.

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.
Do you know if there is a version with working video/settings and auxiliary cameras support?
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.

You should check the quality of a stock camera and Google camera 7, the difference is big. Megapixels has nothing to do with that but the software algorithm does. Gcam has awesome algorithm. And it's 12 and 9 MP by the way.

This gcam is the first one I realli notice a difference from stock. In others, I felt that only night sight was better, but this one is good

What's the reason of having gcam if it only shoots in 12 and 5 MP? Even the ones that have 48mp option they shoot 12mp

Those are kinda "fake" 48mp. The 12mp are better with gcam. It's unnecessary to use more megapixels.

Even with good Algorithm, 48 to 12 is a big cap :\

Thank you so much for these recommended settings, I will definitively try it out!
What about libaries? In version 6.2 it was recommended to switch from standard google libs to custom libs. Is it ok to go with standard google libs on version 7.0?
Slow Motion not working.

Not for me. I think it should turn on even when you have phone laying on table.
Do you guys also notice that this camera is more zoomed in than what you get on the stock camera with the main camera?

Hello,
I had until now a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 and the GCam from Parrot043 version 7.3.020.296349306 V8.
I take a lot of photos with people. The quality with this phone and this app are incredible. The details of the faces, hair, sharpness is almost perfect for me.
Now I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 and a 10 pro, and with both phones I have not find a GCam app that works and also takes good pictures.
The Parrot043 app unfortunately doesn't work and keeps crashing.
The only app that can keep up to some extent is the MTSL Cam V7.2 app, see link below:
MTSL: MTSLCam_V7.2
Download MTSLCam_V7.2 by MTSL.
www.celsoazevedo.com
Is there a way to somehow transfer the configuration from Parrot043 to the MTSL Cam?
Or what settings would you optimize on the MTSL app for photos with people?
Or is there a Parrot043 that works with Xiaomi 11/10?
Thank you for any hints
You could try latest Parrot043 8.4 V1.5 version.

Thank you very much. I have just tried it out.
The app works without crashing. But you have to switch on the white balance otherwise the photos are green.
Unfortunately, the quality does not come close to the photos from the MTSL, i.e. the individual hairs of a person are relatively blurred. See below/attached image-link.
The photos also lack colour saturation. Where is the best place to set this?
But, MTSL needs a long time before you can take a new photo.

But merge method to method 1 super res zoom. It improves sharpness a lot.

Use MTSL if it's better.. Parrot043 gcams is simply with not many settings. Other gcams have more settings to front and rear cameras.
You could also try LMC 8.4 or Shamim 8.4 gcam builds. I mainly use LMC on my phone(Moto phone) and i like that very much. Settings is easy to find and modify.

It's not better than old parrot043 version for xiaomi redmi note 7, and it needs long time to save a photo, so cannot take several photos very fast... :-(

I have tried all of them and the quality is poor, i.e. the hair appears blurred. This is very frustrating. :-(
And here on the forum, the settings seem for me more focused on so landscapes, and not people.
The MTSL V7.2 with Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 comes close in quality to the Parrot043 version 7.3.020.296349306 V8 with Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, but unfortunately it takes a long time to process a photo.
I am already surprised that with the right app, a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 takes the better photos (of people) than a Xiaomi Redmi Note 11.
Is there no thread for Gcam Xiaomi Redmi Note 11?
However, my last solution would now be to configure current Parrot043 Gcam App, according Parrot043 version 7.3.. step by step, BUT unfortunately the developer settings of Parrot043 version 7.3.. are not disclosed.
How or where could I get these settings? Is "Parrot043" a user here in the forum? Are there any ways to contact him?
Thank you
