Can anyone port google camera with hdr+ for zenfone 3 ze520kl/ze552kl

Can anyone make google camera with hdr+ work on zenfone 3 ze520kl/ze552kl. Tried every version and each config settings inside the app. Even redmi note 4 supports it but zenfone 3 don't, despite of having a good sensor

@saswatmeher05
Might be an issue with the viper rom then, I've had no issues wit hdr+ enabled and stock settings.
Have you tried the stock Rom to eliminate that as a possibility?

bro ive tried on stock rom but didn't work so I switched to a custom rom but didn't work either. Btw hdr+ works when the config shows in bottom of the screen like(pixel experimental features). And taping on preview it shows hdr+ processing. If it clicks with no shutter delay and no popup then its normal image not hdr+ processed.
If working for someone then what are the settings. Keep in mind that I'm talking about hdr+ processed photos, not just normal captures. When it shows processing on the screen after u tap the shutter button then its hdr+ processed if not then its just a normal image.
I see it takes pictures @ 12Mp (4:3) instead of 16Mp.
Also, I don't think HDR (or ZSL) settings make a difference...
The picture I've taken with Google Camera are grainier (especially shadows) than with Asus, using 12Mp settings in both.

hey bro I know the camera app is working just like google camera but the problem is that it isn't working with hdr+ . When hdr+ processes the image it takes seconds and looks different than normal shot(Tried with my brother's oneplus 3t). Some people on youtube are claiming that it works(with hdr+ processing) in redmi note 4(snapdragon 625 variant).

ya bro not making any difference since it gives fc on hdr+ processing. If the photo is not hdr processed then its a normal picture. i've tried how the hdr+ works on my brother's oneplus 3t. the difference is very noticeable.
I installed the apk on my ze552kl running stock nougat with latest update. I keep getting force close when I open google camera. Is this a known issue in general and is there a fix/workaround?
edit: did some reading and this seems to be related to the ambient lighting when you turn on the camera. if you're in a well lit area the camera will work, when i pan towards a darker place (or open the camera in a darker place) the camera immediately FC's

no, GCMod5 dont work on ZenFone 3 after oreo update. GCMod5 uses a maximum resolution of 9,4 megapixels, but the stock asus camera app uses a maximum resolution of 16/12 megapixels.

Problem with front cam on Nubia Z17 Lite

Hey guys.
I`ve rooted my Nubia Z17 Lite and installed Google Cam and Meziu Cam, thank you for your great work.
Back camera works fine with Google Cam and Meizu Cam- I can choose my max pic resolution : 13 mpx. And high video recording.
But there is a problem with front camera on theese apps. I can record HD videos but apps detecs my front camera as ... 3 mpx. I can`t change the resolution.
So question is: Nubia Z17 Lite has really 16 Mpx front camera or is it only 3 Mpx cam and that is a lie from ZTE. Or do I have to change something in system settings? Please help me with it
Hi. I have rooted my phone but I have not tried the google cam and meizu cam.
Do you have the links for them? I can try.

Which version of Google camera do you use? I tried some, but they either were crashing or making photos with green squares. Although video seems to work and have electronic stabilization.
Regarding 3 Mpx thing - it is probably something in software. When you move a diagnostic app to system app, it will have access to all information and it will show camera info properly. Mine shows two Sony 13 Mpx sensors and one Samsung 16 Mpx (see the attached screenshot).
@lapist thank you so much for your reply.
I download app and it shows me I have a 3 mpx camera. 3 mpx and resolutions 2080 x 1560. Is it a big lie of Nubia that there is a 16 mpx cam or is it system failure? What do you thing about its?

It shows me the same information, but without root and system access rights, the app won't show you the actual hardware.
You need to be rooted and move the app from data to system partition to see the hardware properly, as I shown on my screenshot.
So no, it is not just 3 megapixels , but from camera has 16 Mpx Samsung sensor.
@lapist my phone is rooted. Where exacly I have to move the app on my disc?

You just need to convert the app to system app. You can use any tool (e.g. App Systemizer from magisk plugins) or move the app folder from /data/app to /system/app.
BTW, Nokia camera app sees front camera as 16 megapixels.
i have Z17 premuim and i ve same problem my app camera give me just 12.2mpx in back cam , i think the secondary cam it not work or problem in software. ??
thanks you for help ;
Front camera is quad cfa (four pixels arranged in one) raw output has quad bayer demosaic, so all apps using camera2 will see 4 mp output. That's it.

If your stock dng mode has a working toggle between back cameras the second back camera (aux) is working.

This is forum for Z17 Lite, not premium.
If you want to use the camera at max resolution, you need to switch to sensor's native ratio, which is 4:3...not 16:9. It is the same on all cameras - 16:9 is just cropped.

12 mp is already native 4:3 ratio. His problem is aux camera which is 23 mp. I see no problem here.

Tell me what settings for "Config camera HDR +" and "Model"
Does HDR work at all?

HDR+ doesn't work.
Thanks for your reply. It seems that there is no logic to use gcam in that case.

It is good mainly for videos - gcam has EIS, while stock Nubia app doesn't have any stabilization.
And gcam is also good for panoramas and spheres.
One more question. On HomTom ht17 with mtk cpu, the old gcam v2.7 has a hdr option. I install the same version on z17 lite and hdr does not exist!
Any of the older gcam to install, none has a hdr, and the Chinese cheap phone with mtk cpu has. How that ?

R u using stock or custom rom? U can enable selfie mirror in stock rom. Also u can enjoy with gcam. Download gcam tool from play store, upgrade it to pro at ₹ 130 it prevents image fliping.

Long exposure photography

I have tried multiple apps on my 6GB variant of the Zenfone Max Pro M1 but no app allows to take long exposures. Does anybody have a solution?
Note- Camera2api is enabled.
OpenCamera, Footej Camera workes for me. I personally used OpenCamera, but I've moved to Footej Camera recently for better UI. This picture was shot with OpenCamera.

I have tried both apps but the shutter speed does not go beyond half a second.
I want to take 10-20 second exposures.
Ah I didn't read that your device is the 6GB varian.. Mine's 4GB. I have no idea whether there's a difference or not, sorry.

3rd party camera apps (maybe GCAM) for the Zoom lens?

Was wondering if there are any 3rd party apps that work for the Zoom lens on this Zenfone 3 zoom device? Maybe a version of gcam?
Thanks

I don't remember which version, but some versions of gcam had the ability to switch to the zoom lens by holding down the camera switch button.

They do, yes, but there are lots of artifacts on the screen while taking the picture and the pictures can't be saved in your storage. I don't know if it's different for someone with a rooted device, would be nice to know.
