Ok,
-flash was successful
-phone boot
-camera works!!
Quick autofocus on first look much better how los camera for test quality need a more time. HDR don't work (or I don't know) video don't work no 720p and too 1080p

I already tested Footej cam (with high quality), couple Google cam etc but in this moment is I can say is best camera. I don't know when I make comparison btw LOS stock cam and OP5 (uf that is easy) and EMUI camera btw OP5 (this is no easy) my cam test can bring some reliability... but this take some time

I recommned to try
edit: OP5 gallery uploading photos realy long time, still is not finished, but if u enter from cam app is quick

are you sure if the video recording is broken??

Just flashed , gonna try it out!!! Thx

wait there's a bokeh? where? I just uninstalled the cam again
I'm not really a camera guy but i sure do like the bokeh.
Would be sweet for the handful pics i take in a year
And yes video recording is broken. Says stopped due to an error.
On the latest RROS ( although with B380 base, whatever problem that may or may not cause)
Edit : went back again
Can confirm:
-video recording broken ( stops immediately)
-Panorama broken ( takes 1 still picture, no other response)
- HDR doesn't work ( upper task bar fades on pressing it, won't activate)
-pro mode missing (?)
- Gallery doesn't load thumbnails ( for cam pics)
- can't edit pictures ( gives error )

Has anyone gotten the new Google Camera with HDR+ to work on this phone?

Tried installing this one.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/themes/google-camera-hdr-t3656174
I'm on Razziel's Nougat RR. The app FC's immediately. Doesn't run for me.
I think HDR+ it's working only on newest Snapdragon SoCs like 820, 821 etc...

Take a look at the link in my post above. They claim it works for "almost all Nougat devices".
I got it working on kenzo, which has Snapdragon 650.

The problem is RR doesn't have the camera api2, I asked in another thread if anyone knew of a rom that had it but so far no reply

There aren't ROMs based on Nougat with API2 support, if you use API2 for camera video recording can't work anymore.
thanks N1ck474, then no HDR+ camera for use then
Try Footej Camera pro. You can search the apk
Ah, yes. I forgot about the api2 issue. This can certainly be fixed in a future rom update, though, can't it?

Edit we use only hal3 so hdr+ won't be working untill we find a way to fix camera2api
Its work for me, if you use magisk, there is module for camera2api.
I got it to work, just download the Google camera (Snapdragon 600+) apk from this link and install it.
Then, edit or add this to the build prop ( I used ES file explorer) - persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
Photos are really good. I leave it on auto HDR+

Experienced the instant FC and editing build.prop fixed that issue. Next issue is recording with back camera makes the app FC. Front facing camera works fine for recording though. When using any other camera app the reverse is true, front camera FC's and back camera works.
I'm on LOS 28/8. Stock camera is bugged so I will continue to use Bacon Camera until a fix comes around.

Nope, it needs Android N.
I got it working on karevns LineageOS 14.1 ROM. But had to edit build.prop to enable HAL3, just a quick fix, but requires root (use MagiskSU for this)

I've installed the camera port as well, the recent one with raw support. But I cannot find raw captured image(setting enabled under experimental option). The hdr+ also seems to have no effect on image quality. I've enabled HAL3.
Rom: RR 5.8.5 by hrafninn, with default kernel.
Edit: I've downloaded another version (GCamera Pro 3.3b) from main thread link, and it works as expected, auto hdr+ and raw support, with hal3 enabled. Some prescribed modifications had to be done on settings.
Settings to modify:
Max Settings:
Buffers size: 28
Total imagereader image count: 52
hdr+ burst frame count: 60
Calculation imagereader image count: PixelXL
hrd+ imagereader image count: 10

For me the Slow Motion Tab causes the camera to crash, I think due to hardware limitations, this happens in any port of the camera app. Also in the port mentioned in the beginning of this thread video recording in normal mode causes a crash.

I just realized that all Google Camera App ports are crashing if trying to record video for me. Seems like a bug special to my ROM (karevns LOS 14.1)

Camera crashes for video recording on mine too. Additionally, I can't capture panorama or 360 photos with hal3 enabled. Disabling it allows me to capture 360 photo with street view, but gcam crashes.

Best settings for Google Camera ported (by Arnova8G2)

Hi guys,
first, I'd like to thank to @Arnova8G2 for his development and porting of Google camera. Due to his effort, many of our phones take much better photos than with stock camera. If you don't know what the app is, please visit this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/themes/app-collection-camera-modded-t3591177
His app has many different settings and I wonder what are the best setting available. If we can find the best settings, we all can take better photos!
I made a small form which I please you to fill (takes aprox. one minute): https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1...ntry.560585008=95%+(default)&entry.1874216323
Thank you everyone!
So please fill:
Device you own (I know this is Mi5 section, but still, GCam is used by many others)
Which ROM you run and version of it (Lineage 15.1, 14.1 etc.)
Settings you use
Sample photos (at day, at night, portrait mode, video ...)
Results
Or just share it down here.

Hey ! Nice initiative.
I'm running on Mi5 with Google PixelMod mod by Arnova8G2 5.1.018-v1 . Settings :
-Model : Nexus 6P
-Config : Nexus 6P
-Option HDR+ On
-HDR+ Parameters : super high
-ZSL On
This is a great idea, let's set up a spreadsheet where people can input their settings, so we can easily get an overview of what's in use?
Which fields to you think are most important? (don't want to over complicate things)

For sample photos we should only take on comparison photos (same user, motif, different settings) if possible. Would be easier to spot the differences. On the spreadsheet, we should also classify the most used settings as separate, named groups, to minimize clutter and find the best setup.

Yes it is!
Go and edit this file: /system/etc/camera/msm8996_camera.xml
You can use ES_File Explorer built in Note editor.
Look for:
<Position>FRONT</Position>
<MountAngle>360</MountAngle>
and change the "360" for "270". There's 2 times on this file.
It will be:
<Position>FRONT</Position>
<MountAngle>270</MountAngle>
Now save and reboot the phone.
TESTED on MI 5 MIUI 9 GLOBAL Beta 8.2.1
GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V5
just install the new apk no need to set manually

Yep thats it. the file's already modified in new version (360->270), but the problem persist.
Maybe we just have sit for a while until the next version released. Perhaps
stable rom its working properly
Was attempting to match some of the results in this thread, but by changing GCam versions I've lost my front camera HDR in LOS 14.1
Any recommendations for me? Configured for Nexus 6 Auto/Nexus 6P/High/95% JPEG. Tried the following:
Arnova's 5.1.018_v1.5 - Previously functional, but now no front camera HDR+ and front cam portrait is upside down.
Arnova's 5.1.018_v1.6 - Same as 1.5
Arnova's 5.1.018_v1.7 - Not a fan of manual focus, same issue
Am I missing something? Always clearing data for version install, and stopping/starting app for each setting change.
Solved: GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V6 on LOS 14.1 has all my HDR+, all portrait, and no more upside-down photos. Other than the directories created for each photo; I can't figure out how to disable that.

Worth using the Gcam vs stock Moto camera?

With a hell lot of beta versions of gcam being developed daily of different variants, I just wanted to know if it's really worth a shot flashing a custom Oreo ROM and using those Gcams, instead of stock Moto Camera. What are your thoughts?
For me, not really, instead i use snap camera hdr , that app give me better results than gcam but gcam has a faster hdr algorithm that can be essencial for fast moving objects for example, or fast pictures snap. The autofocus of gcam never worked that well for me, but the portrait worked very well. On custom rom you lose slowmotion.

Dude don't listen to this duncan dude. gcam is amazing now. focus is just as good as stock camera and the picture quality is miles ahead. even portrait mode works perfectly fine. the only thing is front portrait is noisy on most camera apps. but the results from back camera are comparable to iphone 7 and s8 and pixel.(seriously- cuz g5 plus uses same sensor as pixel 2)

I had Gcam in RR but Slow motion and Paranoma didn't work
The only Benefit of Gcam over Moto cam is Portrait mode

you can give a Try to Gcam to RR, Worked good for me

[APP] [PIE] [Mi5] Stable Google Camera

Hi everyone!
I was looking for the most stable Gcam for my Mi5 (Gemini) and didn't find newest post about it.
On testing here, GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.2 shows better results and more stable.
Link to download: https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.2.apk
But it is based on Pixel 2, without Night Sight.
The newest release by Arnova8G2 (GoogleCamera_6.1.021.220943556.apk) is really slowly and spend a lot of battery.
There is other bugs on Tolyan009 too (MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-based_v.1.2_TlnNeun.apk), like purple photos with NS and Noise Reduction. Other bug is green and dark photos from front camera.
I got other bugs with camcoder pause/shot functions.
Well, did anyone test another Gcam for Pie that all functions is working?
TRy MGC_6.1.013_B-S-G-based_v.0.6b_TlnNeun.apk
I've been tested almost all Tolyan/Arnova.
The winner is GoogleCamera_6.1.021.220943556: https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/GoogleCamera_6.1.021.220943556.apk
Just one bug: inverted photos using Night sight for selfies.
Minor bug: Battery is a little used more than expected. But I don't think that is an disadvantage cause this version there isn't any lag, good integration with Gphotos and HDR+ processing is fast (1 or 2 seconds to finish).

Can't help. I did a rollback to Android Nougat 7.1.2.
Hi all,
i am still using a fantastic Mi5 Pro and the only issues that i am still having is the google cam battery drain in the pictures shots.
every kind of Gcam, 5 or 6 ver. still have this issues during the processing of the HDR features; the battery can drain 10% in a minute (with 2-3 shots), it's unacceptable....
Any ideas? Thanks
I've long been in a search for the best google pixel camera for the MI-5.
The best I've found (and am using as a daily driver) is this one:
GCam-6.2.030_Arnova8G2_Urnyx05-v2.3.apk
This has/can:
- Close to 0 shutter lag (others often had 0.5-1 second)
- motion photo
- More than 3-4 photos in a burst (had this issue with others, those stopped taking photos while they were 'processing')
- Fast start times (other gcam ports often took 2-4 seconds (!!!) to start up)
(Note, this is in combination with LineageOS 16)

Not my experience: I regularly take photos and the quality is excellent.

the rear cam photo is ok,but the front cam quality is abysmal compared to other gcam versions/ports
have anyone managed to take astrophotography using mi5? mine isn't working. I have tried many gcam 7.1/7.2 ports, none worked. It shows astrophotography on while mounted to tripod but only takes 8/9 seconds to take picture instead of 4 minutes long exposure. I'm using PE10 rom.
Are you still there?
Up to v6-v8 arnova version was the best but there isn't support for Night Sight.
I give up it cause I rollback to Android 7.
Now other person need to use Mi5 and want Gcam with that feature.
Using that:

oxi_arn1.4_mi5_config_v3.xml
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/p/f/2019/10/oxi_arn1.4_mi5_config_v3.xml
The results is great but front camera stills get green photos.
I tried many different settings but the same results (green photos on selfie).
Ths version is very stable, fast and works great with Gphotos. Night Sight is another real good feature.
And on that, I can't use this .XML.
Other versions Selfie isn't green but the quality is very poor and crackled.
Anyone know a hint to solve this?
Thanks.

I am now using Xiaomi's Mi5.
Current Operating System: Pixel Experience Android 10 Plus Edition
Now I am looking for the best Gcam for my phone. Recently I have used some of the Gcam versions. But every one of them has major bugs.
I noticed high battery consumption and experienced various problems( green effect, saturation etc) while taking pictures.
So, I want to know if there is any version available for MI5 which
which doesn't drain fast
close to 0 shutter lag
Fast start times
HDR+ processing is fast
Good integration with Gphotos
Night mode and most of the other features are available
Able to take Perfect Selfie (Without any green/dark effect or saturation problem)
Thanks in advance!!!
Note: Camera2api is enabled in my device. But the phone is not rooted and I don't intend to do so

Redmi Note 7 Global Version - Camera light issue

Hello,
I would like to ask if anyone has encountered the following issue:
When I try to make night photos with light gathering in Pro mode, the camera gathers too much light. Now I try the following settings: WB - Auto; Focus Auto/100; Shutter 4/8/16 seconds; ISO 100 in 48 MP mode. Now what I get with this configuration is too much light absorption. Pictures get really yellow and bright around any light sources. This makes taking pictures of car taillight trail for example impossible.
Now before you say to try different settings - I have. I also have the PRO version of the phone, and pictures are being way way better with the exact same settings. I will upload some examples as soon as I have them on my PC.
Has anyone encountered such an issue with the stock cam app?? Any way to fix it?? Any better cam app that might help out?? Can this be a faulty camera all together and should I contact the seller? (phone bought from China so you can figure how that will go).
Thank you very much in advance

i had exposure problems!
but i used gcam and the camera of lightroom for normal usage and its been good so far
the images of stock camera felt lil bit unnatural to me
yeah! gcam and camera of lightroom would be good
the video recording was too much annoying for me mainly for the crop and noise in the video
and ive been using open camera for video recording which is producin 100 times better result than stock one
even gcam had problem with video recording

Thank you very much. Do I need the phone rooted to use those??Also can you provide links for the gcam / opencamera video recording apps, as well as any configuration you find good?
It just seems strange that 2 phones with presumably same sensor, can make such different photos with the same settings. Yes one is RN7 and the other is RN7P, but still they should have identical cameras.
Thank you in advance!

that is fundamentally incorrect. it's almost as if saying all 12mp sensors on every mainstream phone out there should be same as they output the same 12mp images.
rn7 has samsung isocell gm-1 sensor, which is unproven compared to the sony imx586 on the rn7p. there will be differences for sure.

Hmmm I thought both versions of the phones use the same Sony sensor. Was I wrong in assuming that? I'm pretty sure that's what I've red in the review of the phone.
