[Q] Moto X Camera KITKAT Version (Possible port?)

Hello everyone,
I was a little sad with Nexus 4 Camera APK, i do not like it.
But I tested MOTO X Camera in my GNEX 4 and I REALLY saw BIG changes in terms of quality, stability and speed.
Now, I saw that this camera in 4.4 version got even better. So my point is.
Is it possible to port this camera to nexus 4?

Note 4 + Glamour Rom vs G4 questions

So I have the M9 and like so far but I can't but wanting a big screen like Note 4 and G4.
Since the G4 is not properly rooted and have nearly non existent roms, I throw an eye to the Note 4/Edge.
I am not a fan of stock Note 4 TW but more into S6 one, Glamour Rom looks like it's a port of S6 UI into the Note 4.
Here are my questions:
-Is this rom improving UI speed?
-Do you still have lags?
-Is it enhancing the camera?
How can you compare the Note 4 + S6 port Camera to G4?

1) I personally haven't noticed any differences in terms of performance compared to the stock rom, but I am a light to medium user (occasional gaming, but mostly call features).
2) Yes. There will always be lag in all roms since no roms are perfect. I experienced few hiccups and restart solved the lag issue.
3) Stock rom performs better when it comes to camera. Samsung optimized its driver for the camera pretty well, however the stock rom doesn't contain RAW support.
Compared to the G4, Note 4's camera performs better according to several sources: Phonearena, DxOMark, and Sofica.

In front and back camera for portrait mode

Nokia 6 and moto g4 plus both are work in stock android
In Nokia 6 Google camera to possible portrait mode
But moto g4 plus why can't install
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/themes/google-camera-hdr-portrait-selfie-t3733577
Please dev work camera

Portrait mode not only needs software but also a hardware support! The processor support is needed.. The processors used might be different! Also, I haven't seen the ROM of Nokia 6... For portrait mode the ROM needs to be 64bit.
Google camera's portrait mode is made for pixel 2..look at its specs and the processor and the camera hardware it carries.
I don't know about Nokia 6's config so won't be able to comment exactly the difference.
But please don't ask devs to do something. They provide stuff for free and they know what to provide when! They do it in their free time hence the delay. We all have out lives apart from this forum!
You can use lens blurr in google camera for now it works in the same way.

It also doesn't help that on oreo, we don't have a stable camera.
Remember that even if the phone had the same CPU the implementation could be completely different and would require separate methods of porting.
The Pixel 2 features of GCAM is designed to be only used on the, guess what? The Pixel 2. The community has ported over the features to work on many devices but it is not designed to run on all devices.
We might even have to wait for the official release of stock oreo, please be patient and see.

Agreed with the above post. as far as i know, Gcam works effectively on 64 bit ROM with camera2api and Oreo. We still do not have official Oreo neither do we have oreo camera drivers to support it.

Why Google camera is working on Moto g5 plus and not on Moto g4 plus since both have ported 64bit ROM

Google Camera 6.1 Mod

Guys I have been searching a lot for the latest Google Camera 6.1 Mod, (Pixel 3 one with Nightsight) for AOSP based ROMs, didn't find any.
Please drop a link to the one that you guys are using. preferably a TWRP flashable.
TIA, please be kind, Noob here.

The camera was barely ported with portrait mode and it isn't even working that good. Personally i think we would never the nightsight for our exynos processors, snapdragon maybe?

I'm also looking forward to behaving pixel 3 camera with night sight for galaxy s7 exynos

Gcam viewfinder app port on WearOS with non-pixel devices

Has anyone been able to get any of the GCam ports working on WearOS.
I have tried multiple GCam port and none seem to support the WearOS viewfinder app. I have tested the Gcam port on 3 devices Samsung S8, Note 9 and A71 with Fossil Gen 5 and Motorola 360 Gen3.
I loved using the viewfinder Gcam app on wearOS with my Google Pixel 4 and am trying to so with same with other Android devices.
Let me know if you one was able to get it to work.

I want to know, too.
Had no luck either. Motorola g 5g.
