[APP Port] p20 pro camera mod ROOT - Honor 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods

All credit goes to LastStandingDroid.
I was just browsing other Kirin 960 forums and noticed that the apk
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8-pro/how-to/firmware-leak-t3760517
https://mega.nz/#!lapy2LxL!7DwzO1QQY7N5DSZi7l64V7efb8dy271CYx2jUWYdb4o
was not mentioned here in Honor 9.
I have just copied/overwritten the original HwCamera2 folder with the p20 one and it worked even without reboot.
New features include pro mode with a monochrome sensor and two options (90/120 fps) with slow-mo.
My device: Honor 9, emui 8 (360), rooted with patched boot Magisk

Just install the zip as a new module in Magisk, reboot and it works too, without having to manually overwrite the original HwCamera folder and files inside

Installed it with Magisk.
It replaced the original camera app for me, and rendered it unusable crashing on startup.
Promptly removed then rebooted again, it works again, but its name is now: "The front camera does not support panoramic shooting in landscape orientation."

Please without root
Would this app somehow modify it to go without root on Honor 9 with Android 8?

What are the advantages exactly related to the Honor 9 camera on latest B363?
The monochrome option already exists and I've noticed on the codec profile files that our Slow Motion option runs at 120fps on FHD and 240 on HD. So switching to 90/120 would be worse... Unless that camera app complements our options instead of replacing them.
(And by the way, B363 firmware also brings AR camera option)

Dunno. Maybe none. I have tested it on b360 without knowing the abovementioned features will ever be available in later builds. Moreover, it had appeared in other Kirin 960 forums, not here.

Do you really have 720p at 240 fps option on your Honor 9 ?
(I'm interested because I have a P10 and we only have 1080p @120fps available ...
Thanks

Slow Motion has 2 resolution options, 1024 and 720. And if you look at system related files (now i don't remember exactly which ones), you'll see that 1024p runs at 120 and 720p runs at 240.

Honor 7 mapillary app - camera issue, broken?

Hi!
I try to use the mapillary app on the new honor 7 64GB model to get good 20MP pictures while moving around (like google streetview, but free to use).
But the camera on the honor 7 does only allow 640x480 in the mapillary app and the shutter sound is not to be disabled.
If I use the camera app, it does make use of the 20 MP mode.
I tried the original Android 5.0 and the new Android 5.1.1 beta - all of them show the same error with mapillary.
Does anyone of you do have the same issues? Can anyone test it?
I tried with honor 6 - here it works fine, mapillary can make 13MP pictures, also on all other android mobiles I testes (HTC one, moto g2, Rebel,..).
Thank you,
echelon
Many apps are incompatible with Honor 7 and in some case not fully compatible, like you figured out, for Mapilliary
Hi !
Oh, all Apps I tried are running fine, just Mapillary had missed a feature to select the 20MP camera mode.
After a short debug session with mapillary devs, I can use the Huawei Honor 7 fine now. Just the issue of far to few gigs of storage in device is a issue, 64GB is not really much if you do a 5MB picture every second, and I need to use 2 sim cards.
For others: issues with mapillary and Honor 7 are: no infinity focus mode available, need to set to automatic. This forced mapillary into 640x480 mode.
Also the 20MP mode of Honor 7 is NOT 4:3, it is 322:243 (5152x3888), which is a problem for apps selecting only 4:3 modes, and biggest 4:3 mode in Honor 7 is somewhat 3264x2448 (8MP) only. So you need to be able to choose non 4x3 modes in your app.

[ROOT] How to enable Sony's 4K video recording app

Xperia X Performance doesn't have 4K video recording app by default, but actually it's already in our system!
How to enable 4K video recording app (need root)
1. Root your X Performance (use my AndroPlus Kernel)
2. Delete following file: (yes it says Enable 4K, but actually disables 4K)
/system/vendor/overlay/SuperVideoCamera-Enable-4K-Overlay-275-release.apk
3. Reboot and now 4K video should be in camera app list.
If it doesn't, find Video -> 4K Video from activity launcher (use apps like Nova Launcher) and launch it.
Sample video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crtqsawJ2E0
I recorded 20 min but there was no overheat warning or app crash.
Tried to freeze it with Titanium but no luck.
Removed it, reboot, and there is 4k video plug-in in camera.
Thanks.
Actually you can just use Open Camera from Google APP Store instead of using Stock 4K Video recording APP which isn't present by default.
In this way, you can bypass the temperature protection as well.
Thanks! This works also with Xperia X (F5121). Temperature problem not detected until now. Should I have this problem, I will try to disable the overheat app in titanium backup...
Do this without root is quite simple. As Android 6.0 has added a feature to the package manager. Just use "pm hide $(package name)" to hide the package.
It just like pm disable but can use without root!
So just run "pm hide com.sonymobile.android.addoncamera.supervideo.product.res.overlay.enable4k"
then open Camera, switch to video. then tap the setting icon and choose "Full HD (60 fps)".
is it the same on nougat??
@AndroPlus is it the same procedure on Nougat?
it seems does not work on nougat.
Work on Nougat
works on N! awesome!

Sorry for my very, very, very basic question:
How do I run "pm hide com.sonymobile.android.addoncamera.supervideo.product.res.overlay.enable4k" ?
I often see these command boxes or basic scripts in a box within a forum post, but how do I do that on the phone? Is there a terminal app or command app that can be used, or do I use ADB on my PC with a USB cable? (I have never done this, but from searching I see something like that as a way to execute commands.)
My XP f8131 is not rooted and I am on Android 7, and I would prefer to do this from the phone itself rather than a PC, if possible.
Thanks in advance!

Only can use via ADB shell. But Android 7.0 has been changed the secure policy so this cannot be useful at all
I tried on x compact. 4k is available but camera closes if i choose 4k.
4k video recording is not functioning properly on my XXDual btw through the 4K Video app
I just picked up a Sony Xperia X Compact and was wondering if there's any updated workaround for 4K on Android 7.0
Thx
This works on my F8132 Nougat and after deleting the file, SafetyNet still passed.

Mine does not close on XC but instead shows an odd color blur on lower left corner when in 4K mode. Also when starting 4K recording the the video recording itself goes extremely dim and it's difficult to see what's being recorded. Palying back the video shows colors are all messed up. Almost inverted. It's difficult to explain without screenshots.
Also SteadyShot must be Off. Otherwise the screen freezes when trying to record 4K+SteadyShot active video and produces corrupted 3KB video file. H264 vs H265 option does not seem to make a difference.
Either way it's not usable. Thankfully it also does not seems to affect normal video recording so its problably safe to delete this APK to see what results you get.
EDIT: I'm on Marshmallow. X Compact. F5321_34.1.A.3.49_R4B
Stock ROM+Stock Kernel. Unlocked BL. Root active. BusyBox installed. SELinux=Permissive. DRM keys active via PoC: https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/poc-real-trim-instead-drm-fix-t3552893
Is there any other app that will offer a good quality 4k option without overheating or damaging the phone? Or is that to much to ask from this little device?

best camera app? [nougat]

Which camera apps are people using? Curious to also know what the latest version of Google Camera is that you found can work (fully) with our phone?
I managed to get 3.2 working (only 720p recording though).
Any recommendations are highly appreciated.
Hi. I'm using Google Camera 2.5.052
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-5-052-release/
latest fully working camera apk for nexus 4 Google Camera 2.7.008 (this version in apkmirror) panaroma and photo sphere and also so is working
if you don't want google camera maybe you like camera mx. camera mx is fully working too. (latest version in google play )

I have been testing out Camera zoom FX, it seems to have all the features that the N4 can use, but i don't like the way it handles HDR.
The thing is that Google Camera (at least the 3.2 version i have) is the quickest to open (<3 sec), which is something I care about.
Open Camera is also ok, while "perfectly clear" is complete **** (which i was very surprised about).
camera mx
sorry, maybe you try camera mx, I think is so good.

Does Nexus 4 support Camera 2 API to use HDR+? I doubt it but I ask just to be sure.

I never found a complete answer for this, but what i understood is that N4 does not go beyond LEGACY level for Camera 2 API. (other options being LIMITED and FULL).
This may be due to firmware issues, sensor limitation, or DSP/ISP.
So, max I think devs can do is make an app install on the N4 but none of the "extra" features will work (like manual controls, RAW images).
I did want to mention that there are apps out there that seem to "reproduce" some of the features of more modern cameras.
For example burst mode, or some exposure settings, even ISO. (e.g., Camera FV-5).
This is mainly why I asked this question here, to find out if there is a full feature packed app out there that N4 users prefer. Since most of these camera apps might have more features than the stock google cam one but the end results are crap...
Google Camera 4.1.006 seems to work fine if you have a ROM running 6.0+ (I think). I have encountered a few bugs though.

Latest Google Camera working on LineageOS 15.1 Android Pie
The Nexus 4 is a ARM device (arm-v7a). I tested Google Camera APKs from APKMirror on Nexus 4 running LineageOS 15.1 Android Pie. I had to manually uninstall the app between versions, otherwise the other versions refused to install.
Google Camera 4.2.035 doesn't work. Force closes on start up.
Google Camera 4.2.022 doesn't work. Force closes on start up.
Google Camera 4.1.006 works. Video @ 1080 causes app to crash. To work around this, go to settings and change video resolution to 720p.
Google Camera 3.2.045 works. To get past the tutorial, change to selfie camera. Video @ 1080 causes app to crash. To work around this, go to settings and change video resolution to 720p.
Overall v4.1.006 is the latest version that works on the Nexus 4.

Magisk Based GCAM Port, Google Lens Support, Slo-Mo, 60FPS Enabled

I have created a Magisk based DIY GCAM port for our 10's. Basically, it installs everything you need for it to work, and you try/select whatever GCAM you think works the best. All this will do is enable the extra features for GCAM
***SLOMO NOT WORKING ON OREO FOR ME***
Prerequisites:
2.xx.xxx.xx Nougat Stock sense, not sure about LOS or others (you can try, no guarantees).
3.xx.xxx.xx Oreo Stock sense, not sure about LOS or others (you can try, no guarantees).
Magisk 15.0 or newer (Uses 1500 template)
No Other GCAM installed (remove any prior to flashing magisk module)
REMEMBER TO SET ALL SETTINGS AND FC ONCE BEFORE USE!!!!!
What it does:
It replaces media_profiles.xml in system/etc : this allows for HEVC and 60fps
Oreo Version
It adds ARCore and ARStickers to system/app
It sets ro.config.calibration_cad=/system/etc/calibration_cad.xml
It adds res_ctrl.conf to system/etc
it updates all the various .xml files that have media settings within them
This is a free-for-all zip, meaning i dont care if you modify it, pass it off to other groups, help anybody else, etc.
I am not responsible if you get your phone messed up, it works for me, and for others. I will help as much as i can. Its a work in process, hopefully, it will make life easier for everybody. This is really close to being a DD, i will try other GCams as i find time. Im really waiting for Oreo on VZW, then ill really get into it. (AR Stickers, etc.)
Also, this is a HTC 10 thread, and while i dont mind helping people (I want everybody to have a working GCAM) this magisk module, especially the media_profiles.xml is very very very 10 specific. You can however, do the legwork, use this zip as a template, and make one for your threads/personal use as well. And i dont mind. Just dont come in here without a logcat with some phone that's not a 10 and say its broke. I will at least look at a logcat and help if its not a 10, but my demands have been expressed.
Also, for those with a 10.. Dont come in here and tell me its broke, not tell me anything relevant, have no logcat, and expect a fix...you will be meme flamed for my amusement...You have been warned. You should know better at this point!!!
Thanks

Changelog/Bugs:
DIY GCAM MODS: Everything but GCAM, Pick the one you like the best and use this mod to get the extras to work.
V31: Version back to 2 revs. 1: Skulshady V3.0, portrait works (6p or pixel 2017 zsl hdr +, that one has low light bug still), Tolyan009 v1.3.5, portrait doesnt work, more options (needs alot of configuration, pixel 2, 2017 pixel zsl hdr+ new, black level 64, hdr+ control on, turn off use google photos in debug settings)
V30: Oreo and Nougat: Added HEVC Back in, Removed Lens (Built into photos now), some people say slomo works in oreo now, you tell me Uses Arnova V7B6 Camera...too bad it's junk......
V28: Cleaned up media_profiles_vendor.xml and added HEVC support. (Slo-Mo at least loads the viewfinder now, getting warmer )
V24: Low Light/Flash Bugs fixed, increase sharpness might be better, still no slo-mo
V23: Same oreo bugs
v8 Nougat: Updated to arnova pixel2mod v6b14, probably the last good one
v8 Oreo: Initial release, has b14, and AR stickers, need someone to test it on oreo.
v7: 99.98% works, only "little" bug is if you take a low light/room is completely dark photo (front and rear), very rarely, but sometimes the camera app crashes.
v1: Initial release
Bugs: No front HDR, Slo-mo crashes went set to 240fps (120 is fine), can only take picture with hdr+ enhanced on for rear, view finder is a little slow for portrait mode rear.
V28: To ease confusion, 6P works with everything it appears, 2017 Pixel HDR ZSL has some issues in low/no light still (wanna help, PM @tsalta )
V24: Either works i believe
V23: I use nexus6P, you can use pixel 2 as well
v8: Use nexus 6P, it all works, you can use 2017 pixel zsl HDR+, but it will FC in dark/no light using flash.
How to modify the zip for your a new gcam:
1. uninstall gcam mod
2. reboot
3. Install gcam of your choosing
4. using root browser, copy directory from data/app containing google camera directory.
5. take the contents of that folder, copy the contents to the zip file, in system/app/GCAM, replace the contents in there.
6. reflash zip with new gcam
thank for share

Hello dude i see you are starting like you sayd befor im just wondering what version you used like a base?
Arnova 1.6 or maybe 1.2 ?
Just wondering
Thanks for the Share will test it now!
Edit: Yes 1.6 i guess or perhaps 1.7 but the feel is like more 1.6
Yes this is the most stable build with all the options that we can have the only one thing we gona miss is the Pixel 2017 HDR+ ZSL the ZSL works only with this presets and since the new versions it doesnt work anymore the last time was worked fine on V 1.2

well i can take pictures with HDR+ and HDR+ Enhchanced from the Back camera so it is working fine not bug.
Also the Front HDR+ is working what i mean is it is made to work only In portrait MOD so when you shoot Portrait with the Front and you have HDR+ portrait camera enabled will get the effect this is how the build is mean to work so you can remove this from the Bugs it is not actually a bug.

And also 60fps does not work

Arnova 1.7 beta 1
It will only take pics on hdr+ if it decides hdr should be used. If you turn hdr off, it won't work.
Yea, I'm aware of the work around for front hdr+. But you can't just have hdr+ on the front camera in normal mode. So it's a bug still until we find a better alternative camera that works.
You can be the tester @tsalta if you like. I explained how to put different GCAMS in the magisk zip, so you can find the perfect version.

Yes im planing to make one version same with 1.6 because 1.6 is more stable than 1.7 beta ad 1.7 in 1.6 will take pictures always with HDR+ or Enchanged whatever you want from the back camera.
and i think 1.6 is one idea faster no freeze slownes on the viewfinder
Los Ron (rr), HDR working, portrait mode too, but slow motion mode not
Thanks anyway)
@aer0zer0 i was planing to make another version but after alot of test the most stable build that work is 1.7 Beta 1 so thanks for the share.
I mean compared to the Other builds that have Portraid mode if not 1.2 is the most stable
Like ive sayd many times every build have some advantage and dissadvantages for example 1.2 is super fast and stable also has working Pixel config with ZSL in other hand do not have POrtrait
Well above 1.6 they have everything but the pixel config is not working and no ZSL at all.
Also i have some other builds that are Not Arnova diferent from different russian sites and i had the best Front + HDR+ mod and take amazing HQ selfies but only this is the advantage of the mod.
if we have somehow to make a mix like frankenstain from the mods we know who is best and work perfect to make One build that include all the things.
Thanks for the Magisk Module.

You have a 10, right? The only thing I can think of is media_profiles.xml is not in the right spot.

Yes it is media Profile xml i never ever had Slow Mo to work no matter of the presets in best case just freeze and i found out that this heppand only in Viper Magisk ROM people who are with Lee Droid v 4 have Slow Mo working so im pretty sure its ROM related and thats why i leave it thats way i get tired of trying to fix it and just waiting the OREO.
@tsalta have you tried older builds, like in the 1.4s I would sacrifice portrait mode for clean front and rear camera implementation. The 10 was my daily driver till I got a essential phone mid September. So I haven't messed with it much. Are the bsg versions any good?

You have to add Google's preset media configs to media_profiles.xml that's how it works. 240 fc, since the sensor can't handle it.

I have the google preset for the slow motion but same the viewfinder freezes imideately when i press slow motion.
Anyway in the Magisk version u provide you have media profile xml with the settings and is the same if you have another idea how to add this google media configs let me know or write me them here to chek what i have now to see if they differ.
About the Gcam Mods.
I tested all of them by all i mean even builds that are not even listen on XDA.
for me Arnova 1.2 is one of the best for us because its fast and all HW levels are added to support level 3 so we HTC 10 users and many other devices that have and can handle camera 2 api have HW level 3 support.
In the 1.2 Bold Red build from Arnova even the Pixel 2017 ZSL HDR+ preset work in all conditions i never had a single crash there shooting day and night, the only one downside is that there is no Portrait MODE.
Another info like i mentioned befor i had one Build if you wish will upload it that it has the Most amazing fron Shooter with HDR+ it is based on BSG build but edited by some Russian folk from 4pda i used this mod only because of the front facing camera a slefie is about 5 mb in size Crisp and clear like you shoot it with back camera.
Other than that one of my Favorite as well is the ArtZ based Mod that is Pixel based Version 2.
Have everything working ZSL all is set to use Pixel configs have a Portrait Mod working and so on.
The only problem with this build is like i explain several times befor shooting in the dark when there is not Object to focus the app force crash it is somthing related to the Focus plus the Flash it is like the Flashligh do not work properpy in synhron with the Focus and the HDR+
but for a day and good light photos i got the best pictures with this ArtZ MOD.

Try this out just set up the camera on 1st run for Max Quality and shoot with the Front Camera in Good Light condition.
If we have somehow to see what settings use this apk for the front to implement in the 1.7 regular front will be Awesome.

Gcam recomendations for V35

Are any v35 users using a gcam mod? If so, can you share which one and your experiences?
Well for 5-th branch hands down the best one is GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-18c1.apk and can be found here
Regarding 6-th latest Gcam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.7.190716.1800 by Arnova works flawlessly with this XML config.
On a project fi v35, the GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-18c1.apk was too laggy for me. I ran 01.MGC_6.1.021_G7_test_v1.apk and was able to snap pictures with front and rear, but the 02.MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_04.02.19.12.54.apk crashed on launch.
Will post a logcat once i can.
Have you properly applied the XML setting (step 8) after installing MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_04.02.19.12.54.apk?
Lag in viewfinder is cause by overloaded buffer in this version which is easily fixable either by applying XML as shown or by enabling the Buffer Fix switch in app Settings.
Nope, after installing the 02 apk, it crashes on launch so I don't get the chance. Tweaked settings w/ the other one and got it working at least, thanks!
You are welcome!
N.B.: If you want to have it working you need to follow the guide up to the letter, so whenever you get bored and want to try again just uninstall the current GCAM, restart your phone and start again.
Do not forgot to take again 2 pictures after installing 1st apk and to properly import the XML settings after installing the 2nd apk and starting it for the first time.

Same problem, I can't do step 8 because the camera crashes when trying to open.
I have LG V30+ H930DS, and I use this two Gcams.
One is 90% wokring (maybe panorama doesnt work) but all other is perfect (wide, noraml, portrait front/back, HDR+, SlowMotion) and its fast. (To chagne between lenses, just hold switch button, it will redirect to settings, after you close settings lense will be changed.
The other one I use only for NightSight. This camera has problem with selfies, they have green tint. It also have Wide/Normal switch, ( just chage between selfie and back camera, and each time ju go back to main camera it will be diferent lense)
I'm satisfied with this phone, for me everything is perfect, but i found LG V35 for good price and I would like to konw if there is somebody with V35 who will try this two Gcams, and tell me does they work properly, or if there is some others which works good, because i wouldn't change V30 for v35 if I can't have good working Gcam.

Thank you for the link. I downloaded, installed and restored the supplied config file for my V35.
Regarding Night Sight, is there a setting to change to fix the choppy motion when moving around the viewfinder?
No way for now on improving Night Sight viewfinder lag.

where is step 8 described? I can find no reference on how to apply this xml config.
Step 8 originates from really old installation guide.
Now you need only to install the camera apk and import the xml settings file.
Where/how to extract the xml file and how to import it afterwards you can check here

Thanks. I must have been downloading wrong version, since double clicking didn't work. Tried again this morning and it works now.
After applying the xml fix to v6.1 camera, it works, but I wouldn't call it "good". It's super annoyingly slow to make pictures. 5.2 also lags substantially, and won't load xml settings. So far, lg camera is hands down better
so... MGC_6.2.030_MI9SE_V4_plus2.apk has been the only version for me that has worked without issue...problem is pictures are not clear. although the viewfinder is fixed with the buffer fix toggle, when taking photos its not quick therefore the pictures blur slightly.
do you all encounter the same and if not which version and configuration has given you a fast shutter?
Here is what I posted on arnova's thread with the suggestion of another member.

thanks...i Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_BF_V2.2.1.190822.1145.apk works for my V35 as it seems BF means it has the buffer fix built in. shame it doesn't allow for zero shutter lag as for phones that don't need a buffer fix. as the OEM camera can take photos super fast.
here are my settings for my LG V35 on Pie on Gcam_6.2.030_Advanced_BF_V2.2.1.190822.1145.apk
back camera: Pixel 3 XL
front camera: Nexus 6P
AWBGains Mod: OFF, was causing GREEN photos with it on
RAW FORMAT: RAW_SENSOR
Image Format: JPEG (if i set YUV_420_488 GCam crashes)
P3 wide-color, Wide Color gamut
playing around with Custom Lib Repo by cstark and with Eszdman v2.6 beta 2
image quality is awesome, and no blur upon shutter snap as with other GCams! Thanks @arnova!

Hey everyone, I'm currently exploring some gcam options and I found that the latest Arnova Gcam works great with no lag (it does take a bit longer to capture a photo than it does on my sd820 device) but sadly it doesn't offer wide camera mode.
Now, there is the cstark camera and wide angle mode actually does work, but using the camera is impossible because the preview (you know, the thing you see on your screen before you take a picture) changes once every 5 seconds or something. I tried importing some xmls and that sped it up just a bit but not by much.
Is there some working version that was tested for v35? My v35 is Korean model

I get terrible stutter on the night site with this 6-th and the config file. Any fixes?
You need to be on Pie and you can use Gcam_6.2.030 with working Night Sight without lag.
