I am starting a bounty for a Camera Mod for the stock camera app of the S8(+) [should be at least for the units with Samsung sensor, also at the moment Exynos only-G950F\G955F, because Snapdragon doesn't even have root].
Requirements for receiving the Bounty: basically what @zeroprobe did with the s7 but for our s8(+). https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/zero-camera-mod-v1-0-increased-bitrates-t3439870
SO:
-Increased Bitrates for ALL Video Modes
-Increased JPG quality for single and burst shots. (to 100%)
-other features are welcomed but not necessary for the bounty.
-multiple flashable Zips with increasing Video Bitrates: 20% increase, 50% increase and 100% (double original bitrate)
OR
-an App (.apk) that lets each user choose exactly what settings you want, like that which zeroprobe did: https://play.google.com/store/apps/....camera_mod_samsung_s7_bitrate_settings&hl=en
NOTE: the developer should own a working s8 or s8+ because developing for a phone one does not have is dangerous.
DEADLINE FOR BOUNTY IS: 22th June (22.06.17) After that I will personally not care for this anymore so my personal donation will expire; if the rest of the donors will still want it then you clear that through PM because this thread will probably be deleted.
UPDATE 5th June : In the last few days, many people have expressed the wish (and contributed to the bounty) to also get the HDR+ mode of Google Pixel on the S8(+)...Personally I am not interested in this feature, so it won't be a requirement for MY donation (and Highspeed's). I will always write next to the donation amount if that specific user wants the HDR+ mode or not. So the Total Donation amount only tells half the truth..Read the Donor List!
For USERS\DONORS:
Please do not PM me for donations- Post in the thread and I will update a couple times a day to make sure your donation is added to the total.
Minimum donation amount per person: 5$\5€
Maximum donation amount per person:100$\100€
For the Bounty-hunter\Developer:
To claim the bounty:
Post photos/screenshots or youtube video with details, and step-by-step instructions.
Wait for validation/confirmation from other users.
Claim your bounty by PM from the donor list below

Hello??
is there anyway I can pay xdadevelopers to keep this thread on the first page? this thread is dying before it could even get started..:crying::crying: and compared to other posts this is actually promoting\encouraging\supporting development, not just posting that: I dropped my phone and now it's cracked (big surprise) or what is on my homescreen etc.. such trivial things.
or I'll just have to bump it myself everyday..

I'm in for £10. Would love to see this happen. Must be someone here that's capable and willing to do it.

thank you! added you to the list!
There are enough smart developers out there, and from what I understand from zeroprobe this is not THAT hard to do..I would do it, but for some reason I can't even recompile an .Apk on my Pc properly (drivers? win10?).
This Mod would be, next to the TWRP recovery, the Stereo Mod, and the remapping of the Bixby button without an App (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/root-remap-bixby-button-o-app-t3601061) the next most USEFUL Mod for our devices (s8 and s8+)..:good::fingers-crossed:

---

It's also a matter of time..I am sure that eventually, in 1 or 2 years someone will do this mod for free, with no bounty or anything like that, but I am trying to bring this mod to the community(and to me) a lot sooner than that.. Because in 1-2 years the s8 will only be worth less than half it is now, it is unfair that those who bought it now for 900$ should have a phone that is not working at it's full potential for so long.. only getting the most out of it right before they switch to the next generation..

I ported the Zero Camera Mod into the S8+ Camera already whilst working on a port of it for the S7.
Give me a little while to compile up an APK for you all

---

Give this a try and tell me if it works or not. I've taken these from my S8 ported camera to S7.
Check it out on my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3616406

If it does I'll release it on its own thread.

To be a little bit more clear this is what I done:
- Decompiled the SamsungCamera6 (S7) + SamsungCamera7 (S8+)
- Compared the mods from SamsungCamera6 to the clean decompile for reference
- Added the necessary changes to SamsungCamera7
So in theory it should work.

Photos are still about 3MB and video bitrate is still the same. (1080p 30fps)

@djb77 my personal opinion. I think it's better for you to change the settings inside the new S8 app. Than just porting one. Because maybe the names etc is different.

Have you checked the camera settings to enable higher quality?
