Best GCam port? - LG V30 Questions & Answers

I've found that Gcam ports are giving me far superior photos to auto mode on the stock camera app. Just wondering if anyone has messed around with various GCam ports and found one that works best? I'm currently using Arnova's latest port with HDR config set to "pixel 2017 ZSL HDR+" and model set to "pixel 2".

Does the Arnova build you're using use both rear cameras? What build are you using exactly?
I'm using GoogleCamera_5.2.025-Final_fu24-17.apk

The discussion has moved on since the post you quoted from over a year ago.
Here's two suggestions from people who know what they are doing:

....... Seriously?!?! You learn something new every day.. I must have overlooked the bit in fu24's thread about long-pressing the camera switch icon to switch between main and aux lenses Well THAT makes things faster

yes i saw. i just thought that you recommend to try both versions and decide.
but as this is a QA, a have other questions if you guys dont mind...
is there a cam app that has
1. extended resolutions for example 1440p/60, or 4K with stabilization? are those even possible?
2. ~480p resolution for low video size if you just need to document something?
3. boosted low light video, even if its low res/noisy - if you need to shoot in very dark and need to have at least something on the video.
hey, thx. :highfive:

I think the first link may be to the post where other versions are described. There is an attachment which is a fix and may have to be flashed. Anyway just use the APK.

Can anyone test if HDR+ mode works with google camera? (need rooted users)

It doesn't work on stock G5. But maybe if you changed build.prop to ro.product.model=Nexus 5X it would work? I need some beta testers.
Here's link to google camera apk: Link
Yeah I would love to see HDR+ on the G5 as well!

I wonder if we need something more than just Camera Api2 for it to work, maybe there are some hardware requirements. I tried googling, but it didn't give me any results. But now that other people had success with making assistant and other things to work on different hardware than it was released for by editing build.prop, maybe we can do the same with the camera. I'm just not ready to unlock the bootloader yet.

Just tried what you asked, still no option for HDR+. Maybe something else is needed to make it work

Well I've researched a little and it seems that some libs are needed to make it work, but I haven't been able to find which one,I did a few tests,used the one I've found,but no luck,even tried to activate it modifying the apk,but again no luck. So that is why I think that some libs are needed
Oh, then we probably should try to get more developers/testers and then maybe we can achieve something, maybe some mod that would make HDR+ work on more devices.
What do you know about these libraries, are they device specific or could we just easily port them to G5?

I don't know much, but there is some talk about it on forum, just search XDA forum for HDR+ and you'll see that the libs are mentioned

[ROM][X820] LeECO Le2_X820_MAX_5.9.020S by Cuoco92

Friends, I have found this ROM in another forum, and want to share with you, i have tested the previous version, but some days ago he released a new version on his 20s, and it seems really great.
Is totally EUI, Stock Launcher, PreRooted, No China Apps, very smooth and perfect for daily use.
Roaming Works, BT, Wifi, Data, Camera, SloMo, Pano...
I have not found a bug until now.
Give a try.

Sure, but this is ROM, Development.... section, so I would say that "this Thread" was posted in the wrong section. If Cuocuo92 does not work on this forum, this doesn't mean that his ROM should stay in the News, Discussion area.
To make the story short, it would be best if someone would maintain it here with download links and all.

It's easy, stop that thread and continue this one. It's a little bit logical to keep the thread in ROM section.
Did anyone of you tested the last release? How is your battery ?
Very good rom, but it I changed to Hungarian language, than everything is English
It could be beautiful but turkish language is not enough...
Not flash
when i install the latest version i still have the 2 chinese desktop pages on the left, what am i doing wrong?
Is normal. You can hide them easily. Keep pressed any part in the main screen and then you will find an eye over theat pages, with that you hide them.

when i first start cuoco, it asks me for feedback permission, isn't that related to this pages? can't i turn them off completely?

But you can hidden them as I told you
Thanks for sharing this rom.
Is there anyone who could find the way to install Xposed with this rom?

Is anyone using Cuoco92's ROM on x829? If yes:
1. Which version of Cuoco92's rom are you using?
2. Is Fingerprint Scanner working for you?
3. Is LTE working for you? If you live in the US, who is your carrier?
4. Do you have any bugs/issues on Cuoco92's rom?
My LeEco Le Max 2 x829 is scheduled to be delivered next week. I've read good reviews about Cuoco92's rom so I'm planning to flash it when I get my phone but wanted to get some feedback first.

Redmi Note 4 MTK Camera alternative?

Hi guys, I was wondering if there is any Camera mod for the nikel version? Like motog for mido or something like that? Camera is very laggy while taking shots and I think it's a software problem. Any recommendations?
Thank you :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Dude, it's not available for the mediatek version of the phone -.-'
. Meh fair enough. Just trying to help since no one else bothered to answer your question.
Google it next time : https://www.reddit.com/r/chinaphones/comments/765olg/best_camera_aplication_for_mediatek_phones/
Took me like 10 seconds to find that link
WOW you're so smart! I found that link ages ago, not the thing I'm looking for. Thanks, I guess
You know what. This is why I don't bothering trying to help people in the Q&A section. Figured it out yourself. Next time get a phone with a decent cpu and not a rubbish mediatek one. Jerk.

Ok never did you say you attempted to search yourself. How am I supposed to know what you've done that before you posted this question?
I gave you the best answer to your question I could find. Saying how long it took for me to find that particular reddit post isn't a measurement of my intelligence. You simply decided to come to that conclusion yourself and be sarcastic about it.
Next time why don't you put more detail in what research you've done already when you post a question. Would have saved my time and yours.
Regardless you still should have invested in the much superior Snapdragon model. I did my research and know getting the mediatek model would cause issues down the line.
Since that reddit post was about the only useful thing I could find (I took a look at some others, frankly I wish I hadn't now), I suggest you try what's suggested in there. As said in the post all of them are the same more or less as they use the same API.
Don't be a troll.

[Q] RAW Support

Hello, my dear friends, after my Xperia Z and 6 years of usage I am back with the xz1. I am also very disappointed with the Raw support and Camera 2 api that we cannot even use google camera app and its portrait mod and etc but I am quite happy with the camera for now. I've contacted Sony for this RAW and Camera 2 api support a few days ago saying these:
"Unfortunately even 200 euro phones are passing us and they give better results with their camera After using Sony from the Sony Ericson K750 times to now, and lately I have been using Xperia Z for 6 years, however, xz1 and the 400 euros was the biggest disappointment for me. For past 2 years, almost every smartphone supports Camera 2 API and they have portrait mod, Raw support and HDR functions with the Google Camera app. But where we are as Sony? Our own camera software is not capable to respond and compete with the market! Please make an update by making Camera 2 API available for Xperia users. No Camera 2 Api, No portrait mode, No updates for Background defocus, No Raw support, and what do we have as better than the others? Very very disappointed"
AND I HAVE GOT A REPLY:
"Thank you for contacting Xperia Support by Sony.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.
With regards to your inquiry, we would like to inform you that Android 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 7.0, 7.1 and 8.0 support the new camera features via android.hardware.camera2, and Google defines three modes for the new camera features:
Legacy mode (no support RAW capture)
2. Limited mode (optional capability for RAW capture)
Full mode (optional capability for RAW capture)
Currently, Xperia devices support the Legacy mode, which incorporates features and functionality in addition to our already renowned camera experience. We are always monitoring our customers' expectations, and as for taking photos in RAW format we will consider this for the future.
We would like to thank you for your remarks and inform you that we are always at your disposal for any further assistance in the future."
I would like to hear your opinions and thoughts on this topic.
And I don't know exactly if I am posting the thread in the right section (forgive me if I am not).
Thanks
