Do you think that the 4k record on mate 10 will be improved by software updates (like what op did with op5's camera)? Actually the stabilization is terrible and it also seems to have problem with focus...
I think OIS is bad in Mates, compared to other phone I have seen on YouTube.

That's why I'm still not sure if i get mate 10 or pixel 2,the video is bad on mate series compared to other phones.
Right now I'm also not sure if i get mate 10 ,the video is bad on mate series compared to other phones. If anyone have any information please share us.
I don't think the video is bad. I think the OIS is not that good but hopefully that can be fixed in a software update. Who knows.

You said "not that good".. do you mean not that good when recording 4k videos ? As far as I undertand Mate 10 has digital video stablization only @1080P/30fps and not in 4K.
Hello everyone, I recently unlocked the bootloader of my Asus Zenfone Max Pro and installed Magisk to root the phone. All of this was done for just thing - Trying out the Google Camera as I do feel that the Stock Camera app is pathetic and that's the major reason why the Zenfone Max is not performing that great. For Google Camera to work, After you have rooted your phone, download this app called 'build.prop editor'. After it is downloaded search for 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled' The value would be 0 by default, Change it to 1 and then reboot your phone. Now install the Google Camera apk(Whichever you feel like, I'm attaching the one that I keep using) and you're good to go. Everything including HDR+, Front And Back portrait Mode, Video Stabilisation works.
Here is the complete video review along with Comparisons with the Redmi Note 5 Pro On Google Camera.
Thanks....google cam is definitely better.
How to root Zenfone max peo

Wow man that looks far better!

hey brother, first big thanks to you for doing this.
yesterday i just ordered 3gb version of this and glad to find your google camera app review. i earlier saw your videos with max pro m1. i like the way you reviewed it, like a daily usage user unlike others who do monotonous review which gives the feel that the person did not even use it.
https://www.gsmarena.com/asus_zenfone_max_pro_(m1)_zb601kl-9173.php
Anyways, my query is regarding google camera app on max pro m1 ?
1) In the specs, its given that phone supports 1080p/60fps recording. During its announcement it was mentioned that such feature will come ? Could you please check whether google camera app provides the same ?
2) And in the video you have mentioned with google camera app, support for EIS comes in ? Could you please elaborate more on that.
And part from this, please give your general view with new updates how much is the Fingerprint sensor and Faceunlock is making life better or worse as most says because of its slow speed?
Cheers,
Arnold
Any apk for unrooted device? All can't root the device, as it has risk of making phone dead.
What happens to the Battery life and futures OTA updates !?
Thanks for the post
Indeed am looking forward to root my asus max pro m1 and install google camera
But Need to know how it affects the battery life and Future OTA updates that the Phone is likely to receive.
Looking forward for an answer !
Cheers and Peace!

It doesn't affect the battery life and apparently OTA Updates will work with Redwolf Recovery. I haven't tested it since there is no new update to test with

I haven't found anything for unrooted phones. Rooting won't make your phone dead. There are ample amount of guides here on xda which are very simple.

I couldn't see 60fps option but I will try some other google camera apk and reverify. About EIS, yes it works with Google Camera. Sometimes you get some artifacts on the left/right edge but overall the footage seems a lot smoother. I still find fingerprint sensor to be slower and face unlock is a hit or miss. I'd say it works 70% of the times. Struggles sometimes in indoor or dim lighting conditions.
i just use Oneplus Camera, i think its still better than Google Camera. Go find it at apkmirror.

No, it was a blog that mistook beta B108 for the release.
So not yet unless you are a beta tester.

I couldn't possibly know this.
But there are a few things that might cause it:
You are not on the latest build.
Huawei ID email/account is not of the same region you try to sign up to.
Your country doesn't have beta.
You have rebranded.
These are the ones I suppose would cause trouble.

Hi,
If I forgot to answer you, I'm sorry.
I think this is a beta of PIE 9, but it has exceptional new options.
Greeting.
Slobodan
Good day,
9.0.0.108 (C432E4R1P8log).
Are we all on this version?
It would be good to share experiences.
First experience:
surfed for almost 1 hour, recorded clips and recordings, played music, started new crazy options, loaded with the site, played mobile on smart TV via the "smart board" option, adjusted the options. spent about 5 hours almost without interruption. The battery ran out from 100% to 78%, while nothing was out of the question.
-the "smart board" option gives you all the content of your mobile on TV and work your fingertips on the screen on TV, from e-mail, viewing clips to playing,
- the option for a "wallet" is relaxed, but in Serbia,
the screen of the mobile station is a smart board,
4K video recording,
in 720 resolution, the video clips can be slowed from 120 fps to 960 fps. Perfect.
Some strange things,
the Wifi signal is continuously plugged in and I can not touch it by touching it,
In the label it says that the battery is 100% and in the settings there is actual consumption, discrepancy or what.
Mobile does not heat up while the camera is working.
They were a bit trickier with notifications when using melody and tuning.
Hi guys,
I tried two A3 phones with September update on it and what I've noticed was the slow camera, when you click to capture the photo there is +/- 1 sec delay.
I've also switched off HDR and AI but was still the same.
My Redmi Note 4 and Samsung S8 takes photos immediately.
Did you experience it or is it fixed already?
yes there is lag in official camera app, use gcam 7, zero lag and better quality

Check latest pages of the GCAM thread. There are plenty working, but it takes like 1 min to take the picture with astrophotography mode.
Slow motion is not working with MGC_7.2.014_MiIXSE.RPII.MiVIII_V.apk . It exits immediately.

Yeah, after I posted I've read more about it and that's true. So I guess sanity's version is working fine. Gonna see if I cantest tonight. I know that it is working because I was trying to take a photo at the beach at night and after the timer I checked my phone and it was still processing :lol:
Check the attachment to see what happened to that photo that I've moved while it was still processing.

I will share my favorites as well:
I prefer MGC_7.3.020_Parrot043_V7 and everything works flawlessly.
I have been using the Parrot builds for several months and its consistently great. The Poco doesn't have OIS, the Mi8 has a smaller 1.8 aperture, ( vs 2.0) The Mi8 has a dual LED flash, and a wider range of abilities with video recording. So with this mind, the Parrot builds officially support the Mi8, while Poco builds are obviously designed specifically for the Poco and they often omit functions that the mi8 can use.
I also like the On Fire builds ( made for Poco but keeps all options available for other phones.) and I also like GCam_7.0.009_MiIXSE.RPII.MiVIII_V1
I recommend using the Parrot's 7.0.009 final goodbye version with my settings.

Thanks for sharing, do you use any particular setting for best results, I'm testing the version you shared and I was just wondering how to set up best for our MI8.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Slds,
any config files required or recommended?
Hi @QxiG, thread is being closed as an existing GCam thread already exists. Having multiple threads for the one mod is not productive. Kindly continue the discussion in the following thread:
