I asked Arnova8G2 to port GCam to our device... - Moto X4 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Here was his answer
Can anyone tell me his requirements?
That will be great for device?

for this we need to install latest arnova Gcam port, without any modifications from others.
logcat you can get from adb shell and camera2api log from a app called "Camera2 inspect".
Tomorrow ill post my info here w/ the latest arnova Port.
Sent from my Moto X4 using XDA Labs

Try this instead:
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Connect your phone on PC;
Start a command line on PC (administrator);
Go to the folder of platform-tools in command line;
Run adb (something like: adb logcat -v long > camera.txt);
Run camera in phone;
Crash app;
Ctrl+c in command line;
Get camera.txt and be happy.

Well...I wasn't able to run a simple command line as written (access is denied). However, using shell, I was able to get something with Camera and closing it but I am not sure if it is helpful.
1. See attached (probably a lot more information than required)
2. How do I run this from the command prompt?
3. How would I crash the app on purpose?
(Edit - Attachment Removed because it was the Moto app)

If app doesn't crash, you don't need logcat...

Ok, so I followed the directions better. The latest version of Arnova's camera will not crash! Nevertheless, here is a logcat capture that I finally CTRL-C'd out of.

So I played around with the Gcam app and I think the following needs to be added to the X4 port:
- Wide Angle Lens
- Selfie Flashlight (vice the white screen)
- Ability to choose storage location (Pixels don't have external SD cards like we do)

Selfie flash light works if you turn off hdr+

The flash can be turned on on selfie without hdr, and BGS managed to use the wide lense, but you need an unlocked bootloader.
That being said, it would be great to have all that in a single port and with more ease of access
