Hi all,
I have a Redmi Note 4 MTK (codename Nikel) running on MIUI 9, but for some reason still on Android 6.0 Marshmallow. I've been looking for a better camera app for my phone as it has a Samsung S5K3L8 sensor which is known to be just ok but Xiaomi's software makes it even worse.
I've tried the Google Camera from this page:
https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-customization-raw-support/
On that page, it is written that: "As far as we can tell, this camera port relies on the Hexagon 680 DSP on a Snapdragon SoC for image processing, which is why this port does not work on other SoCs such as Kirin, Exynos, and MediaTek. The port still works on Xiaomi devices, especially the Xiaomi Mi5s which the port was originally targeted towards. Regardless of the SoC in your Xiaomi phone, give it a try and let us know how it goes!"
When installing the APK provided from that page, I face the first error, which is failed to parse file. I believe it is because the apk is made for Android 7.0 and I'm only running on Android 6.0.
I've tried an older version of Google Camera from APKMirror, made for Android 6.0 which works ok, but occasionally fails to connect to the camera, video mode and auto exposure doesn't work and manual exposure would only work in bright conditions for some reason.
I would appreciate any feedback and suggestions! Thanks!

Gcam v2.7.008 works 100% on RN4 mtk nikel
I have tried and tested, working 100% on my RN4 mtk w 9.5.3.0 global stable rom (not root).
The 'depth of field' effect works on both front and rear cameras.
It's an older version 2.7.008 but it works. https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-7-008-release/
Selfie with front camera, and a photo of my son using the rear camera. Both taken in the car, during day time.

Hey guys, title says all. And I know I asked this question on Pocophone F1 forums because I know alot of you guys came from Redmi Note 5.
I've been doing some research and seeing some comparison vids, but I haven't really found the information I was looking for, because most camera comparison vids are comparing the two phones both running on MIUI Cam only, or MIUI Cam vs Google Cam but they use THE SAME phone.
I know Redmi Note 5 AI works much better with MIUI Cam than GCam because I own the phone myself, the phone tends to crash on front facing camera and alot of features don't work.
So I was wondering what would have the better photo/video quality if Redmi Note 5 AI was using MIUI and Pocophone F1 was using Google Camera.
And one more question, if Google Camera on Pocophone is fully working or doesn't have bugs.
Thanks!

Good morning.
I'm going to buy one smartphone between Mi 8 and Redmi note 7. I'm looking for the best one with gcam.
I have two questions for you:
1) Which smartphone gives the best performances and the best quality of pictures with gcam?
2) Is it usually possible to use Mi8's OIS with gcam? Are there any gcam version letting use OIS with Mi 8 or is OIS always unabled from all gcam versions?
Can anyone help me?
This GCam version seems to work but with few glitches
