Marshmallow samsung launcher for mate 8 - Mate 8 General

Please port the marshmallow launcher of samsung for our mate 8.

Okay, took me a little while but managed to fully reverse engineer the Samsung framework to be compatible with the Mate 8.
You also have the option to use the S7-camera app to have much better photo and video capabilities in low light situations.
Download here, flash in TWRP: http://bit.ly/29h1UFz

LOL, ure kidding right? @Pfeffernuss

Using Google Camera 4.2.035.141213305 on Oxygen OS 4.0(N) OTA

I was hoping for improved camera software with the new Oxygen OS 4.0(N) OTA release. To my chagrin there seemed to be no improvements made, so as an alternative I downloaded and installed Google Camera 4.2.035.141213305 (arm64 version for Android 7.1+)
Get it by clicking on the link below:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...amera-4-2-035-141213305-android-apk-download/
The Google camera app AI appears to be better at determining optimal settings on the fly. The in app photo sphere, panorama, and lens blur features are nice additions too.
I found that if you have the time to make HQ, HDR, and manual mode adjustments, you can still get better pictures with the stock Oneplus version 1.4.0 camera app than the Google Camera app. but most users simply want to point and shoot.
When I give my 3T to a novice to take a picture, or when I need to to take a quick picture in a pinch, I find the Google Camera app takes better photos.
The app works beautifully, aside from the fact I can't get it to open using the button shortcuts after setting it as the default camera app.
Download the Google Camera 4.2.035.141213305 (arm64 version for Android 7.1+) app, and tell me what you think.
If you encounter button launch problem too, let me know, or come up with a solution.
When I try to install on my OP3T with OS 4.0 I get an error stating there was a problem parsing package. Installed Google Camera 4.1 without issue though.

Only tried with double tap to the power button and it works. Still rather sad though because no Auto-HDR+ like I was hoping. Still adjusting to the non-nexus life since my Nexus 5x bricked. (^_^)
How were you able to launch 4.2 ?it requires android 7.1 ! (we only have 7.0)
use this
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...06-126161292-2-android-apk-download/download/
You can unpack an APK file change the min version required and repack and install the APK. Although, I'm assuming that the min version requires 7.1 for a valid reason such as a required framework/library or something...
or here for 4.2 version 7.0

But yeah HDR+ doesn't work on the Google camera.

It's such a shame, the camera lets this phone down quite a bit. Good HDR would help a lot.

Google Camera 4.2.035.141213305 is working, but the spherical photo shoots without focusing.
I like using the double-tap power button to start the camera. Did anyone get the Google camera to open this way? Which version is recommended for OOS 4.1?
The google camera doesn't even have an option to mirror images taken with the selfie cam

Google Camera HDR+ function can be activated on Mate 9's?

Recently seen that for the latest 8** series Snapdragon SOC driven devices the HDR+ function on Google Camera was made functional on most of devices. The results in comparison to their original camera seems day and night from all points of view especially in low-light situations. As we now this seems to be Achilles heel for the Mate 9 and maybe the biggest reason that most of us lookup for other devices.
As I am no expert, I wonder if this function can be made functional on Kirin chipsets!? I want to take this opportunity to pull the alarm for the developers' and for the skillful members of this forum.
If successful most likely most of us won't look that soon for the planned new launches like: Note 8, V30, maybe even the next Mate.
You can do it yourself you know. Just shoot several raw images and combine them into one in post. Not as quick as HDR+ but it works!

That thing already know, but regardless of how hard you try (any app or setup) you cannot achieve results that good. Plus google camera's exposure is much better. Please check this thing yourself if you don't believe me.
does google camera even work on mate 9?

Yes. But not the most recent ones. The ones for 7.0 work.
True HDR uses three different images that you then assemble in a photo editing suite of your choice. The 'HDR' function in any phone is not a true HDR and just a computer algorithm that blends three exposures. Since the Mate 9 shoots raw, most will just do it the 'real' way Would be neat to see this function in the Mate 9 for us lazy folks(yes I am lazy and yes I am a professional photographer)
Ok, so no interest in this direction, nobody keen on improving the camera.
Not what I was saying at all. If we can improve the camera and keep all the functions built into it by Huawei, I would be first in line to sign up. Hell, I bought this phone specifically because of the camera. It is a wonderful performer that I have not even begun to stretch to the limits yet, but I have only had the phone for 3 days or so. I look forward to an improved camera, but only without the loss of functionality

No, I didn't do anything special. But pay attention: there are two different APKs. One of them is for Qualcomm CPUs. Download the one in the first link. This one.
Hey guys, I've tried the other one I think and crashed the camera driver had to reboot! Lemmie try this one! Thanks kermex
Edit: Nope! I open once, then can't open again :/ Oh well... Another curious thing is that it only detects the 12MB RGB Sensor... These sensores have so much potential, hope Huawei will get into the Camera Software deeper...
So now it works, change hw level to legacy.
Comparing histograms using 2 pictures, one is stock HDR and the other is using the Google Camera HDR+, I can conclude that HDR+ isn't working, can't see any improvements regarding dynamic range. What do you guys think?

The only thing I changed was the option to save as RAW. Nothing else.
will test it with several set-ups to see if any improvement comes from the HDR+ function.

Arnova8G2's Google Camera Port
Hi everyone, this thread is being created to share and have some feedback to help @Arnova8G2 to port the Google Camera for our soc.
I will try to maintain the thread with the latest apk from the dev, in the meantime to help more you can:
Describe your experience (mostly what doesn't work as expected)
Provide logcats: the dev does not have your phone, so logs are needed if you want him to fix stuff (How to take logcats?)
Mention @Arnova8G2 when you post your feedback
GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V6-Beta17.1.apk
Tried a couple of shots with the apk and pictures tend to have a blueish tone, as for pictures attached @Arnova8G2
The "normal" one is taken with stock camera with the 12mpx sensor, as the other one is not recognised by your GCam's port

Here you go. Honor 9 STF-L09.
I just needed to change the extension form .html to .txt to be able to attach it.
Working well on my Honor 9 with Oreo running. Thank you
@Arnova8G2 to standardise the responses and bug reporting from other users, which settings you suggest us Honor 9 users to use?
The same defaults as Snapdragon users?
Or some others in particular, given the different soc (if it can impact on image elaboration by the app)?
Is it supports portrait mode?
Hi @Arnova8G2, sorry to bother you but since you haven't posted a new apk for us Kirin users, I'm going to ask: can we use your latest updates from HERE?
Should we try first with the suggested settings and then with others or can you give us some hints?
Thanks in advance and don't worry to ask to try something, we are here to try to have a GCam for Kirins too (at least I to see if can be more improvements with the camera )

Count me in. If needed, I can also provide any help possible, because I would like to use GCam on Honor 9, as that HDR function is great
None of this app are working. Honor 9 with oreo.
I got always this error to free up space.
Please Port it for Honor View10- Honor's Latest Flagship. There are many users who want this port and many guys are into development stuff as they brought it due to the fact that it does support treble.
Btw Google released its algorithm as open source, will this benefit Kirin users?

There's a snapdragon version link in the first post here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9-plus/themes/gcam-port-galaxy-s9-s9-t3763849
I've tried it on my Note 9 snapdragon version and it works for the front and back camera, but portrait mode doesn't work on either front or back (freezes up). It does seem quicker than the Gcam mod I had on my S8+, but that could be the snapdragon processor and 8gb or RAM I have...
It's also unstable as I tried to adjust one setting (re-enabling camera shutter sound) and it totally crashed the app and I had to uninstall and re-install, so best not to play with any settings on this version

Are Gcam Ports always that slow to take the pic/process?? First Samsung since Note 4 so all new to me.... have had pixel and 2xl the last 2 years so i see how fast they do it just wondering if it gets better or not

Portrait mode does work - with a very slight lag but not the huge lag it used to have on my S9 Plus. As for which version - I flashed the one that was for the S9+ - (i don't recall the exact lable or even the link - I got there thru the link earlier in this thread from the person who first stated they had installed and got it working on the Note 9. it is important to download the setup screen shots and be sure to get settings setup exactly like those screen shots show.

A developer IDan is working on a Google Camera port for exynos version for the S9 and Note9. Currently using his latest V0.4 and HDR+ on back camera works good, everyone should try it and you guys should know hes just starting, so in time everything should be working.
Also any donations to him are welcomed.
Details are richer and colors are more natural compared to stock photos.

If you could find the settings screenshot that would be great. I couldn't find them and the gcam on my Note 9 is unstable and some do portrait...
Guys, im not sure if you realize, Gcam wouldnt take advantage of the second camera for low light capability. I've tested via HDR and the noise was just too much. Comparing to Samsung which could produce a good low light picture without much noises generated.

Google Cam ports

Anyone tested out any gcam ports?
I've just tried one (from the Mi 8 xda forums link below, via telegram) and initial tests show photos and night sight works! Not tested it thoroughly yet though, such as video etc
It's this one:

Hi cd993,
what for a miui version runs your Mi9 out of the box? is it on stable channel? Is camera api2 enabled as default in miui9 stable yet?
can you please test if HDR+ is working and can you confirm the port uses the primary (48mpix) lens for photos or does it use another from the three lenses?
I hope i get my Mi9 tomorrow, then i'll do a big photo comparison between Mi9 camera vs. my Mate 20 pro and my grilfriends Mi8 (with google port).
Can't wait to unlock the phone and hope a pixel experience port will arrive soon
Thanks

Hey,
OK see attached my miui version.
HDR+ appears to work, it takes that little bit longer to process, though not tested thoroughly. The photo was 12mp so presumably just the standard lens
Thanks fotr the info.
Its the stable channel version, lets look how the beta version is ... after 300hours ...
Can you test the camera setup again? 12mpix can be correct even if its shoot with the primary 48mpix sensor because the sensor uses "pixel binning", these combines four to one pixel to increase sharphness and lightning. Maybe the pixelbinning were just applied in the sensor itself. Its easy to test which lense the port uses. open the google cam port and cover the lenses with a finger, if you look at the viewfinder. when you cover the lens at the top and the "viewfinder is covered" then the primary lens (48mpix) sensor is used.
Thanks

Yes, but i can finalize the comparison even after March 16th, due to traveling.
I've done a comparison between Mi8 and P20pro last year but Mi8 was shooting without Google Cam port, because the port wasnt availible at this time.

Pics are too softened by night with normal camera. And with night mode they are catastrophic too much artificial sharpening.

Yes, but the photo is only 12mpx, also in Raw mode.
Much better to use Arnova latest version. Since mi 9 supports c2api level 3 can utilize the aux camera feature for telephoto.

Hmm just tried this one and selected the Add Aux Switch, but can't seem to see one being added anywhere?

Tap on the swap camera icon, it uses telephoto after switching to front cam
Ah thanks yes I see now.
Is there a way to use the wide angle? Perhaps not yet but will love it if/when we can
I made a comparison between Huawei Mate 20 Pro and Xiaomi Mi 9.

I'll gradually add more photos.
See the watermark to differentiate the phones.
Images without watermark were captured with the Google Pixel Port (in the dark with Nightsight)
Images were captured via point and shoot, both "AI" Features are enabled. Google Pixel with HDR+
Can somebody link a scam that works directly with the mi9? Is it possible to take photos in 16/9? 12 mo lens I think...
Thank you.

I think not yet since most ports are from phones with dual cam only with telephoto. Hoping someone will port a build specifically for mi 9.
Found a version where portrait works.
GCam_6.1.021_N7P_test2.3.apk
Motion photo also works, theres also a toggle to always show night mode for easy access which I think is really good.

Thanks very much for posting this find!
Let's keep it up. I had tried one of the LG wide angle ones but unfortunately it didn't work with the wide angle lens of our Mi 9.

Good find,
Could someone upload the APK and config somewhere, I'm unable to download from 4pda for some reason.
Thanks!
