Portrait mode (Modified Camera NX) working partially on X829

Just reporting in that a modified Camera NX, which ports the Pixel 2's portrait mode, is working on my Le Max 2 running the Lineage OS 14.1 (23rd Dec nightly). I have the stock LOS cam and another GCam also installed.
It has been modified to work on nougat devices. Link to the original comment and apk is here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75044279&postcount=2251
Portrait mode looks amazing. Works only on the back camera though. I didn't make any modifications to the app. It worked right out of the box.
Video recording doesn't work.

For me it fully works on AICP 13.1 (Oreo 8.1). Portait mode is awesome.

That's nice! With Oreo it's working on both, the front and back cameras.
We need to keep tabs on development for Nougat ROM's. Only thing missing is the portrait mode on the front and ARcore+ARstickers support (not 100% sure about this).
I'm really hesitant to switch to an Oreo ROM right now because of stability issues.

For Nougat. Tested on Omni 7.1.2...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/camera-nx-nougat-devices-t3729325

Not the front camera though. Right?

On acip 13.1 build 030118 it's a little bugg, frontcam portrait mode works but I have a green overlay on the pictures... Any solution for this?
Wich config do u use for it?

I can confirm the green tint problem in nougat too (LOS 14.1).
The file I'm using is called GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.3-Front-HDR+.APK

Ok, I admit I did not check front camera (as I never use it) and on AICP 13.1 there is some problem with green tint and stability of the app.
The rear camera is ok, the bokeh looks nice.
I use this version: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620775729

Yeah, I'm using that on ACIP Oreo and there is a definite green tint on the front camera portrait pics. Shame, as they are very good otherwise but the only thing you can do to make them usable is apply a B&W filter. Back camera works well.

I have tried most of these Google Camera Portrait apks and always when I try it take a portrait picture the app always renders is as a HDR photo, is there any fix and is anyone else getting the same problem, I have tried AICP 8.1 and Nougat ROMS but I am having no luck at all.

I also have green tint on main/rear camera and can't solve the problem for over a month.
All OREOs more or less with all Gcam mods + EUI6.0 have green tint.
Only Android 6.0.1 and Mokee 7.1.2 take pictures without green tint.

GoogleCamera-Pixel3Mod-Arnova8G2-V3.apk has no green tinting... ?

Thank you dude for your attention to non mi5 users... Much much appretiated... We've noticed that portrait mode doesn't work on our device.... I'm personally running PureFusion OS 8.0 with latest app version which is 1.5beta...
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs

Thank you @Arnova8G2 so much for responding to Thread that is Not Mi5 actually HTC 10 have good Hardware and we wonder why the Gcam doesnt work so good like in Other devices.
For me the only Version that work on Android Nougat Sense Based ROM is Arnova 1.2 based on 5.18 Gcam this is the best build so far only the Front Camera doesnt work crashesh on this build and the Slow Motion but this is not important
I hope we to have just one one Build that will be able to work smooth without crashesh to use the Google Camera potential
for Portrait Mode and all other stuffs for now are just Dreams for HTC 10

Is there anyone with working portrait mode?? (htc 10 Android 7.0)

@Arnova8G2
I found a Gcam port that WORK Superb on Nougat 7.0 Sense HTC 10 ROMs.
Everything is super no laggs at all the front facing camera is working too with HDR+ the Back as well. Auto no config settings all is auto.
The Camera UHD 1080 720 everything work perfectly fine and smooth!
RAW is working too.
The only thing that is not working but is there is the Portrait just gives me a black screen.
The App is using Huawei Marker so we can have this as a base because its seems superb fast camera.
Tonight will upload it when i come back home.
This that will make this apk BEST port of the Gcam for HTC 10 is
to adjust the JPG quality to 100%
and if posible to try fixing the Portrait mode!

I feel like soon we can have a Working Gcam
if anyone is familiar with Android Studio so ever and cant lower the API
i think this build can work on HTC 10 since We have already all the hardware needed
But the API is 25 this mean Android 7.1 and above.
So can anybody make it API 24 ?

I did try gcam... it starts but potrait mode crashes... hdr+ might work fine... i never clicked a pic, cz i am not very image friendly! however, the mode can be switched on..

I installed linage 15.1, 64 bit, android 8.1 and tried nearly all cameras but all camera are crashing.
I think it's due to the ROMs not supporting stock camera app. So no portrait mode for us!

I tried several ports. While the mode can be switched on, taking a photo doesn't process HDR+ and the outcome of the image is either green (Every second picture taken is green) or is a normal SDR picture.

I've tried both AICP and Pixel and couldn't get working portrait mode..
Using 32bits ROM will NEVER make us possible to use portrait mode. On other chance, using 64bits Rom there is a CHANCE it'll work in the future.

I'm going back to InvictaOS. Oreos ROM aren't optimized yet. Give it a month

Just for information:
The portrait mode is just a software feature that makes the background blurry. So take a picture and use any photo editor out there and make a mask with blurry background for example. Or use photo apps that can make this.
Phones without telephoto lens or without an big sensor won't be capable of making this without software tricks. And even then you need some distance between the object and background to get blurry background. That's called a low depth of field.

Anyone got it working?

...Look at the previous replies holy crap.

have patience! remember we still have only stock nougat so oreo ROMs are going to be buggy... 64 bit ROMs will go better... and will be useful ones they are stable.. i did notice that they are more fluid than others...but that's just my observation or my way to use it.
There will be more things that you might come across...ones things are good
You can also use normal Gcam with lens blur feature... it does the same thing and is very stable. The portrait mode was in pixel given the fact its camera has wide aperture and hence the portrait mode is effect is created. hence its price!
---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------
if you really want to take good pictures! use Invicta OS hal3 version and the stock moto camera app.. it does great job!

Gcam MGC 6.1.021 by BSG Settings

Hello,
this thread is actually nothing special, I've just found some settings to get good results out of these Gcam apks and I'd like to share them here.
This is tested on the latest Stock Pie (10.0.2.0) and it works on my device.
So, first of all you have to enable Camera2API obviously (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/how-to-enabling-cam2-gcam-android-t3868766), but I think you're all familiar with that at this point.
Download one of these apks: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/
(I'm on the latest one) or if you prefer an Arnova version based on MGC by BSG (No PixelMod).
After that go into settings->BSG MOD settings.
Input Model: Set "Interface Style" to "Pixel II" (there are some focus issues with Pixel III), "Back Camera" to "Pixel 3 XL", "Front Camera" to "Nexus 6P" and "Config" to "Pixel2018 ZslR Hdr+"
FIX: Set "RAW Format" to "RAW10(default)" (this should already be set), "Image Format" to "YUV_420_888 (default)" and enable "Enable Motion" if you're into motion photos.
After that close the app, clear its cache and start it again.
If you experience some FC, try to clear again the cache and restart the app.
Now you should get a fairly stable Gcam with good performance, at least this is the best I've tried so far.
Portrait mode, HDR+, HDR enhanced and HDR OFF all work, burst photos work, Motion photos work, Night mode work, front camera works, panoramic works.
The only broken thing is Slow Motion.
The Camera will crash if you try to take a picture with Flash and HDR+ on OFF, but to me it's not a big deal since I never turn it off unless I want to take a burst. Anyway if you set "Pixel2018 Zsl Hdr+" in "Config" you should get this to work as well, but you'll lose Motion Photos. it's up to you here.
So that's it, if you find any better Setting, please share it

Sorry for maybe hijacking the post but i was using a gcam for nokia 7 plus which has the same 660 chip found here https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-backrider/ . I found it to be really stable too except 4k which doesnt work.

No hijack, don't worry!
I'm trying it and it works mostly fine, but it looks like it FC a bit more often than the BSG version (maybe it's just an impression of mine).
Anyway the main think I dislike about the non-BSG versions is that you can't select "Pixel II" as the interface and you lose tap to focus, which makes the app completely unusable to me.
