I'm thinking of flashing a custom ROM on my G6 - bit fed up of waiting for LG to get their act together.
I use the wide angle lens option on the camera quite a bit however - so is there a camera that can be used on a custom ROM to take advantage of it on the G6?
Hi! I just saw the V30 ported camera on the G6 here. I tried to flash that camera on my Lineage 14 G6 but it didn't worked out. I don't know of other camera app
So far, there is no custom ROM that supports the wide angle camera lens.
Also, stock camera apps will never work on Lineage.
Open camera and whatsapp have support for all 3 the camera's

Just wondering if you guys have seen any 3rd party camera apps that utilities the wide angle lens.
Hi, I am interested in too I was searching deeply and haven't found nothing but we can hope some dev tune up LG Camera app which is quite good already. At least less postprocess like washing details as intend to noise reduction (jpeg) is for me priority n1.

Camera Super Pixel from dev Mobileillusion doesn't support dual lens but works with G6. Latest version is older BUT shots are incredibly CLEAN and no washed in low light. Best results in terms of picture tech quality.

Hi to all!
I would like to create a meeting point for all LG G4 users of Google Camera mod's.
In my personal experience (LG G4 H815 @kessaras AOSCP (Oreo 8.1) 20170105):
NX Camera 7.1 fails
BSG Camera fails
@Arnova8G2 Cam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.4Beta2 works partially (Portrait mode works perfect. Normal photo mode fail on rear camera)
Hope to help to join experiencies and get a extra on our nice camera
@Arnova8G2 GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.5Beta2.apk work fine (some crash) on @kessaras g4 aoscp Oreo 8.1 20180107 ROM. Back and front camera working portrait and hdr+
scrubber_GCam_5.1.018.apk works but no portrait

I'm on v29 Nougat. (H-ROM).
MGCB_7.0H_C2API_Mid_v.3.8b_AllinOne_Full_Manual:
Works fine for me, I genuinely like the pictures better than stock camera. But I also feel like the stock camera makes worse pictures than it did under MM (only a feeling, didn't do any testing). Video doesn't work, however.
GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.4:
Front camera works, but back camera is all black, going through a ton of settings didn't fix it.

Ok, then I will try to ask for deletion or something. Did not realized of that thread
Does any google camera port work on any of the Stock Rom? any with HDR+ or portrait?
Development for the device keeps growing and with it the available ROMs. Since most are based on the same source we see some common bugs in all nougat ROMs, bugs that don't really bother me, but I really like to take photos in my free time, enabling camera API and using Google camera looks like an improvement in quality, but I would like to use the ability of the second lens of zooming without loosing image quality, but custom ROMs seems to don't detect the telephoto lens. I installed stock camera apk but the option to use the other lens is missing.
Is there a way to active and use it on any custom ROM? Sorry for the long question.
Same issue here, i would like to get a solution for this too ..
Hi! I'm thinking off buying a Xiaomi Mi A1 and was wondering how does the lineageos photo app compare to stock one? Is the photo quality the same? Does the 2x optical zoom work?
dont buy mia1 in 2018 buddy, get something with sd636/660 or 845 instead. Redmi note 5 pro, mia2 and poco f1 are my quick suggestions.
Thank you for you repley but it doesn't answer my question. I don't play games so don't give a crap about faster CPU. My Nexus 5 is enough for me so I presume that Mi A1 CPU will be more than enough. It has micro SD and 3,5 jack so all I need. Back on topic. How does the lineageos camera photo quality compare to stock? I would like to run lineage Google free.
If you want quality, you must install Gcam port. Both stock and aosp cameras suck.
Not running Lineage, but I saw Magisk module for stock camera on custom ROMs, so you should be able to use stock app with 2x zoom. 3rd party camera apps do not support switching to 2x zoom lens (at least none of those which I tried). Though 2x zoom lens is not very useful, thanks to slow aperture it's next to unusable in anything else than bright light. Portrait mode is nice in theory, but you can't turn of "beautification" mode, which is utter crap as it smears all the details. Otherwise stock camera performance during day is very good (IMHO much more natural than GCAM). In low light it's crap, this is when I switch to GCAM and its magical HDR mode. But I don't know if you can run GCAM without Google framework.
So I'm stuck with either google looking into my pants or using some patched files which I can't trust or having a crap stock camera. SNAFU
Well, pick your poison..
Hi,
Is there a way to install and run OOS Camera app (the one that comes preinstalled in OOS) in LineageOS 18.1 ? I'm guessing it's not only about the camera apk itself but also about some parts of the sub-system / kernel which include appropriate drivers to the Camera sensor hardware.
I switched from OOS to LOS and experience has been near flawless, until I remembered that camera support is as usual with AOSP roms is still a big issue since manufacturers will not open their APIs for full access and control to the camera sensor. I've tried all sorts of gCam mods, and the main issue is that none of them actually support the 2x lens, which I use a lot. Even back when I ran OOS and had both OOS camera and gCam mod installed, I would still defauilt to the native OOS camera for most usecases (full res photos, video, slowmotion and timelaps videos) and use gCam for specific uses (photosphere and panorama). I feel I'm going to have to revert to OOS if I cannot find a workaround the LineageOS / gCam situation and I feel I've been thrown back 5-10 years back camera performance-wise.
Thanks in advance for your help
There is no 2x lens in 6T it's a depth sensor.
Use this GCam Mod follow the instruction properly, it's a great camera app.
If you want to try OOS camera, try this. It didn't worked very well for me but you can try.

You are mistaken. The 6T has a dual camera set up. The first and main is a wide angle, the second is a 2x fixed lens. You can actually switch between cameras on the oneplus camera app (and you can check that by masking each camera with your finger) ; you cannot on the GCam mode which only talks to the main wide angle lense.

There is no 2x camera you can read it here https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...Vaw2MnkBUfABdd7OvgZiq0L7D&cshid=1621417321749
And GCam has way better picture quality than OOS cam.

Oh wow I stand corrected, thanks!
I dont know if its related to the API but sometimes the picture is taken with a bad focus even if it was good on the preview. And the flash is too late. There is a reddit about this with no real solution... I dont know if i have to inform lineage to adapt their stock app...
