Google Camera Port for Moto Z2 Play - Moto Z2 Play Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hello Sirs, I would like to call everyone who has an interest in having the portability of Google Camera with the maximum possible resources, for our beloved Moto Z2 Play device, both developers to generate this compatibility as the sponsors in form of donation to these developers by the job.
I contacted @Arnova8G2 who is currently the main developer of such compatibility with more smartphones.
He asked to run the test with the Camera2 Test application, in which I am attaching the report here in this post.
I would like the manifesto of all those interested in being willing to make donations and to the developers who proposes the possibility of bringing this feature to Moto Z2 Play.
Camera2 Test Resume:
OS Version: 3.18.71-perf-g554d879(26)
OS API Level: 8.0.0(26)
Device: albus
Model (and Product): Moto Z2 Play (albus)

I am in !

Me too

Iam also very much interested

I want

I think everyone want it... But we have ARM Oreo... Gcam need ARM64

Actually Moto Z2 Play has no Camera2 implemented, so I think it won't be possible.
At least not on stock ROMs.

Eager to ee
Any update on this made??

Just download Google camera version 2.7 from apkmirror. Works fine. 360 images and all.

Does this mean I get the donation, lol?

In the ResorectionRemix rom have a google apk camera modifiet for our sensor.
But the apk is little outdated. We need some one to modify the new version whit fixed autofocus.

This version is very old from 2015 if I'm not mistaken. Versions 3 4 and 5 have already popped up so it seems an updated modded version would not hurt

I use the 360 mode only. If the new version has some other features I'd be curious. I use my stock camera app for most pics.

That camera won't have the HDR+ which is what is meant by porting Gcam. I posted in the apps thread today one that has HDR+ and is ported for 32bit.

Google camera 6.1 (pixel 3) working relatively stable.
Thanks to the developer san1ty.
Download here (last version)
- Use the app configured as it comes.
- Only change HDR min and max frames to 28 (36 may be too much for our cpu, i had fc's).
- The night sight mode only will work on devices up to 3gb of ram memory.
Bugs: camera does not focus and save pictures (in normal -no HDR- mode)
Tested on a Moto z2 play (albus) running lineageos 15.1.
Obviously requires 64 bit OS (only custom roms)

im using moto z2 play. so as i am.

Google Camera 4.2 on Moto X play [Custom ROM]

Is there anyone out here who has successfully ported Google Camera 4.2 in any custom ROM for Moto X play ? if yes then please share here because i really need it..
Sir, did you find anything yet?
I'm also searching for the google camera app.
We cannot use Google camera app in our Moto X Play.
As Google Camera requires camera2 API enabled in our roms which is not implemented in any custom and stock rom.
Furthermore Google camera is 64 bit application but the Android (custom+stock ) we use is a 32bit OS.

hdr+ for our phone?

Hi everyone, it is possible to shot hdr+ photos on Moto G5 Plus?
I don't think the ISP on the 625 chip can handle HDR+. You could try to look into the mod made for the Nexus 5X, but it uses the 808 chip. Probably the best place to start.

Well of course not, that mod is designed for the Nexus 5X. I was saying that the mod may give you an idea of how to do it for the G5 Plus, but obviously that mod wouldn't work for our phone.
Yes, it is possible with custom ROM.
Aug. 11 Google Camera with HDR+ https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-ported/
The APP CANNOT work on Moto G5 Plus with stock ROM, but runs well on foollowing devices:
ASUS ZenFone 3 Zoom (ZE553KL) Snapdragon 625 + IMX 362 (same as Moto G5 Plus)
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon 625 + LineageOS 14.1 or Resurrection Remix OS or AOSP
Please share the HDR+ photo comparission if you succeed.

Amazon versions of the G5 Plus can apparently be rooted but they have to be on the initial firmware. Apparently updating the stock firmware to NPNS25.137-35-5 or above potentially breaks the ability to root. See the following link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4-play/development/root-autoinitroot-motorola-bootloader-t3639316

but after root i can't make any system modifications including build.prop to enable camera2api... or i can edit build.prop without problems?

When I checked the code camera 2 had some simulation convergence which required focus and auto Exposure to converge at the same time I think the ae thread holds up the process so focus works sometimes other times it's out of :fingers-crossed focus
The workaround was to modify the gcam code and break the AF trigger and set the focus to off this mode allows us Moto g5 users to lock focus at driver level at a specific distances i mostly shoot landscapes sometimes macro so I have a zaf config file to 1000cm settable distances are 7cm 10 14 20 30 40 50 60 120 hyperfocal 1000cm to switch files/config can be done via scripts it's quick I personally don't find it as a big deal as we gain hdr+ .
Also have a modified driver for low light that and paired with hdr+ low light is pretty darn good imo with modified lib not even the pixel could keep up.
Also about 64bit being required this apk is not from 4pda and is modified from the last 32bit gcam

Is this only for stock ROM or should also work on custom ROMs? Someone above mentioned that it crashes on LOS.
Saying "modified driver for low light", you mean your noise reduction/sharpening mod?
Thanks in advance for reply and for your work on camera app.

In front and back camera for portrait mode

Nokia 6 and moto g4 plus both are work in stock android
In Nokia 6 Google camera to possible portrait mode
But moto g4 plus why can't install
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/themes/google-camera-hdr-portrait-selfie-t3733577
Please dev work camera
Portrait mode not only needs software but also a hardware support! The processor support is needed.. The processors used might be different! Also, I haven't seen the ROM of Nokia 6... For portrait mode the ROM needs to be 64bit.
Google camera's portrait mode is made for pixel 2..look at its specs and the processor and the camera hardware it carries.
I don't know about Nokia 6's config so won't be able to comment exactly the difference.
But please don't ask devs to do something. They provide stuff for free and they know what to provide when! They do it in their free time hence the delay. We all have out lives apart from this forum!
You can use lens blurr in google camera for now it works in the same way.

It also doesn't help that on oreo, we don't have a stable camera.
Remember that even if the phone had the same CPU the implementation could be completely different and would require separate methods of porting.
The Pixel 2 features of GCAM is designed to be only used on the, guess what? The Pixel 2. The community has ported over the features to work on many devices but it is not designed to run on all devices.
We might even have to wait for the official release of stock oreo, please be patient and see.
Agreed with the above post. as far as i know, Gcam works effectively on 64 bit ROM with camera2api and Oreo. We still do not have official Oreo neither do we have oreo camera drivers to support it.
Why Google camera is working on Moto g5 plus and not on Moto g4 plus since both have ported 64bit ROM

Why Google mod camera is not working on Xiaomi mi note 2?

Gcam mod is not working on Xiaomi mi note 2 why i don't know why?
I have camera2api enabled and my mi note 2 is rooted. i almost try all Gcam mod apps but no success yeah 3.xx version is working but is not good as 5.xx versions.
Please if any one of you have working Gcam mod so please share the all procedure and links.
I try Gcam mod on RR oreo rom,global miui stable, global beta and eu rom

Bro but in link version of gcam is not good.
I used this one https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/MGC_3.2.045_final_2.2.apk, buth this one https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/MGC_3.2.045_FINAL_3.3.apk works too. HDR+ works for front and rear camera, however Lens Blur still buggy

I can tell you this for sure, i spent last 2 days trying to get a fully functional Gcam to work on my Note 2 and there is no way to do it. Must have tried 3 dozens different Gcams....and a dozen different hacks on how to get them to work. Some work with no HDR some work only back cam some with no Video Camera etc etc.
I'm running Pixel Experience (8.1) Rom that comes with a basic Gcam with no HDR that is the closest to a working cam. I decided to opt for Open Camera that is free fully functional (HDR, DRO and more) video rec works, front and back work and it supports Cam2Api for extra functions. I'd like to get a fully functional Gcam but as far as i know is not possible...yet at least.
The question *WHY* is a very good starting point.
There are almost no phones sharing the quirky SONY imx318 sensor. Just a handful, rather unpopular phones. Which means no development on the gcam, etc.
However, knowing that the Note 2 has a SD821 SoC and a SONY IMX sensor, porting *should* be possible.
(Google Pixel is running an SD821 and a (far superior) SONY IMX sensor)
I forgot to mention that I have Pixel Experience installed and have removed the preinstalled camera first with help of system app uninstaller , before installing the camera. HDR+ works so far.

Proposal to solve the problem of the camera in Oreo ROMs

I just have an idea. And I want to post it here and find if it is possible.
I understand that Moto Z Play has the same camera lens as the Moto G4 Plus.
They have a rear camera OmniVision OV16860, and a front camera OminVision OV5693.
With that said, they share the same hardware in terms of camera.
Is there any way to port the Oreo camera drivers from the Moto Z Play to our devices?
Anybody has tried this?
Thanks.
From the many posts I've read in the forum, the camera issue is connected to our chipset and not the camera hardware. The snapdragon 617 is a pretty sh*tty chipset and all the devices that use them have pretty much zero development and vendor support. I guess those guys are all waiting for athene to get Oreo. Guess we're out of luck. BTW correct me if I'm wrong. At least this'll serve as a bump to this thread.
I Found the perfect combination for a smoth Pie Rom with a totally fast an functionally camera (photos and video) no lag and instant functionally gestures (even instant Chop chop for flash light!)
I am so happy about it!
Since I installed Oreo ROMs I was suffering cause I couldn't use the camera properly and some other functions of my Moto g4+.
I had read that because Qualcomm 617 chipset has very little attention from official developers then the camera shows incompatibilitys and then works wrong in custom ROMs (even in stock rom soak 8.1)
In January 14th they published AOSIP (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo.../rom-android-source-illusion-project-t3889942)
In combination of this great Rom and a zip I found to flash in TWRP of Moto camera 2 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/pixel-gapps-rom-t3731231 - find the Moto camera 2 download link) I accomplished what I was trying since I installed Oreo in my device...
This camera probably works in any arm64 Rom... But I love AOSIP so far and that's what I have Install to experiment with the camera zip)
Off course the world isn't perfect so I can't paste url Chrome links in lawnchair (AOSIP it's probably based in some Rom with that problem... Some of then have it and some of them not) but I can live without it for today.
So if you're frustrated because the camera issue of Moto g4 plus... This solve it!
Asus Camera port is also useful. No green images!
