I don't use this myself but, the following are probably your best options in obtaining a Ported Pixel 3 GCam that's supposed to work for other devices. Don't be afraid to ask for some member guidance within one of them too.

Good Luck!

UNLESS asked to do so, PLEASE don't PM me regarding support. Sent using The ClaRetoX Forum App on my Enigma Machine {aenigma = Latin for "Riddle"}.

Alas new gcam are only for 64 bits phones,and ours is 32 bits. There is no way to obtain a pixel 3 gcam.

It only works on phones with a Qualcomm Hexagon 680 DSP which the S5's SD 801 lacks.

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

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

Did anyone get Google Camera working with Portrait Mode and HDR+ on Oreo?

I'm interested in getting Portrait Mode and HDR+ on my P10 Lite and all the GCamera APKs I tested didn't work, but they were for Nougat. Did anyone try the Google Camera with Portrait Mode and HDR+ mod on Oreo?
Here is a version you can try:

Quoted the wrong guy. Try following the link in the OP. However as I said in the quoted post: don't expect miracles when the device isn't using a Snapdragon processor.

Wrong thread dude
I just bought a samsung galaxy s7 edge model SM-G935T honestly I'm disappointed at the photo level. I was expecting a lot better especially on this model I have a sony imx 260 sensor, which is weird with the Chinese smartphone leeco pro 3 which a sensor sony imx 298 of lower quality. I can produce better shots on leeco X722 thanks to the Google camera. Is there a way to install the gcam on samsung so you can get the most out of it?

Yes, I am aware that there are certainly some versions of gcam function for the Samsung SM-G935T especially that I am very connected in this area with leeco pro 3 which accepts almost all versions of this list thank you for having me answered.
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
It's good, I found version 6.1021 works best on the Samsung SM-G935T under oreo and bug least compared to others. Exactly it is the one I use with my leeco pro 3 but against the battery it is empty at a speed unbelievable. On leeco the application is better optimized, it consumes less battery. As you can see I took some pictures with the application.

There is another version that works very well on my samsung SM-G935T snapdragon 820 without crash compared to others is this version or there is precisely Yuv_420_888 which must be selected in the settings for no bug.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_Potter_v6slidertest-san1ty.apk
On this version the viewfinder and much faster.
I have two versions that works well on our smartphone under snapdragon 820 with the rom oreo even without being rooted.
There are several, but I chose the most recent one.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2a+.apk
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V1a_xcam_0.apk
Do the tests and look at the one that brings you the most satisfaction.
This is a new version of gcam that is rich in option and works well under oreo but it does not crash.
install this one first
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V1a_xcam_0.apk
and over install this new version and create a gcam folder with the file config.xml

I explained in my previous comment to be able to install the second application without crash and that it is very rich in option, it must first install the first application is configure it by activating the hdr +
and after finishing the installation of the first, especially do not uninstall it that is the same developer of the second, and install the second that will take over the first.
the goal is that the second application installs without any crash.
I am getting the same green tint all over the picture specialy front cam.
Please help me
For selfies install this app in addition
do not uninstall the other.
because I tried all the parameters, but unfortunately, the green tint remains present.
it works best for selfies without the drawbacks of red or green hue.

sorry, but you have a serious problem, I notice that you do not read enough previous messages that I posted or explain that these versions are compatible only for the Samsung Galaxy S7 under the Snapdragon 820 processor, and I do not do that at chance, at first I try first on my smartphone Leeco pro 3 because with this phone all versions are compatible, but the objective is to compare the quality of the images, if it is of good quality I made the try on my Samsung smartphone and if it works, I share it with others in the community who have the same processor as mine because most have tested and posted versions it works on their smartphone, but the problem is that you rush without reading what I posted before, if you resume all my previous messages that I put online or I answer a person who asks me if it works under the Exynos processor? I answer that it does not work because it is not the same processor.
Funny people go crazy for no reason.. For your record, I have spent lot of time searching and trying. And. By the way, the mentioned comboo WORK on my Exynos S7.

Please forgive me for my previous message that I misinterpreted but soon I intend to get the same phone as the samsung SM-G930F is I will do google camera tests thank you
Listen, I'll give you an example on this version
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog324/
which is in my opinion the best GCAM of all the cameras that I tested on my Leeco pro 3, but unfortunately, does not work on the Samsung Galaxy S7 under Oreo because for me, it's the best version of all GCAM that I tested is particularly the most complete in the viewfinder attaches to perfection and works perfectly on my Leeco pro 3 that it is for selfies or tip top of the rear camera, I wanted to run it on the Samsung but alas the crash of the device.

I want to root it just so that I can use Google camera but in 2 years be able to unroot it to give back to office.

My device(SM-A920F) have been root and I enable the camera 2 API,but I still can't use the gcam when I open it, it's black screen then crash.
