Will It Be possibile to use Google Camera and his mighty HDR+ with our Tele camera (2x optical zoom)? Is there a way to switch between the two cameras and decide to use Wide or tele lens? I'm sure we could get a true and reliable optical zoom in almost all light conditions.
I don't think Google camera supports dual cameras at all and that was most probably the reason why xioami chose to use their own camera apk for this device..
Google Camera doesn't support dual camera. My question is: can we force Google Camera to use only telephoto lens? Can this be done by a magisk or xposed module? We could have two apps, one Google Camera using only 12 megapixel Wide lens and another one using only 12 megapixel telephoto lens.
Cstark27 made a Gcam version that uses Lgv30 Wide angle camera. That's exactly what i was asking. A Gcam using our telephoto lens is possibile! Is there anyone able to do the same for Xiaomi mi a1?

But Cstark write:
NOTE: This is built using info from the LG V30 which has 3 camera ID's:
Camera 0 (back)
Camera 1 (front)
Camera 2 (back (wide angle))
I cannot guarantee success on other devices, especially if the phone does not even report all cameras through the Camera2 API (use Camera2Test app to verify your device info).

Camera2 test, on my Mi A1 report only 2 cameas: Back and front :crying:
Maybe It has to be enabled in build.prop.

I hope that this version targeted to a dual camera phone will add support for that specific feature. If Google translation is good they are talking about how to have access to the 2nd camera. Maybe i'm too optimistic?

Hi Bro.
I have tested some of GCam Mod from @Arnova8G2 and @bsg . My device is Nokia 6.1 Plus TA-1116 running Pie
GCam ver 6 has nightsight fitur, GCam ver 5 has no nightsight fitur. For Nokia 6.1Plus who want use night sight fitur can use latest apk from arnova/bsg, however with some bugs because they are still develop using they own device and there is not yet stable version for GCam ver6.
BSG apk ver 6 with night sight:
- almost all works. Some of problem that I found is:
- viewfinder slow (although you disable dirty lens, it's still the same)
- photo result a bit bluish (over blue tint, i dont know it's because the apps, the lens, or the lcd screen)
- photo result a bit more vivid, not natural
- a bit darker result than ver5
- HDR+ Enhanced result not crispy detail like ver5 (i use ver5 in MiA1 running oreo and it's very good result, maybe because BSG use Mi8). In Nokia 6.1 Plus with Pie, HDR+ Enhanced from ver6 apk has soft result, like you use beauty fitur. Then I tested ver5 GCam in nokia 6.1 plus, result is the same, a bit soften. Don't know because the apps or because the lens, as i know Nokia 6.1 plus use samsung lens, not sony lens.
- Night Sight works but with to much noise
- Slow Mo crash
- Portrait mode works with soften result
In BSG there is setting to change front and back camera type like Nexus 6P, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 Xl, I have try all setting but still the same result a bit soften.
Arnova8G2 apk ver 6 with night sight:
- All image result almost the same with BSG, Arnova has more natural color result. But still in the same soften image even though you use HDR+ Enhanced
- Night sight better, but still in slow viewfinder, maybe because Nokia 6.1 Plus device cpu that use snapdragon 636
- Slow Mo crash
- Portrait mode result has the same with BSG
Ver 5 Gcam Arnova and BSG all works fine, but HDR+ Enhanced not a crispy like I use in MiA1
Overall, many thanks for all developer like @Arnova8G2 and @bsg who works for this GCam Mod. I'm not developer, but try to support with testing in my device. And all of you can help them with test in your device and give feedback result to them. Thankyou.

Unrelated but can you specifiy which build you are using for the Mi A1? I own one and I'm still using Arnova's v1 because I think it takes the most crispiest images I've tested yet, and all other builds don't have a longer exposure time resulting in worse HDR too.

Right now I'm using Arnova's V8.3b1 in Mi A1. This is Gcam mod from base 5.1 ver. Yes you right bro, this version the most crispiest and the best. Like Arnova's says, Hdr doesn't work since Gcam based ver 5.3.
I try to install V8.3b1 in Nokia 6.1 plus, the result is very different than MiA1. HDR still more crispy in MiA1 with the same setting (with "Nexus 6P setting is on). In Nokia 6.1 Plus looks like a bit soften/blurry.
I'm using this build now, will review it later. First Impression is pretty good. The only downside is laggy viewfinder. Will make a new main thread about Google Cam port later.

How to activate the 48mp camera features?
I tried the pro mode, but I cant find 48 mp button like the redmi note 7 or mi 9 camera app does
mine is black shark 2 6/128 chinese version
thanks
It's a 48MP sensor, but the images are 12MP. It uses quad bayer filtering (images are 1/4 the MP count as the actual sensor). "Pixel binning" is the main term everyone uses for it.

I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure that's discussed in another thread already. This thread was asking for info about the sensor being 48MP.
Which version of gcam works fine in the M3?
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/ All BSG versions are working fine
I saw this version but I don't understand why there are 6 versions, what are the differences (same size) between:
MGC_8.1.101_A9_PVo_snap.apk (org.codeaurora.snapcam)
MGC_8.1.101_A9_PVo_Eng.apk (com.google.android.GoogleCameraEng)
MGC_8.1.101_A9_PVo_MGC.apk (com.android.mgc)
MGC_8.1.101_A9_PVo_ruler.apk (com.samsung.android.ruler)
MGC_8.1.101_A9_PVo_scan3d.apk (com.samsung.android.scan3d)
PS:
A friend use
BufferFix_RN9_Wyroczen.zip
It's for Redmi Note 9 but they share exactly the same cam (Samsung S5KGM1). This is a buffer fix to "fix viewfinder lag on Google Camera and improve processing speeds."
how to flash BufferFix_RN9_Wyroczen.zip?

The different versions differ only in their package names, there is no other difference.

You can't. These sensors bin pixels 4:1, so the outputting image is always 12MP. Even when you see 48MP option in the original app, that's actually 12MP image upscaled to 48.
8.2 video not work, yep its alpha.
systemID=0 is main
systemID=3 is macro
systemID=1 is front
so, what is deep lens?
bsg 8.1 works the best
M3.xml ?
