I know it's a great feature, but it's a bit complicated on my part, tbh. As I mentioned here, the Night Sight flash only works with the 8.1 fix enabled. While the code for NS flash is quite simple, the 8.1 fix is quite complicated since its specific codes are spread throughout the application; one wrong or missing adjustment, and it messes up a lot of features. I can only deal with a few minor features at a time, and this one here's on the complicated side that I would need a lot of time to work on. I hope you understand.

Thank you very very much! With that 3 settings for me is enough, i don't see no reason to use less that 95% neither!!
Thanks again!
Gcan 2.5
Me encanta esta versión yo tengo un Xiaomi mi A1 y va genial porfi funciona el enfoque automático en 12 MP aunque sea solo en retrato, para lo demás hay que bajarle a 9 mp, la cámara frontal en HDR sigue en verde y la cámara lenta no va pero es un avance las fotos en retrato salen muy muy bien muchas gracias

I think he only supports it for Nokia 7 plus. He hasn't got time to optimise for other devices
To all those owning a non-Nokia 7 plus, thank you for stopping by and trying this port. Let me just quote what was posted in the front page, in case you missed it:
Although it's fine if you tell us that it works on your device, even if you encounter bugs. After all, feedback is feedback. Requests are a different story, however.

I tested this gcam on my zenfone 5z and it works quite well. But sometimes the shutter button doesn't work with hdr+ enhance
The focus tracking heat up the phone a lot when focus which is weird because it doesn't happen when I try arnova 1.4.0
Zoom doesn't work properly
When I zoom in (like 2x) there is a drop in megapixels count to 4.5 MP from 12.2 MP. Plz fix this in next update ?

Thanks for the notice. This seems to happen when you use pinch-to-zoom and/or scrubbing the zoom handle beyond the 50% zoom. I get inconsistent replications of this bug, though. I'll get back to this soon. In the meantime, a workaround is to use the +/- button adjustments for the zoom-- it always produces 12.2 MP.
I read one post in the Nokia 7 Plus - Philippines Facebook group asking about setting a different default gallery app when reviewing photos. So here's an attempt to give you the option to change the default gallery app.
GCam_6.1.021_N7P_test2.6
Changes vs. test2.5 :
- Added "Change default gallery": you can now change default gallery between the Classic Photo Viewer, Google Photos, and other gallery app of your choice (see screenshot 1)
If you select the "Other gallery app" option for the first time, when you tap the recent photo in the viewfinder you will be greeted with the list of gallery apps supporting the image review feature (see screenshot 2). Here you can set the gallery app of your choice, and choose "Always" in the second attempt. Not all 3rd party gallery apps support the image review feature, though. Also consider the following when using 3rd party gallery apps as default:
If you want to change the default 3rd party gallery app, simply open the App info of the current default gallery app -> Advanced -> Open by default -> CLEAR DEFAULTS. Then you can set the default gallery app again.

Also consider the following when using 3rd party gallery apps as default:
- Image reviewing when launching camera from a pin-protected lock screen is not supported: rather, you will be redirected to the need of unlocking the phone to open the photo.
- Unless the 3rd party gallery app supports viewing of all photos regardless of its folder location (Sony's Album, for example), reviewing Portrait photos contained in individual folders (i.e. when "Save portraits to DCIM/Camera/" is turned OFF) can be annoying since you need to open the entire gallery app to view photos in separate folders.
- Same with the Google Photos bug, immediately opening the photo while HDR+ is still processing will bring you back to the viewfinder.
- Same with the Classic Photo Viewer, deleting photos here after being automatically backed up via Google Photos will only delete the phone copy.
If you want to change the default 3rd party gallery app, simply open the App info of the current default gallery app -> Advanced -> Open by default -> CLEAR DEFAULTS. Then you can set the default gallery app again.

57The original thread of the first posts and discussions here.
Hello! With the plethora of GCam ports out there (thank you, devs), my very objective is to make all necessary features work on our phone, all the while making things simple and clean possible. In contrast with the existing ports that have a lot of settings to tinker, I am aiming for a no-config port that simply works well. Please note that I am not a developer per se; you see, this was just a hobby that I am doing on my spare time and it occurred to me one day that I want to share my efforts to everyone else.
WHAT'S WORKING
DOWNLOAD
F.A.Q.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK the awesome devs for the wonderful GCam ports. Of course special thanks to @Arnova8G2, @cstark27, @S4turno, @Tolyan009, B-S-G, and everyone at the "Nokia 7 plus google camera HDR+ ZSL" XDA thread and other social media platform. Best!49Hi it's been a while. I had to set aside this coding stuff since I had to prioritize my Master's thesis these past weeks.
GCam_6.2.030_N7P_test1.3
Changelog:
- Toggle to directly save Portrait shots to /DCIM/Camera (thanks san1ty): a lot of people wanted this feature, so here it is. But be warned: I haven't done any extensive tests to verify if the portrait bug from previous versions still occur here; so far it's okay. Use at your own risk.
- Toggle to use custom lib (from @cstark27): from the custom libs I've tried, Sav ZA v3 is so far the best in my opinion. It significantly reduces black crush while keeping noise reduction etc the same as stock lib. However, this also reduces overall contrast and/or saturation. It's your choice.
- Enabled DCI-P3 color space: I honestly don't know what this does, but I hope enabling it brings some sort of improvement.
- Fixed washed-out RAW photos (thanks for the tips @Urnyx05): RAW (.dng) photos now won't have washed out colors straight out of the camera.
And oh, before I forget:
Q: Where's Google Camera v6.3?
A: As of this writing, there had been no (very) stable public version yet, so I won't risk it. Plus other than being an unofficial version, the only significant change is Night Sight in place of Panorama in the viewfinder; nothing else.
Again, If the app is lagging or acting weird, just clear app data and follow the installation instructions described in the previous versions.

P.S. This will be the last version that I'll be sharing because I don't have my device anymore. Anyway, I'd like to thank everyone for all the help and support that made these ports possible32GCam_6.2.024_N7P_test1
This is my first release of Google Camera v6.2.024 that I optimized for Nokia 7 Plus. Everything in v6.1 still works including photo stuff, video stuff, slow motion, photobooth, lens blur, etc. with the following notable changes.
Changelog vs v6.1 ... test6a:
- Overall performance improvements
- Added "About" page
---> added "GCam settings descriptions" to serve as a quick guide for the different GCam settings options in this port.
- Under "GCam settings":
---> minor rearrangements
---> added toggle for Dark theme
---> "Use custom lib" is Xlib v3: until more libs are ported with 6.2 compatibility, this is the viable option we have for now.
---> "Saturation" has been simplified to three (3) options: Low, Medium, and High
---> Removed the following options:
-------> "Save portraits to DCIM/Camera/": due to stability concerns
-------> "HDR+ Enhanced frames": frame number optimizations are already applied under the hood
-------> "Maximum brightness"
NOTE: Uninstall any previous or related versions first before installing this.

GCam_6.2.024_N7P_test131This is more of a test version for the purpose of getting feedback. I added selections for camera model and denoise multiplier for front and rear cameras. I would really appreciate it if you share your recommended camera model and denoise setting combinations here with photo comparisons/samples. Out-of-the box the defaults are set to Pixel 3 XL model for both cameras, and 100% and 400% denoise for rear and front cameras, respectively (which is, in fact, the default settings of the previous test1).
Just to share my initial trials this evening, the Pixel 2 XL model was the best for my taste. That's just me, and again, I'd appreciate if you share your settings here with photo samples.
GCam_6.2.024_N7P_test1.2
Changelog vs test1.1:
- Added front and rear camera model selections.*
- Added front and rear denoise multiplier selections.
*only Pixel 3 XL model supports Pixel 3 AWB.
NOTE: Fresh install or clear data after installation is highly recommended.

P.S. I'll be taking a break from coding for a while. I have to send my device to the service center since its loosened charging port is getting worse. I've no idea when the device will return, but in the meantime your feedback and photos are very much appreciated. Thanks!29The 'a' means this is a minor update. And same as before, I have both the lib and no-lib variants.
GCam_6.1.021_N7P_test2.4a
Changes vs. test2.4 :
- Fixed shortcut crashes when Lens Blur Mode is enabled: you know what that means? Yes, Lens Blur Mode is now permanently enabled (see attached screenshot 1); that also means the toggle to turn it on/off in GCam settings is removed. Many thanks to @Arnova8G2 for the fix.
- Added launcher shortcut for Photobooth: this only appears in a some 3rd party launchers like Nova + Sesame (see attached screenshot 2) and Microsoft launcher because the stock launcher (and most other launchers) can only show up to 4 shortcuts max. (I tried adding a 6th, but it won't show up. Oh well, I guess 5 is enough haha)
Again, if you have any trouble with the app acting a bit funny, do the following: force close; clear data; clean install; reboot device.
