[APK] Google Camera 6.2.030 fully working

HomerSp · Dec 17, 2018

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share this google camera port that I modded to work on the Razer Phone 1. It's based on BSG's latest (MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V1f.apk) build, but with some modifications made by me to make it not crash immediately as well as work with the front facing camera. The crashes are caused by the front facing camera only supporting legacy mode and not camera2 which is a requirement of Google Camera from a few versions ago.

The default settings seem to work fine for me, but I haven't really tried different configs and such, so do let me know if you experience any crashes or other oddities and I will look into it.

Downloads

BSG v2.0.0 (2019-09-30):
- Initial build based on BSG's MGC_6.2.030_RazerPhone2_V5.apk
- Force back facing camera for Portrait and Night Sight modes
- Show an error message when Do not disturb is enabled, this would cause a crash due to a bug in the Android framework

TlnNeun v1.0.0 (2018-12-21):

Excellent news! I'll try your mod and share my experience. Thanks for you job! :good:

Update:
For me, everything worked very well, all mode are formidable on my RP1. Doesn't work Slow Motion and Front Cam on Portrait mode, like older version doesn't work too, I do not care about portrait mode on front camera.

Suggestion, if it is not possible to work on Portrait mode in Oreo 8.1, remove the switch button on portrait mode.

I think when the Pie rolls out to us, probrably we will be able to mod this aspect in gcam.

Thanks one more time for you attention with the Razer Phone community.

Anyone mind posting some comparison shots?

works good on stock razer rom

thanks

Great stuff, was hoping someone would do this.

Only things that crash which bother me are Slow motion not working and for some reason when I disable the HDR+ taking photos just does nothing

HomerSp · Dec 18, 2018

I've uploaded version 1.0.1 which fixes some issues I found, as well as working around some of the things you all mentioned. Take a look at the OP for the full changelist and download link.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a good way to completely disable portrait mode for the front camera, but since it doesn't crash when switching to it I didn't find it to be too much of a problem - as you can just press the switch button again.

Enjoy, and do let me know if you spot any more issues.

ChaoticCompound · Dec 18, 2018

Nice one.

Nice to be able to use these features now, Night Sight is surprisingly good.

A shame Slow mo doesn't work but I have a GCmod5 that has working Slow mo.

Difference from stock camera is MASSIVE
See here on for some comparisons

Good news: I've managed to get slow motion mode working on this build and uploaded v1.1.0 with it added back. See OP for the link.

Genius at work! Thanks a lot

-SKYLINE- · Dec 20, 2018

Great work! Really appreciate this!

Only comment is the slow motion seems to have screen flickering (likely due to it being fixed to 60hz but lights are 50hz where I am). Other camera modes will initially flicker but adapt after a second or two. This doesn't happen on the slow motion.

Good job! I am really enjoying it, thanks!!

Still crash on mine

HomerSp · Dec 21, 2018

I've added v1.2.0 to the OP, which fixes an issue where the app would crash when you choose anything other than the default google lib. It's also rebased on the latest BSG build, which adds a new Config option. In addition to that I've ported the changes to TlnNeun's latest build and added that to the OP - so feel free to choose whichever one you fancy!

HomerSp · Dec 22, 2018

In case anyone is wondering, the hack to enable the secondary back camera that works on the Razer Phone 2 unfortunately does not work on this device because the system checks a property to see what apps are allowed to use it (vendor.camera.aux.packagelist) and that is only set to com.razerzone.camera, unlike the Phone 2 which is set to com.razer.camera,org.codeaurora.snapcam,com.razerzone.camera. So until Razer changes this, there's not really a whole lot we can do unfortunately - not that the secondary sensor is really that good anyway.

ChaoticCompound · Dec 23, 2018

Not too worried about the second rear camera.

Is there much difference between all of the different config options?

Unfortunately I'm not too sure what all of the different config options actually do - but I do know that changing what libs it uses can change how the picture looks in HDR+ mode, however, I don't really know in what way. I tend to just leave things on stock settings because I think it looks good enough - way better than the stock razer app anyhow.

Yeah too right, way better than the stock app. Thanks again for this

Thank you so much!
Even night sight works! now I got a really good phone with a really good camera(well its 3am so I only tried really dark scenes

)
first time I booted the app, front camera did not work. when I tried a second time it did!
Amazing job, thanks again. Wish there was a way to get the telephoto to work just for the sake of completeness. I got the phone today..
