The right amount of hdr + frames would be 24. Obviously everything depends on how long you have the patience to wait for the processing and its timing. 15 are very fast, 24 optimal, 36 more detail but slower ... You can try the various settings and choose the one that gives us the compromise we like. Furthermore, once you have found the compromise, you can save your own xml and keep the same one in the folder you started from so as to have one for quick shots and one with long processing times for when we want to dedicate more time to particular photos. For videos now better to use the stock. The gcam do not give more quality than the latter and do not have the stabilization that the xiaomi camera has. For selfies, it's all about how we want them. If we want them detailed and sharp, for example they could be useful when using them to take a group photo in which we are also in the corner, or if you want them soft that is when it is our only face in the frame. In the first case, the Falcon is fine. In the second I use the stock ...



I take this opportunity to attach some macros made with the main camera in focus slider mode on the ngcam 1.8. Crop, rotate and edit with mobile lightroom.
Amazing photos!

Any GCam version with good video record support? Seems the stock camera app does the best work on this so far.
There is still no gcam that has stabilization at the level of the stock camera.

You can use an app like Device Info HW+ , often times it will tell you what the hardware is reporting as
I did not understand why, but on my phone hwinfo freezes to the point of having to restart it to be able to use touch again

Nice work, good results with medium sharpness xml with hdr+ frames set to 7 (default 24). Selfie results are much improved.
Thanks...

It applies to everyone! My xml are not law! They are a starting point for all of you to adjust the settings to how they are closest to your visual taste! You have chosen the right way you have adapted the settings to how you like them.

What do you mean by freeze? Crashing the interface or photo processing? If it is the first try to see if by chance the opengl has been activated in the experimental settings. If it is the latter some other users have found, which I had not done, strangely after loading the xml the noise modelers activated in device model settings. If so, try to disable them all ..

It is not crashing neither it is processing because greyed out screen with cycle (which is not moving around like in processing) appears sometimes for few seconds even when I didn't take any pictures.In experimental section everything is off except to save logs what I guess is good and not creating this problem of freezing.The only thing you mentioned was on is Noise Modler for ultra wide camera.I disabled it and will report later

For admin.

I am posting some xml for ngcam on this generic xda thread. I had tried to create my own specific one for that gcam so as to have the possibility of temporal indexes. They closed it for me by saying that the other already existed. Too bad that in the other to have updated XML you have to read hundreds of posts and find the right one ...?*♂
Sometimes too many rules imposed by inflexible admin do not help users and if users are not helped they go to other ways and places. You can't hope they'll stay on a thread where it's hard to get help. For the gcam on a device if you really want to keep it you have to create a discussion in which in the first post you have updatable references on the various versions and various xml.

For all that said above forgive me but I no longer find it useful to post my possible help here ...

You defenetly will be missed here.You were doing good job.Thank you.
Thanks yanikan.

I have always tried to share, not only the XML, but also the way to set to those who asked me for information on how to do it yourself. But in this way it becomes too confusing and becomes almost useless because those who enter for the first time have to read an entire discussion to get a minimum sense of the current situation at the time they are looking.

Please start a new thread and share the XML and information

Thanks for your efforts
