GCam for Poco X3

[The Mero]

Why are you compressing pictures when showing photo results?

slow upload speed maybe or is it the site itself ?

 

[J-Mizzle]

There are many gcams with all lenses working, but for best pictures only main sensor is worth using. Rest is just marketing. Why would one use worse lense instead of better one? I.e. Gcam 7.4 nikita or ultra cvm gcam 8.1 all lenses are working.

I'm well aware there are gcam ports with all working lenses but those require gapps or micro-g to work. That was my point.

Arnova gcam v6 stable. Based on google camera 8.1.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-arnova8g2s-google-camera-port.3862448/post-84161065

In this new features added.

First load xml.

Custom libraries can be added. These are loaded from the setting:
Advanced/Custom libs config.
For load tap on "Select lib" and search the file with the extension .so in the folder where you placed it,

drag it back into the settings and select it from the option "Set Custom lib".

This is link of many libraries. https://mega.nz/folder/yiIiHBbT#KaSvzRngnzPJrZa5ArEE_Q

II used Ultra_AI.so whit xml on attachement but even without changing xml, you can upload and testing all of them so as to choose the one that best matches your personal tastes.

How to add custom lib? I have downloaded Ultra_ai.so. Downloaded the apk from your link. In advanced settings i can't find any custom lib config. Loaded the xml from the post link file named "pixel5.xml"

Hey,

so i tried latest parot (just got released), nikita (could not find how to add lib), arnova (with and without lib) and bsg.

Just tested on a simple plain photo on the same object.

Bsg had the best quality of them all.
Nikita 2nd.

Compare with Nikita's 7.4 with surferbyter's xml and you may get even better results.

Copy custom libs on same path of xml and select on advanced/custom libs config/select lib

I think you have shared wrong link on your previous post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gcam-for-poco-x3.4164397/post-84771277) You said stable arnova gcam but the link takes to a beta release post. I downloaded the apk from that link so it is the beta apk but the screenshot you've share in this post is maybe stable apk

Just did.

BSG still seems better to me.

Can i get some opinions please?

IMG (left one) is nikita with the above xml.
PXL (right one) is BSG.

Xda compresses them a bit.

Real sizes in device:
Nikita - 5.7mb
Bsg - 3.4mb

Left one looks better to me.

One observation: none of the gcam mods let you reduce the image size to 2MP. Why do you need such a large image just to watch on a phone screen? Even on a pc screen it's an overkill. Anything over 2MP is mostly for cropping or poster printing.

One basic question: what are and what do the libraries you talk about do? I only installed apk and added the xml but I never heard about those libraries before.

Indeed, I knew that there was an option for that, but I have not looked into it and know nothing about it.

@vanpoko Have you played around with Custom Libs?

I'm on NGCam 7.4 v2.0 Final with @vanpoko's latest XML files (main + optional) and did not install any additional libs (yet).

In Settings >> Lib Patcher >> Custom Lib I can find the following:

• Google (selected by default or by @vanpoko's XML config?)
• NGCam
• NR57W15T17 (User_X)
• Alice (r0m10)

So what's up with this?

Download of this link. Try Snapcam version.

So what's up with this?

In NGcam 2.0 those 4 libraries are installed with the apk, you can try them and they'll give you different processing in the final picture; by default is the Google one but if you find better results with another you can leave it selected. In the new Arnova mod there's this new option to load external libraries; surferbyter posted a package of libraries and they are very easy to load and change and test how the results are.

Update xml.

Fixed sharpness and noise on wide.

Fixed results in front photos for softer selfies.


Clear data and cache, load xml, load and activate custom library Ultra_AI.so

This is link of many libraries. https://mega.nz/folder/yiIiHBbT#KaSvzRngnzPJrZa5ArEE_Q

All this needs now is working selfie video. I mean it's one of the most basic things

 

[Howell]

I have to test all but this is hard to keep the pace with so many versions with many Devs and many XML configs...
By the way, here are the links to ArnovaG2 versions:
Stables : https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/
Betas : https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2-beta/

To make the video work on the front camera just change the Configs stream on the main momentarily. Unfortunately, the EISV2 for now can only be set on one of the two because if it is set on the main they do not go or video on the front, but the video stabilizations in the first work well only with that Configs stream. Waiting for fixes that will come in the next versions.

Have you successfully tried using this?
