Any news from porting Gcam to S20 ultra? Thanks!

Doesn`t the normal SD chipset work for everyone not on the exynos chip?
Holding my fingers crossed for a Exynos port of the Gcam for the Ultra. Even with the camera update it seriously smears the texture on photos and have had some horrible portrait photos as a result.
Most annoying part is that if you use the pro mode you get excellent results without any smeared skin tones but using the main camera set on auto without bixby scene detection and 12mp binned photos it sure looks like **** most of the time.

I think Samsung REALLY needs to improve a lot on the camera or it will be the biggest camera failure in the last 10 years....
So unless you mainly post to instagram and actually want to print pictures I suggest you use the 108mp setting and give it a quick sharpening in snapseed (or lightroom for some much needed defringing and sharpening)

So I´m holding out hope for a Gcam port for us stuck with the Exynos chipset that seems to produce slightly worse then the Snapdragon powered Ultra.

Other then that, I love the S20 Ultra and a worthy upgrade from my old S8+

I cant understand. I have oneplus 6.... crapy photie... I gave up and bought S20 Ultra... even crappier photos..... what is going on?????
With gcam one plus 6 photos almost looks great...

Should I sell S20 and buy Xiaom 10?
Hardware in S20 should be much better than in mi 10... but looks like software is crap??

Thank you for suggestions

if you can get snapdragon go for s20 if not just go for oppo xfinder x2 or mi 10 pro if camera is important for you, if you want the best camera go for p40 check dxomark.com for camera rankings although p40 have no google services but can be installed in less than 10 minutes
 
I use ZGCAM vers.917 on my EXYNOS S20 Ultra (XEF) :
-Night mode front and back
-PhotoBooth
-Photo Sphère (bugs sometimes)
-Slow Motion
-Zoom
-Video
-Google Lens
-Portrait (back and Front)
-Panorama
pictures looks better with stock in most of the cases (Night shoots) but with the correct settings i think GCAM will be much better than stock.
with the virus it's hard for me to spend a lot time outside to find the best set up but i think it's a good begining.
I can't share my pictures or setting for the moment( need 10 usefull posts before..)
let me know if you need more details

    I'am Just curious, do you really think these night pictures with zgcam are good? I give you one thing, it's brighter so you can see more. But it's so pumped up in contrast, the pictures are really pale.

    i never said the picture are better with GCAM.
    the colors are more naturals than stock that's all ... and as i told long time before there's no real GCAM version for the new S20 Ultra hardware at this moment so we just need to wait for a correct version:angel:
    this camera is amazing for the moment but Gcam show that samsung can improve the software a lot and the quality can be much better with stock
    look at the raw shot :cool:

    Front canera takes green pictures, garbage

    stock is better for the moment, we need to wait a true version for S20 series.
    but you can set the app for day shots to remove green tint on the front

    It's so underexposed with S20+ Exynos.

    Can you please post your settings, my S20 plus does has greenish tint in the photos and the portrait mode is mostly green

    Hi Depakjan,

    if your photos are green (front camera only in principle ..) it's because your favorite Avengers is "HULK" :laugh: lol
    otherwise in advanced settings; based; Front camera model set as Pixel 3XL

    Does it have the best settings ? I said S20+ Exynos mine.
    For back and front camera*

    unfortunatly i have the s20 ULTRA but your settings are close to S10 note ,than you can easilly use the settingrs of the S10 NOTE to start :

    And adapt to your needs: (day or night shots) and launch the .XML for each use. for the moment with the virus, I only have functional set for night photos (see examples)
