GCam for S9

[mweinbach]

So I was looking through all the current GCam builds, by that I mean all those modded ones, and I think I found the best one for Snapdragon phones. https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/cstark27_GCam_5.1.018_24_v3.6.apk

The Pixel2Mod one is the best, but requires a device whitelist to work. So, you know, it takes time.
@Arnova8G2 could you please add starqlte, starlte, star2qlte and star2lte
I think those are correct.

The one you posted crashes completely on my S9 Snapdragon. It works on yours? It won't go anywhere past accepting permissions.

The one I have that works is named gcam_5.1.018.177470874.41362666_SG7Exy_V8.2.apk. Looks like it's for an Exynos, but at least it runs.

I did a quick spin around looking for Gcam.... man, there are a lot of options! (and opinions)

This thread here has a 'stable' one with HDR+. And an additional one which is the 'best' for portrait.

The v8.2 one I referred to specifically is from the S7 forums, here:

I just installed a few but haven't had any opportunity to really test them out much. Phone is not my daily driver (yet?).

I installed one that is working but makes the phone very hot. Uninstalled it with away.

Odd this doesn't work on my S9+. Wonder if the telephoto lens is screwing it up? Is everything working for you including portrait? So far the only thing I see wrong with Samsung's stock app is in low light, it gives off reddish tint.

this INSTANT crashes on the S9+. It also crashes my phone. I am not sure why.

So it works on s9 but not s9+ for you too? @mweinbach. Check my gcam thread for s9+... also pm me your google hangouts ID if you have one

Hope someone ports it soon. I loved the GCAM on my note8. Sold it and bought the S9 thinking that the GCAM port would work on this too. Samsung stock camera is nowhere near the colors and the dynamic range of the GCAM.

Mem leak. The app is highly alpha.

I don't think its a mem leak as it shouldn't instantly crash both the app and phone

Did u get my message? The miniuser work but is heavily tinted in various condition, especially day light it goes blue. I was able to fix white balance settings to take great pictures in low ambient lighting.

I will try it
