Ten306 has good settings.

Do don't freeze with HDR we have to tweak the following : on system settings->stream configuration the values of every camera(main, tele, wide, front) and in same system settings-> HDR model.

There must be some combination that doesn't freeze the viewfinder.

On Processing functions->noise model we can put the correct for every sensor.

555imx cstark for main sensor
Hi-847 (S20 FE)for tele
Now for wide it doesnt exist the 258imx but we can use S5K3L6 (S20FE).

On Processing functions->auto white balance I don't know which since they don't have the one for our phone. I put pixel 2.

I'm trying all this on the last LMC8.4_R14
Can you share lmc exact version and xml please i have s21 fe snapdragon

I tryed this version from BigKaka:


with the configuration file for Xperia 1 III and its the first that has HDRnet (not HDR+ or enhanced) active and it doesnt freeze the viewfinder and saves the file.

The problem is that it needs tweaking cause it hasn't got the correct lens settings and it's too wide from beginning on the main sensor.

Try it, tell what u think and if u think we can get something from it.

Generally on BigKaka's versions you can tweak many settings
It is too wide on main sensor as it uses wide one in fact. You can check it by covering it with your finger. Mian sensor is on only in Portrait mode for this setup. Thus we can't say much for HDR+ or Night mode for the main sensor here.

Searched the whole net to gather the following informations : an old Gcam based on V6 that had buffer fix is the only working with no freezing viewfinder and hdr enhanced. So either someone finds a solution or make a magisk mod to fix the buffer freezing or a Gcam modder need to implement the old buffer fix in newer versions. Asked everywhere on telegram and making a mod with buffer fix is very unlikely to happen..

Can you share the old gcam?
Thank you!

It's most probably about the Stream config or the image buffer size. Newer gcams needs that and i don't know how to manually extract the stream. It'll solve the freezing issue once someone gets the stream config For Snap S21 Fe

any hope for snapdragon compatible version?
stock camera on S21 FE is very hit or miss for me, quite inconsistent...
I managed to get aux Working 100% on latest AGC mod with just the right stream config. Samsung is probably using a different stream config for the main that's why it keeps hanging. We need to extract it and i couldn't find out just yet how to do it.

even though this phone was released months ago, it is still very popular in Europe, and I got one few weeks ago... I really hope to find a working GCAM it's such a shame not to be able to use GCAM on this device because the hardware is good and I'm sure results would be great... too bad nobody could solve the viewfinder freezing issue

The results are amazing. I already made xmls with stunning results. The mods can all click pictures if you're fast enough with same results as any other flagship phone. It's just the viewfinder that's freezing after 3 seconds of opening the app or changing between mods. Here's a pic of my dog taken by Shamim's mod.

    Try Parrot043 GCam version if that works without viewfinder freezing.

    Hello there! I am currently using the Exynos version, BSG's GCam seems to be working fine for me, but I cannot seem to enable Telephone 3x cam, can someone help me? it is just blank.
    At this point it doesn't seem to matter which variant you have. There are major differences yes, but the problems seem to be very similar: non working camera interfaces. The difference is that for us, the cameras start but fail after 2 seconds. And for you it doesn't even start.

    Most of us I think have the SNAPDRAGON version and this should be prioritised as this is what GCAM is originally designed for and the easiest to port for. Also, with Samsung previously only USA got Snapdragon , but now Europe got it too, starting with the S20FE and this tradition continued with S21FE. I am so happy to have the Snapdragon version , it was the reason I chose this model. However, the Exynos version is also remarkably great in this series.

    BUt still I am shocked beyond words that there is not a version for Snapdragon S21FE. I mean, GCam is naturally for Snapdragon, this is a new and affordable phone, probably lots of people have it already, WHY is there no GCAM????????????

    Look this tests, i prefer a little bit softer image but with more details.
    The stock camera have a very invasive HDR, create a wider dyanamic range (in this photos can't notice too much because weather it's cloudy)that's ok, sometimes take very nice photo, and sometimes looks too much "oniric".
    The ultrawide havent't the lens correction and create a very ugly distortion,t he zoom interpolation of stock camera it's nice, but too much oversharpen, look the small details in gcam.
    At only 3X in my opinion that's no way for stock camera, gcam it's better.
    I hope someone can will be able to make it work perfectly for the main camera and use the real quality of ours S21 FE.

    Watching...will be returning the S21 FE, the stock camera really produces poor quality shots, colors are over saturated and 3x are blocky :-(

    pretty sad that we don't have a working GCam port for the S21 FE with the Snapdragon SoC.
    I thought this was a popular choice, especially since now you can get if for a low price, and for such a popular phone I would've expected to have a working GCam port asap :)
    anywayz, can't wait for such a version to be posted soon. of course, one that works with all cameras, ESPECIALLY with the main one.
    thanks in advance for anyone providing such a port of GCam for the S21 FE (with SD SoC).
