if you make such tweaks to your recommended defaults, might I suggest updating the OP and maybe put a last revision date? That way I can tell "oh, he updated them 3 days ago from the values from 2 weeks ago." I wouldn't think you'd need a changelog or something- just a last revised date :)

To those still suffering from green pink tints, i have no idea what it is caused by since it also happens to mine, but very rarely, it seems like something weird is going on with either the wb or the blacklevel settings on every gcam i tried, since the stock camera isnt exhibiting these issues.

First off, I would like to thank you for this camera mod and settings! Question: will the zooming in when turning on video stabilization be fixed in an upcoming build?

edit: do I leave the MaxOffset Black level as 0?

New tolyan update, nothing really changed except some menus, slow-motion still crashes and 1080/60 still has eis bug.

Edit #1: this version doesnt work on my phone for some reason, it doesnt save any pictures or gets stuck in infinite hdr processing loop so, i cant really say anything about this new build https://streamable.com/yxujn.

I recall with some of the earlier builds, the pink tint would happen on the initial shot but not subsequent ones. I know it's not exactly a fix but perhaps something to test.

Yes this is true but on those blacklevel settings it happened randomly, theres a reason i chose tolyans build instead of arthurs excluding the old gcam difference and thats due to dynamic black level adjustment chained to iso.

Here if u want to see my attempts at using those blacklevel numbers https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77241235&postcount=951.

This tinting issue isn't only related to tolyans build, even artz gcam which has spot on blacklevels exhibits this issue, heres an example for proof https://i.imgur.com/WX8TAfB.jpg
I think it is regularily referred to as amp glow, it's an inherent problem of Gcam ports no matter which device you are using. Only solution at the moment is to take multiple pictures.

I installed the suggested build and it will crash repeatedly. I managed to take a single picture before changing the settings but once I went into the menu and clicked settings it crashed and would crash again if I opened the app.

I've reinstalled and I still ha e the same problem. This is on 8.1

I am experiencing a strange issue: some of the pictures taken are not recorded on the sd using MGC__5.3.015_ Version 1.0.7
Go back to 1.0.5, there are some bugs in the bsg Port.

Thanks for the heads up!
