Hi Marko! Following are my observations -
  • Using the latest APK by Tolyan (MGC_5.3.015_B-S-G-based_v.1.0.9_fix_TlnNeun.apk) - Without the modified camera libraries module (i.e. with the stock/untouched camera libraries from OOS OB17), front camera capture doesn't work at all during HDR and portrait mode (pink lines across the whole photo), back camera works fine with HDR and portrait mode (but images have very few dots, barely visible, but still there)
  • Using the Pixel2Mod APK by you (GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.1.apk) - Without the modified camera libraries module (i.e. with the stock/untouched camera libraries from OOS OB17), front camera capture doesn't work at all during HDR and portrait mode (pink lines across the whole photo), back camera works fine only after enabling the setting to remove pink tint with HDR and portrait mode (but images have very few dots, barely visible, but still there)
  • Using the Pixel2Mod APK by you (GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.1.apk) - With the modified camera libraries module that you sent for testing, the app crashes instantly after opening. I captured a log of the crash (tried two times, crashed both times) and am attaching the same here for you reference.
Hope the above proves to be helpful to narrowing down on the issue! :)
Sorry for my previous message, Oneplus did not correct the front hdr+, Can be a little tired....
I made a file error with a HAL custom that doesn't work....

No problem at all! I've replied to you in PM with a new log for Google Camera crashes with the new modules that you sent me. Please have a look whenever you can. Thank you, as always, and a good day to you! :)

Using the stock/untouched OOS 5.1.5 I notice, however, a dark vignette in every photo using every version higher than "GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-v7Beta-Test-9" ... :(

Is this something @Arnova8G2 is willing to address for the non-rooted users?

Thanks a lot for you work!

Unfortunately there haven't been any reports of this dark vignette that you're talking about by anyone else, so I doubt it can be worked upon (provided it is not just an issue with your setup).

If you're unrooted, I recommend installing Arnova8G2's Pixel2Mod v8.1 (direct link here) and using it, making sure that the option to remove the pink tint is on under Settings --> Advanced --> Fix Camera API2 --> Remove pink tint on all camera. This will fix back camera's HDR capture if you're unrooted. Good luck! :good:

Actually I have dark vignette at the edges as well with rooted OOS 5.1.5, dot fix, and gcam v8.1.

is quite noticeable and I've heard another user complaining about this. Sadly the 8.1 also has the same dark vignette problem for me. .. As for know the latest version that hasn't this problem is 7-beta 9.

Gcam w/o play services

Hello all,

Does anyone have any idea how one can get Gcam into work without google play services installed? all give a FC. The apk from play store works without services but is not modded.

When I take videos, regardless of 30FPS or 60FPS, the videos are zoomed in ann the image is distorted. It looks elongated. I disabled video stablilization as well so not sure why it's still doing that. Also taking photos with flash results in a purple photo. I checked @shadowstep's summary post but I didn't see an answer there.

Anyone know why having lib fix installed causes the "double tap power button to open camera", to revert back to opening stock camera app instead of gcam, works fine for a little while then starts opening stock camera app, uninstall lib fix and then it will open gcam

Always defaulted to stock cam for me after the first reboot. I don't think the lib fix has anything to do with that. It's just how oxygen is is designed to work.

Hi everyone - updated my summary post. :) Changes include:
  • New Magisk modules and Treble/non-Treble TWRP flashable zips (updated to include the camera HAL from OOS OB17/15 for OP5/T)
  • Stock OOS camera's front portrait mode doesn't break anymore and works alongside Google Camera -- thanks to @MrAimenify for figuring out the hex edits for this!
