Hey guys, I have Xiaomi 13, I tried some gcam mod apps but in every version I'm getting crash at the opening.
A crash log for the last v11 BSC version is attached.

Hi people,
I'm also looking for a working version of GCAM for the Xiaomi 13 (fuxi), I'm quite surprised that I haven't come across any comprehensive thread yet that addresses this. Or there was even an XML config for this model.
From my own testing, I can write about the functioning of these versions:

Tested on Xiaomi 13 (fuxi), MIUI Global 14.0.22.0 TMCEUXM, Android 13 TKQ1.220905.001
Camera2 API export for Xiaomi 13 (fuxi)

BSG's MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV2b
- tested, works, all lenses work - front, back, wide angle and tele (although the zoom in the app shows a value of 2.8x max, the zoom is the same as in the stock xiaomi cam app which is 3.2x - native Xiaomi cam app has 0.6x 1x 2x 3.2x modes)

BSG's MGC_8.8.224_A11_V9
- crash on run


Arnova8G2's Gcam-8.7.250.build-8.3
- tested, works, but first you have to disable (all three) options ".topshot_fast_moments_hdr" in developer settings
- still there is problem with lens mode switching - it shows nonsensical lens values and doesn't work properly


BigKaka's AGC_8.7.250_V6.0, AGC_8.4.300_V9.7, AGC8.8.224_V1.0
- tested, works, all lenses work
- when you turn on the "LEICA" function and the zoom is set to 1x, there is a gray veil over half of the display

- crashes when switching to video mode

Shamim's SGCAM_8.8.224.10_STABLE_V9
- tested, works, all lenses work
- crashes when switching to video mode

- all lenses work (front, back, wide angle) including zoom (although the zoom in the app shows a value of 2.8 max, the zoom is the same as in the native xiaomi cam app which is 3.2)
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/f/dl88/
All higher versions of BSG's MGC i.e. 8.4 8.5 8.6 8.7 and 8.8 will crash right after launch.

Shamim's SGCAM_8.8.224.10_STABLE_V9
- all lenses and functions work, but app crashes when switching to video mode

BigKaka's AGC_8.7.250_V6.0 and AGC_8.4.300_V9.7
- all lenses and functions work, but app crashes when switching to video mode
- when the "LEICA" function is turned on and the zoom is set to 1x, a gray transparent "filter" is drawn across the display, from the middle up

Arnova8G2 (Beta) Gcam-8.7.250.build-8.2Beta2.230525.1946

I've only tested the versions by BSG, BigKaka and Shamim - so if I'm talking about these three developers and specifically mentioned versions - then in my given configuration only BSG's version MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV2b is fully functional.
I am communicating with the developer Shami, hopefully he will be able to solve the problem of the app crashing when switching to video mode.

MGC_8.7.250_A11_V11 from BSG is working great!
Quality of photos is awesome despite no config file. Sharpness is as good as stock camera. Colors fidelity is better than stock camera (especially for green tones).

Edit 1: Seems to work on eu rom only. Thanks to @opponent for feedback.
Edit 2: Front camera doesn't work for selfies. Thanks to @darki- for feedback.

    Tested and working with Xiaomi 13, but have to disable all three options "topshot_fast_moments_hdr" in developer options! Big thanks to Arnova8G2 developer! :)(y)
    EDIT: still there is problem with lens mode switching...

    Finally, MGC_8.7.250_A11_V11 from BSG is working great for photos and for videos for all lenses 😁

    Edit 1: For working front camera for photos, just ensure to perform the switch from ultrawide or tele back lens to front lens and not from wide lens to to front lens (so it's just a minor bug...). Knowing this, this version is fully operational.

    Edit 2: MGC_8.7.250_A11_V15a has not this bug but does not work for videos.

    Tested on MIUI 14 eu (stable)

    Hi there,
    I found this and it works with custom config and library.
