Quick question
I know that this creates a new camera app
So if it doesn't work. I just delete the app, use the default camera app and nothing happened?

Correct. Camera NX does not replace the stock Google Camera app. It has a different package name and is recognized as a completely different app by Android. You should be able to uninstall it like any other app and continue using the stock camera app. I have both of them installed and can use them both.

This is really just wonderful and working flawlessly on my 2016 Pixel.

I had one minor question - is there any way to prevent each portrait shot from creating a new directory folder? It's a small price to pay, but if there was a solution to this it'd be great. I guess this is the way it's done on the Pixel 2 stock camera as well? Seems like an odd choice, but as I said not a big deal. Thanks!

Ok bit of feedback.
I have a n5X :)
First installed the app without the mod for the 60fps.
After installed the mod, still no 60fps. I had to manually switch to 30fps and again to 60fps to get video with "slow motion enabled"
Now the thing I don't get, files are huge (12Mb instead of 1,6Mb for 3s videos) BUT if I check properties of the files.. they are still in 30fps.
Did I missed something? -.-'

This does not work on my phone with lineage-14.1-20180122-nightly-bullhead-signed, tried both camera_nx_v7.1_ZSL-signed and camera_nx_v7.1_NOZSL-signed, they just crash at launch, NOZSL i got to work a few times but had to turn off HDR+ otherwise it did not take any photo, but suddenly the app did not start anymore.

I did a complete fresh install of the rom today and installed the camera app.
used open_gapps-arm64-7.1-pico-20180125 if that is to any help.

Did you try version 7.3.1? This is the link given at OP, the one that works for 7.1.x is the download link that says "fixed wrong api level". It works here, using a custom ROM based on Android 7.1.2.

    Camera NX, aka Google Camera mod with Face retouch, Motion photo, Smart burst, 240FPS slow motion and ZSL / 6P HDR+ for Nexus 5X & 6P.

    *You can enable EIS for camcorder by add two lines in the /system/build.prop file.

    Code:
    persist.camera.eis.enable=1
    persist.camera.is_mode=4

    Last update: 2018/03/24
    Version: v7.4


    App info
    Installed as Camera NX, no need to disable the stock camera.
    Package name: com.google.android.GoogleCameraNX1
    Require:
    V5.5+, Android 7.1+, ARM 64.
    V5.4 and under, Android 7.0+, ARM 64. ( currently, V5.5+ will only works on 7.1.1 DP1 , 7.1 custom rom users can find solution below. Android 7.0 users please choose the No ZSL version )
    Shortcuts required Android 7.1

    To 6P user: App will function the same as original G camera, add Hybrid burst, higher video bitrate.

    Bugs:

    -ZSL-enhanced: After shooting photos, review it and you will see a black screen not pictures review, need to wait for HDR+ process .

    Old version (V5.5-):
    - No bugs with Android 7.1 ( If you are using V4, the flash won'r fire in HDR+ Auto mode, need to set it on manually. )
    - As the Camera 4.2+ using some code within Android 7.1 kernel, some bugs may appeared when running with Android 7.0, custom kernel may cause this too but I'm not sure:
    1. Flash mode with HDR off seems broken. (Android 7.0)
    2. Auto HDR+ with manual exposure / AF/AE lock can't take a picture, you need to set HDR+ on or off when using manual exposure and AF/AE lock. (Android 7.0)


    * Still working on the 1080p 60fps, experiment succeed with
    60FPS video recording succeed with How to fix black viewer in some custom roms for Nexus 5X. ( 7.1 / CM14.1 )

    1. Put this file in /System/framework/, set its permission to rw-r-r.
    View attachment com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.jar

    2. Put this file to /System/etc/permission/ set its permission to rw-r-r.
    View attachment com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.xml

    3. Reboot your phone to test.

    03/24/2018 V7.4
    Base on Google Camera 5.2
    1. Bring back HDR+ on Nexus 5X/6P.
    2. Add Lens Blur mode.
    3. EIS should be back to normal on Pixel 1, as EIS will be disabled with 4K quality with official version.
    4. Active Google photos combination to view results again on enhanced version.
    [URL="https://chromloop.com/2018/03/apk-camera-nx-7-4-base-google-camera-5-2-features-bring-back-hdr-nexus2015/"]Details and download link for V7.4

    12/31/2017 V7.3
    Current the new version is only for Android 8.0+, will release the updated version for Android 7.0.
    1. Add the most wanted feature, Portrait mode (use Pixel 2's front lens software method, it needs a human face shows up to work.).
    2. Remove silence feedback service, crash report service, and the broken Help menu, for faster app launch.
    3. Remove Google photos combination, motion photo still works but you need to view it through Google photos manually.
    I have named it wrong and this one should be the ZSL-enhanced version, sorry for the wrong package errors on Android 7.1.2 :eek:
    Details and download link for V7.3

    Update 11/06/2017 V7.2.0
    This is bug fix version, not only for Pixel 2016, everyone who are using enhanced version should grab this update.
    1. Fix crash issue on Pixel 2016.
    2. Fix provider author name mistake lead to a thumbnail generation issue.
    3. Motion pictures should be saved with file name "MVIMG-####-##" right now, it became "IMG-####-##" in V7.1 version, which was wrong, this might mess the G photos when index media files.
    Enhanced version users should get the experimental2017 library now.
    Sorry, after some more test it seems experimental2017 is not necessary, just install the new version it will be ok.
    About the Lens-blur photo editor, it will be available after the picture upload to Google cloud.
