Redmi note 9，GCAM dedicated

[HemanthJabalpuri]

@czghzh
I am new to GCam.
Are we required root to use this app?
If yes, then place [ROOT] in this thread title to easily understand.
Thank you.

 

[kassiopeia]

thanks you! Im going to try it , hoping for astrophotography mode

Doesn't work on mine... Every step is done, but it opens seems to work fine, but then I want to switch the mode or press on record. Boom, hung up! Could it be, because the Redmi Note 9 has a MediaTek Chip and not a Snapdragon chip? I've heard, that the MediaTek chips are more problematic than the Snapdragon one's. Because Xiaomi.eu-ROM doesn't work aswell, because it's MediaTek. But I don't know...

in OP is only gcam v6, anyone try gcam v7?

Tried wycrozen 7.3 on celsoazevedo,using OP's configs. Very laggy and buggy. Both recording and capturing with HDR. Not recommended.

Gcam6 is unfortunately the only mod that currently works stable on Note 9 MTK.

Has anyone tried this version made for Redmi 10x? https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1344/

Thanks, it's the best one I've tested!

@AlmostIdiot
Hope you enjoy it, you could try different AWB settings based on your liking and preferences.
Maybe the colour producing is a bit too saturated for you.

It's just based on my personal like to see bit more saturated colours.

I find the color reproduction very accurate, other configs I tried resulted in blown out colors and some pictures were too exposed, so details got lost. I'm truly thankful, it's great!

Edit: forgot to add, you can activate the cameras by going into advanced camera settings, then "auxiliary cameras" and checking the boxes for camera 1x (normal wide camera), 2x (ultrawide) and 3x (macro). I changed the icons to know which one to use. View attachment 5143827

@AlmostIdiot
You sure the aux setup isn't loaded?
I already saved the parameters for aux,
Maybe the xml missing to save some data.

Sorry, I didn't see version 1.9a. Are you sure that the fourth lens is for macro? I think it's the depth of view sensor for portrait photos.

 

[kevin168]

@AlmostIdiot
Screenshot above is from version 1.9
I use fourth lens for macro, but i changed camera id 3

In 1.9a i use the default as it is
0 = Main Back
1 = Front
2 = Ultra Wide
3 = Macro
4 = Depth
