NiCkAM8PRO V6.1.1 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/qo7qEU 
Changelog & Suggestions:
This is a small update, hence this particular version iteration. In this release, I have decided to revert back to an 'old' color profile & settings for the 3 back sensors (Main, UW & Tele) that I used to go for in some much older releases. This is more of an experimentation, so that I would know whether I keep this color 'signature' or the previous one from V6.1 for the next updates. Therefore, your feedback is appreciated. Please let me know below which version you prefer regarding colors & saturation.
Cheers!

works great! this is by far one of the best GCAM mods for the oneplus 8 pro........ period!! i will definatly be using this as my main camera app from now on!!
quick question? i noticed on occasion the white balance (especially on front cam) is way off in indoor situations. it requires turning AWB on or off depending on the light conditions.
it seems to be a common issue with the hundreds of different GCAM mods i have tried over the years from ALL developers.
do you think this is a Oneplus code problem or a GCAM code problem?
another bug i noticed. if you turn off HDR+ (haha i know why turn it off?) the images do not save.
Thanks for hunting them! This one has been here for a while and I couldn't find which app value or dev setting caused it. Feel free to tinker with the mod, you might find the culprit. I haven't really spent much time trying to solve this one, as I never use 'No-HDR' mode anyway.
NiCkAM8PRO V6.2 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/jmg1Xt Changelog & Suggestions:
This new update brings some changes and optimizations mostly in the RamPatcher part of the app.
2 XML custom config files are provided in this release: 'DSLR' aims at bringing a more natural, softer and less-sharpened approach to your shots, while still retaining lots of details but in a more subtle and gentler way, while 'SHARP' xml is closer to my previous releases. Those 2 config XMLs may fit different situations / scenarios and preferences, of course. They are both FAST, but you may just activate 'HDR+Enhanced' mode from the Quick-Settings panel if you wish to achieve some higher-quality results, as well as manually increase your Shutter/Exposure time to 1/5s, 1/2s or even 1 second.
Other modifications were done as well, but less noticeable.
Of course, if you don't like this release, simply use any previous version that suits you best...
Enjoy & Cheers!

If you can't access the download website, then your ISP is probably blocking it, for whatever reason. You can find another source for the same APK file here:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-hasli/f/dl11/ (SnapCam version recommended for our device)
NiCkAM8PRO V6.3 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/xMup48 Changelog & Suggestions:
Some adjustments were made in the RamPatcher, and 'DSLR' V6.3 custom profile should now be less 'blurry', with more visible details, while remaining soft and gentle to the eyes. 'SHARP' profile is still there for those who like it. Noise reduction has been very slightly enhanced as well, especially useful for nightshots, but it is still recommended to use either 'Night mode' or 'HDR+Enhanced' in very low-light conditions (you may then need to be steady for a few seconds, as Exposure time has been pre-set to 1/3s in this mode, with 20 frames captured).
Everything is user-adjustable, especially exposure time, which can be quickly accessed by long-pressing the Gallery icon. Same goes for the number of HDR frames, which can be reduced or increased (if you use HDR+Enhanced mode).
If your shots are too bright, make use of the Exposure Compensation function (the 'sun' icon) or simply touch the viewfinder area and manually adjust your exposure using the slider.
Almost everything should work, including front & back video from all sensors. There is still no distortion correction for UW sensor, but this is not something that can be solved on my side, unfortunately. Digital Interpolation ('Res' function) does not work when using Portrait mode as well.
For those with a rooted device / magisk installed (OOS 11/12/13 or custom ROM), you might get some better performance (especially if you get stuck at 1/100s in ZSL mode and wish to get as low as 1/15s) after flashing this magisk module (all credits go to those who developed it, not me):

NiCkAM8PRO V6.4 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/RK2gxM Changelog & Suggestions:
This update brings some adjustments in saturation, gamma and contrasts for back main sensor especially.
'DSLR' profile has been slightly tweaked. It is slightly softer than 'SHARP' profile. The difference is subtle but definitely noticeable.
Few changes in the Dev settings as well, and Audio Zoom has been turned ON by default for videos.
Everything is user-adjustable, especially exposure time, which can be quickly accessed by long-pressing the Gallery icon. Same goes for the number of HDR frames, which can be reduced or increased (if you use HDR+Enhanced mode).

Are the Xml profiles path to: GCam\Configs8 ? Because I don't find the profiles anymore (only ever in the LMC path).
I have also disable the stock cam. I hope it's correct. Thank you

This should be the default Camera App in every custom ROM for the op8p. There's nothing better on the market.
You don't need to disable the stock cam, both can perfectly coexist. All the XMLs for LMC should be in 'LMC8.4' folder, which should be automatically created when you unzip the 'NiCkAM8PRO V6.4 Custom Profiles - LMC V15 GCam (for OnePlus 8 Pro).zip' file.
NiCkAM8PRO V7 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/HEdlCr >>> BIG THANKS TO ARJUN FOR HIS CONTRIBUTION IN THIS RELEASE <<<
Changelog & Suggestions:
This new V7 release brings several improvements in many aspects, such as noticeably lower noise in low-light & night shots (especially in the dark areas of your shots) while retaining lots of details, an optimized balance between Sharp & DSLR custom XML profiles from previous releases, more true-to-life colors in your shots with some nicely adjusted saturation & vibrancy, and lots of adjustments made in the RamPatcher section to get the best of our camera sensors.
No more 'Sharp' & 'DSLR' profiles now, as V7 already brings the best of both. You will now find 'FAST' (instant capture) and 'HQ' (slower but higher quality) profiles.
Everything is user-adjustable, especially exposure time, which can be quickly accessed by long-pressing the Gallery icon. Same goes for the number of HDR frames, which can be reduced or increased (if you use HDR+Enhanced mode).

NiCkAM8PRO V7.1 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/CvE2Zv *** As I am soon switching to the S23U, this might be one of my last releases for the 8 Pro. I will probably continue working on GCam, but for my new device. ***
Changelog & Suggestions:
Plenty of adjustments have been done to bring a more contrasted and authentic signature to your pictures. WB, minimal HDR values, Sharpness and Colors have been tweaked, 'HDR+Enhanced' is now selected by default but speed when capturing shots has been enhanced, especially on main back sensor. 'HDR-Net' icon has been (re)-added to the viewfinder, for instant shots.
Only 1 XML profile is now provided, as you can easily customize it for Speed or Quality depending on your preferences / needs.
Everything is user-adjustable, especially exposure time, which can be quickly accessed by long-pressing the Gallery icon. Same goes for the number of HDR frames, which can be reduced or increased (if you use HDR+Enhanced mode).
>> Use Auto-White Balance (AWB) under artificial lighting or your shots will look under-saturated! <<
If your shots are too bright, make use of the Exposure Compensation function (the 'sun' icon) or simply touch the viewfinder area and manually adjust your exposure using the slider.

Thanks a lot, Surfeur, for all your efforts for our OP8Pro. I can fully understand your plan to move to the S23U. The thought is very tempting... For me as well. May be we will see us again in the S23U-camp...
Thanks again and keep on rockin!
Cheers!
Clark
Thank you so much for your continued support, always greatly appreciated!
After some more testing with v7.1, and depending on the ambient lighting conditions, I was occasionally getting some shots that were a bit too dark (with the 3 back sensors). So here is a variant of V7.1 with some brightness boost. Just copy it into your LMC8.4 folder. Hope it helps!
Thanks first of all for your amazing work!
I feel that pictures are all a bit greyish compared to the vivid (maybe oversaturated, but i like) pictures from other mods. Is thera any tweak to change that in NickAM8 7.1?
Cheers

Hi there,
I don't think there is a way to remove that _lmc_8.4 extension in the finename, unfortunately. This is something on the Dev's side...1Hi guys ! Y'all should try latest BSG 8.7.250 with this config. For me it is the perfect ZSL point and shoot camera app, given I'm running LineageOS 20. -
36Hello OnePlus Addicts,
Here is a Custom-Made SUPER-PACK of some of the newest Google Camera Mods available out there, which contains the work of several developers such as Greatness (Rakin), B-S-G, P.Z.D, MTSL, LMC and Wichaya.
Please, keep in mind that I am not an app developer, myself, just an enthousiastic end-user happy to share the good stuff!
DOWNLOAD (APKs + Custom Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/vnt0xq
[ LMC R15 is currently the latest GCAM Mod included in this Super-Pack ]
>>> The included XML configuration profiles are made for ONEPLUS 8 PRO ONLY! Using them on another device may result in some serious bugs, crashes, and it will definitely not bring you the same user experience... <<<
1) Just download the file above, unzip it (using the provided password), then install the apk file of your choice on your device.
2) Extract the appropriate xml configuration file, as well as its folder, onto your phone internal storage.
3) Then, just start the app, give the necessary privileges, double-click on the lower black area near the 'shutter' button of the app, it should allow you to load custom profiles. Select my xml, press ok, done!
Some of these mods come with Face Detection, Face Retouch (both Front & Back sensors), great color reproduction, low noise, excellent details (especially on the main back sensor), FHD & 4K videos @ 30/60FPS with OIS/EIS stabilization, Night Shots, Astro-Photography, Portrait and more...
However, there is still no Distortion Correction/Fix on Ultra-Wide sensor, on any GCam mod I have tried sor far actually. This might come in the future, but it seems to be quite hard for devs to implement in their respective mods. This can be fixed by some apps in post-editing anyway...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are some 'hidden' shortcuts in some of these GCam mods! For example, with Greatness, P.Z.D, MTSL and LMC, you can access the (very useful) Exposure/ISO menu by long-pressing the circle 'gallery' button on the lower-right of the main app screen, which will provide you with a choice of ISO settings, as well as Exposure choices. The lower the ISO, the better the final picture quality, but it will take more time to 'capture' your image. The same goes for Exposure; the longer the time, the better your image (and the lower iso at the same time), but you may have to be steady if you go lower than 1/10s.
A long-press on the Camera-Switch button (on Greatness Mod), on the lower-left of the main app screen, will directly bring you to the App Settings.
Double-Press the viewfinder itself will zoom 2x to what you want to shoot, and will display the Zoom Bar at the bottom, so you can finely adjust it!
There is also a 'Sunset' shortcut on the main screen/viewfinder (Greatness Mod), just above the 3 back sensors, which should theoretically bring better color reproduction and lighting to your sunsets.
Also, one personal advice when using some, if not all of these mods: You will get BETTER EXPOSURE as well as LIGHTER SHADOWS when selecting your focus zone MANUALLY (within limits of your focus zone of interest, obviously). This goes for Daylight shots, as well as Nightshots, and another advice would be to try to select either a Dark area of your image (when shooting in daylight) OR one of the Brightest zones (for example, some streetlights at night), and then take the shot. The App should then do a better job at adjusting your Exposure, Contrast and Shadows, and this will greatly reduce risks of Under-Exposing or Over-Exposing your shots. When taking snapshots of people, in case the app can't detect their face, make sure you select it manually, you will definitely get brighter, more detailed skin results. It may be one extra-step, but I personally found out that it was usually worth doing!

If you enjoy my work, feel free to say 'Thank you' as well as a 'Thumbs Up', allllwayyys appreciated! ^_^13Well, hello there again
Here is my custom profile (V4.0) for LMC R13 Edition https://ufile.io/oyfwleal (APK + XML)
1) Just download the file above, unzip it, then install the apk file on your device.
2) Extract the xml configuration file, as well as its folder, onto your phone internal storage.
3) Then, just start the app, give the necessary privileges, double-click on the lower black area near the 'shutter' button of the app, it should allow you to load custom profiles. Select my xml, press ok, and voila!
-- XML CHANGELOG --
Lots of improvements and modifications to improve processing speed, quality and reduce noise on different sensors. Some color improvements made on all lenses, especially the IR (ID4), which should now bring very close results to what you see on the viewfinder! Also added some Black & White mode, for those who fancy it.
The XML is set to 'HDR-Net' by default, which means it takes shots instantly (and processes them in a second or two). If you need higher-quality results, just turn it off (using the icon on the left side of the viewfinder) and it will then use 'HDR+Enhanced' mode (15 frames, for good low-light shots especially).
Regarding IR sensor, it uses the real 5 megapixels sensor, so do not expect very high quality shots, especially as we do not have any appropriate noise model in the GCam app yet for it.
-- APP CHANGELOG --
LMC 8.4 Release 13 Fix 2
Added:
• ISO100, Max.Time, Max.ISO in shutter speed selection.
• Session selection for the system (initialization, most likely takes precedence over photo mode, necessary for devices that had to switch mode to activate sessions)
• 6 new sessions at the end of the list, thus adding probably all possible sessions at the moment
Corrections:
• Fixed work Mi12 Ultra
• Slightly changed excerpt code
• Fixes for some devices
'Exposure Compensation' (the 'White Sun' icon on the ViewFinder) is OFF by default. If your shots are too bright, just ENABLE it ('Blue Sun') and the exposure will be lowered.

NiCkAM8PRO V6 (LMC R15 GCam) Custom Pack (APK + Profiles): https://gofile.io/d/H33jkl
Changelog & Suggestions:
There are just too many changes in this new release to keep the previous V5x iteration, so here comes V6, with lots of optimizations and improvements in every app department. It would just take too long to mention every modification done to it, but after hours spent working on this new version, I believe it should bring even better noise reduction, speed and overall image quality (compared to previous release).
This time, only 2 custom XMLs are provided: FAST & HQ! They are mostly similar but 'FAST' brings instant shots (using Zero-Shutter Lag -ZSL- mode by default), very fast processing and 12MP image resolution (about 2-4MB per shot), while 'HQ' comes with HDR+Enhanced by default (with as low as 1/5s Exposure time and 20 HDR frames, so be steady for a second or two if shooting at night / in low light!), increased image resolution (6 to 12MB per shot) and therefore some slightly longer image processing time. JPEG compression is kept at 97% for both profiles, as it is a sweet spot in terms of quality / image size.
You can also use 'FAST' xml and activate 'HDR+Enhanced' function in the Quick Settings panel, which should limit Exposure time to 1/15s, for slightly better quality while remaining fast to shoot & process. This is actually the XML that most people should use, but if for any reason you need to use 'HQ', just make sure you are steady / use some stable surface (or increase Exposure time to 1/10s to 1/13s). However, if you use a tripod or a perfectly stable surface, you can even decrease Expo time to 'Max'...
Everything is user-adjustable, especially the exposure time, which can be quickly accessed with some long-press on the Gallery icon. Same goes for the number of HDR frames, which can be reduced or increased (if you use HDR+Enhanced mode).
If your shots are too bright, make use of the Exposure Compensation function (the 'sun' icon) or simply touch the viewfinder area and manually adjust your exposure using the slider.
Almost everything should work, including front & back video from all sensors. There is still no distortion correction for UW sensor, but this is not something that can be solved on my side, unfortunately.
For those with a rooted device / magisk installed (OOS 11/12/13 or custom ROM), you might get some better performance (especially if you get stuck at 1/100s in ZSL mode and wish to get as low as 1/15s) after flashing this magisk module (all credits go to those who developed it, not me): https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/p/camera-unlocker-oneplus-8-9r/?v1-2
As always, take this new release as it is, or leave it, but please remember this is all done for free, took countless hours of (my) time to create and is in no way made by a team of experienced developers. As for anything in life, there is surely room for improvement, and I strongly encourage users to adapt my work to their liking. Please remember that "if you can't say anything nice about something, just don't say anything at all", or at least try to be nice when reporting bugs or suggestions for improvement. And one last thing: we all have different preferences when it comes to photography.
Have fun with it!
9A tiny little update for 'B.S.G GCam profiles pack' that might fix some noise artefacts in some low-light scenarios. If you are fine with previous V5.1, then it's fine, if not, you could try this one
