Potentially stupid question and apologies if it's been answered already, but is there any way to stop quick measure overwriting lmc when doing updates from the galaxy store?
Done it twice now by accident

Install the aweme version, not the scan 3d.Potentially stupid question and apologies if it's been answered already, but is there any way to stop quick measure overwriting lmc when doing updates from the galaxy store?

Hi,
I am new to this thread. Just installed gcam and using v56. Photos are coming very dark. And manual brightness or focus sliders are not working. Is this normal with this build?

Or where can i try and experiment some version? I haven't dealt with gcam in the last years, so I'm bit out dated EDIT: I RECOMMEND FOLLOWING THIS POST TO INSTALL PROPER GCAM Post in thread 'Working GCAM for S23 Ultra'...

The archive includes configs for regular s23 and ultra, you have applied for regular s23
thanks for pointing that out.
Love this! Thank you. Is there any way of getting Google lens to work as part of the camera? Thanks

I had initially posted that the sharp version does not appear to be sharper but that was probably motion blur. It is marginally sharper if you pixel peep

Not as far as I know. If you find one please share. There is the "Gcam book" in one of the LMC menus and another file floating around the web but both are at best rudimentary.
There are kludgy ways to enable it on LMC and BSG. They are buried in this thread but if you search they should come up.
New camera update is out guys, I just received it today and I think its better. Shutter lag is almost gone, better low light/indoor shots even for zoom lens. The only problem for me is in challenging highlight situation, for example sunlight through window and dimmly lit room, it can get noisy in that case.

12Some sample from my recent trip.
Probably is not the best photo quality on the market, but using the Gcam overall I'm very satisfied of the incredibile versatility.
Plus the device is all around the best you can find.
I did many test gcam 12mpx vs stock 50mpx and 200mpx, and i can say that most of the time high res stock is useless. Details are similar or even better with gcam at 12mpx.
