Nokia 8 Sirocco Google Cam mod not working after Andriod 10 update - Nokia 8 Sirocco Questions & Answers

Hi All,
Phone : Nokia 8 Sirocco
I used to have a working Google cam mod on my phone until the Andriod 10. Now none of the mods I install works! It just crashes.
Does anyone know which works on this!?

Yes, me too... Please, help !
With killercam v1, just video work...

HAL3 is disabled
Hello,
It seems that HAL3 support for Camera is missing from the Android 10 build. I've send an email to Nokia support today. Until it is fixed, and you(generally speaking) are still on Android 9, and use Gcam mod, stay away from the update.

I hope problem with GCam will be resolved soon.

They disabled Raw with this Android 10 update.
We paid premium so we could have less quality camera, and camera app options than mid-range Nokia's ?
Remember, no Lightroom raw capture and edit possible either.

Same here, I have tried lots of Gcams and all not working, except the stock one from Play Store, but are missing important feature like night mode....

Thank you, work prefect

The posted solution results in a working GCam but I would not agree that HDR works. Yes, the menu is active and you can toggle the feature on but there is no difference in the photos at all (at least to my eye). I suppose that the app is taking normal snaps without HDR, regardless of the chosen mode.

I guess the only way is to root the phone and enable Camera2 API. (HAL3) .

I really hope MHD fixes it, if not, it was my last Nokia. I understand if you have to root a budget phone. But if I pay close to premium price, I also expect the software to work, without me touching it.
No HDR, broken glance screen, broken play store, increased battery drainage, worse wifi connection. It went from a phone I was really happy with, to a phone that pisses me off every day.
Rant end. Thanks for the suggestion but I'm gonna wait. Have a nice day!

I contacted them and said that would raise the issue further , but needs more users to complain to them in order to fix this.
First picture is Sirocco and second is 7 Plus both on Android 10,where on Sirocco RAW capture is disabled and enabled on 7 Plus.

I also asked, and the German Nokia support said that they are aware of the issue and would try to get it sorted out with another security update as quickly as possible

I wanna know the method you used to unlock it ?
I am gonna try to enable the RAW Capture

I have unlocked it through Hikari Calyx. I have paid 9$ (41 Ron). He accessed my PC through Team Viewer and used a virtual USB to attach a smartcard. With that he reflashed my phone with android 9 (but you can choose 8 also) and unlocked the BL.
Everything was done within 24 hours.
This was my first phone with a unlockable BL and i have missed a lot having root on my phone. Now with root is like i'm having a new phone
P.s. : After unlocking the BL you can OTA upgrade to 10 if you wish but i do not see the reason. 9 has everything and none of the issues of 10.
With 10 google disabled ACR functionality.
HDR api disabled by HMB
Huge battery drain (do not know the reason)
A2dp issues
Etc..
Although with root you can fix all the issues i rather not have them in the first place. Therefore i will stay on 9 at least until a good stable 10 comes out of HMD global.

[Q] Cyanogenmod and the IncS camera lag

I've run a search and can't find a concrete IncS specific (or otherwise Sense related) answer.
I went about installing Cyanogenmod 7 on my Incredible S and it worked wonderfully save for the camera application. The refresh rate on the preview was horribly low and there was significant lag compared to while on Sense.
I'm aware that the Sense apk cannot be used on non-Sense ROMs. I'm curious to know what other IncS owners running Cyanogenmod 7 do in regard to camera functionality. I've since hopped back over to Virtuous but would like to use Cyanogenmod again if I could sort out the camera issue.
Thanks guys.
There is a miui camera that significantly improves the camera functionality.
I posted it in general, in the cm7.thread in here

I've been trying to fix this for a while and have found no solution. MIUI camera, FX camera, and Tiny Photo are are a few options (but I agree about MIUI - doesn't fix anything).
Question - do you find when you're taking a picture from a different app it works ok? When I use the camera app I get the noise, but if I use WhatsApp for instance take a picture and attach is, I find there's no noise.
I don't think the stock cyanogenmod camera is setting the iso properly, I've tried it on auto, and on every other setting, but the resulting photos all seem to come out the same, with lots of noise.

It works better in certain situations for some reason. Sometimes lots of grain, sometimes none. But my main point is - it doesn't compare to Sense in any way, from quality to UI and back..a lot of room for improvement
This problem had been discussed over and over again. The only way to fix it is to find someone with knowledge in programming and digital camera programming to decipher the code in the sense version of the camera software.
Well I just got back from my international holiday trip and not totally impressed
The phone worked fine with the international sim card, hate that I can't see what's downloading in the background (google sync, android stuff), because my credit was running out fast and all I used was facebook which was free on the carrier. (social networking)
Also, camera took quite good photos but not as good as the sense. I love how it did widescreen photos rather than just a box size. Also I found my battery died a lot when I wanted to use it.. sitting by the pool and surfing facebook for 1h would use about half the battery. and can't put tiamat on my phone either.
so right now my phone is just sitting in my drawer, because my family member gave me their old iphone and find it more reliable for the time being
I just can't get used to android after having it for over a month, must just be me. I'm not giving up though. Maybe next step is to try another ROM.
Why didn't you turn off data and auto sync?
You seem like the iPhone type lol

An hour of constant internet for me uses 15 percent battery approximately. (screen on the entire time)
I consider that pretty good

I suppose that rules out Cyanogenmod for us lest we cripple the camera function?

Well, I had an international sim with internet so no reason to turn off data, and would prefer auto sync the same as back home. everything was off except facebook updates.
Also on cyanogenmod, camera is good and clear but doesn't go in widescreen like stock ROM does (I really want to go back to stock but i cant ) and no photo editing effects built in on cyanogenmod. hmm.

My miui camera went nuts today. I can only see the image on half of the screen while taking pictures. It's like the menu area is unwilling to release its reserved screen area.

[No Root]Stock Camera apps ported from other devices

This is one of the best phone for its price (for the price i got it tho) but one of the only cons of this phone is the plain camera app. The camera is itself good but the camera app is not upto the mark. Its simple but not great so I tried to search for stock camera apps from other phones and try it on k10. I myself did not port any of these because i haven't rooted it yet and so porting is difficult without rooting.

Sorry for coming back to you really late as I didn't receive any reply email, (maybe I missed it or I might have it turned off). Lg phones have touch assistant too, go to the accessability tab in settings or maybe pressing home button 3 times would ask to enable touch assistant. But if you want the MIUI one, unfortunately the only ik atm requires a rooted phone, so I have to look into for a non rooted one. Meanwhile you you can use apps like easytouch from play store. Hope you already have your problem solved

So you have a rooted phone? Well thank you but I don't like to be credited for what I haven't done. I have already mentioned somewhere in the thread that I myself didn't port these apps as I don't have my phone phone rooted, I came from Samsung which isn't a mess to root and recover as compared to what I researched on lg. I try them on my phone, troubleshoot em, seeing if there is any issue with the app. Try different things with the apps, look into em and stuff. But I didn't port any of em completely. But back to the topic, if you have rooted device, I guess there is a way to get the MIUI touch assistant

just need to know should i need to place the other arm folder somewhere or not as i cant find the document scan option within the camera app after updating and it says in the more tab that its already downloaded

its simple dont panic, just go toCamera app info and click the 3 dots in the top right corner, then click unistalls app updates, and its back to the older version.
Can anyone please tell me what's the difference between the current ( EMUI 9.1) camera version and this one? Does it offer 50x zo etc?
Only 10x zoom max with last fw. Apparently they only let the same camera do 30x zoom on the Mate 20 series. Probably artificial limitation to make the newer phone more appealing...
Someone knows what's more in the version 9.1.0.319 and 9.1.0.323
I'm in 9.1.328 os version and I have the 318 camera version.
Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
Need to tell you all I`ve got CLT-L29 with 9.1.0.328 - and the camera got Terrible! Night-mode is atrocious, and day-time shooting worsened. Night mode now makes flat, ugly, no-life-basic photos (doesn`t matter if vivid or whatever colour mode is used), day-time pictures are dark, with worse dynamic range then before. I tried everything to go back to previous version - not possible in my experience. If anyone succeeded in downgrading the camera app version, or installing an older one, PLEASE let me know how. My phone is not rooted - cant find a way to unlock the bootloader. (I read about a possible way with disassembling the phone, but I wouldn`t do that to it).
Cheers,
P.S. - If you have a P20 Pro with older android version - do not update! - it will destroy your camera (basically the only thing you bought the phone for).
I have no issue with 328 firmware emui 9.1 and the cam, how I am in 345 firmware with a new version of camera app, working fine, you can make a factory reset or simply reset the camera app settings

You haven`t noticed. They made it gradually worse - with 8.1 it was so much better in regards of color depth, dynamic range, contrast setting, night mode contrast, light sensitivity - everything, by the time they made 9.1... it is nothing of the kind. BTW this issue is noted, A1 representative I spoke to, said Huawei were "aware" of the night-mode problem, and "wold fix it" in the next generation of updates. But I as a very keen photo-maniac, who bought this phone precisely for the camera, noticed it getting worse by every update, so I don`t truly believe they will fix it. When with 8.1 p20pro was hands down the low-light monster and had outstanding color depth, which the p30pro couldn`t reach because it lacks the monochrome camera (same goes for the nigh-mode). So even if they do something about the night-mode in future updates, for it would be made so that the camera will be smudged to produce p30pro-like (but blurrier) photos.
Otherwise - I made factory reset, probably 10 times since then, even found a way to delete the camera app with adb run tool, installed the latest version from apk-mirror - still the same (of course). Then I factory reset the phone again and again and again...
So please, when citing me, please cite me only if you found a way to answer my query and you personally managed to install a workingly-run 8.1 camera version, please. Thank you so much for your understanding and willingness to help!
Cheers!
My camera is ok too. I use night mode even during the day, sometimes, for the dramatic effect.

Interesting. What is your p20p model: C432 or C7..?
I answer you in the right way with the typical issues with the software and the cam, I don't care how many times you made factory reset, I see improvements in the cam with emui9.1, maybe your cam or phone is damage, or whatever,

Why?
No AOD ???
I also trusted Samsung to acknowledge the blunder and get it back on Android Q. Unfortunately, no, I don't understand. :crying:

They added AOD only while charging....what a joke.

Exactly. Apart from that I wouldn't know the phone got an update. Maybe the status bar is a bit different but I can't really see anything differnet. Keep in mind tho I also haven't really tested anything yet. But I really thought it would be some bigger changes
I noticed that long screenshot have been added.

(Was away from home, so wanted not to take any 'risks')
Now installed, went trouble-free in 20 maybe 30 minutes. Only few changes here and there (graphics for battery usage, camera, navigation bar gestures). Used Nova Launcher before, now I'm gonna give the OneUI a spin for a while. Screen can accept 5x6 icons (plus bottom row), I don't remeber if that is increased, but was used to 5x7 with Nova.
Saw one (A50) v.10 review on youtube that claimed increased performance in bechmarks, so tried that. Could not confirm any increase with PCMark.

- when taking a screenshot, you get an option to scroll down one or more times, then the screens below get collage'd on, to one long image. That's actually quite clever..
Oh, and one negative : Seems I have now a more or less permanent notification "Samsung account. To continue using services securely, sign in again." Dismiss and it will return shortly. Quite annoying, but googling seems to confirm no solution atm. Hope they decide to remove it later on....

I confirm that A40 outputs audio through USB C no problem (android 10). Using with dac/amp Topping NX4 DSD. I write this because I have read all over net that this does not work, but the gamble paid
Ah that sucks.
You could disable the notificatuo for it tap&hold but its still bad if you want to keep it neat
I'm still waiting for update...
I have installed Android 10 update, and I have noticed now the front camera only shoots in maximum 16MP mode.On Android 9 you could shoot with maximum 25MP mode ,why did they limit something which was already working.Also if anyone is still on Android 9 it would be helpful to know which version of Samsung Camera is on Android 9?
Android 10 version is installed in my phone.
In summary, One UI 2.0 with better Dark Mode support and full gestures that remember me to MIUI implementation.
Battery drops earlier, surely due to new ROM installed and I've to wait for ROM stabilize.

In camera app never I can't set image resolution, only I can set video resolution.
Looks like everyone have update installed except me. I see that it should be already pushed to my phone by the end of May. My girl have the same model and she is happy Android 10 user from beginning of May. Any ideas how to force update or check why it not showing in update section? I already cleared cache for google play services and google framework service and still no update

Proper Working Gcam is Here:

Hello there.
I've been using Gcam from past a year on my phone.
Till today, @the_dise, @Arnova8G2 and @Parrot043's Gcams have been working tremendously awesome on Nokia 6.1 Plus.
When checked, parrot's gcam have more features on comparing with the other 2. And at the same time, some of you might get annoyed after capturing images, because, parrot's gcam create some Halos and ambiance no matter how much you change the settings.
One thing that is common in all the Gcams is that: SlowMo!
It works!
7FPS!

Parrot: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1066/
(Halos:/)
Arnova: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1072/
(Manual focus doesn't work. It focuses on its own)
Dise: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1062/
(His Gcams are near to stock!)
Hi
I have 2 questions
1. Is your device's bootloader is unlocked and you have custom rom installed?
2. Is your phone updated to android 10?
Every gcam don't work on android 10 in this device (shutter button doesn't work & solid green pict)
Not working after few clicks
Hope it helps.
Cheers!?

Gcam used to work normally for me even before unlocking Bootloader. But yeah, some of the gcams mod urnyx, pitbull irritates sometimes.
So, gcams from the_dise, parrot043 and Arnova8G2 are working tremendously awesome.
I've been using gcam from the the_dise from past a year which I loved it. Ofcourse, I've even tried others as well

That problem exists. As the new update on Nokia 6.1 plus has changed the vendor after Android 10.
Turn off the battery optimization for the app on the settings for better performance. Remember that, the app might drain battery. Neglect it.
Usually, it stops clicking images untill you reboot the device.
Edit:
Gcam stops clicking images only if you preview images no sooner you capture the images. You need to wait till it completes processing(and that can be seen in the notification bar). If you preview the images after processing, there will be no issues.
How it helps, cheers!
Use this camera, everything is working.

You clicked the preview button no sooner you capture the image huh? It happens only if you do that.
You're supposed to wait till the image processing is done and it can be good on the notification bar. If you don't wish to wait for 5-6 seconds, then I'd recommend you to TURN OFF the HDR mode and then capture the images so that you might not need to wait.
Reboot your phone once, gcam starts working again now.
Hope it helps, cheers. ?

Have you turned off the battery optimisations? ?
In Nokia phones, it has to be turned off. I dunno much about your device tho!
But, it doesn't usually cause on my phone but yeah, when you capture too many photos at once, it stops capturing until rebooted. You've to wait for atleast 10 secs to capture next shot unless burstshoot

I'm using this (arnova version because it's night sight viewfinder is working) in my Nokia 6.1 Plus TA1083..
And yes battery optimization is disabled..
I've updated to the latest release of this version and still haven't faced that trouble yet.
And capturing frequent photos might be the problem.
I'll keep that in mind Thanks!!!

Hei there is MR update with new build, whether it is fixed the error?
Green tint is coming after clicking pics
I've tried so many gcam mods and none of them save pictures even after waiting sometime to finish processing.
Use Nikita version. Its working fine. Slow motion is also working
When I bought this phone it automatically updated to android 10 ,,
Heard Android 9 is great for Google camera,
So if I downgrade to android 9 will everything work as before?
