It used to work on my LG G8.
OP, if you haven't found it yet, https://www.cyanogenmods.org/google-camera-galaxy-s20-fe-5g/ looks like someone already linked it in another thread

Hey, a few things:
Astro works in this version: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-wichaya/
Config is attached. Move to /gcam/config7/ then double tap on area around shutter to load

[GUIDE] GCAM Mod for ZTE AXON 10 Pro

Hello, here for all who are not satisfied with the camera quality of the AXON 10 Pro. Everything works perfect in this version except for 1-2 things. There are some things that you have to pay attention to, more below.
Here is a small comparison with comments:
Night: https://photos.app.goo.gl/WLDZSGboeyfQNKyS8
Day: Still to follow
1. First, download and install this GCAM version:
https://mega.nz/#!xXJTCY6J!NId0QM4tYi7woKoy1BwKN_fAGBJN0J95LnIKHhK5gJc
2. Then my own config for the AXON 10 Pro:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117896736
3. Now you have to create this folder structure on the internal memory:
Gcam -> configs
4. Now you take the config "Axon10ProV3.xml" and pack it in the newly created "configs" folder.
5. Now you can start the new camera app and allow the permissions.
6. Now just tap the black area next to the trigger and the config restores.
7. Done! Have fun (but there are things to note!)
12MP main and 5MP front are normal and is expected! (4in1 pixels)
You can switch by holding the camera switching & gallery buttons through the different lenses!
Update 1:
Changlog:
-Workaround for Nightsight not needed anymore
-4K Front Video
-60fps added (Resolution Bug)
If you want to use the night vision mode on the main camera you have to:
Switch to Ultra Wide or Tele
Then more
Now select Forbearance
Finished!
If you want to use the night vision mode on Tele & Ultra you need:
Switch to Ultra Wide or Tele
If it is not dark enough to stop the lens
Now night vision is proposed.
Tap on it and you're done!
Under "More" -> "Settings" -> "Advanced" -> "Libs" you can choose between different profiles. The "s" stands for sharpened. I prefer the non-s libs as they produce a more natural image. Its also set in my config. For Nighsight the "s" versions can produces better results.
Have fun with a much better camera!
Very good
---------- Post added at 02:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 AM ----------
when I use night mode the camera turns off after taking the picture
Update 1:
Changlog:
-Workaround for Nightsight not needed anymore
-4K Front Video
-60fps added (Resolution Bug)
APK link fixed.
Im clicking next to shutter button and all I get is message that <You don't have any configs>. How do you import configs?

Step 3 and 4
Much appreciate your efforts!
So far so good with my tests. Tons of fine tuning with GCAM it's not even funny. I just have a problem that I can't seem to resolve with the Video.
Whenever I switch to video mode, the GCAM app just crashes. I feel like i'm missing something stupid or probably some user operated error on my part...
Any assistance on this i'd be grateful!
EDIT: I'm using the ROM from China.
Thanks

Found a link to a working Gcam 7.0 apk for the Axon 10 Pro. Everything seems to work. There's a detailed settings menu which lets you make lots of adjustments that I haven't messed with yet. Here's the link. I downloaded the version for the "K20, K20 Pro, OnePlus Devices".

Can you please update that link to point to a real Gcam 7?
Any news for a GCAM mod working with Android 10 on Axon 10? Old 6.1x version doesn't work anymore and "new" 7.x version from this thread uses only main camera. Is there a version working with all 3 back cameras?
Gesendet von meinem ZTE A2020G Pro mit Tapatalk
Yeah. Hope someone develops one that's compatible with Android 10 and all three cameras.
Any news by now for a GCAM mod working with Android 10 on Axon 10?
Hi folx,
i tried recently different GCam Mods to find a fitting one but i didn't succeed getting the one with all settings working
This is what i find so far: (i hope it is not doubled - then plz forgive me :angel: )
1 - Sabre is not working on my phone (Android 10) different Mods 7.3.020 -> always results in not saved pictures... Maybe it never worked before ?
2 - Auto focus tracking in combination with Video crashes the GCAM on my phone.
3 - Is there a possibility to get all three Cams working on ZTE or is it impossible due to a certain fact ?
4 - Which of the GCam - Mods is preferred by your experiences in respect of working features and picture quality ?
5 - Someone asked one of the GCam Modders to create a mod for the Axon 10 pro ? Maybe a small Team can help ?
6 - Is there a howto mod GCAM apk ?
7 - Haven't found a description of the Libpatcher's parameters - some are still unknown to me
Actually i use the one from parrot043 - Libpatcher enabled - trying to find the best setting for now i increased most of the parameters by 25 %
I wish you all a pleasant sunday
Cheers
Rhonin
I've tried several gcam mods. They all seem to work fine with the main camera. But I am unable to use any of the secondary cameras. Often there is not even an option to activate. If so... The app crashes as soon as I switch to wide angle or tele.
Anybody found a working mod? Android 10

I am also running into it crashing when taking a night mode shot. Any ideas on how to fix it?
Hi folx, i think we have to root our phones first to activate a special magisk modul called : Auxiliary_in_GCam_magisk . After that it could/should be possible to access the other cams. But due the fact that i haven't rooted my phone yet i can't tell you from my own experiences. For now i'm happy with PixelCam Dise v1.2
If s.o. has rooted his phone and tested a fitting GCam Mod - please inform the rest of us -
THX in advance

[GCam mods] [6, 7] [A70] || Config Files || Night Sight || October 8, 2019

Hi there fellow A70 users!
So after playing around with my new A70, here we go with a collection of nicly working GCam versions.
With some little modifications, we can unleash some more power from the A70's camera.
Update 4, gcam 7, no config xml files supported ATM. (October 8, 2019)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80467435&postcount=97
Update 3, new gcam mod, new config file. (October 6, 2019)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80451127&postcount=78
Update 2, no config files needed. (September 11, 2019)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80221658&postcount=57
Update 1 (July 18, 2019): https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79922545&postcount=37
Here's what you need:
This GCam mod by @Arnova8G2: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog585/
The xml config file (attached): View attachment taco_Arnova8G2_v1.5_Note9Snapdragon.xml. Or download from here.
Note: For the xml config file create this folder structure in your internal sd card and copy it there: SDcard/GCam/Configs​
What to do:
1. Install the GCam mod apk
2. Import the config file this way: open the Google Camera, double click the dark area around the capture button, select the config, and then click on "restore". See screenshot below. Detailed guide here.
3. (Optional) Make these two small changes in the app settings/advanced menu: Set front camera to Nexus 6P; set the libs to Eszdman:Xtrme v3 (these are optional changes. But I can see improoved pictures with my A70.)
For those who need more:
You can find a lot of config files here. Feel free to test diffrent xml config files and let us know if you have better results with other configurations/settings.
Ending lines:
Have fun by unleashing the full power of the A70 camera. Stay on topic and help each other.
Don't even try to think about demanding for fixes or posting in a disrespectful way.
Do you feel frustrated with your A70? Deal with it somwhere else don't post it here.
This guide is here because @Arnova8G2 decided to share his work with the community and because I wanted to share this guide with you. So, no one ows you anything. End of the story!
So share here your thoughts, findings and sugestions to improve the camera experience!
Take care.

Great one buddy!
Does it have a setting to use 32mp? I have a gcam installed with night sight but it doesn't have the 32mp option just like any other camera app. Sorry I'm just a noob with this kind of things.

the problem is that the camera api on this phone shows only 8mp back, 5.2mp front - it happens in all camera apps, except the native one
I think there is no solution for this, for now

Google pixel doesn't have a 32 mega pixel camera. So you will not see that option in a gcam mod.
However the gcam mod will still use that lense, no worries.

Very good Work,thank you very much.
I have one question:
If i use your config settings,why does it need 10 Seconds until the Picture is ready?
Without the config settings,it needs about 2 Seconds.

Can we get Instagram Mode on the Note 9?

I have been asking a lot of developers if its possible to get the Instagram mode on the Note 9? I'm a photographer and I really want to see that feature on my Galaxy Note 9. Can someone please make this happen?

Gives you square pics, instagram style
On a serious note, this is a thing! Something new I've learnt - may be related to most up-to-date ROM version/ region.
Have you checked under camera settings ---> camera modes (under useful features) --> Edit modes?

I just wish someone can bring the Instagram mode from the S10 to the Note 9.
Rules for the best Instagram story are the same no matter what type of post you're trying to pull off. It's all about selection and execution. It would be best to have something that will resonate strongly with your audience and tug at their emotions. Your goal should be to persuade somebody to follow you on social media, buy something from your store or send you money. To have that "instant viral response," you need to be ready to share as soon as you snap a pic. An excellent tip would be an Instagram frame. You can read here how to make it https://macpaw.com/how-to/white-frame-instagram. In this way, you will make your posts more beautiful.

Seem to works fine, I'm impressed by how photo quality is improved.

Has anyone figured out how to add more options to the main settings menu in v8.1 (or higher) at all? E.g. in the... focus, flash, google awb, timer and ratio menu. I'm trying to add an option to turn hdr on/off but cannot find a place to make this setting.

I seem to be on the same version as you Hesham-Abbas, but that option just isn't there. Maybe you have changed a setting in the 'developer settings' section?
when i use gcam i see camera lag, is there any way to fix it?
I tried the BGS version, I applied some logs as well, but there are still issues.
Anyone have a bugs free version or advice?
By bugs I mean, when going to the macro camera, app crashes and I need to uninstall and reinstall in order to work again. No way of choosing diff lenses for video, it's just dark.
Device not rooted btw.
Thank you,
The version shown in the screenshots in my last post works just fine for pretty much everything including the macro camera using chequebo1's config xml. Just disable the missing camera module option as it crashes if you try to select that one by mistake, you can remove the depth sensor camera too if not wanted, for reference they are camera modules 0.9 and 1.2 under settings>modules.

I am sticked between buying the regular note 10 and note 10s because of the chipset.
Snapdragon usually gets more custom support than MTK

This is everything related to HDR in the developer settings..
But, I think this is device/Chipset related..
I have Redmi Note 8 and my sister has Redmi Note 10. Both have Snapdragon..
I should have mentioned that earlier, SORRY..
Ok no problem, thanks anyway. Will check the settings you have posted just in case.
