Gcam uses the second sensor for portrait? - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Today I have miui and the gcam app, but the portrait mode of the miui cam, although more exaggerated, seems to wok better. The gcam app uses the second sensor or do it all by software? If I install pixel experience rom + the miui cam port, the miui cam will be able to perform like in the miui rom (using the second sensor)? Thanks!

i think its impossible because thats not how gcam works
unless google themselves add support for a secondary depth sensor

Camera apps supporting "Portrait Mode" (Stereo mode in MIUI)

I've discovered that in Ressurection Remix and probably other ROMs that the monochrome camera is accessible, and I can use it with the built in camera app. There's no blur support, though. Does anyone know any apps that can do it?
I'm looking for something that actually uses the second camera, rather than computer-generating it.
The Mi a1 camera port doesn't do it.
Just install Google camera hdr+ and use lens blur. Exactly same thing.

Poco Miui Camera app for custom Roms

So I've been using the Miui Camera app for a little while, just before I unlocked the phone and went to LOS16. On LOS16 I'm using the default camera app, but am missing a couple of things from the Miui Camera app. In particular the Fingerprint Shutter and the different modes (AI / portrait and such). Would it be possible to create a separate apk file of the original Poco Miui-camera, to run on Custom Roms?
Exactly my thought. This is the only thing i miss from MIUI rom! Hoping there's some way we can install the stock camera app on LOS
Its know fact that xiaomi and other brands original camera will not work on los 15, 16. Its because it uses code that is not opensource and is locked to miui system. Only alternative is google cam port, or using camera apps from google playstore like opencamera, footej camera and others.
Can you use the video stabilization in LOS 16?
Or the slow motion?
Slow motion is not working. Video Stabilization is on, at least, that is what it says. Seems to stabilize my movement.
Main reason I am on LOS 16 at the moment is Android Auto, which works there.

i think that's not true, I've seen whyred (redmi note 5 pro or ai global version) stock camera for custom rom on magisk module. Maybe it'll need more time for the development

[MOD REQUEST] [PLATINA] Miui Camera for custom ROMs

I request Miui Camera mod for the Mi 8 Lite specifically.
There is a mod for the Redmi Note 5 that apparently works on the Mi 8 Lite too, but changes several parameters of the build.prop such as the model and the device's code name. When trying to change them the mod stops working correctly and gives an error message (can not connect to the camera)
There is also GCam, but with some bugs and errors.
Anyone who can make a functional port of the Miui camera for this device?
I would also like.
I'm waiting to unlock my bootloader and then i will try to port stock camera app ??

Tested on last Mokee aosp build, install this module with magisk
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1frIYQ83SEGuijmdARYMiKmMRJA6wl166
Install Pixel Expirience CAF last version, install stock miui camera via Magisk and restart phone, replace vendor/lib libmmcamera_platina_imx576_sunny with this lib from zip and disable Hal3 support in vendor/build.prop and restart again. After this steps Miui front camera will work with 24.8mp, also Instagram, messenger etc will work like charm on 24.8mp ....
What about with Gcam? Without HAL3 enabled, it can't be used. Would there be any way for both cameras to work? Personally, I like both applications very much.
You can open a thread where you go picking up the different revisions of this port, so more people will try it.
Hallelujah, we already have the Miui camera for Platina (with bugs for the moment hahaha). Thank you:fingers-crossed:

For now there is no way to make working both cameras alongside with camera2api and Gcam, another great thing is that I managed to port portrait for back camera and utilize both sensors for depth and main shooter, later I will made thread when i finish my work

Gcam Latest MGC and Sanity

I got the latest gcam versions working on mix 3 so gonna share it here
Sanity:
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GoogleCamera_6.2.030_stable_alt.apk
BSG:
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/MGC_6.2.030_RN7_V1plusplus_FINAL.apk
Will Attach Sample Images Later
The Sanity apk worked for me but BSG kept closing. Thanks very much!
Everything seems to be working without any issues - it has some cool camera modes not in the stock camera.
I will use this for the night sight because I hear it's better than MIUI's version.
But I'll keep MIUI camera for front facing pictures:
gcam front facing flash lights up screen rather than uses the torch at the front.
In gcam settings, front camera photo resolution maximum is 6.2 megapixels instead of 24MP.
gcam has digital zoom! This is good - stock doesn't have digital zoom.
Does anyone have any opinion on MIUI camera vs gcam for daytime pictures though (mix 3)? It's night time here so I can't compare yet.
Looks like gcam does not use the optical zoom (2x) like stock does. Only digital zoom available. So stock camera may be better here for far away shots.

Using the telephoto lens is different on GCam 6.2 version, it was easier on previous versions. IIRC, you have to go to settings (settings > advanced > on the bottom there is a "Switch to the auxiliary back camera" switch) every time you want to use the telephoto lens. A bit annoying but there's nothing we can do about that, I'm afraid.

I was able to use all the three cameras with gcam systemizing the Gcam App (I use the hypercam) and three buttons to change camera popped on the top right of the viewfinder. You can find the discussion I read here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81292763&postcount=98

I really don't know how to help you, I just did those steps and it worked, btw I'm on the stock ROM with the camera2api enabled as stock.
I attached a pic on how it should look like.
i installed MGC_7.3.018_Parrot043-v1 as system app on miui and it crashed

Use ANXCamera version 164 and download the 48MP fix zip from ANXCamera website. BTW, there is no telephoto lens in Mi A3. Only wide-angle and standrd. The 2x zoom in the camera option is digital. It still uses the main lens. The third lens is a 2MP depth sensor. Portrait mode also works on ANX 164.
PS. I am on the lates Pixel Experience Plus Rom

Use the latest anx 175 and 48mp fix, why use an older version? Everything works perfectly
