Modded Essential Camera for Nokia 8 (updated 14 Jul 19) - Nokia 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods

I assert that this is made available under fair use. The original app is available from the Play Store.
modifications:
inverted device check
adjusted top bar position
working:
back cameras
gallery
not working:
front camera
portrait blur(?)
download:
v0.1
mega.nz/#!tLBnhY5L!jI-CW1TmS47ZExcRin1YXpP36mIZzrnRKO6gjmnoC0k
v0.2
mega.nz/#!pCp1VIrJ!XSr2HySWb6NxD71oag3NhW11rXEQRg9t-ORVkP1DY18
videos can now be taken using the front camera
tap version number from in-app settings to write debug log

Play store version is not compatible with my Nokia 8.

I gave it a try. It's better than stock camera app, visibly less noise, but any GCam mod beats it. Still, thanks for doing something new for us.

The Play Store version of Essential Camera only works on Essential Phone. The download link for my modified version is at the bottom of the first post.

Thanks for trying it. I started this project because Essential Camera comes with more options for using the monochrome sensor than Nokia's stock camera app.
I hope to add raw capture soon, but for the moment I'm working on support for the front camera.

Hi,
Does the last Google Camera port from dev "back.rider" is the best for Nokia 8 Scirocco ?
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-backrider/
Or is there a better mod from an other dev ?
Or is it better to use the original Camera app installed by Nokia in factory ?
I want to make the best choice for summer.
Regards.

Sirocco's back camera setup is very similar to the Nokia 7 Plus, so back.rider's port seems a good choice.
back.rider just released test1.3 which is not yet added to the Google Camera Port site.

Google Camera 3.2 Lens Blur - Low Quality

I'm running Lineage OS 13 by @Speedo.thc on Honor 7
I've installed Google Camera 3.2, the last version compatible with Marshmallow. I really like the app as its fast and simple. I tried taking pictures with Google Camera Lens Blur but the pictures are taken with very low quality and there are no options for me to change the Resolution. I tried with v2.7 as well and it has the same result. Does anyone else have this problem?
It looks like LOS can't handle lens blur at high quality, you should ask the dev of LOS about it!

As far as I know, Google Camera v3.2 is the last that is supported by Marshmallow.
Google Camera v4.0 and above required Nougat and newer versions
It's a pity cause I love the Lens Blur feature but all the photos from Lens Blur has very low resolution.

Not sure what's the purpose of posting it here since half of the functions are not working. I guess before it posted it you could have at least tested it and amended the description of what's working and what's not - most of the functions work only on Nexus devices.

I guess you must be illiterate bc it says right in the op that I tested it and confirmed it working in the op w/ oss b8... But that's not all... I can now confirm that EVERY FEATURE available in this APK also works with Phoenix AEX on my device. So I either have a better OP3T then you..... or something is wrong with yours..
If I had guess it's an id ten t error.

Buy one of the devices mentioned above ... Or develop it somehow to work on your device. I am not a developer or someone trying to "fake" knowing enough to answer that question for you. I honestly like the Google camera app and provided a link for others who feel as I do... I mentioned in the OP that I can only confirm personal experiences... I specifically wrote that because I cannot support things I do know understand myself. I'm sorry if that came off harsh.. but it's just brutal honesty.

If that was ported apk then I would understand the need to post it but since this is just download from Android O you can get this from 100s of other websites. So taking it from ApkMirror and posting it here makes no sense since nothing was done with the app. If you show me how well HDR+, Smartburst and 120fps work on your totally different Oneplus3t you would be the first with these features working. When you say that EVERY FEATURE is available think twice before posting.

Modded Google Camera with HDR+ on Nokia 8

Since there is no such thread here yet, I wanted to start discussion about using modded Google Camera from this thread on Nokia 8 (mostly what's best configuration and version).
What doesn't work:
- Slow Motion in 6.1.x
- HDR+ in 6.1.x when number of shots is set higher than 20
What works:
- HDR+ (including auto HDR with ZSL on both front and rear cameras)
- Night Sight (only on 6.1.x ports and higher)
- Portrait mode on both front and rear cameras (replaces lens blur mode from older versions of Google Camera)
- Motion Pictures (only on Oreo and higher and only with rear camera set to 16:9 ratio and flash disabled)
- Slow Motion video recording (only on 5.x GCam, broken again on 6.1.x ports)
- Spherical photos
- Panorama
AR Playground (only with 6.1.x ports, you must also install ARCore first)
Recommended for Pie (based on GCam 6.1.x): MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-based_v.1.2_TlnNeun.apk
Recommended for Oreo (based on GCam 5.x): GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.apk
Site with all APKs listed: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
I just downloaded the version on Apotide and I don't really see anything outstanding from the first look.
What are the main benefits of Google Camera vs stock Nokia?
Should I download a different version of Google Camera from somewhere?
Sent from my TA-1012 using Tapatalk
Main benefit is better HDR algorithm and thus better photos in low light conditions. I also think that auto focus in Google Camera works better (it's easier to get focus on the point you want and it stays there until you take a photo) or something else that makes photos from Google Camera less blurry than ones from Nokia Camera.
As for the versions - since they are mostly made for OnePlus, some version work better, some worse with other smartphones as they contain modifications for specific models.
I really miss the HDR from Nokia / Microsoft Lumia.. The pictures were always amazing compared to my wife's iPhone.
Will give Google camera a proper test and see how it goes.
Sent from my TA-1012 using Tapatalk
I finally got Oreo update and those colorful lines (artifacts) are gone, so it seems to be a bug on Nougat only.
Yes I noticed the colour artifacts are gone too. I have the BSC and Arnova apps both installed. I use the BSC app with high parameters for still or more detailed shots and the Arnova is my quicklaunch camera, set to 8mp with Motion Photos enabled and HDR parameters set to default. I also turn camera.faces and camera.shot_tracking on in developer settings.

HDR with the Google Camera app can yield spectacular results. A relative was out with me at a Christmas fayre yesterday evening and we both took a photo of a nice tree - him on his Samsung S8+ and me on my Nokia 8. Mine looked *loads* better.
Which version of Google Camera are you using? Original or a mod version?

Pixels don't have a card slot, which is why the app has no option written into it to save to SD card.
Ah good point.
This is frustrating for me but I will test the app a bit more to see if the image quality makes up for this.

You do have 64GB or 128GB internal to play with, so at the very least you could just occasionally open Google's FilesGo app and tick the 'move to SD' option, or use Google Photos' delete from device option if you're happy to have them in the cloud.
Since installing the G camera apk both stock and G camera are taking too long to open and constantly hanging and making the phone unresponsive so I have unistalled it for now.
I'll try one of the other versions later.
Google Camera producing much better detailed photos compared to Nokia camera app. For sure, the images have more noise, less sharpness and bigger filesize. But at least it has more details, more smoothness and less jaggy pixels.
When I need better images, I use my 808PV.
Using GCam 5.1 Arnova v1.0 on Nokia Oreo.
Small comparison I made. There's a big difference in favor of the Google camera.
Been using it from day 1, Back camera indeed captures better photos compared to stock app
For those who wish to be participated in Google camera mod
Here is the link for all apks

Google Portrait Mode on Galaxy S6 and S6edge (APK Android*7.0)

There are a few contenders for best smartphone camera of 2017, and many would argue that the Google Pixel 2 & 2 XL were the best mobile shooters. That's thanks in large part to the phone's exceptional combination of camera hardware with Google's prowess in image processing software as seen by their famous HDR+ technology.*
Ports of Google Camera with the HDR+ technology have been shown to dramatically improve the picture quality of budget phones like the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and flagship phones like the Essential Phone. The Pixel 2 camera experience is largely an iterative improvement over the first generation Pixel, though it adds some polish with features such as Motion Photos, Face Retouching, and lastly Portrait Mode.{From xda developers}
Both front and back camera portrait mode works.
There are tons of apps out and i'm not the Developer of this app, i just found out this app and which one supports the best on the phone and thought maybe i should share this link*below.*
sometimes the camera app crashes because of incorrect settings so ill put my settings which works for me*best.*
BEST SETTINGS
GO TO CAMERA SETTINGS>>
Tuning back cam>>Pixel XL
Tuning front cam>>Nexus 5X
Back cam photo resolution>>6.0 MP
Front cam photo resolution>>5.0 MP
Advance>>HDR+parameter>>very low
config camera HDR+>>Pixel 2017
Lens blur MP>>12 MP​Using the app in as much lower parameter of settings is always better and your app will work smoothly ( in lower settings)
Download*: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mnMyFHRXhc5eWFrBMtlMyn__YulO20Z6/view?usp=sharing
IMPORTANT: It is important to clear the Ram Before, every time you open the app because the app needs lots of memory
If app crashes then Clear Data Force Stop then open again then Update Settings
OTHER APPS (Root user only): HIGHLY RECOMMEND
*These app force Stop the unwanted background apps which are running in background also clears the phone memory to significant Max limit.
1.Root Booster: "Use In Speed Boost mode" Link:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1N9tw9wLjeUhBPeFOWPkbZL8d7ehSlI5W/view?usp=drivesdk
2. Speed Up Swap:"Use In Very High" Link:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YnJ_Wku5NU2xcqzTihYfGnQuWpi59MH0/view?usp=drivesdk
using this app drastically increased the performance of the Google Camera app
And Also I'm using Noble Nought S8 port 5.1 AlexisXda (This Rom allows to change the screen resolution, i use the app in 1280x720 resolution uses less memory whereas the default s6 resolution is 1440x2560 uses lots of memory)
take that for whatever its worth.
Although i think it should work just fine on any rom because its the hardware which matters

about the TCL Plex, what version do you use? have any config files? (i saw in the page that there are some kind of configurations for camera modes in xml files.. but the developer states that config files should be adapted to phone/camera models)

thanks for the tip! but i don't have a note.. it's a plain redmi 5 (codename rosy)...
and the process is kind of tricky to something i'm not sure will work..
anyway, i'm migrating to tcl plex and when i finish it i'll change my ROM in redmi 5 (problaby for paranoid.. never had it but seems interesting.. they released a new version lately)
