    Best Google Camera (GCam) and settings for Redmi Note 7, Note 7 Pro, Mi 9T and more - Guide

    Posted: 24 Oct 2019 11:58 PM PDT

    There are many versions of GCam out there but GCam mod by Parrt043 is the best at the moment.

    You don't need to root your device to install this.  

    Supported Devices -

    This GCam and settings works on all these devices listed below,

    • Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime.

    • Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (X).

    • Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 India.

    • Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro.

    • (Xiaomi) Redmi Note 7 / 7S.

    • (Xiaomi) Redmi Note 7 Pro.

    • Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite.

    • Xiaomi Mi 9 (Only on MIUI 10)

    • Xiaomi Mi 9T. (It will aslo support some devices not mentioned here, Just try installing and see if it works for your phone)

     

    Link -

    GCam Link - Mega Link , Celsoazevedo - Download "PMGC_7.0.009_ConfigsVersion_V3.apk" or the latest version available (see Note at the end) .

     

    Configuration -

    There are 2 ways we can configure this, Using XML files (Saved Settings) and Manually, XML files are the easiest, has Astrophotography mode and is the best way in my opinion but if you want to tweak your own settings then Manual is the way to go.

    Note - Parrot mods say that the GCam works best on custom firmware such as Havoc, Pixel Experience and crDroid although i haven't had any problems with MIUI.

     

    1. Loading XML files -

    1. Install the GCam .apk and open it.

    2. Create a folder named "GoogleCamera" in the main folder (Root Folder).

    3. Create a folder named "ConfigsCamera" inside the "GoogleCamera" folder.

    4. Download these XML files (Use chrome to download this)

    5. Copy all three XML files and paste it inside ConfigsCamera folder (GoogleCamera -> ConfigsCamera -> .xml files are here ) See Fig. 0

    6. Open Gcam, double tap on the black part (See Fig. 1) and Select the profile you need and tap restore. (If it restarts then the profile has been successfully opened.)

    7. Make sure that HDR+ is enabled in the Mini settings Fig. 3 and enable Raw if you want it (Raw takes two images, one JPEG and one .DNG which is RAW)

    8. That's it, change the XML profiles Based on your need.

      • AZ-Main-Camera-HDR - Good to take photos from main Camera and overall the best settings.
      • AZ-Tripod-NightSight-Astro - Good for Nightsight and Also includes Astrophotography, to use Astro mode you just use the Night mode but don't move the phone, it will automatically take a 1 minute shot, use tripod for best results.
      • AZ-NightSight-2 - Secondary Nightsight option

     

    2. Manual Tweaking -

    1. Install the GCam .apk and open it, go to settings and then to Advanced under photo settings.

    2. Basic Settings (Turn On and Off the following settings) -

      • Show Dirty lens warning - Turn On
      • Save selfie as previewed - Turn On if you want selfie to be as it is shown on screen.
      • HDR+ control - Turn On
      • Hide Icon Movement - Turn Off
      • Use Mode McFly - Turn Off
      • Focus Tracking - Turn Off
      • Enable Google Photos - Turn On
      • Maximum Brightness - Turn On if you want Maximum screen brightness when you are taking a pic.
      • Raw+JPEG - Turn On if you want Raw (Raw is good for lightroom editing)
      • Store Videos Efficiently - Turn On
      • Quick settings - Turn Off
    3. HDR+ Settings -

      • Compress JPG - Set to 100%
      • Quality HDR+ - I set it to 32 (I your device takes too long to take a pic then reduce this a bit)
      • Binary files library - default
      • Pixel AWB Mod - Pixel 4 XL
      • Correction auto exposure - Auto
      • Exposure compensation - set to -0.2 (The photos may be a bit darker if you use this settings but you could always increase the exposure after you take the pic, this is because it is always easier to Increase exposure, Decreasing exposure in an over exposed pic will result in a bad image)
      • Basic settings - Don't change
      • Saturation - Back camera (Set Highlight Saturation to 1.1, Set Shadow Saturation to 1.9), Leave Front camera on default
      • Use DCI-P3 color space - Turn On
    4. Portrait -

      • Advance HDR+ portrait mode - Turn On
      • Disable Zoom - Turn On
      • Save to DCIM/Camera - Turn On if you don't want separate folders for Portraits
    5. Under Experimental settings disable UHD 4K in "Acceleration" mode.

    6. That's all for Photo settings, Now go back to main setting and Set both Video settings to 1080p (If you really want it then use 4k setting but it uses too much space) then set Bitrate to Auto (If you want to set the Bitrate manually then the higher the number, the better the video quality is but it will eat up your storage). You could also stabilize the video in Google photos after you take it.

    7. That's it, Make sure that HDR+ is enabled in the Mini settings Fig. 3 and enable Raw if you want it (Raw takes two images, one JPEG and one .DNG which is RAW)

     

    Note-

    You are all set now, For you to use the Astrophotography mode your phone shouldn't move, Use a tripod or set your phone against something, Astrophotography pic takes about 1 minute.

    This version of GCam is the best for daylight photography but the Astro mode doesn't work on it sometimes, if you don't care about that mode then install this instead. You can share this anywhere, just credit me. I would also like to thank Parrot043 team for constantly improving and modding GCam for Mi phones.

    If you have any questions feel free just message me

    Edit 1 - The V6 was released today (LINK), you can enable Saber mode in the settings now for Note 7, it won't crash. Saber mode improves the sharpness of the image, it merges several photos to get a single quality photo, kinda like Apple's Deepfusion. Turn it on if you like it. If your device crashes then turn it off.

    Edit 2 - No need root for above mentioned devices and newer devices that was released recently.

    Edit 3 - If you are having trouble creating the GoogleCamera folder to use XML files then there is another way, Open GCAM -> Go to setting -> Advanced photo settings -> tap on Save XML config -> Type something and save it.... Now the folders would have been created, just find it and paste the XML files inside it.

    Mix 2s battery still amazing after a year of abuse

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 12:50 PM PDT

    I can still get around 6 to 7 hours of SoT most of the time, and it's 'only' a 3400mAh battery powering a Snapdragon 845 chip.

    Definitely have NOT treated this device well, and it still holds up!

    So yeah, the Mix 2s is still a pretty darn solid phone.

    The Mi Home app (Android 10) drains my battery even when barely using it and greenifying

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 11:36 AM PDT

    The permissions the app uses are already ridiculous, but the battery drain is making me hate my decision to buy xiaomi products.

    Can someone please explain how the MIUI 11 roll out actually works?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 04:40 PM PDT

    Sorry to flood the sub with the same damn question but I used to be quite in the loop back in the day... Life and work gets in the way and I can't keep up with Xiaomi anymore...

    Can someone actually explain how the new update is supposed to roll out? I saw on Twitter that miui 11 was rolling out for the Mix 3 in the Chinese version. Does that mean that global stable is coming soon too? Or were the first dates referring only to Chinese and Indian ROMS? I thought they were referencing global stable too? Just wondering if I should hold my breath...

    Thanks to anyone that takes the time to answer

    Is it worth $125 more for me?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 08:15 PM PDT

    I'm torn between the mi9 lite and the 9t pro. i know they are not for the same public, but it is 125 dollars more expensive than mi9 lite. Right now I am using a redmi 5 and it is slow, so almost anything will suffice. I don't play games, but the 9t pro is notchless and with a better SoC.
    I don't know if it would make sense paying 125 more for my use. I care about battery-life more

    What does "down error" mean when I try to update the firmware of my Mi Robot 1st Gen

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 01:26 PM PDT

    Pretty much the title.

    Due to a firmware problem I had to change the Mainboard of my 1st Gen Mi Robot Vacuum. The new one is working, but it tells me that a firmwar update is available. When I try to download the update I only get the message "down error" in the App.

    Any way to fix this?

    Why Xiaomi not launching any tabs ?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 09:59 PM PDT

    I'm a great fan of tabs, but I don't want to spend over 500$ dollar a decent tablet. Seriously there is no good tabs under 300 dollars. I really wish mi launches a decent tab with any processor between snapdragon 660 and 710.

    Login username for administration page of router

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 09:36 PM PDT

    I'm trying to load Padavan but am stuck at not being able to log in after the initial setup to install the dev image. The browser wants me to provide a username along with the password and the usual ones like root and admin don't work. I know the password is correct since I can use it via the app.

    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Mi 9 SE - microphone issue

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 01:44 PM PDT

    Hi

    I have Mi 9 SE since a few months, and the same issue from the beginning.

    When I call someone on video call, using Duo, or Whatsapp, the people I call can't hear me, or I "sound like I'm underwater".

    I have to move the phone close to me and talk loud for a few seconds until they can hear me.

    Sometimes, it starts doing this randomly in the middle of a call.

    I suspect the noise cancelation that messes up, but there is no options to change that, unless rooted phones.

    I don't think it's my phone that's broken, I had this issue before and got a new phone, and the issue is still here.

    Any idea?

    Thank you

    Just got Haylou GT1s and tried pairing them to each other and my phone. The L earbud is not lighting up at all. Is the L earbud defective or is it a mistake on my part? Please help.

    Edit: I have tried charging them overnight and only the R earbud lights up, both in the case and when taken out.

    Will Mi 8 Lite get Miui 11?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 01:37 PM PDT

    Where can you get Xiaomi Mi headphones OEM replacement pads

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 07:00 PM PDT

    Is there anywhere to get Xiaomi Mi Headphone replacement pads? I've bought aftermarket ones off AliExpress and Amazon, but they feel nothing like the original Xiaomi Protein Leather pads and don't have the perforated leather which is the best kind of leather for Headphones IMO. The original perforated pads breath better and they don't affect the bass as much as non-perforated leather pads. Xiaomi's website also still seems to use the graphics from the 1st generation Mi Headphone that I'm still using with the Open Back design, as opposed to the Inferior 2nd gen Mi Headphones with the semi/fake open back design which doesn't sound as great. The second generation also looks like they got rid of the perforated pads as well.
