  • Adds Multi Frame Noise Reduction support for the Macro/Monochrome (8/8T) and Ultra Wide (8 Pro).

Changelog for v1.2 »

v1.2:
– Support for OxygenOS 13.
– Thanks to @haiderijaz for providing the file and testing the modules.

v1.1:
– Module by @shadowstepxda
– Updated base template to MMT-Ex v2.0
– This version supports all firmware variants and comes with a volume key based selector
– There’s also a new alternative OOS11 config, use it if you’re having issues with the standard one
– Some ROMs may have the fix build in. PE13 unofficial for the 8T/9R and EvolutionX for all 8 Series/9R are known to include it as of now.

Instructions:

For all phones:

  • Install the module in the Magisk app.
  • Use the volume keys to select the firmware version used by your ROM.
  • Reboot your phone.

If you want to use 48MP, you also need to:

  • Install the following GCam app and load the provided config.

48MP GCam:

Download and install Arnova’s 8.1 GCam (any of the packages/apks are fine):

Also download the config file and the noise model used by this config (you need to download the 2 files).

Config for all devices:

Noise modeller:

⚠️ Both the config and noise modeller need to be moved to the configs folder at /GCam/Configs8/. If the noise modeller file isn’t in the folder, GCam will display a dark display after loading the config.

ℹ️ To load the config, allow GCam to manage all files and then double click the black area around the shutter button, select the config, and load it.

Google Camera 48MP

48MP limitations:

  • Currently, 48MP only seems to work on Arnova’s GCam 8.1.
  • If you don’t want to use this version as your main GCam app, you can keep both installed and only Arnova’s GCam for 48MP. If you want to only use 1 app for both 12/48MP, you can switch between both modes by using config files (the one linked above for 48MP and another for 12MP).
  • 48MP works better in well lit areas (eg: outdoors during the day). The binned resolution (12MP in this case) performs better in low light/hasher conditions.
  • Processing high resolution frames is resource intensive. You may experience some lag, heat, and higher battery drain. Very long exposures (eg: astrophotography) may fail.
  • If you want to create a config from scratch or try with other mods, you need to select the 48MP stream config for the supported cameras (or manually input the steam id: 40980). You also need to enable “super res” and toggle camera.pck_force_jpeg in the dev settings.
