PhotonCamera VS Gcam-Services-Provider

PhotonCamera: Android Camera that uses Enhanced image processing

Google Camera - most people suck it up and use GCam. The normal AOSP camera looks horrid. It sucks, but there's few other options available. Maybe try Photon if it annoys you?

If it's available (50mp RAW), you can look into Photon Camera. https://github.com/eszdman/PhotonCamera

So when I install gcam services provider app https://github.com/lukaspieper/Gcam-Services-Provider System says *package already exists.

My goal for today is to get photos as good as Google Camera, on my Graphene'd Pixel 4. GrapheneOS's camera just wasn't cutting it for me, so I installed this: https://github.com/lukaspieper/Gcam-Services-Provider And then Google Camera and Google Photos. I'm not logged into my Google account for Google Photos, and I used the above link in order to not install GSF.

You don't need microG to use Google camera, Gcam services provider is sufficient.

If you don't plan on using Gapps, you can use GCam Services provider and a GCam app.

you can try this instead: https://github.com/lukaspieper/Gcam-Services-Provider

Get Gcam services provider - essentially the Camera/Photos

Its also important to note, that this app only works without google services if you install a fake-version of those services or have microG installed

If you have MicroG installed, you should be able to use it directly after installing and configuring it. In case you don't have MicroG you can also use this app which fakes the Google dependencies required to run GCam.

Pixel 4a with Graphene OS, only GCam Services Provider (https://github.com/lukaspieper/Gcam-Services-Provider) to be able to use Google Camera. Implementation is super simple and it shouldn't take long to see that it actually does nothing.
