GCam for Exynos:

It was very easy to find a GCam for the device running Snapdragon chipset but very difficult to get one for the Exynos chip. The problem is now resolved and we have a working GCam mode for Exynos devices, thanks to developer Zoran.

GCam by Zoran is based on Arnova’s Gcam 6.1 versions. You can also try the older/different versions of GCam on the older devices.

ZGCam is compatible with the following models:

  • Galaxy Note 20 series
  • Galaxy S20 series
  • Galaxy Note 10 series
  • Galaxy S10 series
  • Galaxy S9 series
  • Galaxy Note 9
  • Galaxy S8 series
  • Galaxy Note 8

Important:

 

  • Uninstall previous any GCam and delete config files.
  • Fixes are automatically Loaded per device.
  • You need to disable Framing Hints in Settings, in case of app crash.
  • Do not use Configs from v6.1.
  • Configs are now only for changing the style of the image and how they are denoised, sharpness, and so on.
  • This apk uses the Samsung 3D Scanner app’s package name so Auxiliary lens work. Uninstall that app before installing this GCam.
  • If the viewfinder freezes or if the app is crashing, open the settings menu and disable the “framing hints” option.

 

You can download the ZGCAM for your Samsung Galaxy device from the link below.
