Gcam BSG 8.1 is a modified version of the Google Camera app that offers more features and potentially better image quality than the stock camera app on your phone. Config files allow you to further customize these features and optimize the app for your specific device.
Here's what you'll need:
- Gcam BSG 8.1 installed on your phone (download link not provided due to potential source volatility). You can find guides on finding the appropriate version for your device through a search on [YouTube].
- A Gcam config file compatible with BSG 8.1 (download source not provided due to potential source volatility). These are often shared on forums and YouTube channels. Make sure the config is compatible with your device and Gcam version!
Adding a Config File to Gcam BSG 8.1:
- Download the config file (.xml format).
- Open Gcam BSG 8.1.
- Swipe down twice from the viewfinder to access Settings.
- Navigate to Settings > Settings (may vary slightly depending on the version).
- Look for an option named Configs or Load Configs.
- Tap on it and select the downloaded config file.
- You might be prompted to give the config a name. Enter a descriptive name (optional).
- Restart Gcam BSG 8.1 for the changes to take effect.
Important Notes:
- Downloading Gcam and config files can be risky. Only download from trusted sources and be aware of potential malware.
- Config files are device and Gcam version specific. Using an incompatible config file may cause crashes or unexpected behavior.
- Make sure to back up the original config before applying a new one.
Finding Compatible Config Files:
- Search for forums or YouTube channels dedicated to Gcam modding for your specific phone model.
- Look for videos or posts mentioning Gcam BSG 8.1 config files.
- Be cautious of download links and only use sources you trust

Note: It seems that there are some differences between the Snapdragon and Exynos variants which makes the configs partially incompatible. Try different configs, maybe one will work for you. Or try to change the settings yourself (eg: enable the extra cameras inside "modules", etc).
