[Download] Redmi Note 8 Gcam Port APK – Note 8 & note8T Google Camera

Follow the Download Link and Steps for Redmi Note 8 Gcam Port APK, with the steps on how to apply config files, and even how to troubleshoot common issues. Let’s go!

If you’ve got a Redmi Note 8 or Note 8T, chances are you’ve felt the pain of the stock camera app not living up to the potential of the hardware. Don’t worry—you’re not alone!

Thankfully, the Gcam (Google Camera) ports can seriously level up your photography game. Whether it’s night shots, dynamic range, or just better clarity overall, Gcam brings a massive improvement.

How to Port Gcam to Redmi Note 8 and Note 8T

Porting Gcam to your Redmi Note 8 or Note 8T is actually much simpler than it sounds.

Since both devices share the same camera setup and processor (Snapdragon 665), most ports that work on one will work on the other. Developers like Urnyx05, BSG, and Greatness have already done the hard work of modifying the app so it’s compatible with your device.

The trick is picking the right version—some ports are more stable than others, depending on your Android version (MIUI 11, 12, or even custom ROMs). We’ll focus on the more stable ones that work right out of the box.

Config File Supported for Redmi Note 8 and Note 8T

Yes, config files make a HUGE difference. They fine-tune Gcam settings to match your device’s hardware. Without a config file, you might still get better photos than the stock app, but you’ll be missing out on the full power of Gcam.

For Redmi Note 8 and 8T, there are several tested config files available. Some popular ones are:

These files tweak settings like saturation, exposure, noise reduction, etc., specifically for your camera sensor. You can find them on the same Celso Azevedo page or XDA forums.

How to Download and Use Config Files

Here’s a quick step-by-step on how to use those magical config files:

1. Download the XML config file from the link provided in the table above to your phone.
2. Create a folder in your internal storage: Android Gcam Folder.
   • For Gcam version 7: /GCam/Configs7/
   • For other versions, the folder name might be Configs, Configs7, or Configs8, depending on the Gcam version number.
3. Move the config file into that folder.
4. Open Gcam, then double-tap the black area near the shutter button. A menu will pop up—select your config file and hit Restore.

Done! Your Gcam is now optimised for your Redmi Note 8 or 8T.

How to Fix Issues with the Gcam Port in the Redmi Note 8

Even with a stable port, some hiccups are normal. Here’s how to fix the common ones:

• App crashes on launch?
  Try a different version of the app (like Gcam 6.2 or 7.3) or clear the cache and reinstall. Make sure you didn’t open it before applying the config.
• Slow-motion or portrait mode not working?
  Not all features are fully stable in every build. Try switching between different ports (Urnyx05 vs Arnova) to find one that supports the feature you need.
• Overexposed selfies or bad color balance?
  This is where config files really help. If you haven’t used one yet, go back and apply it.
• Black screen in night sight?
  Enable “Viewfinder Format” in advanced settings or try a different config.

Final Thoughts

With the right Gcam port and config, the Redmi Note 8/Note 8T becomes a mini Pixel in your pocket. Photos get sharper, low-light performance improves massively, and you get that punchy HDR+ look that just makes everything pop.
