I couldn’t find config file of parrot043 gcam 8.2 for Poco x3 NFC…
Parrot043 GCam 8.2 has a superb touch, yet slowmo crashes the app instantly on poco x3pro and oneplus 7t pro
Poco x3, updated and using GCam 8.2: no 0.5x (wide) option available, only toggle switch between 1X-2X.
The latest Gcam dont have advance mode cannot edit in lib patcher. thanks
Parrot043 GCam 8.2 works well with my Poco X3, the only problem is I am unable to load the config, I did everything correct in regards of the folders, I was also able to download the PocoX3NFCConfigfromQChannel.xml file, when I double tap near the shutter nothing is happening and I am not getting any prompts.
I know it also did not load the config because everything is still set to default. Any thoughts on how to fix this please?
Parrot043 8.2 might not be supporting xml config files yet.
If I am not wrong, the config guide that is added in the post is only for supported GCam mods like the NIkita GCam 7.4.
Where can I download the xml for Poco x3nfc
What is the latest and maximum xml for poco x3 surya
There is a problem with Video stabilization mode with “Active” and “Cinematic Pan” mode, when I switch to them from “standard” the screen goes black. The black screen goes away if you change the zoom levels but the zoom levels is not accurate “1x zoom” and “2x zoom” seems to get inversed. The app also crashes sometimes in these mode and stabilization does not seem to be working.
I am using GCam 8.1.101 V1 by Nikita with PocoX3NFCConfigfromQChannel.xml with miui 12.0.8 Stable
Hello Arvind, I have tested other builds too but currently, no other build offers these modes so I guess you have to wait for the more stable release.
when i double click a text says device out of storge
Hi, where exactly is the xml file for GCAM 8.1? I can’t find the link to it..
Also the slowmotion in this version is super blurry on my poco x3 :/.
Why doesn’t the face smoother work?
No ultrawide(0.6x) option here like the stock camera?
Can you please tell which GCam port are using?
It seems that when I opened the slow motion the gcam keeps crashing
Which GCam port are you using?
Most of the gcam does not have this feature ported by the developers.
Saludos cómo se activa los 64MP del Poco X3 NFC ya que en los detalles de la foto dice 16MP solamente y no encuentro una forma de cambiarlo a 64MP. Del resto excelente. Gracias por el aporte
Muito obrigado por toda disponibilidade em nos ajudar hoje e sempre!

So whats with xml instalation in newest version GCam_5.2beta3??? “double tap near the blank space” isnt working now or what? How do i know config is active?
Gcam 8.1 for poco x3 nfc have problems with time lapse and slow motion
“First create a directory in the name of Gcam (G capital letter) under the ROOT directory.”
This line is incredibly misleading. It made me assume that the folder had to be created in the root directory of the phone (the read-only thing that contains system, etc) and sent me on a quest to find a way to do it, taking me a good half a day until I realized that it meant internal storage (even though it literally says it in the line above this one).
So, to avoid similar confusion, I’d suggest removing the capital “ROOT”.
thanks man! just helped me not making the same mistake
@Nikoi
Thanks for your replying and clarifying.
I will rectify the statement and try to make it as clear as possible.
Hi. There is no download link for (NGcam-1.7-Poco-X3-v6-asus-library.xml) .
Please can you provide a link for that please.
Thank you and God Bless you.
Hello @Jean-Pierre
Okay you might not have pressed the dropdown box on the download page.
In the list you will find the file.
I have attached the a screenshot in the instructions field of the post.
Please look at that to understand better.
In Gcam 8.2 by parrot 043 there is no support for 0.8X which is ultrawide on poco x3. Please fix in next update.
