BigKaka's AGC9.2.14 V14 GCam mod, available here, now supports photosphere, all onboard cameras, and all modern V9 camera features on Pixel 9 series of phones. No need for a config (tested on my Pixel 9 Pro).

Previous GCam mods (I tried quite a few) either:

  • Weren't based on more recent GCam versions, so were missing features
  • Had working Photosphere but none of the other features worked
  • Only the main camera worked.
  • It just plain crashed on start.

To remind everyone, Photosphere was taken off from the Pixel 8-series onwards. While there were workarounds for Pixel 8-series users, Pixel 9 users have been stuck without it since launch.

As a big fan of the feature, I'm glad I can now use it again without having to switch between camera apps to take normal pictures or worrying about crashes.

This post highlights how shitty Google is about taking cool features away from paying customers.

Just how is it "Google propaganda"???

Edit: I see you had time to downvote the question but couldn't be bothered to answer it.

We will just have to assume your statement was total bullshit and you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, but please do feel free to correct that assumption if is incorrect!
