Modern smartphones depend heavily on computational photography to take high quality pictures. The reason you're not getting high quality pictures is because you aren't using HDR+. GrapheneOS does support HDR+ via the Pixel Visual Core in compatible apps set up in a supported way.

Try building and using github.com/google/pixelvi. It should provide working HDR+ on the Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL with GrapheneOS. I haven't tested it for a while though. You can check if it's working by watching the `adb logcat` output for relevant information.

Pixel Visual Core is referred to as 'easel' in the logs, although it will also mention HDR+ (hdrplus) and gcam depending on the component. This is supported for all third party apps, but they need to use a clean / modern approach to using the camera API and compatible settings.

What camera app would you recommend to take advantage of the Pixel Visual Core? I cannot find the HDR+ option in the default GrapheneOS camera app on my Pixel 3 XL
