Can anybody tell how to fix not working mi2 raw camera on lg g2 d802 with lollipop 5.0.2 stock

[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
why don't you read the thread?

mi2raw doesn't work on lollipop roms and raw doesn't work on lollipop because there is no new camera api support yet...

if you want raw - stick to kitkat...

btw afaik, this project is dead... no word from OP/developer for a long time now - we can just hope that he's ok and that nothing happened to him in private life...

cheers
[G2 Themes and Apps] defcomg:
raw works in freedcam even on lolipop
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
that app is the most user un-friendly app i've come across so far...

and i doubt it's the full real raw... but that's just me...
[G2 Themes and Apps] defcomg:
lol what do you mean by full real raw ? raw is raw

and what can be done to improve its "user un-friendly"-ness
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
it's just fishy to me because it's known that LG G2 doesn't support new camera api's - that's why we don't have raw in xdabbeb's camera on lollipop... (although i think [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] is trying to overcome this somehow - he'll know better)

better UI... easier settings... it's just ugly, sorry... (at least it was the last time i tried to use it)

i'm not a noob, especially in camera apps testing - and that app confused me a lot when i opened it

i.e. see LG stock camera app (or G3 ported one) and it's UI, see new Snapdragon camera's UI - that's what i call a user friendly UI...

btw don't get me wrong - mi2raw also didn't have a nicest UI, but it was 10x easier to use... just a personal review - nothing else...
[G2 Themes and Apps] progene81:

[G2 Themes and Apps] rajkatiyar07:
Freedcam UI score is equals to your sarcasm level i think :D Sorry , but really you should give a try freedcam , On lollipop it provide a RAW option and UHD recording without flashing any additional binaries. Freedcam raw+ adobe lightroom mobile = You will be go insane XD
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
sorry, but i just don't like the apps with bad UI... it may be good under the hood - but when i see it's user interface - it makes me want to uninstall it instantly - which i did...

and if i really want to enjoy full benefits of RAW photography - i'll use my dslr camera :)

btw snapseed also supports RAW/DNG editing since last version ;)

Wonderful :)

I have been waiting for something like this for a long time

You can open the DNG file on Windows 7 after you install "Adobe DNG Codec 2.0". You can find it on Google, i'm apperently too new here to post a direct link for you

After you install it, right click on the .dng file and click Open with->Windows Live Photo Gallery

From there i exported it to a .tiff file for processing with GIMP
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
what's the use of raw then if you convert the dng format to any bitmap compressed file (tiff, jpeg, png...) before you edit it as raw in a raw editing software?

i don't see the point
[G2 Themes and Apps] Georgije2:
You can edit it in RAW editing software if you want

but even if you don't, you get a picture that isn't blurred by LG's built-in noise cancelling algorithms
[G2 Themes and Apps] vizi05:
Thanks for info!
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
you missed my point, or were you replying to the other guy?
[G2 Themes and Apps] Georgije2:
Ah sorry, i was replying to leald

What i mentioned was just the simplest way to view the raw file on Windows. For specialized editing you need other software, as you mentioned

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

To the author: Do you have any plans of supporting very long exposures for night scenes with this app?
[G2 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Raw workflows obviously don't work like that.. You do the majority of the denoising, roatation, color balance, exposure, leveling etc in the software. Many raw workflow apps can even remove things like red eye, blend blemishes, etc, so unless you're doing some really detailed work it's actually not that frequently you need to do any post editing.

If you need to edit pixels, ie: fix something you couldn't in your raw app, you'd probably output to tif, do the edits, then output to your final format.

Personally 99% of the time I can do it all in my raw workflow app, Aftershot Pro.

That all said, I haven't tried mi2raw at all yet.. It's installed, I've launched it, but haven't tried to take any pictures with it yet.

long story short

http://www.thephoblographer.com/2011/09/26/are-tiffs-and-raws-really-the-same-thing/

on my dslr camera, when i shoot in raw format it gives me much more editing capabilities in adobe lightroom (exposure, shadow adjusts, sharpness, color tone...) than it does with tiff or especially jpeg formats...

Wow my G2 turn into PRO Camera :laugh:

Use these to convert to .jpg

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tssystems.rawdecoder
[G2 Themes and Apps] solfx:
The DNG contains a small thumbnail (240x180). Unfortunately, I haven't seen yet an Android app which capable of using this thumbnail for preview purposes (maybe I'll integrate in the future such feature in the app). But keep in mind that this preview isn't the decoded raw itself, it is the image from the camera preview from a moment before a picture was taken.

Pulling both raw & OEM's processed jpg is so far not possible.

Regarding low light:

Try

NeatImage

plug-in for Photoshop. If calibrated properly (there is a tutorial for this), you will be amazed by the result.

AFAIK, it is not supported by the HAL. I'll check what I can do.

Tiff and DNG are only the wrappers for the data (like mov, mp4, avi files which wrap a certain video codec bytestream).

DNG is the successor of Tiff 6.0 and adds some features to it. A feature that is available in DNG and not in Tiff is raw wrapping (with everything that comes with it).

What is raw? People sometimes

mistakenly

think that uncompressed pictures, pictures without denoise or pictures with less contrast are raw.

Actually, when we mention raw in photography context, we mean the CFA (color filter array) image that comes directly from the sensor at the max bit depth the platform allows and most important - it is linear.

CFA image lets you choose your preferred demosaic algorithm + defected pixel correction algorithm

Higher bit-depth gives you more latitude for extracting details which are quantized when switching to 8-bit.

Linear image is the image before the gamma is applied. It is the only way you can really manipulate white balance and color matching (you can even try to match you colors to be Nikon-like for instance).

Basically other algorithms come after performing the above, so they are equivalent to working on 16 bit tiff.

I know you might be familiar with parts of what I wrote or maybe even with all of that, but I've tried to show the big picture to fall in line and maybe it will be helpful to other users :)

And of course this is a brief top view of the things, so there are few inaccuracies just to make things simple.

Should work on D800. Have you tried?

I suggest to use this app for preview only. Much better results can be achieved with Photoshop.

Huge thanx for the new raw cam app!

The best DNG viewer for Android that I found is

Adobe Photoshop Express

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.psmobile

Supports both the compressed and normal DNG files and is fast.

Also includes a few filters and editing tools, some are in-app purchases though.

The problem is that APE does not see the DNG files in the gallery or the cam app either.

But it works well as a default viewer for the DNG files when opened from a file explorer like Astro file manager.

so i take a picture and anything that is a blue light is red for some reason. my first time messing with raw images
[G2 Themes and Apps] solfx:
Incredible results! Can I post on the Google+ page?

Again, the raw images are absolutely untouched - i.e. they are the input for OEM DSPs. The corners should be corrected with Lens-Shading-Correction (aka vignetting correction) which will bring the entire image to same brightness level. After that the corners should be more denoised because digital amplification was applied on them in the previous step...

White balance?

exist one gallery to look this photo in lg g2?
[G2 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
There are suggestions in this thread already on how to view and process the images. There is one app which can view it, presumably on the phone, but it'd be really slow.

Other options you send the phone to the computer to process. This is the whole point of shooting RAW; the ability to manipulate the image without loss.

This all said; it'd be nice if this store an accompanying jpg shot so that you could look at picture you've shot on the phone. Although sadly, then people would probably just use those images as-is and not process the raw files, missing the entire point.
[G2 Themes and Apps] alessa:
So let's say that this aplication is more useful to professional at "normal" users?
[G2 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
I don't put "camera phone" and "professional" anywhere near the same place.

But anyway, if you want to post selfies on tw*tter, this isn't the app for you. If you want to squeeze every bit of what the camera can do and you're willing to put some work into the output to process them properly, this might be for you.
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:

[G2 Themes and Apps] alessa:
I understand, I am not at all the kind selfie, but I'm no longer a pro photo.

image are clearer and colors are good.

this camera RAW really interests me, but I did not want to waste time working on each picture taken ... shame ... but bravo for your work and I hope that there will be an application that provides everything that I ask ...

[G2 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
So I guess this isn't really compatible with my ROM or something. I finally got a chance to try it and when I take a picture the preview stays on the view forever until I exit the app and all that's created is a 240x180 pixel dng file of about 130k.

Timer and HDR

It's amazing what you've developed here. I have a couple of suggestions for the next update.

1)You could add a self timer for taking crisp photos, RAW could definitely benefit from eliminating the minute shake when used along with a tripod.

2)The shutter speed and iso selected by the software could be shown real time as opposed to selecting AE lock.

3)Could RAW HDR be included similar to the way Pentax K-3 does. Or maybe bracketing?

Would definitely make photography as a whole even more immersive with these inclusions. :)
[G2 Themes and Apps] defcomg:
Number 2 is impossible until Android L Currently Does not have an api for that and exif interface seems to only read JPEG metadata. The only Other way is a build prop line that dumps metadata into a bin file but that needs ZSL to be enabled and if that's enabled raw does not work.

try this for high iso noise take the picture the enable ae lock cover the lens with something black

I just use my phones case take a dark image then in Photoshop copy the dark image and place it into a layer above your normal image on dark/black image layer set blending mode to difference.

it should take care of most the noise

[G2 Themes and Apps] solfx:
Interesting approach, it might help mostly with dead ("burnt") pixels. Because the majority of the noise is random in the temporal term, this method can also add more noise on the other hand. Can you share a result you have achieved with this?

Exif is saved :) For more comprehensive Exif data, shoot when AE is locked.

I Will shoot some night images I usually set ISo 400 then cover the camera lock we forces camera to use 1sec exposure not a lot of noise.

I tried shooting stars ISo shot up to 5668 locked ae shot black frame did the difference method in PS interestingly enough it did make the image dark less noiser but when zooming in and taping the eye icon you can see it adds noise also but less noticeable. LUMA Noise sucks

RawTherapee keeps crashing after updating it handled noise way better PS and has Dark Frame Subtraction at Demosaic Stage.

about exif would locking and unlocking ae after pressing shutter work

lock

Capture

unlock
[G2 Themes and Apps] akshaypatil869:
The best way to get rid of luminance noise is by taking 10 photos of the same scene (with ae lock selected). The downside is that the subject should be still and so should be the phone. After taking the photos, load them into stack as layers and then select median.

I made a shutter release where I use a usb mouse connected to the phone via otg. This helps a lot for me.
[G2 Themes and Apps] 60nine:
