Raw Dumper 2.0

After some BIG changes in the code architecture, logic and interface (needed in order to implement new crazy features 😀 ). Now it should be easier to add new and more complex features (like low light mode, setting picture size, switching between JPEG and RAW, etc).

Note 0: The app still requires ROOT
Note 1: The focus and white balance buttons are greyed out because they aren't ready yet!
Note 2: Zenfone 2 users with custom roms needs a patched camera lib
Note 3: I didn't have the opportunity to properly test the app on the Zenfone 5 and Razr I since I don't own these devices.
Note 4: I'm not responsible for bricked phones, broken phones/cameras/images or thermonuclear war

Original XDA Thread: here

Features:

  • Raw shooting on the Zenfone 2 (Zenfone 5 and Razr I needs more testing, but they should work)
  • Manual ISO, shutter speed and EV on some devices
    • Setting an invalid ISO/Shutter speed/EV combination is not possible (try setting ISO 50, 1/60s and -1 EV and see what happens)
  • (New) ISO and shutter speed metering
  • Touch to focus
  • (New) Better white balance algorithm (currently only for Zenfone 2's front camera)

Feature table:

Device EV Manual ISO ISO metering Manual shutter speed Shutter speed metering Raw capture
Zenfone 2 (ZE55*ML) Lollipop Stock Yes Yes Yes[1] Yes[2] Yes[1] Yes, both cameras[3]
Zenfone 2 (ZE55*ML) Lineage OS Yes Yes Yes[1] Yes[2] Yes[1] Yes, both cameras[3]
Zenfone 2 (ZE55*ML) Marshmallow Stock Yes Yes Yes[1] Yes Yes[1] Yes, both cameras[4]
Zenfone 5 (T00F) Yes Yes Yes No Yes Yes, both cameras
Razr I (XT890) Yes Yes No No No Yes, rear camera only

[1] Rear camera only
[2] No long exposure available
[3] Requires a patch to enable raw capture using the rear camera
[4] The front camera uses a trick in order to work

Known bugs:

  • (Minor) The space between the buttons is too small when the shutter is set to 1/10000
  • (Minor) When displaying dialog alerts, the app can get out from fullscreen state if the user switches to another app and then comes back
  • (Minor) The touch focus feedback sometimes appears in the wrong position
  • (Minor) The selector interface for ISO/shutter speed/EV is quite buggy sometimes
