[Magisk Module] Enable RAW capture for GCam (A20 & A20e)

[TBM 13]

This Module enables RAW Capture on the Galaxy A20 and Galaxy A20e, and changes the camera Hardware Level from Limited to Full.

RAW Capture is required for most GCams to work.
For information about GCam, go to this thread.

How does it work?
It replaces the camera library located at /vendor/lib/libexynoscamera3.so with a modified one.

Prerequisites
- Magisk v20.4 or newer
- Android 11 vendor and kernel (Not compatible with versions of the Eureka Kernel older than 9.0)

Installation
Install as a normal Magisk Module, through Magisk Manager or TWRP.

Troubleshooting

• Camera doesn't work, shows Black Screen
  • Make sure you are using a compatible Android 11 kernel and vendor.
  • If this issue is happening after updating your firmware, please let me know.

great job, you should do one for the custom roms, i'm stuck on the samsung one cause this mod only works there, when i install in other roms the camera stops working

In which ROMs have you tried it? It should work on any as long as they use an Android 11 vendor and kernel.

i tried on all android 11 custom roms really, lineageos dotos etc

Did those ROMs ask you to flash a custom kernel/vendor? If that's the case i'd suggest to try in phhusson's AOSP GSI with stock Android R kernel and vendor.

I can't test it on my phone right now as i don't have enough free space to make a TWRP backup.

I installed the GSI version of dotos and It worked! Thanks

The kernel used by that ROM is using the camera drivers from Android Q, that's why it's not compatible with this module. You will have to use another kernel or build its kernel without this commit.

Edit: This module may work with the OneUI 3 variant of the Eureka Kernel, but you will most likely run into some issues. Feel free to try it and tell me if it worked or not.

Thread updated. Added module for the Galaxy A20e.

Version 2.1 of the module released, the biggest change is that there is no longer a need to change the Black Level in GCam settings, so GCams (or other camera apps) that don't have this option should now take photos without pink tint.

Full changes can be found here.

Hi, i am a member of the Eureka Team. As you may know, we make AOSP ROMs too, but we were using Q camera blobs on our vendor, till now, and we are going to switch to R camera blobs.
I'm wondering if we can use this module's library for our team's roms, we will credit you correctly. On our posts and etc.

If you use Android 10 with an 11 vendor it should work fine. I don't know if it's possible though, maybe with PHH's GSI.

Yes, the module should work on any A20 and A20e model. Install it through Magisk.
