GUIDE Sensor AWB Extraction

[rakinthegreat]

Google AWB has been an important feature of most of the recent GCam Mods out there. From observations, it has been gathered that Sensor AWBs work much more accurate than others for the specific sensor. Previously the method for extracting AWB values was quite difficult for ordinary users. However with recent developments, it has grown to be quite easy.

If you want to extract your sensor AWB, you must have:
* Tuned Binaries from your Phone
Tuned Binaries: In the operating system, the OEMs put binaries containing Color Correction Transform, White Balance Values and other important things that are used in taking a proper photograph. The binaries we need here are located inside /vendor/lib64/camera directory. The names of the binaries usually start with com.qti.tuned and end with .bin extension. These bins are what we need. 

So how can we find these bins:

1. Option (Requires Root): On your rooted phone, open a file explorer that can utilize root access and navigate to the /vendor/lib64/camera  directory. From there look for the bin files starting with com.qti.tuned and copy them to a normal directory. After that, copy them to your PC.
   
2. Option: Visit this site where the OS Dumps are hosted. Try to find your OEM and locate the dump of your device. Next locate your tuned bins in /vendor/lib64/camera  directory. Download them in your PC and we will use them later.
   

The next step is downloading the TunedLibExtract Software. This is made by Sergey Rivov. Download the latest exe under assets from his Github Releases. Put the executable and your tuned binaries in the same folder.

You have to now drag and drop each of your bins on top of the executable file. You'll notice that txt files are generated after each sensors. You can send the files to developers to add your AWB profile. 

Open the text files in a text editor and look for AWB in Java  and you can submit them to Morgenman's AWB Spreadsheet by this Google Form.

Congrats! You are done!

Hey, is there a way to download the "IMX586_SEMCO" AWB from the 29/3 Arnova build to use on the latest one? I can't find any link to download AWB files to use on GCam. It was awesome on the 8T, way more color accurate than the stock op one on both main and UW lens.

Thanks for the tool, I've extracted a few AWB files from some sensor to try out. However whenever i load the txt on the latest Arnova build, it just crashes. Do i need to format the txt in some specific way for it to work?

Not really. Are you sure you loaded the correct txt file? A crash log would be helpful as well
