camera API2 mod: is DNG working for you?

Hi guys,
I've modded the camera by adding a setting to build.prop: 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1'
This unlocked nicely Camera 2 API, that was confirmed by Manual Camera Compatibility app (all green).
Now I can use for example Lightroom camera for manual settings, but when I choose DNG as the forat to save it crashes Lightroom app.
The FV-5 camera does not even allow me to choose DNG. So is this phone capable of using DNG?
I'm on MIUI Global 8.2 stable.
I have enabled Camera API2 on my phone but Lightroom can't import the DNG, even those capture by Lightroom.
I use Photo Mate R3. It work very well.
Use the Adobe DNG Converter

Just have enabled the Camera API2 on build.props and use any camera software that capture raw. I use ProShot to capture and Pro Mate R3 to edit.

Gotcha!
So this is what is going on: Indeed, any camera capable of API2 produce DNG files. Lightroom too. But, Lightroom camera crashes when saving DNG and cannot read them (even that it captured it itself). Pro Mate R3 can read it indeed. DNG files are invisible in Google Pictures, they are only visible in file explorer (or capable applications like Pro Mate R3).
Lightroom can capture and process DNGs using front camera. This is about Lightroom 2.3.2
Thanks for clarification!

P20 pro raw photos not working on third party apps

Dear all,
I noticed that I cannot use any third party app to capture RAW photos. I tried Footej Camera, Open Camera, Adobe Lightroom, VSCO, Lumio Cam and everything I could find. I cannot enable raw photos with any of them. Footej support contacted me and told me that they can try to find a workaround from the log file I generated, it seems that this phone does not support Android API. Do you guys have any knowledge about this?
The only app that seems to record some sort of RAW file is Bacon Cam, but this does not have support for the telephoto lens, and all the raw photos with zoom, are actually cropped from the 40 mpx sensor.
Freedcam can do raw: https://t.me/joinchat/BdeA6xCXJ-DvG0wT_kjW-A
Even the stock camera app will not give you a raw file from the telephoto lens. You can't use zoom when you enable RAW in Pro mode.
Thank you, I tried Freed am and unfortunately it does not let me use raw mode, only jpeg.

No, the moving images. This is called Motion Photo I think on a pixel 2 and up. There is a toggle for it in the top bar in Google Camera. Samsung has a similar feature. It is called Live photos in iOS I think and it was called living images on Nokia Windows phones, and continue to live on HMD Nokia phones.
