  •   Hello, I've a problem with Raw photos on lightroom. In gallery everything looks good, but when I'm importing raw to lightroom, colors are bad, desaturated and photo is darker. Please tell me how to fix it. I was trying everything. With jpg is ok, but is a problem with raw. I've a samsung S22 and export raw camera.

This is normal. RAW is the unedited data of the image. You shoot in raw because you want to edit those data yourself, so you can get the very best results and the results that you like best. But that means you still have to do some work! The gallery shows you previews that were generated by the camera app. These previews are edited with automatic routines, so they will look better than the unedited raw files.
