If you want to try Expert RAW on your Galaxy S21 Ultra, you could just download the APK from somewhere and install it. It works just fine.

Expert RAW gives you a higher-fidelity DNG file along with Samsung's HDR multi-frame processing applied. It works with all four cameras on the S21 Ultra. You can then push the files in Lightroom to change White Balance, colors, exposure, and whatever else you'd want. Just keep in mind you need to apply Samsung's profile in Lightroom in order to get the HDR processing.
