Help Can't disable camera noise

[00grimy]

In my camera settings, there is only a choice of 4 different sounds, with no "off". Seems a bit absurd. Anyone have this problem? Virgin Mobile version.

are you rooted?

 

[00grimy]

Nope :/

are you rooted?

What do you have to do if you are rooted?

What do you have to do if you are rooted?

I use Camera Zoom.
The one for my camera noise is system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
Rename to camera_click.bak

If you are using the stock, it should be one of the other camera or shutter sound files.

And what if you're not?

Then you are somewhat stuck.

There is a free app in the app store called "Good Camera" that has some silence options that work on this phone. The pictures it takes may not be as quality as the camera app that comes on the phone, but I'm not sure. I haven't looked at it that close. It also allows you to take a quick silent picture from clicking the icon.

I deleted all the camera shutter noises in /system/media/audio/uI but the camera still makes a shutter noise. Anyone have any other ideas?

Try the modified stock camera app:

All of the cam snap, cam click?

Yep, everything.

I had this tread book marked and I forgot how I fixed it on my phone. Just rename the "camera_click.ogg" to "camera_click.bak"

The camera shutter sound is inside the camera.apk
