Help How do I disable the shutter sound?

Jeez tell us noobs how to root and ill get right on that, boss

I didn't mean to sound bossy.. I'm sorry if I did. I used Framaroot 1.5.1 (attached) and it worked like a charm. Used the Gandelf method I believe. It's just an apk file you run and it does it from the phone. No computer needed.

I used root explorer but I'm sure it can be done with others. First go into system folder then to a folder called csc, look for feature.xml then press and hold it until the sub menu pops up now press on "open in text editor" , in text editor look for "CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false<" once you find it delete false and type in true so it would look like this "CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true<" then back out and save and exit. Now restart your phone and in the settings in camera now there's the option to turn shutter sound on or off.
