If your on a cutom rom check its change log if the rom dev did disable that option. If you are on a stock rom maybe you are on silent mode?

Hi mate, I'm on stock... And I'm not in silent mode, everything in my sound is max out... I just noticed today that my camera sound is gone as Im not always using the camera. I do't know if this is because of the BLFB Firmware update (currently Im still in BLFB)...
It seems that no one is experiencing this again... well that's Android... now I know..

In every operating system you'll find problems noone else seems to have encountered.
Do you mean the recording sound the device emits when going into Camera mode or the audio capture of the video?

Hi mate, I'm referring to shutter sound (The sound when you take a picture)... I like my camera to have shutter sound, I searched the web and everybody is asking how to disable shutter sound of S3 but mine doesn't have sound...
I'm not sure when did this happen but I know that there's a shutter sound when I last used it..
PS: I'm not even rooted mate, all is stock, current firmware is LFB...

The camera sound files are stored inside a system folder on your phone. I was going to say to check to see if the files are there and play them to ensure they aren't corrupt. However, if you are not rooted, you may not be able to access them.
If you reflash your current stock rom or update your rom to the latest version from Samsung, I believe that can fix your problems.

How can it be corrupted mate if I didn't do anything to my phone (Just regular use). Previously I also had a problem with OTA update and I needed to clear the data of Software Update for it to run again.
I'm really starting to believe that this is really a buggy piece of software (Android or maybe TW of Samsung)... Even the Accuweather widget is not auto refreshing if I restarted the phone and I need to clear again the data for it to auto refresh again or run normally.
Sorry I'm just frustrated
After doing everything I could (Except the Factory Reset), my camera shutter sound is still not working.
I tried to Clear the data of camera app, restart the phone, shutdown and reopen the phone, shutdown and remove the battery then reopen the phone, tried to uninstall some apps I recently installed, and still no shutter sound
I'm about to try today the "wipe cache partition" but first I tried again to shutdown and reopen my phone and guess what, now my shutter sound is back!
Only difference is currently I dont have any internet connection on my phone (No Wifi / Mobile data). Weird! :silly:

What the heck are you rooted. It sounds to me that things are getting out of hand. Best install a new rom or reflash.

Everything stock mate... Everything is working fine now... I guess this is a Touchwiz problem or worst this is an android thing. I searched the net and there are others experiencing this using different devices... Maybe this is an android bug, I'm not sure as it hard to replicate this problem and theres no accurate solution... :silly:
Check this if you are rooted
How to enable on/off button for Shutter sound:
Edit /system/csc/feature.xml with text editor of choice.
Add following lines:
<!-- Enable/disable the camera shutter sound -->
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Reboot, Voila, now you can enable/disable shutter sound from camera menu. (I'm on BLG8)

I'm also having this same problem...
Let me start from the beginning...
I got the phone from Vodafone Portugal. It came with the ICS rom, but right away I updated with the first polish JB rom. Also put root on it.
I'm constantly updating roms, so I tried most new roms that were releasing, mostly unbranded roms, from France, UK, India, etc... I did some dirty flashes but sometimes I flashed from the ground, full wipe...
Also, never used a custom rom for example...
I don't remember when did it happen, but somehow, camera stop making sounds, shutter sound and selection sounds... I also lost the sound setting from camera menu options...
I never, but never modified that aspect. And with a option do enable/disable sound shutter, why would I need to disable sound shutter with another method?!?!
A few weeks ago, I was on XELLA, and I added that camera line on the feature.xml file. No sounds I got...
By the way, the camera sounds are on a folder inside /system/ and they work perfectly , they are not broken
Today, I updated, dirty flash over XELLA, the new vodafone rom XERM2. I was with no hope to get the sounds...
I remember to check feature.xml on the system/csc folder to see if it was there, but the file was removed. I had a couple of modifications (including the line for the shutter sounds). So I restored an old backup that I had from the file. I set permissions and reboot.
I got a half surprise, guess what, I regain the Camera Sound settings from camera menu options.
The bad thing is that I still can't get any shutter or any other sounds from the camera app
Any ideas?!?! Please!!! I want Camera sounds back!!! Need help please!!!

Hello im getting a strange clicking sound on back of the phone, close to camera, im getting it wen i do factory reset and on the first menu it does that, and in Camera app when you change picture to movie and so on... Does any one else experience it?
It`s been reported in a few thread , some camera make the sound and some don't , it might be a different make or firmware version.
It`s just the camera focusing in the camera app, it also happens when you power up the phone, it`s initialising the camera.
Is camera focusing ok, have you tried it with close up object how close can you go.
Just to make sure it`s ok
I also notice that when i tilt device to landscape mode i have to wait about 3-4 sec... i dont think thats normal.

So i did install stock version of rom, wipe everything but same problem, click click sound in camera, and tilting phone landscape takes about 3-4 sec, i also notice crackling sound when making a call and using full volume on the phones speaker (not loud speaker)
Hi I installed Cerberus (remote locating software) for my S3. I have CF root, running on stock firmware LG8.
I used a zip to flash Cerberus (from the website) using CWM so I could get extra features which I did about 6 days ago. I tried to use Cerberusapp.com to test if everything is working today and it wasn't responding as it should. The feature I used was take an immediate pic using front camera.
I exited from the webapp and then tried to use the camera and it would open but then I was met with an error message saying Camera: failed or something similar to that and then the camera app would close.
I restarted the phone and camera was working fine. But now the keypad tones when you press back button, menu button, or when you swipe to unlock screen have disappeared.
Loudspeaker works when I play music and other things. Earpiece works when I make calls.
But the splish/splash sounds won't work at all. Also, when I boot the phone up, the sound the accompanies the Samsung animation boot logo doesn't play either.
How do I rectify this? I don't want to reflash with stick f/w through Odin if it can be avoided and if there is of course a simple fix.
Thanks
at a guess the app disables sounds so as not to alert the thief that you are taking photo of them. I would imagine the app developer is your best bet for a solution, but check and see if in system/media the app might of places a .nomedia file or some such disabling file

I think I'll have to e-mail the support team because it doesn't seem like it's intentional.
The keypad tones and sounds have gone but the shutter sound when taking a photo is still there. Also, why would it affect the sound on the boot animation?
Using rootexplorer I've looked through the system/media and other folders but there's no sign of anything that shouldn't be there.
It was all working as expected before this little error occurred. When taking pics using Cerberus the camera wouldn't make a sound but the key press sounds would still make a sound.
Anyway, thanks for your help, I'll give the developer a shout and if nothing can be resolved I might just reflash and do it all over again.
I don't know if anyone notice that after updating to 4.4.4,everything is awesome so far except some issues that i just noticed after updated mine this morning.
One major issue im facing is the reduced sound for notification on messages,emails etc.
Volume is set to max yet the sound of notification is greatly reduced.When i tried playing the tones in the library itself,the volume are just fine.They are reduced when notification is received.
Restarting the phone does not fix it. Anyone else experiencing the same?
One more issue is the lowered frame rate in camera mode. Its not as smoother as before update.It lags just like the camera mode on iphones. I still can take well photos though.
UPDATE : i actually did a factory reset and the camera lag indeed disappear! love the fast focus. Or you can just simply clear the camera data in setting and that should do the trick.
Also regarding the notification sound,try to pick a longer and striking ringtone as they tend to sound louder and noticeable even in reduced volume. Using the tone called Soft Bells which serves enough sound of alert.It solves my problem for now. Overall im happy with this update
You need to do wipe data , install a fresh Rom with factory data reset
it is recommended when update from one android version to another like ( 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 )
hmm is there alternative fix option? because i do not wish to go through the hassles of restoring everything..

Hardly anything about such things can be done when you're not rooted, sorry.
Camera frame rate slow
Yea, I've got the same problem too with the frame rate in the capera app after the update.

Is Factory data reset really solve this notification sound issue?
My Z2 with 0.314 firmware had same issue. and new firmware didn't fix it.
Same issue here before 4.4.4 it was really loud
After the update its really low sound, whats going on here? can anyone just confirm if installing a fresh rom solves this issue casue i dont think everyone in the world is gonna fix the issue by installing rom with flashtool...
My Z2 has had really low notifications from day 1 ive tried every single mod known to man also hoped with each new update SONY would fix it which will never happen as the y wont admit theres a problem
If we cant root 4.4.4 how can we apply this mod ?
Sony DOESN'T need to admit as prior to the 4.4.4 update, nobody was complaining about notification sound.

I rooted 4.4.2, installed xposed and viper4android, I cranked up my volumes and all is well. With headset off, I can lower the volume to the last step and it's still pretty loud. Maybe too loud lol.
Anyway, root is beautiful and viper4android is just a requirement for me since my galaxy s3. Look into it, wait for a rooting method and just mess with those sound options for now.
There might be a patch if it's really that bad still.
I think I'll wait for updating to 4.4.4 Thanks for the heads up.

That is not true. On my .314 driven Z2 the notification sound is lower when I get a message or something(I actually tested the thing many times to see if I was right and I was) than when I play the same notification tone in sound picker in settings with media volume taken to maximum. Call ringtones, on the other hand, they work the same, be it settings or nomal day usage.
So there is problem and do little research before you say something that is not truth because many people complained about that. But we didn't spam Sony with it enough so they don't care.
clear audio +
is clear audio helping out? i mean to say that even if there is no xloud included , is sound louder in clear audio + ?
Those mods are for further enhancement and not a remedy as there isn't any existing notification issue prior to 4.4.4
What do you mean further research? It's a fact that notification sound wasnt an issue for majority of users before 4.4.4, maybe I shouldn't blanket it to everyone and there's a sad 1% who claimed to have notification sound issues.

Hey everyone
I just got this phone and so far it's been cool and good, I really like it despite the display quality being off in perspective to my galaxy s6
Anyways, I digress, in the camera app I can turn the shutter sound off but it seems that any other third party app like Snapchat or Instagram keep this shutter sound
It's really bugging, I need it gone so I don't disturb people around me or something...
Things I've tried:
Screenshot sound off
Camera sound off from camera settings
Phone to silent
Phone to DND
All volume sliders to 0
Nothing works, any idea before I throw root on it and delete some files?
I didn't find anything that'd work.
Decided to unlock and install LOS 16.
All good now, except IR Camera and hotspot.

I'm pretty sure you can delete the file camera_click.ogg from system/media/audio/ui
Make sure to keep a backup first of the file in case something goes wrong.
Additional files related to camera sounds that may need to be deleted to are: camera_focus.ogg, videorecord.ogg, videostop.ogg
Hello everyone,my Mi 10 has very low volume on notifications (calls, notifications,alarms) although I've set it to max..Its too low sometimes i miss calls or messages..anyone else with the same problems?or any solution?
Try a louder ring tone? Have you cleaned the speakers recently? Could be anything.
I've tried everything,louder ringtone, I've played a video from YouTube for cleaning speakers but it's not the speaker its something from the ui because when i see a video from YouTube or gallery its so loud that i have to lower the volume...its like the system volume its low...
Access developer settings and activate "disable absolute volume control".
I have a niggling feeling that'll be it..

Thank you very much for your help, unfortunately can't find this settings in developer options..maybe they delete it in miui12... :/
The option is there. I have it myself. You need to scroll down a bit.
Nope can't find it... I'll attach a screenshot of my developer options
I don't have that option either. I'm on Global 12.2.1.0 Stable
I concur, it's definitely not there. In older versions it was the first option under the USB section, should have been under Bluetooth as in other phones..
Odd. Very odd. Obviously you've tried setting a known high volume ringtone as a notification and had the same low volume results? The only suggestion I have at the moment is to clear the cache of all apps and reboot.. See if it persists..
Yes...the same sound playing from music app its very loud...when i set it for call/sms/notification its very very low... :/ You suggesting to wipe everything from the boot screen?
If you are on stock rom you can wipe the cache from the security app or via fastboot.
If you are on custom rom you can either download an app to do it or do it via fastboot.
DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING ELSE. ONLY WIPE CACHE.

No im on stock rom,if i wipe the cache I'll loose data from all apps?
Edit:
Sorry for my mistake about loosing data,i cleaned the cache through security app did reboot but nothing...its clearly a bug because its only in system sounds that are low,as i said when playing the ringtone through music app is clearly louder...anyway thanks a lot @shivadow
In all honesty being on a custom rom is probably 99% of the problem. You can always investigate adjusting volume files in root, if at all possible. Some are, some aren't.

Hi try this app, This might work for you.
It will increase ringtone volume to 100% before receiving normal call.

Your friend faced the same issue?maybe something goes wrong when you do factory reset because my phone was like yours,i bought it 4 months old and did factory reset...Anyway,the only solution that I've settled is using an app from playstore "volume booster-speaker booster & Sound booster" and ot works for me,if you download the same app every now and then open it and exit because the system stops it..!(for example if you clear the recent apps from the tab)
