I get rid of the shutter sound, but still have issue with focus sound. Is anyone know how to disable it?
Thanks.
Well, it looks like it's gone in JB, but assuming you're in ICS and rooted:
Using Root Explorer, navigate to \system\media\audio\ui, mount it R/W, and rename the appropriate .ogg file. (Example: Camera_focus.ogg --> Camera_focus.OLD
Hope this is helpful.

Sup all, I have been tring to change my startup/shutdown sounds and I followed some f the other threads but with root explorer when I go into system/etc/poweron.wav but there is no poweron.wav file. I also tried to paste one there but it wouldn't take. I use verizon blackehole 4.3 rom. Any answers anyone? Thanks
/system is mounted as read-only by default. You need to have it mounted as read/write to be able to paste/push files to /system.
how d I mount it as read/write?

I did as you said but still no results, did nt paste so I tried to power off and no sound. I have noticed that on another rom I tried it had sound but I just cant get this rom to sound.

in \System\Media\Audio\ui\ replace the file "shutdown.ogg" with your own .ogg sound. If you need a program to convert a sound file to .ogg, there are plenty, but I personally prefer Audacity.
Hello, this is my first post on XDA
in the "Development" section I've read about a camera mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104051.
It add some good feature to the camera stock app like:
Records Audio in 192kbps/44.1Khz quality (CD Quality) rather than stock (64kbps/16khz quality)
Increased Video Bitrate in 1080 and 720p modes* (See 2nd post for info and download link for this version)
I would to try this hack, but I am confused on witch APK to download and use, the Potatoman and the hyperX-'s release are identical or not?
i believe there is only one mod as of right now. The mod you posted above is based off of the original and does nothing but improve the camera. Safe to say this is THE mod to use my friend!

Thank you!
So I can download the modded APK from here without problems? Is it THE mod?
You can dl it from here or glash one of the fantastic roms that have it included.
Now I am trying to install the camera hack on my phone, I renamed the original Camera.apk in Campera.apk.bak and copied the hacked Camera.apk in /system/app, but when I try to execute it to install, the installation starts but it ends with message "Application not installed", why?
What'is my error?
I use Root Explorer...
You don't have to install it after copying to system/app, just copy, then set permissions correct and reboot..

Thank you, now I try, but witch are the correct permissions?!?
EDIT: I set permissions to rx-r--r-- like the original app, now it seems work!
I recorded a video at 720p with the hacked Camera.apk, I controlled media info with VLC and with Windows Explorer "Property->Details" tab, the value they show are 11880 kbps for the video bitrate and 16 kHz, 60 kbps, mono for audio. I think that there are the value for a video recorded with default app, or not?
Help pleaseee!!!

You must have rooted your phone and you must use a file manager like Root Explorer!
i know, my phone is rooted and have root explorer installed. But i can't paste anything on system/app from my file/download, i could just move files around in my file

Mount the filesystem in R/W mode (read and write), default setting is RO (read only), use the button in the upper side of the screen.
i know this step, i mean, how do you paste the .apk to system/app from the bluetooth folder in my file? because i use bluetooth to transfer the .apk into my phone, but i have no idea how to paste it into root explorer, seems like i can only move it around to those folders in my file. i know i am such a noob, sorry for asking so many silly questions.

You must navigate throught your phone's filesystem with Root Explorer, find the folder where the file Camera.apk is (I think it is /sdcard/bluetooth) copy the file and paste it in /system/app (all operation of copy/move/paste are possible with Root Explorer).
I hope I help you, I'm Italian and I'm not a native speaker of English...
i am not native english speaker either, haha
i am from Hong Kong
i am gonna try it, but i messed it up this afternoon and i had to reset everything on my phone lol because the camera didn't work
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!
(do I need to convert the mp3 to an OGG file?)
I'm pretty sure it takes an mp3 file? Just put your mp3 file at /system/media/ and name it "boot_audio.mp3"
The instructions are repeated under Rom Control > General UI (they're greyed out under "disable call volume")
Ahhhhh I made a folder boot_audio.mp3, lol. Now the only system/media folder I have is in the ROM zip itself. Is that the one I put it in and reflash?

or just put the file itself into that folder in the phone. adb, root explorer, or any other root access file explorer.
Cool, I think this is in my wheelhouse.

Well I thought I had it but when I was checking my failed work I noticed that my" boot_audio.mp3" is now a " boot_audio.mp3.ogg". I used Ghost Commander to move the file.
Just to clarify it isn't or is the system/media from the ROMs zip itself?
Thanks again, this battle is now a personal challenge, lol.
Ok, this is what you do.
1. Find an mp3 file you like (MP3 file, not an Ogg Vorbis file)
2. Name it "boot_audio.mp3" (case-sensitive)
3. Copy it into /system/media/ on your actual phone (NOT in the ROM zip unless you want to have to reflash your zip)
4. Change the permissions of the file to rw-r--r--.
5. Go to Settings > ROM Control > General UI and make sure that "Disable Boot Audio" is UNCHECKED
6. Reboot.
Thanks for the total walk through. Got it working this morning!

marked in red is only in AOKP. So unless you know that the user is running AOKP, this is unnecessary
Just an FYI post.
Is there a way to increase the volume of the boot_audio.mp3? Mine is playing ridiculously low for some reason.

I think the boot sound volume fix is already been applyed,the best fix is in the build prop: persist.sys.boot_volume=100. that's the loudest i, think it can get until the AOKPs find a way to increase it some other way. But as far as my understanding of this its a temporary hit and miss kinda deal. I maybe wrong here,if I am I'm sorry for the missleading post and will remove and or edit with correct info...(if needed but I think I'm right...lol..lol )

Not on the phone. You would have to load that mp3 into an audio editing program on a computer and increase the volume of the file itself.
HI, I'm also looking into increasing my boot audio volume I took a look at the build prop. But I can't find this line (persist.sys.boot_volume=100) anywhere do I just edit the file and write it into there? I'm running AOKP 7.3 also. PS I have used sound forge and Increased my Volume 1000% I only here a little Difference. Sorry If this Isn't the right place to ask this.
I did some looking around, but none of the guides I found seem to work. I'm basically trying to rename an audio file to kill the camera click, but found an issue that might give me problems later with other things I might want to do.
Each time I try renaming the file, the file renames itself back to its original name after I reboot the phone. For example, if I add .bak or an extra space in the file name, it disappears once I reboot.
I'm using ES File Explorer on my stock, rooted Sprint HTC One. I mounted the /system path as R/W, and the file is /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg.

Its because android need these file onboot, to make the camera make a different noise, get a camera_click.ogg file from a different rom and just replace it in the system, and set the permissions to the previous one. Use root browser lite.

Thanks for the input! I'll find a silent .ogg file to substitute in. Do I have to use root browser or can this be done with ES?

Yes, you can use es, but root browser handles things like this alot better
Disable the Camera's annoying Shutter Sound on your Verizon Galaxy S4 with NC5 KitKat:
I found some inspiration here.
This requires you understand how to edit files on your /system partition which is normally read-only. So, you'll have to know how to mount /system with "rw" permissions. If this makes no sense to you, then this mod isn't for you.
Enable RW on /system in your favorite root explorer. I used ES File Explorer (so, with that you click the upper left icon, scroll down to "Root Explorer" and make sure it is "ON". Then, press on the "Root Explorer" words themselves to the left of the "ON" button, press on Mount R/W and go turn on RW for /system in there.) If you don't do this, don't bother with the rest of the steps.
Now you can navigate to: /system/csc/
Open: feature.xml
Edit it. (I used ES File Explorer's built in editor, which you have to put into edit mode.)
Scroll down to the <!-- Camera --> section, maybe 1/5th of the way down.
Find where it says:
Code:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Change the false to: true
It'll look like this when you're done:
Code:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Reboot. You should be good to go.
(Personally, I went further. I renamed the camera related audio files from /system/media/audio/ui/, I booted into SafeStrap Recovery and wiped the Dalvik cache and the main cache. Probably a little overkill, but I really hate that shutter sound. I don't want it.)
Now, I have a "Shutter sound" option buried in the camera's normal settings. (Open camera, click the gear icon, click the gear icon again, and if you still have a gear icon tab, you need to go to that gear icon tab and scroll down. The "Shutter sound" option is the second to last entry and you can turn it off. Yay!
If this helped you, click Thanks.
Thanks for your guide works great on my Note 3.

not working on samsung neo I9301
Hi,
didn't work with Samsung Galaxy Neo I9301, stock rom I9301IXXUANF2 4.4.2. It hasn't a feature.xml in system/csc and adding the parameter in others.xml has no effect
other ways to disable the shutter sound over the kamera gear options ?
regards,
Frank
The only thing I could think of would be to pull system through add and search all the files on your computer for files that contain the term shutter to see if there is an equivalent.
