So I installed the AOSP camera via zip for Eclipse and it doesn't have an option to turn off the shutter sound. Can I rename the .ogg file like with other phones? Also, after taking a picture, there is about a 1.5 second delay where the image sits there before returning to the camera. How can I shorten this delay?

I wish I could set it so the photos I take are full screen, I just been taking pics with my epic and transfer them over via dropbox. I also wish we could turn off the shutter sound
Showing off photos on my tab looks much nicer when it takes the full screen instead of a box. On my epic I can set fullscreen and shut the shutter sound off.
I can't get third party camera apps to turn off their shutter sound. I have tried CameraZoom FX and ICS Camera both of which have a setting that allows your to turn the shutter sound on or off. On my Note the toggles dont do anything - when I take a picture I get an overly loud "Click". I realize that in certain countries you can't turn off the camera sound but I have never had that problem on my GS2 and the stock app on the Note has the same toggle which actually works - when I set it to silent there is no shutter sound. I prefer CameraZoom to the stock camera app but I would like to find a way to tone down or silence the camera shutter sound. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Or maybe someone can enlighten me on how to silence these third party app when snapping photos. Thanks.
There's nothing you can do to turn on/off the sound that I was able to find. Do a search in the forum (I can't remember the name of the sound file exactly) - but I just ended up renaming the shutter sound. I know when I'm taking a picture... and that shutter was so loud that it would make my dog wake up and bark. (He's a few bricks short of a house...)
Thanks. Glad to know I am not going crazy. I have seen threads for other phones about modifying the shutter sound file. Looks like I will be giving that a try on my Note.

Hey. I had this exact same issue. The file you want to rename (I amended it by adding ".bak" to it) is /system/media/audio/ui/shutter_01.ogg

Sweet that worked like a charm..now if only we could do the same for the notification sound that comes on in the middle of the night for "Phone fully charged. Please disconnect." Wakes me every time! I'm trying a few sound files but its a bit harder to test, as you can imagine. Any ideas?

Bingo.
To remove the notification sound for when the battery is fully charged, I renamed the following file: /system/media/audio/ui/TW_Battery_Caution.ogg , using velveteen71's method.
[Need Root Explorer, of course]

Nice! Good work.
I have been searching on XDA and google since putting JB on the phone for a fix for the camera shutter sound. I have found the shutter file in the /system/app and changed it to .bak. That must not be the correct file.
Has anyone been able to silence the shutter sound yet?
This might help you with the camera sound fix.

I just downloaded Camera JB+ from the playstore and can turn it off when I please.
I have a Mediapad X1 7D-501L running a B102 official ROM. The phone is rooted. The camera app has no option to silence the camera's shutter sound. I installed Camera FV-5 and unchecked the "Play Camera Sounds" options. However, a shutter sound is still produced whenever I take a picture. This app used to work fine on my Note 2 and Note 3. Of all the camera apps I tested so far this is the one I like the most, by far. Does anyone know a way to silence the camera for good with having to try other apps? Thanks.
Look into system/media/audio/ui there is a camera_click. Ogg
Rename it or move it. If that doesn't work, you need to create an audio file without sound and give it the same name........
Thanks! For those wanting to do the same, don't forget to restart your phone for changes to take effect.

To add the option of muting the shutter sound in stock camera, you need to edit the build prop as follows:
using any trusted root explorer, find /system/build.prop
Change the file properties from -rw-r--r-- (644) to -rwxrwxrwx (777) otherwise you can't save changes.
open the file and append: ro.hwcamera.sound.muteable = true
save changes, then revert properties back to -rw-r--r-- (644)
restart the phone and a new option to mute shutter sound should appear in the camera options.
Thanks a lot! :good:
Hello!
I'd like to get a version of the 3D camera APK that doesn't have such a loud forced shutter and focus sound effect.
I found a modded one, but the app will crash when the audio is enabled during recording. Though, I do enjoy the camera for having the JPEG compression set to 100, giving me a lot of quality.
Thank you for any help you can give c:
