Hey everyone, so i never really post mods or anything, and I'm not sure if this truly constitutes a mod, because it's just a simple copy paste job, but here are all of the files to copy to your V20 in order to have a silent camera and video camera.
**MUST BE ROOTED**
Every noise that's associated with the camera apk will be gone with no flashing of any kind! All you're doing is simply replacing all of the files on your device with the ones in the attached zip file! Your camera will now be completely silent without having to use a modded camera apk or flashing any sort of files in twrp.
(New Method provided by stangdriver. can flash his file Silent_Camera.zip in twrp if you'd rather flash than manually copy/paste!)
Instructions:
1.) Download the attached zip file
2.) Extract and copy all 15 files to system/media/audio/ui. Make sure permissions are set to rw-r-r correctly
3.) Reboot
Alternate Instructions (thanks to stangdriver!)
1.) download Silent_Camera.zip
2.) Flash in TWRP
3.) Reboot to system
done!
Now you've got a completely silent V20 camera! Instructions 1:http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/593c8892b4fad/V20SilentCameraFiles.zip
Instructions 2:

Not sure if you or maybe users viewing this thread are interested, but I made a zip installer that replaces the files and sets permissions by just flashing in recovery.
These are not my files, just used the donwload from the OP and made a flashable zip.
So users can either use the instructions from above or flash the attachment from below.
If you do the manual way as posted above, make sure and set permissions for the new files to 644 (rw-r--r--)
Good luck and enjoy the silent camera!
good tip, stang! I'll post your file in the op as well!

Thank you.
Zip works great on my h910. Thanks for this.
Mod works great!
Do you know if there is a way to keep music playing while using camera app? (Like Google Camera)
Thank you very much
This also, works for the LG V30. Thanks.

Works well. Instead of flashing zip, I extact into the ui folder and overwrite all the files. Make copies of original if you want to backup.
Hello what root browser do you use ? i have solid explorer and i have issues
Hello what root browser do you use ? i have solid explorer and i have issues settings the permits i want change the power on, shut down sounds but the solid explorer is not working even with root allowed, so maybe is just my explorer ? or how i set the chmod permission?

So after using the Samsung Galaxy S II for over a month now I've had one complaint. In-Call Volume using the handset ear piece. It was "OK" in quiet places but anywhere else...way below par.
So, after looking around for several weeks trying to find a fix I finally got help from a well know dev (Entropy512) as well as using system/lib audio files from Designgears ROM 'Perception'.
So...how do you finally get your in-call volume increased?
First and foremost...Always backup whatever you're changing. Better safe than sorry. Just make a copy of your current system/lib folder, rename it something like 'backup_lib' and place on your sd card somewhere.
Option 1
Download this flashable zip, flash it in CWM, Reboot, Enjoy. (This zip includes some audio files from the Perception ROM, if for any reason DesignGears has an issue with this PM me and I will remove the zip. I'm only using the files to help others solve their in-call volume issue)
MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE FLASHING
Download the Flashable Update Here
I have tested this on three different SGSII's and all seems well! This is a NO WIPE flash, I do reccomend clearing your Dalvik Cache and Cache Partition though.
-Reboot into Recovery
-Scroll down to 'Advanced' and select
-Select "clear Dalvik Cache"
-Flash this update
-Reboot your phone and enjoy!
Option 2 (Incase the flash doesn't work or I am asked to remove the the zip file)
1) Download Designgears ROM 'Perception' Found Here
2) Open the zip file of your current ROM (doesn't matter what ROM)
3) Open the system folder and then open the system/lib folder (of your current ROM)
4) Next, Open the same folder in the Perception ROM
5) Copy the files listed below from the Perception ROM and paste them over the files in your ROM:
- lib_Samsung_Acoustic_Module_Llite.so
- lib_Samsung_Resampler.so
- lib_Samsung_Sound_Booster.so
- libaudio.so
- libaudioeffect_jni.so
- libaudioflinger.so
- libaudiohw_op.so
- libaudiohw_sf.so
- libaudiopolicy.so
- liblvvefs.so
- libmediayamaha.so
- libmediayamaha_jni.so
- libmediayamaha_tuning_jni.so
- libmediayamahaservice.so
- libsamsungAcousticeq.so
- libsamsungSoundbooster.so
- libsoundalive.so
- libsoundpool.so
- libSR_AudioIn.so
- libyamahasrc.so
*Only copy/replace the files listed above as they are only audio files. DO NOT COPY/REPLACE all system/lib files... You'll have unwanted consequences and you'll probably kill a puppy.
6) Now go to the Perception ROM and open system\app and find phone.apk. (Save a copy of your current phone.apk...Just in case)
-Copy (Perception's) phone.apk and replace the phone.apk on your current ROM.
7) After you replace the files listed above on your ROM, reflash your ROM and enjoy your increased call volume.
Note: If you don't want to reflash your ROM and risk losing any settings, you should be able to copy the files and replace them with Root Access and a file explorer, then Reboot your device immediately after. I haven't tried this yet so if someone wants to try and leave feedback, please feel free.
EDIT: Copying the files using a root explorer does work but may cause your phone to crash/reboot afterwards. I'd still recommend just re-flashing the ROM to avoid potential issues. Once again, make sure and make a back up so you can revert any changes if something doen't work properly.
I will try uploading a zip file with appropriate files so you can download but currently I do not have Designgears permission. This is their code and I don't want to step on any toes.
EDIT: I have tried reaching out to DG for permission but had no luck, if he asks that I remove the zip file, I will do so.
Known Potential Issues:
- When flashing over a stock/rooted ROM this update may cause the phone application to crash/force close. I have tried this update personally on every ROM I could flash and haven't had any issues. However, I have not tried it on the stock ROM. If you're on stock/rooted, please make a backup so if it does cause issues you can simply revert the changes.
Much thanks goes to Entropy512 for the help with solving this issue and Designgears ROM 'Perception'. Using Perception showed me that increasing the in-call volume was possible! (it's a very stable and awesome ROM as well )
***UPDATE***
Due to some people being a worried about flashing the update I have taken the liberty of making the backup files for you and making them flashable!
- I have made revert files for all of the major ROM's we currently have for our device. I did not include Perception because that ROM is where the audio files originated from. Below is the download links for the backups.
IF my volume fix does NOT work, simply download the backup for your ROM and flash it. It will revert all the changes my fix made.
- Revert_CM7.1_Stable
- Revert_H8s2_1.2.2
- Revert_Serendipity_8.2
- Revert_Stock_UCKH7
- Revert_UnNamed_1.2
- Revert_MIUI 1.11.4 v1
- If you are using Perception ROM you do NOT need the volume fix as this ROM has the files built in
As a side note, I have tried this on several I9100 ROM's as well and had luck with them all.
If this thread helps, please click the thanks button for me, I'm new to the XDA community.
Any I9100 ROM should work here for the libs - however:
Your mic will be screwed up for outgoing audio unless you change the Samsung Noise Reduction settings. (DG forced this in Perception, I believe he did it in an APK somewhere and not in the libs.)

I just tried a call and you're correct, the mic isn't working properly. Do I need to find the APK or do you know what changes I need to make? This is a popular issue and I'm hoping this thread can help.
Edit: I found some APK's....any idea which one would deal with the mic?
-CallSetting.apk
-Phone_Util.apk
-Phone.apk
-Settings.apk
Ahahaha, good thing I made a backup before pasting, but pasting the files in root explorer does work, however your phone will crash and reboot, but it is louder.
Doesn't work on the apk :v

Try copying the CallSetting.apk as well (use both). If you still don't have any luck with fixing the mic issue and you're using a file manager to make the switch, try re-flashing your ROM with the apk changes instead.
Make a backup before doing it so you can restore all your settings if it doesn't work for some reason.

IF I can get approval from Designgears to use some sources from his ROM I shouldn't have any issues putting this into a zip file for everyone. I've reached out to DG, just awaiting a response

Hi all... Just want to share.. Sorry if everyone already knows it..
When you change the dpi to other than 160, the most notable problem are the fc when you made/recieve call..
So, i look into other phone forums and found the solution. One of them are;
HERE
The file (Phone.apk) are attached or you can get from the thread as well.
I've tested and confirm working (dpi 140 as thats the dpi i wish for, not too small as 120). Not tested on other dpi other than that. Appreciate if you all can give feedback either it is working or not if you set dpi to other than what i've tested (140) for my/other members references.
How to apply:
1. Download the Phone.apk (from attachment or from the other thread above)
2. Copy to your sdcard (Skip this if you use adb)
3. copy to /system/app/
4. change permission to rw-r--r--
5. delete Phone.odex (Don't forget this step)
6. Reboot
Now you can apply cm9 HDPI themes and continue using it without the needs to change dpi back to 160!
I don't think I'll need this just now, but just acknowledge your effort :thumbup:

That ROM is already de-odex so there will be no Phone.odex in that folder, i might need to add that portion into the instruction; Skip step 6 if your ROM is deodexed)
You might need to clear dalvik-cache after replacing the file. reboot into cwm, advance, wipe dalvik-cache

Download the zip file extract the files from it.
using software like root explorer copy the files from the folder in which they are saved to system/media/audio/ui replacing the old files and change their permissions to rw-r-r reboot enjoy

Thanks Buddy!! but will it work on MIUI based ROM?
Updated 12/20/2013
I have had some people ask about how to use an aroma based rom with our safe strap recovery. I have attached a zip file to the post that contains the "meta-inf" folder that goes into the archive of your rom. In theory, this should work on any SM-9005 rom or T-Mobile rom.
Prerequisites: Root - Busy Box - Safe Strap Recovery
Choose your Rom Slot and prepare it before starting ( build the system.img and userdata.img ) Instructions are HERE
Wipe system and data from recovery. Data is optional. If you wipe date, you will have to change your APN settings, network mode, time and region settings,etc....
1. Open your "Rom".zip with 7zip. Do not extract, only open!
2. Delete the "meta-inf" folder from the archive.
3. Take any apps in the aroma (maybe called something different i.e. xnote) folder that you want to keep and move them to the system/app folder in the archive.
4. Delete aroma folder from archive when finished.
5 extract the attached zip that contains the new "meta-inf" folder. File is here The extracted zip folder is named the same as the folder within the zip. You need the folder "meta-inf" folder INSIDE the zip, not the extracted folder that was just created. I know this is confusing!
6. Copy this folder to the rom with 7zip.
7. You should now only have 2 folders ( system and meta-inf ) inside the archive. Close archive and copy to phone to flash.
8. Download this file to phone. This is the second file to flash. It fixes all current issues in one package.
9. Flash Rom.zip first and then flash file from step 8. No need to reboot between flashes.
10. Reboot and let rom load.
Everything I have tested now works including NFC, WiFi, BT, All SPen functions including snote, screen write, and action memo. Bluetooth Tethering with Gear is working. Also corrected the music bug and Video chat on hangouts. By not wiping data, proper APNs are saved. If you need to wipe due to problems, you will need to load your APN settings manually.

When you're done you will have only the meta-inf folder from this post and the system folder. The xnote folder is for aroma. You will need to take what you want out of there and move to the system/app folder.

Sorry I probably should have clarified alittke better. Say I wanted to keep all of the aroma features which one do I save out of the folder. I don't actually see a folder titled "aroma".

Try this, when you pull your pen out - it shows the little pie menu for things you can do. The first one is the action memo thing I believe.
Make the note come up and write a number down. Then click on the action button, "the one that selects whatever you wrote" then try to message that to a contact, If your Spen apps are working, you wont get stuck on "Recognizing" forever..Does that work for you?

Installing Xnote 6.0
Here is how i installed Xnote 6.0 using SS by @Hashcode
Make a back up of stock rom before starting. These files will be flashed to the stock rom partition.
I recommend starting from a fresh odin with root and safe strap installed.
Wipe system from recovery but do not wipe data. this will retain your APN settings, etc....
1. Open your Xnote6.0.zip with 7zip. Do not extract, only open!
2. Delete the "meta-inf" folder from the archive.
3. Take any apps in the aroma (maybe called something different ie: xnote) folder that you want to keep and move them to the system/app folder in the archive.
4. delete aroma folder,It is called Xnote.
5 extract the attached zip that contains the new "meta-inf" folder. File is here
6. Copy this folder to the rom with 7zip.
7. Open system/VODB and copy the folder "en_US" from this zip file.
8. Close archive and copy to phone to flash.
9 Download this file to phone. This is the second file to flash.
10. Flash Xnoterom.zip and then flash file from step 9. no need to reboot between flashes.
11. Reboot and let rom load. go to xnote settings and then to update and download the fix for music and games from the dropbox link in the update app.
12. reboot and go to safestrap recovery. Install the downloaded fix file.
Reboot and profit!

Here is how i installed Xnote 6.0 using SS by @Hashcode
Make a back up of stock rom before starting. These files will be flashed to the stock rom partition.
I recommend starting from a fresh odin with root and safe strap installed.

No problem, if something is not working right just let me know and i will troubleshoot it for you. Ive been through it a couple times and seems pretty stable for me. Flashing to the stock rom partition is the way i always did it in the past on every other device, so just back up and flash away as far as i am concerned. :laugh:
Glad to see this is working for you, what about language and settings?? Does screen write with the spen actually save a picture how its supposed to and not FC?

Confirmed, everything works perfect doing this method. I tried earlier with an Updater script from an international stock rom, and that did not go well...
Anyone want to put it all together and have a download link? I won't be home till Saturday and would love to flash x note much sooner lol. Doesn't hurt to ask, right?
Stickied with my post-it-note 3
Does everything work? Ex. Language and input settings?

Here is a .zip where you can flash all your apps in one fell swoop.
This is not my work but something Silesh made for me. I don't think he will mind me sharing it.
I use it all the time and it saves me tons of time not having to install my apps manually.
All you need is WinZip
Just put all your apk files into the data/app folder
and flash away.
What I do is flash the rom and fully boot it first,
then I go back into recovery and flash this .zip.
Boom, all my apps installed. Very nice!
I put just one apk in there. Clean Brower, just so it will work and I can post it here.
Another trick is, using Root Explorer on you phone, just copy your data/app folder from your rom
Then replace that app folder in this .zip and all your apps will be in there.
The advantage to doing this is even when you update or add new apps your apps from the playstore or other, the updated apks will end up in this flashable .zip.
Just make sure when using WinZip when you "add files" and add the app folder you drag it into the data folder. (first delete the app folder that is already in there.)
Again all credit goes to Silesh
Just thought I'd share this.
..
Thanks :good:
Nice to have. Thanks for sharing.
Very good!
Thanks for you. It really works.
Please, can you show, how I can use your zip for another devices? May be for I9000?

It should work on other devices the same.
It flashes all your apps to data/app folder which is used on any Android device.
Obviously not for windows or apple.

Yes thanks.
I have a couple other apps that create flashable zips
But none work as good as the script Silesh has made.
One has an aroma installer but it also has alot of bugs.
Copying my data/app folder into Silesh's .zip works flawless for me.

Aroma Installer
Here is an apk that basically does the same thing.
You can use it to backup and reflash all your apks in recovery at the same time.
This one uses an aroma installer which is nice because you can check or uncheck only the apps you want to install.
It will also do system apps.
Not my work. Had this kicking around from a older phone.
Seems to work fine on the Mega.
Just sharing.
