Anyone know how to turn them off? Focus and shutter sounds are really annoying!

[Adyx00]

I think there might be an option in build.prop to disable it. You might be better off waiting for someone who knows what they're talking about though. I think Paul's rom had an option in the kitchen too actually.

two options

stock ics camera sounds

remove camera sounds

Nice Tillaz but there is still a sound relating to the camera focus which is held in the APK itself.  Maybe the apk needs edited and recompiled I dunno.

I think its illegal to remove the camera shutter noise in some countries. I still don't know why, but I know I've seen it somewhere...

Anti-pervert measure.

Yeah I think it's in ics camera if you try disable sounds.

Thanks tillaz! Will try now. Also will you be adding init.d support for atomic mod ics version.? :-D

yeah, here is a boot.img for the ics update with init.d support

i will have a look at the camera to disable the remaining sound, should be fairly easy

i managed to decompile the apk, replace the ogg files with empty versions but kept getting errors when trying to compile again so gave up ^^

Dead easy. Just been looking through build prop.

Ro.camera.forced.sound=1

Change the 1 to 0, save and reboot. Tried and tested. If you dont reboot, sounds are still active.

Don´t know why but it doesn´t works for me.. and yes, i´ve rebooted

[Davidoff59]

You sure it saved peacemaker? I use Rom Toolbox so I dont have to mount file systems to RW a its done automatically. I will try again on a fresh install and confirm

[Davidoff59]

Just noticed build prop ro.config.hw.camera_hdr which is set to false. I will see what true does.
Setting to true doesnt appear to do anything.

Confirmed no sound and no focusing noise

ok cool i'll try the build.prop thing then. hmm, 'hdr' could that mean high definition recording? just a guess

[Davidoff59]

Thats what I thought

Yes, I used Toolbox but the sound is still there...


earlier today I have noticed too in the camera hdr, but no result... there is also a line for a SrS equalizer..

Just a thought but are you rebooting with 'Fast Boot' enabled in settings?   Try again with fast boot set to off

isn't HDR that feature in a camera that takes loads of pictures then merges them to make a better picture or something?

sure i had it on my iphone 4
