Camera shutter sound

Can someone tell me how to disable the camera shutter sound.

I tried renaming the camera_click.ogg file in system/media/audio/ui , but it doesn't disable the shutter sound.

The silentsnap app from the market doesn't work either. It's really annoying.

Use RootExplorer to edit /data/local/tmp/3rd_party/Arcsoft/Camera/camera.conf (long press on the file and chose Open in Text Editor)

If you don't see that .conf file, just run camera and it will be created.

Change shutter_sound=1 to shutter_sound=0. Then Save & Exit.

Or, download SilentCam. :)

I would probably go with the above method, though. Takes less memory, and is easier to do. Gonna do it myself, so I can take photos of my Gal during the night, but silently so she doesn't hear me...

Wait, do I sound like a pervert?

Delete or move all the *.wav files in /system/3rd_party/ArcSoft/Camera/

You don't have to edit camera.conf if you use this method.

Nevermind, it doesn't work.

Putting your phone into Vibration or Silent mode will make the AF sound gone. :)

(Open notification then press sound icon)

Great fix, I'll just add a little detail.

Before modifying camera.conf make sure you've set the Mount R/W option in Root Explorer otherwise it won't save the edit properly.

The option is available at the top of the main screen of Root Explorer.

Brilliant! Managed to root my phone today using Super One click (Android 2.1, Baltic ROM, Windows 7). Finally able to remove that dreadful shutter sound!

Many thanks all!

:P :D :D

hi guys, i would like to get rid of this annoying sound too, but when i open the conf-file, there´s no way to edit it.

root explorer runs in r/w-mode.

GT540, 2.1 -update1 "french", 1clickapp2sd and root
