So I just got the Venue Pro and have loved it so far. The NoDo update went without a hitch and everything on this phone is great so far. The only thing bugging me is the shutter sound on the camera. Has anyone been able to remove that or turn it off? I'm sure that I can make a patch for it when I get home and have sometime, I was just hoping to get it done sooner than that.
Yeah, I find it a bit annoying also...
There is a setting in the registry, I do not remember it offhand, that allows you to change the path/remove the path to the shutter sound.
However, since we can not write to the registry there is nothing we can do for now.

hi, there.. it is normally to have an option to turned the shutter sounds off in Daimond, but my Daimond there are no options available in advanced setting to turn off the sound, this is possible that my is the original Telstra's ROM ?
after i do a research in this website it seems to me that i couldn't find the solution to myself.. therefore it would be greatful for you guys to suggest me a solution to improve my little computerize skill, ThX
PS. I'm new so i do apologize if i interrupting you with a silly question ,
put the phone one silent or vibrate and it won't make anymore that camera sound
Shutter sound...
Have you checked all the settings in advanced? This may seem a silly question, but there are 5 pages of settings in the stock ROM's. On my device...
Advanced Settings, Page 2/5, 3rd option from the top. I've never had a phone yet (with a camera), where the shutter sound can't be turned off. May be your device is unique in that respect! If so, follow darko07's advice above
it is still a sound occur to me, although the device has turned off all sounds..
and more joke to me there are just only 4 pages in Advanced Settings.. that's why i couldn't find that action..
do you think it is about the Tweak things that might be deleted that ?
bumping the issue..
I have the same problem - cannot turn off the sound of the shutter. have tried looking at advanced settings, having the phone on silent, etc etc... still not solution.
any ideas out there? thanks
Actually I'm pretty sure canadian law doesnt allow phone's camera shutter to be turned off because of a few perverts. I heard of the law passing about a year ago, you might want to ask telstra about this.
Aye, we're thinking of a law over here in the UK but it's certainly been around for a while in some places.

I have a Canadian Diamond and mine has the option to turn off the shutter sound.
In the Advanced Settings on the 2nd page it has Shutter Sound On/Off
have a look here guys, few posts down http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=500777&page=2
Does anyone know if there's a way to disable the camera shutter sound? I was unable to find it in the camera app settings (thank god, since that means it wouldn't save anyway...), and I didn't see it by going through Settings>Camera. Anyone have any luck trying to turn this sound off?
I don't think it's possible right now and may never be officially since there are laws in many countries that mandate audible clicks while taking pictures. Once hacked, there may be a possibility.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who's looking for a solution. It's very loud and disruptive when I'm trying to catch my dogs playing or sneak a pic of my wife doing something silly. I really hope somebody finds a solution for this soon.
Hello, i just bought my focus yesterday and just found out if you lower the volume all the way to zero it doesnt have a shutter sound. Hope that helps, its not a good solution but something.

Thanks for your reports.

OK so i was intrigued that people got to do it but i couldn't........so i restarted the phone and I was able to do it dont know why sometimes it makes the sound and why some times it dosent.........microsoft has problems with sound for a wile....so maybe they will fix this soon.....I will keep testing to see what program makes it go erratic
this worked for me
Hey everybody, I've been trying to get around the issue for a while myself and found this: karnicki.eu/?p=10 for the omnia7. It did the trick for me and whenever I set the phone to silent the shutter stays in STFU mode! I fiddled with the sound settings before but it might be something magical about the 1000/-1000 combo. Please test and confirm.
Pause song, turn volume all the way down
Simple "Fix" is to start a song in zune, then to pause said song and to also turn down the volume to zero (0). This keeps the shutter from playing but only as long as you have a paused song in zune.
once there is a file manager hack for the phone, you should be able to just delete the sound file for that one specific sound. Thats what i did on my iphone along w/ the stupid SMS sent sound.
Put the volume all the way down to Zero, turn it off, turn it on, then it should be gone. It worked for me
Hello all,
I have bought Samsung Galaxy S2 recently. It's a great phone. But I am having some doubts. Hope u can solve them.
1). Whenever I open camera application, every time I have to set Outdoor visibility n Auto Contrast option to On. Is there any way to keep these setting at what I set rather than every time I have to change setting?
2). When I on bluetooth, I have to go to bluetooth setting to eneble bluetooth visibility to other device, to enable my device to be searched by other device.
Isn't there any way that when I open bluetooth, by default visibility also set to on.
3). Is there any code for Audio gain just like Samsung Omnia 2 winmo.
As I am coming from WinMo (Samsung Omnia 2) n this is my first Android, so asking these silly doubts. I havent faced such problems in my Omnia 2.
Thanks in Advance.
1 & 2- That's the way it is I think.
3- You could try Volume + app posted in this forum. It will do you well in Multimedia volumes. To increase In call volume, you could try *#197328640#, but it will get reset after every restart.
Regards.
Regarding the codes for volume gain, you can try the guide of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741012. It's for the SGS1 but also works for the SGS2. Nevertheless, although it worked for me effectively solving the low volume problem I was experiencing in phone calls using the headset, many users have reported that this doesn't work for them. Equally, there is other codes, which can be found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069015 and which you may try, but again, many users have reported that they work only until you reboot your device.
Regarding the bluetooth, you certainly will have a huge battery drain if you leave it turned on all the time, so I don't think that it would be a good idea doing this. Although it is possible to keep it on all the time, it seems that it's not possible to make it visible for more than 120 seconds.
I'm not sure the camera settings, sorry but I can't help you with this right now. The only thing that I can say is that it seems that my camera app keep some of the last used settings, such as the focus mode, but other settings such as white balance, it go back to default always that you close it.
I hope that at least you solve the volume issue as I did, because many people didn't.
Thanks to both of u for reply. Will try ur suggestions n post back the results.
Okay, I did a little searching on XDA, and found that the only way to remove the shutter noise and video record beep was to unlock and use an explorer to delete the .wav files... Is there an alternative to doing so? I am currently on NoDo, and I'd prefer to stay on it if possible.
On a side note, is this fixed for the Mango update? There are a few issues I'm looking forward to them fixing. I hope this is one of them. I heard it's supposed be a manufacturer's decision to add the beep, but Mango should still offer that option.

Touch volume up/down, than the "ring" icon on the upper right half. It will turn to "vibrate". For pictures/videos I had no sound in NoDo and don't have in Mango using this. "Restore" back after photos

I heard of that method, too. But when I change my ringer to vibrate or turn my sound down all the way, the shutter still comes up.
In any release prior to Mango, the only guaranteed way to defeat the shutter sound (without hacking) is to start playing a song in the Zune player, pause it, and then turn the volume all the way down on the phone. Anything else seems to have mixed results, but that method always works.
In Mango (not sure about the beta) there will be an option to turn off the sound.

That actually worked, thanks. I tried it with loading a video instead, and it also worked. Unnecessarily tedious, but at least now I know I can turn off the shutter sound temporarily.
I'm surprised there isn't a camera app yet with this feature.
I just updated to Mango with a dev account about an hour ago. There's a dedicated on/off check box in ringers and sounds now.

Definitely easier with an on/off for sound, but I prefer a dedicated shutter/record sound function.

Yeah. That's what I meant. Or at least what I think you mean.
You want the shutter sound to be off, right? The Mango has an option just for that. Leaves other sounds on, shuts the shutter sound off.

Yeah, it is what I meant. And I'm glad. Thanks.
I hope it starts having smarter data usage, like Android and iOS. Kind of annoying going to settings all the time to turn on data/wifi.
Anyone know how to disable that annoying beeping sound when you change volume or when you hit max volume? it is unbelievably annoying.
Gravity Box in Xposed can disabled it. Along with loads of other stuff. That requires root and will break Android Pay, though.
Ok this probably isn't much help but I noticed the other day that my Nexus 6p has stopped making that sound when changing the volume setting. Except I have no idea how or why.. in fact I've been actually trying to bring it back just to understand why its stopped. I'm also non-root switch is even more strange

Stock doesn't do it anymore. Only custom roms do.
Which is all the more strange then as I'm running stock non-rooted. Unless I deleted a sound file or something by accident. Is that even possible to stop the sound? I still have the lock sound, just no volume sounds when changing volume
