Calibrating Camera frequency(Hz) - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i was wondering since webcam can be calibrated to 60 Hz or to 50 Hz frquency country (I'm speaking of the electric AC current Hz that some countries differ from each other), so if it is possible for webcams is it possible for the camera implemented in the defy?
the reason it annoys me is because when taking picture or video indoors the florescent light blinks at 50 Hz and the camera is calibrated to 60 Hz causing weird moving lines in the picture.
is there any configuration file i can change so it will happen? or any firmware file i can replace?

How do I do this on the Motorola Moto G?
I'm having the same problem, but I don't see that file. I'm running Android 4.4.4, so possibly the file changed to something else in later versions?

you either need to mod the camera apk or give this app a try

Thanks, but the app force closes when I open it. Would you where in the apk I'll need to edit? Edit: I just realized it might be force closing because it's not rooted yet.

Also, the problem happens with any camera app, while those camera apps are fine on other phones, so wouldn't it be something beyond just editing the app?

Thanks for all the help. The freedcamera in thread you linked works, although how do I change the frequency with it? It seems to have the same frequency as with the other apps. Also I looked through the buildprop and didn't see anything relating to this, but it could be I don't know what I'm looking for.

thats odd there should.be four options off 60hz 50hz and auto

if you only see off, antibanding is not supported by your device or its handeled internal
it will also only work on displays refresh rate. not on neon lights as sample.
if its handeled internal you will see the difference when you focus on the screen.
then the refreshs lines disappears. if not you are out of luck

[Q] How to Remove Camera Sutter Sound?

i wanna know..
i did xml edit and renamed in "system/audio/ui" all camera sound files..
but still making sutter sound..
how to fix it?
sorry for my english..
I am also interested!
Wanam's Xposed has shutter sound removal. Seems to work fine but you still get the focus lock sound when touching to focus. Shutter sound and video record start/stop are gone now though.
Do have any explanation about why EVERY first Samsung rom has this problem?
You need to get rid of the ogg files (shutter.ogg for example) but you must be rooted to perform this task.

It isn't legal in some places to turn off the shutter sound.
Just turn the volume down with the volume rocker. There you go. No sound from the camera. Easy

Goto /system/csc/others.xml or feature.xml. open this file using root browser editor and add below lines between <featureset> lines
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Save file and set permission -rw-r--r--
This will provide shutter sound option in camera app.
Also take backup first.

WOW OK GUYS JUST OPEN UP YOUR camera app and hit your soft key settings then go to the far right tab scroll to the very bottom and you will find the shutter on and off option. No need to root or download any additional apps.
Hope this helps

As this post states the option is not always available. In europe manufacturers are not permitted to include an option to turn off the camera shutter sound.
The app above does work though - nice find.

German Stock Unbranded: No camera shutter on Vibrate and Silent mode. Doesn't have an option for the shutter sound in settings.
One of my main reasons for buying it in Germany

Disable video record start/stop sounds

The camera has a setting to disable the shutter sounds but I don't see one for the video recorder. I made a few searches for what might be the associated audio files so I could rename them, but no luck. Anyone know the filenames?
Edit: Found this in the description of the Camera Sound off! app:
"The LG's camera app has own not removable sound files!"

You need to be rooted and use Root Explorer or equivalent so you can view system files. The file name is VideoRecord.ogg. It's found in system/media/audio/UI.
Backup somewhere in case you want it back and then remove the file.

Your right but it will work for any third party apps that use the video record function. Also if put device on silent it will be muted on stock camera.

MM update. Default apps issue.

Hi guys
Just installed the MM update for my Note 4. Didn't notice any difference at first, then discovered that Allcast no longer streams to my Xbox DLNA, and also now in the gallery whenever you click on a video it gives you the choice of apps to open it with ONCE then automatically sets that as the default, so if I want to open a video in a different player I now have to go into app manager and clear the defaults. Then I can open with the app I want. But that gets set as default too so it never ends.
This is really REALLY annoying.
Please does anyone know of a fix around this?
Many thanks.

Indeed a very annoying update all around!
No fix, but an app called 'Better open with'.

+1 for this, been using it for years: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.betteropenwith
Basically you set it as the default app for opening a particular file type or link, and then within this app you can choose which other apps are allowed to open said files or links. You can also have a countdown to open with a default choice, giving you a few seconds to choose an alternative.
Been meaning to ask this since I upgraded to MM, always thought that this was a stupid MM feature, but now I see this is a bug right?
Thanks to that app anyway, don't like unnecessary apps, but still better than annoyance caused by waste of time.
It's not a bug, it's a further stupidity from Samsung. You can find this so called feature nobody wants on other devices as well (Note 5 and S7).
Thanks guys. Will try that app out.
This is without doubt the worst software update yet, so much to complain about!

I believe that opens a google photo gallery, which I am not a fan of sharing photos with.
If you try texting a photo, it sends a link to the photo as an album uploaded somewhere
Ah ok.
I do want to find a new Gallery app though. This one has minimal editing abilities. On my Note 7 I was able to edit more extensively and I could edit videos within the app too.
I side loaded an lg gallery app. The ones in the play store didn't do it for it me.
Here you guys go. =)

Tried sideloading through adb with a no go, and installing like a normal app is no go for me as well. Thank you for your efforts though.
On adb I get install failed invalid apk package couldn't be installed related missing code.
Maybe once the t-mobile guys break in they could give us the apk.
