There seems to have been many threads discussing how to disable the shutter sound on the camera. For those who don't want to root or just want a very easy way to automate this, they should dive into the warm and welcoming waters of Tasker, which is a great app for those too lazy to hack for themselves.
I found the instructions below here:
Open Tasker
Make sure the Profiles tab is selected.
Click on the green plus sign to create a new task.
Give it a name such as "Camera Silence."
Press the green check mark.
Select "Application" when the first ontext windows pops up.
Highlight the "Camera" app.
Press the green check mark.
Select "New Task" (name here is optional)
Press the green check mark.
Press the blue plus sign.
Select "Audio."
Select "Silent Mode"
Under mode select the drop down box and select "on"
Press the green check mark.
Press the green check mark.
Press the green check mark.
All done!
Well done to Paladin.
And how do you do it if you have root

So I successfully rooted my Nook Color now, and installed the Market. However, very few apps appear in it, and I was wondering if there was a way to unlock the entire Android Market.
I'm running 1.2.
Thank you.
Have you done the old standby to stop/restart Framework/Google, etc. and reload?
In case you don't know what I mean:
Start Nook Color Tools.
Select the “All Settings” button.
Unplug your NOOKcolor from computer. (If Plugged in.)
Choose “Manage Applications” from the list.
Select the “All” tab.
Scroll down to “Market” and select it.
Tap “Force stop”.
Tap “Clear cache”.
Tap the Back button if you have SoftKeys running, else swipe right to left on the status bar at the bottom of the screen (from the clock to the book icon).
Scroll up to “Google Services Framework” and select it.
Tap “Clear data”.
Tap “OK”.
Tap “Force stop”.
Press the n button to return to your launcher.
Start Market.
At the “An error has occurred” message, tap “OK”.
Hold your power button to turn off your NOOK Color from the menu.
Turn your NOOK Color back on and give it a moment to find your WiFi connection.
Start Market again, and the problem is resolved.
I tried that but it didnt work. Can anyone help?
What do you mean by "unlock"?
You said "very few apps in it", what exactly do you mean?
Only few apps displayed on the NC?
Did you log in (set up) your google account?
Did you search apps by tap on the little magnifier in the upper right corner?
did you try turning the nook sideways?
It's kinda sad the OP hasn't replied in 5 days.
Yea, if you follow the instructions skeeterpro said EXACTLY, it should work perfect. I had some random issues so I had to return to stock a few times and re-root and go thru the process, and every time it fixed it. So many the OP needs to make sure he did EVERY single step, exactly, without deviation.
Accidentally cleared data instead of cache, sorry guys, thanks.
When the Samsung Galaxy S6 came out I really liked this feature of quickly launching the Camera app by just double tapping on the physical Home button. Well for those people looking for something similar(like myself) this is a pretty good and easy way to make it happen, the Camera wont launch as fast as the GS6 but something still better than nothing, I will leave some Step by Step procedure with some pictures for references,so lets get started,
NO ROOT REQUIRED
Download Home2 Shortcut from Google Play for free. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut
1-Open up Home2 Shortcut and scroll down 'till you reach your first stop - "Step1". Here, you'll assign the Home key to the Camera app. So tap "Choose Application", choose "Camera" and hit "Ok".
2-Next, you'll adjust the duration, or how quickly you must tap the home button to complete the action. So scroll down to "Step 2", tap the "Normal" drop-down menu, and choose "Normal"
3-Scroll down to "Step 3", where you'll complete an important setting. Tap "Choose Home Application" and select the launcher you're currently using.
4-Scroll down to the final "Step 4" and tap Close. Android will prompt you to select an app to complete the action. In this screen, select "Home2 Shortcut", and then choose "Always".
5-Go ahead and try launching the Camera by double tapping the Home button. It should work.
THIS METHOD DOES NOT WORK WITH THE SCREEN OFF
Tired of LTE/data disconnecting on VS980 or other G2 CAF builds when disconnecting from wifi or when the phone reboots or other??
I may have a fix for you..
Install Tasker
Install Secure Settings and install the system+ option. Open tasker and create new task
- Name task LTEtoggle
step 1 : Click + then type wait in the seach bar and select wait then select 1 second hit back
step 2 - Click + and select plugin then select secure settings
- Select Custom Rom Action and select LTE
- Select toggle and hit save icon in the upper right
-make sure to select continue task after error and hit the back button
REPEAT STEP ONE
REPEAT STEP 2 - WITH THE EXCEPTION - Instead of selecting toggle, select ON and hit save.
-hit back
- Select Profiles and click the + at the bottom and select state.
- type wifi and select wifi connected then hit back button
-Menu will pop up, select LTEtoggle you just made.
Long press the LTEtoggle icon with the little green arrow then select EXIT task
-Select LTEtoggle again.
-Long press on the TOP GREEN LTEToggle and select unlink task.
-Make sure the switch is on, exit in the upper right and save when prompted.
Open tasker again and make sure its enabled in the upper left and corner by long pressing the wheel.
- You will get an error from toast saying LTEtoggle failed but ignore it or disable.
There is your LTE toggle when disconnecting from wifi. Works pretty well so far...
You can create another profile and select DEVICE boot and add the LTE toggle to it. And you will have an LTE auto switch for when your phone reboots or other..
I have been looking for an auto-answer solution for the Pixel XL and have not been able to find anything that worked. I was playing around with Tasker and found a simple method that works. This will probably work on other devices, but I have not tested beyond the Pixel XL.
Prerequisites:
Phone must be rooted. Directions can be found here.
Tasker app installed. You can download it from the Play store here.
Once you are rooted and have Tasker installed, you need to create a profile. From the profiles tab in Tasker, press the "+" button, then >State >Phone >Call. make sure the Type is "Incoming" and leave everything else alone.
Hit the back arrow in Tasker. Tasker will prompt you for a new task. Press the "+" button next to "New Task." Leave the optional line blank and press the check mark.
From the Task Edit page, press the "+" button. Select Input >Button. In the Action Edit page, change the drop down under Button to "Call."
Press the Tasker back arrow twice to bring you to the Profiles tab. Enable the profile with the toggle next to "Call Incoming."
Press the check mark at the top of Tasker to apply the changes.
Make sure to enable tasker by pressing the 3-dot menu option and select "Enable Tasker."
If everything is working properly, the phone will answer any incoming phone calls.
