Shutter sound - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got my S5 this morning. I take lots of pictures of my baby. The shutter sound is bothering him. Is there any way to turn it off? On my S4 with omega rom I can easily turn it off, but on my new S5 I can't find the way to do it.
Any idea? Thanks.

The only way I can see is to hold the power button down and mute the phone. Don't forget to un-mute it after.

So simple, so fast ...
I used Xposed & wanam module ( rooted S5 )

That apk worked like a charm even with no root. For some reason I didn't get to root my S5 yet. Will do it as soon. Thanks.

Will have to try it if it's working without root

[Q] quick toggles disappeared

Got my shiny s4 the other day, all working well.
Now I did get an ota yesterday, don't know if this has anything to do with my issue.
The first day I could pull down the notifications area with two fingers to get all the quick settings.
Then there was all twenty or so toggles.
Now it's just the 7 basic ones.
And I can't add more from the settings, unless there is some hidden menus...
Any help appreciated!

I also have this issue. I had loads of toggles when first got phone then all of a sudden I only have 7. No toggle for air view, ect
Okay, good to know I'm not they only one...
But what to do?
Going for root and a custom Rom as soon as there is somethin stable out there.

Wild guess, have you turned on Talkback under Accessibility?
Nope, no talkback...

Mine all disappeared once, and I had no toggles at all.
A factory reset brought them back up again.
Did you root and backup?

Try this, you need a custom kernel and root for this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.paranoid.touchcontrolfree

Currently incompatible with 4.3, however
I don't like the idea of the phone being in the pocket, and turning itself on because of pressure touches in the screen...
Also keeping the phone always 'listening' for touches will fore sure take a toll on the battery.
try this app "Gravity Screen - On / Off" , no root required

New message wake

I may be missing it, but does anybody see an option that won't wake the screen when a new message comes in?

coming from a note 2 i needed a custom rom / mod in order to disable that feature lol
Yeah you need to have a custom room or xposed mod to get the setting back.

Dang, seriously? I guess I'm so used to rooted phones that I didn't realize that wasn't just a general setting. We need root bad.

For SMS/MMS, I installed Textra and turned off the native messaging app. Textra allows you to not wake up the screen in settings. Not exactly a fix, but I'm liking the app so far.

Hardware keys to activate shutter?

Now that root is achieved and the device is water resistant, has anyone found a method to make one of the hardware keys activate the shutter since the screen can't recognize anything when submerged?

When I push volume up in the stock camera app it fires the shutter. It did work underwater too when I was on vacation before root was achieved so I know it wasn't a mod that I did.

Idk why I didn't even try that... Wow thank you Sir! I guess I assumed it would be the zoom since I was used to that on the Note 3 and S4.
Now to tell my customers.

You're welcome! Glad I could help. I'm surprised there is no toggle, I guess they felt no one used the zoom function.

Reading mod

Apperantly reading mode only works on play books…
I applied it to xda, instagram and even the stock browser… but it is still not working!
Is there an xposed model or something to optimize it for all apps?? ?

Silly question, did you actually turn it on? Because I've had people miss that toggle. Just asking. Since it should work with stock browser.
As for Xposed, not to my knowledge.
But as far as I know, all reading mode does is change the screen hue to a less white colour. You can use LUX for that, too.
