Is it possible to turn off the sound in camera so it is silent when taking pictures? (I not want to mute the phone)
Just use Tasker to mute your device when the camera is active

The option is not on every Note 4 device. My SM-N910C doesn't have that. Apparently from what I've heard Koreans are obliged by law to have the sound whenever they use a camera.
I've also heard rooted Note 4 can get rid of this, but you'll have to ask someone else on how exactly it's done.
If rooted you can modify the csc settings to make the camera shutter menu appear. It's present in all Samsung roms, just not enabled on some of them.
The most convenient way to modify the csc features is to use an app called note 2 hidden features. Works on all Samsung devices, don't let the name fool you.
Check out "Note 2 Hidden Settings"

You need a rooted Note 4, right.
Easiest method is just erasing or renaming the shutter sound file; usually called something like "Shutter.ogg".
With the Note 4, I suspect it's \system\media\audio\ui\Shutter.ogg
But beware: With other Samsung models (like the S4), this just deactivated the regular, single shot shutter sound. The sound for that "sequence shots" (if you keep the shutter button pressed) was still there.
So you buy a flagship phone..... and then you need to root it for turn off the shutter sound... ? Well I am glad that I not use the camera that much....
enforced stream silencer will do it

NO, in many countries it's PROHIBITED by law to turn off the shutter sound (probably in yours too!)!

NO it's not prohibited here - and both my Z2 phone and tablet are capable turning off the shutter sound.... So I can only hope for an update ?

why are you hoping for an update ? enforced stream silencer does it without root.
And where do I get enforced stream silencer? After all it would have been more easy if Samsung just make it possible to silence the shutter sound in their flagship device ?

I'm having to use an app for call recording atm as I can't find anything to do with it on my phone.
Could anyone shed a bit of light on it?
I've tried some different call recording programs, and so far this is the one that has provided me with the best results
Haven't tried it on my Note 3, but it worked great on my galaxy S3

Good one with mp3 recording format. And also free.

Yes it is having in app purchase for automatic call recording but try out lite version first and decide.
I have purchased and it worth to spend. Even you can use this app in multidevice with one purchase.
And manual recording is not big deal, it gives icon in call screen and very flexible.

Its lacking tru call handling and notifications support at the moment. Doesnt quite 'integrate' with my note 2 just yet (running 4.3)... But i can seemlessly send pictures, apps, video via Bluetooth consistently without any issues. Wifi works 110% perfect.

Can you tether it to a phone so you can use the phone's internet connection? This is something most smartwatches seem to be lacking, even though it should be included if the manufacturer doesn't mess with the software (i.e. removing that option intentionally)

I meant that it is lacking phone pair connectivity. Such as ; if you get a text the phone cannot notify you, or if you have a call coming in the watch will not notify you... this software doesn't exist yet. I have tried numerous apps on play store but no luck as of yet.

It's a 2 mega pixel camera... the quality isn't too bad overall... video quality is actually Very Good... i sent a video from the watch to my galaxy note 2 and the resolution was very surprising..... it was good. not too much distortion - The only thing is that the frame rate is less so you will noticing a little skipping vs a high quality galaxy note or s4 camera would take.. this is expected though.

I have the same issues yes.. I think this is a big manufacturer bug when you are connected on WIFI.. not cool samsung, hope you can fix it with a software update but I think its hardware related..
I read this too late. I took the device back today and I'm now on my second note. I have literally just got in the door and connected to my wifi. Haven't tested it on wifi yet but there was no lines in town in dimmed light.
Another reason I took it back was because I kept having unresponsive power and home key buttons.
This was temperamental but still an issue.

Solution
I added a simple tasker rule to disable wifi and mobile data while the camera app is running. I also mutes the dial tone volume to get rid of shutter sounds...
This phone needs some patching until rooting becomes possible without loosing warranty.
I am so pissed at Samsung. Their hardware team created perfection only to be ruined by the monkeys who make their software

I couldn't agree with you more.. Very disappointing that I spend a lot of money on a device i believe to be probably the best on the market for it to be ruined by something as simple as taking pictures.
But. . Touch wood.. This one hasn't produced the same lines... It did however lock up one on the day i got it requiring battery pull.
@JAMIE1000UK what's your new phone's software version? Mine's still MJ1 and I'm guarding it like gold, because with this I still have some chance of rooting, when I gather up the courage...
I'm running mj7 too. I'm pretty much the same. . Holding back on root.
Having said that. When I took out the phone I got phones4u care with it.
Meaning I get a direct replacement no quarrels within 21 days of purchase so shouldn't be a problem.

have you unlocked bootloader? if yes do you have ta folder backed up???
If your notifications seem quiet, use the volume button, in volume settings it can be on max and sound quiet, but if you use volume on home screen it will increase. I think it's tied to media volume for some reason. Heard peoe say about camera viewer lag and tried 4k video, got 9:30 recorded and phone was barely warm. Couldn't record longer as ran out of storage. I think they have done something to the viewfinder that stops the phone overheating. Before I couldn't get more than 7 minutes.

Wow, I'm on Verizon and even my S7E allows creep mode...I mean, turning off the shutter sound. Odd that Sprint variant does that.
AT&T version also allows the shutter sound to be turned off.
just put the phone on vibrate and the shutter will not sound....it's just another step to take, but it works..
I just realized that with the update Sprint pushed out in the last 2 weeks, it turned the shutter sound on. When I had gotten the s7e it didn't make a sound. Looking at the options in the phone and the interwebs, there is no way to turn it off except for turning the 'system' volume down all the way. Which is OK since MEdia/notifications/ringer can stay all the way up. Not sure what I might miss out on, but that's what the status-notify is for.
I really miss root. So many little nuances that I never realized I needed...been spoiled since the Original Epic I guess.

I don't think so. In my international S7 edge the option 'Shutter sound' does not exist.
This is something Sprint has done for years now. Without rooting, the only way to shut it off is to turn system volume down.
Hard to believe that Verizon didn't neuter this also.
In many countries all over the world it's I permitted by law to disable camera shutter sounds, to prevent people being severity shot by pervs ?
But most of the time muting all sounds should do the trick. Happy perving?

That's strange that on my 935K phone (Korean version) I bring all the sounds down, but camera shutter clicks loud anyway So I am looking for another solution. Silent Cam didn't work as well..
just go to sound, on "system sound" bring slider all the way left (silence), so the shutter will not sound will phone ringtone and others still sound as intended. you are welcome
