[Q] How to turn off Camera shutter sound? - Milestone XT720 General

Has anyone found a Camera app that is compatible with XT720 ?
or know of a way to disabling the stock Camera shutter sound ?
many of the apps that works fine (on/off sound) on my other phones it doesn't seem to work on the XT720
it seems to completely ignore if you have the shutter sound off, even on camera apps that provide that option.

I just plugged-in my earphone, so the sound is redirected to the earphone instead of the camera speaker. ... that's the fastest way to do.

go to /system/media/audio/ui/ and look for cameraXXXX.ogg and either rename it or cut and paste it somewhere else. no more click

holly ****! "silent mode" does not work...

go to adb shell...
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
mv /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg.old
mv /system/media/audio/ui/VideoRecord.ogg /system/media/audio/ui/VideoRecord.ogg.old
exit
done...so eazy ...huh!
ps/ no need the the rubbish app...xt720 cannot be mute by app or silent button..

excellent ideas

Good idea but the files are write protected. Can't rename, delete or move. Anything can be done about this?

You can try using root explorer to delete/rename the files. Or install terminal emulator to type the commands written by khalpowers:
su
...
exit

Master solution. Refer to youtube: "adb shell" if you're a noob.

Just use root explorer to rename the extension from .ogg to .bak. then the sound will be gone.

u can do what khalpowers suggested in terminal emulator app after typing "su" for superuser permisions. no adb for me.

shutter sound is easy to remove, but has anyone found a way to remove the focus noise? (its a beep-beep noise)

Just flash one of the custom ROM.

Long way to go when all you have to do is change your camera sound from .oog to .bak in /system/media/audio/ui/
Plus if you remove it and then decide to sell your phone or have to turn it back in, you have to find that file again. This way all you have to do to turn it back on is change it back from .bak to .oog and viola, it is back.
Far far easier just to do that. Don't need adb, don't need to flash another rom. Just make sure in Root Explorer you are RW and not RO.

That's what I just said... and its .ogg not .oog. and lol installing a custom ROM might not necessarily remove the shutter sound.

And then the link inside is to android.git.kernel.org and I think that may still be down.
Easy Answer:
Turn your sound to silent.

Thanks for it.
Sometimes things can be that easy....

the CM6 has a build in feature to disable that

ive tried.. which settings more specifically?
iam pretty much a noob but I believe the lock screen for CM6 is quite different. The haptic settings on the phone dont change the lockscreen. I tried removing the Unlock.ogg file once to improve unlock speed and I think that stopped the feedback. Since then I haven't been able to remove that file but you can give it a try.
Use Terminal Emulator and type the following
su
rm /system/media/audio/ui/Unlock.ogg
*its case sensitive for the Unlock.ogg

You can remove that file using Root Explorer if you feel like paying for it. Very worth it IMHO.
Doesn't remove vibration for me. Removed it via adb

Uhh, .ogg is a sound file, how would that have anything to do with haptic feedback? That sound is what you get when you unlock your phone. (Obviously).

The system/ media/ audio folder holds your sounds. You can go in and replace the sounds with the sounds you want but keep the name the same.
You can use audacity to make Ogg files.

you'll need to use a root shell in adb or make a flashable.zip or root explorer.

[MOD] Six(6) Lockscreens & Power Menu + Clock Options for KC1 [EDT][4.22.2011]

Ok everyone. Here is the lockscreen mod, power menu AND additional clock options for KC1. This will NOT work on Krylon's stock build but ONLY my deodexed one. Since there is no cwm yet you will need to push the files manually with adb or use root explorer to drop them in. Root Explorer is the easiest method. Just be sure to set permissions on all the files to rw-r--r-- after you copy them in.
Lockscreens are Rotary (default), Puzzle, Android, Glass, Epic and Star Wars (Settings > Display > Unlock Screen)(Please be aware - Lockscreen wallpapers are not supported on any of these)
Power Menu (no header) - Reboot, Recovery, Download mode
Clock Options - Hide Clock, Hide am/pm (Settings > Date and Time)
Added "Stay Awake" option (Settings > Applications > Development)
Pretty sure I killed the "battery full" pop-up as well
DOWNLOAD <<<<< KC1 Lockscreens / Power Menu / Clock Options
If using adb here is what to do...
Place the files in the zip in your adb tools folder. Navigate to your tools folder in your cmd prompt and perform these commands
First, mount your system as r/w
Code:
adb shell
su (will need to accept root access on phone)
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
Your system is now mounted as read/write. Now remove the original files from your phone.
Code:
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm /system/framework/framework.jar
rm /system/framework/android.policy.jar
rm /system/framework/services.jar
rm /system/app/Settings.apk
exit
exit
Now push the new files into place.
framework files to framework folder
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
adb push framework.jar /system/framework
adb push android.policy.jar /system/framework
adb push services.jar /system/framework
Settings to app folder
Code:
adb push Settings.apk /system/app
Now the files are all in place, but you need to set the correct permission on them.
Code:
adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework.jar
chmod 644 /system/framework/android.policy.jar
chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
chmod 644 /system/app/Settings.apk
DONE. Now reboot your phone. It will take about 5 minutes to reboot.
Again, you can use Root Explorer to move these files into place manually. Just be sure to set the permissions of all of them to rw-r--r-- after you do.

I would honestly learn the basics before you try any of this.
i allready flashed stock deodexed kc1 rom onto my phone in hopes of putting on the lockscreens but i just wanted to know if the root explorer method was easier like he stated up there
I really want these....but its quite painful setting up all my sync'ed accounts again after flashing. I went from Deodexed to Krylon's Odexed Stock, to go back to Deodexed would be a painful process again to get all my accounts set back up and app's loaded + moved to SD. Also fixing the camera/mms/phone issue with the Deodexed ROM on top of that.
Anybody else have any thoughts? Just do it? Haha

I used ES File Explorer, go into settings, and check the two boxes in Root setting.
Then go to the directory where the zip is saved, extract and copy paste to the right directories. Once that was done I rebooted. It took 5 min or so to boot but It came up. Once done go into settings and change lockscreen.
Worked like a charm for me. Thanks!!!

so to be clear...
i have to flash the deodexed rom in order to have this?
i cant push them with root explorer with only a rooted 4gs?

Oh boy, so I was able to do this via ADB.
But thought I would also try and do it with Root Explorer. I am bored at my job today.
I copied the files to the sdcard. Then opened Root explorer, located the files, using multi- select I selected all but the settings file that goes into the system/app.
I then hit copy/ then tried to paste the four files to system/framework
I get an error that says there isn't enough space. Then I get all sorts of force closes, and have to re-odin the deodexed KC1.
What the hell am I doing wrong? I am sure I am just having a brain fart but its becoming irritating.

I had the same problem with another framework, and cringed when I tried this method. BUT, I used ES File explorer for this mod and everything worked like a charm. I didnt have to set permissions or anything.

Completely off-topic but how do you like the micro cell? I was thinking about getting one.
i like it. works like it is supposed to. i live in the one spot of the city that gets no coverage at all and it gives me signal. they only down side is that if you are streaming a video or downloading files it will get very choppy (which is understandable). but other than that it is awesome.

If this sounds like a noob...well it actually is...but what is a micro cell and is it for the A2..?
Basically it is a mini cell tower in your home that uses your internet. So if like me you get no reception at home it will give you full reception.

How did you replace them? Root Explorer or ADB? Because if you did it with root Explorer, it would have automatically rebooted when you replaced the Framework.apk, and then continue to bootloop after that. If you did use root explorer, the issue is a result of incorrect permissions being set on the framework apk.
Assuming your phone is rooted, you can chance the permissions to the framework.apk, or push the original back to the phone. I dont know the exact commands to put into the terminal, but hopefully someone here could type those out and list them?
Hope it helps, and good luck!, because what just happened was, your phone was soft-bricked, and until an sbf is released that you could flash, this would be the only plausible way to fix it.
DO NOT DO A FACTORY RESET/DATA WIPE THROUGH THE STOCK RECOVERY!
It will get rid of your root permissions, and then there's no hope until an sbf is released .

Your going to have to use adb for this!
1. download the system dump over at the development section for atrix 2
2. you will need 2 file from the dump framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
3. put those 2 files on the root of ur sdcard
4. load adb and at the prompt type this
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cat /sdcard/SystemUI.apk > /system/app/SystemUI.apk
chmod 755 /system/app/SystemUI.apk
now type this for framework
cat /sdcard/framework-res.apk > /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 755 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Next type
reboot
That should fix it ......
let me know how it works for ya

[How-to][Root] Remove Camera Sound Using Terminal

First off you will need to be rooted. Yes the link says RAZR M but it works just fine with the Photon Q. Tests on my phone show that this will not work with the software version 77.8.10.XT897.Sprint.en.US (11/6) release. I have heard of another person being able to use this exploit, though it shouldn't hurt to try this method anyway.
Second thing you will need is a terminal emulator.
This how-to only renames the audio file used for the camera when you take a picture. That means that all you have to do to get the sound back is to replace the code from the last step with the code at the end of this post.
1. Start the terminal emulator. You should see something like
Code:
[email protected]_c:/ $
The dollar sign tells you that you do not have root permissions.
2. Type in
Code:
su
This will give you root permission so you can rename the file for the camera sound. The $ will now change to #.
3. Now you'll type in a confusing mess
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
which will allow you to write files, needed since you are renaming something.
4. Now you need to move into the directory that has the camera sound file.
Code:
cd /system/media/audio/ui
5. The only thing left is to rename the audio file.
Code:
rename camera_click.ogg camera_click.ogg.bkup
Since this only renames the file you can get the sound back by doing the same steps again except for the final step which will be
Code:
rename camera_click.ogg.bkup camera_click.ogg
Hello everyone,
I just got my mopho q yesterday and received the ota this morning. I see at the top it says the razor rot method may or may not work. I just wondering ifanyone could confirm this. I want to root my phone but i don't want to unlock the boot loader just yet.

That it may be, but I'd rather do things without having to pay. Root Explorer costs about $4.

ES File Explorer (free) can rename & move system files if you give it root access from settings.
It is good to learn command line anyway, thanks.
