[Q] mute shutter camera sound - Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

anyone here knows how to shut it?
tried the s2 method (system sound)
and tab method (can't find the setting in camera app)

I just know how to mute shutter sound
You have to root your tab. And you can change file in /system/media/audio/ui/
The file is ' Shutter.ogg '. I recommend changing name such as ' Shutter.ogg1 ' .
After changing name you should reboot your device.
But dont know how to mute auto-focusing sound.

Hey,
I found this solution on another forum.
1. Open your root directory/Data
2. If there is a file called local.prop, open it. If not, create it. (/Data/local.prop)
3. Add this line to file:
ro.camera.sound.forced=0
4. Save and reboot tab.
This also silences auto focus.

Put your tab into silence or vibrate mode, it should silence all camera sound.

Silence mode disables camera sounds.

Ideally yes, alas this did not work. My tab would still make sounds when the camera was used even when all volume settings were 0. I have read some anecdotes that this was built in to address voyeurism concerns.

Voyeurism concern doesn't apply to other camera app you can find in market. Some camera apps don't even give you an option to disable sound, as they are operating silently anyway.

My wife has Galaxy Tab 7.7 P6810 and I'm trying to mute the camera shutter sound, tried silent mode but no luck. Hope there's a fix or update for this even the device is not rooted.

Try muting everything. I'm not so sure but one of the controls here can mute camera sound.

Nice curtains!....where did you get them??
Afraid that this doesn't happen to me, what do you mean by "taking pictures with applications?" I only use the camera application.
Smart Measure and Little Photo are applications i used so far and found same problem in both. Something tells me other applications will be no different.
Have the same problem sometimes... like in that program that makes the people fat
Open your camera app, go into settings, and turn off wide screen picture aspect ratio. Exit camera app.
Now when you use other applications does it still do this?

Tried that, tried turning features off, changing ISO etc. but all this did nothing.
Same problem here. Some other camera apps work though.

yep same here! When using the FatBooth App i get the curtains. But when using the standard photo app it's all ok. Also tried a lower resolution and the widescreen off, no difference...
Safe Mode did not help, will wait for HTC's response. Also there was one picture that looked normal when i was browsing gallery, but when i tapped on it to view it in full screen the "curtains effect" appeared. Weird...

[Req] SMS/MMS sent time , Silent Camera

Im suprised that no one has modded this or even requested for this mod yet.
SMS/MMS sent time and silence the camera during focus and picture taking.
Upping this request till its filled
the time on the sms should show on the message when it is sent and received, it does on mine using the stock sms client
put the phone on silent and the camera shutter sound isnt audible then

Lolwut?
Could you post a screen shot that is shows both time sent and received?
Putting the phone in silent mode does not silence the camera shutter sound.
Just rename shutter_01.ogg in system/media/audio/ui

Not to be rude but do you actually know what SMS/MMS sent time mod does?
It reads the time stamp when the carrier got the message and not when it went into your phone, same for example I send you an SMS at 1:00PM but at that time your phone is either off or out of coverage area and by 5:00PM you get my text message with a time stamp of 1:00PM instead of 5:00PM.

A buddy of mine just got the samsung galaxy nexus with ICS from verizon. I made him a custom ringtone and sent it to him. He long pressed it, saved it but can not set as a ringtone. He and i went to vzw and a rep stated it was a ICS issue and not a hardware issue. Has anyone ran into this issue and if so, is it software or hardware issues

Software, there's no custom ringtones in ICS I think.

Sorry to contradict u but I am on a ics leak. I download "ring tone maker" from the market to make your own custom ring tones.

Yeah, well custom ringtones aren't supported on ICS anymore.

"You can overclock as much as you want, your phone will always seem too slow."
He hooked his phone to his PC and it installed the drivers, then reconized the phone as a "mass storage device" and had several folders one of which was "ringtones" he copied and pasted his MP3 tones there. Once undocked from the PC, the phone reconized the sounds as ringtones and he was able to set them as such.

Can you not just put the file into a self created media folder? It should then display as an option?
In Froyo, While listening to music, you press menu and there will be a 'Set as Ringtone' option, Would be totally awkward if ICS dont have it.
There is "set as ringtone" option in ICS. Also you can create a media folder in the SD card and put ringtones there.
There is an app in the market ringtone maker that uses your media to make custom ringtones.

with ics is not possible
I'm running ICS 4.0.4 and it works fine for me. I can either long press the music track and "Use as Ringtone" or select it from the menu.
I did not realize of that long press method it works.

Before you say something....think.....
It is possible. You need to have the right folder location to add it to the list of ringtones. There's one for notifications and one for ringtones. That's how the music apps are able to add them.
/ringtones for ringtones
/notifications for notifications
/alarms for alarms

or you could do
media/ringtones for ringtones

Doesn't matter where they are as long as they're named correctly.

Any way to enable 180° rotation on stock Rom

I've looked everywhere in the settings, and I just can't find anywhere to enable this setting... Is there a mod I can flash for this out there somewhere?

Check out an app called 'Screen Rotation Control' in the play store. I was using it on my S3. I just tested it for my Nexus 5 and it appears to work for it too as long as you have rotation enabled in the settings.
With xposed framework + gravity box you can get it.

Didn't work. Said it had set "reverse portrait", but didn't actually do anything.

Make sure you have the "Auto-rotate screen" option checked in your Display settings and try again.

It was set to auto rotate. I tried all the settings in that app; none worked.

I installed xposed framework, but I don't think it actually worked on my device. Every time I tried to load a module, it just failed and said I needed to reboot (yes, I actually tried rebooting). I'm using Franco Kernel R14, think that could have something to do with it?

Here's what I do to get the 'Screen Rotation Control' app to work on my stock N5
1. Start app
2. Select reverse portrait
3. Go into Settings ---> Display and enable 'Auto-rotate screen'
If I do things in that order, as soon as I enable 'Auto-rotate screen', the display immediately flips 180 degrees.
The best app to enable 180 degree rotation on my Samsung A3 2016 (Marshmallow Android 6.01) I have found is this one (available on the Play Store):
Rotation Control
It is free and works very well to be able to actually rotate the device in all directions. Because the headphone jack and charger is on the bottom of the phone, it is very inconvenient that Samsung blocks the 180 degree rotation completely. With this app you need to apply the following settings (see picture) and enable autostart and the problem is fixed. You can now rotate your device in any direction. You can also lock it in any direction. And it is completely free and does not demand any special permissions.

(HOW TO) Get PowerAmp working on 4.4.x ROMs.

I was playing around with CM11 today, and I was getting a little annoyed that PowerAmp repeatedly locked up between songs so I started to tweak it a bit!
There is no guarantee this will work, but these are the settings I have used to successfully get PowerAmp to work.
First of all, all of this takes place in the audio section under 'settings'.
1.) We are going to go to crossfade, gapless and fade section. Uncheck EVERYTHING. Make sure your settings look like mine below. (I think this is the main culprit).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2.) Next, we will go to 'advanced tweaks' section. Audio thread priority and audio buffer need to be set to 'normal' and 'auto'. Below are my settings.
3.) Lastly, this is optional but it works for me. I turned OFF equalizer, and tone. I left limit ON, because it seems on CM11 the music gets distorted at high levels. With these my music is pretty crystal clear.
This worked for me, so I figured I'd share my results. Hope it helps at least one person out!
Also my music is currently on my external SD card, not sure of that makes a difference or not in the end result.
