I ask you guys if someone is able to add in camera settings an option to disable the camera sound, it's not present in the stock app
the only way I found is to disable system volume via cVolume
anyone ? thx

Where's the file located?
+1 I hate that sound
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
if you want it to sound different, just replace it with a different file.
if you don't want to hear it, just rename it.
if you want an automated process to do it, just make a simple script that renames it back and forth between the proper name and anything else (remember to mount r/w)
i don't get why people want this as an option.. is there EVER a time when you actually want it to make the sound? just nuke it... why waste the space for a radio button or check-box?
*edit* also, @deadpoux ... it's not an option in the stock rom because they've been trying to make it a legal requirement in many places, including the US. Not sure if this has passed or not, but here's the first link I found about it. http://www.tgdaily.com/consumer-electronics-features/41212-camera-click-sound-could-become-legally-required
sorry in advance for being so noob, but.... how can I delete/rename the file?
Tried using terminal emulator on the phone, but get no permission message....
please advise.
thnks
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
Should do the trick.
if you're not comfortable with using adb, just download "rootexplorer" and navigate to the directory then in the upper right corner, click the button to select "r/w" access (read/write) and then long click camera_click.ogg and delete or rename, etc...
then switch back to "r/o" (read only) when you're done.
I will mention if you use root explorer, be VERY careful, if you poke around too much, you may cause issues with your phone. I can't see anyone actually bricking their phone with it, but it would require a reflash at the very least. I'd recommend at least trying to understand adb basics.
thanks guys, I used adb with your suggestion and now the camera is silent!!
thanks again!

That's the actual picture taking sound. If you hold the trackball to focus, there is another sound before the picture is taken.

Isn't that just the sound of the "Volume Up/Down" sound? In that case i wouldn't remove that one :-/
Re: [request]disable camera sound from camera settings
no i think its another one.
i guess we could listen to them all the find the second sound......

depending on what rom ur on
CM 5.0.5.3 has desire camera port and it has the shut shutter sound off in options
its a bit more difficult getting the CM 5.0.5.3 desire camera port to work on CM 5.0.6 and the app is obviously on the desire rom's, enom's official rom has the use for it as well
unzip & push this .ogg file to /system/media/audio/ui

Yes, this is very annoying.
In response to the iPhone and MGS2 lock/unlock sounds...I decided to make my own. (I would link back to them but since I'm a new member, I can't.)
The iPhone sounds were better than stock but still bland. MGS2, while I'm a Metal Gear fan, those sounds have always grown to be very annoying after a few hours of using them. So I made some that were unique but not annoying (for me at least). Zipper sounds. Just made sense to me.
I'll be making more just because I get bored easily. So, as I make more, I'll upload them here. Share your own too!
(Remember, they have to be in .ogg format. The easiest way to convert is to download Audacity, open the file you want, edit if needed, and export to ogg.)
Sweet ill watching this thread!

+1. unless I'm blind, I'm not seeing an option to set the lock tone, just to have it function. Love to do it, but Idk where the phone is seeing the stock sound, or how to change it. :/
Put files in the tools directory .
-adb remount
-adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/Lock.ogg
-adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/Unlock.ogg
-adb push "lockfile.ogg" /system/media/audio/ui/
-adb push "unlockfile.ogg" /system/media/audio/ui/
-reboot
Or you can always use root explorer from market to move files around.

Do you have to to have a rooted froyo to do this?
hi awesome sounds but wondering what is the name of the sound file for the tap sound the sound froyo makes when you tap anything with the finger... can that be replaced??
Can anyone tell me how i can replace the "click" sound for the Unlock screen on the new 2.2 ROM that was leaked? i want to use the Droid sound .ogg file instead of the unlock sound HTC put in.
I tried doing a adb push Unlock.ogg /system/media/audio/ui
but it didn't replace it,
I did it in recovery and it said it went through, but audio is the same
am I missing a command?

Hey guys,
I know this thread is a bit old but I am new to this stuff and have very little idea about how to do this.
Is there a resource somewhere here that explains the how to's for guys like me?
Or just a noob guide to making my dinc play a different sound when I unlock it.
Thanks so much.
It was explained earlier in the thread. For this update zip method reboot into recovery. Go into mounts/storage mount system and data. Then flash your update zip just make sure to rename the audio file in the zip to the file name mentioned above. Hope that helps.

No... that is not a flashable zip. You need to extract the file from the zip, rename it and adb push to its location. If this doesn't make sense, don't bother cuz you can f#ck up your phone...

That will not work, you must convert the file from mp3 to ogg first, use this site to do that
http://media.io/
simply upload your file you want to use, select the format you want to convert to (.ogg for UI audio (ie: unlock sound, alert sound, etc)
before sending to your phone, be sure to rename the audio file to be exactly the same name (including Caps) ie: Unlock.ogg NOT unlock.ogg
I hope this helps, if it does, please click "Thanks"!
The reason for the caps vs lowercase is because this is a Linux operating system, in Linux, the OS see's file names as OS files if there named a certain way, take for example
if you put a folder called Media on your SD card's root, and then have another folder called "Notifications" inside that, the phone will show those files as Notification sounds when selecting them to change
if the folder was called media and not Media, the phone would ignore it If its on the SD card, but if its inside the System folder it won't.
Media>Notifications>Name.ogg <<SD card))
Media>Audio>UI>Name.ogg <<system/media/audio/ui) internal memory
but all the audio files inside the System/Media/Audio/UI folder have caps then lowercase.
Unlock.ogg
Lock.ogg
VideoRecord.ogg
KeypressReturn.ogg
KeypressDelete.ogg
Effect_Tick.ogg
camera_click.ogg
if you rename a file that doesn't exactly match what the system wants, it will not replace the existing one and still use the stock one.
make sense yet? (No Pun intended) lol
do you get it? (the UI folder must be inside the System/Customize/
What you said makes sense. Although I can't seem to get that website to work from my phone. Every time I click convert, I says cannot locate. Do I need to do this from a computer?

can't do it on your phone, it uses java and some other sort of code that won't work on a mobile phone.
simply save it to your pc where you know it would be easy to find and then just push it using ADB (make sure you move or save the file inside the tools folder of the sdk if you push it using adb or it adb won't find it
SUCCESS! I was actually able to use a different site using my phone. http://www.online-convert.com/
I then used root explorer to rename and copy the file into the correct system folder. Works great now. My only complaint is that it seems I can't control the volume of the lock/unlock sounds I chose using any of the volume settings. It's always on full blast unless I set to silent or vibrate. Any ideas? Thanks.

SUCCESS AGAIN!! I did some research and found out you can change the system volume, which controls the lock sounds, via an app called Audio Manager. I just used the free widget version and lowered my system volume by one or two. Works great. I don't personally use the widget portion of the app. Thanks for everyone's help on this. Hope my trials help someone else find the answers they need.

lol yeah, its media volume is what you want to control the sounds volumes, and you can control this under settings>sound>volume
be carefule with those volume apps they can screw up your speaker, some are designed to send more voltage to your speaker than it can handle making it louder but as an end result can fry your speaker and cause it to crackle or have static

Actually, media volume does nothing to adjust the lock sounds once you change them. System sounds is what you want to change. Although keep in mind that this also changes the volumes for 'sound on keypress' and 'audible selection' options. I just lowered mine from 7 to 6 and it made a HUGE different in the volume.

That's why I dont use them to make anything louder, but more to individually control each sound. If I want music or something louder, I'll plug my phone into some sort of external system.

You guys doing this on a stock sense rom? Because i've done the exact same thing and nothing changes on either the unlock screen or the camea shutter.
Hey everyone, I took some time today to change the default boot animation and sound; here are the results:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkZqLGg8cBA
Instructions can be found at the links under the video. As always, all credit is to those who have made the animation and provided the sound clip!
On a side note: Does anyone know how to change the shutdown animation? I've tried guides online which tell you to change the system/media/video/shutdown files, but that directory (starting from /video) doesn't even exist on the G2X!
Dude those say epic 4g on them, why don't you actually post a version for our phone.

Ok.. So where the heck is the PowerOff.apk located at? I've searched all over in RE and can't find it..
Also, why don't we just make APKs of boot animation/shutdowns and sounds to go along with them? I mean it seems like it should be easy. Maybe that's just my ignorance of some Android "thing".
Oh there it is, .system/app/PowerOff.apk - went cross-eyed looking at them all.
hmm, when I look in the poweroff.apk I find only like 10 images for the shutdown animation. and it has both a MP3 and a OGG shutdown sound, both the same. It also has a LG shutdown image set AND a verizon shutdown image set. Amusing stuff. So I cant modify this file and then just save it and it work right? It has to be signed or some such? and what controls how long it runs, the layout XML file?
Ok, Wel I answered my on question on the first part, but not sure about the layout XML file and what it does. I just renamed the LG animation files to what the T-mo files were named and poof, it worked. I made a backup of the file OFC. I can't seem to make it go beyond those file names of PowerOff_000.png - PowerOff_0010.png. It always cuts off there.
Is there a way to turn off the sound that happens when you take a picture with the camera?
Thanks

If the Camera App doesn't have that option under Settings and your phone is rooted, you can disable it using a
root explorer App and navigate to: system/media/audio/ui
and rename the file "camera_click.ogg" to whatever you want.
This isn't really a solid solution to your problem (could be a hassle to you), but if you put your phone on silent or vibrate you will not hear the shutter sound go off! This works for me as because my phone is always in vibrate mode from the moment I wake up, however like i said not a solid solution if you don't prefer silent or vibrate mode.
Just mute your ringer. It works, at least in EU version.

The option doesn’t exist in the settings. Muting the phone before every time I use the camera is too much of a nuisance since I keep the sound on for other apps.
So, since my phone is rooted, your option of renaming the sound file is the best one for me. Tried it and it worked perfectly.
Thank you!

The option in settings is a custom ROM feature that some ROMs have. Keep in mind that removing the .ogg won't disable the sound for the HDR+ mode in Google Camera, as its embedded into the apk. You could use a Tasker profile to mute it when your camera app is open, too.

I purchased Tasker long ago, just to support the author, but to my shame I have not yet learned how to use it...... ?
That would indeed be a good use for Tasker. Maybe I will find a ready made profile (if that's what they are called) that someone else donated.

OK here you go man. Let me know if you have any issues. I did test it. If you have notification sound issues while this profile is active (only while in camera app) let me know. I'll find a workaround.
Make sure you remove the .XML extension (leave the .prl). Move to SDCARD/Tasker/Autoimport. Relaunch Tasker.
