Is there a way to disable the camera shutter sound on CM7 without the obvious ( turning the phone on silent)? I can't find a setting like in the sense camera app
You can use your favorite file management app (make sure to mount /system as R/W) or adb to delete or rename the following file:
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg

using Root Explorer, in R/W mode, i can delete camera_click.ogg (or rename it), but it just comes right back. thoughts?
Use Tasker and have it turn off system sounds when camera app is open. Works wonders for me.
Also Tasker is perfect for turning my ringer down during work hours, putting phone on Airplane mode in the middle of the night (i average 1-3% battery drop over 8 hours of sleep) and disabling the lockscreen while plugged into power. It's a great program and worth the few bucks.
use root explorer and copy camera_click.ogg and then use ringdroid or another audio adjustment app to shorten the track to almost nothing or make it a silent audio track and drop it back in the right system folder. worked for me.
ringdroid doesn't support .oog filetypes as of yet. I like the idea though...
Any 1 know of an editor that does?
now that I seen this thread the camera sound gets on my nerves

With your phone or computer, make a one second or so silent audio file in either wav or mp3. Look at the properties of the camera_click.ogg to find out what bitrate and sample rate it is. Find a free audio converter program that can go to ogg. Set the encoding parameters to similar of the original ogg file. Rename the original ogg to something else and name the new file exactly the same as the original file. It works, I've done it many times before.
I've also had crashes in the program like camera or camcorder if the sound file is missing.

I just used Root Explorer to rename the file:
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
to
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg.old
Works fine. Although that just silences the actual shutter sound, the phone still makes the beeps after done auto-focusing. Any ideas on that?
Tasker is an awesome tool.

I'd be looking for that also, exactly how to disable/rename whatever sound is responsible for that beep when focusing.
I miss the simple ability to disable sounds from the sense camera... also the ability to touch focus too
Remove camera click

You can replace the file /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg with the camera_click.ogg file that I placed inside of the attached zip. This works for CM7.
Wrong thread this belongs in the Q&A forum .
Bumping this up for any information on how to disable or quiet the auto-focus beeps. I read something that hinted that the beeps aren't a sound file but a function call to the tone generator? Is there a modified version of the camera APK for CM7 with this removed?
Regarding the shutter sound, what I do is rename camera_click.ogg to .bak and then copy effect_tick.ogg to camera_click.ogg. This gives a nice quiet but audible feedback that the picture has taken without being too loud. But the focus sound still distracts or wakes the baby...

This will remove all camera sounds from cm7. Flash in recovery

Hey thanks, I'll try that out. Is there any way to disable only the focus sound but allow the shutter sound? If this simply rewrites the camera_click.ogg I can replace it again afterwards - if the APK is modified to not even call it though, is there any instruction on grafting that back in?

Im also looking for this fix. I have the Korean Model phone, and the local.prop option does not work;
Perverts...
Mainly an issue I found using 4.0.4. When muting media volume completely, the phone still makes a shutter noise unless you put it on silent mode.
Is there anyway to just disable it altogether by editing system files or whatnot? Or an app or something that can do it? Or reassigning the sound to something less attention grabbing? I usually take picture of slides during class time and it would be annoying for my phone to keep making shutter noises every two seconds for the slides I need.
Thanks!
If you have a headphone jack plugged into it, even if the wires are cut. I belive it silences everything. You can try that. Otherwise CyanogenMod roms have that option built into them. I'm sure plenty of other roms do too.
I'm running AOKP and if it's on silent there's no shutter noise.. I think
just delete the shutter and recording .ogg files.
located in /system/media/audio/ui

That worked. I just renamed it to whatevername.ext.old instead of renaming it.
Thank you!
thank you for you answer
/system/media/audio/ui/. Some files in there, likely the Effect_Tick.ogg or maybe a Keypress*.ogg.
thanks but thats not the solution
i know where is the file and if i play it in the player it is much louder (playing through the media vol) than played by the system ui vol
how can i control the system ui volume?
Pretty much all of your options are located in the Settings -> Sound menu. If they're at full, pretty much the only feasible way to increase sound is to either:
1. Edit the files i mentioned (audacity, for example, can do this)
2. Use an app such as Volume+. I'm unsure if this works on ICS though, i've not needed to jack up the volume myself.
Thanks
but you are still wrong i have volume+
and the touch volume is not controlled by any of the sound sliders in the sound menu
unless you put on vibrate then its mute
When I connect my headphones and listen to music, volume is pretty loud.
When I get a call, the volume during the call through the headphone is very low. Is that a standard thing in MI4?
I replaced one mi4 with another, and that also has the same issue.
If its a standard issue, is there any fix for that?

That might help. If you don't have CWM or TWRP recovery, you can unpack zip and copy /system/etc/*.xml files to phone with Root Browser or similar app. Remember to set same permissions as original files.
Hey all, I was wondering if anyone had managed to disable the blip sound when you adjust the volume. I can't find any option to do this nor can I locate the sound file it plays though most system sounds are in /system/media/audio/
