[Q] Disable Shutter Sound w/o root or 3rd party app - Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE

Is there any way to disable the shutter sound? I just picked up a Photon Q for my wife and I, and this sound is loud and annoying. I don't want to root the phone yet, and would like to keep the stock photo app. I tried the Enforced Stream Silencer app, but that didn't work. Any ideas?

As far as I know that's negative.

You could use a crappy app like "Uva Silent Camera Free"...
Not a good solution, I know. I was kinda surprised when placing the phone on 'silent' didn't do a damned thing to that really loud camera shutter sound...
Otherwise, if you could mount /system R/W you could easily 'fix' this issue

if you are rooted get root explorer and go to /system/media/audio/ui and move or delete the item called camera click and it won't even when you take a screen shot

just renaming it to camera_click.ogg.bkup is enough, if you wanted to keep the file around to make it like stock again.

Did you guys both miss the "without root" caveat? He put the "without third party apps" caveat after my post

lol I missed it

I appreciate the method for those with root. I'll change that file today. i read in online reviews that you can't get rid of the sound under normal methods. I figured I wouldn't care, but its more annoying than I thought. People ask me all the time if i can turn that crap off.

Yea, if you have root... it's a very effective method

I figured this was doable but never dug around for it, it feels so eerie now that it doesn't make any noise, I might instead edit the file to reduce the volume.

I don't have the Photon anymore, but there is an apk somewhere on this board that is called Enhanced Silencer. That worked perfectly on my Photon and didn't require root.
I should say that it did work for the regular Photon, but not sure 'bout the Q.

[Q] insensitive touchscreen in areas

The screen on my tablet becomes insensitive in certain areas, requires hard presses or doesn't respond at all. Funny thing is the problem seems to go away after about 30 min of use but returns if the screen is locked and unlocked. Anyone having similar issues or a fix? Currently running vegantab beta 4 but had same problems with tnt lite.
EDIT: this is the exact issue I have although this is not my video

Search for Calibration Fix in these forums. Depending on which ROM you are running, you can either create an empty file named calibration.ini file and put it at the root of your /sdcard or /sdcard2 and reboot. that seems to fix the issue for many people.
Thanks for the help! That fixed my issue.
im having the same issue. but this fix is not fixing the problem, unless i am doing something wrong. I am using the vegan rom.
I've used astro to create a new zip file called calibration.ini
but not working....am i doing something wrong the way I am making the .ini file? If so what is the correct way. (sorry if I am sounding completly stupid, I'm actually computer literate lol)
Is there another way to calibrate the screen?
I'd create the calibration.ini file on BOTH /sdcard and /sdcard2, then power off/on, not touching the screen, since there's apparently a hacked version of the calibration program, just to be sure.
have already tried that to no avail lol

Hi,
Sorry, didn't read your post carefuuly enough. Did you say you created a *ZIP* file?
Should be just an empty file, with filename all lowercase.

ok...not real sure how to do that.
can you give me a step by step?
I'm just now starting to dabble in android so im still low in the learning curve, sorry.

You can probably use ES File Explorer. Use that and browse to /sdcard. Click menu icon (the 4 lines icon), then New on bottom, then file, and type the 'calibration.ini' for file name. Do same for /sdcard2.
Power off, then on.
After completely on, use File Explorer again, to delete those files, otherwise it'll try calibrate every boot.

My understanding is that the calibration apparently runs once when you power up, if it finds that calibration.ini file. No prompts or visible display.

It doesn't do anything different that you'll see at start-up. Make sure you let it sit for a minute after it starts so you don't mess it up.

How do you calibrate a touchscreen without registering touchpoints? Hmm. Interesting. I guess I should try this since people report it working. I don't have a problem when holding it landscape, but in portrait mode unless I'm reading an e-book, I find myself having to pay attention to touching buttons.

Well, I've certainly seen other touchscreens that do more sophisticated calibrations. Nonetheless, this seems to calibrate the un-touched state and it seems to achieve good enough results that everybody I've seen who's tried it with touchscreen sensitivity issues, issues with pinch-and-zoom, issues with soft keyboard keys in certain areas of the screen and so on, has posted that it fixed the issues for them.
Do not touch the screen while the tablet is booting. Wait for it to completely boot. The calibration process will pick up your touch, and interfere with the calibration process. I noticed today I picked it up and carried it across the room while booting the the screen was totally unresponsive. I have never noticed that problem ever before (I am old fashioned and still running 2.00 with the calibration hack added). When I rebooted it was fine and I remembered the developers for my Odroid T has said the same thing while they were working on a better screen calibration routine on boot.

[GUIDE] Increase Speaker/Head Phone Volume

All credit goes to Meltus from G1 forum. I use this on my G1 and gave it try my transformer and it worked great.
Please make a nandroid backup before you attempt this.
Please place files attached below in same directory as ADB!!!!!
adb remount (sudo adb remount for linux users)
- wait for the 'remount succeeded' message
adb push AudioFilter.csv system/etc
adb push AudioPara4.csv system/etc
adb push AudioPreProcess.csv system/etc

thats great wonder how tinny they ate going to get at full blast after this mod.
How big of a difference are we talking here?
its probaably the only thing Im really dissapointed about is the speakers on my Transformer. The speakers on my iPad 2 are so much better than these. A well deserved MOD
Can't seem to get the adb remount command to work. Says I dont have permission.
i tried using everyting in the attached zip, but cannot tell a difference.
after i send the files.. is there a setting i have to turn on?
i tried powering off and on my transformer and theres no difference..
so i'm wondering if i am doing anything wrong?
I would assume that as this is dealing with system access you need to be rooted for this to work, so mentioning that in the first post might be advisable. Also, details on what it actually fixes might be nice. If it's just volume levels then this can easily be done with apps from the market. Cheers.

Well, not for everything. Only to protected areas of the filesystem.
The changes these file should max out the speaker without distorting the speaker. The transformer speakers is horrible. The edited files should max the speaker even though it is horrible. I noticed the difference when I have the head phone plugged.
Tried this and there was the sound of distortion even with no music playing.

As said above, Volume+ is one. Or basically type the word 'volume' into the market and get about 20 apps pop up that will do the same job. There's also one called 'Equalizer'.

Same here, volume+ works great. I had equalizer but fc's ever 10 min pushed me to try volume+. I've been using it just over a week an have not had any fc

I think I may have discovered a fix for the audio issues...

So ever since I got this phone, I've been dissatisfied with the audio quality. No matter what I did, no matter which equalizer I tried, the sound was too low, too muffled, and just plain BAD. I bought a new bluetooth car stereo this week & I haven't even been able to enjoy it that much cause the streaming audio sounds like ear-rape. Tonight I was messing around with Bloat Freezer and I noticed a system app on the list called "Music enhancer". I wondered if this had anything to do with the craptastic audio quality, so I decided to freeze it & see what happened. To my joy, my music now sounds FAR better! It's like night & day, no more crackling, no more muffled audio
I dunno if anyone else is having problems with audio of if this little trick has already been discovered, but I figured I'd share with the class either way. Don't forget to hit that thanks button if I've helped you out

Unfortunately, this way won't keep it turned off for long, it'll eventually restart. The only way to really "kill" apps until we get real root is to temp root & freeze them.

I'm playing music. I haven't noticed much difference with ringtones. I really dunno if this tweak will work for everyone, YMMV, but hopefully now that we have some clues we can delve a bit deeper into this issue. One thing that you might try though, is disabling it via ADB. I've noticed that some frozen apps don't get totally frozen unless you do it with ADB.
Froze it using Titanium Backup. Testing now.
OP - in the HTC Music app, Settings > Sound Enhancer, did you have that set to "None"?
I do and the sound on my phone is quite good, without your procedure.
I actually find that the Music Enhancer HELPS my audio quality. Without it, its like listening to music with the headphones sitting on a table in front of me rather than on my ears...
I guess I am just lucky? I have none of the problems that others have been reporting...All except for one big one...DUST UNDER THE SCREEN! (Im on the 2nd phone too!)

This Android stuff takes some getting used to.
The only thing I'm finding is that I have to kill the app' again when I restart the phone,otherwise it does seem to make a difference.
Always get a clicking sound when audio starts regardless of the source with and without this fix.
Just like my Nexus 1, this phone has crap audio quality over headphones and on the speaker. not to mention the mic. HTC seems to always cheap out on these components, my Nexus S was FAAAR superior in this regard. Although I sold it for the bigger screen, and more powerful processor.
Wish there was a way to restore a backup of DSP Manager. I've tried with TB, but the restore option is not available.

ICS Perfection

I have been here reading about the glitches folks are having with the ICS leak such as shutdown-reboot freeze, freeze on mms deletion, battery consumption and others. I am happy to say that I have not experienced any of these glitches, other than the contacts tab missing from the phone app (and thats is not even technically a glitch). I have been resistant to flashing any of the new CWM Roms because this original oneclick version runs so perfectly for me. Is there anything from my phone that the Devs might want to look at to help narrow the cause of these issues that others are having?
Same, no issues here. This is the first leak that I have had no problems with.
Same here no issues except for shutdown :-(.... Im trying to fix though

first flash was perfect, i borked it trying to import AOSP pieces haha
second flash was no home button, factory reset fixed that, still have the reboot problem though.
sometimes when i use rynga or viber i loose the incall sound so i have to restart the phone to fix it.. and i use them but then i loose the sound again

Nope, no FC on deleting mms or sms. I will make a screencast video to show the normal operation. I was hoping that maybe some files in my phone would be useful to a dev to get it fixed for others. The only thing I have done to it other than install basic apps is to root and add GO Launcher with ics theme.
Can anyone confirm that tethering (non-AT&T approved) is working with the leak? That's the one thing keeping me from upgrading from the GB from I'm on.

I have done some further reading and noticed the people not getting these problems are the ones such as myself who did no kind of wipe before using Odin and oneclick solution to upgrade from GB to ICS. I did no wipes only because I got ahead of myself accidentally. Maybe this time it paid off for me. Has anyone looked into the possibility that it is the initial wipe process causing the issues that are being presented?

From what I've read, TWRP isn't doing proper nandroids, and there isn't a stock image to flash. At the risk of sounding "elitist," I'd recommend going slow.
At&t didn't even have the HTC 10 when I went in. The good days are dying....Root, I will miss you

yup, they passed on the HTC 10
I haven't gotten the phone yet (though LG store has already called me that I can get it already just been busy due to all saints day festivities) so wanted to ask, how did you root your v20? and what version is your V20?

So your saying LG doesnt have an app to reflash to stock FM? i see threads for the stock T mobile firmware. What about the nandroid issue with twrp do you know where the github repo is for our version of twrp i'll check it out.

I know what's in the root thread in the development section.
Is this what you're looking for?
The problems with the .tot files in a nutshell.
I'm not a dev. I can bearly muddle my way around ADB commands. I know what I know from watching the struggles in the root thread. Yeah, there's root and little else. The process doesn't seem quite ready for prime time which of course hasn't stopped the root commandos.
I CAN CONTROL THE WORLD WITH ROOT! LOL . No but really, what can't you do with root? you can do everything as long as the phone doesnt required to implement any new hardware within the phone... I like my Adaway, and greenify, and removes or freeze apps i dont like nor need, I like my pie bar for faster shortcuts (sure, the phone itself has the second screen to put up to 5 apps, but the pie bar give you a lot more options so i will have the 5 on the second screen plus the many mores in the pie bar which is a fast process too, maybe even faster than the second screen), i also like my xposed for every module i desire, AND MY BELOVED TITANIUM BACKUP! and many many more things
The one thing I hope and pray to see come from this newly acquired root is a camera mod that will allow 16MP in full 16:9. Please pull through devs! I would donate for that :highfive:

That's likely because the sensor isn't 16:9 shaped, it's 4:3. You have to crop the sensor to get 16:9.

Had this in ALLO... Much nicer to be able to hit the home button though. Very nice work around...
