Is there a way to turn off the annoying camera shutter on CM7? Or at least put the volume down?
It's so darn loud
Either but your phone on silent or delete the files in system/media/ui camera_click.ogg and VideoRecodd.ogg

Change name of the file to something like (camera_click_off.ogg) that's what I did.

I tried changing the name and deleting it but it won't let me. It says Could not delete file. What app did you use to change the name? I am using the file manager that came on CM7

Root Explorer
I tried it with the explorer app not the root explorer one and when I tried to delete the file it said that the system file is a read-only file. I couldn't even change the name. Does the root explorer app give you access to be able to delete stuff from there?

I rooted my phone just to make this modification (it worked great) and immediately unrooted it. Now I need a warranty replacement. Will T-mobile detect this change? If so, can I just re-root, change the filename back to the original name, then unroot?
I doubt they'll be that nitpicky. To be safe though, just go for it

I went looking for those files to delete/rename, but the only one that was there was the video record one. The camera click file is missing. I renamed the video file at least. Despite that file not being there, I still have a shutter sound unless I manually turn it off. I looked all over for the camera click one, but I couldn't find it. Any suggestions?

Back when I was in the MyTouch3g game with roms I could remove most system apps without any unstablity...
What system apps are safe to remove?
Via RootExplorer/ADB/Terminal
MiUi w/ Matr1x is my daily Driver! Some Apps I am referring to are "Tags, Notes, SoundRecorder, GoogleSearch, DNDMode, Miuistats, News&Weather, and Email."
Again I am wanting to remove these system apps...
A Quick and Accurate reply would be greatly appreciated...

i do it via RE , also , some ROM like Brainmaster's MIUI , you can delete these apps in that zip file before you flash it , in /data and /system/app
also , you can do it via some Android optimizer

RE = RootExplorer?
What are the steps involved?
-Just go to system / app
-Mount R/W
-Long press selected app(s)
-Delete
-Mount R/O
Reboot
No permission changes?
Sent from my iPhone 4S using Siri
Just use titanium backup, For me the easiest way to remove system apps.
permission is needed when you put some file in these folder, deleting doesn't require it
yes, RE is root explorer, but strongly recommended make backup before you delete anything, actually i don't even mount it back to R/O again... don't even need reboot
---------- Post added at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------
better don't delete them, just multiselect, cut and paste them to other folder

You guys had the clockworkmod bootstrap installed. Uninstalling it does not restore two files that were changed in the system partition. This has been discussed many times in this forum. The bootstrapper backed them up when it changed them so you just need root (I use Root Explorer) and restore the two backed up files. Once you do that the OTA should install.
[Removing CWM Recovery]
1) Delete file /system/bin/logwrapper
2) Delete file /system/bin/hijack
3) Rename file /system/bin/logwrapper.bin to /system/bin/logwrapper
4) Delete directory /preinstall/recovery
If you had the boot into recovery hack then you need to restore this file also.
[Removing CWM on Boot]
1) Delete file /system/bin/mot_boot_mode
2) Rename file /system/bin/mot_boot_mode.bin to /system/bin/mot_boot_mode
Hello guys... I have never had clockwork mode recovery but I have some custom recovery, busy box, debloater that I have used to get Google Now on my Leaked 1 ICS Android... I receive error after rebooting and I don't know why and don't know where to find the logs... Now I uninstalled all these applications that could have caused some changes in the /sys folder and I am trying it again? What should I do?
UPDATE: Update error again!

Error will also show up if while updating you press vol up+vol down buttons it shows details.that may also help narrow it down

First off check last_log in cache and look what error it is giving.try a factory reset from the recovery.if you removed bloatware to install google now that would probably do it.you gotta replace them.but first check last_log

3.open es file explorer, enable root explorer in setting, go to cache/recovery

Are you rooted???
If yes use any file explorer root explorer,ES file explorer and the when you are in the root of your device you will see a cache folder there you will find last log
If you are not rooted in while updating just press vol up+vol down it will show you the details why the installation is failing.note the apk or lib that gives the error you need to fiz them.and btw try a wipe data from the recovery most files will be back up.

Right now I'm on leak2 so can't help you with that.did you take a backup of the app??
Ask someone who did and u'll need dlna.apk and dlna.odex files
or maybe i'm posting those files from leak 2 try moving them to system/app and change the permissions to match the files already in there.
You must be rooted for all these.
Btw did you try wiping data from recovery??

Simple answer, no.
You need either find and install DLNA.apk or fxz back to 2.3.6.
Sorry my question was not really understandable... The last question didn't have to do with the rest of the thread... I was asking for the backup cause I didn't want to lose them... I FXZ back at 2.3.5 and now I am at 4.0.4... I made a full backup when I was in the Leak #1... Now when I restore it back, will I have all my configurations or it is not worth it to restore it? And also will that restore the damaged file of DLNA as it was or nothing to do with that!!

You can not restore a backup from a different release, it is not wise and can cause a boot loop..... What are you worried about losing? Do you sync mail, and contacts and such? If you do you should be ok. The ONLY thing you will have to do is reinstall apps, and that is easy in the play store, just go to the my apps tab I think it is, and install all the ones you have in there that you want back on the phone. Yeah it is a PIA, to do an fxz then ota, then reinstall all your apps, but that is the price we pay for "hacking" our phones sometimes.

Try a different root browser (like root explorer) - I think ES has issues with actual root operations.
Other options might be adb or terminal emulator - but need to know a few commands for that..

TWRP puts backups in a folder corresponding to your device's serial number. Two devices, two serial numbers. Two different backup folders under /TWRP.

Like flashing a backup with the EFS also checked will ruin your device rendering it wifi only.

I've uploaded a few updated stock files for the Unlocked variant of HTC One A9 (1.12.617.6) in case anyone needs them.
USE THESE FILES AT YOUR OWN RISK!
They can be found here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8OH6sFjVE1ldGNjN29KX19zZm8
RUU_HIA_AERO_UL_M60_SENSE7GP_ATT_NA_Gen_Unlock_1.12.617.6.zip
This is an extracted zip of the latest HTC RUU.
This file will wipe everything on your phone EXCEPT External (SD) Storage
The easiest way to flash is to download the file, rename it to 2PQ9IMG.zip, copy it to your SD card, reboot to download mode and press volume up when prompted to flash
Otherwise, you can flash using htc_fastboot in RUU mode
fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip RUU_HIA_AERO_UL_M60_SENSE7GP_ATT_NA_Gen_Unlock_1.12.617.6.zip (what is htc_fastboot? it's HTC's very own fastboot utility that allows you to flash larger files than regular fastboot. where can you find it? it's not hard)
HTC_A9_2PQ9IMG_1.12.617.6_SystemImageBackupAndBoot.zip
TWRP system image backup. This file will restore your system to an unmodified state and should allow you to take an OTA Update if you're rooted or otherwise modified your system partition
This is NOT a flashable zip. It is a regular old compressed zip file.
Download it to your computer, unzip it, and copy the contents to the TWRP backup directory (sdcard/TWRP/Backups/.../...) on your device.
Boot to recovery
Go to Mount Menu and set System to Read-Only
Go to Restore and find and select this backup folder
Optional - I've included the stock boot image in case you have flashed a modified boot image and want to restore this as well
HTC_A9_2PQ9IMG_1.12.617.6_Stock_boot.img
stock boot image extracted from the 1.12.617.6 OTA update package
flash in download mode (fastboot flash boot HTC_A9_2PQ9IMG_1.12.617.6_Stock_boot.img)
HTC_A9_2PQ9IMG_1.12.617.6_Stock_recovery.img
Stock recovery for Unlocked edition (1.12.617.6)
Save this file in your fastboot folder
Boot to DOWNLOAD mode
Flash using fastboot (fastboot flash recovery HTC_A9_2PQ9IMG_1.12.617.6_Stock_recovery.img)

Did you copy my folder (2015-11-14--01-18-44_MRA58K_release-keys) into your TWRP backup directory?
Edit: if you don't have a TWRP backup directory, the easiest way to create one is to just run a backup of one of the small partitions (boot/recovery).
It worked... You're the best!!!!

That's the message when you try to restore? Did you go into the mount menu and mount system as read-only (there's a check box underneath all the partitions)?
Hello, somehow I've managed to delete my OS. I'm still unlocked and s-off but when I try to restore with your file it crashed. So I wiped everything and started over. Here's my issue now. I downloaded your file and extracted it to put onto an external sd. Once I did that I made a small backup in TRWP and moved the file to sd/TRWP but when I go to restore its blank with only the small back up showing. I can't put system to read only, it think its because I have no OS. I can click/unclick everything else just not system.

Hello, somehow I've managed to delete my OS. I'm still unlocked and s-off but when I try to restore with your file it crashed. So I wiped everything and started over. Here's my issue now. I downloaded your file and extracted it to put onto an external sd. Once I did that I made a small backup in TRWP and moved the file to sd/TRWP but when I go to restore its blank with only the small back up showing. I can't put system to read only, it think its because I have no OS. I can click/unclick everything else just not system.

You moved the backup folder under external_sd/TWRP/YOUR_SERIAL_NUMBER/ ? That's where it has to be for TWRP to see it. And that shouldn't prevent you from being able to mount system read-only (unless you're getting an error on /system, in which case you should wipe/format it).

Each time I hit a dead end, I wipe and format. I am getting an error saying unable to mount system. I sent some info over to @jcase about my device and he said that HTC sent me an engineer firmware version. Does that make a difference at all?

I also appreciate your patience with me @Captain_Throwback. I normally don't have issues with stuff like this.

Can you upload a copy of your recovery log? And please confirm where you're putting the backup folder?
