Camera Low Recording Sound Permanent Fix - Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps

Everybody knows camera's mike level is pretty low and no kernel sound adjustment work/stick and for a good reason. Qualcomm's drivers have automatic levels that prevent any adjustments. Those levels are controlled from a different place. Here is the permanent fix. Just flash the attached file and reboot. Check for yourself, it works 100% on CM based roms. Maybe on stock too, but I haven't tested stock. Enjoy.
Just make sure to untick any trickster or other sound mode...
P.S. I don't know why it shows 2 files, I uploaded once only and when I remove one, the second disappears. Anyway, click on any....

Thx

THX.. Works on crdroid...

Did anyone try it on stock?

I have compare with stock, and if I use this fix I lost some code in mixer_path. So I mod stock mixer_path include this fix.
I also add some mod for increase mic when incall and etc. File in attach add manual to system/etc.

You shouldn't just override stock xml file. You should open your mixer file and do text search for 'cam', then change the values in that section only. This way you won't be messing with other values, which may be different in stock.

Isn't it possible to add the z2/z3 microphone sensitivity options? Because on some occasions the low volume is good, while on others, you want a high volume..

its working with RR 5.5.6

[BLN] Button Led notifications

BLN is currently implemented in cyanogenmod / vurrutrom as a modification of the ROM (opensource liblights), not the kernel. Therefore it will work on every kernel.
You need the lights.latona.so file from cyanogenmod and must rename it to lights.omap3.so.
The correct, renamed file is attached for your convenience.
Make a backup of /system/lib/hw/lights.omap3.so and replace it with the attached file.
After that, change the permissions to match all other files in the folder and reboot.
Changing permissions on a terminal:
cd /system/lib/hw
chmod 644 lights.omap3.so
reboot bootloader
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if you want to use a root explorer, permissions for the file are rw-r--r--
Note that most Google apps and Facebook do support led notifications but touchwiz apps don't...
Further, if you are using any touchwiz apps, then you will need Light Flow from the market, to have notifications of those apps. Adjust Light Flow settings to your liking, but do not enable omap_bl control.
About Lightflow config:
On General settings > enable button backlight control
On notifications > enable button backlight LED and leave brightness at 255
Use led flash-rate very slow or always on (works best for me)
Works perfect with whatsapp on KPQ, thanks!
Thanks !!!
Tried it when you posted @bck kernel thread.
Good you opened a new thread.
Thanks. Working great.
Can you give some details/instructions about light flow settings? I'm finding it a bit difficult to set up.

would this work in miui rom ??

Will this add to the extra battery consumption? Or no noticable effects on battery? But this is really good work.

i tried it. no doubt, it works, but just for my opinion, after setting the config provided in the first post, the bln is not that real time, sometimes it just doesn't let you be notified. the bln is not consistent in other words. but this is great work. maybe there are some files that need to be configure, and work with lights.omap to make this mod consistent and reliable when it comes to notifying the user.
I am still saying that it will be great if we able to make bln mod in kernel itself. There are lots of apps which are available in market but it requires bln kernel mod. If we able to make it then easily we can change the blinking rate of bln like galaxy S users have done since age ago.

here's where i read the thread of bln control saying that blinking backlight (for notifications) can consume battery than static backlight (just for lighting the button when pressing backlight buttons).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=823922
but i really hope we can have this in every kernel and also making it as like it doesn't consume battery life at all, and also real time and consistent notifications.

I just read somewhere that cm 7.2 has released with some ICS features backported to GB. One of it is ICS rotation animation. Like how we have ported bln feature can we take a file from cm 7.2 which is responsuble for ICS rotation so that we can have ICS rotation animation in out stock GB formwares also???

It needs a lot of framework changes: look here for that reason every firmware version must be modded individually or a lot of problems will arise...
For now i'm looking forward to port full bln (kernel mod + this liblights) but i have little time because of college... you may try to decompile framework-res and make the changes yourself... everyone starts somewhere

[HOW TO] Remove camera sounds. ROOT REQUIRED

Hi all.. If you want to turn the sound of your camera then this is the trick if you use this with my mod of the camera... it should be completely mute. no focus sound or shutter sound.
use with this mod to eliminate all sounds (focus and shutter etc).
Stock camera no sound mod
Use a file explorer. In system writeable mode
Go to system/media/audio/ui
Then change the name of these files as on the picture.. You can name then what you want though. Reboot.. and enjoy. Working and tested on my I9505
This does not remove the little beep on manual focus.
as mentioned below.. there are several ways to do this...this is just my way, which is easy and it is easy to return to normal.. just remove the .backup again
The poweron.ogg is to remove boot sound

The good part about this app is that you will be able to reenable the shutter sound if you wish and the app can be uninstalled, also this app is not really needed as you can just add a line to the others.xml file in the CSC folder to achieve this. But yeah, you're way works as well
Thanks mate this is good knowledge.

Cool - I done this and it works a treat!!
**EDIT: This post refers to a mod which activates an unused menu option to switch off the shutter sound. Other sounds in the camera app will still be present. Thought I'd clarify this in case of any confusion.
Just in case anyone else wants to do this (I think this would be the 'correct' method of applying this fix as opposed to removing the sound file or muting your phone!), then here is a little guide.
Root access required of course, and I used Root Explorer to do the following:
In Root Explorer, navigate to the following location:
/system/csc and look for a file called 'others.xml'.
Long-press on this file and select 'Open With', and then select 'Text Editor'.
Scroll all of the way to the end and look for the following:
</FeatureSet>
</SamsungMobileFeauture>
Insert the following line just before the </FeatureSet> code.
Code:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Then pressing the 'Back' button will automatically save the file and back-up the original in the folder.
Restart your phone.
Now when you go into the camera, tap on the settings, so you get camera settings, video settings, and the general settings in a pop-up, press the settings icon/tab and scroll down and you can now select to toggle the sound on/off (second-last option).
Thanks to all above for guiding me to this little fix, it takes no time at all to apply. The camera sound was annoying me a bit and was surprised to see it wasn't a supplied function.
To revert, simply go back to the file you edited, delete it, then remove the '.bak' from the backed-up file.
And all credit to the original Dev. for the code for this mod, at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2162906
The CSC mod does not work for me. "/system/csc" does not exist on my i9505. Tried the app that does the CSC edits and still no go. Deleted the media/ui files and the camera focus sound is still there.
The only way that I can silence the camera is to place the phone is silent mode.
Anyone have any ideas for a fix?

I'm not familiar with the various rom folder structures, but I get the impression this one is pretty universal...
However, if you post your rom version then maybe someone can help you.
Also, if you deleted the sound file, did you reboot afterwards?

I was issued an Australian unbranded i9505 and flashed Omega3.0 which I gather already has the no-shutter mod implemented. However, the focus sound still remained. I did rebooted heaps afterwards and it was still the same.

The OP's topic of this thread is to remove the shutter sound (press the button to take a photo), not the focus sound. So the fix that is being discussed prior to your posts are not relevant to the focus sound.
@MRDOCA who posted before your above quoted message is on Omega and seems to think the shutter fix worked for him, so he must have found the correct folder location. But even so, this won't help you with the focus sound...
If you've found the shutter sound file in the media/ui folder and have rebooted, do you have custom recovery installed, can you wipe caches and reboot?
I'm out of ideas other than this, maybe someone else will recognise your problem and offer better assistance.

[MOD] Volume Boosting for SM-N900 [ROOT] * Discontinued *

*** DISCONTINUED DUE TO MY TIME RESTRICTIONS***
Hi All,
This is my first thread so please excuse me if I'm breaching any rules.
This is a Volume Boost MOD for SM-900 version of our beloved Note 3. You need a ROOTED Device!
MOD.zip is for a high boost and
MOD_Moderate.zip is for a moderate boost.
MOD_Little.zip is for a little boost. (This is intended to be in between Stock and Moderate)
Note that these are all relative and changes from one's taste to that of another.
This mod increases the Speaker volume when the speaker is on during
- a phone conversation,
- music playback
- Ringtones, notifications..etc
Additionally, there's a slight increase in the wired headphone during Music Playback.
1- BACKUP YOUR ysound.xml file under /system/etc. Then, Unzip the desired MOD provided in zip attached and overwrite ysound.xml file to /system/etc with the file explorer of your choice. Here, I used ES Explorer.
2- Once you're done unzipping and overwriting the existing ysound.xml file select the file then press "More" , then "Properties", then "Change" button for the "Permissions". Apply -rw-r-r-- for the permissions. Attached, you'll see the screenshots for the procedure.
3- Once you make SURE that you followed the instructions, reboot the device.
4- In case you want to come back to the original stock version of the file, either put back your backup or unzip the attached ORIGINAL.zip and apply the above 1 and 2.
Hope this is useful.
PS. Please can someone find out and share what the line 3558 is for in the modded file that I attached? Thank you.
Kartal, thanks for this mod, I think this is also valid for SM-N9000Q for Turkish phones, right?
Regards.

Yes, this MOD should work on all SM-900 models, including the Turkish SM-N9000Q. Mine is SM-N9000Q and it works flawlessly.
This MOD has nothing to do with the phone ID or firmware (as long as the device is SM-N900). Btw, you can easily change the phone ID.

I adjusted so that the music doesn't get distorted heavily. I suggest that you use it at around 90% volume as it sounds OK to me. Just try it yourself, start from 100% volume and come down gradually until you are happy with the sound.
I am pretty sure it is not gonna break your speakers, at least..

Unfortunately, there's no way to use this MOD without root. There are other apps in Google Play but they work differently (if they work for Note3 at all). This MOD modifies the xml script of Yamaha.

Not sure what you mean...the camera app on my S7E (Verizon, took the most recent update) has the option to turn of the shutter sound in the Settings.
seen not every variant has this option in setting.

The possibility to turn off or on is probably not in the apk itself. Turnng off systemsounds is likely the best option for now is my guess.

Actually it is not. In Korea there is no setting and no way to decrease the sound of the shutter due to the law. Not even by plugging in headphones or lowering volume. Unless the phone is rooted and in that case it's illegal. .......It's to help convince perverts not to take photos up girls skirts. If it is rooted though and this may work for all phones. It did for my Korean Note, S4, and S5. Go into system/media/audio/ui look for any files named shutter.ogg or similar there will be a couple, rename them adding .bak (ex. shutter.ogg.bak) so they are easy to find and fix if you have issues. Reboot and voila. Yo will have to do this each time you flash an update.

There is no way to remove burstshot sound though. Also even after editing CSC,at least on my galaxy s7 g930s this setting does not stick

Hmm. That doesn't sound promising. Seems like multi shutter ogg did it on the S4 & S5. I haven't rooted my new SM-G935K yet though. Only had it since the 10th, gotta wait foe the new to wear off.
If you have root there is an xposed module that will turn off the sound, I'm using it at the moment and works fine

This works! Im using FD version. Thanks
You can also use Silent Cam app on the Play Store. It works on the S7 - I have a 935FD too.
BTW I'm affiliated in any way shape or form with this app.

CameraMOD

Modded Camera Hal Lib to remove Motorola capability limitation.
With this lib dng raw capture is enabled
Copy it to System/lib/hw/ set permission rw-r-r
Install the newest freedcam build from here
https://github.com/troop/FreeDcam/releases
Does it have the green tint and camera crashing (in apps besides freed) problem that Bobby's mod did?

Nope this is different It uses camera1 api so regular apps work and no camera 2 bug. No reported bugs by the tester so far.
Doesn't work on ROMs from what it seems. I tired it on RR and Orion and resulted in a bootloop

Upload the camera.msm8992.so from those roms if its aosp/ cm based the file might be named camera.vendor or vendor.camera
the only thing i see is a liboemcamera.so . i'll upload it maybe this is it
nothing in my file search is picking up any vendor.camera or camera.vendor
View attachment liboemcamera.so.zip
This is coming from the TURBO ROM btw. idk if there's any difference. sorry im not good at this lol

Sorry the correct path is /system/lib/hw/ try the lib from OP my bad
This is the one that goes to /system/vendor/lib/ this is supposed to increase maximum exposure time in manual mode to 60sec.
Can probably mod it to add 60fps 1080p recording
Works wonders ! thank you
Cool App!

You mean manual iso the one you adjust via slider or the other one to the left of the ui?
For Exposure you mean exposure compensation or manual shutter speed ?.
It should be noted the regular iso does not update via live preview unless zsl is activated why I don't know it's a Qualcomm thing .

Sadly it didn't work on CM. I tried changing both "camera." and "camera.vendor." but neither file took and the camera apps would just show nothing or crash
