i'm very unhappy with pixel camera shutter sound if there is any way please help
Launching the camera app, you will see at the top a cog icon for settings. Tap that, then below the basic settings, you will see a button called "More settings" and tap that. The 2nd option on the Camera settings screen is "Camera sounds". Toggle that to off. That disables the shutter sound.
Hope that helps.

Hello, is there a way to turn off the shutter sound of this device without rooting? Thanks.
Its in the camera app's settings.
Launch camera app, press the gear icon, press the gear icon again, scroll down and you'll find the shutter sound option.

If it doesn't disable when you turn off the sound itself, your firmware has the setting disabled. Several countries ( Amongst which the Netherlands) have Privacy laws which state that it is illegal to take a photograph without a shutter sound.
So in the Dutch version, there's no way to disable it short of rooting and deleting shutter.ogg. In the German firmware, turning the device olume to vibrate or off disables the shutter sound.
If you're rooted, just delete shutter.ogg.

Only in a few countries. None of the EU variants have that setting.
Good to know!
Sometimes, during the day, I set my Phone with Android 7.1.1 to Do Not Disturb mode. However there are some notifications that I don't wanna miss, and I mean that I also want to hear the notification or alarm sound.
So I went into Settings > Applications and for my important apps (Reminder [1] and Whatsapp) I went in notification settings and I enable "override do not disturb" for both apps; furthermore I disabled these apps from battery optimization.
Well: despite the fact that I set these apps to "override do not disturb", when these apps receive/display a notification with a certain sound when DND is active, I only can see them with the LED and I can't hear any sound (but the notification is however displayed also on the lock screen).
So is a matter of no sound played. All is ok when DND is not active.
I miss something or is a know bug?

Sorry for the noise: I reply to myself, since I found the solution (imho very hidden).
On the DND icon in the bar menu i double clicked and some options appeared: I choosed "Priority only", so the apps which are set to "override do not disturb" now are able to play a sound when the phone is set to DND.
I hope that this solution could be useful to someone.
Minor annoyance but hoping someone can help. When I set my alarm I get a clicking/scrolling sound when I scroll through the clock to set the time. I've gone through all my settings, including developer options, and can't find any way to turn it off. All of my keyboard and other annoying touch sounds/vibrations are off but for some reason the click scroll sound still survives. Am I missing something here? I'm tempted to get a new alarm app just so I don't have to deal with it anymore. The sound I'm talking about happens in the "edit alarm" screen. Thanks!
That sound is default, and can't be turned off, unfortunately. I had that sound on the P10 Lite as well.

So I recently bought a Black Shark 4, and I use Google Assistant a lot.
I did the Accessibility Switch thing to bring it back, and it works.
But now, whenever I have a Youtube video and go to check/change settings, I have to tap an "X" to exit the overlay.

Is there a way to have the Google Assistant beep, without having that in Youtube?
Device Settings Menu Guide, Tips & Discussions
Part 2 - Sounds and vibration, Notifications, Wallpaper and Themes
If you're new to this series or want to see the index, please read the Introductory Post first.
Sound and vibration
Sound Mode: Choose from Sound, Vibrate and Mute. If you choose Mute, you can now choose to "Temporary Mute" for custom time.
Vibrate while ringing: I have enabled it as in environments where the ringtone is not loud enough, vibrations in my pocket help me.
Ringtone: Set Ringtone for each of your SIMs. Tap Add to add music from your storage. Select 'Highlights only' to play only a specified part of the track and not necessarily from the beginning. This way you can make ringtones from the music track itself but anyways here are the best ringtones sites. The existing catalogue in the device has few nature-inspired tones - I've set it to 'Friday'.
Notification sounds: You can set a customized notification for each app in app's settings itself so set this one as a default notification - something short that won't annoy you. My choice is 'Twinkle'.
Volume:
Play with them to find what suits you. In my case, System (touch sounds, back button sounds, etc.) is zero while notifications are on the lowest side. You can still control them by pressing the volume rocker and then expanding the pop-up.
Use Volume keys for media: I never wanted to control ringtone with volume rockers. Must be enabled!
Menu > Media Volume Limit: You can set a lower upper limit for your audio devices. Also, you can increase the OEM limit to force devices with more volume - can be very helpful with low volume calls or media. I know how to control, so set to highest - the volume bar will also show you the danger zone while increasing.
Call/Notification Vibration Pattern: Specifies vibration pattern for your Calls. Choose a call pattern to something by which you can easily differentiate your calls from a standard notification form the initial vibration itself. I've set it to 'Off-beat'. You now have the option to sync with ringtone or notifications (need to try)!
Vibration Intensity: If you get annoyed, like I do, by vibrations for every notification, set it to zero or alternatively set it to a lower level while tweaking individual app notification settings to allow/disallow vibrations. 'Touch interaction' is for on-screen touches. Set "Vibration sound for incoming calls" to get the humming-before-sound effect and also not to annoy yourself or partner with call ringtones when you can pick the call before it sounds!
System sounds and vibration: Touch sounds (sound/vibration), Screen lock sounds (sound), Charging sounds (sound/vibration), Dialling keypad tones (sound/vibration), Samsung Keyboard (sound/vibration), Navigation gestures (vibration), Camera feedback (vibration).
Sound quality and effects, Separate app sound:
Dolby Atmos: Read about it here. I've set it to Auto. You can easily toggle modes from the notification bar itself (move it to the first page). Enable "Dolby Atmos for gaming" and enjoy gaming!
Equaliser: Play with it to decide what's best for you. Here is an Equaliser guide for you so that you can play with the Advanced mode as well.
UHQ upscaler: Connect earphone to enable this. Bit-upscaling works best for me. Read a pro analysis on UHQ upscaling modes here.
[Discontinued] Tube Amp Pro; Concert hall: They are disabled when using Dolby Atmos. I prefer Dolby Atmos over either of them.
Adapt Sound: Do try it! Add trying a new profile for each of your earphones or audio device and personalise sound. You can try existing profiles and toggling Clear or Soft sound preferences.
Separate app sound: Useful in cases where you don't want an app's sound to play on your default audio device. I have set 'App' to Chome/Facebook and Audio device to 'Phone' so that they don't accidentally play on the connected device in case Bluetooth is left on. You can also choose 'YouTube Music' as App and Audio device to 'Bluetooth' so that music always play on the connected device.
Notifications
Notification pop-up style: To be filled.
Do not disturb: You can schedule it though I recommend Tasker or IFTTT for control it. Now that you have set apps to control DND, set "For how long" to "Ask every time" so whenever you need to set DND, you select the time. If you want to turn it off manually or know the average time, choose otherwise. Do explore Exceptions to enable 'Repeat callers', allowing calls/messages from a specific group, allowing event/task/reminders. Customize DND so that your 3rd-party (scheduling) apps when enabling it enables your customized settings. You can add 'Apps' to exception so that you don't miss notifications from, for example, Mail. You can choose 'Hide Notifications' to choose what notifications to show. For example, you don't want Apps to sound but want to see the icon badges when you turn on the screen.
Recently Sent/App Notifications: You can customize each App's notification here itself or can do this simply in that App's settings. I prefer customizing App settings when they arrive in the notification bar by holding the notification and tapping settings. This way, in some time, you'll make your app notifications fully customized for all of those that bother you. With Pie, you have now greater control of each app's notification. You can even customize notification subcategories of a particular app. Do check 'silent and minimized' mode that doesn't create a mess in your notification panel as well as minimizes the content by default with no sound. Do you need a separate guide to master this? Do tell. You can also refer to a good article here.
Advanced:
Show notifications icons: It is set to recent 3 by default. If you get a lot of notifications like me, you will miss seeing notification icons (recency doesn't equal importance).
Show battery percentage: Since I usually get a lot of notifications, I've disabled 'Show recent notifications only'. It's not a bad idea to get the actual percentage of battery level so enable 'Show battery percentage'.
Notification history: Finally! You get the swiped or snoozed notifications here. Saves me after accidentally hitting "Clear All". MUST ENABLE!
Conversations: Now you can control notifications from individual SMS senders!
Switch on 'Suggest actions and replies for notifications' and 'Show snooze button' if helps.
Notification Reminders: If you want to give attention to notifications from selected apps, you can get reminded frequently (with vibrations) until you clear them. Helps me not to miss Missed Calls or Fiverr messages.
App icon badges: Useful though I use a similar feature 'Notification badges' in Nova Launcher.
Wireless Emergency Alerts: MUST ENABLE! Alerts given by government or organizations about life hazards and likewise. I have enabled everything even test messages!
Wallpaper and style
My Wallpapers: You can choose Wallpapers for the Lock Screen and Home Screen here. Now you can set Video Wallpapers for Lock Screen too. I use Tapet to change wallpapers and Tasker to add new wallpapers to it.
Lock screen wallpaper services: I have chosen 'Dynamic Lock Screen' to change Lock Screen Wallpapers from the 5 categories which add new wallpapers every 2 weeks. 'Samsung Global Goals' is a views-oriented donation theme.
Colour palette: This came with Material You. Colour of buttons, app icons (if 'Apply palette to app icons' is enabled) and other icons will match your wallpaper theme!
Apply Dark mode to wallpaper: Darkens your wallpapers to give less strain on the eye and comply with the dark mode actually!
Themes
It will route you to Samsung Themes. I use a separate icon and theme packs for Nova Launcher. I do use AOD packs from the Themes. Do explore this section on XDA itself. I'm going to develop some themes (preferably AOD skins) soon and will let you know. Learn how to develop yours here.
