[MOD IDEA] Phone Turns Silence While Using Camera - HTC One X

Yesterday, while I was taking a video, a SMS came to my phone and screwed my video with notification tone! So I thought a mod which turns phone to silence while we're using camera would absolutely awesome. Can anyone make a mod like that?

Use tasker to set silent when camera app is launched, works for me

Q: Flashlight app?

i just got my G2 today, and i love it. but i was wondering if there's an app that allows me to use the LED for the camera as a flashlight? i'm not rooted and dont plan to be for awhile, but i was wondering if there's some app or some way to use the LED without opening the camera app.
Look at tesla in the market

I particularly am fond of the DEATH RAY flashlight built into cyanogenmod all you have to do is pull down your notification bar and hit the flash..and it will turn night into day. Its so bright it will blind someone if you direct it in their face.

Cyanogenmod comes with a handy Torch application
I have a original Torch app on my desire Z. European.. pre installed!!

G2 Strobe while ringing ???

Any dev on here ever considered modifying the TORCH app with the strobe to make the camera LED strobe on incoming call.. or flash every minute or so for a notofication??? Ive done this before with a .pat file for a z3 rizr, but not to familiar with doing something like this for android. Thoughts? Comments??

I think LEDmeknow might be the app that does the flashing on calls, I know I read about it a few months ago.
Tried that app. Kind of cool how it makes the main menu home button back button flash along with the trackpad -- but does NOT make camera LED flash. Thanks for pointing me in the direction of that app.

You are going to want this app: http://db.tt/9m8CqOS
I've been using it for my past 3 phones and it works perfectly on all of them. Including on this one both Froyo and Gingerbread.
NICE thanks you!!!

Missing features?

Maybe it's just me but I've noticed this phone doesn't have some basic feature like most “dumb phone" have. I can't seem to find a timer and I can figure out how to turn off shutter noise even if I put the phone in vibrate or silent mode. I know you can download a timer from market but would of been nice to include in the phone.

Simply use the volume rocker when the camera is open to silence the shutter.

The whole point of Android is to customise how you want it. That's why it more or less comes with all of Google's apps and no other apps (by it I mean Google's phones).
Yea. Android has never had a timer by default.

/system/media/audio/ui/
camera_click.ogg
camera_focus.ogg
delete/rename those two and it'll remove focus & shutter sound. CM7 had the feature to disable shutter sound, should expect it in CM9.

Nfc task launcher and changing notification sounds

I am trying to setup a tag in my car to change the notification sounds to silent so my wife doesn't ask "what was that" every time I get an email and it isn't working. Has anyone been successful in using nfc task launcher to do this? I this is on a HTC One x. I tried to turn the volume down but the ringer and notification sounds are linked. Please help

Does setting it to silent not work? Ill check on a one x tonight.

Edit: Grabbed a one X and gave it a shot. HTC makes default and silent the same thing >.> so when you set silent it selects default. I'll dive in tomorrow and get it sorted. Thanks HTC for another oddball implementation...
I even downloaded a silent tone from zedge and it still doesn't work
Edit: I just checked again with one of the other tones and it worked but with the tone named silence didn't work. The one that did work wa an HTC preinstalled tone though so maybe it won't work with non HTC tones I don't know.

Interestingly on my One X I can't even manually set it to silent for notification tone. Normally this would correlate to -1 as the media store position. Can you manually set the tone to slient on your one x?

The only way is to use a silent ring tone from somewhere like zedge. The volume for ringer and notification sounds are linked.

There is a "silent" option in the sound picker for AOSP devices. This is non functional though on HTC devices it seems (which is unfortunate).

Restart the phone. A fresh run solves most of the problems that just popping out of nowhere.
If it doesn't help try to clear data and cache of the Camera App in the app manager.
Nothing seems to be helping. Now as soon as I switch to video recording mode the camera app shuts off. I've installed Camera ICS app from play store but the problem remains there. What can be the problem?
