[Q] Reboot Sound

Hello,
After the recent update: Sense 3.0, android 2.3.5, everytime I reboot my mobile it makes alot of sound, how do I turn this off?
I can't find any option to stop the sound even though my 'soundprofile' is on vibrate..
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Normally my phone only vibrated when I rebooted, now it first vibrates, then it makes a startup-sound.
I am sure it has to do something with the new update, since it never was there..

Sry I should have been more clear! You need root access and probably S-OFF and then a file manager.

Nvm i figured out that i could go 'up' and explore all maps in stead of just my sdcart. Now the problem is that i dont see any audio which is named 'reboot/start up' anythig like that. Its all ui-sound (lock screen, unlock,cam, etc..)

you'll need to be rooted, and use an app like Root Explorer, or any app that has a file manager that can access system level. go to System>App> and find two files, one is SamsungCamera.API and SamsungCamera.odex either change the name of both of these files (eg: SamsungCameraOLD.API and. odex) or delete them, either way SamsungCamera.API and SamsungCamera.odex should not exist anymore. now that you've done that, use that root file manger to place his hacked SamsungCamera.apk and place it in the same folder (System>App>). then restart your phone.
note* you may need to mount your R/W card, you can simply do that by the giant button at the top of Root Explorer.

Thank you! I figured it would need to be dropped in somewhere just didn't know the right location for it. :good:
EDIT: now that I got in there and looked the only file I have is SamsungCamera.apk. Now showing any .API or .odex files?

If you're on a deodexed rom, then you won't have those files. Just reboot after dropping the apk in there, make sure your permissions are correct, and you'll be good to go.

What are the correct permissions? I tried flashing the zip through CWM but no go. I'm on a deodexed Rom also tried dropping the Samungcamera.apk file into system/app...
Thanks

I hear there was a camera mod that made shooting videos a much higher quality but it only worked for the international version of the GSlll. Perhaps doing it for this would be possible at a later date?

I am actually working on the higher bit-rates also. I have a few versions right now, in testing, the only issue I am running into right now is that when you use the power button for the shutter, it also triggers the power menu. It still takes the picture and all, but its an annoyance.

Has the video recorder always had that click-click sound whenever the ringer volume is on?? That's really annoying. I thought shutter sound in the camera controlled both.

CWM and TWRP installs are interchangeable in most, if not all cases. Definitely when you're talking about a simple script like this one.

I saw that the codename android ROM (i know the its a different ROM build but maybe he has some ideas) has a the power button as the shutter already. Maybe you can ask the OP if he could advise you on the issue you are having.
Here is the link to the ROM.

[MOD] Quick and Dirty: Enable Tether.

Attached is a quick an' dirty mod to enable tethering on our devices. This mod bypasses the tethering provision check of the stock tethering application. This can probably be done better in the Settings APK, but this was definitely the easier method.
This was built off of MDL, but should work with pretty much any version of the Stock TW firmware.
Simply replace this file in /system/app in your deodexed rom, set perms to rw- r-- r-- (644) and ensure that SELinux is set to permissive.
Go here for a flashable zip version: CLICK thanks to dragon-son for being 100% less lazy about making one.
*EDIT*
This has just been confirmed as working on odexed roms as well. Simply remove/rename the TetheringProvision.odex file, and clear Dalvik cache.

Thanks. How do I change the permissions? I mean the se linux part.

He wasn't asking how to fix permissions, but how to ensure that SELinux is set to permissive.

You can read more here:
http://selinuxproject.org/page/SEAndroid
In most cases, selinux will be set to permissive by default. If you are running a custom deodexed rom, it will most likely already have been disabled for you (if it was ever enabled). You can check this in the settings application under "About Device."

Camera mods (Unlimited recording)

MUST BE ROOTED WITH FREEZAS ROOT
CHANGELOG
V1 (Aug 25)- Allows for recording up until you run out of space instead of putting a time limit on everything
backup the entire folder system/priv-app/samsungcamera6 , delete the apk, then copy this over to system/priv-app/Samsungcamera6
Download at bottom of this post
After that set the permissions (id recommend checking the original apks permissions before u delete it)
Reboot, (see if the app even shows up), then try recording 4k, it's around 21 minute record time with stock internal storage, with the 256GB sdcard it should be much more
