I love this phone.
But, I can't turn the camera shutter sound off.
I have seen the following solutions:
Edit build.prop and set the camera sound value to =0
or
Use Camera Zoom Fx app and delete the camera_click.ogg file
I would prefer to do the former.
I guess I need to root my phone to do this - or is there an easier way?
I have never rooted a phone and I don't have a need for a rooted phone other than to be able to r/w the build.prop file.
Can I root it, edit the build.prop file, and then unroot it and have the build.prop file keep my edits?
Does anyone have any straightforward steps on how to root and then unroot this phone?
Thank you for any guidance you can provide!

I believe that you can unroot directly from the superuser app that is sideloaded via this rooting method. Once unrooted, the changes that you made should remain. If they don't for some reason, all you have to do is keep root and just deny apps that request superuser access.

You would need to root it to edit the build.prop, as it is located in system. That other way to unroot might work to keep it but if you use lgnpst it would replace all the system files, giving you your stock build.prop again. If you wanted to delete the ogg file you would still need to root for that. At least on my phone the camera_click.ogg file is located it /system/media/audio/ui directory. You could just move it somewhere else as a backup. But....being rooted is awesome

I think (once rooted) is safest to just overwrite the click sound(s) with a silent one. Then it plays but you can't hear it. works for me and any camera proggy that defaults to the system will use it too.

On the LGoG it's in: system > media > audio > ui > camera_click.ogg
It may be in a different location on other devices.
You have to be rooted in order to write over system files, but I just renamed the original to camera_click.ogg.bak and then copied the silent version in with the same original name "camera_click.ogg" less the quotes and making sure it's an ogg file too, so there is no system playback error.
Hope that helps.

I assume it's the LGoG you are attempting this with?
Mine is the first generation (incase there are other generations.)
You'll also want to verify it was overwritten. I'd try playing the sound once you do... just to be sure it's the write file.
Otherwise, you might search your device for the sound and see if it's listed elsewhere.
In case the program you are using does not have "system" write capability, I might suggest ES File Explorer.
Either way, you will have to access the settings to turn on the ability to "write" to root in order to "overwrite the file".
Additionally (if the file is changing back - or so it would seem)... be sure to check the permissions it has before you overwrite it and when you do (assuming success).. make sure to set the "new" files permissions to the same as what the old file had. Else, the OS might overwrite the "new" file with a tared (backed up) version... knowing that it's been screwed with.
It's kind of a form of protection from corruption (computer sees potentially bad file and replaces it with good file.)
Good luck and happy fourth!
Phantom camera_click.ogg
I beg your forgiveness for my ignorance, but I've never done much tweaking to file systems after a rooting... but my gf has the Sprint Optimus G and can't find the camera_click.ogg file at all using Astro File Explorer. Does anyone know any other location it may be at? As a computer technician, I'm embarrassed at my lack of know-how around the Droid OS!
Not sure if you looked at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2051384
Read the op then go to page 11 and you see there are 2 fields that need to be changed.
After you do that and reboot as it states, you will have sound when you have your volume on and no camera sound when you turn the volume down to vibrate or silent. At least that is how it is for me. I prefer it that way.
Hope this helps

Per Murphy's law, after she and I both looked for around 30 min before giving up and me posting on the forums, I downloaded the ES file explorer and found both files within seconds.
Got it with the silent camera while the phone is on silent/vibrate. Now for a little tweaking to silence it with the volume up.

I had started a thread asking for help on how to do this. So since its pretty much confirmed it works on most phones even when you didnt realize it was installed Ifigured it was time to give it a proper [How-To].
Disclaimer:I am not responsible if you break,brick,hump,throw against wall or any other action you do to your phone. By using this script you agree anything that happens is your own noobtastic fault. Any attempts at blaming me for anything other than this being fantastic will result in you being pointed and laughed at.
If you are using BACKSIDE/IHO or have already installed the script dont I REPEAT DONT run the script again. Doing so makes multiple instances of the commands and will stop the bootsound from playing. If you run the script more than once you will have to delete somethings to get it to work. SO be warned DO NOT RUN THE SCRIPT IF YOU HAVE ALREADY OR ARE USING BACKSIDEIHO ROM
The ability to play boot sounds is not activated in CM7 based roms. You have to run a script that will enable this function on CM7 based roms. I remember somebody posting this a short while back but it wouldnt work for me. Apparently the sound file I was using was not named properly.
I found a tutorial on CMforums about how to do this. Tested it and everything works great. Several people have tried this on Froyo roms and not have it work. Also it appears on some phones it just wont work at all.
This is what you do.
1. Download this shell script here bootsnd.sh
2. Place it on the root of your SD card & then open Terminal & type the following
su
cd /sdcard
sh bootsnd.sh
3. Now by using a file manager program with R/W (Read/Write) go to the /system/bin in your phone & make sure the file has transfered over! It should say BOOTSOUND & have permissions set to rwxrwxrwx! for this I use Root Explorer or you can use File Manager once you have selected R/W
4. Before transferring your sound file over rename it on your pc, android_audio and make sure it is a .mp3 file. Transfer the sound file from your pc to the root of your SDcard. Now move your sound file you want to play when the phone boots to /system/media of your phone & rename it android_audio you will have to be in R/W mode! Typically fifteen seconds is plenty long and just perfect, however anything over 30 seconds will get cut off.
5. Reboot & enjoy your new BOOTSOUND B)
I dont take credit for this and I am just adding the info here, if you wanna give thanks make sure you go here as well & say thanks to Colpophage for his help on this topic - say thanks here

If your having trouble getting sounds to play this should fix the problem.

Make sure you are mounting in R/W mode on each of these steps.

Delete it from the build.prop and save and exit.
This is optional but recommened.
Reboot phone.
Verify no sound is playing.
Now run the script again and reboot.
You should have a boot sound again.

if you're using a froyo rom, it's a simpler and different method to get the boot sound.
you need the .mp3 saved as
/system/sounds/poweron/PowerOn.mp3
that's all.
if it still doesn't work, try re-encoding the mp3, or use a different one. sometimes the system's picky about which mp3s it'll use for a bootsound.

If you are using a CM7 based ROM, here's a flashable zip file you can use:
Activate-Bootsound-signed.zip
Boot into recovery and flash after flashing any CM7 based ROM.
Note- If you have made changes to the files mentioned by eollie, you must remove your changes before flashing this.
Thanks Jerry. out of curiosity, is there a size or time limit for these boot sounds? i was thinking of adding the very opening of "Zoo Station" by U2.
I dunno about cm7, but I put a 40 second mp3 as the bootsound in froyo, and it played all the way past when the sd card mounted on the home screen.
The most I've been able to play is about 90 seconds, larger files didn't even play for me.

Remember some Rom cookers have supercharged the boot process. So the best thing to do is use a timer and time how long you have from the flash from the second bootanimation to when the phone does the soft vibirate to let you know its loaded.
is there any way to use a sound for when the phone powers off also

Please remove the paid app from your post. It is against the rules. Plus there is a zip created by jerryscript that does this.

But still no sound - using android_audio.mp3 - which is valid !!!
Was able change bootanimation.
Something I'm missing or just not possible in this rom ?
Thanks or any advise
I couldn't get the script to work for me either, but the manual method did work for me. The file I had was an ogg, so I edited that part of the bootsound file and the off plays.
Sorry, I don't know why yours doesn't work. Did you make sure your bootsound file has no extension?

Make sure you rename your stock UI sounds (Example: *tick_effect) before you over-right them.

What seems to be the prob? Just download the zip to your sdcard, unzip it, open root explorer, copy and paste the apk's you want to install and copy and paste them in: Root/System/app
Should be it. *might have to install it and or change permissions*
Awesome! I had to turn off the touch clicks and, since I hate haptic feedback, it's nice to be able to regain some response in the phone's UI.
Thanks.
If you want to further customize your UI to resemble WP7 here is the font.
Should be able to just install the apk and go to settings display and set font.http://db.tt/Wmgm3nST

Use root explorer, make the directory r/w, copy the sounds into system / media / audio / ui folder.... You will (or should be if you are doing it right) be overwriting pre existing files. Once done and you have overwritten the sounds you wanted to change, reboot phone.
You may need to rename the file if you want it represent/be used for another function. For example, inside the zip file there is a file names backspace.ogg..... Say you want to use it for the TW_touch.ogg sound.... You will need to rename it and all that. Only problem is by the time you cuztomize things to the way you like, a new updated rom is put out and you have to do it again!

Use Root Explorer, other file managers won't have permission to change system files. With Root Explorer you will also need to select Mount R/W to be able to write to the system folder.
Make sure you rename all the original files if you ever want to use the original sounds again...I just went back to AOSP lock/unlock sounds, the WP7 sound was a bit sharp.

I assure you, you wont brick your device from just renaming a sound file. I do it all the time. Maybe its for when you try and rename a needed framework or system file.

You'll need a root-capable file explorer. Some use Root Explorer, I like Solid Explorer Beta.
File are located in system\media\audio\ui\
Lock.ogg
Unlock.ogg
And you can kill camera_click.ogg and camera_focus.ogg while you're there!
Probably have to reboot once you replace the files. They will also be overwritten every time you flash a nightly / new build.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if there was a way to change the S-pen pull out noise to a custom tone? I have the Tmo version and there is only 3 that I can choose from. Thanks in advance.
You should be able to replace the stock sounds with new files of the same names. Unsure of their exact location as I've not looked into it, but it'd stand to reason that they'd be in /system/media/ui somewhere.

Couple of questions for you...
1. Are you rooted?
2. Are you using Root Explorer or ES File Explorer?
If your using ES, you need to be sure it has root access and has the "system" folder "mounted" for writing (both in settings of ES). Also, it's not the files you downloaded that you rename, it's the original files in the /system/media/audio/ui folder you rename to .bak, then copy and paste the new ones in.

Hi
Thank you for your reply. I have my phone rooted. I tried ES. i can not highlight the Mount file system option in the root settings. Also when i click Root explorer, i get the msg that this feature can not run on my phone. I also tried the other app Explorer. When i try to change the name of the original file. i get the msg this is a read only file. So how do i proceed.thank you
Since we now have the LK8 leak, and no custom Roms, yet. I've seen the "how do I disable camera sounds" question asked a few times.
I'm sure your favorite developer will incorporate this feature, like they have in the past, as they update to the new base. This is mainly for us impatient noobs
You must be rooted. Using a root explorer, navigate to /system. Select build.prop. Scroll until you find this line:
# Camera sound play enforced for SPR
ro.camera.sound.forced=1
and change to:
# Camera sound play enforced for SPR
ro.camera.sound.forced=0
If you also want to be able to toggle the sound in the camera menu, navigate to /system/csc, and select feature.xml.
Scroll to the "Camera" section, and change this line from this:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
to this:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Save, exit,
Make sure permissions are set to: rw-r--r--,
and reboot.
yes happend
Man, I must be doing something wrong.
I used ES file explorer to make the changes and rebooted twice but the sound is still there and the menu doesn't show the camera option either...
I am trying my hand at this instead of the apk I found.

Make sure ES has root permission, and also make sure you are saving the updated file, before exiting. I'll try to do it from ES File explorer, in a little while, to see if I can make it work.
Okay, I was able to follow this procedure, with ES File Explorer, also. I just made sure all of the "root" boxes were checked in settings.
Thanks for the help.
I confirmed the setting and everything where correct after a reboot, I wonder if installing that camera app to silence the sounds did something...

Not sure, but I do know people reported that the app from that other post, killed Spen, and lock screen sounds, too.
Using Root Explorer, when I try to tap on "build.prop" nothing happens.
There is a tiny yellow icon in the shape of a shield with a star on it on that line. What does that mean? Why won't it let me go in?
Thank You OP for the instructions. It worked.
I used RomToolbox Pro toget it done.
