[Q] Note 2 N7100 Disabling Camera Sounds Completely - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I have renamed the following files in the /system/media/audio/ui directory :
auto_focus_error.ogg
auto_focus.ogg
cam_start.ogg
cam_stop.ogg
camera_click_short.ogg
camera_click.ogg
camera_empty.ogg
camera_focus.ogg
camera_timer.ogg
shutter_multiple.ogg
shutter.ogg
videorecord.ogg
to all with " *.ogg.off "
I have even moved all these files into a separate directory.
But I still hear the focus beep when the screen is touched and the burst mode sounds still appear. Is there anyway I can disable these, or should I resort to using a 3rd party camera app? (I have successfully muted the other sounds.)
Or are the said sound files in another directory or hard coded into the default camera app?
Thanks for any information.

Many custom roms have it. You might wanna try em.

I solved this by adding a line to my other.xml in System/csc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033894
Read most of the tread and remember to set the permissions right.

Thank you for the information!

I added the following code into the others.xml file :
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
and the option now appears in the settings menu.
And setting the Shutter sound off also seem to have removed the touch-to-focus feature's beep sound too.
Thanks again for all your help.

Awesome thanks. First easy fix I found

Custom Sounds on HTC Touch Pro2???

Is there a way to customize startup sounds or error sounds? I would like to change the sound of those, but can't seem to figure out how. Anyone help with that??
- Just copy any wma, mp3 or wav format file(s) into /windows/ directory.
- Select Settings/Sound/Advanced/Notifications
- Pick the Event you want and select the Ring tone from the drop-down menu
Enjoy~
Thats for the regular sounds....I am looking for a way to customize the STARTUP sound like when you turn the phone on and off and the error sounds. I appreciate the help but I am aware of how to change the regular sounds....just not sure if there is a way to change the start and error.

Jeez, i dont understand why they make it so complicated! Even WM 5.0 Smartphone edition was more fluent. I didnt have to move sound files all over the dam place just for specific events. Why in the hell cant it just let you Point to a file instead of stupidly being locked into one directly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is their a way to somehow change What directory its pointing to at least?
Guess i could just delete all the default sounds and put my own in their (if it will let me delete them)
Any Ideas? is their a way to have the sounds point to a custom location?
Again.. Can you change the pointed directory for event sounds out of the windows directory?
I've been lookin for the answer to this since my sprint mogul
I could be wrong but it sounds like you may need to look at flashing a custom splash screen. You can attach custom sounds to the splash screen to be whatever you want. I'm not to sure about the error sounds. I would assume you can associate an event to a sound file and call it a day.

Just tested this. It can change the general ring tone, but not for each person, and im not sure if i just dont know how to use it, but its realyl diffacult to goto other directory's to find new sounds.

Camera rustle sound

When I start the camera can hear the quiet rustle. It does not help:
-mute all options on the phone
-upload other applications to capture images
-delete ogg files from the system/media/
-change in the system configuration files like default.prop
Google have no more ideas.
I just installed android 2.2(155), if there is any answer please answear
I think it's the sound of the lens opening.. not sure if you can do anything about that.
I'm sure, because the modified roms have changed this sound. I need this for movement recording applications. It's a question of whether the cooks will share information which is the file?

Registry edits

First i want to thank Heathcliff74 for the root tools that the samsung focus to be able to access these parts of the registry and write to them, we were not able to reach or do before. Also want to thank Julien Schaps for the registry editor, and also his other apps. Also thanks to Reddragon93 for His advance explorer.
Thanks to XBOXMOD and others in his findings with parts of the registry edits and tweeks as those as well works for samsung.
I thought it would be nice to have a thread for samsung registry edits and how to. So everyone share your findings as you do or add one thats not here.
SMS SOUND TONES
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\SMS
and change the value data in sound:
value data: \My documents\My Ringtones\xxxxxx.wma
For those with NODO
select the ringtone in settings, rintones & sounds, that you want as SMS and goto HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\......Ringtone "0" folder and copy the value data, then go paste that into the value data for the sound for SMS. Then go back and select the phone ringtone for calls in settings that you want for phone ring.
If you dont have NODO just create the correct path in SMS sound \My Documents\My Ringtones\xxxxxx.wma
All edits are at your OWN risk.

These changes may impact the card stability issue but mine still remains stable. But i think in my experience it saves on battery and i also can tell a difference with the speed, i have no lag at all and seams to be a bit quicker!!

im using omnia7 but still the sms still not working everytime when i insert the path of the custome ringtone. and check the ringtone setting it will go back to NONE ....
Yes it will show none in the settings menu, but it changes the path that it selects for the SMS tone. Just send yourself a txt and you see. It will be possible for it to show up in UI maybe when file is able to be added to windws folder I think.

i did try to send my self a msg ..but still no luck ..well it look i have to wait untill we get full access to the windows directory ..
Make sure you have the path correct in SMS\ sound: Value: \My documents\My Ringtones\xxxxxx.wma if you are creating the value. It works i promise, try a reset after making the edit. Being able to have it in the windows folder will only allow it to show up in the list selection i do believe.

Those don't work for focus

Thanks for the nice tweaks.
Someone noticed the cxscreen (in local machine/drivers/display/primary) value is set to 640 ??
cyscreen is set to 480.
So shouldnt cxscreen value set to 800 ??
Maybe someone wants to try first xD

It is in the windows folder listed as mologo.file
I think i may have the HD video resolution to be able to set higher, but havent tried to play video on computer yet to see if its full screen....will try to do that tomorrow and see how it works.
Im curious Lucas , once we have file system access (Focus) , with the mologo file , would you be able to change the file completely or would you have have to use the name mologo (even with a different picture) ? I mean personally I dont even want the screen to show up , giving me a faster boot!

CSC edits

Hey just wanted to share a few of my preferences for the CSC file on TW Jb roms.I use root explorer for this. This file is under System/CSC/feature.xml, open the feature.xml file under the text editor function. The two values that will be used is true or false.Under camera shutter sound menu I make that true.This will give you a new option in camera to turn shutter sound on and off.I also go down to launcher and make tilt effect true.This will make the TW launcher have a new scroll effect.There are so many things you can change but these two are my fav.
Forgot to add after you make a change reboot for all applied to take effect.

[Q] Shutter camera OFF Tab S 8.4

How can turn off the sound of taking a picture? remove shutter file from the directory system/media/audio/UI and change of name does not work. the sound is still there.
edit
Have found the perfect solution. With this operation, the camera's menu appears an additional option on / off shutter
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:
Select 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).

Well I just went into settings and selected mute. I think that was the simplest option.
Then you have to mute all sounds. This modification allows you to regulate only the shutter sound.

In the same directory is the file "customer.xml". Look for the line
<Multimedia>
<Camera>
<ShutterSound>on</ShutterSound>
</Camera>
</Multimedia>
Simply set the sound to "off" and you're done.
