Silent camera - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Is there one that works with md4?
I'm talking about the stock md4 can just silenced

I remember there being a trick just to browse around with root explorer in the system folder and find the respective shutter sound files and delete them. Not sure if it still works or if its still safe but I remember doing it on my epic touch without incident.

Yeah. Just navigate to system/media/sounds/ui and find shutter.ogg. rename to shutter.oggbak and reboot. You can always rename it back to gain sound.

Questions go in Q&A, you know that.
You can turn on the toggle by navigating to /system/csc/feature.xml and setting the "false" to true like in the selected text in my picture. Then reboot.
Afterwards you'll get a toggle for it like in my second attachment.

Yep. That's what I've been using. Sometimes you may want the shutter sound. Sprint just disabled the setting by default.

Yes. Edit the xml on your PC with something like notepad++ otherwise you'll have issues jf you edit it on the phone. Trust me it'll bork the longpress symbols on the stock keyboard and features will only half activate.

Or you can always pull the camera from a rom like TPR which has a model MD4 camera with shutter sound toggle option.

While the CSC hack works for the stock camera, 3rd party cameras like instagram will still have sound. I did the CSC hack for my g/f on her E4GT, and instagram still had sound, so it was pretty annoying for her.
Even though it's overkill, I do both the CSC hack and modify the files just because.

Ah, but I never guaranteed anything for 3rd party apps...and the same may not be true for the E4GT as it is for the S3. For example, I know that if you enable 360 degrees rotation on the E4GT in the framework-res and do the same on the S3, the home screen will not rotate on the S3 while it does on its predecessor. So I wouldn't necessarily correlate it not working on the E4GT to it not working on the S3 unless you're tried it yourself. Personally, I have no need for 3rd party apps that use camera so I simply enable the toggle.

Stock keyboard all the secondary symbols for long press vanish from the main keyboard, still work if you press the sym key. And certain features either don't fully enable or disable depending on which you're doing. For example the messaging options will enable but are greyed out when edited on the phone but work fine when edited via PC. For some reason CSC files don't like being edited on the phone.

anyway to get the original csc file back to fix the keyboard then re edit on the PC?
Edit: Standby, I found the original file I had backed up, transferred it to my PC, edited it there and copying it back to the phone, but that didn't fix it. I guess once it's broke, it's broke. Probably not worth worrying over tho.

Pull it from the rom zip using 7zip. I always name the original feature.bak and leave it in the csc folder, theres also a secondary copy in the SPR/csc folder inside CSC as well.

Once you push it back you'll need to reboot as well. Usually if I break something using feature I restore the original then reboot, then push back a modified version and reboot again. You need to use the unmodified one to fix the crap that breaks when editing on the phone before trying to remodify it.

I know you didn't guarantee anything for 3rd party apps. That's mainly why I put in my 2 cents, because I have used the toggle by itself and it doesn't work on third party apps (tried it on both the E4GT and the GS3).
I know it's all personal preference, but I'm just stating to the OP what each method implies. If he's satisfied with using the CSC hack, all the better for him since it's all one, easy step instead of modifying a bunch of files. :good:

I know, and I'm just saying that because it doesn't work on the E4GT in all scenarios, doesn't mean that it won't work on the S3 in all scenarios

You also have to change the forced shutter sound from 1 to 0 in build.prop for the toggle to fully function properly.

Camera on EI22

the native Samsung camera app on EI22 does not give the option to have no sound for the shutter. they offer three annoying options. does anyone have the old camera app anywhere? updating the firmware seemed to go nowhere.

In some states they have made it against the law to actually turn off the shutter sound. That's probably why there is no longer an option. The MIUI camera has a shutter off option and so does the CM7 camera but the CM7 camera wont work with EI22 ROMS, I tried it. MIUI does though
There's a quick fix by editing the Camera app preference xml file. I imagine that adding the option back into the menu wouldn't be terribly difficult, and probably better than switching apks entirely. But I don't have time to do that right now.

Can you site or link to the state laws in question?
I was unaware of such laws in the states. To my knowledge, the sounds were baked back in because these phones are also in Korea? The origin of Samsung, which in their country, its illegal to have no shutter, therefore, its in the camera.apk's universal app for that sole reason. I don't have a dog in this fight and I'm no lawyer either, lol. Just sharing what I know. And if there are some states who forbid it to where it was turned into a law, then you've enlightened me my friend.

I tried editing the xml file as you suggested but it doesn't seem to stick on EI22 ERA v4.0.1. Yes, I made sure Camera app was completely killed before editing and saving. No dice...

Same ROM here, same result. Edited the .xml file as suggested by wtogami and it didn't stick. Actually, reverted to "Sound 1". Not a huge deal, I just find the camera sound annoying.
I just flashed this. It works perfect on EI22 roms.
Installed and can confirm that this fix works and sticks on EI22.
Had google framework force closes, but a three finger permission fix solved it.

[HOWTO]Get Nature Sounds like SGS3 on SGW

Want to get SGS3 touch tones, water unlock and lock sounds, and make the menu and back buttons have a water like effect like the SGS3??
Well you came to the right place, here I am going to teach you how to get those with a simple tut, read on:
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible if your phone get bricked, bootlooped, unable to start etc. You take the risk to provide this modifications to your phone. Remember that you are messing with the system root partition, one small mistake might get you into serious trouble, sometimes unfix-a-ble. 99.99% success rate so proceed at your own risk. Remember to do a nandroid backup through CWM or backup the sound files if you do not want the sounds anymore, avoid losing your data if you made a mistake or find the water sounds too annoying .
:: REQUIREMENTS ::
a rooted Galaxy W
Solid Explorer, Root Explorer, ES File Manager or any that can have access to the system files
a computer to download the sound files
patience:angel:
:: LET"S GET STARTED ::
Download the files provided below and transfer them to the root of your SD card
Open up your file explorer(in this case Solid Explorer for me)
Click "Jump", "Device", "System root"
Scroll down untill you see the system folder
Select the folder and then locate the media folder inside and later select it
Select "audio" then "ui"
Backup the sound files in your system by COPYING "Lock.ogg","S_HW_Touch.ogg","TW_Touch.ogg","TW_Unlock_Glass.ogg" into your SD Card and then deleting them accordingly
Locate where you put the downloaded sounds and then copy and paste them into the same place which is system/media/audio/ui
Exit Solid Explorer and do a REBOOT(recommended)
Enjoy the sound of the SGS3
:: DOWNLOADS ::
Lock.ogg: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?aue7ouj4wsjiixh
S_HW_Touch.ogg: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?bj9me3e8ygzqdhi
TW_Touch.ogg: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?3fji29354cd4n2z
Update:
Special thanks to @yihao96 for finding a workaround for the sounds to be possible in cm9:
For cm9 user,
Download Lock.ogg and put in /system/media/audio/ui to replace the lock screen sound.
For unlock screen sound, rename Lock.ogg to Unlock.ogg and replace it in the same folder.
Download S_HW_Touch.ogg and rename it to Effect_Tick.ogg then replace the Effect_Tick.ogg in the same folder.

Hello,
thanks you very much but
1.TW_Unlock_G"r"ass.ogg must be rename to TW_Unlock_G"l"ass
2.DL for TW_Touch.ogg ist the same file as S_HW_Touch.ogg (fix it)
3. The first both files are the same as the both TW files.Maybe is that right
Thanks.
Best regards
AsmirGT
Edit:
What are the both files
Lock.ogg and TW_Unlock_Glass.ogg for.
After replace all 4 files there is the difference only when i touch the screen ....
I use Stock Lock screen no Go locker or something else is it just cause that?
well firstly i thank you for telling me about renaming the 'r' to 'l' my mistake for it.will also fix the links. the lock .ogg file is for the lock sound when you lock the phone and the tw glass .ogg is for the water like effect sound. if you dont want it, just put back the original sound clip that you backup into the location again. is it working for you?

when i lock screen there is no sound i mean before was the same
i use stock locker from rebel rom with ibanez7 theme 3.9

i don't wand to back up the original one
Unlock Samurai X:laugh:
Thanks! Works awfully well to me. I used Widgetlocker and I heard a strange voice for the lock & unlocking voice, but it's too small to hear. So I disabled it for a while and tested using stock lockscreen and it works perfectly fine.
I really love the water unlocking and lock sounds but I don't think I'm a big fan of the new hard keys sound. Just my opinion. XD

sorry my friend. but ics has a different sound layout as in gb touchwiz. i'm not that familiar with the system layout for cm9 so i guess none of those sounds work for it. however, there is one which is the Lock.ogg sound which MAY be able to changed as cm9 has that sound, so i will say if u are taking a risk against it, always make sure u have a backup either the sounds or a nandroid. hope this helps and i wish someone would prove me wrong on this.
here's what u gonna do:
1. download that Lock.ogg file and transfer it to your phone.
2. have a backup of the stock "Lock.ogg" in cm9 or have a nandroid backup ready just in case.
3. replace the downloaded "Lock.ogg" in the system/media/ui place and reboot.
hoping it would work to prove me wrong.remeber to do a backup(i may sound a lil pesky here because of me keep on urging you to do a backup but believe me its for the best for you, though ur phone wont get bricked for changing sound files.

After this I wanted to confirm for myself( just a curiosity thing ) and found something very intresting. I removed each file 1 at a time and rebooted, only to find out that the sound was still there. Could my RootExplorer be going wacky ? Or could those files have nothing to do with the lock sound ?

Don't delete them. Just rename to Effect_Tick.ogg.off. it works for me for getting rid of the camera sounds. But I know for sure that effect tick is the touch sounds. I've made a couple themes for myself.

Make sure that your file explorer is setting the /system folder as writable. Even if you have access to root folder of your phone, the /system folder is usually read only. Goes without saying you need root access to your device.
OK I think OP means TAP on the screen. Click on to me meant turning the screen on and off. There are two ways, untick the box or rename the file.

This post intrigued me so I tried it myself... I wanted to change the obnoxious "boop" to the tick from an aosp JB ROM and I found that All 3 of these files must be changed or else you'll still get that dang "boop":
/system/media/audio/ui/Effect_Tick.ogg (Actually, I really don't think this is necessary because I accidentally deleted this file entirely without replacement and have still achieved the same results, but if it makes you feel comfortable...)
PLUS
/system/media/audio/ui/S_HW_Touch.ogg (This is the sound for the "back" and "menu" keys on the bottom of the phone)
AND ALSO
/system/media/audio/ui/TW_Touch.ogg (This is the MAIN file that changes the sound on every touch made on the touchscreen)
Hope this helps!
And oh yeah... DEFINITELY make sure you're using a root-capable file explorer with "/System/" mounted as RW and make sure permissions are set to "rw-r-r" when you're done. And reboot for new sounds to take effect.

I'm sure the keyboard has one too. So there may be a ton of files lol. I always disable keytones and what not as soon as I touch an electronic device. They drive me nuts. It'd be a fun prank to replace the bloop with the camera click tho

/system/media/audio/ui/S_HW_Touch.ogg (This is the sound for the "back" and "menu" keys on the bottom of the phone)
AND ALSO
/system/media/audio/ui/TW_Touch.ogg (This is the MAIN file that changes the sound on every touch made on the touchscreen)
Hope this helps!
And oh yeah... DEFINITELY make sure you're using a root-capable file explorer with "/System/" mounted as RW and make sure permissions are set to "rw-r-r" when you're done. And reboot for new sounds to take effect.

I was tinkering around in the sounds and found out that this works really easy.
Unfortunately the effects are not immediately noticible, it requires a reboot to have the system sounds replaced.
Also another big thing is that if you want to keep your phones original sounds just rename the file TW_Touch.ogg.off or .Bak all you need to do is add something to the end that makes the file null by the phone and it can always be changed back to reinstate the stock sound

This helped me SO much! Ty all! I was stuck on this for like 2 days lol.

Is there a fix for the "Chameleon" network?

Seems that more than a few people have this issue, even with the actual OTA update.
I am also missing any sort of Spring boot animation, only the LG animation plays.

I am assuming it wasn't corrected before they sent out the OTA, they probably put Chameleon and change the boot ani so that people don't know which phone it is for.
I think you can go into the build.prop and change it to Sprint if you really want it. And if you really want the Sprint boot ani's you can check out my thread here.
Try reactivating the phone and updating the prl and profile. I've heard that fixes it. Do the dial menu combo, can't remember the numbers. Lol

This did not help the issue. Ran it twice.
Hmm...someone lied then! Haha. I'll have to find the post. But it was a thought. And it didn't hurt to try it. My apologies.

Okay, I will tell you the answer and the reason it is doing it. But, it will cost you 5 bucks each......just kidding.
What is Chameleon?
In an internal memo I found Sprint announced they will lease their network to independent companies and you could use existing unbranded Sprint phones for the service. The network is named Chameleon because you can disguise it to be any network you want. You could make it Billy Bob's Mobile if you wanted.
How?
All they have to do is turn off the branding. It will change the Sprint boot animation in the network settings and hocus pokus, you have a stock LG boot animation and a phone that say "Chameleon" instead of "Sprint".
The fix?
Turn back on your Sprint boot animation in the network settings.

Interesting, how is it randomly happening?
Where in the network settings exactly? Ive never seen this option. My phone is still stock.

Did something like that once on an Imperium build on the Photon. Folks were not amused.

Funny thing is I've never had this "Chameleon" issue on Stock or otherwise. I could post a build.prop with the proper carrier ID but folks would need to root to apply the fix. Personally, I say ignore it and enjoy the phone.
Would I hurt anything to run ##CLEAR# based off these codes?

I don't know what option it is that does it. But, it is something you changed in the dialer menu. Ask autoprime on irc. I was the one that told him what was causing the issue. He knew what exactly fixed it.

Factory reset didnt work
Ya, factory reset won't work. It is in the hidden dialer menu. Do you remember what you changed in it?

Okay, first, if your not on Sprint than you don't want to do this. So, are you on boost or cricket?
If you are on Sprint you need to turn your branding back on. This is what I have been saying all along.
You need to go to the dialer. Type 3845#*970#. Go to Data. Go to PPP. Changed it back from Undetermined to Sprint.
But, like I said. If your not on Sprint let us know what your on and we can go from there. Either way, it is something you did to the network settings. Hope that helps.

I am on Sprint. The only thing I did was receive the OTA, didnt touch a single thing after that.
Going through that menu, the PPP options are Undeterminded, Sprint, SKT_Sprint. I tried selecting "Sprint" and it didnt take. I just tried "SKT_Sprint" and it still says Chameleon.
Tried the ppp change as well with no success
Selected Sprint, phone rebooted with no change
Okay, there is another way but I don't remember what it is. You use nova launcher. You create a shortcut to update something.
Ask autoprime on irc or send him a pm. He should know what it is.
I am trying but it seems like a persistent bug. Somehow your phones became unbranded. It really shouldn't be an issue other than it not saying Sprint.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Change the "ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha" field value from "Chameleon" to "Sprint" in the build.prop file and then reboot. Downloading a build.prop editor from the market was easiest for me but you can change it manually as well.

id be careful changing certain settings. setting SKT could lead to broken 3g.
a ##786# reset seems to also lead to "chameleon". if you lgnpst'd back to stock zv9.. then upgraded to zvb it should fix chameleon issue.. but thats annoying.
easy fix...
1. install nova launcher
2. with nova launcher now set as launcher hold on homescreen to create new shortcut.
3. select new short cut > activities.
4. scroll down the list until you see "Update Device"... click update device then look for a "Branding" submenu.
5. Click on "Branding" and you will make a "Branding" shortcut on your Homescreen.
6. Click new "Branding" shortcut and set Branding to "Sprint"
Confirmed working in both ZV9 and ZVB.

Want to Change S-Pen Sounds without having to use another app

The Note 20 Ultra is Great, but I would like to be able to change the S-Pen Sounds without having to install another App or a Launcher.
I would likento know where the Hidden Folder would be for the S-Pen Sounds so I can Change the Sound for when it is removed as well as it being put back.
If Anyone Knows this Information, then Please post it here for Everyone to see.
Agian, No Mods, No Apps, and No Launchers to change the S-Pen Sounds.

I'm going to just go assume you'd need root to change the audio files that are most likely located in the system partition.
Do you have the Exynos or Snapdragon variant?
Tried to on the 10+, no joy.
Be nice if there be a Good Lock apk to do this...
It's a new phone.... you're not gonna find a way this soon in the game to do it without some other app. Do they even have root yet for it? Cause those folders you need root to view.

They are apparently going to be releasing a Good Lock app for Spen customization. May include sound changes if you want something more "official"

The Pentastic app available through the GoodLock app. Allows multiple customization to the S-Pen.

Yea, that was the app I was referring to. Seems decent, just gotta find some good pointers and sounds.
The good thing about Pentastic is you can install it as a standalone, good lock is not required. Pentastic is pretty good fun to use, well worth a try, just to try out new pen removal and insert noises is worth it.
Those looking to add lightsaber sounds to spen, download the lightsaber notification sounds from the zedge and use timbre app to reduce the volume of those files by 50% since they are very loud. 50% less is perfect balance.
I didn't get it on the playstore.. you can down load the apk from other sources.

Everyone is Talking about Good Lock.
What My Original Post was referring to was for being able to change the S-Pen Sounds without having to Install ANY other Apps that eat up Space and Resources.
I wish that by going through the System Files somewhere in Android that the S-Pen Sound Files Can be Found and Replaced for Both taking Out the S-Pen and Inserting the S-Pen.
Hopefully the Sounds are in an MP3 Format and can be Swapped without Any Problems and would stay even after Updates.
