LG G8 Camera Silent Shutter - LG G8 Questions & Answers

Anyway to do this? Or is there a decent aftermarket camera app that works well with this phone that has the silent shutter option?

its in the setting under general > shutter sound

My Tmobile G8 has no such setting.
Last I checked, there are several Silent Camera apps in the play store, which mute the system upon opening the camera. I tried a couple free ones, but they were made for older phones. I haven't tried them all, I was hoping the community might help figure out which ones work.
Open Camera works well and allows muting, but it can't use the wide-angle.
My good old Silent Boot app also became outdated with this phone, so a new one of those would be great as well.

I have the unlocked Amazon Alexa version of the phone and I also don't have the shutter sound mute option under settings. I will check out a 3rd party camera app.
If I use a 3rd party camera app will I be losing photo quality over the stock app? That's my only fear

no such option on my phone

I just turn on DND temporarily. It turns that sound off. You could try to turn on vibrate only too. It's a hassle, I know.

Nope, not on this Tmo version of the phone. Which version of the G8 are you using?
Did you mean the app "Open Camera"? In the latest version of that app, it's under "more camera controls".

Most other apps I've tried aren't well integrated, have different processing, or won't use the wide camera.
We need either root (hah!) or a new Silent Shutter app that mutes the phone when the camera launches. The apps I've found on the play store are for older phones, let's hope a new one comes out soon.

I opened my camera like I was going to take a picture. Upper left, there's a gear, setting symbol. Went into that and then useful features > shutter sound. Verizon, model LM-G820UM, Software G820UM10d.

Interesting. I wonder if it's only verizon phones that got lucky. I wonder what the other versions have done.

Camera shutter

I know this is probably on everyone's mind, so does anyone have a way to mute the camera shutter sound? I searched for camera muting apps, but none seem to be compatible with the E4T.
Is there a camera app that maintains the quality of stock while allowing muting?
Thanks!
edit: Not sure how to change this into a question thread

Yeah, but you probably don't want to root just to be able to mute the camera shutter sound... at least not just yet.
I've found it quite annoying how you can't mute the shutter sound despite the camera app I try.
I've gone into every app I have, that offers shutter sound setting, Set it to OFF, and the phone continues to produce shutter sound when taking pictures.
Is this a bug ?

Right. Not worth the trouble in my case, but it is pretty lame.
A coworker read somewhere that I could use Tasker to mute the system, so I'm working on that approach.
There is an app in the market called shut up! camera! Requires root but amazingly it works with just one press of the disable button!

Yes if you open up S Voice and go to setting there is a option there to control apps with your voice. Click on it NOT the checkmark and it will let you choose what apps you want to control.

Can H2OS Call recorder be ported to OOS?

Is it possible to Port H2OS Call recorder to OOS?
I love H2OS...but it doesn't support Volte...
and OOS doesn't support call recording...
As a workaround I installed OOS...Booted ans configured it and then went to TWRP and wiped System partion and flashed H2OS.
Now I can use H2OS with Volte.
It will be a lot better if I could use H2OS call recorder on OOS.

Can anyone with an oneplus 3, not 3T confirm that we have call recording built it?
Not seeing it on mine either. 1+3
Call recording in OB13 is geo-locked, the option is invisible when you are in countries that have laws against call recording. You might be able to find the menu through using third-party settings shortcut apps.

as i know, the option is only available in China. just change persist.sys.oem.region=OverSeas to persist.sys.oem.region=CN on build.prop and you can get the option.

It worked! Thanks mate. One thing I noticed after the reboot. The capacitive buttons switched places. What will happen if we change the region? Cheers
I can confirm i have this option here in India. Please note that some countries' law does not allow call recording. So it will be disabled for you by default.

I imagine you can switch the buttons in the options.
I am in US and can confirm changing
Code:
persist.sys.oem.region=OverSeas
to
Code:
persist.sys.oem.region=CN
in build.prop did in fact allow for calls to be recorded. It also flipped my back/recents buttons. I was a little curious/worried what else changing the region settings updated, so I changed back to
Code:
persist.sys.oem.region=OverSeas
and after a reboot I am still able to record calls. It's weird though as the buttons are still swapped (so I have to enable the swap buttons option in system settings), but at least I have call recording while still having my oem.region set to OverSeas.
EDIT: Can someone with US phone who has not updated their persist.sys.oem.region check Settings->About phone and see if there is a 'Preinstalled application list' menu item in there? I haven't seen that before and clicking it shows (assumably) a list of apps in Chinese. Also, there is now a 'H₂OS version' with 'Unknown' status in there. I am using 3T OOS Open Beta 4 with FrancoKernel. Any idea what/why that is?

as you know, h2os is the official ROM of Chinese devices which is most likely of oos. this operation simply changes the oos to h2os lack of some special apps. apks below can fix bugs of change.

Auto Speaker

I have used two apps Auto Speaker and SpeakerPhone on my previous phones basically uses proximity sensor to switch between earpiece and speaker which is super convenient for me. That said neither work on op5t and its stupid dialer. Any suggestions options?

No need to be rooted.
Just look in Apps, you just need to install.APK and give permissions.
Google dialer does not have this option. I love proximity speaker as well. Hopefully we start getting more roms, like purefusion that integrate this feature into the dialer

I never know what to look for often there are multiple variations with multiple threads etc...like the google cam, no idea which one is new which one isn't is is gcam or google camera all in one etc, i have it installed now, one of the versions works nice other than the apps for automatic speakerphone still don't work.
If somebody could explain to me how to find the latest apps and all the apps available other than scour through hundreds of pages I would appreciate it.

XDA and OnePlus community has something new everyday, so is just you have to read read read, download and try installing. Next day you will find updated version of App, update. If you don't like latest update, revert back to old version.
All about community is to try beta versions and help developers by feedback and having fun modifying your device with your choice.

You will find many versions of same app, bxuz they all offer special kinda tweaks from different developers.
