Camera.apk with option shutter sound off - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods

Can anyone please upload the original camera.apk which includes the option for switching the shutter sound off.

Not sure what you mean...the camera app on my S7E (Verizon, took the most recent update) has the option to turn of the shutter sound in the Settings.

seen not every variant has this option in setting.
Mine is TW version (G935FD) and I can't find it in setting

Lower your system volume.

T-Mobile S7E....its in camera settings Dawg.

The possibility to turn off or on is probably not in the apk itself. Turnng off systemsounds is likely the best option for now is my guess.

there are 22 others.xml on my S7E, which one is the correct to edit?
EDIT: only 2 other.xml have my country code: "system/csc/MOB/system/scs/others.xml" and "system/csc/others.xml". which one should I edit?

tried to edit and save, but it seems that without root it's not possible. or is there a workaround? for example adb?

No. Only rooted phone can modify system files. It's the same without root you can't replace the apk file itself.

Just wondering: why do you want to do this?

Camera.apk
Ohh, i aslo take care it.

Easiest fix is drop volume to vibrate or silent and serves same purpose. And to the question of why he wants this, does it matter? Lol why do we want any feature on a phone, personal preference.

Actually it is not. In Korea there is no setting and no way to decrease the sound of the shutter due to the law. Not even by plugging in headphones or lowering volume. Unless the phone is rooted and in that case it's illegal. .......It's to help convince perverts not to take photos up girls skirts. If it is rooted though and this may work for all phones. It did for my Korean Note, S4, and S5. Go into system/media/audio/ui look for any files named shutter.ogg or similar there will be a couple, rename them adding .bak (ex. shutter.ogg.bak) so they are easy to find and fix if you have issues. Reboot and voila. Yo will have to do this each time you flash an update.

Hmm. That doesn't sound promising. Seems like multi shutter ogg did it on the S4 & S5. I haven't rooted my new SM-G935K yet though. Only had it since the 10th, gotta wait foe the new to wear off.

If you have root there is an xposed module that will turn off the sound, I'm using it at the moment and works fine

You can also use Silent Cam app on the Play Store. It works on the S7 - I have a 935FD too.
BTW I'm affiliated in any way shape or form with this app.

[Request] disable camera sound from camera settings

I ask you guys if someone is able to add in camera settings an option to disable the camera sound, it's not present in the stock app
the only way I found is to disable system volume via cVolume
anyone ? thx

Where's the file located?
+1 I hate that sound
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
if you want it to sound different, just replace it with a different file.
if you don't want to hear it, just rename it.
if you want an automated process to do it, just make a simple script that renames it back and forth between the proper name and anything else (remember to mount r/w)
i don't get why people want this as an option.. is there EVER a time when you actually want it to make the sound? just nuke it... why waste the space for a radio button or check-box?
*edit* also, @deadpoux ... it's not an option in the stock rom because they've been trying to make it a legal requirement in many places, including the US. Not sure if this has passed or not, but here's the first link I found about it. http://www.tgdaily.com/consumer-electronics-features/41212-camera-click-sound-could-become-legally-required
sorry in advance for being so noob, but.... how can I delete/rename the file?
Tried using terminal emulator on the phone, but get no permission message....
please advise.
thnks
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
Should do the trick.
if you're not comfortable with using adb, just download "rootexplorer" and navigate to the directory then in the upper right corner, click the button to select "r/w" access (read/write) and then long click camera_click.ogg and delete or rename, etc...
then switch back to "r/o" (read only) when you're done.
I will mention if you use root explorer, be VERY careful, if you poke around too much, you may cause issues with your phone. I can't see anyone actually bricking their phone with it, but it would require a reflash at the very least. I'd recommend at least trying to understand adb basics.
thanks guys, I used adb with your suggestion and now the camera is silent!!
thanks again!

depending on what rom ur on
CM 5.0.5.3 has desire camera port and it has the shut shutter sound off in options
its a bit more difficult getting the CM 5.0.5.3 desire camera port to work on CM 5.0.6 and the app is obviously on the desire rom's, enom's official rom has the use for it as well

[HOW TO] Remove camera sounds. ROOT REQUIRED

Hi all.. If you want to turn the sound of your camera then this is the trick if you use this with my mod of the camera... it should be completely mute. no focus sound or shutter sound.
use with this mod to eliminate all sounds (focus and shutter etc).
Stock camera no sound mod
Use a file explorer. In system writeable mode
Go to system/media/audio/ui
Then change the name of these files as on the picture.. You can name then what you want though. Reboot.. and enjoy. Working and tested on my I9505
This does not remove the little beep on manual focus.
as mentioned below.. there are several ways to do this...this is just my way, which is easy and it is easy to return to normal.. just remove the .backup again
The poweron.ogg is to remove boot sound

The good part about this app is that you will be able to reenable the shutter sound if you wish and the app can be uninstalled, also this app is not really needed as you can just add a line to the others.xml file in the CSC folder to achieve this. But yeah, you're way works as well

Cool - I done this and it works a treat!!
**EDIT: This post refers to a mod which activates an unused menu option to switch off the shutter sound. Other sounds in the camera app will still be present. Thought I'd clarify this in case of any confusion.
Just in case anyone else wants to do this (I think this would be the 'correct' method of applying this fix as opposed to removing the sound file or muting your phone!), then here is a little guide.
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:
<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).
Thanks to all above for guiding me to this little fix, it takes no time at all to apply. The camera sound was annoying me a bit and was surprised to see it wasn't a supplied function.
To revert, simply go back to the file you edited, delete it, then remove the '.bak' from the backed-up file.
And all credit to the original Dev. for the code for this mod, at this thread:

The CSC mod does not work for me. "/system/csc" does not exist on my i9505. Tried the app that does the CSC edits and still no go. Deleted the media/ui files and the camera focus sound is still there.
The only way that I can silence the camera is to place the phone is silent mode.
Anyone have any ideas for a fix?

I'm not familiar with the various rom folder structures, but I get the impression this one is pretty universal...
However, if you post your rom version then maybe someone can help you.
Also, if you deleted the sound file, did you reboot afterwards?

I was issued an Australian unbranded i9505 and flashed Omega3.0 which I gather already has the no-shutter mod implemented. However, the focus sound still remained. I did rebooted heaps afterwards and it was still the same.
There's no CSC folder anywhere that I can find.

The OP's topic of this thread is to remove the shutter sound (press the button to take a photo), not the focus sound. So the fix that is being discussed prior to your posts are not relevant to the focus sound.
@MRDOCA who posted before your above quoted message is on Omega and seems to think the shutter fix worked for him, so he must have found the correct folder location. But even so, this won't help you with the focus sound...
If you've found the shutter sound file in the media/ui folder and have rebooted, do you have custom recovery installed, can you wipe caches and reboot?
I'm out of ideas other than this, maybe someone else will recognise your problem and offer better assistance.

[MOD] Volume Boosting for SM-N900 [ROOT] * Discontinued *

*** DISCONTINUED DUE TO MY TIME RESTRICTIONS***
Hi All,
This is my first thread so please excuse me if I'm breaching any rules.
This is a Volume Boost MOD for SM-900 version of our beloved Note 3. You need a ROOTED Device!
MOD.zip is for a high boost and
MOD_Moderate.zip is for a moderate boost.
MOD_Little.zip is for a little boost. (This is intended to be in between Stock and Moderate)
Note that these are all relative and changes from one's taste to that of another.
This mod increases the Speaker volume when the speaker is on during
- a phone conversation,
- music playback
- Ringtones, notifications..etc
Additionally, there's a slight increase in the wired headphone during Music Playback.
1- BACKUP YOUR ysound.xml file under /system/etc. Then, Unzip the desired MOD provided in zip attached and overwrite ysound.xml file to /system/etc with the file explorer of your choice. Here, I used ES Explorer.
2- Once you're done unzipping and overwriting the existing ysound.xml file select the file then press "More" , then "Properties", then "Change" button for the "Permissions". Apply -rw-r-r-- for the permissions. Attached, you'll see the screenshots for the procedure.
3- Once you make SURE that you followed the instructions, reboot the device.
4- In case you want to come back to the original stock version of the file, either put back your backup or unzip the attached ORIGINAL.zip and apply the above 1 and 2.
Hope this is useful.
PS. Please can someone find out and share what the line 3558 is for in the modded file that I attached? Thank you.
Kartal, thanks for this mod, I think this is also valid for SM-N9000Q for Turkish phones, right?
Regards.

Yes, this MOD should work on all SM-900 models, including the Turkish SM-N9000Q. Mine is SM-N9000Q and it works flawlessly.
This MOD has nothing to do with the phone ID or firmware (as long as the device is SM-N900). Btw, you can easily change the phone ID.

I adjusted so that the music doesn't get distorted heavily. I suggest that you use it at around 90% volume as it sounds OK to me. Just try it yourself, start from 100% volume and come down gradually until you are happy with the sound.
I am pretty sure it is not gonna break your speakers, at least..

Unfortunately, there's no way to use this MOD without root. There are other apps in Google Play but they work differently (if they work for Note3 at all). This MOD modifies the xml script of Yamaha.

[APP] Camera Mute Version 1.5 (11-19-13) - Mute your camera shutter without ROOT

Hi, this is a simple app that I created using tasker.
My Note 3 doesnt have the option to turn off the shutter sound, this is why I made this app.
Originally made for my Samsung Note 3, but I've tried on Samsung Note 2 and it also works.
Basically it just mutes that annoying shutter sound without Root.
Some Samsung devices don't have this option.
Anyways, don't have a good icon yet but once I do have a good icon I'll post in in playstore as well.
Anyone has a good icon?
Now it only works for Stock Camera app.
How It works:
If you launch your camera, it will mute your phone, if you exit the camera application it will restore the sound of your phone.. that simple.
Disclaimer:
- In some places, muting your camera shutter isn't permitted. Please obey local laws.
By installing Camera Mute, you agree that the author of the application will not be held responsible in any actions that you make.

Hear a small beep sound after you exit the camera application?
What Camera Mute does is it mutes your phone when you are running the camera application, and it unmutes the phone when you exit.
When you put your phone on silent mode then put it back to normal mode you will hear a small beep. Its the same beeping sound that you will hear when you exit your camera. This is due to how Android was designed. As of now, I don't know if its possible to mute that sound as well without ROOT access. Please don't post that Camera Mute doesn't work in case you hear that sound. I've designed the application to silence the shutter, and nothing more.

- If this app doesn't work for you, you can help me out by sending me the camera app name and package name.
1) Download the app called ApkSpy by ido, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115021
2) Drop your camera apk file and send me a screenshot or the name of the app name and package name.
or send me the apk file please email it to [email protected]
In order to get the apk file from your phone I use an awesome tool name Apk Share & Backup by KN Inc.

This app was done using Tasker, please support Tasker by Crafty Apps.

Limitations:
Some phones doesn't turn off the camera shutter even if you put the phone on silent. If that's the same case with your phone then there is no way that Camera Mute will work.

Update: 11/03/2013
New version will be out soon. I can't do anything about the beep sound when your phone unmutes, however I can delay it. I have updated the program (soon to be released) now it has a counter. You will have the option to change the seconds on when the phone unmutes. Its the only workaround I can think of right now. Would anyone be interested in that feature? Example I have the counter set to 5seconds, so after you exit the camera app, it will take 5 seconds before you will hear that beep sound.
thanks works great on my VZ N3! Exactly what I was looking for! Cheers!:good::good:
App updated, now supports Lenovo's Super Camera and Huawei's Stock Camera.
It works on my S3. Thank you.
Edit: the only problem is it beeps when you exit out of camera app. Not exactly a complete silence. LOL Perhaps you can fix that...

That sound isn't from the application. Its the default sound samsung makes when you unmute/unsilent your phone. Im not sure if I can do anything about it but I will check.
It doesn't work at all on my Gn3 (N9005, stock not rooted) :\ Is there anything special to do ?

Sadly, it did not work with my Sprint Galaxy S3.
Thanks for this awesome tweak Glen!
Does the job nicely, thanks!
Works on my Sprint S4. This will do until I feel need to root this mja 4.3 update.
Confirmed working on S4 i9500 International with 4.2.2. Thanks for the app .
Works with Note3 Exynos
Thank you!

Please make sure that after you install the application you go to the app and click enable, if it doesnt work click disable and enable it again. See if that works.

did you install the previous version? if so, kindly uninstall that one first.
If not, can you install APK files? make sure you can install APK files, go to Settings -> Security -> Check "Unknown source".

Ok I will have to research on that one. I've never encountered that before.
What phone are you using?
Works for LG G2 AT&T. Great work, thank you very much for the app.

Turn off Camera sound?

Is there a way to turn off the sound that happens when you take a picture with the camera?
Thanks

If the Camera App doesn't have that option under Settings and your phone is rooted, you can disable it using a
root explorer App and navigate to: system/media/audio/ui
and rename the file "camera_click.ogg" to whatever you want.
This isn't really a solid solution to your problem (could be a hassle to you), but if you put your phone on silent or vibrate you will not hear the shutter sound go off! This works for me as because my phone is always in vibrate mode from the moment I wake up, however like i said not a solid solution if you don't prefer silent or vibrate mode.
Just mute your ringer. It works, at least in EU version.

The option doesn’t exist in the settings. Muting the phone before every time I use the camera is too much of a nuisance since I keep the sound on for other apps.
So, since my phone is rooted, your option of renaming the sound file is the best one for me. Tried it and it worked perfectly.
Thank you!

The option in settings is a custom ROM feature that some ROMs have. Keep in mind that removing the .ogg won't disable the sound for the HDR+ mode in Google Camera, as its embedded into the apk. You could use a Tasker profile to mute it when your camera app is open, too.

I purchased Tasker long ago, just to support the author, but to my shame I have not yet learned how to use it...... ?
That would indeed be a good use for Tasker. Maybe I will find a ready made profile (if that's what they are called) that someone else donated.
Thanks for the suggestion.

If not Menton me here and I'll make one. I fulfill tasker requests all the time.
Thanks Sandman. There doesn't seem to be one I can find so I would appreciate it if you made one to mute sound when I click on the camera shortcut and unmute when I click on home.
Thanks.

Sorry man. Just now seeing this. I'll try tomorrow. No promises though. I'm pretty good with tasker but I think this one will be a challenge. 1st part will be easy. 2nd part will be a bit more tricky

OK here you go man. Let me know if you have any issues. I did test it. If you have notification sound issues while this profile is active (only while in camera app) let me know. I'll find a workaround.
Make sure you remove the .XML extension (leave the .prl). Move to SDCARD/Tasker/Autoimport. Relaunch Tasker.

Also if you want any training or any Qs shoot me a PM and I'll teach you some stuff
Got it. Thank you very much!

No problem
Be careful with it, it is illegal in some countries to shut up camera sound when you take pics. To answer your question, i dont know, but i'm french and i don't have played sound when i take pics.
