Turn your volume down?
No, it won't. I tried every possible way.

Does anyone of your NS make 'tick' sound? For example, when I capture a QR code, it makes very brief 'tick' sound. It's not the camera shutter sound. I can tell the difference...
I think there were few more instances where my NS makes tick sound but I can't recall.
it is app related, the barcodescanner makes an other sound than the camera app

I use Google Goggles. Would it be the same reason?
I think I had an instance with Google Camera app too. I can't recall though.
I honestly thought my camera didn't make such noise until few days back. I had this phone for more than 3 months now..
I've heard my Nexus S 'tick' after using Google Goggles but it doesn't happen all the time. Used to get it with my old SGS, too.
Only happens with Google Goggles though so its probably app related.

This tick sound is the mechanical focus mechanism of the camera lense. It continuously focuses from macro to infinity to reset in one short moment.
As hardly any application focuses repeatedly, except for let's say barcode readers, you won't hear that ticking in the standard camera app.
In a couple of days since buying my NS (9023) I noticed this click noise coming from the camera and quickly discovered it was from the camera's macro-to-infinity focus switch mechanism. The thing I would like to know if this happens to everybody else or is my NS "special" in some nasty way.
Also, sometimes after taking a macro pic the camera app gets stuck on displaying the picture taken without going back to the live-view camera screen to take the next picture. The only solution out of this is pressing the home button which makes the same clicking noise as above but louder. This makes me think that the macro switch mechanism inside the camera hardware gets stuck somehow.
Should I send it to be repaired? :-|
Hi everyone...
I'm looking for an app that would be running on my Android (Galaxy Note II) that would work as a dash camera... The app would be constantly recording, but would only save the video (the last 20 seconds, for example) when I press a button on the app... The idea is that I would put the phone on my car and drive... but I only want to save the video if I see something interesting happening or that just happened...
Has anyone seen an app that can do that? I tried AutoGuard and Dashboard Cam, but they record all the time...
Thanks!!

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and one of the things that annoy me the most is the stock camera app. Apart from it being really slow, I also cannot disable the camera shutter sound (some models have an option there but mine doesn't).
I have tried pretty much everything to disable te sound, but nothing works. Note: When the phone is on vibration mode or silent mode it still turns up the volume of the camera and makes that shutter sound (even when I'm wearing headphones, it stops the music and plays the shutter sound through the phone speakers).
I have tried apps like Camera Mute but they just turn the volume of the phone down when you open the camera, and as I said before, silencing the phone doesn't stop the camera sound.
Apart from that I had also rooted my Note 4 (since that sound made me crazy). I have tried using CSC Features (<cscfeature_camera_shuttersoundmenu>TRUE</cscfeature_camera_shuttersoundmenu>) and although this added the option to silence the shutter in the camera app, I was unable to click on it (and disable the sound).
My last option was to rename all the files that had anything to do with the camera sound (ex. Shutter.ogg, ...) and this worked... For about one day. After that the sound just started again (Note: the sounds were still renamed so I don't know how the sound could come back).
I also downloaded the "boosted" note 4 camera (Kevinrocksman's camera mod for Galaxy Note 4) and replaced the stock camera with it, but here was also no option to silence the shutter sound.
Also, apps like Snapchat and/or ProCapture Camera are all able to take silent pictures, it's just the stock camera app that doesn't want to cooperate. (And if you wonder why I don't just use ProCapture Camera to take pictures: I don't like their design + there are no options specific to the Note 4's camera (ex. 4K video recording, Smooth Motion, Slow Motion, etc. and the picture quality is also worse than on the stock camera app in my opinion).
Now if anyone can help me how to disable the camera shutter sound or if anyone has an app that takes great silence pictures and has all the options the note 4 stock camera has, I would be so thankful!
Hi,
Here is a thread on the subject in the Sprint Note 4 section.

Good luck!
Hey, i want to turn off the camera shutter sound when you make a picture or a video but i dont have this option in my settings (cause its not allowed in my country). I have the unikernel and have root. I DONT WANT TO USE ANOTHER CAMERA APP!!! So i navigated to /system/media/audio/ui and i clicked every audio file and i deleted all the sounds that had to do with the camera app and now it doesnt make any sounds when i make a picture or a video ONLY WHEN I MAKE A SELFIE WITH THE FRONT CAM IT STILL MAKES THE SHUTTER SOUND, BUT THE SOUND ISNT IN THE DIRECTORY!!! I only have this problem on the frontside cam when i make a picture!! What can i do to remove the shutter sound for the front cam???
Im on 5.1.1 and i have the unikernel stock and i have a sm-g920f
have you tried CSC expert?. I think it has the option to turn it off. Its in the playstore.
Thank you very much!! i changed the value and deleted the app after reboot and its still in the menu this way i didnt need to change the others.xml file manually

Hi NZnewbie
FYI, I've successfully used CSC Expert for enabling the shutter sound menu option for my Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920I (Aust.) exactly as you have prescribed (Lollipop v5.1.1)
Many thanks.
Hi TheKingOfQueens
Thanks for asking the question.
I too changed the audio files believed to be obvious (via: /system/media/audio/ui )
Cam_Start.ogg
Cam_Stop.ogg
camera_click.ogg
Shutter.ogg
Shutter_multiple.ogg
VideoRecord.ogg
................by adding ".bak" file extension at the end and "******_" at the start of the file names.
I didn't delete them.
Immediately, the shutter sound for the REAR camera SEEMED to stop.....but on RARE occasions the shutter sound would occur.
Unfortunately, camera shutter sound for rear BURST SHOTS always happened and I can confirm the same for the FRONT CAMERA shutter sound (I was unaware of this one until you mentioned).
Weird........
CSC Expert is the way to go once and for all!
Many thanks.
The developer deserves a medal or some recognition to encourage him to hopefully continue his good work.
Regardless, I would be interested to know WHY the camera was still making the the numerous shutter sounds even after the renaming of the audio files (pre-implementing CSC Expert).
You know you could just put your phone on silent right?

Sure and funny enough I discusssed it today with a friend but the "Shutter sound" camera menu option only mutes camera sounds whilst providing full "alert" audio for everything else.
"Volume down" also achieves this but taking photos of recent neighbourhood events would make this a chore.
Shame I didn't know about this CSC fix earleir.
So one day I try to take a video using my stock camera app on my No-root S7 edge but it doesn't work.
The app can take pictures but nothing video related. I tried a different camera app and the video worked fine, so I figured this was not a hardware problem.
I wanted to use the video related features in the stock camera app like video collage so I decided to reset the phone.
This helped and the video worked fine with the camera stock app I started installing all my apps and after a few hours I discovered the problem returned.
Eventually I manged to isolate the problem and to make a long story short if you have this problem or know of someone who do, the problem is a clash with Audio Management Applications. I don't know if this has anything to do with the volume up and down buttoned being used to control things on the camera but once I uninstalled the apps the video started working again.
To make sure I tried 2 different apps one is Audio Manager Pro and the other is Smart Volume Control+.
With any one of these application the video feature in the stock camera app crush, uninstall the audio control app and the video works fine.
