Silent Camera Hack (or Custom Sound!)
 
SILENT / CUSTOM SOUND CAMERA



...in usr/share/sounds the files camera_snd_title_1, 2 and 3 (1 is the camera shutter sound, 2 is the video recording sound and 3 is the focus sound) just replace them with any working wav sound file OR for a SILENT CAMERA just rename or delete these files!







[QUOTE=biggzy;462291]I used WinSCP to see system files and replaced the sounds in usr/share/sounds the files are camera_snd_title_1, 2 and 3,
1 is the camera shutter sound, 2 is the video recording sound and 3 is the focus sound, just replace them with any working wav sound file.

Is the sound even active on the silent profile? or on volume all the way down?

It's actually /usr/share/sound. You should really learn basic linux files system and commands. And use terminal to access those files.

to change directory: cd /some/directory
to remove a files: rm file
to rename a file: mv file newfile

For all those who are not familiar with the command line (cmd):

Code:

sudo gainroot
cd /usr/share/sounds/
for file in camera_snd_title_{1,2,3}.wav ; do
    mv ${file} ${file/wav/bak}
done

or as oneliner:
Code:

sudo gainroot ; cd /usr/share/sounds/ ; for file in camera_snd_title_{1,2,3}.wav ; do mv ${file} ${file/wav/bak} ; done
And your Camera is a silent one ;-)

Cheers Bjoern

Re: Silent Camera Hack (or Custom Sound!)
 
how do u delete the camera sound 1? i already transfered the sound that i want and its in n900 internal memory i think its in ringtones and i want to make it as a camera shutter sound. i how do i replace the original camera shutter sound with the one that i want? what do i type? i used to be s60 owner and modder and now im new and kinda confused to linux and especially in command. =(

can u show me step by step so that way ill understand it more from the start. do i have to use the mc or just terminal? thanks!

No, _I_ will not.
And maybe it was a bad idea to write the onliner two posts above.

Please, if you want to play around as root on the CMD, get yourself a little bit knowledge about how to use the CMD (in this case BusyBox) and how powerful it is:

An introduction to the Linux command line

In many cases the shell is more convenient and faster then clicking around with a mouse.

Thanks! I really f*king hate that sound. There should be option to turn it off by default!
