The easiest way is to use Root Explorer. Of course in any case, you HAVE to be rooted to do this.

Make sure you remount it to RO when finished. You're playing with the risky stuff if you do any of this.

Why don't you guys just use Potatoman's hacked camera? Much better quality and its silent. Search for the thread, it's easy to find. I don't have time to post a link right now.

Hi, I did root my phone and use the terminal emulator to rename the camera_click.ogg to camera_click.oggOLD but the shutter sound still exist.

Did anyone have the same problem?? I am running out of ideas...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pbrbent:
Do you have to be rooted to install this apk?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
This is from the hacked camera post. Haven't tested myself yet.

Additional info:

If you want to get rid of the shutter sound, create a file in /data called local.prop and add the line "ro.camera.sound.forced=0" and restart your phone. This removes both the shutter sound and the focus sound when your phone is on silent, but keeps the sound when it's not on silent. - llBlackenedll

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Compusmurf:
I know this is an old post that got dug up.

But here's the procedure.

1. Rooted phone.

2. delete/rename the cam sounds in the media folder.

3. copy the camera.apk file to your pc.

4. use apktool or one of the various editors, break the file, remove the additional sounds from there.

5. recompile the apk.

6. copy back to phone, replacing the old one, reset permissions

7. reboot.

OR

Find someone's rom who's already done the apk mods and skip steps 4/5 just using their camera.apk file for step 6.

And one more thing. In some jurisdictions, it's illegal to have a silenced camera which is why the beep was put in the apk file itself. If you're in one of those areas, DO NOT DO THIS.

[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
Good read, reminds me of how XP's memory handleing is compared to Vista/7's system.

Basic jist:

XP: System asks for very little: Task manager shows only ~100mb used on a very slim system

Vista/7: System uses ~40% of available memory if it's free, surrenders it back as programs are loaded that need it. Task manager shows ~2gb used on a slim system (assuming 4gb total rom)

What's it look like? Vista/7 uses 2gb vs XP uses 100mb.

What it does: Not much difference really, Vista/7 is just as stable with ram intensive apps (example: a virtual machine asking for 3gb ram on a 4gb system) both on XP and Vista/7 it will run and not bog the system down (from a ram perspective, we're completely ignoring cpu usage).

It's reasonably similar in android: recently loaded apps stay resident in memory, if the foreground app needs more ram android will unload older apps that arnt running. If you wanna run an app unloaded from memory, android has to reload it from storage.

If you task-kill everything immediately, android will ALWAYS have to reload from memory. The only exception is if the app didnt behave well in the first place (like auto-loading with a memory heavy service), if that's the case you're just as well off complaining to the dev because he/she needs to fix it anyway.

Though with the streak stageui is a pretty good example of this, widgets pretty much always stay loaded as they're widgets. Most of them use background services to update themselves and they're rather cpu/ram intensive.

You could task-kill them, but the right thing would be to freeze/completely remove them if you dont use them.

Hello Guys!

I just ordered a Galaxy Tab literally 10 minutes ago and I was wondering if you was interested in me porting the Black Android Theme by Pele? I have already ported it to the SGS II but i stopped theming for that device and fancied a new challenge (hence why im here ;))

Let me know if you want to see this theme on your Tab and i will get porting when i get my Tab through the mail.
[HTC Sensation] monkey hung:
I like the way the iPhone's rotate in a sense that when you go from landscape to portrait and vice versa, it doesn't make the screen disappear. You can actually see the screen rotate. I'm not sure if I have explained myself correctly, but how can I get my CM7 Sensation to do that anyway?
[HTC Sensation] mathrania:
i dont have any such app...but i got your question correctly... u r looking for a screen rotation animation kind of thing..from portrait to lanscape and vice versa...
[HTC Sensation] ramsrocker:
in settings you can change your screen animation to always or something of the sort. Make sure you have that ticked. If that does not do what you want.. then you may have to go join the apple cult for that awesome screen animation :)
[HTC Sensation] Rouz.:
Screen rotation animation is only available on sense 3.5 roms. Try them, its exactly what you are looking for (Portrait <=> Landscape)

Haven't seen it on any other rom YET. I'm not sure if it can be ported or not

[LG Thrill 4G] RootTheNoob:
I just got the LG Thrill today and I love the phone so far, my question is. Should I return it and go back to my Inspire or wait? Because it looks like the Dev section here is dead and I don't know whether soon there will be any changes or updates. Any advice? 0_o
[LG Thrill 4G] Gr8Danes:
No one wants to dev on 2.2 when 2.3 is only weeks away. When Gingerbread is released, it should pick up.

I want to thank the Devs that have been so kind to give us the mods so far with 2.2. Can't wait for 2.3 and of course CM7 (which is in process as we speak)
[LG Thrill 4G] RootTheNoob:
So when 2.3 is released what do I do? Do I have to update my device? Can I update it if it's rooted?
[LG Thrill 4G] Trekfan422991:
no your going to need to go back to stock rom and remove CWM if you have it on and unroot... or you will not be able to get the OTA... but when it comes out GTG said he would grab the update and make a rom right away for it.. so im not worried about it...
[LG Thrill 4G] RootTheNoob:
So I won't need to go back? I can just like wait for the new rom to come out and flash it? Or what? And do you think MIUI will be ported anytime soon?
[LG Thrill 4G] Trekfan422991:
Personally I'm just gonna wait for gtg to make the new gb rom when it comes out... I'm not gonna wanna go all the way back to stock to get gingerbread which will have all the bloat and stupid waste stuff and limited data speeds...

Sent from my LG Thrill 4G...
[LG Thrill 4G] Gr8Danes:
My thoughts exactly. Not worth the effort to go back to stock just to get an OTA when our devs will make it better soon there after.
[LG Thrill 4G] RootTheNoob:
Sounds good I'm looking forward to the release of CM7, Leedroid, or MIUI. I'm hoping more towards MIUI, because I believe that it would be beautifully ported on this phone. And with CM7 and Leedroid this thing would just fly.
[LG Thrill 4G] Spartoi:
You can flash Optimus 3D Roms with no problems besides loss of "4G". They have more Roms, the 2D to 3D converter, and CM7.

I love messing with my devices when i can deal with the issues, but i wouldnt put a buggy leak on someone elses phone who may not be as open minded. Two common problems I experienced myself and read about on here were:

-random reboots. They've got a compelling theory in the works but you're messing with cpu speeds and voltages

-stock browser sucks. No way to go back a page; back button closes browser.

She had a thousand problems with the phone all ready it was a refurb. so I'm not too worried about it. if it causes issues, then I can root it.

[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
They are all from leaks with no source so therefore buggy. An EG22 ROM will give less to no random reboots but alarm does not work in silent mode (download another alarm like Extreme) and the browser is buggy and will not download from most links (grab another browser like miren or skyfire). Hope this helps.

End of October actually sounds reasonable. I think we'll see it then. Hasn't WDM been predicting around this time all along? I think we were just overly optimistic when we saw all these leaks coming out. Anyway as long as all the bugs are squashed out by the final release, idc when it comes out.

All I can think of everytime I see this thread is, "Don't ask for ETAs!" - and that rule applies to roms that are being developed by devs here at XDA... if our devs can't give ETAs for their own work, how can they (or anyone else) give an ETA for software that is being developed by someone else, behind closed doors in a private corporate building in Korea?

I wish I could agree. Stacking up how I like the epic 4g vs my evo3d. I'd already broke this epic 4g my wife has. Its a pos, wish that gingerbread + source was out so we had a better chance at getting cm faster. Dunno but everytime I try to use this phone or do something to it, it just feels like throw up each and every time. Finally got acs froze 1.2 going good on it, about it. I got extremely high hopes for cm7 + deca is amazing. Sprint refuses to let me swap this phone with a different model, so I get to ride this out until asurion no longer carries it and its eol from sprint.
[Epic 4G General] sauron0101:
