deactivating snapshot sound

[big_sexy00]

i dont want my camera to make the snapshot noise when i take a picture, is there a way to turn it off?

Open the camera app. Bottom right corner is an icon that looks like 3 sideways i's. click that and then click the gear icon. Second on the list is shutter sound.

that setting isnt in my camera app.

Try looking in HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\General There should be a disable shutter sound key in the registry.

but how do i disable it though, i really dont know how.

[guitardoc64]

The key should have a value of either 1 or 0. change it to the opposite. Interesting that the Bell Touch camera app doesn't have the option. What is the camera build # (in about)?

**EDIT** will look in the registry and see if any other thing can be changed.

I found this in registry tweaks, and went one better. I created a blank Snap.wav file that you can either use with this tweak, or just use a file explorer like total commander and replace the sound file with this one.

HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\Common
"SourceOfSnapSound" = "\Windows\Snap.wav" (CHANGE to location of desired sound)

well i must be an idiot because it still makes the shutter sound, i have the silence.wave on my storage card and the camera still makes the shutter sound.

You need to replace the old .wav with the new one, not just place it on the SD card.

still doesnt work i've overwritten a slience.wave file that was already in windows and it still doesnt work for me.
