@gbrooks3 & ~DC:UK~

Is it possible to actually remove the camera sound using SETool without pressing "C" button as I now have to (I used Davinci)?

Well, i am not totally sure as i dont often use Setool for this feature but you can change the camera sound. Therefore if you create a "blank" camerashutter.amr file then write it to the phone, you wont have any sound due to the blank sound file.

@vee has more experience in this feature than myself. I am sure he will post the correct method if mine is wrong.

Yes, I just read their pdf-file explaining how to replace sound files. 3 problems: 1) Whats the exact name of the sound to be replaced? 2) How do I create an empty sound file? 3) Where do I buy some credits?

Am I right that I don't have to reflash my phone, only replace a single file using their instructions? How about master reset? Will I have to do that (because then all of my settings will be gone anyway...)?

yes gbrooks is right... you can replace original sound with any other sound so you can also replace it with silent sound. I'll test it in next few days and will post result. if anyone wants to try here are the instructions:

http://www.setool.net/write_files.rar

and also look at the support forum on setool site for paths etc.

@vee

I read that file and I know now how to set things up, I just don't know what the camera sound name is... I figure I need the exact name in order to replace it...

AAarghh, stupid me... the name is mentioned above...

@Cyber

@CyberVisitor

hehe, yes i gave you camerashutter.amr above. By the way 1 credit will be deducted for each file written i believe. however you can add more than one file to a script.

no 1 credit will be taken for each action... in script (txt file) you can write any number of sounds, for example fith one credits you can replace all 6 SMS alerts, camera shutter sound, startup and shutdown screen, etc...

Here's what I did: I created a new text file (0 bytes) and renamed it exactly "camerashutter.amr". The icon changed into the expected icon and the file is 0 byte. Will this file do, or does it actually have to contain some recording (I have no software that can fix it).

you need to add this script to the txt doc you created

deletefile:/tpa/preset/system/sound/camerashutter.amr
camerashutter.amr
/tpa/preset/system/sound/camerashutter.amr

and then find an amr file you want.

Because the platform sends bogus messages while charging, that is why!!!..But why this change of heart?..We sense a charger connected, oops, we will not shut down after all!!!..*********************** UI BASIC, HOLD YOUR HORSES

@gbrooks3

What should the name of the text file be that holds the text you mentioned? sms.txt as they write at SETool seems like only for changing message sounds...

I dont think it matters, although i am not sure. Name it camerashutter.txt

then add the script and get the amr file. Best thing is to just test. If it screws up i will just give you some more credits to reflash your phone.

I have one worry about the amr you created. If the phone cant play it, it may kind of crash. But we can test and find out when the servers are up, if your brave enogh of course.

I sent the "empty" amr file I created to my phone to see how it reacted. There's a popup window saying the sound can't be played when I try to play it... I think it will crash the phone if I load it to it's system! Probably need a "real" amr file that is silent.
