Hi,

I've had my K850i for about a month now, took a bit of getting used to, but I like it its a good phone. Thing thats really bugging me is the shutter sounds they suck! and they are really loud. can you change them? or turn them down like the ringtone volume?

Cheers

You can turn the sound off in the cameras setting menu when in camera mode.

tried turning the volume down, putting the phone in silent mode, none of them make any difference.

In the settings menu, i just have 4 options to choose one of the totally horrible sounds nothing about disabling them or even just to turn the volume of them down

Is your phone branded?

Putting the phone into silent mode kills the all sound inc shutter sound.

In the camera setting menu you can turn off the shutter sound or pic an as you say, naff alternative.

Not sure why you can't disable the sound.

Not for me, still get the shutter sound even in silent.

Also, can't turn off the sounds in the camera menu, can only chose which sound to use.

mmm...

Mine (and my 1st one) are from carphonewarehouse so are un branded. Not sure that would make a difference though.

Another bug ?

as usual (since this comes up with every phone since K700) the ability to turn off camera sound depends wholly on your region (i.e. CDA) and the only way to change that is to reflash the firmware with firmware from a different region using services such as davinci or wotan

Yeah, mines on o2, on my k750i (which was also on 02) you could turn off the shutter sound and it wasn't audible in silent mode.

Still can silence it by start a call (eg voicemail) then take a picture.

Long way round though
