Need help with disabling shutter sound

Hello all,
Can someone point me on how to disable annoying shutter sound for camera? Tried deleting the shutter.ogg file, but no success. I'm on Dr. Ketan ROM and in ROM control, there is Screenshot sound off, tried that, but no success either.
Note 9 has different CSC partition and I can't activate cscfeatures.
Please.

I have no root to use this

Works o both Note 8 and 9 fine

Another work around is put the phone on silent, then open the camera app and voila.

Depends on the region/country. For most (like my AT&T version and your Verizon), it is in the camera settings at the bottom. But there are some countries (I believe Japan was the 1st) that does not allow the shutter sound to be disabled.

I have dr. Ketan ROM and there is no Shutter Sound in camera app. Is there a way but not with system sound off, I need notifications?
I would like not to try any app because an app installs a service and I do not want to.

Not an option for me, US Cellular

I have downloaded Open Camera which has Shutter sound off, it's a workaround, but it's not original camera that is better.

This is the easiest way.
I don't use system sounds. I prefer my device to be as silent as possible. If I want to hear fake computer noises I can watch a movie.

In pie its there for everyone

I just use the Macrodroid app, I set it up that when I launch the camera it's turns off the system sound and then when I exit the camera it turn the system sound back on.
You can get it in the Play Store, just click above on Macrodroid.

How to turn off shutter sound on camera
On your sound " system " slide to off

You can download Silent Mode Pro app from the play store to silent the camera shutter.

I did exactly same work Autoroid app. Works fine until I switch to Gallery app from the camera then it does not detect exiting camera to re-enable system sound

Routines (part of GoodLock) or Tasker does the job for me. Switching mute<->sounds if camera is running. Routines has some bug and sometimes lowers ringtone volume to 1 (min. volume) so there's a risk of not hearing phone calls. I stopped using Routines and went back to Tasker where I already have several other tasks.
Routines are still good for maintaining some Samsung specific tasks (playing with blue light filter, power saver, and some automatizations).

Install vanced-YouTube from the above link. From inside the app go in settings/vanced settings scroll all the way down and keep clicking on the writing underneath "About" for 7 to 10 times, now click on "codec overwrite" on the top and select VP9 Codec, go one step back and click on video settings, check "Resolution checks", go on "Preferred Video quality wifi" and click on 2160, viola, your YouTube will play in 4K now. But keep in mind, in my opinion, don't enable 4K on mobile data connection cos it will drain your data very quickly. In "Layout Settings" enable new action bar and dynamic player. In "Misc" enable "ExoPlayer V2". You can also select theme, black or white or a mixture in layout settings. Hope this helps, cheers.

I have a chinese unrooted phone and have youtube vanced installed.
All resolutions works

Thank you for your help! I'll try it out, it's useful if you zoom in the video (I guess)

record a video - record button is grayed out

Most of the time when I switch from Photo to Video, the record button is grayed out and I can't make a video. (rear camera). Closing the app doesn't help. Only restart fixes the issue and hour later it's back.

Do you use Instagram? If so disable camera permission for Instagram. If you don't have that, try the same thing with any apps you installed that uses the camera.

Can't hurt, it was a known problem with Instagram but maybe another app could cause it.

Video Camera Failed - Ten Cent (Flashed WW)

Hey guys,
Anyone know why my video recording feature isn't working?
Can take photos fine. Just any of the camera recording stuff just says failed.
Thanks

You have to factory wipe, not sign in to anything when you're first setting up your phone, no Fingerprint, no Google, nothing and when you make it to the home screen, then you can sign in and everything will work as intended. Or use Google camera. Just easier to wipe though.

After skipping all the setup like this, how do you then restore all your apps, settings, etc from another device like you can during setup?

Actually this the problem with Google app... Just uninstall update of Google app to factory version... Check your video recording... If it works then install previous version of google app.. 2 or 3 version before is a good one i think. Recheck your video recording after.

Nope it's actually caused by the voice search function. Just disable voice match setting and video recording works again.

If you want to keep voice recognition on, you can also just install a 3rd party app like open camera.

Same issue, installed OpenCamera and everything works fine. Stock camera app has a big red capture button that when pressed causes a video recording error.

Do you retain features like slo-mo video, portrait mode, etc with OpenCamera (or any 3rd party camera)?

All features in OpenCamera work as far as I can tell.

I just tested OpenCamera, and you lose a lot of functionality by using it instead of the stock camera. To name a few things you lose:
1. You lose the wide angle camera
2. You lose the 48mp option on standard camera
3. You lose slo-mo video
4. You lose portrait photo mode

I tried installing the Pixelmaster apk from Open APK and the install fails. My guess is that is has something to do with the microphone. Still troubleshooting..

install the original ROM?

Question Black level of youtube videos

Hi all, i just tried my tab S8 and when playing videos on youtube app, the black level of video is good. But when i press any button on the keyboard cover, the black level on the videos changed become more grey/ white. I have to close the video, and reopen the video to have normal black level on the video again. Anyone know what happened and how to resolve it? Many thanks

I have this EXACT SAME ISSUE, but with the Sling app on my tab S8+. Whenever I open the app and start a video stream, the picture looks greyed out. I have to hit the home button to minimize the picture, which forces the app to resize the video without stopping the stream. That clears it up. Then I can maximize the video for full screen and there is no problem. However anytime I stop the video stream for whatever reason, like for example to resize the window or change the channel, the video opens up greyed out again and I have to go through this entire process all over again. I have not been able to find a solution to this problem. Don't mean to thread jack but I believe that the problem the OP has with the you tube black levels is exactly what is happening in the sling app. So perhaps whatever fix someone has for the OP's issue can be applied to my issue. Thanks.

I just checked that using usb keyboard and looks like this is an app interface bug. The app uses keyboard to navigate through interface. When you press a button it greys out element that is currently chosen. Apparently video player window is one big element, that's why it is being greyed out.
P.s. looks like it is possible to fix that by minimizing video player and pressing arrow keys

I haven't tried yet on the Tab S8 but on the Tab S6 I had the exact same thing happen when using an external BT keyboard / mouse combo, so I would assume this is some kind of Youtube app bug. I think you can also exit out of the video so it goes popup and go back in. I was using Youtube Vanced now that I think about it.
