LG G2 F320S Camera Shutter Sound & Info About Camera Workings topic




About two months ago I purchased an LG G2 F320S which is really good, except for one thing that's really annoying me: because it's a Korean variant, I'm unable to silence the camera when taking a picture.

I've rooted my phone and tried installing LGCamera.apk from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2670972

Given the poster of the apps seems to have the D802 variant, which I believe gives you the option of silencing the camera when taking a picture, I would have expected that installing this APK to provide me the same option. However, after placing the APK and ODEX files in the priv-app directory and restarting, my camera still has no option to silence it (the same 4 shutter sound options).

I have seen some flashable camera packages posted on here which also contain native libraries, but I don't see how these help because the sound files are contained in the APK (also, I don't have a custom recovery flashed as I nearly bricked the phone permanently the last time I tried - had even managed to mess up download mode). I've previously unzipped the APK and tried to remove or change the sound files, but it looks like the resources are signed in some manifest file so that changing them isn't possible without going through the process of creating a signed package (and I would assume you'd need LG's private key in order to achieve that, rather than being allowed to sign your own). What does flashing the C/C++ native libraries give you?

The most annoying thing is that the shutter sound wouldn't even stop a determined perve, as there are camera apps in the Play Store which just save the screen preview (ie full HD image, in the case of the G2) as a photo without making a sound, so the whole thing is just pointless and annoying.

Can anyone provide me with information or pointers to information on how to get rid of the stupid shutter sound on the F320S variant while being able to take 13 megapixel pictures? I am a C# developer and am not a complete stranger to Linux or Java, so feel free to be technical. Even just some information on why my bundled camera APK will install, but others won't (though some will when you restart the device after placing them in the priv-app folder when the phone does an 'installing update' thing) would be useful to know.

Thanks in advance!
