There is a guide online to edit the local.prop file to not force a camera sound, but, ****, we're not rooted so we can't use it. Anyone!?
Update 09/18: Thanks to the amazing zedomax and his root method, you can create a file called "local.prop" on your phone under the /data/ directory and place the code "ro.camera.sound.forced=0" without the quotes in it and reboot and be good to go. In other words:
1. Create a file called local.prop on your device in /data/.
2. Place the line of code ro.camera.sound.forced=0 in the file local.prop and hit Save.
3. Make sure it's in the /data/ folder.
4. Reboot.
5. Enjoy not having that ****ing shotgun blast in your ear every time you want to snap a photo.
Want to revert to stock? Change the code in the file to ro.camera.sound.forced=1.

wait for root...I imagine it won't take too long.
btw, has anyone tried the SGS2 rooting methods yet?
But... It's too damn annoying. And the stock messaging app is so childish
Some have indicated that on the latest camera update for the SGSII, putting the phone on silent or vibrate disables camera sounds. Does this work on the E4GT out of the box?
Its loud as ****!! Sounds like a pistol going off lol

wow, lol, I can't wait to try it. charging while off as we speak. this is torture.
I think this is done to comply with Korean and Japanese law that digital camera must have audible sounds to prevent voyeurs from secretly taking pictures. They have tossed this idea around in the States.

Yeah, it is built into the Camera.apk. You have to delete the sound file which can only be done by rooting it.
this is annoying... why do phone makers force this on us?
Seriously... if I wanted to take inappropriate photos, I would make sure to go out of my way to get a camera that had no shutter noise.
This accomplishes nothing but is extremely annoying.
What I was getting at was that instead of having multiple camera apps per country, they just have one universal apk that follows Korean law.

anybody know why?
Maybe they have an update guideline.. or improper flagging.. or pulled by request of the person who made it. I've emailed the dev in the past, 0 feedback, perhaps he removed it to release a better version, or perhaps was insulted/furious in the fact that there's other apps that provide the same functions, and even copied his apk icon, recoloring it to avoid copyrights.

Shootme Alternatives?
Does anyone know of any good alternatives to Shootme?
I have v0.8.1 on my phone, but for some reason its not working.
Actually, its kinda weird. It worked perfectly fine on my Evo running Froyo before I rooted. Then I rooted a couple weeks ago and flashed CM7.1. Now its saying "Failed to start server. Please check that you have ROOT access...blah blah blah," even though I've granted it Superuser permission. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and the like. I know CM7 has built-in screenshot feature, but Shootme is a lot easier when taking multiple/quick screenshots. Anyone have any suggestions of how to fix this, or know of any good alternatives?

Sent from my Samsung Legen-wait for it-dary! 4g
Can someone mod shootme so that we can get a better framerate on the screencast feature. Just to let you know a Dev already did this but his modded apk is no longer available in his thread( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925270 ). Also know that the higher the framerate, the crappier the quality of video. Here are the steps if anyone can do it:
just decompile the app with ApkManager or other and ajust the values in /res/values/array.xml
I would do it myself but I don't have good luck with ApkManager
if some one can do whatever they can do for it no to check for root or let me past the root block i will donate i really hope some one will help with this

You can also use SuperSU in place of the superuser app and it will do the same thing. (Hides root/temp unroot)
If you think about it, there is usually a reason that an App would specify unrooted only. Rooted basically equals nowhere as secure as nonrooted. So not too surprising a banking app is paranoid about security.

Go into the supersu settings. Uncheck enable super users. Then the app will work. Renable it when you need root

Yeah this makes about as much sense as Hulu only letting certain shows on its apps and forcing you to go to the web for the full catalog.
Even the cheap $350 laptops have HDMI out now, so you can just plug in your laptop and bam, there you go. I have one that the screen went out so it's just constantly plugged into HDMI so I can browse from my TV.
But yeah, back to the original point, your bank is retarded. Not allowing a rooted phone to use it makes no difference in overall security.
Well thanks guys I figured how it all works and yes my bank is retarded but hell they all are I hate banks

Flash the .zip in CWM.
Once you are done, then go to twitter or something and click a link and hit "Popup window" then you can use Multi view.

That's pop up browser not multi view, their is no need to flash the .zip for that. Also flashing the .zip does nothing you have to manually place the files yourself.

Not so great here either. Android system usage is very high when the screen is off.
This is like when I was running the LI8 Jellybean leak, although since this is a port, the reasons for high android system usage while screen off could very well have different causes I guess, but the symptom is the same.
