[Q] Screenshot Shutter Sound?

I did a brief search but didn't find anything useful. Is there a way to turn off the shutter sound when taking a screenshot?

I read somewhere...Sprint required that the camera sound not be able to be turned off (i dont know if that is true with the screen capture too )...

Turning off your ringtone volume is the only way I can think of (on a stock phone at least.)

You can turn off the shutter sound for the camera on a stock sprint phone... it's in the camera's settings menu. not the screenshot sound though

[Q] How to use quick launch

Hi guys,
As you know, in camera application we have a setting like in the attachment.
How we can use it ? When I start camera application, it won't capture a photo. What do I have to do for using this option ? In 4.2.2, when I start camera from lock screen, it immediately take a picture. But this option was before 4.2.2. There must be another way to use it.
And can you explain, the differences between "Launch and capture" and "Launch only (still camera)" ?
Thanks...
This function is only for lockscreen,launch and capture will launch the camera and take a photo automatically,but launch only will launch the camera without taking a photo.

Optimized backlight

Does anybody knows how to switch of the optimized backlight feature which sony removed in the 4.3 update? They just actually kept it always on and removed the option from the display menu. Can anybody here make that option available again? As its very irritating the screen seems to dim and again get bright dependent on the content on the screen.

I'm bothered by this thing too...
Really want a solution or a MOD to disable that annoying "feature".

That is why. Holly Molly. I never saw that option on 4.2.2 but I saw the screen dim when he wants. Good option to have back.

Any light about this?
This thing makes display looks dull and without contrast...
I just want to disable this feature in lollipop and it's so annoying. I actually flashed 4.2.2 to my phone and disabled optimised backlight on it just to check and it looks perfect. There must be some way to implement it into a kernel or firmware somehow it's such a simple thing, the Z1 is a brilliant phone. That backlight flickering and colours changing on dark colours thing really annoys me and I know I'm not a developer or anything but I'd really love to see some sort of way to disable optimised backlight in lollipop and I'd actually donate to the person that done it if it could happen, that's how much it annoys me.
I know this is an old thread and this was a year ago but I recently got my Z1 back and want to still figure this out for something to do. So far I found out that in .518 and .534 firmware it's called ro.service.cabc.supported=true and persist.service.cabc.enable=1. Setting these to ro.service.cabc.supported=false and persist.service.cabc.enable=0 turns it off just like the setting optimised backlight does. Having the setting on false removes optimised backlight from the options menu while setting enable to 0 disables the feature which is what I want to do. I know I can just unick optimised backlight but the point is to try get it to work on newer firmware.
I tried it on 14.1.G.2.257 and I could get it to show optimised backlight in the options again by setting it to true but toggling it on or off does nothing and also from that firmware onwards setting enable to 0 no longer disables it. I'm assuming pre .257 kernels only had whatever disables it and it was removed after that. I'd like to implement this into a newer kernel and get it to work so I'm just sharing what I've figured out so far if anyone cares that is. I'm still going to keep at it and try figure out more. If anyone does care and knows how it works could it even be possible to get it to work on newer firmware or is it just a waste of time?
EDIT. Also if it doesn't work changing data/property/persist.service.cabc.enable from 1 to 0 with a root explorer enables it on reboot.
EDIT2: Just install white balance before deactivating optimised backlight and you won't get any hang on startup.
EDIT3: OK so it's definitely in the kernel and the only way I can get it to work on newer firmware is to learn how to edit and recompile a kernel.

[Q] Via camera shutter key opening camera in manual mode possible? xposed module?

Hey guys, do you know if there is a xposed module that can open camera straight in manual mode when i use the camera key? i hate that it always opens in superior auto.

I don't think so, I haven't even seen a mod that changes that. Might have to look at older Sony phones to see if someone was able to change that.

Did you try to re-assign the camera button with Xposed Additions?
http://www.addictivetips.com/android/xposed-additions/
With free version you cannot assign Camera action for the Screen Off condition, but with the pro (pay) version you should be able to launch shortcut (maybe Camera shortcut that should maintain camera settings).
You are lookig for "20MP Superioruto"
