How To Disable Camera Sound On Your Nokia
I am sure all of you at some point or the other have wanted to turn of the camera/shutter sound while taking pictures or videos for a variety of reasons. While on a handful of product codes you can simply turn of the ‘Warning Tones’ from the profiles menu to silence the camera tone, on most handsets that tip doesn’t work.
Enter this exceedingly small patch (under 1KB) that you can install to get rid of the annoying sound. There is no need to ‘hack’ your phone for this to work.
- Sign it using open signed or with your own certificate. (Here’s how to get a certificate and then sign the application on the phone).
- Install it and turn off the ‘Warning tones’ from the profiles menu. (If the warning tones are already set to off, then turn them on and then off).
- If the camera sound is still not off, restart the phone once.
I have tested it on my N97 and E75, but the patch should work on other devices too. Enjoy.

Don’t suppose you know a way to disable the video recording light, the red one when its recording.
This long awaited feature works on my E71.
This works…or you can just turn the phone to the “silent” profile………………..
Sadly, like I said, thats true only for a few product codes.
Thanks so much for this, it works on my 5800

Hmmm. this doesnt work for asian product codes.
What is so needed is the same thing to disable the flashing white light & the red one that blinks when taking a photo or when it’s recording video!!? Who know where to get that???!
Awesome write up, as soon as I get my cert i’ll be doing this to my E63. One other thing though, How does one get rid of the annoying white LED light that stays on when making a video?
Worked like a charm on an N82 bought in the US, thanks! I signed the app via Open Signed, it took only a couple of minutes.
Yeah.. it works on my E66.. no more silly sound on camera…

anyone knows how to get rid of the irritating flash/signal light when the camera shoots?
thanks
not workin on N97
It work’s on Nokia 6220 Classic, thant you my friend
(I’m from Lithuaania- Baltic country-Europe)
Awesome!! Thanks alot man. Works on n86 (Malaysia)
E71 user: I got the mute-camera.sis from symbian website, received an email 2 hrs later to confirm my intention to let them sign it, i gave them my phones serial number (the *#06# thing) and received another email with the download link to the signed mute-camera.sis file. Then…
… I simply used Nokia PC Suite and dragged and dropped that .sis file to the phone, it confiemrd to be installed, accepted, good…
… but the shutter still made noise, even re-start the phone, going to silent mode, switch warning tone on and off, – it still made noise…
Back to PC Suite again: do not use the drag and drop function but go to “install applications”, go to the folder where you stored the signed mute-camera.sis file, select it, click on the arrow to start installation, the phone will ask you “install application?…” and tell it “continue”. It installed quickly, no troubles, I tried, and it worked in general mode with warning tones off. To test it I turned warning tones on and it made noise again, turned warning tones off and the shutter shut up again
summary: I’m a happy owner of a “quite cam E71″ since ten minutes and want to let you know about it. Special thanks to Symbian but this talking about three whatever zip files is confusing people, just tell others to let them get the .sis file signed by you, everything is fine…
Hi,
Pls let me know the link from which i can download the mute-camrea.sis file. Bcos, i too hv a e63, d camera sound annoys me. Pls dude!!
Cheers!
PRS
Working on E55, thanks a lot… been searching for smth like this for ages…
Thanks again
Works on my E52, however I had to restart it first! Thx
On my E55 work perfect !
Gr8 stuff mate, thanks.
COOL! it works on my nokia E52!! thank you very much!
Works on 6730c like a charm. Needed a restart before it would work. Thanks a million for this.
Not needed on my n97. Can be disabled through warning tones “off” setting.
thanks man ! it worked. i got it signed 4m symbian signed page. its much simpler(and in english !).
The red light is annoying while taking close-up. It make everything red. I found a patch call “ccam” which can disable both the shutter sound and the red light but only for old model nokia phone. It does not work for N97! We hope that some white knight will appear to solve this problem shortly ! As I always take picture for small object. The red light make every picture with red tone. I hate the red light!
Succesfully disabled! I’ve never had any phone with the ability to turn off the camera sound since N70. Now to turn the red recording light. Anyone know how?
Works perfect on my N82,tnx a lot dude…Cheers…!!!
Sooooo Coooool!!!!!
Works on my N86 8MP man!!!!
THX a BUNCH!!!

thanks..

The trick works on my Nokia5530 after restarting it. Sweet!
Well, here’s my question: Before installation, there is a warning message saying “The application is for developmental use. Resume its installation might harm your phone”. I didn’t memorise the exact words but more or less those were the key words.
So, is it really harmful?
I can’t install this app. It says that the certificate is invalid, has expired. I just signed the app now using symbian opensign.
help!
my phone is E72
Thanks man, it works on my 6730 Classic ^^

E52 – Working. Thanks.
Thank you so very much!!!
it worked on my E71!
I couldnt sign that. can anyone help me to sign this.
thanks
it worked on my e63, but not by disabling warning tones. i had to put the phone on silent mode to disable the shutter sound.
but either way, i am glad the annoying click is finally shut up! Thank you!
Nokia E66: If you get message like certificate error then the problem can be in your time zone. In my case site http://www.symbiansigned.com signed application one hour before my current time so I couldn’t install. Solution was simple, I just changed time on my phone, installed application and changed time back. FYI my time zone is GMT+1. Good luck
thanks it works for 5530
thanks it works for 5530

Works fine on E 72 too..thnxs man
amazing it works on my Nokia 5730 xpressmusic..
but, how to return it back to normal the camera sounds?
It doesn’t work, it said somethin about the certificate, HELP MEEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very odd! I downloaded the patch and got the signed version from ‘Open Signed Online’ for my E71. It worked fine and installed without problem on my E71.
An hour later, i tried to sign it again for my N97 and the Open Signed gives me this message;
FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID that is not in the protected or test range (0x10202be9). Open Signed Online only accepts UIDs from the ranges 0x2xxxxxxx and 0xExxxxxxx
Thinking there might be a problem with the IMEI, i tried my earlier successful E71 IMEI with the same sis file that worked previously, yet the site produced the same failure message!
Has the patch changed? Is the Open Signed site usually tempermental?
i tried to get a cert from open signed, it said:
Open Signed Online
FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID that is not in the protected or test range (0x10202be9). Open Signed Online only accepts UIDs from the ranges 0x2xxxxxxx and 0xExxxxxxx.
so what should i do?
pls tell fast
Symbian signed didn’t send an email to me. HELP! ):
Same Open Signed Online-error here. Worked a few ago:
FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID that is not in the protected or test range (0×10202be9). Open Signed Online only accepts UIDs from the ranges 0×2xxxxxxx and 0xExxxxxxx.
Any ideas ?

FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID that is not in the protected or test range (0x10202be9). Open Signed Online only accepts UIDs from the ranges 0x2xxxxxxx and 0xExxxxxxx
Ur the BEST …. after hacking my n86… it works !! million thanks
Works on E72-2. Thanks a lot.
just to confirm that it works on Nokia 6730 classic (vodafone) like charm ! thanks for posting !
to those of you who went to symbiansigned and got the ‘FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID…’ notice, try going to opda to get the cert, and upload the file using a different browser. I was using Mozilla and kept having problems getting it signed (both symbiansigned and opda), but once I switched to IE it worked.
Gr8 it works dude
For those having trouble signing the file, goto this alternative site:
Access this website, and register an account:
http://cer.opda.cn/en/index.php?module=index
Follow the indications for registering, there shouldn’t be any problems here.
After registering and confirming registration, login and go in “My certificate”. Register a new certificate, with “Apply cer”.
Fill in the gaps. This is how i did it as example:
Model: E71
Remark: Granknights′s E71
IMEI: (obtained by *#06#)
Confirm: now you have to wait until the certificate gets approved. I don’t know how long it takes, because after submitting i went to sleep. However, the second time i checked, 14 hours later, the certificate was ready.
Go in “Signing Softs”, then scroll to “>>Upload the software which need to be signed”.
Upload the file. As soon as you’ve uploaded it it will get signed, and you can download it immediately. Send the file to your E71 and install it. If you did all the steps correctly it will work, as it did for me.
great! works perfectly on my n97mini both with camera and video !!!
Hi,
have followed what E71 in USA did…
do you still need the .cer & .key from opda site? aft gettin the signed document?
I’ve uploaded my signed document into my hp and install, thr’s still the sound.
As from symbianblog nxt “freesigner” is getting the document signed in hp itself. Do I still need to do this step?
got it signed and everything. did warning tones, off-on-off again. switched off my e63 zillion times aft installation. the tone still sound.
thanx man, on E52 it works
)))))
thank you so much!!!!
really easy and works on my E71…
how to use the open signed guys?? pls help me.. what application and email should i put on open signed???
I have a e52 but it didn’t work
It works on my Nokia 5800! Thanks a lot!
Open signed refuses to sign it. If your’e going to the trouble to program it, is it really that much more trouble to get is properly signed? Post decent software or just don’t bother with this websh*t.
THIS DOES NOT WORK .. HAS BEEN POSTED ON OTHER SITES
JEEZ PROGRAMMERS ARE SO SCARED THEY HAVE TO MAKE “UNSIGNED” APPLICATIONS
RATHER THAN SIGNED APPLICATIONS
I GUESS THIS IS DUE TO THE “LAWS” OF THE SO CALLED “U.S.” GOVERNMENT
JUST LIKE THE FACT THAT THE 5800 AUDIO IS ALSO RESTRICTED
DUE TO E.U REGULATIONS
DAMN IT I HATE NOKIA
FUCK NOKIA
FUCK ALL THE NOKIA HANDSETS
im just gonna buy a simple mp3 player for now and a SERIOUS 15 MP DIGITAL CAMERA
O DID I FORGET ???? FUCK NOKIA :@
yea admins can remove my comment
atleast someone will read the truth :@ _|_
I have managed to sign it and sent it to my phone (n86). The installation was done as well. However, when I took a photo the sound still came on. ):
Help..

Got the below error when i tried to sign the .sis file using Open Signed website,
FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID that is not in the protected or test range (0x10202be9). Open Signed Online only accepts UIDs from the ranges 0x2xxxxxxx and 0xExxxxxxx.
any ideas how to overcome this?
i would like to avoid the hassle of getting my own certificate
Dear Madam / Sir
I tried the same way but following message is displayed at symbian page:
FAILURE: Submitted .sis file uses a UID that is not in the protected or test range (0x10202be9). Open Signed Online only accepts UIDs from the ranges 0x2xxxxxxx and 0xExxxxxxx.
Please help
Thanx,,,, Work with my E72-1 SW: 031.023 (Made in China)

thanks a ton sir..!! it worked perfectly on my N79….love you for this..godspeed…
Thanks for sharing. Worked for me on Nokia N95 8GB
WHY DOES IT SAY the .sis file is not protected or something? HELP PLOX
nice thx
Can’t sign this app, opensigned says that UID is not in range. Any ideas?
SWEEEET! nice one. Installed on 5230 firmware 210004 if i remember correctly. Signed by Imobilehelper (learn chinese or google) which i advise to all. Installed via ovi, warned not for this moby and warned a couple of other things but i allowed etc. Works with warnings off. PERFECT! I have CFWed and cooked a few times but never been happy. Much better to just patch things you want done but leave the Nokia fw as much as possible Nockiafied
To Umar, a few posts up. Calm down dear. You are the problem. You could not use the software/hardware/patch. It is your problem. You. hahahaha. Nice
