Smart Phone Help

thank c-red, but i made a vow to myself that i will never pay for an app.

did you try using Shush! (free app, basically put phone on silent, and it will restore volume after x minutes) ? or more basic, did you try turning the volume on your phone all the way down, and does the shutter still make the sound.

I am sure you know, but it looks like it's a case where a company is being overly sensitive to privacy concerns of others, rather than the rights of the phone owner who may have valid reasons for not wanting a distraction during the taking of a picture.

now htc just let me know:
"Regarding the shutter sound on you HTC One V, you can mute it by opening your camera and on the “Settings” icon, scroll down to camera interface and tap it, then you will be able to find the “Shutter Sound” checkbox, please tap it to disable it."
BUT
"Regarding the shutter sound on the camera of your HTC Device; you're carrier is able to remove some features of the OS, as they are the last customizing filter before it's pushed to the devices under their network, and this customization it's fully at their discretion, therefore if you're missing a feature, I would advise you to contact them, they will be able to guide you through their policies and terms regarding this matter."

Yeah that's what I was seeing in regards to the legalities issue. Sorry bout that Los.no worries. whenever something like this is one of my biggest fish to fry, i sit back and think "man, my life is rough."

i am so thankful for everything i have

also not thrilled w the speed. the best i've gotten on the mobile network was 0.8 mbps down/up, and that's rare, usually it's closer to 0.15 mbps down/0.3 mbps up (in my home).

i'm on the cheapest home internet plan verizon has, maxing out at 1.0 mbps, so when i have my phone on my wifi, it's in the 0.9 mbps down/up ballpark.

i just checked my connection speed at work (on my laptop, not my phone) and got 91.1 mbps down/ 73.4 mbps up. that's insane, on my phone it was only 12.4 mbps down/up

I got the Samsung Galaxy S3 for Christmas and boy am I loving it. Screen is huge, its faster than that old 3G pos I was using before. Best gift my dad could've gotten me. No issues with it so far. Glad I got this over the iphone. Never really been an Apple fan anyway.

most of the cardio machines at my gym have charging stations... but only the damn apple adapter.

can i get a micro usb up in hurr?

about silencing the camera shutter sound when taking pics...

downloaded silent camera (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=soft.kinoko.SilentCamera), it works, but the max resolution is not good.

i'll keep looking for similar apps in hopes of finding one that gets full use of my 5 mp camera. but at least a can record my neighbor's pets in silence now, at a lower resolution

Did you call the fire department after this picture? I think Fido could use a hand in that tree.

Did you call the fire department after this picture? I think Fido could use a hand in that tree.i couldn't fit it into the frame, but he's got a whole tree house up there. he rarely comes down anymore, they only make him come down when the santa ana winds act up.

now you see why it's so much fun to record his pets?
