Are cell phones making it impossible to turn the camera shutter sound off? I just bought one and couldn't turn it off until I found a hack. I don't get it. Who would want a loud sound every time you take a pic?

These features are being added in many countries to protect the privacy of unsuspecting individuals. You might be surprised to know that some countries have a forced flash as mandatory on mobile phones.

dont know who would want that and i agree it is pretty lame

Mine is like that, too! I see the reasoning, of course, but it's annoying. Is it possible for you to change the sound? That's what I did. Now it's slightly less, albeit still there, annoying.

i think it depends on the fone.. :/ u can shut the shutter off in nokia fones if u feel like it..
-
yes it is possible but most of them are encrypted in the phone, just like the nextel chirp you cant change it yet until they find out how to unencrypt it...

that would be really annoying

I think so. The only way I can switch it off now is if I put my phone on silent-mode. When camera phones first came out they had a range of shutter-sounds you could pick.

The loud camera sound on a cell phone is extremely annoying.

search google and you will probably find a hack

These have been made mandatory in many cases because people were doing things like taking up-skirt shots and locker-room shots. The cellphone is so ubiquitous that you cannot stop people taking them, but they can be very intrusive.
