CX65 shutter sound in FW12

[keaven]

How do i remove shutter sound in FW12?
the old method doesnt work anymore. thanks!

[BlueEye]

Unlock the other parts (config and chache) of your cell with the OD-tool and delete or modify the volume of 'CameraClickMelody.wav'.

[oakdesign]

@ keaven you got a private message at club-siemens from me

[Wert]

Just to resume how can shutter sound be removed in FW12.
1. Install the OD tool http://wert.warezbg.com/Siemens%20CX65/PC%20Software%20inst/od.rar
2. Use it to open the hidden directories (config and chache)
3. Use any PC-phone explorer (MPM, DES, SiMoCo) to delete or modify the volume of 'CameraClickMelody.wav'.
4. Enjoy silent shooting :lol:

PS: Sorry, BlueEye, for the copy and paste operations over your post. I just wanted to summarise the information :wink:

[keaven]

wow! thanks guys!! i really appreciate it!! :o

where can i get the OD-tool?

wert:the link you provided is not working... :?

[oakdesign]

Ok here how to disable camera sound after updating to fw 12

1. download od tool http://download.siemens-club.ru/files/x65/od.rar
2. unzip od tool to your hard disk
3. connect phone with pc
4. start od tool set your com port
5. click on do it
6. you get a message window DONE! Click ok

now you have acess to two additional folder in your flexmem config and cache

if you want to change something in your phone and you have shut down your phone you have to start od tool once again.

So now how to disable camera sound

Browse your flexmem
YOU HAVE TO ENABLE IN THE WINDOWS EXPLORER EXTRAS->FOLDER OPTIONS->VIEW->SHOW ALL FILES AND FOLDERS
7. got to the folder Config/Default there you find the CameraClickMelody.wav
8. delete or rename this file and the camera sound is gone or you can even replace it with another sound if you want to

Should I use a SERIAL cable (e.g. DCA-500) to do that or can I do it with the DCA-540 USB cable I own?

Thanks for reply.

[BlueEye]

You can do that with both cables. :)

[LordS]

You can do that with both cables. :)

Now I'll try it just to see that file!
And soon I'm gonna buy a serial cable to switch to Firmware version 12 ^____^

Thank you guys!

Keep up with this excellent forum!

:D

[goran_the_man]

I also can do it with my M65..Thanks.

[dinc]

Does anyone know how to to this with IrDA?
Seem to me that OD doesn't work with IrDA.

[LordS]

I think you can do the firmware upgrade only with the DCA-500 cable or DCA-510 or similar....

[oakdesign]

the od tool works with irda I done it with my laptop or do you use a irda serial adapter?

[dinc]

ok, i've got a laptop with built-in irda. irmon running to enable application support on com4. should i turn it off to make od work?

[dinc]

I hope I got the right version of OD? 0.2?

[oakdesign]

there is only one version of od tool

[desmoboy]

Sorry Guys am I being thick, but the od tool I am downloading isn`t a zip file but a rar file :?:

[desmoboy]

Problem sorted, download WinRAR

Got my serial cable now, done all steps oakdesign wrote up to 7 on SW12, but can`t see the "Config/Default " folder(have enabled hidden folders in explorer)?? any advice as to what I am doing wrong.

what software are you using to sync your phone with your pc?

[desmoboy]

Using MPM that came with the S65

[88raymond]

with mpm installed, there should be a phone explorer on your desktop. click on that after you get "done" with the od tool... as soon as the telephone is recognized, config and cache should be shown in phone explorer, along with data...

[desmoboy]

Tried this with two different computers to see if it was a hardware issue, but still only see \Data and \MMCard folders within phone explorer

[88raymond]

try each of the following:
--- a reboot of the phone
--- a change in the baud rate to 38400
--- use of a laptop (or another computer)

... that's what the s65 users at club-siemens said worked for them when they experienced the same thing you described.

good luck.

btw, you can try to post at the s65 english forum section, you might get lucky :wink:

Can somebody tell me how it is possible to use OD tool with an USB data cable? In the program i only have two functions which is COM1 and COM2. Can anybody tell me how i can use the program with an USB data cable?

[US15]

you need a USB-Cable which simulates the COM-Port. The Original DCA-500 or DCA-510 does this. If you have a DCA-540 the OD-Tool won't work, because it's only a USB- Cable witout a COM-Port

[Pioneer]

But if you install the "USB-to-Serial Comm Port"-Driver and then use the DCA-540, OD-Tool will work ^^

Edit: this driver you can get from here (http://www.ksl.mediendesign.eduhi.at/2001/radner/USB-to-Serial.zip)

[US15]

works the FW-Update Tool with this driver too?

[Pioneer]

nein das update funktioniert leider nicht mit dem 540er

und auf englisch: no, the update doesn´t work with the DCA-540 ;o)

[Sir Drinks-a-lot]

I am using a DCA-510 cable. I have used the USB to serial tool and i have used OD tool to find the hidden directories, but i cannot find them. What am i doing wrong?

[tux72]

I've the same problem, I use an unofficial USB-to-Serial cable, I've update firmware without problems and I can connect with phone using MPM.
When I launch OD-Tools (v.0.2) the program says "Done!" but in Phone Explorer I don't see the "Config" or "Cache" directories.
The settings in Explorer are ok but in the browser I only see an hidden directory called "System", no "Config" or "Cache".
Ideas? :-s

The directories "Cache" and "Config" are on the same level as "Data". The directory "System" is a lower directory in "Data".
Use OD Tool with your mobile connected but before starting PhoneExplorer.

[tux72]

Thx for your answer,
I try your suggest without success.
I launch Od-tools -> "Done!" :D
Then I start MPM -> Phone Explorer -> I see directory called "Data" but no hidden directories at "Data" level. :(
:?: :cry: :?:

[tux72]

There's another strange thing:
If I don't use Od-tools before MPM I'm not able to connect to the mobile.
MPM works only after Od-tools but in Phone Explorer I dont see "Config" or "Cache" dir.
If I don't use Od-tools, MPM never detects the phone.
My firmware is V12, I use WinXP with SP1 and a USB-to-Serial cable.

[hilmi01]

I had the same problem. I solved it by booting my PC with the CX65 connected (I use a DCA-510 cable). MPM detects the mobile after about 30 seconds.

[arrowz]

maybe you should try this:
i'm using infrared for ODtool and it working fine.
and
i'm using Siemens Data Exchange Software 2.6.7, not MPM.

[clie610]

Maybe it was because your windows explorer still using default setting. Try to open windows explorer, go to tools --> folder options -->view, and make sure the "show hidden files and folders" selected....good luck!

[Dark Archon]

Hi!

Now I have FW16. The method by oakdesign didn't worked at FW12 neither. When I open the phone with OD and click OK, I can't see any new folder by MPM, even so I allowed "show hidden files" in folder properties. The SiMoCo can't see the Config and Cache folder neither, but it can see a new folder, called System. But I can't disable the shutter sound in that folder.
What's wrong? I use DCA-510 cable and hungarian Pannon GSM phone.
Please help! Thnx

D.A.

[Dark Archon]

Ok, problem resolved. :)

[The Dane]

Ok, problem resolved. :)

What was the problem??? I'll might suffer from the same...

I also use infrareds. But when i run odtool, it shows
error, unplug and plug cabel then try again.
What the hell is the problem?!
