>>There's no way to turn off the shutter noise on it,

Use root explorer to find the sound files (sorry I can't remember where they are off the top of my head) rename them or just delete them and restart your phone.

You need make sure you get all the focus/shutter files.

There was at some point a bill to make it illegal for a phone to not make some sort of shutter noise. I can't determine whether it passed (I don't think so), so you may want to be careful about this. This may also explain why you can't turn it off easily - manufacturers would have been responsible for changing it so you couldn't turn it off had the bill passed.

That works for everything but the autofocus sound, I disabled the shutter sound using this method, but the autofocus sound is compiled into the camera application.
