  1. Souljacker – I found the answer (unfortunately, in a way). “Samsung eschews the default Gingerbread camera app for its own effort” – via http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/28/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-review

    So it looks like Samsung put their own camera app in that phone rather than the default Android Gingerbread camera. If you have the volume all the way down, does it still make a noise when you take a picture? I’ve noticed w/ my Android Tablet there’s no option to disable the camera sound, but if you mute the entire Tablet, it doesn’t make the ‘click’ when you take a picture.
