This is usually just a trivia, but in these cases it’s informative on what length makers feel obligated to go to protect that shutter sound part. Which is, not much in general.
If you use a foreign SIM card it won’t follow that rule, same for some of the capture modes, etc.
- zinekeller 5y agoNote: India actually has a law over this which is (to emphasise how serious the law is) even coded into AOSP (not on the camera app itself), where it won't allow you to silence the shutter if either you're roaming inside India (regardless of the origin of your SIM card) or you have an Indian SIM card (regardless of where you are roaming). I can't remind a similar law on any East Asian country though.
- dheerajvs 5y agoHuh? There's no such law. I have turned off the shutter sound option in every single phone I've purchased here in India so far.
- sumedh 5y agoI have use multiple phones with Indian sim card with no shutter sound.
- vageli 5y agoI searched around in the AOSP source code but nothing jumped out. Can you link to the code?
