Just as a point of reference, with my N95 and the U.S. firmware, I could not silence the shutter sound. With the Euro firmware (after changing the product code and reflashing) I *could* silence the shutter noise.

The same goes for my wife's N86 NAM. I can't shut up the shutter. In silent mode or not it'll make the click.
OK, I created a wave file PCM 24 bit 16k mono (but I did it on my PC with an open mic).... turned out to be noisy but I replaced the files /usr/share/sounds/camera_snd_title_x.wav (x being a 1,2 & 3) with my file - named the same - and those were the files that played.... alas, at full volume. I am going to make some nice quiet sound files that are clean and crisp, perhaps in different volumes, and post them for use... but don't know when I will get to it, though. Sorry for the giant run-on sentence here... Oh, and you must be root to do this.
excellent information guys. I dont mind having my camera make noise when i take pics I just want it to be a little less loud. Edited the sound files using audacity, saved the original files (never know but i might need them), and then replaced originals with my modified version. Camera works like a charm and the sound is much less annoying now
