===Camera Sound===
In /usr/share/sounds the files camera_snd_title_1, 2 and 3 (1 is the camera shutter sound, 2 is the video recording sound and 3 is the focus sound) just replace them with any working wav sound file OR for a SILENT CAMERA just rename or delete these files! <ref name="camsnd">[http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=462484 Silent Camera Hack ]</ref>
