1) are all capabilities of the camera still usable?
2) does it freeze the phone often?
3) any adverse effects?04-30-12 12:57 PMLike 0 -
1) NO, no flash and zoom and only one resolution
2) No, no problems so far
3) No!

It's BBM connected
Can auto take photos,
Includes optional delay
Includes optional vibrate when photo taken.
No flash.
You have to zoom in by clicking your BB button.

- And yet another screen-shot app pretends to be a camera mute app. This is just taking a screenshot of your bb display and the resolution of the photo will be the resolution of your bb display. This IS NOT A CAMERA MUTE APPLICATION. This is a screenshot app. There are so many of these fake apps. Someone wake me up when there's an app that can mute the shutter when taking a full resolution photo. They keep jazzing up the UI on these screenshot apps and calling them mute apps. People keep falling for it.James Wang and farmurr like this.04-30-12 03:38 PMLike 2

Devcellent put in the dev time, made a fantastic app, and RIM insisted it be pulled for no reason whatsoever.
Like the overall app situation unfortunately, blame RIM for the lack of options, its their choice.devcellent likes this.04-30-12 05:04 PMLike 1 - There WAS a app called "ShutUp Camera" that was in appworld for the 9900, but I think it was taken down. I would upload the .cods(because I have the app installed on my phone), but the app costed .99cent so it would be pirating if I did so. I don't know why it was taken down.04-30-12 09:03 PMLike 0

This is NOT an issue outside the States and Im not even sure its an issue in the States.
Competing OSes such as Windows Phone and Android allow you to mute the camera app as its 100% legal.
Unfortunately in the States you can carry a gun on you at all times but you can't mute your camera, thats fine, thats their laws.
Its crazy of RIM to apply those laws around the world for no reason whatsoever.
So yeah, this IS something we can blame on RIM, absolutely.Nashstruck and damule6666 like this.05-01-12 05:42 AMLike 2 - 100% WRONG.

For privacy issues alone it is illegal, too many perverts shooting voyeur pics and posting online. A person being photographed needs to acknowledge that a picture was taken of them. RIM is complying with CANADIAN laws and I 10000% agree with this lawOniBerry likes this.05-01-12 08:14 AMLike 1 - Ugh... YOU ARE 100% WRONG! It is illegal here in Canada to have a camera phone with a silenced camera.

This is all ok, but in all the phones that i used in the past years ( Ericsson, Sony-ericsson, Meizu, Nokia ) there was an options to mute the camera, and in the new models there is still this options. The Blackberry Bold 9900 is the first phone in wich you cant set to mute the camera. Also all the Real Camera in the market ( nikkon, Canon, Sony::.etc) dont have a shutter sound if you whant.
So i also think there is something wrong with RIM, and this is only an RIM problem
So all ather phones the are illegal??!!!??
I dont think so!05-02-12 06:09 AMLike 0 - This is all ok, but in all the phones that i used in the past years ( Ericsson, Sony-ericsson, Meizu, Nokia ) there was an options to mute the camera, and in the new models there is still this options.

It does NOT apply in the UK. Hence the other OSes have the feature.
Certain promotions are States and Canada only, we don't get it in the UK, why should we lose functionality because of laws that apply in other countries?
I don't really care what your opinion is, if its illegal ban it, if not offer it.
I object to being treated as a pervert when I have non perv reasons for wanting a silent camera.
Applying Canadian or American law around the world is 1 gajillion percent stupid.05-02-12 07:58 AMLike 4 - Ugh... YOU ARE 100% WRONG! It is illegal here in Canada to have a camera phone with a silenced camera.

Having a loud shutter sound isn't protecting your privacy one bit.
P.S. A photo of the top of your house and a photo of a street view of your house was taken without your acknowledgement and is available to anyone in the world via google maps. I hope you're protesting google about this invasion of privacy.Last edited by spiral_static; 05-02-12 at 03:30 PM.

- Did you know that the Bold 9900 is equipted with a 1280x720 resolution HD video recorder? That's a fairly high resolution recorder. And did you know that it's totally silent when initiated and when in use?

Google taking a photo of your house and some pedophile taking a picture of kids near a swimming pool or some pervert trying to snap some pics of someone they are stalking, are two entirely different things.NCUDS likes this.05-02-12 04:14 PMLike 1 -
We can get pretty ridiculous with these examples, but my point was that the shutter sound isn't protecting your privacy at all. The pedophile can quite easily use a real camera (with no shutter sound) with a telescopic lens from across the street and take pictures of kids in the pool without anyone knowing. Too bad there wasn't a shutter sound to save your kids in this situation, right?
Some of us have real uses for turning the shutter sound off, like taking photos of our notes while in the library at school, or taking photos of the board during a lecture. But we can't do these things without annoying and disrupting the class thanks to people like you who actually think the sound protects their privacy.Last edited by spiral_static; 05-02-12 at 06:17 PM.
damule6666 and NCUDS like this.05-02-12 06:15 PMLike 2 - does the warning for saving bbm's also apply to canadians? wait is it canadiens? ugh sorry guys...anyway...so if you took a picture of a cop and they noticed you had no shutter sound, they could write you a citation? nonsense...tell them how long you've waited for such an app and you don't know how to delete apps...
quite honestly, if you're embarrassing enough for me to take a picture of you, i'm using camera mute to save you from further embarrassment...it's on you bro...
app definitely works though, i use it.Last edited by kaznaaa; 05-02-12 at 07:12 PM. Reason: forgot a sentence.
