I've been on vacation with my new s4 and I've noticed that half of my photos were at 1280x720 resolution on the main cam.
I've noticed it switched when I've accidentally switched to 2mp cam and switched back the resolution never came back to 8M.
Is there anything i can do on the camera app to make it remember proper resolution?

ps. Is there any way to silece the camera "shutter" sound?

I can't replicate your problem with resolution. Either I'm not following same route or it was fixed in MF5 that I'm running.

You can silence shutter sound by turning ringtown volume all the way down (off).

I't doesnt allways happen ill try to find proper steps to replicate this behaviour. As for volume it works as a zoom button and turning volume down prior to launching camera app does not elimitnate shutter of focus sounds .

There might be a solution for shutter sound. :fingers-crossed:Try installing Note 2 (sic) Hidden Settings (it works on my S4 Active i9295). There are many useful settings. One of them is "Add shutter sound menu" which adds item to settings menu in camera to turn it on an off. And there is also "CAMERA SHUTTER SOUND" which directly turns sound on and off.
