Hi, sorry if this is posted somewhere else I couldn't find it.

I'm Using CM7.2 It works grate, exept for a strange problem. The phone is inactive next to me but without turning it on not ever touching it, the sound of the camera starting is played.... I turn it on but no program has been launched nothing happened at all.
If any can give me a clue of what can me happening will be apretiated

Is not the sound of the camera but of some internal program which was automatically closed or opened. Don't worry....

Have you tried disabling "Screen lock sounds" in Settings/Sound? That kind of sounds like the camera sound... sorry if I'm totally wrong.
Screen locks sound are disabled. I get the feeling that these sounds appear when I'm in an area with bad wifi coverage, but I'm not quite sure. They appear even when the phone is muted, by the way.

I keep hearing camera sound from my phone too once in a while. I'm on Quarx's 4.1.2 atm. The sound doesn't seem to appear according to a pattern but randomly, and not extremely often. Once when I heard the sound I was curious if it was from the actual camera so I put it next to my ear with the camera to hear the sound better. It was from the camera, like the sound when the protection cover opens or it focuses or something (I'm not good with cameras). It wasn't produced by the speaker, it was a mechanical sound. Hope this helps anyone.

Malware, perhaps? That sound is heard as the camera application is started. Can you hear a fainter sound after the initial sound, the one which is heard as a picture is clicked, the 'focusing' sound

It's the same sound effect that appears when opening the camera, not the "focusing" sound or the sound when taking a picture.

Maybe Skype?

I read in CM11 thread that this kind of sound was caused by Skype. Have u installed skype? If so, uninstall it and use the mobile for one day to see if the problem gets solved.
