It is non-permanent and you can pull the glue off when you want the sound again. Title: Re: a few photos of how to make the s-3 beep less annoying. Post by: Xian01 on July 19, 2014, 09:02:40 PM You are a saint. Thanks for this thread. Will mod a bunch of 'em tonight.

Post by: pidge on July 26, 2014, 10:54:42 AM I've not heard a beep out of mine (with the M3 screw in the hole). And yes, I'm thinking about popping the lid an securing the screw in place with some tape.

Post by: vulcanology on October 22, 2014, 10:17:16 AM FWIW, the new S3 firmware makes the units completely silent via the menu option now. I have S3 firmware from September 2014, but that just reduces the beeping when set to false. When the internet connection drops, it still beeps. Is there another setting I should be looking at? If it beeps at night and wakes my family, the S3 will be out of the house the next morning. Such a bad design. Thanks! |
