Hi there, just curious if this can be done on the SGS. It would really come in handy when the phone is in the pocket, just hit the volume rocker or SHAKE the phone to skip a track. That's awesome isn't it. Any app that can do that?
There is an app called Shake2PlayNext in the market for free, as well as others.. I tried it once but it's too difficult to calibrate when you walk with you phone in your pocket..
I don't know if the same could be done for the volume keys, I think you need a mod for that. I could be interesting though

Hi, I recently found an album in my gallery with 4 screenshots of my homepage. I must've took them without noticing. So I would like to know how I did that. My HTC Desire HD is running on 2.3.5 with htc sense 3.0. It is also NOT rooted and I did not flash any roms. So if anyone could tell me the shortcut to take a screenshot, I'd appreciate it very much! THANKS IN ADVANCE!
thought this wouldnt be possible without root or special apps("No Root Screenshot it")...
on my rooted phone i just press "power-button+home soft-key" to make a screen shot.
oh. that's cool. Did you use an app for that? Because I have a rooted htc incredible s and I usually need to long press my search button and choose ( screen grabber ( an app from market ) ) and it'll take a screenshot..
There are many apps available in the market to do this, and in some rom's it is included (MIUI for example).

It is a new feature on the new DHD stock ROM with sense 3.0. DHD owners can now take scrrenshots by holding the power button and the home key at teh same time.
On the ICS beta roms floating around for Desire HD, you can just hold the power + volume down key and a screenshot will be taken.
When i try to press the power button and home button at same time..it does not take a screenshot.....am i missing something here..
BTW..i have coredriod rom installed..

Well I found the solution...nothing to do with rom,just press the power key and before the power menu pops up press the home key....just posted to help others..

I use Screecast Video Recorder. It records video and you can also take screenshots by long-pressing the search button.
It does exactly what it says.
There is a free (demo) version if you don't want to pay for it.
However you need to be rooted for this one.
I hope this is what you're looking for..

whoa... had ARHD 6.3.1 for about a month now and I never knew you can take screenshots just by doing that
I use the Screecast Demo to generate a video record, but it was taken with a short duration, Can you help me to increase the duration of my Demo?
thanks dada!!!
dada means in persian brother!!!
Love the screen capture feature ,,, I use it alot ..
BUT I wish you could turn off the camera snap sound, as it looks suspicious if you're making a screen capture in public, like on the train, people will think you're taking photo's of them
Anyone kno how to turn off the sound ?
I think it still comes up even with media/phone volume muted
Hi,
If enough people will want this app Tigger31337(WildChild ROM) said he would look in to it..
Please post a reply if you're interested.
Tnx!

That would be awesome. Having to touch the screen actually makes it a little harder to snap a quick picture.
That would be great!
Yes i want it too

So, now that the WildChild Sense is 99.9% finished (look for it soon) I promise to give this some attention.
Off the top of my head, it seems trivial to remap the VolUp key to be a global Camera Shutter key (if anyone's desperate for this, I can release it in about 5 mins!) but I have the feeling that we all want the VolUp key to release the shutter only from within the Camera app itself. That will require some fancy footwork. I've yet to see it done for a Sense 2.1 ROM so... no promises, but I will take a look at it shortly.
Thank you, all, for voicing your request.
Enjoy the weekend,

Hi, I can give U a temporary solution.
Download this software
https://www.dropbox.com/s/d7x58xb2orf1n1s/BR0.2.4.1.apk
Install it.
Remap the keys as you like (you can only remap volume up and volume down shown as Media next and media previous in the soft).
U just need to know what state means. 3 states are there, Wake, Wake_dropped & none. For camera button I'd prescribe U should select NONE.
Wake = Means they will work even when screenlock is on
Wake Dropped = Means will work only when screenlock is off
You can alternatively do the same by editing /system/usr/keylayout/marvel-keypad.kl
Same process but in that case u have to do it manually. Just a little more time consuming. And revert back is a click away in that software(check >Menu>Settings). or in the second process delete marvel-keypad.kl and rename marvel-keypad.kl.bak as marvel-keypad.kl!!!

I didn't download the s/w, but if it behaves the way you say, then that won't quite work. For starters, I need to map volume to more than just WAKE or MEDIA (it has to be CAMERA). If your s/w can't do that, then I can just do it by hand (very easy). The problem, as I described earlier, is that it will be a GLOBAL change. Nobody wants that. The goal is to get Vol+Up to Shutter only from within the camera apk.
Second, your description of WAKE vs. WAKE_DROPPED isn't entirely accurate. It has nothing to do with screen on/off. It has to do with whether or not the h/w button function will be passed along to the app after the WAKE call. (WAKE sends the h/w call to the app, but WAKE_DROP does not).
Anyway, gimme another couple of days and I'll start working on this. Sorry about the delay.
Just a little teaser...
I'm able to get the HTC camera app to take a picture with the Volume rocker... but I don't like it.
I must have broken something else in the process because I (sometimes) get visual artefacts on the bottom of the picture (green bars). Also, the layout looks a bit wonky but still functional.
And finally, it's unpredictable when the camera will zoom and when it will actually take a snapshot when the vol keys are pressed. It seems like a long press will zoom and a short press will release the shutter (which is what i wanted) but it doesn't always work that way.
Now here's the real issue. I always thought that a h/w shutter button would be better than tapping the screen. But, after hacking around with it, it turns out that tapping the screen generated less shake for me! Try it yourself. If you hold your phone steady and press the Vol Up button, for me, there is a very slight movement on the camera. But if I'm holding the phone the same way (by all 4 corners) and then use the tip of my index finger to tap the shutter icon, I get practically no motion == clearer shot. (Maybe that's just me!)
In any case, I'm quite happy with the touchscreen shutter (and I'm busy as hell) so I'm not really driven to complete this project. That being said, I will glady spend a few more days on it and then release whatever I have for some other keener, smarter folks to complete.
Thanks dude..
We'll appreciate what ever release you'll give us..
A small motivation..
I was trying to take a pic of me and my gf yesterday..
It just impossible with the touch shutter..
But in the other hand.. Why ruin the view with my ugly face
It'll be fine if you simply disable the volume zoom function. Its digital zoom anyways, so we can always crop the pic later. So you can maybe map volume down to re-focus & volume up to click!

Hi all
Tigger U r the boss and I m just a noob. I hardly know anything about android.
Anyways, here is another temporary solution... Hope U like it or hope U not But i'm using it currently so ill just post that, glad if it help anyone.
Download camera360 and this S/W
The camera is better than stock I think. Use the longpress camera key shortcut as any volume control software (I use hide it pro). And long press search key as the Aneq Equalizer free so that U can switch equalizer when u listening to music. I use vol up as next track and vol down as camera. works pretty well for me. Vol up press after remap is also used to change radio stations.. I m having good fun.:good:

if u do have a htc desire then pull the battery out n put back in then press in and hold the trackball button + power button. think that works and i think to put the phone into safe mode u press and hold the menu button + power. if ur phone just booted into safe mode itself then u probably have some kinda hardware problem.

well i think that its probably hardware if no buttons really work or if they r working without u pressing them. before blaming hardware, u should look at a video on youtube and take ur phone apart and give it a GOOD clean, all around the buttons. ul be surprised at how dirty they get and that causes them to stick. its up to u tho but thats what i would do.

Is it possible to get one of you talented fellas to port the MOD from the ATT HTC One? I tried flashing the MOD to use the HTC Logo as a sleep/wake/menu but it bricked my phone (perhaps since we are on 4.2.2?), did a restore and that fixed me back up.
Would be nice to have this on our Verizon version
Thanks!
It didn't brick just failed to boot probably because of the kernel flash that was for 4.1

I really want the bulletproof kernel but I am sure our devs can't get it ported until kernel source is released from HTC.

the only way to get that logo to act as a button is with a custom kernel who the dev built in the option for it..
can't be done on stock rooted stock kernel.

me too, i PM'ed the guy who makes bulletproof and he said he can't do anything until the source code is released.
Any idea when source code will be released? I am not a dev by any means, but aren't the manufacturers supposed to release the source since Android is open source?

Did you ever try to boot another HTC One kernel that is 4.2.2? Probably might be the first thing I do when I get my phone back.
You might be able to. Find the button map number and then add it to the list and tell it to wake the device when pressed.

Sorta. Like on the Rezound. The area between the 4 buttons. The phone registered it as "key 0". Now you can't do anything with "key 0"
But someone with CWM Touch. Go to key test in advanced options and press the HTC logo and see if it registers as anything.

It's not actually under the HTC logo, it's actually located right above it (practically on the screen). It's not built to be a button, it's a part of the touch screen digitizer that just happens to extend beyond the actual screen.

I have used it and it is quite annoying. Honestly, its not worth the extra trouble because the area is so small and is practically on the screen. Most of the time I ended up opening the app drawer. However, roms should include the ability to remap the recents to be one press for menu, hold for recents. That would be 10x more useful than using the htc logo.
