I've tried every combo ever and I can't get it to screen shot...I'm on the epictouchasopmod ics rom has anyone got screen shot to work?

I am on it also. Everyone keeps coming in and saying the same thing about every ICS leak and every ICS leak rom.
It is Vol Down + Power.
If you trigger the screen off or the volume slider you failed to press the buttons correctly and at this point you have failed it will not work until the screen is cleared. You have to try it again.
Nearly everyone with this sort of thread figures it out sooner or later.
You have to press and hold volume down + power for a couple seconds.

I just took the leap to try out ics and i can take screen shots with power + vol down and power + home button. Just make sure that whichever way you choose to do it you hold both buttons down for a few seconds.

Home + power. if you want an app then use "Screen Capture Shortcut free". it works like a charm.
It's hold power and tap home a second later

I found pressing the home button first then the power button is a little easier from a timing standpoint. I works perfectly IMO.

So, when I tap the home button first I get the task manager and pressing the power button takes a screen shot of the task manager.
If I press the power button first I get the airplane mode/ power off window and pressing home I get a screen shot of that.
Do I need to work on my timing or speed? How to get a shot of the window I want and not one of these other two things?

You can hit both of them at the same time, it usually snaps the screenshot that you want.
Most of the Roms when you hold the power button down like your going to shut it off will give you the option to take a screenshot. I am using BeastMOD II v2.5 and option is there.
My phone won't screenshot with the button combo but it is in my power menu. And yes, it has SU permission.

Haven't seen this anywhere and searching via my phone didn't turn up a previously existing thread about it.
regardless of the state if my phone I have always been able to force reboot without ever pulling the battery. Just hold power+ volume up+ volume down all at the same time for around 15 seconds. It will reboot while holding the buttons so just hold them till it reboots.
I apologize if this topic has already been mentioned.

I don't think the volume buttons have anything to do with it. You get the same result by just holding power.
Epic-ly tapped from my Galaxy S II
Yeah, holding the power button down until it reboots has never ever failed me. Not once.
...the volume buttons are just voodoo at that point.
Nice, thanks for the extra bit of knowledge and the correction. So nice not needing to do a battery pull.

Guess I'm in the minority, because I enjoy the battery pull lol

So most of you know what Vol Down + Power is the screenshot when you hold it. Well it looks like they kept the old Home + Power as well, just hold them and it does the same thing rofl.
Home + Power didn't work for me when I was running the rom. Volume down + Power did however. Holding home+power would just bring up either the new task manager or it would do something else. Maybe another quirk with the build?
I hold either or on FB17 and it does it.

OK the trick is pressing them at the exact same time, not one before another. Press and hold.

definetly not as smooth as on GB. took me a couple tries to get it going. I actually thought this feature was removed at first cause it is so picky but thanks for the info! now I know I just need more patience.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
It's actually smoother than gingerbread, I think most people are trying to tap them together but you have to press and hold both buttons until it snaps.
I like this new way better and also like using power + v. down. Easier to manage imo.
For example :
Home and power button at the same time = screen capture
Thank you
On AOKP & CM9 screenshot is
vol. down & power
hold down power button phone will reboot
And I think we're done here ...?

Indeed. Aside from the boot combinations that's about it.
Epic-ly tapped from my Galaxy SII
Hold search button for voice commands.
Now we're done
well if were gonna go there, hold home for recent apps
and i wish holding back would kill current app like in MIUI
Menu key opens menu (in apps that support it).
The volume rocker obviously controls the volume... And if you hold the volume down it puts your phone on silent with vibration.
Lol... Now were done here.

Home brings you to the home screen when in an app.

volume up and power until phone turns off and go into recovery
volume down and power until phone turns off and go into odin

Some ROMs allow for holding volume buttons to change tracks. I think we're done now ;p

heres a hidden one...tapping the power button turns the screen off. techwire news just announced a juicy little tip, tapping power button one time while screen is off will actually turn it back on thought id pass these new tricks on.

Well, if you're going to get into the soft keys, holding Home brings up recently used apps and task manager. hold the search brings up an app selection including Sound hound if you have it installed.

Does anyone know if there is a way to manually assign something to a long menu press on stock? I know you can do it with CM7, but I haven't found anything for TouchWiz.
If your phone is on and you have cwm installed you can press and hold the power and volume buttons together and it will take you straight to recovery.

Hello XDA fellas,
Earlier, I was browsing in the S3 section, and someone has ported the S4 camera apk for S3, so without hesitation, I flashed it onto my phone.
Immediately when I reboot, my phone wouldn't go past the boot animation, so I thought... Okay, I will just flash my nandroid backup then.
But what I found out now is giving me a heart attack, my phone doesn't go into recovery, instead, it reboots if I hold down Power + Vol Up + Down for more than 4 secs... so fine... I went to Odins and reflashed CWM with a Stock Rom, but it's still not getting past the boot animation.
If anyone has any solution to this... I would appreciate it if you can share with me what you know.
Thanks.
You need to hold home, power, and volume up at the same time
