Hello community.
Not sure if some of you know this or not but our nice trusty Galaxy S 2 is able to take screenshots right out of the box. Its simple
1 - Press and hold down the Home Key
2 - While Holding down "Home", Immediatly Press the Power Button .
3- Find your screen shots in the gallery under "Screen Capture"
Hope this helps

Any method? Power button also great... Just tired to use soft button.
Most custom roms have this option if you go into camera, then go to settings, then Camera Settings (more), then Power Shutter toggled on On. I have attached my Camera.apk that has this option, but you have to push it to /system/app

Thx dude yeah I can use it
But I found that it is inconvenience to use power button since it will make the phone sleep or even off
So the question is here how can I use volume buttons to capture photos with stock rom?
What do you mean using the power button will make the phone sleep? The camera app disables the power button as a 'lock button' when in 'power shutter' mode. When you press the camera button, it just takes a picture and doesn't do anything else. If you want to lock the phone, just press home then power. It's just one more button press.

You can use my application, search in google play "Photo Button - Spy Camera" by Mgrmobi
wondering if anyone is able to modify the Samsung framework so we can have a hardware button combo (ie any combination of volume, home and power) to save a screenshot, rather than the stock implementation of palm swipe across the screen.
I find the palm swipe only works for me once every couple of tries, and can often scroll the exact content on the screen you are trying to capture.
Alternatively, Any app suggestions which can achieve this would also be helpful...
EDIT SOLVED already possible with stock frame work... Press and hold both power and home simultaneously for about half a second, and screenshot is captured.
Press n hold the power and home button together !
Power + Home presssed with correct sync indeed
Hmmm doesn't work for me on omega 4.1.... ?? I see online that this should work as an option... Any setting to enable it?
Edit.... Ok got it push both bottoms simultaneously and hold for half a second. Perfect thanks all.
I would have preferred if they stuck with the volume down+ power button combo like stock Android 4.0
Are you holding them in? I thought it wasn't working at first, turns out you just need to hold them both for about a second and it'll work.
I do prefer the SE way of having the option in the LongPressPower options but hey, I love my S3 more.

Nice THX

Glad I found this. The swipe gesture is frigging useless for anything that scrolls.
I have a kindle fire with Android 4.2.2 on it. I want to take a screenshot, but no matter what app I use, it always ends up in a black picture. Help! Thanks
Which 4.2.2? Settings/system/power menu check screenshot hold the power button for power menu select screenshot.
Hello,
I updated my phone to cm-13.0-20160418-SNAPSHOT-ZNH0EAO2NJ-serranoltexx and I can't find the combination of the buttons to capture the screen, is there any option to do that?
I found similar way by pressing the power button but the problem is that I can't capture the notification bar like that.
Thank you for your time
