You have to do it at the same time and hold for a second. If not, try volume down and power

You have to time it perfectly and hold for a couple seconds

Maybe this ROM is missing that option? Is there a way to install it or to check to see if its included in this ROM?

No lockscreen or power menu

I was having an issue where everytime I locked the screen and turned it back it was already unlocked.
I also noticed when this started happening that if I held down power it would shut off without a power menu.
Any explaination?
I had to master reset to get the lockscreen to return.

Ha. I looked through the threads too and I guess I passed over it.
That's not a solution though...

Native Screenshot

Was wondering if the E4GT had a native screenshot function built into it. I know with my 3D I can just hold down the Power button and hit the Home button and it would take a screen shot. That combo does nothing with the E4GT. So is it a little different with this phone or do I have to install drocap2 or something similar?
my screenshot is home + power. maybe it wasn't included in your from what's your setup?
Maybe not. I'm running the latest ICS ROM from MIJJz.

Home + Power together. I haven't tried the leaked ics builds but I remember reading a thread and some ppl said it switched to volume down + power button.

If you don't mind paying a few bucks Screenshot UX works great.
Power + home still works. Just have to keep it pressed longer, then it will take the screen shot.

Also turn on Motion in settings, the screenshot feature will show up.
It still has the palm swipe feature.
Ya that too, just curious have any of you watched someone do the motion swipe for a screenshot? People can look pretty challenged lol.

I'm using Liquid Smooth, do you have any idea how I take screenshots? There's navbar where I can but for some reason, the navbar has glitched out and is pitch black. Plus I don't want the navbar to be in the screenshot.
