Hi guys.Do you know any way to take screenshots like on Samsung Galaxy S III.I mean swiping the screen from a side to the other side?I am rooted with AOKP B36.Thx
What's wrong with vol down+power? Seems that would be preferable over a gesture that could disturb the screen you're trying to capture.
The guy above me said it

How could it disturb the screen? You do know that it uses the proximity sensor, not touch right? Its not like you drag you hand on the screen.

Wow.
I've owned this for since launch day and did not know of the volume down + power being snapshot.
Can someone get a Nokia brick phone in this bysniz?!

Nope, had no idea. I'd still prefer the button method though. Knowing me, I'd look like a fool waving my hand around over my phone :/
On aokp press and hold power button and then press screenshot.

Sorry my english is not good.
On AOKP, you can also do the power/volume down.

Fire up Voice Actions and say "Take a screenshot".
This just does a Google search

Flashlight from the market works, for me atleast. The 3 pins is for docking.

The app for a flashlight is called flashlight. Search for it in the market

My main flashlight has been Tesla LED, but it seems to have a a 3 second or so wait between pressing the torch and the light coming on. Hopefully they will patch it up soon and it will be a great torch app on the Nexus Prime.

works great.
Hi,
does USB Jig for Galaxy S/Galaxy S2 work on Nexus?
I tried a load of flash light apps, all which seemed to have taken forever from when you press the switch to when the light went on.
Apart from 1 app called "search light" https://market.android.com/details?id=com.scottmain.android.searchlight . The flash turns on instantly, and you can have the screen show you what the camera sees, which is very useful when looking for things in the dark!
I can't recommend search light enough!
I agree with darkgruff , tiny works great and just added shake to turn on in the lock screen

I don't know if you are rooted or not but AOKP's roms have a torch built in and you can enabled it as a toggle in the notification bar. Works perfectly.
Thank u any way.

Vol down + power

WTF?

In all honesty, it is a bit tricky to time it right the first time. That's why it might seem not to work but it does
Also, some ROMs have this option embedded in the power menu (though most of the time you will need to activate the option first in the settings of the ROM) and this might make it easier than pressing the 2 keys at the exact same time.
You could also look in the android market. there are a couple of apps that do that.
Although you already have screen capture on your phone, I guess you could try this app. It has been my screen capture app of choice before I bought my GNex.

I totally forgot about this method until last night when I remembered back to the announcement of the gnex and how they'd be incorporating screen caps stock. So glad I don't have to use those weak 3rd party apps any longer.
This method is hit and miss for me but at least there is a native way to take one! Thank you for your hello!

User error... Its really easy to do lol. Hitting 2 buttons at once isn't too hard .
You have to hold them for a second . Not tap and release
I usually press power before press volume down. It works 100%!

Hi,
I am playing a game which I need to take large amounts of screen shots.
I don't want to break the power and volume buttons. Is there a way to take screen shots with some gesture or soft button on Nexus 7 2013?
Thanks.

nova launcher gesture to screenshot?
You are not going to break the buttons. I have devices 4 yes old I still use (fascinate & charge) and I don't see posts about broken buttons in those forums.

You can assign a gesture in Nova to open the ScreenshotIt app, then either take the screenshot, or, activate the overlay screenshot button, go to the desired screen, and snap.

Just use the rom Cyanogenmod which will help you set the screenshot when long press the Home Button
Hey guys,
My friend spilled grand marnier on phone and now my power button doesn't work. I'm on a ROM that doesn't have screen wake by volume buttons, but is there a mod to put this in, or an app to use instead? I'm afraid to flash without a working power button and my wife's upgrade is in march so I'll have to tough it out till she gets her new phone and I take my incredible back. Thanks to anyone with any suggestions. I greatly appreciate it.

Something similar happened to me when it rained and the phone got drenched. The safest route is to use a hair dryer near the power button wait for it to dry out from the inside then try again. The contact button in the power strip doesn't work when wet.

Yeah I was going to but grand mariner is really syrupy and I think that's the major problem. This has been a problem for the past couple weeks, and been getting progressively worse. Now it won't work at all. Thanks though for the suggestion.

Try cleaning the contact off with a qtip and some rubbing alcohol

Changing Rom's can also be an option.
But you can also try using many apps to turn screen on or off by touching screen or waving hand over proximity sensor.
Eg.
I use:
PGM aka touch control:
Wake screen up with double tap or swipe up like BB10.
Screen off:
Program pie button to turn off screen.
Thank you both for your suggestions. I will try both of them.
