I had screenshot it but it started to work bad but thanks guys anyway

Go to AOKP or CM9, screen shot is in the power menu

I'm on stock ICS and I tried every combo(power/home,power vol down/up,etc.) but didn't work.
When I hold down home i see the ics task manager. Anyone have any ideas...thanks

If the button combos don't work purchase screenshot ER. Best screenshot app hands down. Has worked flawlessly with every phone/rom combo I've tried it with in the last 2 years.

Its for aosp ROMs like stock that lack the power menu options besides shut down. Not counting modified aosp like sosei of course.

But doesn't boot any faster, your point is invalid. OK kidding I hadn't noticed it shut down any faster then a normal reboot, but since I don't use stock ROMs I don't tend to use this app.

Thank you
Thank you. This is very helpful for Nexus One with broken power button. :victory:
Awesome app!
Plus, the recovery buttons combinations sometimes don't work, so I use this app to get to CWM/TWRP to be able to upgrade from stock to AOSP.

[Q] How to take a screenshot on HTC Desire HD

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

How to take a screenshot in ICS?

Am I missing it or what? I can't seem to figure out how to take a screenshot (without an app). I'm on Calkulin's Stock Rooted De-odex'd FC05 ROM v1.0.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Hold Vol down + power. It takes longer than it did on gb so just wait until the screenshot happens.

I think ist up and home or down and home. They changed the combination.

This is only for GB, I'm not sure that it applies to ICS -
This may be counter-intuitive, but using the built-in ss taking capability actually consumes more resources. If I remember correctly, doing the button combination the first time starts a whole new service that would sit there and eat up ram while waiting for the button press. I don't know how it doesn't just use the same routine to for subsequent button presses, but it does start a new service that wasn't there before (confirmed by checking Settings/Application/Running services). On the other hand, an app like ShootMe is only called into ram when you personally start it. And it released that ram when you quit it.
I must admit that I don't quite understand how this business works; an explanation from a developer is welcome.
Ics is power + vol down
no im not yelling

This. Both ways works. I personally use the home+power combo, as hitting the volume button with a TPU case on can be a serious pain.

Tv off effect

Is it possible to get the tube tv effect when I put my screen to sleep on the stock rom?
??
Its called crt animation and not on stock roms! Im sure in time there will be a custom rom that will contain that soon
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Try this
There's an app that I used on my TF101. It is a shortcut that locks your screen with a variety of effects:
Screen off and lock
It's free in the Play Store. No root required.
I dont want a custom rom on this phone.

What are you talking about? Did you even try to install the app that I linked to?
Lol
my bad, I meant to reply to tyshemi, not you. I did install that app. It does not work with the power button, and the animation is not as nice..=
The CRT off animation doesn't play well with JB from what I've seen a couple devs say, which is why it isn't even on the custom ROMs, so chances of getting it on a regular phone are slim and none I'd say.

I never said it worked with the power button. It's an icon you can tap; might actually be nicer. But I'm sorry to hear that you don't like it as much!

Thanks for the info. I kind of like the tv static plus crt close.
I have the off button on my screen now. For when I actually remember to use it, vs muscle memory of hitting the physical button.

No problem! Just a word of caution - When I use this in combination with WidgetLocker the unlock doesn't work. I had to turn the screen off with the power button then it worked again. Most likely caused by the way that WidgetLocker is an app and not a system function.

[Q] Built-in 4-Way Menu

Does anyone know if there is a built-in 4-way menu like the default: http://i.imgur.com/BmUz8Nz.png . So something like Power off, Airplane, Reboot, Recovery, Download/Odin, et cetera?
I've seen images of them but can't find the files. Thanks!

No, that is what I currently have. You press Power button, then press Restart, and THEN you get the 4 way menu. I want the one where all the options show up after pressing the Power button. Thanks for looking.

I am rooted and I would like to keep the "stock" look and would prefer to mod than to install a program. I was hoping there was an Xposed module or a mod that I could simply flash. I guess once I get my computer back (God knows how long that will be), I'll make the module myself and upload it here. I'll wait to see if anyone has suggestions until then.
Bumpity bump.
