Darkside v6 questions. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Well I didn't want to crowd up his thread but I had some questions. First anyway to take screenshots? I can't figure it out. Also with the touch wiz is there a way to change the standard 5 icons?
Also feel free to post other questions from his uvle1 rom if y'all want to help with the clutter control...

I am actually running v4 if its the same then all you have to do is press and drag the shortcut over which ever one of the standard ones you want to replace and it should switch spots

Did you figure it out? IM on v7 now and all you gotta do is go to the apps screen and then edit after that you should be able to move the icons around

[MOD] Enable Softkeys and Disable Capacitive Keys (FK23)

My menu key has been Phantom pressing a lot lately so I wanted to add the Nav bar and disable my capacitive keys to prevent Phantom presses.
The Nav bar is easy but the key layout code is different in Jellybean than it was in ICS or GB. It took me way too long to figure out where the code for capacitive keys was in FK23, so I thought I'd make it easier for anyone else who needs/wants this mod.
To get softkeys/Nav bar, click on Mattix's link below and follow instructions. (thanks for discovering this)
To disable your capacitive keys, navigate to system/usr/keylayout and change the file called "Generic.kl" to "Generic.kl.bak" and paste this file in its place...
http://db.tt/Vdqr44cq
Then reboot and your capacitive keys will be disabled. The keys may still light up. You can change that by going into your phones settings and display, change touch key light duration to always off. Hope this helps somebody.
By the way, the Nav bar is pretty large at stock dpi but if you change the density (I like 200 myself) it doesn't look bad at all.
You would make a thread after I posted this...

Woops yeah didn't see that. This was mainly for disabling the capacitive keys. I figured most people knew how to do the Nav bar already.
Lol I just read your post. You can ask my wife I spent hours googling how to add Nav bar and looking through the keylayout files trying to disable the capacitive keys while she yelled at me . Wasn't trying to steal your thunder or anything. Just a crazy coincidence.

The Nav bar should work on ICS but the file for disabling capacitive keys is only for fk23. Albeit it's extremely easy to do on ICS.

anyone have any idea on how to change this to be used in touchwiz?
launcher.force_enable_rotation=true
since fk23 is 4.1.2
That app does not work correctly

It might be in the launcher app. I'm still learning about decompiling apks so I would have no idea on where to begin.

Yeah I'm trying to make the search key open recent apps. I always used that mod on tw ICS roms. At this point when I try to change the line it just breaks everything. Gonna try and figure it out though.

Well if you're on a cm10 ROM, go into settings and assign the long press menu function to "voice search" and then I'll mod the apk to add the ability to launch it from holding the menu button.

Haha yeah it's not possible in touchwiz. I believe the long press menu function acts as a regular search button single press. I'm certain that could be changed but I'm not sure I never ran touchwiz. what version of floating note do you have?

I am on CM10 and was able to change my long press menu button to function as long press search. If you can get me your android.policy.jar file i should be able to change it. it might take some time though im not 100 percent sure what to change.

T989 won't screenshot on jellybean

No matter what OS, on jellybean, the feature to screenshot doesn't show up, on stock I can't screenshot at all. CM10.1 is the only one I can do so on. I would prefer stock, but I'm using that T-Mobile JB leak, and I don't know if that feature just wasn't included, or what?
Can you guys help me here? How can I screenshot on stock?

No your in the development section not Q&A and yes volume down and power does work and always has for any ROM on this device that I have used. Timing had to be right but it works.

I understand that it is the normal way to do it. I always do it, on my tablets, on my phones, everything. It just won't work. I've reinstalled stock, I've installed Jedi jelly, Jedi mind trick, anything that comes with touchwiz will not let me screenshot.
Tl;Dr, the button combination doesn't work, and none of the apps do. It's like the ability is absent from my phone. ICS and gingerbread it works on, as well as CM or AOKP, but none other.

I just had a brainfart and figured it out. The leak is for the version of the t989 with the centered home button, so when I hold down home and power, it screenshots! Just for anyone else who has this issue.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
So I was wondering about this, and figured out that unlike htc, when you want a screen shot, you hold the power button and just tap the home button, the official t989 tmous release of jb requires that you press and hold both the power button and home button, at the same time, for two seconds, it will screen shot! It feels not very intuitive as the amaze, but still not complaining, I enjoy it very much, just going through sense w/d's, without my weather widget, or all the other cool full screen widgets, fm radio ect ect
thanks .... screen capture on Kodoo Gs2x or T989d
