Screenshot on Stock SIII ROM? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I am on CM10 right now all because it has the option of a screenshot and i love the stock ROM for the SIII. I have tried all of the screenshot apps and they don't work at all and i hate them so much. Is there a MOD or something to get the option of holding down the power button and taking a screenshot with the stock ROM?

Hold the Home button+power button. This is standard on new devices like the S3 so no additional screen shot apps are required.

I did not know that. That's awesome. Thank you so much

Or you could just put your hand on it's side and slide it across the screen. This also takes a screenshot on the stock rom.

Native screenshot feature?

Ok, so my friend has the fascinate and holding back and pressing the power key takes a screenshot. If the tw rom from that phone was ported to our phone, would the screenshot feature be preserved, and work on the epic?

Her phone is on gingerbread. And wow, that's not wat I expected. I thought it was just a rom feature.

I tried pushing the screenshot apk to my Epic when I had it and it didn't work. Either the button mapping is different of its something in the kernel

[Q]Are there any mod that lets you use the power button as camera shutter?

As stated, does such mod exist? The on screen button is cool and all and has no lag, but its not very easy to use in landscape and lack of feedback makes it hard to know when it shot, and I also find it harder to hold the phone steady...
This is a good idea and I haven't seen anything like this as of yet. Hopefully it will be implemented in a custom rom in the future.

[MOD] SkyRaider1.3 - Volume as Camera Shutter Button

this will allow you to take a picture using either the volume up, or volume down button. this is an edit to the htccamera.apk, so this does NOT mess with the volume settings.

In some other post you said that SR Zeus 1.3 is your fave ROM, most stable, etc. I totally agree, but your ICS theme for it makes it all the more special. Now with this mod, even sweeter! I'm currently rocking CM7 (i need a fully working camera, so no CM9) b/c I'm a flashing addict (ROM flashing, that is). Are there any support groups for those of us who can't go more than a few days w/o flashing? (Sorry for the off-topic).

editing of the .smali code in the systemui.apk
requires decompiling, editing the code, then recompiling.
that said, I've never tried to even do this MOD, if I did I'd make it, in the mean time, I can just make that icon transparent..
it will be a blank space if say the sync icon or something else is next to it

Alright thanks for the info. I'm currently using Amphibliam's warm theme and I'm pretty sure that mod would override any theme changes right?

Any plans to make a mod like this for the stock camera on UKB? Love using the volume rockers as a camera button.

I second that. So much more stable and reliable to use the volume buttons. And UKB is friggin' sweet! Justin rocks!

[Request] Mod to use power button as camera button

I'd be grateful if someone could make a mod for stock camera that makes power button take a picture.

That would be a great idea but i think thiers so roms that use the down volume button already for that :good:
Good idea. I remember the s2 had this mod but I'm not sure if there is a how to or tutorial to the coding of it. If someone finds it, I'll do it.

How do I change the lock screen shortcuts?

I just got this today. When I first turned it on it did a load of updates, went to 4.2.2, then multi-screen was disabled. I read that a wipe would fix that, so I did so.
Now on the lock screen there are 4 shortcuts for apps, I can't find anywhere under lockscreen in the settings where I can change them. There's no "lock screen options" button that I think only exists in 4.1.
How can I change the shortcuts? I googled and couldn't find anything.
Also the the "home screen mode" is totally gone from the list. And the initial tips you get when you first turn it on are gone too :/

You can see the option for it in this screen shot I found:

This is what it looks like on the S3

Before it upgraded to 4.2 it was there as well as all those tips on each screen when you first load the device.

Ah, well, in that screen shot, I just found that with a google search to show where it was supposed to be. It's not there on mine as you can see from the original screen shot from my device. I'm pretty sure it was removed in 4.2, but I haven't found anywhere that explicitly says so. Every reference to it that I've found seems to be with 4.1

Hi, sorry to bring this thread back up, but I was wondering if anyone could help me with this issue - it is essentially the same as the original poster, except I haven't got either "lockscreen options" or a "shortcuts" option in the lockscreen menu.
I've attached a screenshot. If anyone could have a look, would be appreciated.
