Is there any app that can take screenshot using for example a small button overlay on screen?
My phone is unrooted for some apps to work.
I searched and the only way is to connect to computer via USB.
I wonder if I can flash some package via recovery to enable me to take screenshot for unrooted phones.
Thanks a lot!
This app may help you.

There are a few custom ROMs that you can set a a Nav bar button long press to take screen shots. For example, I have my recent apps button set to take screen shots on long press.

Not that I know of especially without taking code and merging/compiling code which is what people that ROMs do. It would be easier to flash aokp ROM or team eos (my daily driver) which you can do this. You can customize the colors too and also assign the nav buttons to launch apps.

To all those who want softkeys enabled at their rom if they don't have that option you can edit build.prop ( it must work with most jelly bean and ics roms)
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Reboot
Softkeys enabled

No mate you cant do that with this mod. To do that you need to modify other system file manually

purelook hd rom
I'm using purelook hd rom and it has xperia engine in it. Can't get the soft keys on it. Need help as I can't survive without these.
LMT
hi, as an alternative to standard softkeys, you could use the app LMT (requires root)
it supports gestures, expanded desktops and Pie Softkeys with long press function as in Paranoid rom and some more nice features
Could be interesting for some

Is there a way to customize the "Recent" soft key to "Menu"? When I added the script while using the CM10 rom, I could change them around in the navigation settings. I recently switched back to the stock JB version, but added soft keys because my hardkeys stopped working after I dropped it in a spa
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Cheers!

Is there any way to make the Soft Keys smaller.. (at least 50% smaller than its original size/height)... its because my phone (the Galaxy S Advance) has a resolution of only 480x800.... I just feel like there is not enough space on my screen to be honest, that's why I'm asking this....
(Post Added)
- I can't take Screenshots anymore, using my Home + Power Button
- My dialer app is getting covered with the Soft keys.. so I can't call anyone because I can't tap on the call button

There's already one: Camera Zoom FX. I am sure there are many other camera apps too that can configure volume buttons as camera button.

Download a CM ROM, I think they have it
At least me with the Android 4.1 Camera, idk if they implemented it in the new Camera also, but the new one sucks anyway (apart from photo sphere), especially the gallery.

hi guys! exist! is called camera jb + is based on the previous version of the camera, but with many additional functions! You can customize the buttons trigger and finally there is the possibility of having the geotag icon!
I have it but I do not know if I can post it, since it is a paid application ....

Hey guys just wondering if there's a fix/work around for increasing the volume via volume up bottom without turning the screen on. I have root and I'm on stock jb 1.96 Rom with volume wake mod.
Is there a way to easily disable/enable this mod? Thanks!

There should be some buttons combination, like power button + home button for android 4.3 (stock one), and the older combination was power button + vol.down.
I've checked on CM-REMIX (android 4.4.2) and the 2nd combination of buttons works.
There's always a button combination for a screen shot (since android 4.0+ I think).

As you didn't mention what ROM you are running I assume you are running the stock firmware, Samsung's TouchWiz video player got a built-in button to take video shots.

The method mentioned above should work, me personally I use a module for Xposed Installer called Xposed Gesture Navigation and from the settings choose the gestures you want, and their action.
If you have any question concerning Xposed Installer or Xposed Gesture Navigation let me know
