Screenshots!!!
I'm super super super excited!!!
I have known for over a year that all Samsung Android phones (with touchwiz) have a built in screenshot engine. The problem is that nobody has been able to figure out how to use it. I've even triggered it accidentally a few times on my Vibrant. There is no documentation on this feature but I finally stumbled across the answer while playing with my new Galaxy S II.
HOME+POWER
Please try this on some other Sammy phones and report back. I would love to find out if it works on all of them.
ah yes, it's actually documented in the manual
but as usual no body reads it, not even me
LOL
but it was mentioned already on the release date of the phone, and demoed
there's also another way to capture screen, something about tilting the screen and pressing something, forgot that part
Thank you all for your help.
I found it burried in the app screens.

After you flash AOKP roms, there is an option for you to take photos with power button. Although it is still a little weird.

Hi,
There is a bunch of camera apps on the Play Store allowing it...:
Camera ICS+:https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEwMiwiY29tLm1vYmx5bnguY2FtZXJhaWNzcGx1cyJd (approximates the stock camera in look with more settings).
After:Vignette,Camera Zoom FX,Shot Control,Pro Capture,Camera 360,etc...
All the camera apps (or almost) can settings hardware button to take picture.
I just noticed this now because I wanted to use the feature but my Rogers SGS3 can't take pics during video. The buttons not even there. I thought we were supposed to have that feature. Anybody else have that? Fix?

I thought that while recording video all you had to do was touch the screen to take pics?
That just causes it to refocus on that area.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Are you sure? I don't think you can manually focus during video recording. Taping the screen during recording looks like it is refocusing the camera but that is in fact the animation it makes when it is snapping a still during recording. No sound, no sliding to the side animation like when taking photos. Just that slight focusing effect to let you know you it worked.
Check your gallary.
Not working, tried that. Just refocusing the video. You can see a button on the bottom right that says AF to establish AF again. No pictures in the gallery.

I am on rogers and can take pictures during video.
when making a video all you do is press the little camera icon beside the red record button
I noticed that it says nexus so iam guess your not on stock rogers?
I'm with rogers using a custom rom and that feature is there

That is odd. Sorry I was of no help. Not sure what the issue is and unfortunately I'm not on a stock rom so I cant dig thru the cam/settings to be of any help.
Can someone who is on a stock rom that is able to take stills while recording post a screen grab of their cam app to show what its supposed to look like?

I've seen pictures of what it supposed to look like. Just was hoping maybe there was an option I missed. Very frustrating.....
If you have anti shake turned on then the option to take pictures while video recording is not there. Simply turn off anti shake

Hello all, The question is quite confusing. So let me ask again in detail. Actually I had Seen a screen where there were thumbnails of videos Present in my Phone & all of them were running a Preview mode of all the videos. I was amazed to see Preview of all of my videos together on the Same Screen. I am unable to go to that screen again as I have forget the exact way I went there. But I remember that I went there through videos widget. when you add the widget to the homescreen, there is "+ Add video" button on the widget & when it is Pressed THERE COMES THE SCREEN..... but once the one of the Previewing thumbnail is selected. you can't go to that thumbnail Screen again.
Can anybody Please guide me to that Screen?

Guys have anyone of you noticed that quality of screen shots is quiet poor ...its like quiet blurry..can anyone help me out with it...I never felt it on my galaxy note 3 or note 2 or note 8.0..it ruins the whole experience of taking screen shots of important articles and making notes over it...
This seems to be a limitation of the SPen enabled Screen capture only. When using other apps like Screenshot UX, the screen captures (especially the text) look great and are nice and crisp. Samsung needs to fix this issue.

I second this. Same for pen or home+power.
Cheers,

My screenshots from air command are blurry while the ones taken by Home + Power are crisp and half the size than the former.
iiSo say we all!! from my SM- P600
My screenshots via S-pen or Holding the Power+Home are crisp too.
I have the same "issue". Both via S-Pen and Home + Power...
Very strange.
Affy how could yours be different ?

To me it honestly looked no different from my S3. I will have a look properly and will post some pics if I get a chance tonight after work but honestly the times I have taken screenshots the quality seemed pretty good to me whether I was pre-ocupied of just being excited about the S-pen but I'm sure I would have noticed if it was terrible quality like the pic you posted.
Earlier was somehow compressed...take a look at this one...its not very blurry but you cannot call it a crisp one...quiet low quality when compared to note devices..

Yeah the S-pen screenshot isn't very good however the Home+power button screenshot looks pretty spot on to me.
(Make sure you click the image to zoom in)
This is the S-pen Screenshot (Pen top left)

And also the Home+Power Button Screenshot

The Home+Power button screenshot looks pretty crisp to me.
Exactly, when taking screenshots with the Spen It will compress it to be used in the image editor.
When using the regular screenshot either swipe or Home+Power its an uncompressed png.
