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.

[Request]Screenshoting like on Galaxy S III

Hi guys.Do you know any way to take screenshots like on Samsung Galaxy S III.I mean swiping the screen from a side to the other side?I am rooted with AOKP B36.Thx

What's wrong with vol down+power? Seems that would be preferable over a gesture that could disturb the screen you're trying to capture.

How could it disturb the screen? You do know that it uses the proximity sensor, not touch right? Its not like you drag you hand on the screen.

Wow.

Nope, had no idea. I'd still prefer the button method though. Knowing me, I'd look like a fool waving my hand around over my phone :/

On aokp press and hold power button and then press screenshot.

Sorry my english is not good.

On AOKP, you can also do the power/volume down.

Fire up Voice Actions and say "Take a screenshot".

Hotkey (Shortcut) for Screen shots?

What's the best way to create a hotkey shortcut for a screen shot? With my previous HTC Amaze, I could press the Power and center button and it would take the shot without having to launch an app before hand. Anyway to do this?
Thanks,

You can do that with your galaxy s3 too
even with your hands on the screen !

Huh? What buttons do I press?

Power key + home button together at the same time hold both keys for 2-3 seconds until screen shot is taken

Ahhh, got it! You have to hit them both at the exact same time. Thanks!

Also just learned you can swipe the side of your hand across the screen and it will also snap a screen shot.

You are missing the cool features of sgs3.
Swype from left to right or right to left with palm of your hand. That's how you take screen shot. Like you scan a page.

Yeah, but if you have folders open where you want to take a screenshot of the content swiping the hand doesn't always work (the physical touch on the screen closes the folder). For this I use the two button method.

Has anyone figured out how to take a screenshot with the Note 2 yet? I can't seem to figure it out lol

I tried that before I posted here but it wouldn't work. I'm guessing now it's because I still have the screen cover that came with the phone on it. I didn't plan on taking that off until I received my real screen protector. I'll take it off and give it a try though thank you.

Use spen. Press button, keep it holding and put it on the screen. Job done.
Or u can use home + power button to take a screen shot....

Menu Button = Home Button.
To Screen Capture on N7100,
Press Home Button + Power Button at the same time for a moment.
When you see a white flash with a snap sound occur, then you have a screen capture on what you view on the device.
You can view the screen capture picture on Gallery -> Screenshots Folder.
Hope this help. :silly:

You guys!
Go into the options, and then MOTION. There's an option called Palm swipe to capture.
That's the easiest and fastest way to get the WHOLE screen without taking out the SPen. I use the SPen to just capture a piece of the screen by holding down the button and drawing a shape around what I want to capture, connecting both ends (closing the loop) and there you have it!!

On screen nav buttons

The note 4 had the ability to have movable on screen nav buttons, can't seem to find this function on the 5.
Anyone know where they are, or did they deep six them?
