Hey guys quick question ? One of the things ive always like about sense is that you can hold power + home and you get a quick screenshot
And how could I do this on unsense or on another rom without holding power ?
I imagine that button combo has to be baked into the Rom. You can look at xposed to see if there is a module to enable it. I bought a screenshot app that allows me to shake the phone to take a screenshot. That's my workaround.
Or you could order a Pressy and use that for screenshots if you want to get away from the power button as well.
The button combo is power+volume down. That works on every ROM I've ran.

Hold down Home and Power button.
You can also add it to the power menu through ROM control
I might be wrong since I haven't been on AOKP in a while, but I thought it was "volume down + power". Maybe it changed.
There's a THANKS button around here somewhere!

Found your thanks button lol and your right, its vol down and power, completely missed that when I first read the post lol.
Using the latest AOKP from TASK and KToonesz, but I am not able to use the screen shot function. Am I missing something here? Before I had to only hold down the home button and power for the function.
Thank you for your help in any way.

You need to enable it in ROM control. Menu> settings> ROM control > power menu > screenshot. You can also set it as a shortcut if you use the nav bar
Edit: I'm sorry. Are you looking for just the quick method of screenshot or any working method? Because you can just hold power like you were shutting down the phone after enabling it in ROM control.

Besides holding the power button down for a while, is there a shortcut similar to the stock HTC ROM shortcut (power button and home-button)?
Perhaps power and volumedown?

unfortunately, no. I have tried that already. thanks for trying though.
Power + volume down works. That's the standard AOSP way of taking a screenshot and works with all AOSP based ROMs. It's just a bit tricky sometimes. Many times volume down gets pressed first and brings up the volume slider. Make sure you press them both exactly at the same time and hold till a screenshot is taken.

my bad, you're right.
just didn't realize I needed to hold it down for about a second. not the fastest to respond, but it certainly does answer my question though.
thanks!
I've seen it mentioned there is a mod in some roms that removes the delay the home button has. Is there a flashable version of this mod for a stock rooted rom? Or is my only route to flash one of the roms with it baked in?
Thanks
It's not a matter of that. It's a voice. When you have it enabled for home button double press, it lags the phone waiting for a second press. Just open a voice and disable the home button hot key in settings and then like no lag

Hi,
I'm using CM14.1, the question is how can I take a quick screenshot (like pressing the recent button in stock). You know, our device's volume buttons are placed on the back so it's difficult to take a screenshot in traditional way. I think we can hold the the home button like what greenify did.
Thanks in advance.
