[Q] How do you take "screenshots" with your SGS? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How do you take "screenshots" with your SGS?
I have read that you can take screenshots with your SGS is that true and how do you do that?

You need FroYo 2.2. Then hold "back" button for 1-2s, then press "home" button.
Your SGS should vibrate and inform you that a screenshot was taken!
No app required!

On some custom ROMs, there are hacked cams, so that you can take pictures with the power button.

[Q] Working screen capture app for CM7

does anyone have any success with this? I've read in other device forums that the only way to screen capture in CM7 is with DDMS, true? I used screenshot with NOVA but both it and drocap just give a black image. Hard to believe something so simple cannot be done.
I don't have any problem using the CM7 build in screenshot functionnality

are you using one of the 2 apps i mentioned, or something else?
no, "built-in" screenshot (with the menu when long press power button)
Only click the power button
ok, i am a COMPLETE and utter idiot, thanks!
actually CM7 already has a "printscreen" doesn't it? just press power button for about 2~3 secs and theres the option, or pressing power+home is the same as stock rom
first one...

Remap keys on Touchwiz 4.0.4 ROM

Here's the idea:
I'd like to remap the keys in my N7K as follows:
-Long press home button for search
-Press current menu button for multitasking (show open apps)
-Long press current menu button for menu option.
The others would operate the way they do currently.
Any kind person could help with this? Thank you in advance!
Nothing close to this has been done yet..
However something similar is possible with using the app called home2shortcut
U will havve to delete the voice apk from your system/app to get this working..
the options u will get are
assign homme long press
assign home press followed by menu and
assign home press followed by back...
So kind of getting 3 additional hardware buttons.

Thanks! I'm trying to avoid clicking the home button as much as possible. Thus trying to replace long press home button by the menu button.

Not sure how that relates to my question. Checked the app and it seems all it does is add notification toggles just like it's name implies. That's not what my question is about but thanks!

Alternatively, use the screenshot shortcut in the quick toggles.
