[Q] How Did I Screen Capture On Stock T-Mo Vibrant? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How the heck did I screen capture on a stock out of the box T-Mo Vibrant?
There have been times when I am going through my menus kinda fast, and them I hear a Camera Click, them I find that I made a Screen Cap. I have a folder labeled "Screen Captures" and in there are picture of my screens. I thought I need to be modded and rooted to do this? I however as stated have never touched this phone as it is a company phone.

short answer, nobody knows how to consistently.

Answer that question and you'll be the first to.

It's a mystery. I believe it is a strange key combination when the phone is lagging.

That pretty much sums up what happened to me haha... phone lagged i pressed the screen all over the place and BAM! screen shot!

It sould be when u hold home and back at the same time but u can only do that with the I9000 sence it has a physical home button.

Too bad people are so certain about Gingerbread being right around the corner, I have a feeling it might be delayed for quite a while (knock on wood).

Yeah, I think so too. Come on devs, lets get CRT on Froyo and make a history.
Would be awesome to have this on froyo, guess we're stuck with slow GB for now.

How is it useless...id looove to have the CRT on and off for Froyo...I have a feeling were going to run into delays with Gingerbread anyway...and with so many people still sticking with the EC05 (EE03 is just too laggy) untill OFFICIAL GB comes out and development is fully underway...I don't think it would be a waste of time at all...SO PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!

If you read the thread I provided you would know why it is useless for the epic. Believe me I would love to have it too but we are going to have to wait til gingerbread is official or you can use the unofficial rom currently out.
So I had someone ask me today what CRT is, and I said ".... you know, i have no idea, all i know is what it is."
but for anyone else out there, (which i can guarantee there's alot)
CRT = Cathode Ray Tube (old ass Television)

Lol, "These young whipper-snappers with their plasmas and 'super' lcds, their LED and AMOLED tv's, they'll never know the joy of a nice, good 'ole heavy as a motorcycle CRT, complete with cool colors anytime a magnet or speaker gets next to it, beautiful interlacing, or adjusting their vertical hold when the picture starts 'flipping'"
EDIT: And I'm only 25^ God to think when I'm 35 what we'll have. I can honestly say I can't even imagine...

Hold the power button and then quickly touch the home soft key. It's standard way of taking screen shots popularized by ios

Broken collarbones

Not really the place for medical research, but works boring me to tears so I thought I'd throw this out there.
Broke my collarbone a few years back and it never really recovered. It give me massive grief this time of year once the weather turns. Anyone got any ideas what I can do about it?

Heat. old injuries really hate the cold.
Try heatpatches or tiger balm. Also, as was suggested before, a proctologist can help you as well.

Ask your proctologist to apply Tiger Balm. That should sort you right out.
Isn't that similar to deep heat?
Been to the doctors this morning and they've said the only course of action other than permanent pain relief is to re break it and put a pin in!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Re-break it? Hold on.
Are you telling us that you didn't see a doctor when it originally happened? Because it sounds like your collarbone healed wrong. If it did, they're right, re-breaking it is the only way.

"Never really recovered" and "I'm an idiot because I broke my bloody collarbone and didn't see a doctor" are two entirely different things.
No, when I did it I was 17, they said there wasn't a great deal they could do with it at the time as the bone was to small to operate on, they put it in a really stiff sling that was somewhat like a removable cast to.hold it still, but every time I moved or was jolted the bone would move, so it took around 3 months to finally start fusing and another couple to heal fully, left me with a huge lump in ky shoulder where it should be, now the bone sits lower and further back ( or at least a big chunk of it does)

I read "never really recovered" as I never bothered to get it looked at (which in my case with my ribs is completely applicable)

Thanks for the video. Friday's almost here!
I didn't realize they put the power button on the top left. That's a weird spot to put it...I do like that they put the proximity sensors on the left side of the front. That is a major design flaw on my s3 at the moment (every time I'm on a phone call and I try to swipe down notifications, screen will turn off since it registers my thumb.)

Haven't even tried them yet. I have set of Skullcandy 50/50's that I used today, but I'll probably take the included headset to the gym tonight to give them a shot. I'll let you know.

This was the same problem with the EVO 4G LTE. I'd always end up tripping the proximity sensor when I swiped down the notification bar during calls and what not. I like the new position, and it adds a little more industrial aspect to the overall look of the handset.

Yeah, just fixed that. That was my fault. I meant if you want to know more about the phone, I'll be happy to answer questions. I've been typing a lot today. I think it's time to take a break from the computer.
Well done
Because of the curved back, I'm guessing it's a bajillion times more comfortable to hold in your hand, no ?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
explicit, how is that battery holding up?
Also, it might be a network issue, but my LTE would have trouble with incoming texts that are more than 160 chars. So I would receive the 2nd text first, then the initial text would come in second. (When one long text gets broken down into 2). I was wondering if the One did this too.

Does This look normal to you?

Sorry for the bad pictures - Hopefully you can get an idea of what I am talking about - Around one edge of the power button, the finish either looks "unfinished" or slightly "peeling off" my 1 day old phone...Probably just me being super anal but wanted your opinions. Thanks
Maybe some protective foil, I remember it took months before someone discovered the home button on the sgs2 had foil on it and we could peel it off.
