Screenshot?

Hey all,
I want to take a screenshots. I've looked it up and pwr + vol- but every time I try the volume just does down and the phone power menu pops up. I tried searching but I only have access to this phone for a while, so I'm sorry if this has been asked.
Thanks in advance

You have to make sure you hit them both at exactly the same time. I had problems with it at first too. Just hit them both at the same time and hold it down for a bit.

You're pressing them wrong!
Press both together

Should home and back be illuminated ?

My home and my back arent illuminated I'm sure they were when I got the phone
Reviews show them lit .. before I ring 3 for a replacement I want to check
Thanks

cover the 2 sensors on the top left with a piece of folded paper or something, do they light up?

Ah yes .. I'm sat under a bright light doooh thank you
Thought my home and back was faulty . It sometimes is less responsive than other times (double tap to get multi apps ) but I'm presuming that's a software glitch

Others are reporting issues with the buttons sometimes not responding, not sure if it's a software glitch, or just a small footprint for the buttons, ie you have to press right on the button and not in the general area if you know what i mean.

Cool I'll relax then and stop worrying my phone is faulty. Big thanks

I would monitor how you go with pressing the buttons, it may be a glitch, but i know when i'm using mine, i am often off the button when i press it, being used to the One X for the last year, the buttons are further to the edge, so automatically i have been pressing further out than the actual buttons are.

I always turn mine off. Just saying lol

I have been careful to hit in middle and it's working on now thanks

The capacitive area is in fact VERY small. Just barely bigger than the Home and Back icons themselves. Precision touch is required and is why I suspect some think its not responsive

How do you turn them off ?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

I use an app called keyboard backlights from play. Works great but recently in occasions they come on anyway. They are off 80% of the time though. Can only do if your rooted btw

Try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39498430&postcount=7
Seems that the One has very small area of touch for buttons, so probably not software problem.

Turn on vibrate and you will realise how small of an area we have .. seems the way it's been designed and not a bug . Vibrate assists because you know when your missing now don't have the issue

Defective power button?

I've received my black HTC One this morning and I'm happy!
However coming from the one X it feels as if the power button is quite recessed and hard to press. Does anyone else have the same problem? Can anyone post photos of their power buttons from the front so I can see whether it's normal?
Thank you guys. I appreciate your help
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Mine was the same, apparently it's normal... i'd call it a shocking design flaw tbh.
I know they didn't really want anything 'sticking out the phone' but as it's the only way to switch the phone on it's a huge over sight if you ask me.

It's normal..., all Ones I've seen the same issue.
With a custom rom u can use the volume buttons to screen on... ?

Mine doesn't stick out loads but it's no where near recessed.

HTC as "Home" button?

Is there a way for me to make;
Back=Back
Long press back=Menu
HTC= Home
Long press HTC= Google Now
Home=Recent apps,
If someone could either do this for me or provide me with instructions I would be very grateful.

I'm pretty sure the "htc" logo, is just a logo. There isn't any way to make it do anything.

The HTC logo has already been made as a menu button, and also is implemented in "logo2wake/sleep" and "sweep2wake". But to answer the op's question, yes it should be possible

Do you think HTC will role out an update to use the logo as a menu and get rid of the black 3 dot menu on some apps?

It was explained by a member of HTC's support team in a Reddit Q&A that the HTC logo in fact does not have a sensor beneath it:
http://www.reddit.com/r/htcone/comments/1d6p8f/debunking_some_myths_and_answering_some_common/
Myth/Question #1: The HTC Logo is a capacitive key that can be programmed as an extra input option.
A: There is an XDA video showing a user who mapped this HTC logo to respond to button presses. Even with that video- this is false. There is no capacitive sensor located in that area. The XDA user programmed the final row of pixels (or a couple rows) located in the middle of the phone to be accessed as a keypress. There is no hardware supporting capacitive touch in this location (one of the engineers showed me the opened up device personally).
There is an image I found online and posted in this thread showing the capacitance locations

Cool...
...but it does work as a button, regardless if it's a capacitive one or not. Nobody here said it's capacitive, just asking if it could be used as a something other than a menu button which is does do in all custom kernels. The OPs request seems totally do-able with a custom kernel.
But no, HTC will likely never make it a feature. But that is why we have bad ass devs.

Not to harp, but the logo is not a button, period. No matter what kernel you use, you will never be able to press on the logo itself and have the device respond. Every implementation of logo2wake or logo2menu will say to hit the area "above the logo" to activate the feature, since you're then close enough to the screen to trip those first few sensors.

I mean, so long as it works, no one really got "trolled" per se.

I just have my logo or above it for the technical people as my menu button. Home is home, long press Google now, double tap for recent. That's ideal for me. I'd want my home as home not menu

Man, all these kernel devs are lying to us, calling it "logo2wake" and stuff when it should be called "eversoslightlyabovethelogobutnotonthelogobecausethelogoisn'tarealbutton2wake"
I wonder why they don't call it that...Oh, because it sounds retarded, that's why.
I get it's the screens digitizer which is ever so slightly functional under the black border at the bottom of the screen and they simply remap the tiny sliver above the HTC logo to function as button.

Thats for little fingers and pencil dicks
large girth fingers actually hit the logo button (at least the top half) and it works :silly:

Unpin app

With lollipop there's this new feature that lets you pin an app. Too bad I can figure out how to undo it.
It says to press and hold back and power but it doesn't do anything besides rebooting after a while

Basically, you press power and then back to unpin on the HTC one M7 and not the other way round.

Yup. Just worked. Thanks!
