Taking Screenshots? - XPERIA X10 General

Is there anyway to take screenshots of whatever is currently showing on your X10 screen like iphone users can? This would be a nice feature. I tried searching the forums here to see but didn't find anything to suggest that you can. Also on ESATO forums you can take shots while connected to your pc but thats not exactly the handiest way. Anyone have a clue if this is possible on our phones?

The only way to take a screenshot in a non rooted Android device is using the Android debugger on a PC connected via USB to the device.

Is this really relevant to the Development of Android on HD2?

[INFO] Bluetooth Proximity App

Hey guys,
I seen an article about an app for OS X that lets you run scripts based on bluetooth devices near by. I was wanting to do the same thing but for the android device. Maybe your phone is almost dead, and when you get to your computer, it was detect that device and remind you to plug your phone in, or maybe you want to sync, it will remind you when in range of registered bluetooth devices. How hard would this be? Also, I am a big fan of Titanium SDK, would it be possible to use that to make this app?
Thanks for your time and input!

I think this can be done with Tasker.

Works, No Issues. Dont know whether it will work over a USB Cable.
I'm curious as to what purpose you want to be able to do this? What are you wanting to do?
And why not just connect a keyboard and mouse via USB OTG or bluetooth? Saves having to install another app on your phone.

iCloud Photostream

As I await the arrival of my Nexus 6p a thought occurred to me. Is it possible to view an iCloud shared photo stream with a nexus device? I did a search and found workarounds for much of the iCloud functionality but not the photo sharing. Anybody have any ideas on this?

Appreciate the folks who looked. Sounds like nobody has figured out a workaround just yet. I will keep my eyes open for it. Love the new phone BTW.

As with most things apple, short answer is no.
Not sure if theres a web link which allows you to view images.
Another option would be to remote onto your home PC / Laptop and view from there, Apple will never release anything like that for Android or allow it to happen, it'd ruin their overwhelmingly tight eco system.
Potentially it's possible but i've never heard of a way to do it, maybe it might be an idea to get rid of Apple before it becomes to big of a thing to lose, then they have you.
