Screenshot app for unrooted Desire (?) - Desire Themes and Apps

Hi guys!
Is there an app to take screenshot images and save them in the storage card directly as camera does. I don't want to root my device just for this purpose, at least not before the official froyo upgrade. Thx

Try shootme, from the market.

Shoot Me requires root. You can use the Android SDK.

Android SDK is the only way if you dont have root AFAIK

well.. where to find android sdk? it is not available on the market. Thanks for replies..

It's not a phone app, it's a desktop development environment for Android:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Available for Windows/Mac/Linux

this link tells you how to take screenshots using the SDK
http://blog.digitaltinder.net/2009/06/how-to-take-android-screenshots/

No app does this yet... Site Shot gets the closest with a functional, albeit limited, workaround. Some other apps like Gensoid allow them to take screenshots too.
So the method suggested above is what works.

Thanks mates..
Site shot seemed only for web browser pages, didnt try anything else with it though. Android sdk seems the only way to do that, so far. Actually i'd thought an app similar to wm app "shake n save" could be found for android too.

There is a game called farm towers. In that game it allows you to take screen shots. On my cdma htc desire I was able to take screen shots while playing the game. It force closed but it saved the screen shot

andriod commander is fab .. for screen shots

I looked on the market and didn't see anything called that at all. Do you have the link?

MyPhoneExplorer
Try this one.

I did and that doesn't work either

Activate USB-debugging on your phone .

or root it in 5 minutes with unrevoked

This is just an update to HTC Sync which allows loading 3rd party apps from the desktop. Anyone want to try out the Mobile Network sharing feature and report back?

Oh man. I was happy for 10 seconds. Until I scrolled down. I need WiFi hot spot so bad

Yep I was excited too there for a little bit.. oh well maybe someone will crack WiFi tether soon enough.

I'm wonder how long at&t is gonna let htc do this before they pull the plug on this, lol.
Can someone who updated htc sync upload the update file please? It did actually allow 3rd party sideloading which is awesome and since htc has now removed the update from their website, I would love to have the file.
Thanks

Wildfire has already officially Froyo...
I read the news somewhere, it'll in UK not in South East Asia (my hometown in Cambodia)
Currently, I try like this to know whether it available in my country or not...
Setting -> About phone -> System Software update -> Check now -> There is no updates available for your phone.
Download the android sdk form here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html then unzip it and then plug your phone in and enable USB debugging (menu > settings > apps > development) then open the tools folder and run DDMS. click on the phone and then click on device and choose screen capture

Question about the market from a total noob

Hello all. Had an iPhone then a windows phone 7 device until about a week ago. Bought an Orange san Francisco, cracking little phone. I had rooted it and was running a custom firmware. I like Android so much I bought a desire he yesterday, it rocks. The question I ask, is on the san Francisco, if I search for say "youtube downloaded" in market place I get a lot more results that if I do the same search on my desire hd. I'm using the newest market place app on both and both are on the same WiFi network. Any ideas? Sorry if this has been asked previously, but I can't figure out how to search in the xda app, please don't flame me for my ignorance.

Could only guess due to different versions of android. if you are sure that you are using the same Search string in Market then am puzzled too.
I have 2.2 on my desire, but used both a leaked custom 2.2 curtosey of modaco, and a standard 2.1 on the Dan Francisco. Is there an alternative web place I can get the free android apps from. Note, in not requesting free apps, just an alternative place I can search for the free apps.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
The fast boot option hides some apps in market. Try unchecking that.
It is in Settings -> Applications

You can try Appbrain, and in DHD try HTC Likes - it inturn searches market but they are very usefull in app discovery.

The fast boot settings says, u need to disable this for some market apps to work. NOt sure whether will it hide anything from showing to the user...
If you have rooted your Desire HD take a look for Market Enabler on the market.

Playstation App (Official)

Saw this over at AndroidSpin.com, it's just the network app not the emulator from the Playstation phone. Anyway, enjoy
BTW, here's the link to the article on AndroidSpin.com
It's been a busy morning so it took a bit longer than expected but for those of you that couldn't DL the app for whatever reason - I have it up now.
Cool, thanks.
It gives me an error when I try opening it

Wont download can someone release the apk or any download link
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Sorry guys, I should have thought about that lol. I'll be at work in an hour (have the apk on my computer there), I'll upload it when I get there.
If it gives you errors after installing it, just try to install it again and it should correct it - worked for me anyway.
Link on android spin worked perfectly for me and no errors installing.
Thx

App works but I don't see anything special here. I can see who is online on PS, but I can't message them. Also, the friends list doesn't seem to be sorted. Offline friends are mixed in with online friends. What's the point of this? To read about games? See your friends trophies? Hmmm, I uninstalled.
Appreciate the post though. Thanks.

Heres the apk
Just downloaded it, going to try it soon.
What would be cool is either remote play to PS3 feature, or at least the ability to turn on your system and have it download selected items from the PSN.

New Android market

Hello,
For new Android market that is rolling out now, will we will get the new Android market even if our phones have been rooted and have custom ROM on it?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I couldn't imagine them doing anything specific just to (I'm sure only momentarily) annoy people with rooted phones.
If your market works now I'd say there's a fairly good chance the new one will as well. Although I cannot confirm it.
Yes, the new one works. I use it since.yesterday on my dhd.

EDIT: can't find the thread where i got the apk from, but i loaded it up for you with my super awesome 25kbit/s internet

Anyone else getting problem with it not showing your installed apps? Only showing 11 apps when I just counted I actually have 55 apps installed. Don't want to have to uninstall and reinstall all them just so they show up.

A restart and a bit patience sorted the problem.
Overall I like it. Would rather there was a my apps button on the front page but in not going to go on a murderous rampage because its missing.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
From what I can see it is a very data hungry application as it can take a while to fire up when network connection is on the slow side.
i still havent got the update on my dhd.
so there are different release dates between different regions right?
Ye, Google did say the update (which will go on your phone auto, so no need to go to settings and update) will be with us all between now and up coming weeks.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
i hope the version that goes arround is not the final one cause beside being very laggy it is buggy. it broke a market link of an installed ap while trying to update it.
also even though it showed me one app being able to update it didn't allowed me to. clicking on it brought me to the apps details page and there i could only open or uninstall it.
i could onlly update apps if i had more than one by clicking update all.
p.s. oh and not to forgot: the amount of traffic it causes is extrem! a multiplactive of the old one, as if they would not cache the images of the apps showcase on the front page.

Agreed, same problem here, uninstalled the update. Don't like the new layout, hard to find things.
I have uninstalled the update and gone back to the last version. New one is almost unusable on anything other than a perfect cell connection.

Same here but i guess i'll keep it as it looks great,just a matter of few days to get habitual of it
when i click on download in new market it is starting to download for ages
when i reset phone it download the file immediately
Am I the only one, who thinks the new Metro-look (WP7 like ) is ugly?
I dont see any slowness. The only thing that bothers me is the updates. With the old one you could see the updates right away. With this one not so direct.
