Hold down volume down and power button for a couple of seconds...but for me it doesn't work! Any suggestions?
Not trying to be rude but if holding down both the Power and Volume - buttons doesn't work for you....then you aren't doing it correctly.
Both buttons, pressed simultaneously and held, will result in a screen shot. You'll hear it and see the image scale down as if to show you the photo "screen shot" then fade away with a notification noting that a screenshot was captured.
Stock ROM, stock everything.....this works on ICS and JB and the Nexus is JB. Works on my Xoom (ICS and JB), my Droid 4 (ICS) and my Nexus 10 (JB).
Uhm... Don't know... I watched videos on YouTube... And act the same with my Nexus 10,without any results. I will try again...

Just remember Volume - is right next to the Power button and you'll have to hold them down for about 2-3 seconds.

You have to hold the volume button depressed on the upper end (towards the power button) in vertical tablet orientation and not try to rock it down or away from the power button.
Push the power button slightly before the volume down button, then hold them. If you hit volume first you will just change the volume instead of getting a screenshot.
lol a few weird and over complicated instructions..
Firstly make sure you know which side volume down is on the volume rocker. Then press and hold both that and the power button at the same time. Two seconds later a screenshot will be produced.
Since that key combination causes my nexus 10 with Android 4.3 to reboot odds are good that they changed something.
And tcrews you can say all you want about not wanting to be rude, but that reply is rude. Your answer could easily have been worded otherwise, but starting like you did causes you to come across as rude.

Not to be rude but that wasn't rude. Lol just kidding it was too good an opportunity to pass. But I think he just didn't want the person to be insulted. They were just helping so its fine.

Judba on IRC and I have been looking at this for a while, and its been stumping us because the key mappings are already set for it to wake the phone from sleep.
As you know, only the power button currently wakes the device.
This patch will enable the wake on volume function.
Credit jcase, rhcp, and myself.
jcase and rhcp figured out the modification needed, I decompiled and recompiled.
Use this at your own risk. Only tested with BAMF roms.

Nice, been hoping for this.....thanks!
Great work. The number of mods and ROMs and kernels are increasing so fast. Good jobs every dev.
This might get me to finally root my Thunderbolt.
Does it put it to sleep too?

I hope not. . Otherwise it would kind of be worthless for volume control. . But yes good question.
My volume button is pretty sensitive. I can see this turning my phone on in my pocket all the time.
Besides that, I use WidgetLocker.
Nice job, devs! I'm sure a lot of people will love this mod.
Cool, I've been wanting this
Gonna give this a shot, might take some getting used to. Thanks guys.

If you do not mind losing your lock screen then there is an appropriate called No Lock in the market that does this too
installing right now, running virus r1b3, let you know what happens
*Crashed on boot, had to battery pull...
*Seems to work fine now, I hate battery pulls..
BUT GOOD WORK, THANKS!!!
Wooot Thanks! It's so difficult hitting that power button, much preferred the Droid 1's power button - closer to the edge of the phone. AWESOME.
Adry how does this function when your playing music with the screen off?
How do i make this work

Took a long time to boot, was stuck on thunderbolt screen long enuff for me to start taking the case off for a battery pull, then it just booted completely. Running BAMF remix 1.5 with included kernel and some of the ZH pilot mods.
THANKS

For me, a single press turns screen on then adjusts volume while still locked
(using htc music)
While screen is off. Since we don't have lock screen controls this mod might be extremely useful for some. If someone can make it happen i'll gladly donate $10 or if that's not enough maybe I can get a bounty going.
Yes! I have no idea why the manufacturers or google haven't made this a feature yet. God damn I miss the hard button controls on cm7.
I have missed that since before my first droid!

Glad to see some action in here. Lets keep this thread going, maybe it will catch the eye of one of our amazing Devs!
Would love to see this.

This is how I set it up on my iPhone using sbsetting. Hold power for 1 second to start playing. Hold home for next track or skip. Since the galaxy s iii has the home button, I figure we could d the same
EDIT: I wouldn't use the volume buttons since I use them to adjust volume

Download AOKP ROM...it has it and 4328957209348 better than stock anyway
i dont mean changing the volume buttons to skip tracks, I meant holding the button down to skip tracks. I guess I should've made that clear. All of the Roms I ran on my last phone had this feature. It was either baked in or it was a flashable mod.
And ROFLMFAO at iPhone!!!! Ur in the wrong place buddy
Working fine on CM9
I'm honestly surprised no one has made an app available on the market that makes this feature available. I personally believe there is potential money to be made with this idea. I'm no Dev, but from what I understand it involves manipulating the framework files which may vary from phone to phone. Might be why this app doesn't exist? Just to clarify, I'm talking about the way it's implemented on CyanogenMod and some other custom ROMS, not "shake to skip" or one of these other apps that are currently available. I believe the CM style is the type of implementation the OP is talking about.
Super bump
Why they don't include this stock boggles my mind. This seriously should be a basic feature. I miss this so my about cm7 on my dx.
would love a flashable mod for this! i miss this the most from my previous htc incredible
I'm sure some Dev can shine some light on this topic. Spread the word ppl!
While I was browsing Google maps my nexus 7 made a noise. It wasn't quite the camera noise but it was close.
Then popped up some superuser requests from an "app" called dump state. I know I should have taken a screenshot of what it was asking for but one of the line codes was something about IP table possibly. I couldn't catch the word fast enough.
Anybody have any info on this?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
It's not a virus, dumpstate gives you detailed system information.
Could this be used for malicious purposes?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
i get this sound and request every time i watch a video, but i can get rid of the dialog that pops up asking what to do with the dump file and still watch the video. how do i find out what is causing this?
Yea I had this pop up twice. and I am not even sure how it was triggered. the first time was while i was on my way to work... and i left my tablet in my bag and when i took it out at the office my screen was on and asking for su and then wanted me to email it to myself or put it in drive.
2nd time just happened while i was leaving office today or rather while i was already on my way home from the office.
Im using PA2.99b8 and not clue how its triggered... any insights into how not to have it keep poping up as it drains battery cause it just leaves my screen on would be nice.
Its triggered by simultaneous pressing of volume and power. Simply delete bugmailer.sh to be done with the annoyance.

It also happend to my international note 2. I didnt know what triggered it. My phone hanged after i denied its request. Any ideas guys?
It's an issue with superSU latest update. Chainfire is aware and will fix it tomorrow.
@ChainfireXDA: Cause of dumpstate found. Little to see here. Will explain later, gotta run to a birthday party now!
Hey guys can anybody let me know how to take a screenshot. I've tried Vol Down + Power Button with no luck. Also tried getting some apps from the playstore but they all keep asking if I'm rooted.
Any help? Thanks in advance...
I think its power plus home or volume plus home....at least its something like that for my bros s3...id assume they would keep it similar for the s4

For the Galaxy S4 they said that the way to do a screenshot is the following: with your whole hand tap the screen by covering it and the screenshot will then be done.

here is a youtube video showing the hand gesture screen shot method.
Im guessing your palm should be touching the screen right?

I was about to call bs but then I watched the youtube video. It makes me wonder how many fake gestures someone could make up to get people to look like idiots with their phones.
Palm swipe... It's the same method that was present in the note 2.
is it me or the note 3 has a low?
and if so how to increase it?

To increase volume, press the top portion of the volume rocker (found on left hand-side of the phone).
Try and see if viperfx will work, assuming you rooted it already

Use Diceplayer, it has a 400% volume boost.
Or just use headphones and stop bothering the rest of the public
