How to shutdown my phone ?

Hi,
Since the "Power off" option is merely only a hibernation feature, how do i properly shutdown my phone ?

Keep the off button pressed. A menu will appear giving you the option to switch off.

Menu, settings, applications then uncheck fastboot. Now power off.

Asus screen shot ability on Nexus 7?

Is there anyway to get the Asus screen shot shortcut (press and hold recent apps) on the Nexus 7?

Press Power and Volume Down simultaneously.

I am aware of power and volume down, but the design of the buttons combined with the folio case make it hard to access them. I am looking for an on screen shortcut like Asus uses on the TF300. Thanks.

Do you mean something like this. I don't know if you can add to the power menus on stock.

Yes, something like that would be great.

What ROM are you using.....I doubt it is possible on stock.

You can do that with AOKP

I found an app called "Screenshot It" that adds a shortcut to the notification area. Thanks everyone for the input.

yeah AOKP has a power menu option to add it when you hold the power button, very easy to use

If your device is rooted, you can use a program called utter! (a voice activated assistant with a lot of voice commands that runs in the background). Shake your device to wake up utter! and say "Take a screenshot". Most commands in utter! do not require a rooted device but a few do.

If your ok aokp, you can change a softkey to a screen shot one. Really cool.

AOKP menu button in tablet ui

I am running the latest AOKP in tablet UI mode and hate the menu button. I am wondering if there is a way to change to the three dots.

Should be able to swap it for what you want in the systemui/res/drawable-hdpi folder I would imagine.

Use a file manager, of course. How else?

I'm reasonably sure there isn't. Try going through the settings (in particular developer options) and seeing whether there's an option like that.

Oh, okay, thanks
