Can someone tell me how to do a screenshot. I know I can swipe my hand across and do one but when I press home button and power button nothijg happens. Thanks
You can take a screenshot by pressing home and power button at once.... you might have done something wrong. Try doing it again.

I had the same issue and finally realized I was not holding the buttons down long enough. Hold until you see the screenshot notification top left.
Thanks guys. I wasnt holding the buttons long enough.

press and hold volume down and power as it works that way for many devices.
Could be a little inconvenient because of the buttons on the backside

Press the home button and quickly guide your finger to the right. Faster this way.

Would rather say adding the quickmemo button to the bar via phone options is much quicker.
vol- + power do nothing for me. that's wye I'm asking
You have to push them both at the exact same time, volume down and power. It took me a few tries. What's really fun is if you take a screen shot of just your home page and then open it...you may find it hard to figure out which one is the "real" home page as compared to the fake one by pressing the home button!

... It's exactly the same way with stock.
If you really don't know and you've never used screenshot on stock ROM, the button combo is home+power. Hold the home key (not long enough to bring up the recent apps window) and quickly press the power button.
Note that in CM7.2 this combo does not work, rather there is an option in the power menu (when you press and hold the power button to turn it off/reboot).
Next time, use Search or Google.

or use screenshot ultimate from the playstore if you just want an app that can take a screenshot either by touching an overlay button or shaking the phone

Not sure if I'm being dumb, but if I tap the home key, it takes me home. Whats the use case for hard pressing the home key (which activates the vibrantion)?

If I am following you can either double tap the home button to go to home or hard press "one" time to do the same thing. I don't know the science behind it but I have found I do both at different times
Hard pressing it switches the screen on from when the screen is off or you can double tap it.

Don't need to double tap, a single tap take me to my home screen...
Just saying either way works when screens off..

If i just tap the home button when the screen is off it does nothing for me unless I press down on it

When you are in the fullscreen app that doesn't show the bottom bar you can just press the screen place where the button is harder and not swipe up/down/left/right and then tap the home button.
is there a way to set that side to take a screenshot or switch it to be the power button?
screenshot - i don't know if there is an app that does not have gui and take screenshot and auto exit.
As for the power button, I have try to search for an app, but they all triggers the "require pin" lockscreen. (fingerprint unlock won't work.)
And according to Blackberry, as of right now there no way to mount it just like the power button.
Yes there is

Go to convenience key in settings, press all shortcuts... to use it as a screenshot button come down to media and productivity and press capture and annotate.
To use the convenience key as a power button. Same procedure; settings, convenience key, all shortcuts then come down to device and press lock screen. This should security lock and power off your screen.

Yes but for the screen lock it requires device administrator so fingerprint doesn’t work after that to unlock and you gotta put a passcode.

When screen capturing with the convenience key and the Notable app, the 3 icons from the convenience key stayed on screen. Is there a way to get rid of it before the screen capture?
convenience key is not able to set any shortcut. Not showing the option to set it.
Is there any way to take pictures by pressing a button (normally volume buttons)?
Researched a bit but couldnt find something.
I know that you can open the camera up by pressing the volume button, but it seems there is no possibilty to take a picture by pressing a button (normaly one of the volume buttons). Camera settings dont show anything regarding to this.
Additionally to the icon on the screen there's gestures and voice activation, but I would really miss a hardware button for that as it makes taking pictures with only one hand so much easier...

That's not what the user is asking. He/she wants to be able to press a button to take a picture instead of using the icon in the camera app.

You can do it by pressing the volume up button while in the camera app.
