I haven't been able to take a screen shot. Is it still power and volume down on 4.2.2?

Power and home I believe. I usually just swipe palm from right to left

hold in the power button and the home button. You can also swipe from left to right or right to left with the side of your hand which works.
Thanks for that!

It seems my power button is hard to press. There's not much of a click so I sometimes I don't know if I pressed it. I wonder I need a replacement.
How's the power button on your Nexus 4?

a little on the soft / mushy side. requires a focused press for sure. in the official bumper however there is a satisfying click.

I have the same...issue? It's not so much an issue as it is something I wish were a little different.

Can't tell you, Google still has my phone
By hard to press you mean hard to find?
Takes sometime to get used to the button position, you know.
Moved to Q&A
PGM Nexus will hopefully be updated to support the n4 soon; awesome application!
No click, hard to press and mushy and way to high on the side.
Volume is the same way.
Bad design, just like placing the speaker on the back of a completely flat surface, who the heck approves these...
Maybe a few of you have sort of a defective button? ( as in not working as intended )

Easy to press but I always seem to be pressing the volume rocker at the same time. I like the top power button location on my Sensation 4G better.

I have the same problem. Its not by any means AWFUL but there are many times I attempt to press it and it doesn't press.
My power button also doesn't feel as solid as the volume rocker.
I'm afraid it will become unresponsive later.
Ok so it seems I'm not the only one with a mushy power button. I don't have a definite click that's for sure.

Power button is good, volume down sticks though. Contemplating exchanging it

This is for the latest CM10.1 nightly. Power and volume down doesn't work. It worked this way with stock. :'( loving my new nexus 7!!

You can always go to power menu and screenshot from there though it's really "clunky" (my vocabulary sucks)
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Settings-system-power menu. From there you can enable screenshots from long pressing the power button and tapping screenshot.

the proper way to do it is to hold down the power and the up volume, or down, idk, and it will take a screenshot, it has to be pretty good timing though or youll turn your volume up or turn off the screen.

Hi! Im getting my galaxy s4 this week. Im a fan of on screen buttons. I know there are ways to disable the buttons and enable on screen controls. But I also love having a camera button and I think that the home button would be perfect for that. Is this possible? Thank you very much in advance for any answers/help.

How would you then leave the app?
Far better solution would be to have volume key or power key the camera button.

Yes I was thinking of just using the home button. And as for just not pressing it, that also works but I'm always pressing the button by accident since its so sensitive. But thanks for the advice
I have read you are able to disable the home button. I was just wondering if you could do the same with the power button.

With the power button I don't think so. I wouldn't even want to disable my power button never know what could happen

I agree. The volume and power buttons are very sensitive. I've had an Otterbox Defender case on since I bought the phone and never had a problem since the case makes those two buttons difficult to press. But I used the phone naked last weekend and I kept hitting those two buttons, especially when I was in landscape mode. Real PITA. Plus holding the phone was akin to holding a wet bar of soap. Needless to say, I put it back in the case.
In any event, if you disable the power button, what if the phone locks up or shuts down by mistake...how will you power it back on? Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
You may want to consider looking for a slim case that covers the buttons, thus making them less sensitive to inadvertent activation.
