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
don't work. running stock rooted 802 10a

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!

Curious as to whether anyone has attempted to remap one of the 4 buttons on the Shift as an alternate to the power button on the top of the phone.
Personally I can live w/o the "search" button, and if it's remapped to act as a second power on/on toggle, that'd.....be.....awesome.
I think the power button has to be a physical non-capacitive button. The 4 bottom buttons are just part of the screen and so will not respond to a touch if the screen is off.

Good point, I didn't even think of that. You're right.
Thanks!
Now if someone could get it to turn on after you did a double tap on the volume up button or something. That would be bad-ass.

This is a GREAT idea.
I'd like it if while in the camera app the volume keys worked as camera buttons.

Yes it is
Go do a search on the forum for buttonremapper (or the market if you'd like to help and donate)
requires root
I am using my volume rockers as camera
This is the button remapper app thats been mentioned in other threads
I haven't tried it out yet though.

I know what you mean, like some sort of 'profile' based key mappings.

Downloaded and re-mapped the Volume Down button to work as an alternate Power button (since i just use toggle widgets and settings for volume anyway), and remapped Power button to open Camera. Great app!
Sooo my Power butter is broken and i miss tge feature to take screenshots. I found apps that take a screenshot when you shake the phone. But I don't realy like it that way. Now my question is: Is there a way to change the combination for taking a screene? So instead of pressing power butten + volum down i could press trakball + volume down and take a screenshot. If there is a way please tell me
You are a great community thank you all :thumbup:

It kind of sucks. Solution with holding multitasking button was better, because now you have to press button in the right moment and it takes a while to learn it.

I agree it sucks, I have an otter box on my Galaxy Nexus and its practically impossible to press it in the right spot... Google aggregates me by changing the UI for no reason, the press-and-hold power and tap the screenshot option seemed much easier to me.
Is there a way to change this without a third-party app?
it maybe different with nexus, but I was looking for the same option with my Xperia (have a custom Rom, but standard 4.2 system)
I bypassed the power + volume option, by going to settings/system/power menu, and ticked 'screenshot'
hopefully you have this option in settings too

Thanks For the Tip
I can take screenshots with my S4 and IP5. But how do you take a screenshot on the LG G2? I tried holding the power button and home button simultaneously but that did not work. Anyone try this?

... 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.
