    which app do you use for screenshots?

    well, the biggest advantage of rooting may be actually the fact that you can grab a screen from your phone - so I rooted the bloody thing, now, what software do you use for screenshots?

    Dropcap2 for root user


    Tap start button and shake the device or wait for timer to capture screen image. You can also make a capture trigger from Notification bar. This works well with "superuser whitelist" environment.

    I rooted my phone last week and applied the lagfix. It's like I have a new phone! Anyway, today I did something -I don't know what, but the phone took a couple of screenshots! I don't know how it happened either! I was fooling around with the camera, taking a few pictures and looking at them in the gallery. I must have activated something!
    I have not downloaded any apps for this purpose -I am sure of that.
    Is there a way of taking screnshots -does anybody know??

    If on Android 2.2 or above (I think) Press and hold the back button then press the home button and it will tack a screen shot

    ...and it will save those screenshots in a folder called "ScreenCapture" on your internal SDCard.

    Thanks for the tip!! That's probably what I did. The screenshots were in fact saved in a folder called "screecapture".

    The back and home button, seems to work with a load of Samsungs as it worked with my GF's Samsung Wave

    I originally read about it here so I'll give credit where it's due :-)
