How do you take screenshots on the Captivate/Android? The iPhone equivalent of Home/Power...
Thanks!
I do not believe there is a way to do it stock. But a search for "screenshot" in the market brings up a few options for you.
(From my Captivate via XDA app)
download shootme from market but your phone has to be rooted

How ppl here printscreen thier android devices and upload it on fourm plz?
i use LG Optimus One p500 with CM7 rom
Search Android market for "screenshot" and you'll get a few different options
Go to Market and type screenshot it will come out a few apps for u to make screen shots of your phone... I also believe that you can do that with adb ? I'm not sure... Hope someone with more experience here can help!
Thanks @the_scotsman @nodeffect
But what is the best app to print screen and share in android ?
Drocap2 or shootme seem to be the most popular. Think you have to be rooted also by the way.

Nice! Some phones have this built in also..

There's a nice app called ShootMe, you can look for that on the Android Market. Another method would be to get the Android SDK and go to AndroidSDK/tools/ddms.bat and grab the device's screen (via usb) from there.
i use app called Screenshot It. it even works on my unrooted p500

The best way would to be upload your image somewhere (i.e. photobucket, twitpic, flickr, etc.) and then get the URL to your image and you can reference that URL in your post.

Hey guys
Quick question
I'm having an issue downloading certain apps from tthe market
Currently I'm on the latest gummycharged build for GB. When I go into market and try and download certain apps (Ex. Yelp and Xeam Launcher) it doesn't give me a download link. I can view the app in the market but can't download. I tried the Market Fix and I can download the MLB appear but I'm having issues with other.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanka

Have you tried clearing your market data? Settings->applications->manage->hit the All tab->scroll to Market->Clear Data

Just tried that and it didn't work.
I'm going to also upload a pic of what the market looks like when I'm trying to download certain apps
edit:
added picture --> if you notice, there is no download link!
ok guys i just got my 4g slide
i noticed that it doesnt have the same lockscreen as the sensation
is there a way to get this on my phone without root?
because i saw somewhere on phandroid.com that XDA has an installable app
for the EVO (not 3D) adnd i was wondering if anyone knows about an app for the slide
Well you're definitely not going to be able to do it without root since it's a system file. If you try to install an .apk over the existing system file it just won't work without root.
If you do find the .apk let me know cause I'd pay $10 for that right now, it's really all I feel like this phone is missing! I think, however, it's integrated into the framework of the phone - since you can customize through the personalization menu - and that simply installing an .apk won't work exactly as we would wish! We're probably going to have to wait for a custom ROM to come out which hopefully shouldn't be too long!

Have you tried computerkid23's rom? Brings back the standard android lockscreen bar and gets rid of this Sense 'ring'.

Use NoLock (or other app to disable the stock lockscreen) and get Agile Lock.
Does anyone have an apk for an app switcher or info to point me in the direction to find one? The Amazon market doesn't have anything besides some swipe gesture one that is $1. Figured there were free ones out there I could grab if only I could get to their apks.
I'm not rooted so I don't have access to the Google Market.

getjar.com?? what exactly are you looking for
getjar doesn't actually download anything on the fire. My guess is it normally just hands the downloading off to the google market, so on the fire all i see is the download screen pop up for a second then disappear. Nothing ever downloads.
Basically I want a way to get the stock android task switcher when you hold down the home key. Holding down the soft home key on the fire does nothing.
I'd like a way to switch between apps easily.
I see that many apps exist in the google market that do this but since I have no market access I need apks.
I can download apps with getjar on my Fire....i selected the G2x as my device when it asked

There should be a "supported" Kindle Fire GetJar available now. Was supposed to be available by 4pmPST on the 16th.
When you choose the fire as your device all of the app selection disappears. guess we'll have to wait for apps to be marked as fire compatible.

I tried this. Prompted me to grab the getjar app from m.getjar.com, which I did.
But even then, after hitting download, nothing downloads.
I'm using AppSwipe.

This is exactly what I needed. Definitely not a nice as just holding down the Home button, but better than nothing at all... *shrugs*
Thanks!

This is great!
I've got the icon sizes set to about 100 instead of the default of 50. that made the icons much more finger friendly. Great find, thanks so much.
I just purchased the unlock code which is in the amazon app store, yet somehow the app doesn't recognize that I have purchased the app. Weird. The unlocked version lets you do things like launch it by double tapping on the Home button, which would be perfect.
I emailed the dev. hope he gets back to me soon.
Just an update that AppSwipe is in the Amazon market for the Kindle now. No need to sideload it.
Unfortunately you can't get long search or home button press events from the Fire buttons, so I have it set to launch on double tap of the home button.
I set the dock icons to be 140px which makes them about the same size as the icons on the home screen in the Fire launcher. Finger friendly.
Here's a pic:

works quite well now.
Would someone be so kind as to share the People app apk that comes with vanilla ICS? (I hate the Samsung version of contacts app)
Thanks!

Temporary fix: Download Go Contacts EX from Play Store.

I found an alternative to the dialer, look at ex dialer on the "play" market (I really hate this new name, I wish Google go back to Android Market) and apply the ICS theme.
It looks and works great
