I just downloaded and installed the ROM update(1.48.409) and SD card, Calendar view, SMS function, and digital Picture enchantment hotfixes.
The problem is that my Lock screen/slide to unlock screen is now gone.
I can press any of the physical buttons, and my device turns on.
This is very annoying when I have the device in my pocket.
Could anyone tell me how to get the Slide to unlock screen back?
Thanks!

YES lol
You could have first searched the forums, saved yourself a post, and not created ANOTHER redundant thread, but here's what you do...
Go to the start menu, select lock (bottom left softkey).
It works after you do that.
Incidentally, if you ever have it that you press an email preview in the email tab, and it doesn't open the email, this is the same problem. The fix applies to both issues.
Well, I did try to search the forum, but didn't find anything
Anyway, thanks!

No problem
I had the same problem.
Start and then press lock!
After that it started to work properly again

So, basically, the suggestion from above works?
U can just tap on start, that on lock (bottom left). From now on your phone lock will work again (and also opening e-mails from preview).
Just wondering how you take a screenshot of your phone's homescreen.
thanks,

I am on MIUI and just tried it and didnt work.
Some ROMs have it built in, I know for a fact that it's in:
BAMF
CyanogenMod
OMFGB
And also, you can download apps like:
Drocap2
ScreenshotER2
ShootMe
etc
hey all...i just flashed clean rom 5 and it's working great, however, I cant seem to figure out how to take a screen shot. I've searched the forums and cannot seem to find an answer. Can anyone help? I've tried power and home screen and still nothing...thanks!
How about the palm-swipe?
Lay the side of your hand on the left side of the screen and swipe it all the way to the right side of the screen.
It needs the motions enabled in the Motion control panel, and it's all the way at the bottom of the screen.
Or you could just use the screenshot command that is built into Android ICS and JellyBean.
Simultaneous press the Home button and the Power button to take a screen shot.

Press Home and Power simultaneously, and HOLD until it takes the screenshot (only takes a second or so). This feature is absolutely present in CleanROM. It has also active in every stock build of TouchWIZ that Samsung has put out for our device.

I tried it again and it worked. I must have not been hitting the Home and Power button simultaneously in my previous attempts. Thanks again.:good:

Yeah, like he said you just gotta hold it a sec or two. It's not as responsive as snapping a normal picture thru the camera for instance.

That's awesome!!! I had no idea about that! Thank you.
I'm sorry if this has been brought up before. But couple of things I noticed after flashing 4.2.2.
1. The camera no longer opens when pressing the camera hardware button. It worked on 4.1.2.
2. The new 4.2.2 lockscreen allows taking pics from the lock screen (swipe to the right) but my camera never opens. When I swiped to that camera 'widget' all I see is a small camera icon in the center and a spinning progress circle that dissapears after a while (camera still not opening)...this is very annoying, the bug is glaring...
Anyone not having these problems? Did I get a bad flash? Thanks!
I think you had a bad update try repairing it in pc companion

Do you know whats really going on behind the scenes behind an update? Is it reflashing the full FW again?
I'm rooted and don't want that to mess things up if it installs files partially....

Try holding your camera key for few seconds and see. My camera comes after 2-3 seconds. Just a nudge and nothing happens.
Camera opens fine from lock screen if there is no pattern lock/pin.
My camera key works fine on 4.2.2 when I hold it. Even when screen is off it still serve as a shortcut
Is it possible to use the Home button as a capacitive button?
I mean, I would prefer to just touch it instead of pressing it.

Is there also a way to use the fingerprint sensor without "pushing" it before?

replace your stock AOD with this, and this automatically keeps the fingerprint sensor on without any effects on battery life.

For me this is unuseful. Lags and erroneous pressing.
There's a setting to have it go home immediately, instead of waiting to see if you're long-pressing.
The one problem it does have, though, is that it becomes impossible to take a screenshot.
