[Q] How to take screenshot with ChaCha?

OK, here is what happened yesterday. I was looking what can my phone do, and I heard sound of camera (although I didn't run camera app).
On my screen I saw this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I don't know what did I pressed, but I have screenshot of my home screen.
Anyone got a clue how did I done it? I didn't find on HTC site information about taking screenshots. I have to say that I don't have any app installed that can do this thing.

Same here ... I managed to take a screenshot by accident, but I don't seem to find how!

I asked the same question HTC support, I sent them a picture too, and here is answer:
Dear xxx,
Thank you for contacting HTC
Would you please try the Soft Reset :
Remove the battery, then re-insert it.
Note: Soft resetting your phone deletes all unsaved data.
if it didn't work try the factory Reset :
Notice: Make sure you have a backup of the data, if possible
While the phone is off, press& hold on the Volume Down button, press the power -while the volume down is still pressed-
Release Volume down, then follow the on-screen steps.
Note: A screen with 3 Androids will come up, Press VOLUME DOWN to select CLEAR STORAGE, and then press POWER. When asked to confirm, press VOLUME UP.
If you have any other inquiries, don’t hesitate to contact us again.
Please note that you can contact us via support line which is a toll free number 0800 982 773. For further details,please go to http://www.htc.com/europe/CA_Hotline.aspx ,
Thank you so much for using HTC products.

Not too much help from them at this point

Hold disconnect (red) button, then touch home.

Nice! Thanks for it! It works like charm

Works wery well. Thanks.
Just be careful to quickly "touch" home, as otherwise it shows the home screen and then takes the picture - so you get a picture of home screen, not of what you see on the screen when you press the shortcut...

This is so awesome!!!!!
I'd like to confirm that it works on the HTC Status as well, which is the North American name of the Cha Cha.

It works well on my ChaCha, thx you

[Application] GoHome for CM9

Hi guys,
I want to share my application called GoHome which should help to use Galaxy Note on the go.
I've wrote and shared this application not for the money. It helps me to hold Galaxy Note with one hand and use it with comfort.
This application duplicates menu, home, back navigation buttons.
If you on the go it's better to swipe on the top than try to press Home button by thumb.
This is a beta version (design is not ready for preferences).
It has been verified on CM9 (some functionality will not work for GB (back, menu), I'm working on it)
I'll upload it into market soon.
Application itself is completely invisible. Preferences show four color areas where you should pull.
Preferences screen and howto:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Download link: http://www.mediafire.com/?4y1y1qtm19hyo0d

What does it do? The pictures aren't loading....

Sorry for picture. I've fixed url.
It duplicates home, back, menu buttons. But all this is on the top of screen. It helps you to avoid pressing to physical home button which is hard to press on the go (with one hand)

for gb its okay but for ics?? navigation bar has the same options??

Yep, it was written for ics. Unfortunately my Galaxy Note is a single recorder what I have. I'll shoot video asap.

Dude you forgot one thing.
ICS doesn't need the Home button to be held down. Just hit the "Tasks" button, voila!
Its faster than yours.
Anyways thanks for this, it should be useful.
Especially for those that swap out the "Tasks" button for the Menu button.
But now on most custom roms (eg AOKP) you can customize the Nav-buttons and give them gestures: eg swipe up on Menu button to launch "Tasks" list.

[GUIDE] Here is How to Boot Into Safe Mode

As I was trying to take a screenshot of this to make a thread about how ridiculous Verizon is, I accidentally booted into safe mode.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I pressed down the home button + volume down a few times, and that is how it happened. Perhaps devs already knew this. Here is a guide anyways.
1. Start phone
2. Once you hit Verizon screen (or any screen past bootloader screen), either hold down power + volume down, or press it a few times.
Note that doing this will reset your wallpaper and folders.

What good comes out of this?

I normally boot into it by accident as well lol.

if the phone is running, simply longpress the "Power off" prompt after you get the phone options popup. I believe it disables all the third party (Downloaded/sideloaded/etc...) apps.

This is correct. It's a good way to troubleshoot the phone and see if 3rd party apps are causing an issue

[Completed] Problem with my Samsung galaxy S3 -Cannot access Whatsapp FULLY :(

Hi guys I'm new here.

But when I use Whatsapp I am unable to Change my profile pic,status etc. I surfed many websites.They said to click the Three doted buttons. But it is not there in my Whatsapp.
My Whatsapp looks like this and there is No three Dotted buttons

There is no Dotted Buttons.Please Give me some solution
Please respond this I'll surely give you more reps :good:

I think that when you have a hardware menu key the app detects this and doesn't display the 3 dotted menu button (since there would be no need if you have a hardware one)
If you are rooted, may I suggest button savior: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865525
It does work without root, but I'm not sure if the menu button is supported, you'd need to try and see

Not that I know of. If you are not rooted then there won't really be much you can do
If you are rooted take a look at LMT launcher: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
Both these apps won't add the 3 dotted menu in but act as a hovering app that will allow you to use a different method to function as the menu button.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge app to re-map power button to volume up or volume down?

Hello,
I have a small problem. My phone power button is damaged therfore pressing it is hard (works but poorly).
I need now to re-mail the power button so i can turn off screen when i need.
Can you recommend app that can do that.
I did get app named as volume powr but it seems buggy and app named buttons re-mapper seems to be also buggy.

Use Nova Launcher. It is the best Launcher out there (even better than the stock ones) and you can turn off screen by a gesture of your choice (e.g. double tap on homescreen).

Some ROMs allow eg double tap on the status bar to switch off. BatMan/SuperMan do that.
Button Mapper does exactly what you need - like you I had some issues with it, related to its occasionally not working. This was due to it being dozed by the OS (need to stop it being optimised) and by Greenify (again, exclude it). There is a Button Mapper thread in Apps & Games here in XDA, check it out. You'll get a lot of support there, the dev visits regularly.

What is your Android version and number?

In system info (in phone) shows Android 7.0

And check please ( Build Number)

Check this Mod
For me i like it sooo much.... I downloaded from 4pda
Make clock in status bar in the middle and have also power off when you press on the right side( long press open menu for: shutdown or restart or safe mode)
But make sure your Android version and build Number the same!!
Just download and install the file and make restart
PS: any promises I'm not responsible about it
And this is the link for the mod
