I searched the HTC Glacier forum first to see if there was just a simple, singular "how to take a screen shot" thread and I didn't find one. For most of us, this is easy and it's probably why there isn't a stand-alone thread for it. I see people ask this all the time, typically in the wrong thread. Some of us ignore, some of us reply, but it ends up getting buried. I thought I'd put this up in a single thread that people can refer those who ask how. Hopefully it will help when searching too, since 'how to screen shot' returns a lot of threads.
*This is for root users only*
Download one of the many screen shot apps from the Android Market. I've used each and every one of them and ultimately, they all do the same thing. My favorites are:
ShootMe - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bw.picme.local
- Lots of features/options
- "Screencast" feature
- Clean interface
- Option to enable/disable shutter/capture sound
- Shake phone to capture + other options
*They also develop PicMe, which is a slick way of capturing images via your PC WITHOUT being tethered (your phone acts like a Web Server and you just access it via URL)
Screen Shot - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.geeksoft.screenshot
- Lightweight, no-frills
- Easy to use
- Shake phone to capture
You can also take pics without having root access, by installing (really just unzipping) the Android SDK, but most seem to want to know how to take screen shots without tethering their device to their PC.
If you found this helpful, click 'Thanks'!

how do i take a screen shot, how do i capture my screen, how do i share my screen, how do i take a screen grab
If you have a computer nearby and the Android SDK installed, hook your phone up to USB, navigate to:
Android SDK Install Folder > Tools
Run ddms.bat
When the window appears, select you phone from the device list
Click from the menu Device > Screen Capture then Save.
You need to manually refresh after you change screens, but gets some great screenshots, and it's FREE and does not require ROOT.
HOWEVER!! If you want to do this on the go, it will cost you or can do it for free if Rooted per the instructions above.
Yessss! Thank you, Talderon! I touched on the ddms method, but I didn't want to get too verbose in my little how-to thread. I was hoping others would chime in and this is exactly why I posted this.
Been looking for an app like this since the first day I got the phone. Thanks man!

It looks like screenshots via 3rd party apps might become a moot point come 2.3.3...

You can also use the app "DroCap", which is what I use. Available for free in the Android market.
yup drocap2 works like a charm. open app click start, go to screen you want to capture and shake the phone
I just never liked the Notification Area icon for DroCap. Even ShootMe is a little busy as far as screens go, but I still like its features. Screen Shot by GikSoft is very 'lite'.
Thanks for sharing though! That's one of the reasons I started this thread.
Here's the market link for DroCap2...

Hi. I'm looking for a program that could be able to assign a password to every single program I have installed indepently. For example, assign a password when I want to open Dolphin browser for example or another one applied to the settings option.
Also, I'd like the phone to start without asking me for a pin number. I know that is a very insecure thing to do but I'm looking to immediately use the phone when I wake up in the morning Thanks in advance.

1. Lots of apps like this on the market, personally I prefer pattern protection from apps like, Seal. However, you could probably find alternatives if you look at related apps. If we had Gingerbread, then we can use Visidon which is a face unlock for apps.
2. Do you mean when phone starts up? or when you unlock? I think you want password protection to be disabled completely. If its not from an app and from the phone itself, then go to Settings > Location&Security Settings > SetUp Screen Lock > None.
I tried Seal and works great. Very easy to use and do exactly what I wanted. I hope an update to gingerbread comes soon so I can try the other one (but unfortunately I don't see it in market, maybe is why I have froyo 2.2?) with face recognition. I thought face recognition was a feature of ice cream sandwitch so is good to know that for gingerbread we can use this feature somehow. Thanks.
We can't find it in the market because the developer set the minimum version to be Gingerbread so to avoid having people download it without knowing on 2.2 and lower devices and leaving negative feedbacks, we wont be able to see it till we're on Gingerbread. I've tried it out on another device and it works pretty well.
Basically Gingerbread added Front Camera Support to the SDK so that allowed developers to use the Front Camera without any... fragmentation. In 2.2, if we tried that we would have had a much more difficult time in getting the front cameras to work because we'll need to find out how HTC did it, how Samsung did it, and how LG does it.
Ice Cream Sandwich offers an official way Face Tracking, but that's still using the Front Camera so as long as developers create their own Face Tracking stuff, it can be used in Gingerbread.
Hey guys,
I just placed an order on Amazon for the International S7 Edge version. I was looking on the xda forum and the Playstore for certain tweaks that will help with the transition from an iPhone 6 Plus to S7. I will admit it's this is overwhelming for me, it's like learning a whole new language.
These are the apps and tweaks that I mostly use on my iPhone. Can you tell me if there is anything similar to these.
- Cydia - All in one app for mods, tweaks, torrent client, etc.
- Protecti+ - Allows me to only show you want I want to show you when someone uses my phone. I can choose to hide apps, pictures, text messages, etc. I can use an command to bring everything back like hitting my home button three times.
- GV Mobile+ - I use this app if I am selling something on Craigslist and I don't want to give out my real phone number. I am able to use a different phone number for texting and calling by using my real number but it's masked with my fake number.
- AppCake - it's a pirated site for crack apps. Just an FYI, I do purchase all of my apps and tweaks through Cydia but I have learned my lesson to try it out before buying.
- TorrentBox - Just an app I use to download torrents.
For torrent Client - flud has no rival.
For torrent search - Use torrent search app from the playstore
For cydia - there are a lot of applets outlet on Android. Do your search when you get your phone.
Protecti+ - Use guest mode on Android or use security apps to hide whatever secret you've got. Your best bet here will be to use the guest mode.
To hide/mask a number, there are a lot of apps that do similar things on Android. You might want to root and discover new ways of doing that. Google search and you'll find virtually all the steps needed to do whatever you want to do to your phone. Make google your friend.

Thanks for the info. If I root my phone will I still be able to use the finger print login? I hear mix reviews about Samsung pay not and is working with international phones.

I'm not sure about Pay, but fingerprint will definitely work. Moreover, there is a private mode by default which hides gallery, music, voice recorder and files. If this isn't enough, you can easily find new apps on the play store. Most of them have free versions, so you don't have to buy (at least at first).
If you do root your device, you can install xposed and get almost all the network & location spoofing done. I haven't personally needed an app like GV Mobile+, so I'm not sure about it.

Thanks, I'll check out xposed for location spoofing.
Google Voice is great if you don't want to give out your real phone number. You can make calls using a Google number which will call you to your real phone number then once you pick up it will then call the number your trying to call so it only shows that Google phone number not your real number.
I'll checkout Guess Mode. I only hide personal apps like my back account, settings, shopping apps or anything someone can go in and make changes.
Just going through these post on here is crazy. So much to learn. I just hope the auto correct and multi tasking is great on the Samsung. Right now my phone reboots 8 times a day when I
Multitask with my iPhone 6 Plus.
For Cydia equivalent, use Xposed, it works almost the same but you don't need to add source like cydia does.
I don't think we have any AppCake equivalent source/module, but most of the Xposed module came free with a complete feature.
for Torrent, uTorrent on the playstore would do the trick, no need to root, just install it.

Thanks, so xposed is not a location spoofing app but more like a Cydia, gotcha. I am familiar with uTorrent on my PC so that would work.
I don't think I need to root my phone. I am not trying to change the color my my keyboard or make changes to my layout. I just like certain tweaks like different multi-tasking options, hiding apps, location spoofing for apps and much more.
Xposed is what you want. Root using the guide on xda id stick to stock rom for now and flash the xposed files

Do you need to root your phone to load xposed and use tweaks?
Having used appcake I don't think xposed is really equivalent at all. Xposed will give you more control over our os and installing mods. You'd probably want something like blackmart or apptoid which are more similar to appcake. You can find these apks by doing a Google search. Once you download an apk it installs like a normal app. Doing this is called side loading and you have to go into your security settings and check allow from unknown sources.

Yes you need root. You will want to unlock your boot loader and install a custom recovery first thing. They're some great guides on here on how to do that.
Keep in mind, once you root, you'll never get to use Samsung pay, which does work on international devices. Where are you located?

Yes. Looks like you've learnt a lot already! And yes, in iPhone terms, xposed is like Cydia
Keyboard, I'll either suggest the Google Keyboard or Switkey. Both are free, so you can try them. Swiftkey has a special mode for the edge screen which is kinda helpful for me, so keys don't overflow to the edges of the screen. And it learns your typing patterns damn well including where you press for each key.
As for multi-tasking, its quite epic with the 4GB of ram. You should be able to do all your work. No reboots at all here!
I hope you have the International variant! Because it has a lot more support and is easily unlockable / rootable. If you do root though, you trip a security switch called Knox. This will harm your validity, which is why Samsung Pay would mostly likely not work (people might find a way around it). But in normal day usage, rooting has no effect whatsoever.
If your banking apps can see that you've rooted and refuse to work, there are modules in Xposed that can help you hide it. So its a negligible.
Anything else?
Thanks guys,
I will mess with the phone this weekend and see what I can come up with. I know it's going to be a learning curve for me but I am sure in the end it will be worth it. If not then I always have my jailbroken iPhone I can use.
Appcake on iOs, Blackmarket on Android. I can get any latest version apps(from the other country) when it still not available for my country. On Appcake you cant update your apps, need to reinstall it (cmiiw)

And then a handful of people in here goes on to tell you to root and install Xposed. Right. I would NOT root or do any heavy modifications to the device at first. You're coming from an iPhone and Android is completely new to you, so I would recommend you to get to know Android first, and then after a month or so when you've learned how to properly use the thing, then start looking for alternative apps, services, mods etc. Don't look at a product you haven't touched yet and ask your self "how can I improve this?", when you don't know what to even improve.
People around here will, of course, tell you to root, tweak the battery and launch it on a rocket to mars. Don't listen to them. You are however interested in some alternative apps to the one's you used on your iPhone.
- Cydia = Xposed, but the latter is much more powerful, and thus much more dangerous. It's a fun app to use, but it requires root, which will void your warranty, and Samsung Pay will be long gone. It'll trigger KNOX, and your phone will forever be marked as modified. You won't be able to make it completely stock again. Ever. So I would hold off with root and Xposed for now.
- Protecti+ = Private Mode, which you can find in the drop down notification center. You can toggle it on and off there, and you can set photo albums, files etc. to private, and the files will only be visible when you tap the Private Mode-toggle, access it with your fingerprint, and then all the files will be visible in the Gallery, file explorer and so on. When you want to hide it again, just exit Private Mode by tapping the Private Mode-toogle again.
- GV Mobile+ = No idea, but it's a Google Voice number, so I guess there's a solution out there. I don't use it myself, so I don't really have an overview over what's going on in that area.
- AppCake = Piracy is something that is really easy to do on Android, and it's a serious problem for the devs, so please don't do it. The Google Play Store has a refund function, which means that if you buy an app and you're not happy with it, then just tap "Refund". Voila. That's it. You can use the refund-button for about 2 hours after you've bought the app (or more), but you can easily get a refund after a month to if you really want to. The point here is that there's no reason to pirate any app. Pirating an app is also risky, since the APK can be modified with malware and so on. This is literally how malware spreads on Android. Cheap people who can't spend a buck.
- TorrentBox = Flud. Simple as that. It looks great, and it works great.
Again, just use your S7 Edge! Just use it and get used to Android. Are you bothered by something? Alright, it can probably be tweaked. Don't like the default messaging app? Okay, so just install a different one. Don't like the browser? Install a different one. Don't like the look of things? Download a theme or two from the Theme Store. You have no reason to root right now. At all. If you do, I'm sure we'll read a Q&A thread from you soon where something has gone horribly wrong, and you have no idea what to do, since you have no idea how things work
J.biden is 100% right get used to s7 edge before you start playing with tweaks and root.
Once you root you can never go back to complete original firmware as out of the box and you will void warranty. To some including myself that doesn't matter but many it does especially those new to android.
Don't rush it just tske your time.

Well put JBiden??
I wasn't planing on rooting the phone at first. I need to learn how to switch between apps, learn the settings and learn how to use other functions.
With my iPhone I don't even use custom themes. I just like Protecti+, Intube, Flex2, and TypeStatus.
I only use AppCake to try out paid apps and if it's something I like and does what they claim then I will delete the app and pay for it. But honestly I don't buy that many apps at the App Store because everything I need is free but I do but a bunch of tweaks and apps from Cydia. I just hate it when developers don't update their tweaks.
Can I download custom app switchers / Multi-Tasking tweaks?
Is there Visual voicemail on the International S7 Edge?

One biggest thing that I am still trying to find a good resolution to is group mms messaging and with pictures video mail. Imessage was great and reliable and didn't compress images and videos.
U should shut off imessage and FaceTime on your iPhone a few days prior to porting that number over to Android.
I also had an issue that if people sent me a text to a thread that was when I had imessage enabled, it didn't go through. I needed to have my family erase and start brand new text messages to me in order to receive them.
I am not sure if any of the 3rd party SMS apps out there work better with group messages, picture mail and videos. I think either one u use, your carrier will compress the file.
Hangouts and whatsapp is only good if everyone installs.

Typestutus was cool tweak but not something available off imessage platform.
There is also an ad blocker for Samsung browser on playstore that works pretty good.
I miss youtube+ on iPhone as that blocked ads and allowed u to fast forward or rewind ten seconds with a push of a button.
I haven't found a good YouTube replacement on my s7 edge yet that.
I would suggest fooling around with default apps prior to installing 3rd party ones. I used android allot in 2012 and I had a replacement app for all default ones. Coming back to Android especially with Samsung there r big improvements.
I am.currently using the default keyboard and touchwiz. U have all those themes u can download to theme keyboard as well as touchwiz. Touchwiz has many options but.if u still feel that's not enough nova launcher is all I hear about when reading.

Thanks for this. I was trying to figure out how to move my curser using the keys on the keyboard. This helps out a lot.
The only thing I am struggling with is finding a way to hide selected apps with a gesture. I have been looking at a bunch of guest mode and privacy apps at the App Store but I don't like them. I also can't find a activator to enable and disable an app.
How can I hide apps and where can o get an activator?
Thanks.
According to the Samsung rep I spoke to, there are only certain widgets that will work on the outer screen. I'm wondering if that's a defined list and will always be just that, or is it a matter of devs being able to add other apps' functionality on the outer screen as well in time.
A couple of examples that come to mind -
Maps navigation using the outer screen
Quick replies on texting apps. Whatsapp has reply templates and I use those a lot for standard replies. Would be real cool to not have to open the phone unless it's to type a proper reply.
I use Gmaps on the phone to navigate, and having an extra-long and relatively delicate screen open at all times isn't ideal. It just seems intuitive that the 2" screen could show nav instructions the way it does on the notifications shade.

It's loosely possible now by spoofing one of the existing packages. The reason Samsung Health was selected is that it was the easiest one to replace because you can uninstall the app. With root, it would be possible to override the other widgets without causing a collision, too.
You would think Samsung will eventually publish some sort of API for it. They are big on that.

Could you explain the bit about Samsung Health? Not sure where that's coming from. I've noticed Samsung has the jetpack windowmanager library in their dev notes that recognizes the fold state so apps can make use of Flex mode. I'm assuming it's a matter of time that they also do something similar for the outer screen, given that it's their first device with (a somewhat usable) one.
I've not been on Samsung since my S2 about a decade ago so not sure how dev-friendly and quick they now are.
