Screenshots on miui not working? - T-Mobile LG G2x

Just wondering how to do a screenshot or capture a pic of a screen on a miui rom?
Well I figured how to do a screenshot on miui but when trying to do it it does not work. I cannot locate the screenshot as well when doing it everything freezes up till I push the power button and then push it again to wake it up. But still no screen shot.

I don't think they work on that rom. When I used that rom I tried multiple times to take screen shots with various apps and nothing worked they all came out black.

Depends on which MIUI I guess. I've only ever used Richie's but screenshots worked fine for me via the toggle menu in the notification bar until his most recent release.

Volume down and menu will give you a screenshot or the easier way is from the dropdown screenshot toggle.
Screenshot should be in sdcard/miui/screen_cap
I've never had any issues with this function so something else/bad miui port must be causing it.

Yea I tryed the volume down/menu and the toggle way but no good. I must have that version of the rom where it dident work. But I like the rom for the most part.

Our miui devs dont seem to use there own work cause they just port and put in tweaks they know of... and put out. It kinda sucks cause o2x people actually have devs modding and adding in features. And ya Richie's is mentioned a lot that his screenshot is borked.

Searched Google for "miui screenshot", the first result fixed my problem. I've gone through three different screenshot apps before I found that MIUI had it built in.
durrrrr....

Holding the home button and volume down rocker on G2x with miui rom worked for me.

[APP Request] no battery or in call restriction on stock camera

The stock froyo camera cannot be used when power is below 10% or while in call.
someone modded the gingerbread camera to be able to use the power button to focus and take shot. That was awesome.
Wondering if someone can take this one step further and take out the low battery lock as well as when in call.
I think someone did for the Tmobile Vibrant but thats for froyo only and has lots of issues with SGS4G
Download sgs toss from the market, it had the hacked camera that you are looking for.

Camera.apk.

This camera.apk works fine with me (no restrictions whatsoever, and uses power button as camera button)
But however, some of my friends say it has the battery restriction for them. But the power button still works as camera button. so...... Yea.... Try it out?

This has been discussed so many times! Searching is useful, to those that should've known (I've seen you scold rookies before) its a simple Google search, it is that way for every MIUI rom.

Soft key lites

Anyone know of a mod or app to shut off the soft(copasative) lights on my evo? I don't need them.
Thanks,

If you are running cm7 or cm9, check out this guide for dimming the screen, just set all the button values to zero and the soft buttons won't light up anymore.

Theres a app called screen filter that lets u turn them off
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
you could always install MikG 3.11 and run Miktweaks which is built into the ROM; it has the option to disable the illumination for those buttons.

You've gone into the advanced settings and checked the adjust soft key box? Then set the frequency to always off.
You need to check lux to never be killed. Then bring up the dashboard and refresh you lux value and then the settings should stick. I've found that at night the capacitive keys turn back on though.

You can try the link button to match the settings to a particular lux value. Honestly it took a bit of trial and error to get the settings to stick.
Do the steps before open the dashboard, let it adjust the value. Set your default back light % and then link it. Mine eventually stuck. As I said at night they still come back on. Go figure !

You can just disasmble the screen and take out the light filters for the 4 keys! That's what I did.

Dim/Turn off backlight of capacitive buttons

Some ICS ROMs have annoying always-on backlight of the hardware capacitive buttons.
Try one of these to eliminate/dim that :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.deskangel.adjbrightness
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.pruss.superdim
According to ShortbusDriver none of these work.
Can someone confirm this works - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26195948&postcount=4
No didn't work either....that would have been an awesome fix though lol
did you try to toggle auto brightness on and off ?
lights should turn off when screen is off.
No capacitive lights do go off with screen....just never go off as long as the screen is on.... for example when watching video a movie let's say....capacitive keys stay on and bright as ever
I see, it exists in CM7 as well.
Probably kernel related.

there's a bug in cm7 github for this issue,
I'm pretty sure Team Acid will take care of it.
Yes I'm sure they are on it.....I'm just looking for a way on my own.......
Just use screen filter it has the option built in

Thanks bro, this actually works, but I have to enable it after each button touch.
I put it as the app to launch when double clicking the screen on Apex launcher (currently on Erikmm's MIUI v4).

Do you guys want them off completely or a set amount of time?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
a set amount of time I think (and my idea, too)
I think it should be like 5 seconds.

Timeout please...seemed to be somewhere around 30 secs or so on stock.
edit: now that I reconsider it may have only been like 10 secs top.
I wouldn't mind if the capacitive key lights went off completely but the keys still work....which ever comes first thank you Erik

It's the same on all ICS roms that I have flashed, and I think I have tested them all
Screen filter is a quick fix...and if you enable navigation bar it works fairly well.
