Feeling like a n00b, got the ICS OTA, how do I take a screenshot? I keep trying power and volume up or down with no result.
power plus volume down.....hold until you hear the camera shutter....

Same for me power + volume down do nothing (except put the volume to minimum)
Hold them both at same time for approx 1 second....

With some change of keylayout, I use the camera button as power button.
The edsion-keypad.kl
As photo 1
At
key 212 CAMERA
Change to
key 212 POWER WAKE
Please alignment with up line include space.

Then save and reboot, now you can't open camera with the button , but you can close and open screen with it (include power off)

So the power button calls the camera, and the camera button calls screen on/off and power on/off?

Kinda cool but why do that?..now you have to be left handed and push the power button on the side of the phone to take a picture ,right?
Unless u feel like tapping the screen which is hard to do while trying to keep the phone steady..

Maybe he's left-handed? lol Maybe a "I can do this am I'm gonna" thing... dunno.

Gotcha. Tried it, works. Any other button re-assignments that could be made?

You can try others, but make a backup of the original file. ^ ^

Camera key Atrix 2 is suck, hard to press --> shake -> blur image
thanks! it really makes life much easier for the incipio case - where the power button is a finger killer , damn too hard to push.
I'll try it soon
edit: seems that it doesn't works for mine :\ btw there are a few more files in that folder that have the key 212 CAMERA line, should i try changing them also?
Would it be possible to map it so the camera key works as the power on/off with a short press but still start the camera app with a long press?
I agree with the Incipio case. I ended up placing some small chunks of tape on the buttons before getting it in the case. It makes it so there's less travel needed to make contact.
Get zmooth pro, is has more solutions for you

Sometimes it will happen, perhaps camera button is working on wake time.
So, you can use camera btn to close screen.

Can we have slide to wake like htc does?
I guess it will save our hard button.

I think the camera button (after some time on sleep) still wants to call for camera, rather than wake. If I use the power button to wake, then sleep via camera button, that works. I can then wake via camera button and sleep, but if left in sleep more than 5 minutes or so, the camera button won't wake....

Will this work in recovery too?
While flashing other roms in BBM?
Please reply i too broke my power button.
as title, is there any alternative ways to unlock the devices without using the power button? for now, i am using screen off and lock which is able to switch off and lock the note screen, but still need to use the power button to wake it up. so just wonder is there any kind of apps like tap tap which is using the proximity sensor or another physical key to unlock the device?
With CM10 you can unlock with volume buttons. But it's not ready to use on Note 10.1 yet.
Pull out the s-pen, it's work!

quick question..after the ics update how do you take a screenshot?
You wanna cheat on words with friends huh... Lol...
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
Briefly hold down the Home + Power buttons. It'll snap a photo and be placed into the Gallery.

Have to hold them longer than you used to though...

I pulled down my notifications and I saw a notification looking like a native Android one but it said screen recording with a phone as an icon.
Didn't know the phone or rom (cataclysm) had that feature. I pressed the button under the notification and it seemed to record till I rapidly pressed the stop recording button. I now have a 5 sec mp4.
I don't read much and I have no idea how screen recording feature got into my notification pull down.
Any ideas?

That's a no go for me, too.
OK I got it to work. I don't know why the shortcut can be on/off like that. Thanks
