I recently upgraded and I know I've seen this question asked before but I can't find the threads about how to take a screen shot with ICS so I figured to ask.
Thanks for replying.

hold the Volume buttons and power buttons at the same time....
You need good timing, but it'll happen eventually....
Or give up and install a custom ROM - With EOS 2.0.0, I can take a screenshot with a long press of one of the softkeys
That's not easy to time but I will keep trying lol been wanting to try this feature. I'm not good at rooting tried it one before on another device and failed.

It's actually just volume- and power, don't try to hold both volume buttons (or the + one at all.)
I will give this a try.

So for those of you that have ICS up and going on your skyrockets... What do you think so far?
I personally am seeing more responsiveness of my device. On GB it was a little sluggish and then I kinda got used to it, and now that I have ICS it's so much better. Apex Launcher is WOW on it.
My battery has lasted much, much longer too, and I've been doing tons of stuff on it this morning.
Can't wait for a rom based on stock ICS.
i like it but my home button wont work even after reodining and factory resetting any ideas
I love it,, what are some great ICS optimize launchers..? Like nova?

Can you guys download anything from the market?
Working now...not sure what the issue was...
A couple notes
1. I can't figure out how to take a screenshot now.
2. What's the home button problem? Like...in an app and hit home and nothing happens? Or can't use the home button to enter into d/l mode to flash CWM?
I have the latter; I can't enter into d/l mode to flash CWM now.
Edit: Wait...I might have it now. D/l mode, that is.
Edit: N/m. That was stock recovery. Any ideas how to get into d/l mode so I can flash CWM?

The other thread pointed out that taking a screenshot on ICS is done by holding one of the volume buttons along with the power button. So it's change from the home button in GB to the volume button in ICS.

I have to use XpressConnect to connect to my work WiFi and when I d/l'd it, it was from Market and didn't stick. Then updated to Play, d/l'd again and everything is kosher.
Just having issues getting into D/l mode again to flash CWM.
Were any of you experiencing bluetooth connection problems? I am suffering from the well reported issue of intermittent bluetooth connections and drops.
Im curious/helpful that ICS may fix this issue...

Yeah, I read that on another forum as well but all it does is make my volume go up or down, depending on which volume button I hit. lol
Does it work for you?
Edit: NVM. Got it. Volume down + Power. A little finicky at first, it seems.
Power off and Restart from Device options menu are not working for me, they just hang and I have to pull battery. Otherwise everything else seems to be working.
Powering down phone freezes. And the market is constantly force closing. I have tried fixing permissions. Reflashing. Not in that order of course. Nothing is working for me.

My market was giving me issues, but it started working better once I flashed the newest Play Store apk.
can anybody post a video of it?
Has anyone been able to compile this as a cwm flashable for us Rogers users?
Ok so normally if a phone were to freeze up or something happend you just pull the battery and then put it back in and start it up... is there a button combination or something that no matter what will alwaya restart the phone?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
volume up AND down AND power will force a reboot
Wrong
In official user manual on page 180 is that the when not responding press power button for 10 seconds then release to restart the phone

Your method works because you are holding the power button. The volume keys have nothing to do with it you don't have to press them.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to sound mean. I hold volume up + home + power when my i9100 freezes up so I can boot it straight into recovery

Ok so to start off I am a noon learning as I go so bare with me. But the usual shortcut (pressing home/power) for taking screen shots doesn't seem to work right now. I've only just noticed this since I don't take screen shots too often but I would like to know is there a fix for this? Or did I miss something wen i installed CM10...Other than that it's a solid build and I've enjoyed it so far with no other issues.

That might be a touchwiz feature, i'm not entirely sure. Somebody who's used CM10 on the galaxy should probably chip in
Its an option on the power button now
Settings > system > power button > check screenshot

Screenshot for AOSP ROMs is always volume- + power. It's power+home on TW ROMs.

Long story short. Its broken
So I need volume rocker to wake phone
Most ROMs don't have this feature except cm10
Is there a zip and can flash that makes volume rocker wake phone on all ns4g jb or ICS ROMs? Any help appreciated.
I wanna run aosp but I can't for this reason so please need help thanks

Download rasbeanjelly, see my sig. It is basically aosp with very handy additions and is the fastest rom available.

You can take your nexus apart and clean the power button with a little rubbing alcohol... I did it with mine just the other day and it work fine now

Thx kind sir but I have already tried it.
I dont like cyanogenmod but that's the only type of rom that wakes from volume rocker.
Not aosp

Codename has this feature too!
So lately ive been flashing roms like crazy trying to find the perfect one for me, and ive been having some issues with the phone locking up after i locked the screen and trying to get it unlocked again. the haptic buttons light up but the screen stays black. Just now it happened and the camera flash blinked a few times. It may just be a glitch within the rom. Im using Beanstalk 2.5 at the moment by the way, but have read where the power button could be the issue. I've looked at prices online for it and have seen it for $.99 to as much as $40. dont know what the difference could be in them unless they do the work for you., which just curious but how hard/easy is it to replace?
Thanks!
This doesn't sound like the power button at all. Look at vincom's stickies for the symptoms and trouble shooting.

If you are running a CM base rom, CM has a bug where the phone won't wake from sleep. You have to force reboot.

If you just wait about two seconds your screen will come on.
