Is there a way too add screenshot to power menu? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I am on Rem's S3 ROM and I would like to add the screenshot option to the power menu. My google search has led me to complicated coding for the Xperia only pretty much. Is there a flashable zip somewhere that I am overlooking?

Isn't vol down + power easier?

Well, hit the wrong button so enjoy your free thanks.
Most ROMs are Power+Vol-, but some like SkyICS are Power+Home key.

Install application from google play named as 'screenshot'. By using this just shake your mobile and get screemshot

Awesome; you can track how long you've walked throughout the day by the number of screenshots you have.

[Q] No lockscreen security

I've never felt the need to put a pin/password/pattern on my lockscreen before, but today I tried enabling it for the heck of it. I found out that I couldn't. No matter which security setting I use it doesn't work. I'll set up a pin or anything else, lock my screen and when i press the power button it goes straight to my homescreen. How can I fix this?

Don't know if this helps but, I used to have a corrupted partition caused by the Note modem that took away my lockscreen and extended power menu. Fixed it using Icenight's fix.
Do you need any other info?
Nope, already out of ideas....sorry
Kind of has me stumped. Mine work great as far as I know

You need to set the lock screen to immediate. It's in the options after you set a security lock screen

Back menu button cwm? (solved)

On gingerbread's cwm, the back menu button keeps getting disabled for no reason this is on the newer version that comes with bh's blast off kernel too. It forces me to do a battery pull pretty much every time I get into recovery unless I flash/wipe cache within about 15 to 20 seconds. Any fix for this?

It happens when you scroll through the menu. To re enable just hit the button (I believe) up a bunch of times.

You need to put and hold the phone in the mouth, then do a backflip, run 2 miles and drink soda, jump 100 times... oh, you dropped the phone? Start again!
J/k... Hit vol up and down at the same time.

Tried that but holding up and down doesnt work for me. The best thing is just tapping the vol up repeatedly.

i can confirm drive link works on vzw sg3. installed from samsungapps and work fine.
I think this is the worst "driving mode" app I have ever had the displeasure of using. First of all, it is FAR from intuitive, making you sift through several menus before reaching the shortcuts you want, instead of having the main screen. Plus, they put ones there that are dumb and you can't remove. Instead, they fill up the main screen with weather which, since I have eyes, I can look outside my car and see. Secondly, it is locked into landscape mode, which is horrible since for navigation, you want it in portrait, so you can see more of the road ahead not to the sides. Thirdly, it acts as a normal app, in that when you press home, it goes back to the homescreen. You have to rely on the onscreen horribly placed buttons. If you want a decent one, get Google Car Home. It would be easier to just use my phone normally than use this.

To take a screen shot, go into settings - dislplay and there should be an option saying quick launch, tap that and select screen capture.
Hope i helped.

the quick launch setting was removed in the jelly bean update. so yea use power and volume to take snapshots you need to get the timing right as you need to hit both at the same time not one then the other.

Location problems

My phone after many ROMS has lost the ability to locate itself. I'm not talking about gps either. It simply can't use any network to locate itself. Anyone encounter this or know what to do?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Explain what locating itself means and some of the steps you have already taken and did/didn't work. Elaborate a little bit more so I can understand the issue

I can confirm that every time I flash a new Rom it takes a long time (2-5min) to locate itself for the first time.I haven't paid to much attention to see if it's getting worst.

Odin a stock ROM and see if you still have the problem. That should eliminate a hardware problem.

I have just learned to assume people are. Especially people who are the only ones reporting a problem.
Your phone will use triangulation(cell), gps and wifi for location. It is really hard for me to believe that all three of those have failed. So either your missing the glaringly obvious or you are the unluckiest person ever to own the Rocket.
OMG I've been through this nightmare and here is what I did:
Yes you know and you already did it but make sure and here is why:
There is a Green button in apps menu (Google Settings) that overrides all the maps locations, ads, searches and other junk. Go in there and toggle location settings on/off.
There is a Blue button in apps (Google Now) and have that on too for now until you get it working but the Green (Google settings) supersedes all and blue doesn't have to necessarily be on.
Good luck champ!
