please consider using the Q & A thread for questions about specific roms....
Make sure the feature is built into the ROM, if not there are apps on the market that will allow you to take screen shots. I know the ROM i'm using has the option for a screen shot in the advanced power menu. Other roms have it as a combination of volume rocker buttons and the power button. But like I said be sure its a feature built in.
yes i want do that too

If you guys want it that bad, don't hesitate or take my word for it, there are apps on there on the market that can do this. Check it out!
I use screen shot it. works good
I use to have the ability to skip tracks when you hold down the volume buttons when the screen is off as a built in feature with CM7 ROMs . I installed the Inquisition ROM, and its not working with Power AMP Full version. It works on any other phone with Power Amp and other roms. Anyone have this issue with inquisition? I love this rom but i cant go to the gym or run or commute in the car without this ability. Any help would be great!

IIRC, it's because CM7 comes with these features. Sense doesn't have it, nor does inquisition which is (I think it is...) simply "de-sensed." So unless we get CM9 or something, we don't have that option for now. This is the reason why you don't have that, unless some dev implements it!

i guess i cant get it all lol it would be nice to have a non-sense rom with this feature. i figured as much. i just thought there might have been someone that made an external mod for this. Oh well, thanks !

Ummmm i just flashed the HD revolution with the latest firmware and it is "sense"....and this feature STILL does not work!! it did before... ughhh. I also did try to flash a cm7 rom and my phone kept rebooting continuously after i flash??
hi all.
First I want to say thanks to all developers, users and all those who invest the time to get shoes are amazing. A big thank you from us in Israel
I am using ROM Zeus version 6.
The rom look great fast and well designed.no BUGS at all.
What bothers me is that I can not use video call. It is very helpful at work and I saw ROMS that option is available. Is this something that's easy to add?
The second question. Is it possible to keep the screen ON all the time when the power is connected? It really helps when you're driving and not have to open the lock screen Every few minutes.
The third question is related to the MIUI and CM ROMs
Is it possible to fix the problem with BLUETOOTH?
This is something very important especially when driving
If the BLUETOOTH do not work, you should keep the phone in hand and it is not safe
The only problem that prevents me from using these Roms
Or maybe we should wait for the ICS PORT?
BIG THNKS

1. Talk with video installer:

2. BlueTooth on cm7 or cm9 or miui: If you can't make it happen yourself, forget it. Until Broadcomm release the source codes and until a kernel developer adds it into a working infuse kernel, it is unlikely.
3. Screen on for driving: maybe use a dedicated GPS?
Thanks a lot.
the bt is working with the stock rom and others . How it works rhere? Noobe question....

To get your screen to stay on you should be able to go Menu --> Settings --> Display --> Screen Timeout change to Never and you should be in business.

try aeon or try pulling the dialeractivity.apk from bigfau's aeon.
I think it is supported directly..i don't remember.
I think the dialeractivity.apk for doctorz rom in the captivate forum has it. whether or not it actually works with that icon mapping out the videotalk, i don't know.

Of course thanks to bigfau for the Rom.
But thank you for the idea.
By the way,AEON is a great ROM only is causing a problem with Hebrew fonts.
Maybe I'm just dumb and everyone else already knows about this, but I though I'd share anyway.
I've just discovered that you can take screenshots on stock ROM by pressing the power button + home button.
The screenshots will be saved in the same folder as the camera photos.
Maybe if people at least skimmed the instruction manuals for their devices, they'd discover these things sooner.
Umm... ok...

power and volume down also works
Haha, its been so long since I've been on a "mostly stock" Rom. Actually, I totally forgot about this feature. Thanks for posting this!

Any change a developer could do a mod to add the Galaxy Nexus navigation buttons to the screen? I for one don't like the physical home button and would really like the screen buttons. If the unoffical AOKP rom had the standard AOKP custom nav button mod I would be all over it but seeing how it's unofficial/alpha and the CM10 roms are very alpha I'd rather wait. Based on the info I found it's relatively easy mod if you know how to decomplie and recompile the framework-res.apk. I attempted to do this but kept running into issues and my limited knowledge of Android development (to say the least) seems to be the biggest huddle.
IMO, I'd still like the native button active but others would prefer them disabled.

It won't work on the stock ROM. But it works in CM10, I have it on my phone and am loving them. Just like my old Nexus.
I know the mod in the link I provided will not work on the stock rom. Thanks for your most value input and stating what is outright obvious for the mod in the link. No reason a developer couldn't create a mod that does work with the stock rom though. Already using a few mods on my stock rom.

There might actually be a reason. The framework is totally different.

Of course the framework is different, one is TouchWise and one is CM9/CM10 but that has absolutely nothing to do with a developer modifying the stock TW framework-res.apk with this mod. Why do users who have no clue keep adding their useless 2 cents? I now understand why the developers get so frustrated and the development forum in highly moderated!
Here a new thread to shows how to do this mod on any ROM. If I had the experience of decompling/compling apks or time I would do it.

Im dont know why anybody wants onscreen buttons? Yea the nexus had them and thats fine. But with 2 capacitive buttons and a hardware button, why have nav buttons that do the same thing? All its does is take up screen space no?

Because I'm used to capacitive buttons, it's clunky to use a physical button, and depressing the button off-balances the whole phone if you're using it one-handed.

It's funny how people think that because they don't mind the physical home button that everyone else should feel the same way. The screen is big enough that I don't mind losing a little space. Give me a "touch" home button and task list button that I don't have to wait 2 seconds for...

To each is own...i would much rather have more screen. However if they designed this device like the nexus with only nav buttons, then that would be ok. I just dont like the idea of having multiple buttons that do the same thing.

I don't see why agreeing with someone preference for something and calling them out regarding a statement that seems clueless has anything to do with each other. Unless he knows for a fact that the Touchwiz ICS framework-res.apk has been stripped of the navigation button code (not just disabled) his comment was clueless... Having a 1000+ posts does not make someone an expert and if he knows for a fact then he should have said the TW ICS framework has been stripped of the navigation bar code...
There are plenty of opinions on the value of the mod. The original thread link I posted seemed to suggest there are a lot of people who want this. This thread so far may not support that for US users... Oh, well... If there is no dev that wants to do this mod then I guess I'll wait for a stable release of AOKP where I can modify/add buttons too...
Thanks!

As I said in my post, "it won't work on the stock ROM". The support for it is just not there in TouchWiz. You can modify the framework-res.apk if you want (I've tried), but it just won't work. If you want on screen navigation keys, you'll need to get onto CM/AOSP.
Here are my reasons for preferring nexus style on-screen buttons:
1. I no longer have to overextend my thumb to press the menu button when holding the device with one hand. Usually this results in my palm hitting something on the screen unintentionally.
2. Once frustrated with #1, I will tilt the device down (increasing the chances of dropping the phone) to be able to successfully press the menu button. With on screen buttons I no longer have to do this.
3. If 1&2 are not an option I am forced to use 2 hands to control the device. With on screen buttons this is no longer so.
4. I will no longer accidentally press menu or back while playing a game in landscape mode.
5. I will no longer accidentally tap something on the bottom edge of the screen when attempting to press the back or menu button. Because it is a far stretch, part of my thumb will often interact with the lowest point of the screen before interacting with the back or menu button.
The slogan for this device shouldn't be "Designed for humans" but rather "Designed for gorilla hands".
If possible, I would also like to see on screen buttons on touchwiz.

Ok, thanks for the update and clarifying the the ICS framework has been stripped of the code for the onscreen navigation buttons. Really too bad but CM and AOKP are both coming long nicely...
