[Q] Custom ROM with an on-screen screenshot button? - Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus

Hello everyone!
I am running JB on my Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus and I am loving it. One downside is taking off the screenshot button of the screen and switch it to the Volume Down + Power button. Well, just as expected, my Volume down button is not working. I dont want to change it to the Volume Up button because I know that my Volume up button will die too. So, is there any Custom ROM that actually runs JB WITH the screenshooting being on screen? I tried searching but did not find. I tried some screen capture apps but were not quite as good as the original.
Cheers!

Try aroma rom.. check it on the development section..

[Q] Is it possible to flash a rom without a functional power button?

I'm currently on CM 7.1 using the volume button to unlock the phone. I want to try out the ICS port but I have no way of getting into recovery in order to flash it....Is there some way I could flash a rom without using the power button?
You can download an app that lets you reboot into recovery. If those are compatible with the nexus

except you have to use the power button to confirm a flash
In cmw you can use the capacitive buttons in place of the physical buttons. I believe the search button functions as the power button/enter, the back button goes back, the menu button is down, and the home button is up (might have mixed the last two up). Hope that helps
thank you so much man. that worked perfectly! got it all sorted out now. just gotta be sure to have an app that lets me use volume keys to wake my phone.

Are there any apps that enable volume rocker wake?

Thanks in advance!
WidgetLocker has the ability
Just tried it, checked the box in settings, but no dice
Uninstalled and got a refund.
Any others?
no lock?
or
Screen Off and Lock?
Thanks, already tried both of them because they worked on my og evo, but no such luck
Coming from the galaxy s2 I do miss the power button on the side, hoping to find a solution still

Actually, I used to have a Nexus One and the power button was broken. To circumvent that, I had to use an app called AnyUnlock. I turned the screen on with the volume rocker and you could also use a widget to turn the screen off (rather than using the power button to turn the screen off). Which I suppose could be useful if you have smaller fingers or something and didn't want to make the reach. Very, very useful app when your power button stops functioning.

I'm sure it uses the same method that the other apps use and it even says in the description on their app page that it only works on Froyo and GB.
Yea seems like all of them don't work with ics urrrrrrrrr

I was actually wondering this very same thing earlier today. Hope someone finds a solution.

Volume Rocker Wake works on CM9 Alpha 5
I've been using CM9 Alpha 5 for a few hours now and it's great !
The first think I set was the Volume Rocker Wake as the Power Button is not as easy to press when using most cases covering the power button.
To enable it, go to SETTING --> DISPLAY --> VOLUME ROCKER WAKE
it enables waking the phone by pressing the volume rocker EITHER up/down.
There is no way to specify one or the other
However, it works great ! I'm really liking CM9, my only complaint is the missing HTC Camera which was just amazing with the hardware burst (I'm still looking for a way to flash it if that's even possible).

[Q] Where is the screen capture button

On 4.0.4 you have a screen capture button. Simple and easy. However, when I update to JB 4.1.1, there is no scrrenshot button. Where is the button hiding?
I haven't updated to JB, but did you check the button's settings in the display's settings ?

try power+ volume down in the same time for about 10 seconds or power+volume up may work or try screen capture app from google play

you can try editing the keyboard files manually, or else try it with the Button Remapper app:

although i tried changing the OK key to Power, and it didn't seem to take. as for the on-screen nav buttons, i wouldn't mind getting rid of them, but my guess is it would require some fairly heavy re-coding. i have no idea, but it might be crazy dreaming lol. although maybe some custom ROMs that aren't based on the stock software might not have those nav buttons?

how can I use the volume key to wake up my note 10.1 ?

Dear all,
I have N8000 with a stock firmware 4.1.2 not rooted and I would like to use the volume keys to wake up the device not to brake the power button
How can I do that ?
Thank you
You can't as far as I know. However, you can install a widget/shortcut for sleep mode on your home screen so you don't have to use the button to turn of the screen.

In using an app called gravity on off, and it puts the device to sleep when you lay it flat on a table or carry it upside down, and wakes the device whenever you move it. I like it for the tablet.

I use also awesome on off to wake the device by motion but I noticed that it consumes battery faster than normal that's why I thought about a MOD or something to wake up the screen by volume keys
Why don't you wake it up by pulling out the s-pen?
