1. According to Samsung, this is the case
2. Try long pressing the back button
3. Don't know, haven't tried
4. Hold Power & Volume Down for 10 seconds
5. Don't know this either.

Press and hold the recents key. It's been like that since the Note 4
Edit: Actually I just got the phone and the long press doesn't bring up the menu anymore, brings up multi window. Weird

They moved the menu to long pressing the back key.
#6, Yes you can register multiple fingers.

It may be a simple issue to fix, but it's annoying that I can't capture my screenshot the power button and volume down combination capture screen. I'm having to go to power menu and selecting screenshot.
Any thoughts as to how I get it back to default?
I'm using Paranoid ROM 4.1-Beta 2.

PA could be using a different method (or keys are remapped when you enable in reboot menu). However it could be an error like Samsung devices have and you need to reboot for it to work (I imagine you've already tried this though)
I'm just saying this just in case because I have come across quite a few people with this issue and they were just doing it wrong.
Power and Volume down at the exact same time. If either are pressed slightly before the other it won't work.
Have you ever been able to elicit the screenshot functionality using the buttons?
If you are rooted use xposed with expansion menu when you press off key only menu Inc screen shot comes up on screen. It's in gravity box and others

Thanks guys. Reboot didn't work and I'm quite aware of how to take a screenshot as I do it often but uninstalling a Xposed module must have fixed.
I was over Xposed with tweaks lol.
Thanks guys.

Guys,
How do you enable the screenshot shortcut with S-Pen ?
Earlier in Note 4 / Note 3, You can keep the pen on screen, and then press and hold the S-Pen button and it will trigger a screenshot.
The Note edge doesn't seem to do that, and I was looking for a way to enable it.
Any luck Anyone ?
EDIT -
One more Question, Ive seen in all YouTube reviews that in Camera App, Shutter buttons are on the edge panel rather than the App screen. Is there a way to enable it, or is this no longer available in 5.0.1 ?
BUMP

Just as easy to hit the air command. It will come up as a snote and just hit the checkmark and it saves it as a screenshot

I think he means after you hit the air command then you hit screen write and it takes a screen shot at that point so all you have to do then is hit the check in the upper right and it will save it.
On another note I use the side of my palm wipe across the screen and it works well and is fast. Just another option.
Easier yet.... Just press the power button and home button at the same time to take a screenshot.
Why not put a screenshot button on the edge panel that'd be nice.
If you have hand gestures turned on then swiping the side of your Palm from right to left across the screen is the gesture for screenshots. Also as stated before you can use screen write or even smart select if you want only part of the screen I use that a lot, and the power+home held for a second or so will do the trick.
I think there should have been a screen cap button on one of the edge panels tho. One of the pre-installed ones like the favorites one, maybe on a pull down like the ruler app.

I liked how it used to be by pressing and holding the back button to bring up the multi window side panel. I can't seem to find anyway to bring it up. Please don't tell me using the recents button is the only way. I liked how on the note 4 you could just press one of the multi window apps and it would open up as a pop up.

Never understood why Samsung still restricts certain apps from being used in multi windows. Back in the days, I would have to root to be able to use whatever app for MW.
With the app open, I just swipe from the very top left corner to the middle and it opens up pop up.
I haven't seen any other way to get the actual split screen though

You can open multi window three ways.
First you need to have a multi-window / split screen
compatible app open then swipe:
#1: recents long press (split screen)
#2: diagonally top left towards right bottom of screen
#3: diagonally top right towards the left bottom of screen
Good luck,
Have a great day!
There seems to be bug in note5 software and I've reported it to Samsung. Here are steps to reproduce :
1. Open Google play store
2. Press and hold back button for a few seconds
3. Now the back button will not work in the app so you can not exit unless you force quit it with the task manager!
Please let us know if you have the same issue.

Just tried it and I am able to exit the app. I held it down for 5 secs, 10 secs and 15 secs, and each time I was able to exit the Playstore App. I am on Playstore App 5.10.29.
Thanks for the reply. I installed the latest version of play store and the issue is resolved
Just tried and the bug is there. Not really a big deal as you can just press the home button or recent apps button to get out.
Not sure if people realize this but long press of the back button brings up app menus. It's as if you pressed the menu button.
So to confirm, you are talking about the button on the bottom right side of the phone? With the arrow on it?
I got excited when I saw your comment and tried it as I need menu button in an old app. Well all I got when holding it was the same as pushing the button twice.

It might only work in some apps. It doesnt work for me on tapatalk or Gmail but it works on chrome and nova launcher.
Sure enough, it works for me in chrome. I couldn't replicate in Nova but I just tried from the settings menu. I do sure wish it worked for CraigsNotifica though. It is not being developed anymore as I understand it. I can still use it but the menu button would be a lot better. Well either way thanks for the reply.

So there is no menu key on this phone. I find it very strange.. haha. I hgve an older app or 2 and there is no way to get into the settings. Is there some method you guys that are used to samsung to access menus? On htc you would just long hold recent apps button to access menu from anywhere. Is there any option like that on this phone?

Good question. I have old Notepad APK app that doesnt showing settings to import my old data.
you have to hold the back button
Have you tried any of the pie control apps on the play store or here on xda?

Worked!! Thanks
You're welcome! I figured this out when the g3 came out because they got rid of the menu button
Hold back does not work. Some apps it force closes. Some apps it brings up a menu with a quit button. But long hold back doesn't access the setting menu. At least not on my phone. First thing i tried actually.
Pie app? So i need an app to access a menu in a different app? What
