hey, im new into those kind of stuff i just upgraded from stock 5.0 to cm13 and when i try to screenshot when i press home button it comes up with the google thing, and my issue is that i want to make screenshots like i used to simply press home button and power button and seeing that they are being saved.
what should i do
Hi there and welcome to assist,
There are two methods to take a screenshot on CyanogenMod 13 that are based on Android 6 respectively. The first method is more preferrable. The second one can be handy in certain situations.
Method 1
Press Volume Down + Power Button simultaneously.
Method 2
1.Go to Settings.
2.Scroll down to the Device section and tap Buttons:
3.Enter the Power Button Menu.
4.Activate Screenshot feature:
Now when you need to take a screenshot on CyanogenMod, press and hold the Power button and then tap on Screenshot:
You'll have to create an account to post in the main forums if you have any other questions.
Good luck

Hi,
Can you clarify 'works perfect' on the TG01 - I am using the (registered) Buttons Plus, but have only been able to get it to support a single alternative button press on the Camera, bottom 'Zoom' bar and right-hand 'OK' button.
Could you please share your settings which allow you to get it to work with multi-settings per button, and also specify buttons are you able to get it to work with ?
Would be really appreciated
Many thanks,

As known, TG01 don't have hardware buttons....so when I say "perfect" I mean as perfect as possible....
I don´t use camera button (I'm afraid camera could fail)
I'm using only volume buttons and the zoom bar.
Volume UP:
1. Single press: PageDn
2. Double press: PageUp
3. Triple press: Switch Display Off/On
Volume DOWN:
1. Single press: "Resco Audio Recorder -rec"
2. Double press: "Resco Audio Recorder -exit"
3. Triple press: Switch Display Off/On
Zoom bar: (Button #405C)
Alt+Tab (Change between opened apps)
How to map zoom bar:
a) Open AEBPlus (I have v2.6)
b) Tap Left softkey: File
c) Add button
d) Add Key (Touch the zoom bar: The program detects Key code 405C as Win Key)
e)Tap Add Key
You'll have a new button called Button #405C
Tap & Hold over the new line (Button #405C) and assign Alt+Tab to it
The program ask to self reset, say Yes and .... here you are!
some doubts
You seem knoweleagble: I would like to receive your suggestions
I onw two units of HD2, I am trying to understand how to use AE buttons, then I will surely buy it, but I have many doubts…
Questions:
1. Where can I find a complete tutorial?
2. Where can I find a help, to understand each functions? I mean, not FAQ, just a help file.
3. from AEBPlus Settings > add button > ONLY 2 hardware buttons can be captured (the one with white backspace arrow on it and the home with a home depicted on it)
the other 5 buttons cannot be sensed: I mean
- phone button: if pressed the phone canvas appear, the ADD KEY screen disappears and no key code appears
- same story for the phone-OFF button and for the volume up and volume down buttons.
4.
Since at least one button is recognized (the white backspace) I have set it to work as follows:
1st short press > open contacts
2nd key press > open excel
3rd key press > open opera
4th key press > calculator
But ONLY short press and long press do work! The other 2 cannot work (Therefore I cannot open excel and opera…)
Additionally: if I want to open CONTACTS, I just need to press short and CONTACTS application appears on my screen
If I want to use CALCULATOR > I need to press AND HOLD! If so CALCULATOR shows up. If I pull off my finger from the hardware button > calculator disappears and the home page comes back…
Please can you explain what I am doing wrong?
Thanks and waiting for any help and suggestions

Sorry Saulo, I have a TG01 , I don' know how this program works on HTC devices.....
hello everyone, here is a mod which will let you use your search button as power button. this package is created for those who have broken power button
by applying this mod you can use the search button to lock your device or to get the power menu
as the search button is capacitive touch button you cannot use it to wake your screen but you can use your volume button to wake your screen
today in almost every custom rom there is a option for waking mobile by pressing volume key
download
Surely will save someone's broken power. I tried, it works, and I will include it in next version of my ROM.
Good use for useless button! Yay!
looking forward on your next release
This may not belong here, but I thought if anyone knew it would be you... Is there a way to re-map the menu button to pop up recents instead of menu, and then menu on long press?

hi all
I have this chinese MTK smartphone running android 7.
I would like to add a fast way to make screenshot, better without app.
I know it is possible in android doing that pressing vol down+power button, but it is not confortable because all buttons are in one side of the phone.........and that phone is used by a pretty old person
For example, in the Huawei P9 you can find "take screenshot" in the quick bar options.......
That would be perfect......
Or in some phones when you press power button in that menu, among power off, reboot, ecc.....choice you have take screenshoot.
Or for example, would be nice to do it by long pressing home button......instead of launching gogle......
I know you understand what I mean.......
The phone is rooted by the way......
thanks a lot

It is possible to do, but not easy. I added it in the power menu of my Samsung Tab 3. You would have to decompile the framework-res.apk and baksmali framework.jar and framework2.jar... then you'd have to try to understand and manipulate the smali. There is an older thread on this for the S3 that might help some, but the smali would be a little different.

How can I screenshot on my leago kiicaa power Android phone
Hi,
Is this method working on Pie, MiUI 10?
I've tested both several times without access to Safe Mode.
Power on device
Step 1. Hold down the Power Button of your Android for one or two seconds. A small pop up menu will appear then on the screen.
Step 2. On that pop menu, press and hold Power Off for a few seconds. This will bring to you another pop-up menu confirming if you want to boot into safe mode. Press Ok to let the device know your confirmation.
Step 3. When you see in a small font Safe Mode written in the bottom of your Android, you will know that your device has a reboot in Safe Mode.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Power off the device
Step 1. Press and hold the power button
Step 2. When you see the Xiaomi logo release the power button, press and hold volume down button
Step 3. Release the button when you see safe mode on the bottom left corner.
Thank you
I have the same problem on miui 11
