[Q] Samsung Galaxy S II - Taking screenshots of a video image - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I can take screenshots pressing home and power buttons but it comes up black If I try take one from a video.
Anyone know how to do it?
Thanks!

Not too sure.
But if you have root, there used to be a free app on the market called "shootme". Had options for different resolution images and videos. Saved by shake or voice commands.
Can't seem to find it anymore. Maybe just my Market :-(
But did find a demo "ScreenCast & Recorder FREE" app record 30 sec video limitation.

[REQ] HD Video Camera APK

Can someone pull the apk from j16 for the HD Video Camera? I had j16 but my phone had issues, so I reverted back to stock and rooted and lag fixed and my phone flies, 2200+ quad score, so im loving it. Just curious if someone can pull that from j16
Thanks
Just curious, why dont you just download the rom and pull it?
Not being rude, just asking
I just downloaded bionix j16 rom and there was no HD Camera apk, there was a camera apk and camera firmware, but no where was there a hd camera apk file
That's because the HD Camcorder icon is not an app but rather just a shortcut to video cam activity of the pre-existing camera app that was always there in JFD. Since some folks didn't realize the HD Cam was there, Samsung just made it more prominent. This is how I understood things anyway.
What resolution is HD 720/480 or 1280/720 im using bionix fusion.

HD is 1280 x 720

You've always had it, it never disappeared.
Long press on home screen>Shortcuts>Activities>Camera>Camcorder
Call it HD Camcorder if it makes you feel better. As long as the resolution of the recording is set to 1280x720 it will record in HD
Thank you I was wanting that back also. I have a one year old girl and it makes it so much easier to have a shortcut for camera and video that I can hit 2 buttons instead of 3 not a great big deal but you know how kids are one second cute and cuddely the next not so.

Small problem... No activites in the shortcut...

Activities is something that comes with LauncherPro, so if you're not using that you wont see that menu option.
You can download the app "Bettercut" and use it to link to the Camcorder.
Long press home -> Shortcut -> Bettercut -> All Activities -> Camcorder
Hope this helps.

Resident Evil 4

Its in Korean but fully playable. There's only a few menus/buttons I haven't figured out (mainly in settings, don't wanna break something that works)
I downloaded it from Google, not sure how I came across it but been playing it all day. Can I make a screen cast without being hooked to a PC? (My PC is down)

Press and hold the home button, then press the power button
This will take a screen capture and place it on your sdcard's Screen Capture directory.
I mean the high fps videos you see on YouTube right from the phones screen

[Q] Instagram like app

Hello!
Do you know if there's some Instagram like app? I mean, one that uses their servers and everything, it's just that one portion of my screen is not working and i can't make comments on the Instagram app or is there any way to enable a landscape mode?
I know of none, can you use the Web page in a browser and rotate the screen?

[Q] Instagram on ICS Stock crashes

Hey,
I have been searching for a while now but I cannot find anything on this.
Instagram continiously crashes on my S3 . It zooms, but pressing the shutter button its not responding and basically I cant take any picture with it.
Other camera apps and stock app works, but I have no idea where this comes from. The app works on my evo3d and my hd2.
Any tips, hints?
Thanks

Photo and Video Editor

Hello. Got my VZW Galaxy Note 2 on launch day. Really really liking it a lot.
Of course I went through and did the usual "disabling" of apps.
After doing that, I have since realized that the Gallery doesn't have a Photo Editor, not does it have a Video Editor. I was told these needed to be downloaded.
I thought I remembered disabling the Samsung App Store, but for the life of me I can't find it on my device.
I guess I'm looking for the actual name of the app, because maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing?? Or if someone has a link to download the Galaxy Note 2 Photo and Video Editors, that would be great too.
Thanks a lot.

I think I found it. "S Suggest" looks like where the apps are.
And you're right. Usually at the bottom. That's what had me so tripped up. Haha.
Anyways, still can't find the Photo Editor, nor the Movie Editor apps for the Note 2.
Anybody have any ideas/suggestions?

I had the same problem and havnt been able to solve the video one but the photo one I did. Just install the photo editor apk as a sideload app or you can just hold the button on the spen and longpress the screen. It will take a screenshot and let you draw on it.

I had them both on my s3. When I went through the play store they showed up under my apps on my n2 and when I went to install them they said not compatible with my device

OK - so I like the "editor" that comes up when you take a screenshot with the S-pen (hold button and long press the screen). How can I use that editor when I am in the gallery and use the "Advanced edit" menu item?
I installed the apk linked to earlier, and now the advanced edit menu gives me a choice of the linked apk and the Paper Artist app. Is the one that happens with the screenshot function an integrated part of the screenshot application??

Its a feature (that mind you doesn't cross platforms) that allows you to simulate writing on the back of your pictures to remember what they were or where they were taken, etc.

So you actually need the photo editor to be able to draw on a pic to like add a wig to someone or a missing tooth etc.. you cant just draw on a pic without the editor?
How do I disable apps?

My experience is this. If I go into the gallery and open up a picture, I can then hit the menu button and I'm greeted with many options. If I choose However, "Draw on Image" only flips over the picture and lets me draw on the back, not what I want to do. If I scroll down and click on "Advanced Edit", I get the option of choosing either "Photo Editor" , or "Paper Artist". If I choose "Photo Editor", I get the popup message that says, " Photo Editor is not installed on the device. Download Photo Editor?" If I choose "Download", nothing happens. I've tried numerous times and the phone does not link me to the play store or any other app store to download Photo Editor. While I know I am able to sideload the apk, most new customers using the phone for the first time are going to be awfully frustrated when they want to do the one thing Samsung is pushing in their Lebron and family commercial here in the U.S. Not good.
