how do you take a screen shot? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

my friend just bought this phone yesterday and is wanting to take screenshots I told him I would try to find out for him

With the S-pen button pressed, touch the screen with the pen until it takes a screenshot.

Hold down the SPen button and hold it to the screen.

or you can hold the home button and press the power button and it will take a SS

BEST WAY:
Slide left to right on the screen with the side of your hand.

I don't mean to be rude, and I'll answer your question, but you really need to search the forums before posting a question. Secondly, there is a specific forum to post questions to, so try to do that next time.
The face unlock feature is not active in ICS on the TFP right now. We know that a portion of it is installed into the system, but there are no controls available at this time.
face unlock is not that great.
Face unlock is not secure.

you have to be good looking to activate it, if it doesn't work, then you didn't make the cut.
sorry.

I have an LTE Galaxy Nexus.
Realizing that its not secure, it doesnt work as awesome as some would like, and it does not come turned on by default...
Has anyone found a way to make face unlock work? Yes, there are lots of threads asking, no i didnt find any answers on HOW to make it work. If i missed it please forgive me.
there is currently no way to make it work.

i did say currently, there's no CM9 port for us until the bootloader is unlocked.
There was a poster here who found the apk in our system - data/data/ & need root - and tried to install it but it fails to take. So it has some other dependency that blocks it.

[Q] How to turn off "wake up" if phone is 100% charged?

If the phone is fully charged (100% notification) the screen turns on.
Phone wakes up.
If i use it in dark sleeping room i (or my wife) wake up and get blind.
Is it possible to turn it off?

You could always just turn the phone over.......
ok... its in a docking station.
not possible to turn over.
is there a REAL solution for this known?
Turn the docking station in another direction... apart from that I doubt there being a solution right now

The S2 is the same with stock ROM. There is no way to disable that. Only way to disable that is to install custom ROM/kernel.
Find it in settings and change to .bak, or freeze it if you use titanium backup?

How is it dumb? The OP didn't say it was in a dock in his first post. It's only logical if you don't want to see the screen, to turn it over.
YOUR post, sir, was dumb.

That is correct. But rather than tell him to just turn it over, I would have kept my mouth shut.
I do hope the op does find a solution, then he can turn it back over.

I see someone has no sense of humor. Shame. No wonder the world is the way it is....
I would imagine there's a solution for this that can be flashed. Hope some dev can fix this..

you would have to root the phone, then use root explorer or titanium backup to do it. The file name's are USUALLY pretty easy to figure out what they do.

Yes it is. Its a low tech solution, but a solution nonetheless.
Get a flip cover or put a sheet of card/paper in front of the screen!

thanks for the "creative" ideas
But these things are not a solution, they are workarounds ^^
If there is nothing to deactivate it. hmm. bad.
lets see what happens with other roms which i'll try in future.

Lock Screen Message: Why is this here and how do I get rid of it

Look through the plethera of areas in the settings and can't find a way to get rid of this on the lock screen:
It will go away automatically after a while. At least, it did on the s8.

Do it several more times. Like the first poster said, after a while (not immediately).
Factory reset fixed it. Along with my issue not being able to delete widgets
