[Q] ICS 4.03 screenshot - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just installed ICS 4.03 on my Samsung Galaxy S2.
Now I've searched various sources online but still can't work out what sequence of buttons you press to take a screenshot?
I've tried Vol Down + Power, Vol Down + Home + Power, Vol Down + Home.
None work.

Hold for a few seconds vol down + power. At the same time ofc

Screenshot it app from market ( root)
Hit THANKS if I helped you

Thank you Malinnn, worked a treat!

[Q] Key combinations to boot into Download and Recovery Modes

Hi folks,
I am wondering if there are known key combinations to boot into recovery and download modes on samsung galaxy S II. I mean something like VolumeDown + Home + Power on the first SGS (I9000).
Thanks!
Work the same as on the SGS
Recovery mode = Volume Up + Home + Power
Download mode = Volume Down + Home + Power
Tested and working on mine

Are you sure you have to press Home as well? I thought Volume Up (or Down) + Power was sufficient?

It changed in the new 4e recovery, even the original SGS recovery method changed upon gingerbread update.

[Q] Booting into CWM

I can't seem to be able to boot into CWM. I can get to it by Rom Manager, but when I hold VOL UP and press Power it justs boots up. Same with holding Vol up AND down and pressing power. Am I doing something wrong here?
I rooted using this method:

That works, but what if I flash a bad rom, how can I access the recovery?
VolUp + VolDn should work - always works for me.
Specifically:
Hold VolUp + VolDn
Hold Power until the screen turns out
Let go of Power, keep holding VolUp + VolDn until CWM appear

I'm an idiot, I released power too soon everytime, now I get it, thank you all for your patience!
I simply hold both volume buttons along with power until I see the boot log screen appear. Once I see that, I let go of all buttons and I'll get right into CWM.

[Q] How to change screen capture key combo in SII running ICS

Hi Geeks
I am finding it very hard to capture my screen(screenshot) using the vol up+volume down + home + power key combos
Each time I try this I either increase or decrease the volume but am unable to press it exactly at the center.
Is there a way to change this combo
I am using Westcrips resurrection ROM 1.1 on galaxy s2 I9100
Thanks
A
are you trying to push all four buttons? screenshot is volume down + power only.
Some ROMs let you have a shortcut holding just de power button to takethe screenshot, everyone with Jkay mod, or AOKP have that option, that way you just need one button not 3 button combo.

but recovery mode isn't enter
i tried to reset or unlock the tablet through laptop with AndroidmultiTool and another similar softwares
but the problem is the USB Debugging mode isn't enabled
any suggestion plz

Hi , it should work with Vol + and power buttons , maybe you didn't do it correctly or for you is another way .
You can try this :
1. Make sure your device is off
2. Now press together Vol + and Power button at the same time , it will vibrate but don't release keys , once logo appear release both keys and fast press just Vol - button several times until you see recovery menu if that doesn't worl try the same think but with VOl - button , and second key is now VOl + to press several times.

I don't know try to hold long Vol + and power buton just hold like that and one you see logo release just power key, if that doesn't work probably your buttons is not working properly.
