Hold the back button and press your home key.

Did you hold back then press the home key and not just pressing them at the same time?

In the new Froyo builds that started to pop up if you LP the back button it is supposed to launch a screenshot app.
I don't think it works on our Vibrants though.
I did it earlier by accident but I can't redo it.
Hey there,
just wondering why nobody had this idea, already:
Could someone create a MOD for our RAZR to get a real Camera-Button?
I thought about the "ButtonRemapper" APP combined with an "running-app-recognizer".
So when I start the camera app, the Power-Button will be remapped as a Camera-Button. And when the Camera-App is closed, the Power-Button should be remapped to defaults...
Someone could do this?
Sorry I'm not a developer / modder...
Great idea, very useful!

Now that sounds awesome! I do miss have a camera button.

The search button would make a comfortable one. Or the volume rokrs. Like on cyanogen and other custom roms.

How do we take a screenshot with ICS then?
Is there a built in native function?
It is my understanding that sony did not put the screenshot feature into their build of ICS. I have not found a really good screenshot app yet, but if/when I do, I will keep you posted. Btw were you part of the psp scene? Any suggestions on a good screenshot app that works with the tablet s?

Simultaneously press and hold the tablet's POWER and VOL- buttons. After a couple of seconds and the screenshot image is momentarily displayed, release the buttons. It's a bit tricky to do, but after a few tries, you'll get the hang of it. The screenshots are stored in /sdcard/Pictures/Screenshots.
Thanks Cat! I found this right after I posted, thanks for the info! I am glad to see the screenshot is a feature os sony's ICS. Thanks.
Thanks Cat McGowan !
Now to post my homescreens !
You can press the power-button longer and press on "ScreenShot"

It is only working on CM 9 based roms

Press POWER and VOLUME DOWN button and HOLD for 2 seconds, its very easy and accurate

Need some practice at first then it's easy.
Power and volume down works a treat cheers for the info.

ok i have done a TON of research but have yet to get the issue resolved. as we all know it has been well documented that the dna has issues with getting mms to work with an att sim card. hoiwever, i did speak with att and they said that my sim card COULD be the issue. something about it being a 3g card and the stream of #'s is not compatible?
think thats possible?
anyone else have any luck with changing the sim card out?
ill go out on a limb and ask if anyone has the correct apn or mms settings. i can get internet but the dreaded mms is a no go. i did manage to get ONE mms to come thrrough on my phone but i have a feeling it was a fluke. also that was multiple days and tries ago.
id hate to part with such an awesome device but i do need mms...
any help would be awesome!
Have you tried another texting app? Go sms seemed to send and recieve mms for me.

i did download the gosms app. however, i couldnt find where to put the mms settings in. is there a how to for that? im willing to give it another go.
Here is how you get to the mms settings in go sms. Just get to the menu in the app and follow the pictures I have attached. Then fill in the correct apn settings and make sure they save and it should work. (I don't know the apn settings for AT&T but I'm sure if you Google it or search xda you can find it) I would reboot after you change them and then test it and see if it works. Hopefully it does.
Good luck
If I have helped you please press the thanks button.

Look for an onscreen menu button or if you have your soft keys set up to bring up a menu use that but there should be some settings or on screen menu somewhere.

Well that's up to you. I would just flashed viper dna since the recent apps button also acts like a menu for short press and then acts as a recent apps button when you long press it. But that's up to you. Let me know if you get it to work.

While this reply doesn't address your issue, it does assist in better helping the community help you...
Rather than posting a slightly blurry sideways pic that can be hard on the eyes depending on ambient light, you should instead take a screenshot and post that. To take a screenshot, hold power and home simultaneously.

Thanks for the advice but power and home didn't work for me. I tried taking a screen shot using the option on the power menu on the Rom I'm using but for some reason it just showed as a black screen. It works taking a screenshot except in the settings for some reason.
