I googled how to take a screenshot on my a20 and it said volume down + power, but all it does is turn down my ringtone volume.
Whats the physical key combo for screenshot? Just wanted to take a home screenshot of my launcher

Nice to meet you all.
I am a CM9 rom user with SII phone
I love this rom but one thing I want to have is a real time screen capture key...
before i am using checkrom, i can print screen by home+power...
but it seems that CM9 does not provide me a screen capture key?
anyone tell me how to custom a screen capture key?
thx....
Try VolDown + Home + Power
Works for me
You can also take one from the power menu (at your home screen hit the power button which brings up the power off/airplane mode/reboot/profile options).
Vol down + Power
Power + Home
Or you have to enable screen capture in settings then you will get screen capture option in power menu ( by holding power button)
Press Thanks if my post if un-helpfull !! So i should know i am still NoOb

Simultaneous isnt required dude. Hold down Volume Down Key and immediately after that, hold down power key too till screenshot is taken. But delay b/w Volume Key and power key should be less else you'll get the Volume Indication also in the screenshot
Cheers !
Simply screen shot app can do that

It's long press the on/off button to take a screen shot before I upgrade my phone to 4.1.B.0.431. But now after upgraded to 4.1.B there's no more option for take screen shot when I long press the on/off button. Anyone know how to take a screen shot on 4.1.B.0.431?

It's not working. When I hold on/off + volume down, the volume indicator run all the wat down and turned the phone to silent mode. I tried a few times but the same happen. I tried holding on/off + volume up and on/off + Home button too, but it doesn't help.

This.
Press both buttons at the same time and hold for few seconds.
It has to work, else you are doing something wrong.

Hey guys. So my wife's i777 power button just died on her. And to fix it I am thinking of using the volume buttons (press up and down at the same time) to simulate as if I am pressing the power button. Is there any such fix ?

CM and AOKP roms have an option to wake the phone by holding volume down.
Also you could download Gravity Screen Off which is a pretty decent app for getting around this problem as well.

I'm just wondering what the OFFICIAL WAY to boot into recovery is when the device is turned off...I've googled this question 15 times and ALWAYS come back with different answers....some say
1) Power + Home + Volume up
2) Volume Up + Power Button
3) Home + Power + Volume Up and when Samsung Logo appears let go of home but continue holding Volume up + power
4)Volume Up + Power but when you feel the phone vibrate let go of Power button and continue to hold volume up
5) Power down phone...turn it on holding power button and when you see Samsung Logo hold Volume Up
Even looking through threads on here gives a hundred different answers....Which way is the official way?
Thanks for the feedback/input

Well in my way just hold down the Volume up + Home + Power, then wait till the Samsung Logo and let go all of the buttons.
No need to press the home button on the GS4. Volume up+power until you see Samsung logo
If already rooted there is an app in play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot can press reboot straight into recovery

Thanks for that but I really was just wondering the way to do it when phone is powered off there's so many conflicting ways even the first two people who answered said two different things and every article i read is different
I do Vol UP + Home + Power until i see the Samsung screen. Point is whatever works for you is what you should do... simple. Tomato-Tomaado

Almost every way mentioned will work, there's no official way.
To me the easiest is (with power off) hold Volume up, press the power button and, when I feel the vibration, release the power button.
Whatever you prefer is YOUR "official way."
