How to take screenshot of Android device screen
I just bought a Hipstreet Flare Android tablet $100.
I needed to make some screenshots to explain how to root the device.
Explained HERE.
Here's the results of my research.------>
Apparently some Android devices will create a screenshot if
Volume down key and Power off key are pressed simultaneously,
but not mine.
I read the forums and came up with this solution.
I'm not sure if the device needs to be rooted first or not????
I had just done a rooting of the device in my case.
java sfs must be running - check by typing java in terminal
You can get a java SFS HERE.
Connect USB sync cable
Click in bottom right corner of android device
See message 'USB debugging connected'
Steps:
1) download android-sdk_r20.0.3-linux.tgz and decompress folder android-sdk-linux
in a convenient location
2) go to folder containing application 'ddms' which in my case was
/mnt/home/android-sdk-linux/tools/
and launch terminal from there (a right-click option)
3)Next step ---> type ./ddms to launch app 'ddms'
4)You will now have a window titled 'Dalvik Debug Monitor'
You must select a line(any line) in window - see image
I selected 'system_process'
5) Go under menu heading Device > Screenshot
6) Click 'Save' to save the screenshot to your hard drive
