How do u take screenshots? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so i know the phone isn't out yet, but the power button and vol buttons are on the same side. will there be new functionality to take screenshots anyone is aware of in Lollipop?

It'll still be the same way. The Nexus 7 has the buttons on the same side also.

Volume Down / Power Button

How to take a nexus 6 screenshot
According to this post here
On your device, pull up the image that you want to capture. Press and hold the Power and the Volume down button at the same time (for about 2 seconds)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Actually, the buttons look to be close enough together that you may now be able to press both the power and volume down buttons together with just your thumb.

Actually. Say OK google, take a screenshot. Lol. Jk

I usually just use two hands, as the buttons are on the same side on my Moto X and Nexus 7.

Big Button Dialer

Has anybody created or found a dialer with big buttons? The buttons I have currently are about 1.5cm x 1cm. My fingers, which arent even that large, always press buttons other than the intended ones. This is mostly a problem with I'm driving. On top of that, I dont use the smartdialer, so it is just a waste of space. If someone could get ride of the smartdialer, and enlarge the bottons about 3 times, the dialer would be perfect!

Search for what you typed as the subject for this thread and you should be good to go!
yeah, ive seen all of those, but i want even biggger buttons. something to get rid of the smart dial completely. or even cooler would be buttons that take up the whole screen with the dialed numbers in the background. that would be great.
look at this:

There's no such dialer in this place. They cook Rom's and stuff but big buttons seem too difficult.

Hold down the power button and I think it was remove statusbar or something like that just beneath the power off button (I dont have my xoom because its in warranty) then the black bar down will be removed

thanks for the input, My problem was not the Status bar, but the control Ui being all squished up-top, i emailed someone else who had this issue, and he helped me out, basically Just told me to delete the game with all data related to it, and re-installed it again, now its all fixed.
:victory:
Im not sure but it looks like you have a phone version installed ????
You mean pirated version? LOL
Anyhow, tried settings? I believe this game you can move the controls around.

I'm talking about the home button not the side buttons.
You can get home button stickers. Just search them on amazon.

....I have no idea how I managed to confuse those two.
What the hell was I thinking. Must've been a hard day at work before I posted that. I'm sorry. Could've swore it said how to raise power button.
As others have said there are these stickers you can put on the home button to help raise it up. When I bought a Spigen case it came with these "jelly buttons" that came in 3 different colors. But I'm sure a simple search on Amazon/eBay will give you what you want .
I used the aluminum home button stickers. It was actually made for the S4 but it fits perfectly

Damn that's bad. You sparked me to look at mine, which is fine. You should definitely swap that device.
No one at the stores nearby has it.

			
				
The capacitive buttons are annoying in the dark. Bright too. I personally disable mine.
Menu buttons on my white model are like on your pic. I think phone I build that way. Black model may not have that problem buy there are horizontal lines on both menu buttons. Maybe one day someone write mod to dim menu buttons

Look at the bottom right corner, not the capacity buttons

Touch Button

Why is there only LR on touch buttons? There is a T button in the explanation.

My phone is a global ROM.
Hi,
Does that setting only show up in certain games or should it be standard ?
I can't find that setting
When in game space (red switch top left of your phone) open up a landscape game and then swipe from right to left on the right side of the screen.
Then press touch button like on my screenshot.

this is so so so annoying, in youtube if you press any of the buttons or the fingerprint, it acts as you clicked on the screen
if you press the buttons while scrolling in chrome it slows the scrolling af
I wish there was a way to disable this thing
In my Chinese version the side buttons are disabled unless your using game space. The Fingerprint is sometimes anoying tho, when pressed in Chrome it wants to search on the current website.
So theyll prob fix it in a upcoming update for all versions.

Hi guys,
If you want to customise the buttons, there is a really simple solution.
Just install "Button Mapper" from Aaron SEGAERT.
It will allow you to get custom actions for those buttons.
You will be able to configure : Simple tap ; Double tap and Long press.
Of course, you can configure it do "Do nothing"...
Problem solved
Hope this helped.
Regards.
