How do you take a screenshot on your droid? Is it only available to root users? Thanks

You search the forum....there are probably a hundred threads on this...Not being non helpful, but you usually won't get an answer when the same question has been asked so many times. People know you didn't search before you asked. I've done it too, so just search and you will find the answer....good luck...

instead of typing out an answer like this telling him to search you could just tell him what he can do. the search on here isnt the best tool and hes on tapatalk so thats even worse.

not defending him, but what if every one of your questions were answered with "do a search" response?

Thank you to abe. And to the other guy, i appreciate how you took the time to write me that helpful condescending message, when you could have just answered my question.

The search function is very bad, especially with tapatalk. I usually have better luck doing a Google search and finding something that way.

Sorry..didn't mean to be condescending. I've been told that on many questions I asked. My reason believe it or not was to be helpful. There are so many posts on the same question, based on your phone, whether you are rooted or not that have very specific answers that people put a lot of time in answering. Like I said I've been told to search, did so and found my answer. I should have just skipped it and kept reading on. When someone tells you to search because there are great answers already written never actually made me upset or feel blown off. So sorry and I won't be using that response anymore...I am anything but condescending ...believe me...

You should be able to do it with a PC and the SDK using ddms.bat without rooting the phone. Take Android screenshots without root | Android Central <-- rough guide of what I am talking about.

Even though I am rooted, I personally prefer this method myself, since when I am taking screenshots I am usually around my PC anyhow.

I've seen recommendations to do a search many times, can't remember anyone calling it condescending, usually a thank you from the OP and a statement admitting that they hadn't done their due diligence.
