I would like to take screen shot of my app and I would like to share that screen shot in mail,blue tooth,social medias etc.. I don't know how to perform screen shot and to share it how it can be done?
to include screenshot function your app, you need to grand superuser permission... In other words, third party apps can only take screenshot on rooted device, oru your app should be installed as a system app...
1.Start the app in Debug Mode.
2.click Android to open the Android DDMS tool window.
3. Click Screen Capture on the left side of the Android DDMS tool window.
4. Optional: To add a device frame around your screenshot, enable the Frame and take the screenshot option.
and Save It
You can even try printscreen or snipping tool in windows.. and edit the view as you want
The newly manufactures Android smartphones are already receiving very easy methods to take screenshot on them. So, you do not require any third party application or software for this purpose rather you will have to use the easy and reliable method to do so, which is also the time saving feature in this time-valued world.
So, I will share the easy method to take screenshot on Samsung Galaxy trend,
Method – Take Screenshot using Hardware Combination Method
STEP 1 – You will notice Power Key on the right side of the phone and Volume keys on the left hand side.
STEP 2 – Now press and hold the two keys for about 2 seconds.
Your screenshot will be taken and stored in the phone’s memory.

How can I create a Android screenshot from the smartphone itself and place a smartphone around like you can see it on this page: http://hskampus.de/?
You can make a screenshot by pressing volume down and power button at the same time.
Then you can use the Android Device Art Generator to generate the device around it.
Take a screenshot of the android screen, and then edit it into the smartphone picture, add some effect and you're done.
I am planning to build an app which needs a screenshot. My requirement is to launch the app when the designated key presses are executed. (i.e. like volume up+lock key for taking screen shot in windows phone). My app will then launch automatically for further processing of that image. Is it possible to build or is there any work around for that?
Thanks in advance.
There is no way to build such app for Windows Phone.
Even if an app is running it can't get access to hardware keys except BackKey.
App can't run in the backgroud. After user leaves app it goes suspend and only couple of BackgroundTask can be launched to run in background at that moment.
EDIT
To be clear your app on Windows Phone 8.1 can be done but it'll work like following:
User takes screenshot, goes to gallery and choosing to share it.
Your app must declare that it can receive image (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh871367.aspx)
User see your app in share list, choose it and than your app gets screenshot and may start to work with it.
Adding on what #khamitimur has posted. You will be able to only list down the third party apps installed within your Windows Phone device programmatically but not to launch them using any hardware parts of the device.
P.s : The developers have not yet been given any access or API to hardware parts in order to trigger events from those.
I have a Geniatech ATV1220 android set top box running android 4.2.2 and am using an arduino with motion sensor connected to it to modify content on a website when someone is in front of the sensor via NodeJS.
This works great, but what I would like to do is to manipulte the complete system viewport of the android system. For example if someone steps in front of the sensor, the whole system should be displayed in a reduced size like 1/4 original at the bottom right side of the screen while the other area should just display black or basically nothing.
It is really hard to find something because of the pretty common keywords like display, viewport, size and so on. I could probably do it dependent on individual applications but I also want to use it in third party applications, which I cannot modify.
Currently I am sometimes using commands like this:
echo 1 >/sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank
to modify the actual content that is displayed, in this case it all turns black/blank and I wonder if there is a similar way to achieve what I want to do. Any help is greatly appreciated.
What worked in the end was using the Xposed Framework and installing "One-handed mode" like explained here: How to get a one-handed mode on almost any rooted Android device.
I am currently working on an application in-which I need to take the screenshot of the homepage and also is it possible to get the exact location and count of the user's homepage widgets. i.e how many widgets are placed on user home page and whats there location or position on screen. X axis and Y axis coordinates etc.
For taking screenshots; Yes, it's possible, using the SDK, and the DDMS utility. Example here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3h1EYExu7c
For widgets on home-screen, not AFAIK. A problem that immediately arises is; what if the user have switched to other 3d-party HOME-screen with different widget-model? (For example, not grid-aligned, rendered on 3d surfaces or whatnot)
To avoid you going to youtube, I'm posting the content here:
Want to take a screenshot, but don't want to root your phone? Here is
how:
1) Install the Android SDK
2) Enable USB debugging on your device
3) Run DDMS from the tools directory
4) Select your phone from the list
5) Go in the menu, select Device, and then Screen capture. Whalah.

Android DDMS allow screen capture from an emulator.
Search for screen capture in the DDMS tool documentation .
