Hi forum,

my G300 comes (as expected) with Android 2.3.6. I have tried the usual combinations to take a screen capture on Gingerbread (power + home, power + back...) and non of them really worked for me.

Is there any way to screen capture without root / external apps in the Huawei Ascend G300?

Thanks!

Sorry should have read properly.  not found a built in way yet

So I understand there is no native way to screen capture in the Android 2.3.6 that comes with the G300? Looks strange to me...

I'm not aware of a native screen capture tool. CM have the feature as standard though, perhaps you're thinking of that?

Well, as far as I know some Androids 2.3 have a native screen capture tool. For example:

Power Button + volume Down button

That's only on ICS not GB and the video showing screen capture on GB is an extra Samsung put on for the Galaxy , as far as I know there is no native built in screen capture on GB you will need to install an app or use a custom rom if you want that feature.

Lots of apps on the play store claim to work without root. Work through those. Alternatively, use a camera

.. and your G300 comes with ICS via a free update. All you do is say yes to the installer. Once on ICS, screenshot is built in as explained above.

I assume k0va thinks they just discovered the screenshot feature

We had it a long time ago mate, everyone knew about it, and this thread is months old if you look at the dates.
