hello!
I have a small question.
I had an iPhone before my HTC inredible S.
And then I wonder if it is possible to 'copy the screen'?
How to take pictures on the screen which then lands among the photos.

if you know how so please tell me:)

If you're talking about a screenshot app, search the market for screenshot, there are many. I like Screenshot by Gik Soft.

So far, to capture a screen in Android you need root permission. For IS, the temproot method works with screen capture app like ShootMe.

You can learn more about the temproot method from xda:
Temp root for apps required root access (for s-on IS) - xda-developers
 
temproot? so does that really root the phone for a bit for real? how would that work cos i thought the IS Cant be rooted yet?

temproot works for apps requiring root permission but doesn't change the system partition because it's still locked. for example Titanium Backup works with temproot but you cannot remove system app with it.

I personally like SCreenshot ER by Fahrbot Mobile. It allows me to take a screenshot on tablet devices that otherwise can't like the Notion Ink Adam and the Motorola Xoom. All other have failed to do so.

But as for a phone, I've been able to use Shootme without the phone rooted. By phone I mean the EVO 4g, but the Incredible S should also work if I am not mistaken. All others need root.
