Root [ROM] Mobster Rom HD/Lite - 031513

Is it possible to get back to a more conventional screenshot? I'd much rather prefer pwr + home or pwr + vol for screenshots.

Holding down power to get the screenshot options takes an extra second, and sometimes, that second is exactly what you wanted to capture.

Also, I just tried to take a screenshot while in the notifications. Pressing the power button for a second caused the notifications to go away, and then i was prompted with the option of taking a shot of the screen. So it doesn't seem like you can take a screenshot of the notifications using this method.

Now I can't confirm that a stock ROM could take a screenshot of the notifications, as I don't know what happens when you press pwr + home from the notificaitons on stock ROM. I might restore a stock NAND and test it if I get curious...

So to sum up...

Is it possible to get pwr + home or pwr + vol screenshots implemented in the next release of Mobster?

Power+volume down still works. That's the only way I take screen shots.

Not for me :hmmmm2: :(

EDIT:

I reverted to a NAND of Mobster before I changed the kernel to Buttered Toast. Pwr + home now works again, but pwr + vol dwn doesn't. In fact, my phone didn't take screenshots with pwr + vol dwn even when it was 100% stock. I was able to take a screenshot once while stock using the pwr + vol dwn, but after a reboot, that feature went away.

So now, is buttered toast interfering with my pwr + home? Could sweep to wake be causing an interference? Also, why the heck would pwr + vol dwn not work for me even when stock?
 
FYI, I'm pretty sure Buttered Toast changed/removed the screenshot feature...I'd suggest asking Big Willy on XDA if he did. But if I use Mobster ROM with Ziggy kernel, screenshots home+power.

The plot thickens. I am writing in a Buttered Toast thread, and will summarize here what I found there...but in here, there will be less stream of consciousness.

If I skip sweep to wake in the Aroma installer for BT, screenshots still work with pwr+home. However, if I use Kernel Tuner to turn on sweep to wake (even though I never enabled that feature in Aroma) without having the home button being part of the sweep, I can still take screenshots with pwr+home, and I can even take screenshots with a full right to left sweep (starting with search, ending with home).

Putting the home button into the sweep to wake mix messes up screenshots. The most interesting thing to me is that sweep to screenshot works. Was there ever a sweep to screenshot app? Did the sweep to wake app build on the sweep to screenshot?
 
Does this rom suppoty OTG? I bought the necessary cable and an MHL adapter, but I realized I need a rom that supports OTG.
 
Got a quick Q. Why is the Message UI from Sense with this ROM? It like clashes with the senseless mod done by Mobster. Any way to make it look like the google "holo" design or whatever its called? I dont really want to install a 3rd party app to get it done but I may end up doing it if I cant do anything about it. (Sense message UI looks silver/lame, would like the dark/blue look that is throughout the UI of the ROM.)
 
Is anyone having a problem when every app just won't work? I reflashed this rom after coming back from the Wild Card rom. I had created a backup, but it won't appear in the backup section in TWRP, probably because I renamed it on my computer. Now, my keyboard will not work and there are many popups of apps force closing. Is there a way to get this fixed up?

Edit: NVM I posted a separate thread.
 
Is this possible on your rom? Lol I mean with the JB+ clock and all...

Yes i'm using this theme minus the Ubuntu Wallpapers and tweaked to my liking so yeah it'll work

Edit: I've attached some screenshots of what it looks like on my phone

Edit2: For better performance i added these 2 lines to the build.prop

Code:
sys.keep_app_1=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker
sys.keep_app_1=com.tfs.shell
