Apps Taking a display shot

Hi everyone,

At first, I'm sorry about my english, I'm spanish and i'm not used to speak in english.

My problem is that i want to take a screenshot from whole display. I want to do it without human interaction, like a service, which launches the activity. I tried to do it with the getRootView and the method getDrawingCache but i didn't find the main view. Then I've tried to do it with a simply dialog box with a button (using the click event, and taking the view that it has in the attribute). This solution give me a screenshot from the activity (Dialog box only) but I have not idea how I can take a screenshot from whole display. Can Anyone help me?

Thanks in advance!!
 
Hi Nagare and welcome to AF! You seem to be doing fine in English, no worries there ;)
If you can tell us what device we're talking about, we can move your question to the appropriate device section for best chances to find the answer you're looking for.
 
My device is a spanish generic device called Vexia. It has an Intel Medfield processor. The minium Android version is 4.0.4 and the next update is 4.2

Thanks Kaat!
