hi all

apologies for this post but ive done a fair bit of searching on net in general but cant see a clear answer :/

does 2.2 have screen capture feature ? ive seen some post that mention back button+home but that doesnt work on my unrooted desire

or do i still have to install/run sdk ?

thanks
dan
 
You can do it with a rooted phone, but I use the method linked above. It takes a little time to set up, but now I just plug in my phone, click a link on my desktop, and capture the screen.

Can't understand why the feature isn't included in Android to be honest, customization is what Android does best! You can take screen grabs with an iPhone, but they all look the same anyway so what's the point? ;)
