Call screen - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to change the look of the screen when in a call? Running 2.2 and find not only the pattern of the background on this screen to be ugly, but it is the only screen on my streak which seems to have a terrible resolution.

I've noticed sometimes my Google widget moves on the display often even overlapping other widgets. When it does I have to press where it used to be to recognize a screen tap. Are you able to use the widget? If not, try tapping somewhere else on the screen?!

A screenshot app that works?

Hello,
I've tried a few different screenshot apps but they all appear to come out completely wrong. Some are the wrong colour, but the biggest issue is that they never come out in the correct orientation!!
If I take a screenshot in landscape mode, it comes out 90° clockwise to the screen, if I take one in portrait, it comes out 180°... totally upside down. Even if I rotate it, when I upload the image somewhere it shows in the wrong orientation.
Its happened on 315 and does it now on 318..

theres a thread somewhere in xda that said apparently the lcd was mounted upside down in the streak, thats why the images come out weird, happens to all screenshot apps

No way!! So, is there a fix for this?
As I said, even when I rotate the images, when I upload them they appear upside down again...

However you rotate the images make sure that when you save the image that the exif orientation information is being saved. Some programs/apps don't save the orientation unless a setting is set properly. How to do this can vary from program to program.
Ok, I will look into it. Thanks.

I've found that screenshot it appears to have a tick box to rotate images 180 deg. This could be useful, but the dev has to work on a red tint issue that appears to consume every screenshot I make..

To get rid of the red tint. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008494

The suggestion is to use two apps which show the image as upside down when the screenshot is taken, which is exactly why I went with screenshot it. I can wait on the dev to fix the tint and will then have an awesome app.

I can rotate the image easier than I can fix the color shift.
Knowing the dev is working on a fix for the red tint, I have the patience to wait for a fully working app.

Screenshot it now works on Streak!!

I've recently been testing Screenshot it on the Streak for the dev, and can now confirm it takes screenshots in the correct orientation and without the red tint!
I guess this is the first fully working app, so anyone who wants a great screenshot app should find it in the market immediately!

Screenshot by gik soft has always worked fine on the streak.
but it's always nice having an alternative for whatever reason
No it doesn't, the image comes out upside down.
Screenshot it is the only one I've found that corrects the orientation.

dont think i would pay $4 just because the image is auto rotated in portrait when gallery has it itself.
I found that even after rotating in the gallery, when I upload to buzz/facebook etc, the image is still upside down.

Just updated to 1.991 and the orientation works but my screeshots have a bluish tint. When i select the option to invert the colors, the screenshots have the heavy red tint. I am on retail 351.

Same here on 318. It is sooooo hit and miss with the streak and screenshot apps.

I'm currently on 318 without any tint.
Would you be able to contact the dev via app market?
He's waiting on feedback.

I'm using 351 and it fails on both normal and inverted colours.

Awfully strange that it works for me but fails for others :-/
The dev is waiting on feedback though. Tap him up as he's wanting to get it working for us.

yeah screenshot it works...you just need to clarify to change orientation in the settings but id rather just edit them myself then pay 4 bucks for it...
Personal preference I guess. Even when I rotated the images, they would still show up upside down when I uploaded them. At least this works properly for me.

I've got version 2.0 & for the first time
taking a screenshot works to the full.
Of course, one still has to tick the box
"flip picture", not to get it upside down.
I tried every version of every screenshot
app so far, & this is the very first to work.
The app "screenshot" mentioned above, was
never able to present the picture other than
upside down, although the colors were correct.
Screenshot It, on the other hand, was able to
flip the picture, but never with correct colors.
I still used the "Screenshot" app until now, since
it was simple to get the picture flipped anyway.
You just took a shot, & then another shot of the
shot - voila! Picture not upside down anymore.
Now I don't need to perform those acrobatics anylonger...
Haha! I never thought about taking a shot of a screenshot...
Glad you have a better solution now

Try taking a screen shot of your pull down top bar and sending to an iphone.. LMAO

Clicking sound when touching menu button

My 5-month old Streak makes an odd click/pop sound when I touch the menu button. This seems strange, as there are no moving parts that I'm aware of under there. I have the haptic feedback turned off (normal practice of mine for battery conservation)..... Everything else seems to be normal. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

I've noticed this with my back button. I get the feeling it has to do with build quality inconsistency, as my previous one didn't do it.
