Have they ever worked, or are you not sure how to turn them on?

I have turned all gestures on for testing, and now the printscreen gesture is the only one that doesnt work.

And suddenly now the smart pause felt like not responding at all ...

So they are working??? I don't have "printscreen gesture", but that could be just my provider did not want that option.

Provider? doesnt matter if it is the quad or octa core version, both has the same UI.

Not sure why you have to quote every post I have on this thread, but .... just in case you don't know the Verizon version has a few less features than AT&T, Sprint or T-Mobile (just a few service providers)... they might be the same main Android version, but some features are not the same.

And I guess you don't really have to answer any question either... since I saw no real answer to my question of if your gestures were actually working.

Enjoy... maybe I will check back tomorrow... maybe not.

You know, I don't recall having that "print screen" gesture either.
I just checked and no, there's no gesture for that.
Are you sure about the name, maybe it's something else?

Oh, that's for screenshots! Not print screen.
You can also accomplish the screenshot by pressing the Home Button and Power Button at the same time for a second or two.

That is how i did it with this pic, but i wonder why the hand gesture doesn't work for that :S


Edit, found out i also had to atleast drag my finger across

Did you wave/pass your hand above the screen from one side to the other?

Ok, just did and posted there.

About the palm gesture for screenshots, you have to actually touch the screen with the side of your hand when waiving it from one side to the other.
