How to Take a Screenshot of Pandora on Android



1. Download and install Android SDK from the Android Developers website. Make sure you select the appropriate version of the program depending on the operating system of your computer. Versions are available for Windows, Mac and Linux. You'll also need to download and install the USB drivers for your particular Android device. You'll find these under 'OEM USB Drivers' on the same website.

2. Enable USB debugging mode on your Android phone by clicking the 'Settings' icon, going to 'Applications' and selecting 'Development.'

3. Open the Pandora application on your Android phone and have it set to the image you want captured in a screenshot.

4. Connect your Android phone to your computer with a USB cable.

5. Open Android SDK on your Windows computer and go to the 'Tools' folder. From here, start the batch file titled, 'ddms.' This will launch the Dalvik Debug Monitor Service. If you're using a Mac or Linux system, enter your terminal in sdk/tools and enter ./ddms to launch the Debug Monitor Service.

6. Go to the 'Device' menu within the DDMS windows. Select 'screen capture' to create a screenshot of your Android screen. The screenshot will appear on your computer, where you can save it or copy it to your clipboard. To take another screenshot, change the image on your Android phone and click 'refresh' in the screen capture window.
