I have a Oneplus2 device, recently (last week) I have upgrades the OS to OxygenOS 3.5.6. Among a lot of UI changes I have noticed that when I long press the power button I only get the "Power off" and "Reboot" options.

Before the OS upgrade It also contained a capture screen (for screenshots) button. Is there a way to bring it back ?

    Looks like it's dropped. Apart from Vol dn + power option you have 3 finger swipe option

  • If your device is rooted, it is possible

  • In which case, you may not be able to bring it back as it is not a supported OS feature ( and needs root to modify OS) - I don't have that OS but a friend who has was discussing this option and showed me the three finger swipe

This feature is dropped from the OS update and you would need root pets to attempt restore or apply a hack. Since your device is not rooted, you can use Three Finger Swipe . Steps below :

Settings → Gestures → Enable Three Finger screenshot

By swiping the fingers from top down, you can take a screenshot. There's also an option of taking a long screenshot by pressing the icon which looks like portrait device icon

I neither have the device nor OS, but saw it on a friend's device. Please feel free to add or edit
