Take ScreenShot of a current Screen using a background service in android

I need to write a service that will take screenshots of the current screen at specific intervals.After studying I found that there are two ways to do so :

  1. By rooting the device and access system level privileges to read framebuffer and convert it into a bitmap

2.Use ASL library to take screenshots

Since I don't want to root the device,I decided to go with ASL but whenever I run the demo code,I get native service not found.Please suggest me the steps to implement ASL and make the code to work.

In order for ASL to work, you have to connect to a PC once after every boot, and start the native service via ADB.

I guess you missed that, thus the service is not found.

You can find more on that here: http://code.google.com/p/android-screenshot-library/wiki/UserGuide
