home + power button same time

I had the same problem. In GB you had to press the home + power buttons, but now with ICS you have to hold it for a second or two.

Home + Power on AT&T takes me into an open-apps type screen, along with a link to task manager. It doesn't take a screenshot as far as I can tell.

Home + power button at the same time but you have to hold it down now until it takes a screenshot. Like 3-4 seconds.

When I hold the home button down, it opens the Task Manager screen. I then press the Power button and hold that for a long time, and nothing happens. When I release the buttons, my Skyrocket reboots. Can't figure out how to take screenshots anymore. I've tried all the different combinations of buttons and timing that I found searching for this, but nothing works. Wish I hadn't "upgraded" to ICS now.
Sorry, I'm on AT&T but I've heard that taking screenshots on the Skyrocket should be the same.

Hahaha. Unreal man, unreal. You guys amaze me

UCLD2
Samsung removed the Power + Vol. Down (note the order) since UCLD2 (ICS TouchWize roms), Power + Home is your only option on the stock touchwiz offereing. You need to muck around with framework jar to enable it. Obviously, my ROMS (EMBRYO) have it enabled since I am used to the Power + Vol. Down :laugh:

one of these was "sens" function, so if u get rom w/o sens I think the home+power button wont work (or the otherone )
I think the home+power is from sense as it doesn't work on my friends gnex, but for some reason I can't get the power+vol- to work on my one s but works fine on his gnex.

It's both, for both versions of the phone.
Vol- + Powerbutton doesn't work for me :/ But Power + Home works fine (and is easier )

You can keep saying it, but it doesn't make it true.
Power + Home works for my T-Mobile (US), Power + Vol- does not.
Power + Vol - is an ICS feature. It does work on the One S, it just takes a bit of practice

Are you serious? Is this really something someone would lie about?
I can do both on my One S. I didn't even know about Power + Home until it was mentioned in this thread. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't and/or it's not a feature.
Yes, I have a TMO-US One S.
Hold Power then press the Home button.
Not to be that guy but this question has been asked a few times before, please search the forums first, also there is a Noob Q&A Thread for stuff like this. "Noob" not being derogatory.

Here you go, I made a Youtube just for you!
(And this thread, to prove that they both work)

Yes, I have that much free time since classes just ended for the summer.
Both methods work
Method 1:
Press power and volume - at the same time
Method 2:
Hold power while tapping the home key
Power and volume down hold them then let go.

Yea just tested both my self -vol+power seem to have a shutter sound and have to be pushed at the sametime as for the power+home just flashes the screen and power can be pressed befor tapping the home button.

Also one gets put in the screenshots subfolder while the other goes in the cameraroll....
the QA on this phone leaves me cold.

Screen shots

Is there any way on the stock device to take a screen shot?

Power button and the home button works I think.
And a second method is power button + vol down. I find the timing tricky and sometimes end up switching the phone or the volume off but it does work when I get it right

Hit them at the same time and you're good.

IMO it works better if you press and hold the buttons until it says "Screenshot Saved"
Yes...it works! I don't have to spent $4 at the market!

I've found that if you're holding down the power button and tap the volume down or home button it usually works.

Screen shot and and battery life on sky ics

I m on sky ics F6 with sean's kernel. I froze most of the bloat I just left Facebook, Google +, go power master and the draining of battery is very little from this programs. I am getting 15 to 22 he's marvellous. One thing I have never been able to do screen shots, I try everything power+ home, power+ volume down, power+ volume up

Hit power+home at the exact same time and hold them for a couple of seconds.

Just pull the battery. It'll be fine. Some say you can hold the power button for 30 seconds too, but who has that kind of time?
