I have ICS with Matr1x kernel. I thought it was volume down + power button, but that doesn't work.
Press and hold them down for like 3 seconds

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.
My girl has the i727r from rogers and she updated to their 4.0.4 update. She can't figure out how to take screenshots. Someone with info please enlighten me please! Thanks!

its all over here
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.

Home plus power. Hold home first then hold power until the screenhot is taken

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

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:
I have just flashed CM7 to my lg g2x. At the moment the phone does not boot. How can I open CMW menu when phone is not open ?
my lg optimus g2x does hard format when i hold volumedown + power buttons while phone is off.
Turn off, and turn on while holding volume down

thanks
Mine's slightly different, holding down doesn't work. I wait until the notification light flashes then press any button.
What is the correct method for taking a screen shot?
Power + Home button works
Power+Home doesn't work for me.
Power+Vol Down is what does it for me.

I must of been not pressing hard enough. Volume Down and Power did work.
Volume and home, Does not work
Not sure how this varies, but Power + Home works on my phone, Power + Volume does nothing but adjust the volume. Weird.

What home button? Do you have a HTC One (M8) on Verizon? Mine doesn't have a dedicated home button. Power+Volume down produces a screenshot.
The soft home button. Yeah it's an M8. Just got it Wednesday.

Weird. That just shuts my screen off LOL
I can confirm without a doubt that both methods work. I find its 100x easier to just use power and volume down at the same time.

Running skyfall and faux kernel. Everything was fine until installed this app. Went to reboot as requested then nothing. Powered off. Will not turn on at all. Can't boot into the boot screen. Power cable doesn't so anything,...uh I'm confused. Please help
Hold down your power button for over thirty seconds and report back. I couldn't turn on my phone once, but after holding down the power button for ages, it eventually booted.
If you liked my post, please hit the "thanks" button.

U WOT M8?
That didn't do the trick but adb got it to come to life. I was freaking out
The power button and up on volume key does the trick.

Thanks. I'll learn htc's tricks soon enough. Said in another post, every mfg is different. I wouldve been looking for Odin on my galaxy thanks for the heads up.
