Put your hand flat as if you are going to do a karate chop (as the above poster stated) and wipe it across the screen from right to left or left to right (just like a scanner scanning a piece of paper). This will trigger the screen capture.

Did you try power+home?

Power + home pressed at exactly the same time. Hold for a second or 2 and done.

Two things. Need to make sure the swipe to screenshot shortcut is enabled in Settings > Motion. If this is ticked then it works if the front facing camera has enough light. So, in the same way that you need decent ambient light for the phone to check your eyes are open and to use face unlock, it needs the same for screenshots to work.

Hold the back button and press your home key.

Did you hold back then press the home key and not just pressing them at the same time?

Since when could ANY android phone take a screenshot without an app/sdk?

In the new Froyo builds that started to pop up if you LP the back button it is supposed to launch a screenshot app.
I don't think it works on our Vibrants though.
I did it earlier by accident but I can't redo it.
No doubt it would require full root access, but it'd be very useful if the 3D Switch had a function outside of camera mode. One thought I had would be as a silent/vibrate toggle as found on the iphone. But that's a far cry from all the potential uses for it.

I was thinking maybe the camera button could be used for screenshots? That would be pretty awesome.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
maybe autobrightness and a user defined level would be sweet. also Setting up the camera button to do other things especially because its a dual stage button! we could have perform 2 seperate functions!
Any updates on this? Just got the 3d and I have miui running. The switch is now literally pointless. Any way we could make it a vibrate/sound toggle? Wifi on/off switch? Customizable switch? I just want all of my buttons to have a point in being a button.
Would it be possible to do with one of those Remap button apps?

With MIUI, press volume down + menu for screen shot!
I realize I'm about to stray into the wild crazy world of 'off topic' but here's a few other MIUI tips!

I will not take credit for finding this because I'm sure its already been mentioned earlier than i have searched but.....
When holding the stylus, if you press the grey button on the side of it down by the tip and then press and hold the tip on your screen while pressing the grey button, it takes a screen shot of your display. Lets you draw or write on the image and send/share/save/discard...whatever you want. I found this by accident today.
Pretty neat. I wonder what else this thing does that I don't about. Amaaaazing device....wow.

The screen shot feature with the S-Pen is very well known.
Also, if you hold the button and swipe with the S-Pen you are able to use home, menu and back keys.
Button + Swipe Up = Menu
Button + Swipe Down = Home
Button + Swipe Left = Back
Also holding your phone, using the side of your hand, swipe from right to left takes a screenshot of current display

Lol, no it only works sometimes for me. I wouldnt worry about that. It could be my case or screen protector or both. But besides the mentioned ways you can press the home button and power button at the same time for a screenshot.

How do we take a screenshot with ICS then?
Is there a built in native function?
It is my understanding that sony did not put the screenshot feature into their build of ICS. I have not found a really good screenshot app yet, but if/when I do, I will keep you posted. Btw were you part of the psp scene? Any suggestions on a good screenshot app that works with the tablet s?

Simultaneously press and hold the tablet's POWER and VOL- buttons. After a couple of seconds and the screenshot image is momentarily displayed, release the buttons. It's a bit tricky to do, but after a few tries, you'll get the hang of it. The screenshots are stored in /sdcard/Pictures/Screenshots.
Thanks Cat! I found this right after I posted, thanks for the info! I am glad to see the screenshot is a feature os sony's ICS. Thanks.
Thanks Cat McGowan !
Now to post my homescreens !
You can press the power-button longer and press on "ScreenShot"

What is the shortcut to screenshot?? i treid home + pwr, vol up + pwr, vol down + pwr...anybody knows?
Swipe your hand from right to left across the screen. Your hand must be faced sideways like you are slapping someone, where the pinky finger and side of palm is what is swiping on the screen.
P. S. There is a Q&A section for questions such as this.
