Default Screenshot after ICS 4.0.4 update

Hi, i just upgraded my Galaxy Blaze 4g to ICS and now i am not able to take a screenshot as i used to before (home+lock keys).
I also tried all other combinations with the lock key but to no avail (That includes volume down + lock and other ways of talking screenshots in Galaxy SII etc)
Can somebody please help me (and other upgraded Blazers) out here.

Might be a configurable item in the settings, I know it is on my Samsung tablet running ICS.

Hi spk, welcome to the forums.

I don't have this phone, so I could be totally off base. Try holding the power button and your home button at the same time.

Hi spk - I'm running into the same issue. Home+Power before ICS update used to take a screenshot, but after ICS update, it no longer does

I did some searching but it looks like its still Power + Home, but you have to hold it longer. Does that work?

Not as far as I can tell...holding the Home for a long time (a couple of seconds) , even with Power pressed, eventually brings up a list of open apps and a link to Task Manager. Same thing starting with Power pressed and then holding down Home.

Ah, I got it working...it's a timing thing.

So, I start with pressing the Power button, but immediately after pressing that (split-second), I press the Home button and hold it down...then it takes the screenshot.

Yeah that works for me too. Had been trying the power + volume down buttons like a bunch of other websites say. Thanks.

That's dumb that they changed it to the power and home button on the I9100 too! I liked the volume down and power buttons better. haha.
Glad someone figured this out!!

Don't let the name fool you, this isn't the typical "4G" you're normally used to. The Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G will take advantage of T-Mobile's 4G HSPA+ network, that's capable of hitting up to 42Mbps download speeds... Read More
