How to take a screen shot on the Galaxy S2 with Ice Cream Sandwich

The first thing I noticed after I updated my Galaxy S2 to ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich), was that the same button press combo for taking a screen shot wasnt doing the trick anymore.

Luckily, a quick Google search taught me how to do it.

On Gingerbread, the shortcut was to hold the Home button (bottom middle of the phone) and then quickly hit the power button, but now, in ICS theyve changed it to be Volume Down + Home button + Power button, and you must press them at the same time. EDIT: ahh correction, just Volume Down + Power Button (stupid guy on youtube!)

I always wonder why developers would change stuff like that? I mean, the windows button on a keyboard still opens up the start menu, no matter if its Windows 95 or Windows 7.

Anyway, glad thats sorted, will keep you guys posted on the rest of my findings!

Photos taken with the Samsung Galaxy S2

The Samsung Galaxy S2 has a very nice 8MP camera, and, as promised, here are some photos Ive taken with it recently (click on the photos to view the full versions of each):

Youll see Ive even taken a few panorama shots with the built-in panorama feature. The close-ups of our dogs were done with the Macro setting and some included using the built-in LED flash. Click to see bigger versions...

Will post some more when I experiment with the other settings...

Till next time!
