I read other threads about screen shots and everyone has either rooted or downloaded apps. You guys are making this WAY too hard.

Here is all you have to do:

1. Hold down the power button and press the home button

You will then see the message "screenshot saved in camera shots"

Done...
 
Thanks! Is it just my phone, or is that power button much harder to press down than it should be?
 
I think we've established this..... Theres about 3 other threads with this information.

Though, I know you had good intentions, so thanks, anyways!

Mine's about twice as hard to push as the Pre was. It shouldn't be much more than that. The first time I took the battery cover off and put it back on I noticed the power button was a little cocked, so now I slide the phone into the top of the battery cover first. You could stop by Sprint and compare the power button to a demo if in doubt.

Sorry man. I tried to do some homework to ensure it wasn't already discussed. I guess not enough. At least it will still help some people.

Oh, I wasnt trying to come off as a d!ck, in case I did.

Just an fyi. There were several other threads I saw. But yea, everytime I mention it somehwere, somebody else says "thanks!" so, it hasn't been discussed ad-nauseum...
 
Haha. No you didn't. It's funny because as of yesterday people were still asking what apps to dl. I love these forums but I have no time to view them. Up at 0300, in bed by 2000 (hopefully).
 
Tip: Capture screen image on UNROOTED HTC EVO 3D!

Just want to tell how to "take a picture" of the screen... Is simple, just hold the lock/unlock(power) button and home button at the same time, sorta like the iPhone way...

Here is an example(the sample pic is where I got the tip)
