How to Take Screenshot in Samsung galaxy Y s5360 without rooting and no PC

Taking screenshots has always being problematic with android, as android does not provide native support for taking screenshot. This leads to many problems as well as solutions but not the handy ones.

People have to connect their phone to pc to take screenshot or if they want to take screenshot from mobile then they need to use third party apps for taking screenshot which again requires you to root your mobile phone. Gosh!! So much for just a screenshot, but again Google did something wonderful and started providing native support for taking screenshots starting gingerbread onwards. But here also the combination keys are different for different phones.
As you must be all aware we have reviewed the Samsung galaxy y s5360 and many people have been since asking how to take screenshot in Samsung galaxy y s5360. So we thought to make an article on it.

    I am trying to take a screenshot on my samasung galaxy s5360.But when I press and hold the menu button, I get a quick serach box and when when I press both menu and power button, I get a phone settings menu display. Can you please let me know what should be done to get a screen capture.

    Thanks

      First of all, gently press the Menu button, which is in the middle of two capacitive buttons. Keep this button pressed and then, press the power button . You could be able to hear a flick sound of camera and your screenshot will be captured. Even I failed in taking screenshots in earlier stage, but later, got succeeded. If you are still unable to capture screenshot, please contact me !

        the middle button between the two capacitive buttons is not a menu button. it’s a home button. the right capacitive button is the menu button.

        • http://www.imvignat.com/ Vignat Vora

          :P The left capacitive button is menu button :)

      Try with the above method for sometime and u’ll get to know how to take screenshots …
      even i struggled initially with the above procedure ….

    • azmath patan

      Press and hold the menu button. If you get any pop ups or any windows simply press back(but dont release ur finger from menu button). and then press power button.

      U can find the captured screenshot in gallery ….

      Please let me know if you have any issues.

      Cheers,

    hi hm, it is very tricky,a split second here and there, you will miss taking the screenshot, just press the menu key and immediately after that press the power button. you can try with slight variations in time until you get it correct.

    Hi,
    Sometimes my Galaxy Y displaying messages “SD card Unexpectedly Removed” in the notification area and then “preparing SD card”, “media scanner running”, “media scanning completed”. Why this is happening and hanging the phone for 4 to 5 seconds. The same thing i.e., displaying messages happening while receiving a call also.

    • http://geekprison.com Zibran

      well that happen usually when you connect your phone to pc, you can try what imran has said and let us know

  • http://geekprison.com Mohd Imran

    I am facing an issue in my Samsung Galaxy Y, that when ever a text message arrive it appears line by line 1 time on the top of lock screen. So if u want to hide your message one can read it if he has your cell without unlocking it. Is there any way that the cell does not automatically displays the message on the lock screen.
    Regards
    Naeem Iqbal

    • http://geekprison.com Zibran

      First open your message screen( the little message icon where u see your list of messages) once you do that then you can click on settings and on the bottom you will see Notifications. Make sure the check mark is off so that u don’t get the preview on top of your screen every time you receive a message.

      hope it helps you, please revert in case of any problem

      Go to MESSAGES. SETTINGS. under NOTIFICATION SETTINGS. uncheck “display message notifications in status bar”

      im facing this problem too, anyone knows how to solve it?

    • Leo

       I also had the same problem. and here is the solution. Go to your nearest Samsung service center and update the firmware (update using key / or  directly from device is not enough). Thats it. If you r again getting the same error update using wi-fi from device.

      regards

    Hello! I want to get a screenshot to my Samsung Galaxy. But I don’t understand that process. When I clicked the home button and there is a popped message. But when I click the lock/power button The “Phone options” popped and didn’t shot. :o

  • Ksheng91

    Hi there,
    I find this post very useful and purposely write a thank for you. And, the KEY we have to press, in my opinion, I don’t think so, it is a MENU key, as its function is not bringing the owner to the main menu, I suppose.
    Anyway, it is still very usefully, although just a simple guide.

    Thank you.
