How to take screenshot in Galaxy S plus

Taking screen shot in Samsung Galaxy S / S plus / ACE are same and simple method. i am used the same keys to take screen shot in three phones. We can can capture the screen using the combination of back and home soft keys.

Method 1:
1. Go to the screen which you desire to take Screenshot.
2. Press and hold the Back soft key.
3. Now press the Home button in the middle.

Method 2:
1. Go to the screen which you desire to take Screenshot.
2. Simultaneously Press the Back soft key and Home button in the middle.

That's it. You will hear a capture sound and a Toast message will appear as 'Screen captured. Saved as image file'. To get the captured image go to /mnt/sdcard/ScreenCapture.
