I’ve recently been digging back into doing mobile web development for The Social Collective and had a user send me a picture (taken with his webcam) of the browser on his Blackberry. It was basically a brightly colored smudge.

Luckily, the bug he was informing me of was sufficiently bone-headed on my part that I was able to distinguish what was going on, but for future reference I’ve put together the following list of how to best take screenshots from a variety of mobile devices:

iPhone / iPod Touch

Tap the Power button and the Home button simultaneously and a screenshot will be saved to your Pictures.

Blackberry

  1. Browse to http://m.thetechmogul.com/
  2. Install CaptureIt! for Blackberry
  3. Use new menu option of “Capture It” to take a screenshot

Windows Mobile

Use the free MyMobileR application to remotely control and take screenshots of your WinMob device.

Nokia S60

Use Antony Pranata’s Screenshot for Symbian OS

Sidekick Devices

Press menu+shift+shutter simultaneously to place a screenshot into your pictures.

The shutter button is (and I quote from Y! Answers) – “button u push on top of ur phone 2 take a pic”. Heck Ya it is!

How to Take Android Screenshots

Browse the Marketplace for “Android Screenshot”, a free utility for taking time based Android Screenshots.
