doesn't that reset it?

Don't hold it for a long period of time. It takes a picture very quickly. Try it.

 

[daveishere]

doesn't that reset it?

not if you release it straight after the screen flashes and you hear a camera sound. It will be obvious the screenshot has been taken.

doesn't that reset it?

lol. no. holding them both down for 10 seconds or so performs a hard restart. hold them both down for a quick second takes a screen capture

doesn't that reset it?

Can't tell if you're joking.

If not, did u try it? Just press home and power together, you'll hear the shutter, and viola!

 

[nepalisherpa]

doesn't that reset it?

NO, it does not!

 

[Interstella5555]

doesn't that reset it?

only if you continue to hold them.

Hold the sleep/wake for 2 seconds and press the home button. You'll hear a shutter sound (if you're not on silent mode) and you'll find the screenshot in your photo album.

I tried to do it but sadly my phone died before it worked. I was getting well over a day stadnby and over 7 hours use with LTE off location off and bluetooth off...Another question since it is dead I am charging it off now when it shows the battery indicator as well as the time/date/day is that off or do I need to shut it down completely if so how can you tell its done charging if off completely? I am new so please be kind.

Keep it how it is. A tap of the home button will bring that up again I believe.

It should power on once it reaches a certain battery %. Or you can try manually.

well i turned it off using the sleep/wake and when i press the home button nothing happens is that normal?

Yeah. I forgot how it works when it's off and charging. You can try powering it back on at this point.

ok is it best to charge it completely off?

Doesn't matter one bit.

I assure you, it doesn't matter whether you charge it on or off. Remember, lithium ion batteries don't like being left to charge while at 100% or left to die completely.

So that being said don't let it drian completely? Or should I only drain it once or twice a month. If so should I charge it when its only half battery? Please explain.
