iPhone screen shot? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

I have no idea what happened, but somehow my iPhone took a screen shot of my favorite contacts list and put it in the photo album on my phone. Can iPhones take screen shots without some other app or was this just some fluke?

Yea they can take screenshots. I think it's hitting the two buttons at once or something.

oh ok lol i thought i was crazy. i googled it but i just kept seeing some application that could do it, not the phone itself.

Circle button + top button at the same time lmao, I did the same damn thing. I was looking at my pictures one day and i was like how the hell did a pic of a text message get in here?! Stupid thing freezes all the time and I get all annoyed and try to shut it down and end up taking pics lol.

I bet that's exactly what i did because i had a freeze last week lol

james_ls · 08-21-2008, 07:23 PM

Other than random pictures you didn't know you took, and the freezing (occasional I assume, not really a chronic issue?) how do you like it?

namdoogwerdna · 08-21-2008, 07:56 PM

Best $400 i ever spent. I have the 1st gen and I'm not upgrading because the 3G's wont charge through the cable in my head unit.

Most people love them, personally I've never hated a phone as much as I hate the iphone lol. It has a lot of cool features that other phones don't have, but it lacks in certain areas. I just can't stand have a phone thats 100% touchscreen. Plus my phone crashes, freezes, and all around just messes up when texting, emailing, calling... everything. I can't deal with it anymore. So i'm just going to go make them swap it out and give me a new one. Then i'll get the new blackberry and sell my "new" iphone lol.

Do you have the 3G or the first gen?

djb5118 · 08-23-2008, 01:15 PM

i love my 1st gen, except for the lack of tactile feedback when texting

They make updates for this phone for a reason...but if your unlocked you wont be upgrading much of anything

1st gen, already had it replaced back in march so it's my 2nd 1st gen. I do the updates when they come out and everything, still sucks. But it got 10x worse when I updated to 2.0. But then they did another update after that and it fixed about 25% of the problems. I still hate it lol.
