Screen capture software for Nokia mobiles (X6, 5800..)

If you have a Nokia X6, you are travelling in the right direction in this Digi world. It’s a beautiful phone, some describe it as the mother of Nokia 5800 (most features are the same except the touch screen, X6 has a capacitive touch screen where as 5800 has a resistive one).

Even though it’s such a charm, you could run into few bugs that could make your phone to hang temporarily. In such cases, to better solve your problem (either by the Guys at Nokia or experienced campaigners waiting in popular forums), you’ll need to post a screen shot of the screen that ran you into trouble)

Even if you don’t run down into any trouble, you may find this application useful in many ways.

Download the Screensnap application from here. Since X6 works on the same platform as Nokia 5800XM or N97, it should work with X6 too. Install the application directly or using the Nokia PC suite, and set the hot key as ‘Camera’. From then on, when ever you need to take a screen shot, just press the dedicated camera key and your shot will be saved in the Gallery (See an example here, where I took a snap of an application called Snaptu installed in Nokia 5800).

If you didn’t find your snap in the Gallery, make sure that the screensnap app is set to ‘hide’ and not been exited completely.
