As discussed we have two options left to capture the screenshot on HTC One X and here goes the first way.
Method 1
Just hold down the ‘POWER’ key and with a difference of a second just press the ‘HOME’ button and the hot keys configured in the system will take the screenshot of the screen which you would like to capture and a message which says “screenshot saved to Camera shots” would be appeared on the screen and the image would be saved in your DCIM (Camera) directory and you can find the same in your mobile phone’s Gallery.
Method 2
In this method you need to hold down the ‘POWER’ button and instead of “Home” key you need to press the VOLUME DOWN button after a second and the screenshot would be saved in your pictures directory under a sub folder “Screenshots”.
Please note that in this method you will need to hold the downside of the volume button for 1 to 2 seconds.
