I found it myself. Here's the recipe:


0. Navigate to the screen you want to capture


1. Press and hold down Home (round button center bottom)

2. Press and release Sleep (top right button of phone)

2a. You will hear a camera-like shutter sound

2b. Release Home button

3. Screenshot is in photo album
