Am I the only one with this experience as it failed me so many times. I'm having a hard time to get a screen grab, or was it just me.

By pressing the home and power button simutaneously, my hp has turned off so very often. I was told perhaps the power button has to be pressed a micro sec later than the home button. However hard I tried, it just turned off. Sometimes it work though and my luck seems abt 30% successful.

Have anyone of you faced the same problem? Why can't use the vol as second button to avert switching off. Is Apple engrg aware such problem? Is Tim Cook sleeping?

This works for most people most of the time. Perhaps there's something going on with your particular phone and some hardware sensitivity or insensitivity that might be behind this kind of thing in your case?
