Screenshot is important for a theme maker. Screenshot has function to display the theme that we have created so it can make other people interested in our theme. Generally, Website that provide free themes like eseth.net, tekhseven.net and mobile9.com also require the uploader to include screenshot of their themes. Taking screenshots s60 phone is easy, but for s40 phones is a bit difficult.
But now we can do it easily with Nokia Screen Dumper, a simple software to take a screenshot of your s40 phone. Just follow these simple steps :
- Download Nokia Screen Dumper : http://www.mediafire.com/?naezioznz6zh9sd
- Deactivate all Nokia-related-software (Nokia PC Suite, Nokia Ovi Suite, Nokia Software updater, etc).
- Run Nokia Screen Dumper.
- Connect your phone via USB, and choose PC Suite mode/Ovi Suite.
- Back to Nokia Screen Dumper, choose : File – Connect (a pop up box will appear notify that connection is succeeded)
- To take a Screenshot, click DUMP.
- To save the screenshot click SAVE, choose PNG format for the best result (recomended).
- If you finish taking your screenshot, choose : File – DIsconnect.

I am using that also, but it doesn’t work when you don not have any Nokia Pc Suite installed on your PC, am i correct?
probably not, I used NSD when I’m not isntalling any nokia PC suite and it works !
Hi Udjo42,
With java applications not working? I tried, but it is a white screen
Thanks
Does ur phone Nokia Series 40? I think this software only works for Nokia Series40, That’s why it called Nokia Screen Dumper. Make sure u follow those steps, and make sure ur phone is connect before you hit ‘Dump’.
Thanks
The program works, but the point is that You can not make the screenshot turned on application
I’m thinking about making a screenshot such as applications Google Maps, Snaptu? You know what i mean?
Sorry but my English is not good
Thanks
Oh I see, unfortunately this NDS only take screenshot ur phone when it still, it can’t capture application like blackberry does, even it can’t take a shot of pop-up screen

On this Polish forum: http://nokiahacking.pl/nokia-screen-dumper-nsd-screenshoty-z-telefonow-nokia-os-s40-vt2037.htm there’s a tip that if you want to take a screenshot of a java app, you need to press the red button, then, when it asks you whether you want to quit or no, select No. – Now you can take a screenshot.
I can’t understand their language at nokia hacking. Can you elaborate it to me.
where did you read it?
Thanks, I thought that I’m doing something wrong
Your themes for Nokia C3 are amazing! Good job
Your welcome
Hello Udjo42
I wanted to start creating themes for Nokia C3
I Installed ‘Carbide.ui Theme Edition Series 40 5.0′ and ‘Carbide_ui_Series_40_6th_Edition_Compact_UI_Plug_in_v1_1_en’ but the resolution in the program is still 240×320, You know what I mean? I do not see the screen with c3 (320×240), but 240×320
You too are working on this resolution?
Thanks.
Please check my latest post in this blog,
Hi! Don’t you know any application that captures the screen on the go? Without the USB and such? Thanks!
unfortunately no, since C3 is S40 Java phone,
It doesn’t work if you have no OVI Suite installed?
It works in my PC without installing OVI suite, but incase, just try installing OVI suite if it doesn’t work without installing OVI suite
Good Luck
Nice artikel Gan.
tengkyu gan :beer:
thnx man ……
it doesnt work if ovi suite and pc suite are running
this application need extra effort for running
Yes yes yes, please understand that s40 phone has many minus points
ko gak connect ?
pake windows 7 ya?
It doesn’t work.
Why?
tell me , do you use windows 7
Does that works only in Windows 7?
I use both XP an Se7en, This tools only works on XP
Bro … Im also using Windows 7 & NSD is not working on it … So what I have to do now ??
when you use Win 7, make sure you install the latest nokia suite, The Nokia Suite will install all necessary driver for Nokia, so Nokia Screen Dumper will works fine.
my cell phone is nokia c3 but there is no connection to my laptap so i need sceenshot in keypad so i can make it easyer
