I was wondering if anyone tested both programs on his/her Prophet.
What I'm interested in is speed, which one uses less memory?
Is there a way you can see which app. is currently using X cpu time, memory?
Pocket breeze 5 is better, to close programs I use handy switcher

For CPU, have a look at Vidya Pocket Task Manager.
For RAM, I don't know of any; if you find something, please post it here.
I prefer WA2 for task management,very nice &useful .
and better too WA2 LITE , that is very very light for my S200
WA2 lite is OK, but new HandySwither (v2.7) is the best: only 11.9kb of program memory and fully one-hand operation. No problems with phone application and comm manager too.
To switch and close apps, I now use GSPocketMagic (very light and free), I mapped it to the start menu button, so I do not waste any buttons.
Hi All,
i use both WA2 & Spb pocket plus and both work quite well on my Jamin. do not use the WA Desktop since it is useless if you really want to use Spb plus the only problem i face with the Spb is that the actual themes will not show on the Meter bars (Battery, Memory, etc.)
Hey just got my Touch today was wondering what are some good apps for it?

I have also been looking for good apps for my Touch. I don’t want to install and remove tones of apps and clutter up my Touch. But if there are apps out there that really shine I would love it if people would post it. Perhaps we can turn this thread into a comprehensive list of great apps for the Touch?
I know we can find these apps by searching but maybe we can turn this thred into a one-stop shopping center for the best Touch apps along with URL’s of where to get them? Maybe even screen shots?
I love Google Maps. Very slick and useful. If you have the $7/month unlimited data package from Bell Mobility (apparently Telus has something similar) then download Google Maps.

It's a keyboard. I love it and can't live without it now.
I currently have:
PocketCM
Touchpal
Pocket Informant

HTC Home customizer

Google maps
Windows live search
opera mobile (trial)
Documents to go (trial)
HTC Audio Manager
KeySwop
psShutXP
Pocket Player (trial)
I would also recommend getting invisibleshield for the touch to protect it.
Here are some of the critical software that I cannot live without.
Ultimate Launch
PocketCM
Touchpal

Resco Explorer (with Registry Editor)
Opera Mobile

Coreplayer mobie
Resco Explorer w reg editor (everyone needs this)
1-calc
Conduits Pocket Player
Ringo (ringtone Manager)
Schap's Adv config
MS Voice Command 1.6 (modded to announce calls over BT)
A few other custom tidbits
It took a little work, but now, my phone puts an iphone to shame! WOOHOO!
Apps
Cant forget about shogunmark Threaded SMS, also cube config
SPB Pocket Plus is on my UC lineup. I love how it adds the extra 'hold' button mapping feature to all ur buttons (great on my Kaiser, but the Vogue only has one button?!?!) Also, the tabbed plug-in feature for PIE is a must have!
Yes, Advanced Config. is a necessity too but it won't let me map 'long press send key' or 'long press end key,' whatsup with that? I am running v2.1.
Has anybody been able to map those keys? The Vogue doesn't have that many buttons and it'd be great if we could get the most out of them. I was able to map them on my Kaiser, which had more button options than I could imagine.
I would give a vote for the best soft kb I've tried: ftpro
From the developer's site (www.fingertouchpro.com):
"""
What makes Fingertouch the BEST? Video tutorials
Fingertouch PRO has 5 layouts (5 keyboards in 1)!
It offers FAST Text Input using our patented technologies!
Comes with fT9 Technology, T9 improved system!
It supports multiple languages including Russian (Cyrillic) or Greek!
The keys can be moved, entire layout is configurable!
The keyboard size can be changed, including FULLSCREEN!

I don't even use half of these now.
Softs
At first, i was pretty scared to try some softs, but now, i try'em, and delete them if they dont do the job.
A couple of month ago, i knew nothing of Mobiles powered devices and now, gosh, thanks to some months of learning in these forums, i tweak my device a lot!
THANKS XDA, you made me HAPPY
Stupid question, but are these apps easy to install and remove? do i need to use my pc or do i just download them from the phone itself? are the majority of them free?
Thanks.
Hi everyone, I have been following this forum for a while but this is my first question:
I am happy with the task manager that comes with our Hds but... it only shows the running programs when one is at the home page.
I'd really like to be able to switch task from anywhere (any running program).
Can this be achieved in any way? I would be happy if I could map a button with AEBPlus to perform it.
Thanks in advance
I am wondering about this too. I find i have to switch from program to another program quite often. Not having to go to the home page to switch would be a good thing for me.
Try PBar 1.5,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=483771&highlight=Pbar+1.5
Yes, I have successfully used pBar in the past with other devices...
...but it seems like a bit of a pity that we have to install yet another 3rd party application (no matter how light it is) to do something that software that is already installed in our devices is (potentially) capable of, ain't it?
I have tried AEBPLus with no luck, more ideas?
Any solution so far? Does anyone know what's the command line for htc task manager?
I'd recommend magicbutton (freeware). Its always the first app I install on a fresh WM device. It works in any application that isn't "fullscreen". So if you can see the system menu at the top of the screen you can use it. Has an optional simple single pixel battery power meter on the top of the screen too that I always use.
Hi all!
I'm desperately looking for a way to kill processes on my HD2 (wm6.5).
Here is what I've already experienced :
1°/ windows task manager : it is possible to switch display between applications and processes, but when I select the process display, the processes can't be killed whereas applications can be... Does someone know if there is a trick (maybe in the registry) to allow process kill in the windows task manager?
2°/ HTC Task manager : Only applications are visible (Not processes).
3°/ Dotfred's Task Manager : it doesn't seem to work under wm6.5.
Thanks for your replies... ;-)

Yes, thanks Kilrah!!!
Schap's Advanced Task Manager is exactly the kind of application I was looking for...
Easy to use, light and working on windows mobile 6.5.
I really don't understand why such a useful application was so hard to find and I why it is not already implemented in windows mobile whereas it is for non mobile versions.
I spent hours looking for this kind of soft on google without any results... A lot of task managers exist without the ability of killing processes. Some are not working (maybe to old or designed for older windows mobile versions). Few people seem to be interested in this kind of soft. Surprising...
Anyway, thanks a lot!
I see that HD2 doesn't come with a Task Manager, or at least I have not discovered it yet.
I have used good freeware task managers with older versions of Win Mobile. I am wondering whether they might be compatible with the HD2 and Sense? For instance--Magic Button, Vbar?
Anyone used those, or any others, with the HD2?
PS Now I have discovered the Task Manager that comes with the HD2.
Still wondering about using alternative ones, like Magic Button, Vbar, or others. Anyone here doing that?
