X tab on Contacts - Touch HD General

As in the title, the X tab on the contacts program doesn't work: it close the window but the program is still open in the task manager. Anybody noticed this?

The "X" doesn't close programs, it's like the "_" in the upper right corner of XP. It just hide the window. But try a Long press on the "X" (couple of seconds) and the program closes.

This is partially correct: I've set in the options of Programs Usage/Button that the "X" close the programs with only a short tap (instead of a long push). It's ok for all the programs except for Contacts that doesn't close!

Strange, I tested it on my HD before I posted the answer and it works but I haven't set the option to close with a short tap.
I guess contacts doesn't close with the long push either?

makeing the Ok button actually close an app, not just (mini)

I have searced but to no avile.
I do use magic button, but I want to be able to close an app without taping the top right corner of the screen, with the ok button.
am I doing something wrong?
also is the best way to null the active sync from auto starting still making a fake server exchange?
Keep stylus on the ok button for a couple of secs, then an icon like a house should appear on your taskbar. Press this for a short while and a menu sholuld appear where you can change the settings to close programs instead of minimize.
or can use smclose which is simpler - just place in windows startup folder voila!

Searching for a TaskManager

Hello,
I'm searching for a taskmanager or a prog assign to a HW button, with following features:
1. If I press the 'OK' button on my Polaris and a 'x' is visible in the upper right corner, the apllication/task in the foreground must be close.
I try the HTC taskmanager but with the option <OK/Close> on the OK button (button4), some apps don't close. Messenger, or contacts for example.
2. I need an exception list for task (like tomtom) which should be place in the background (like the messenger with HTC X-Button). Maybe a white list (for programs to cancel) is also acceptable.
I also tried 'ZapIt' and 'H-Button' and the taskmanager WkTask.
try pBar Its not really touch friendly...but works.
I use quickmenu. It allows me to close any forground app with the "OK" button and list the running apps in the start menu. It also allows me to hide any running apps (usually activesync).
However the menu is the same size as the original start menu so not finger friendly. I got used to it (even with fat fingers but using WM I have to). However you can also use D-Pad 'cause the running apps are on the top of the list.
why WkTask is not gd for u?

Now I've try pBar and quickmenu, too.
All this tools are good as taskmanager, but I need a little prog
which send an 'OK' if an 'OK' is visible. If a 'X' is shown in the top-right
corner, the program has to look in an exception list. If the task is mentioned in this list, the prog has to minimize it. Otherwise the prog must close the task.

It show like no other (very good) all tasks in the taskbar, but my problem could not be solved.

I never had a problem with wktask. The ok functions works fine for me

you're right, but only when I touch the 'x' the contact app is closed, if I press the HK, wkTask send it to background. Why?
All this applications work fine if I touch the 'x' on the display, but not if i assign them to a hardkey!
My requirements for the app I wand to assign to my 'OK' button (hardkey)
1. If a 'x' is shown, and I press the HK, the app should closed.
2. .. but it should not close if the app is in the exceptionlist. Then the app should minimized.
3. If an 'ok' is shown, and I press the HK, an ok should send.

Opening the Calender during a phonecall

i'm in a phone conversation, and someone asks me if I'm available on a certain date, i would want to check my calendar to see if i'm available.
i wanted to do this yesterday but after looking for more then a minute (while the call was open) i gave up.
does anyone know how to do this or even if it is possible???
(so open my calendar during a phone conversation)
pin it to the start menu
push hardware home button. then hit calendar on home screen. hit call hardware button or phone status in task bar on touch screen to get back to dialer screen.
I have the calendar in the start program. Everyone by default also has the "Today" on line one of the start menu, which will minimize the phone, take you to home screen, and allow you to open Tasks (or in your case, calendar). Finally, use the close button (X in upper right) to close the phone. It doesn't disconnect the phone.

thx for the replies guys!

Close all runing aplications

Hi ,
where can i find a soft or something... to help me on my diamond, to close all runing aplications who runs on background.
I`m Not looking for a task manager.. just if exist something simple..with a click to close all aplications...
Two options using the HTC Task Manager (should come with the standard ROM):
1) When you're at the Today Screen (ie TouchFlo), where the "X" or "Ok" button usually is (Top-right hand corner), there is a icon that looks like 3 horizontal bars with a little triangle. Tap this icon, then tap the "X" icon that appears just below (and slightly to the left) of it.
2) Start->Settings->Systems->Task Manager, then press "Stop All"
Alternatively, just soft-reset the device
If that doesn't satisfy you, then keep an eye on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446928

auto-close programs

Are there any programs out there that allow me to fully exit a program when I press the "x" at the upper right hand part of the screen? It's very annoying to always have to go to task manager to manually exit many applications. It'd be nice to just click the X, and have the program automatically close.
install duytty's task manager, then you'll have the option of setting a short or long press of 'x' to close programs
