In the right top corner, I don't get the key to access memory manager, or opening programs..
When a program is launched, i've got a cross to close it. But when I'm at home for example, I've only a black square without anything, where I can't press to go to memory manager, and opened programs manager.
Is it normal ?
Download and install the "Touch X Taskmanager.cab" from the first post of this thread...

Q. Where is the task manager that used to be on the top right corner of the screen?
This handy feature of this phone has been moved. Slide to the Settings tab > Others. You can select Task Manager from this screen, and on the subsequent screen, you can choose to end a program or select close all programs to end everything.
You could also read the sticky here
Thanks very much both

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.

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.
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
i got some problem , i dunno where to seek , what the keyword to search....
need some help here....
the icon at the top right corner of my touch flo missing.....so i cant view , close or swap within the opened application.......
anybody what the name of the icon?
The icon at the top right hand corner does not belong to TF. It belongs to WM as I understand. A soft reset may be a solution.

thanx for the response , i already found the solution
the name of the icon is quick menu button
start > settings > system tab > task manager > button tab > check "enable quick menu on today screen"
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
How to switch btw running apps quickly? For example, if I am listening to slacker while browsing the web and want to switch back quickly to change the song. I am new to winmo and I am trying to learn the ropes. I currently use the stock task manager to switch, but that is kind of a pain. Is the a mod or app that allows this. Please refrain from raging on the newb.
Arkswitch
I use Arkswitch, which is quite a handy tool and can be accessed easily by assigning a area on the screen, which upon tapping, brings up arkswitch task manager. Just search for it on XDA and you should find it or i guess you can also google for it.
good topic. i was wondering about this too but i would prefer to long-press the home key & have task manager or another app switching app come up... I'm still looking into it.
@rlee
that would be amazing

Lmao YUP! something's should be easy, even already thought of while they're compiling the Win Mobile software together. Why there is no native option to just remap a button to open something baffles me these days. I’ve searched much and all I can come up with is "try AEButton Plus or HButton" but they don’t seem to map the "home key" or some people have issues.... anyways, I don’t want to have an app running in my memory to just get this function to work. still searching...

Here is a Registry hack for the send key to bring up the task manager: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612530
To use your "send" key to bring up Task Manager:
Settings > All settings > Personal > Buttons > Select Task Manager from "Assign a Program" drop-down menu (there's a scroll bar on the right, kind of hard to see at first)
Now when you hold your green button, the task manager will be brought up.

No, that's to bring up the task manager. They're looking for an easy way to bring up the, um...task manager. LOL yeah I think it's stupid someone didn't come up with a different name for one of them
The cab below will bring up the ArkSwitch task manager (usually accessed by clicking the menu icon just to the right of the clock in the taskbar) when you long-press the send key.
It's from THIS list of great cabs/tweaks, which is also found in the sticky at the top of this forum section. There's also similar cabs there that will perform the same fuction, but with alternative task manager apps.

Actually, with the task manager you can both close apps (by selecting it and hitting "Close") AND switch apps (by double-tapping on the app), so that would work perfectly.
Me, I usually just hit "Home" and most of the time the other app I want to load is on my quick list, if not, I'll just hit "Windows" instead.
dutty's task manager should do the trick.

+1, you can indeed switch between apps on the default Task Manager by double tapping on the program.
