I tried searching. Really I did. But try searching for Task manger touch pro2 or anything like that. You get a bazillion threads for ROMs and such. I had the task manager before. But had to a hard reset and lost it. The only mod I am running is cookies home tab and the editor.
I tried the HTC task manger 2.0 and 2.1. No luck. I looked and it is enabled on the today screen. but it's not there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I should specify. I am looking to get the icon back in the upper right corner of the screen. That i can use to close apps. Either one at a time, or all at once.
Have you tried
start-settings-system-task manager-button tab
and then click on "enable X button" ?
hope this helps

The latest WM6.5 does not have the task manager at all, so that option isn't there.
Here's the god ol' task manager.

Help guys, for some reason when I load up comm manager it's pretty much transparent. I can vagely see the text over the screen behind but thats it. I can click on the txt and it opens the relevant app but thats it. Is there a way of putting comm manager back on which might fix this?

hi friends, i hope its not a prob to discuss about another forum's application out here but just need urgent help.
i tried nuenobar ver. 1.3 on builds less dan 21000
and nuenobar ver. 2.2 on builds above 21000.
the problem is that i have set taskbar to close application on pressing the close button but when i do so, the application only gets minimised and doesnt close.
what to do cause when i remove nuenobar, everything becomes fine.

go to settings -system- task manager-button
you have to disable the setting 'end prog by tapping and holding'
and tick the one with 'end prog by tapping X

and i remember that this problem started from 2.03 and 2.04.
before that everything was fine till 1.97build
Possible solution: Advanced Configuration Tool
Have you tried Advanced Configuration Tool v3.3?
When opening Advanced configuration Tool go to 'HTC Task Manager' and set 'Auto Kill' to enabled.
Maybe this will work.

Yes, this is a known problem. I have contacted the developer about it, and he said he'd look into it. But it's been a while and haven't heard back anything. I'd recommend also contacting him through his homepage.
Sorry for this minor thread necromancy, but for windows mobile 6.5 21232 (Energy ROM v3 "phoenix") i found a workaround using homescreen ++ ui:
1. on settings/system/htc task manager/button switch "enable the "x" button to end..." OFF, but leave the "quick menu on today screen" on.
2. in homescreen ++ ui settings, in the "tools" tab, switch "enable taskmanager" OFF, then go to task manager settings and switch "close by tapping on x" On.
note: the homescreen ++ task manager theoretically is okay, but for me it got drawn into the battery icon making it unreadable.
3. Soft reset. At least for me this works.
Edit: Sorry, i just noticed i kind of misposted. i have a touch pro. but nonetheless this should work on the diamond as well.
Hello all!
Today I've upgraded to the latest official ROM, that is: 2.53.405.5(76952) WWE with Manilla 2.5.20113030.0. The main problem is that after I stop an application by tapping X it continues to run in the background. The task manager icon that was in the upper right corner in Manilla 2.1 is no longer there, and Task manager found under Start Menu does not have the settings that allows you to end programs by tapping X. So the only option is to check now end then for open applications in Task Manager and end them from here?
Can someone please help? It feels like returning to WM5!
Thanks!

OK.
Stock rom the time was not there. But I unlocked my phone and installed kumars rom and now the time is showing on the taskbar.
Is there anyway to remove it? I prefer to have task manager there.

Hi, sorry, do you mean taskbar or the title bar (top each screen). The option for title bar option is available in the stock ROM (although I think its disabled by default). Information on your cooked ROM can be found in the ROM Development forum. If it is the title bar the settings might be the same as stock which is settings/menu/all settings/clock and alarms/more and then there the option for "display the clock on the title bar in all prgrams".

That, i don't know.. maybe it depends on your rom.
Try doing a search if there is a registry hack on this.
kumars HD2 ROM - Alarm & Clocks more tab gone
I also have same issue. The option is not under kumars rom but is in stock rom under settings/all settings/clock & alarms/more: Display the clock on the title bar in all programs.
I want to use the top corner to install the old task manager with X. There has to be a reg key somewhere to remove the clock. Any help pls?
my current rom, along with some other roms I have tried that have task managers installed, show the clock in top right, but tapping the clock performs the task manager functions.press and hold to close, tap to bringup running programs, and what not.
I tapped the clock and it brings Notifications and shows 3 options. 1 link to comm manager. 2. Link to battery. 3. Link to task manager. ok i can click task manager and see all running progs and end task them. However the old task manager with the quick list is much quicker as u just click once and X out of any program u want or swith to the program on the fly.
Try installing Advanced Config, going to the Today menu and changing "Show on title bar" to Battery?
Tried Advanced Config but only options are show battery or show clock and neither seem to help.
HKLM/SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/SHELL/TASKBAR
Limited Clock = 1
To make the battery appear instead, after changing the value of Limited Clock, change the value of ConsistentClockOrBattery to 1
Soft Reset.
Didnt work for me.
Are you using a 6.5.x ROM? (Start menu button at bottom etc) Now thinkin back at my history of ROMs with 6.5.x I don't think you can turn it off.
But since it shows both battery and time I love it
Have you tried posting your problem on Kumars thread? He is very helpful when it comes to tweaking things on his own ROMS.
Thanks for the tip. I think someone asked him but I couldn't find his answer. I will post there.
I'm using Kumar_s_Tmob_Premium_V1.5_MSVC-2 Rom.
Hello everyone,
can someone tell me that by clicking "X" in an app my HD2 will finally close programs and will not keep them running in the background...!?
In my ROM (2013/6.5.3) there is no feature in the settings area as in former times to enable or disable it. Is there any registry hack?
Thx in advance.
Nobody any clue??
Install Dutty's task manager and it will add that option to your control panel.
Another option is WKTask. It hasn't been updated for a long time and looks like the author has lost interest, but it works fine with 6.5 and even 6.5.3. Just disable the skin (which draws its own OK or X button on the task bar) - you will not loose any functionality.
Isn't there any registry solution?
Dutty's Task Manager didn't as it is not compatible with 6.5.x. The setting was added but didn't affect anything...
Try the TouchX task manager. Both Dutty's or that have always worked for me, so you may still have the 6.5.5 compatibility issue, but I've never heard of that before.
For windows mobile 6.5.x try this forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618300" its works great
In fact I do not want a task manager. I just want to close programs and not minimize them. There must some kind of registry hack for that...

No! There is none. You need a programm that runs in background/as a process which monitors the x-button and closes programms. Its just like that.
BTW. WKTask and Opera 10 dont work together. Try installing WKTask and got to landscape in Opera10. The device will crash. Can anybody please confirm this as i still love WKTask (Im on RTTs RTMi 5 ROM with 6.5.3 and Sense 2013) --> Thanks guys
I want something like this too. I came from an iPhone, so excuse my noobness but when you hit the HOME key it closes a program out, not run in the background. I want to be able to hit 'X' at the top and it closes the program out, not run in the background. I just cant believe nobody has made a run around, a .cab or reg edit for this. I hate having a slow HD2 because the proccess keep piling up.

I never said there is no solution. Theres just no way via the registry. You will need one of the millions of taskmanagers out there. I recommend Ameba (close via tapping x, minimize via holding x) in combination with ArkSwitch (complete Taskmanager, can be opened via tapping left part of the taskbar or long press sendkey). The best and most stable solution in my opinion.

Forget the iphone they invent now the multitasking....
Get one task manager and a ram cleaner(optional) and go with multitasking!!!!
You will get used of it
Take a look at Wisbar: great program, great developer and a excelant support
Hi,
i have got a contrary problem.
My running programs do not stay in the Backround.
Mostly, if i push the home or back-key, my HD2 closes the actual program. The program is in backround for a short time and then it closes.
I can see it, i have WKTask running. It is the same, if i have uninstalled WKTask, so this taskmanager is not the cause.
I have this problem mostly, not always but i can´t see the cause.
What is wrong with my HD2?
