is there a way to prevent the stock samsung task manager from killing Svoice running in the background? I use wake up command when screen is turned off to find out the time, weather, and make calendar appointments etc. and I use task manager's "end all" button to shut down apps that are not in use to free up ram. Is it possible to do this on a non-rooted phone?

Hey
I have a small grip against Comm Manager. I use it a lot but I hate the fact that when you hit exit it actually stays open in the back ground (if you go into your memory settings and view active programs it will say Comm Mgr there)
Anyway to make it force Exit Comm Manager when I hit exit ?

Hi ludester..
Dunno if ya figured it out yet, but it is possible for u to ask the phone to shut down the progs(comm man. by just pressing, not holding the "X"
>settings>buttons>..go figure
kind regards
hold x
if you push on the x and hold it for a few seconds it turns off the running program. a short push on the x just minimizes it. you can also go to running programs and shut it off. hope that helped.
I haven't seen any tweak that will force quit an app or running process by just tapping X if it designed to keep running.
Wk task mgr works very well to force quit. Also shows the comm manager still open in an XP style task bar. Similarly you will see active sync running after a soft reset. (not just running in the background as you say)
Or just map a link to taskmgr.exe in the windows directory. Quick access to force quit any app or process.
I agree about your gripe concerning the comm manager kept running.
If you go to Start->Settings->System Tab->Task Manager->Button Tab, you can change the shut down command from tap and hold to just tap.
I use Calender SBHC a lot- its great. but everytime i try to get out of it, it closes. is it possible to force it to stay running in the background even if i press the X button in the top right.??
otherwise it takes time to load up each time
Don't close it with the cross, press only the ok the hardware ok button, it will minimize the app. And make the calendar in the taskmanager to an exclusive app, so it will not be automatically closed.
You can allso add it to the exception in the HTC task manager settings.
Start the program, go to settings, system tab, then Task Manager.
Long press on SBHC and click add exclusive .
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
When i press the power button and unlock the phone, and immediately after that, open the task manager. Video Player, and MP3 Player are ALWAYS started. If i let the task manager kill the programs, and i lock and unlock the phone (power button) they're on again! Gallery and some other programs do this every 5/10 times.
Is there something i'm missing or.. ?
software options configuration issue
did you install some sort of autokiller software?
Yes, "Advanced Task Manager".
Just uninstalled it..

Gallery, settings and messages will never be killed by an autokiller, they just repopulate. I think they're all part of Android that just get shown. I've read that you can delete Gallery, but I figure I might use it once a month so I'll keep it. Literally, kill gallery, open ATK again and it's there again, 5 seconds later.
Anybody know how to assigned Task Manager to the slideview button? So swithching from one application to another would be easy by simply pressing the button.
