Can't close apps - P3400 General

Hello everyone,
Got a simple but very important problem. I can't close apps by x button even though I have installed HTC Task Manager v.2+. I think its probably due to QuickMenu who also has the same options and I used them. Any registry edits for this. Is it possible to have this feature enabled through registry permanently.
Thanks everyone !

Comm Manager - display not showing

Help, I'm not sure what I've done but when I start comm manager, the menu buttons show but the screen display does not!
I've tried downloading 3rd party app replacements but they don't seem to deal with the HD screen - part of them show on screen but the rest of the screen shows the background.
Can anyone help, please!
thanks
Paul
..............
Got into the same problem a couple of week back after installing and uninstalling 15-tab TF3D.
What did you do to get there?
My only way out short of a complete reset was to install "mROM Opal Diamond Comm Manager". Google it.
This is less than optimum as there is some problems with the display but gets you going.
If someone has a proper answer, thanks to let us know!!
I too have this problem which I assume was caused after I tried out Panosa's COMMS manager tab. I'm sure this must just be a DLL or something that has been over-written and can be restored but we need the help of an expert to point this out.
Panosa, is there anything that you overwrite that needs to be restored for COMMS manager?
Thanks. That kind of fixes it. I now have 2 com manager shortcuts. Both "appear" to lead to the same app but, one works and one doesn't!
As you say, if anyone has a better answer, please do let us know!
OK, found the problem. WHen there are more than six items selected for the comm manager, it cannot show them as on/off buttons. It defaults to LARGE buttons on the screen but the problem is that there is a bug with Manila and the background page is transparent.
SOLUTION: download schaps advanced config 3.3. In the MENU | MORE SETTINGS | COMM MANAGER, ensure that only six (max) items are selected. Then change the BUTTON STYLE to ON/OFF and voila... a normal Comms Manager returns.
My only problem now is that with all my messing about trying to get this right My 3G button appears to have lost it's icon ... and functionality
First class help- Many thanks. That does solve the problem. Well done.
Hope your 3G comes back soon.
Happy new year!!!
as golightlygl said : it seems that on touch HD the 3g functionnality of comm manager doesnt work. When clicking on the button it doesn't do anything. I've been searching on the net net for quite a moment now and I didn't find an solution.
Someone has an idea ?

[REQ] TFL3D Program Launcher Bug

Hi all,
On my Diamond, I've recently added a few new programs. For some reason, it looks like Google Maps added itself to my Program Launcher tab, but because all the buttons were occupied at the time, it created another button, so now I have 19 buttons in my program launcher tab instead of 18.
Any idea how I can delete this extra button? Failing that, any idea how I can add another 2 so I least I have another complete row of buttons?
I've attached a screen shot to show what I mean.
I've scoured google and the forums for answers but couldn't find any. Many apologies if this problem is solved elsewhere and I just couldn't find it.
Many thanks in advance for any help you can give.
rich.
PS : Many thanks for an awesome forum.
Same thing happened to me before. For me if you used TF3D Config and clear the extra button then do a soft-reset. If that doesn't work try removing all apps from the menu then one by one add them back in order until you add one to the extra one. Then another button will appear add one in it and if it doesn't make and extra one again, do it again, but this time with 2 extra buttons.
Thanks for your help, but I've just managed to solve it.
In the registry,
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\
There was an extra entry '100' as well as the standard 0-17, I deleted it, did a soft reset and the extra button was gone.

Disable rotation on phone screen

Dear All
I own a Blackstone with dutty 3.9 rom, WM6.1
I disabled Manila, I have few applications running.
I have a strange behaviour: the screen which is the active one when I start a phone call, always rotates. I dislike it. I wish it stays on on vertical position.
What I have done?
Installed changeScreen_conf and tried several settings (the prone windows process seems to be called "cprog").
I have added cprog in the "exception" list > no way to remove rotation of the phone screen...
Installed G-Config and tried to remove any application which seems related to rotation in phone: no result.
Installed HD Tweak and put sensitivy for "rotation" at lowest level > no improvements..
What can I do next?
What I am doing wrong here?
Thanks and waiting

Shall I try another rotation application whihc can really influence the behaviour of phone screen?
Thanks and waiting
Saulo
I don't have that ROM, but Gyrator 2 works a charm on my relatively stock HD. Search the +120 replies on the Gyrator 2 thread and it explains how to solve that exact problem. Mind you a playing with Gyrator for a few mins and you'll figure it out yourself.
Thanks a lot S4, I will give a try.
Do you believe i should unitstall first "changeScreen" and any other related rotation application G-config? One of them is embedded in the ROM (G-Config)
Thanks a lot!
Saulo
No need to have duplicate rotation apps as this will only confuse your device, especially if they have different settings. Uninstall one & reset device before installing another

Backlight Adjustment sliders(manual) are GONE?

Hi folks.. i'm a longtime reader here but i never needed to post.. everything was provided( Thanks for that BTW). But now, i own a Leo myself and came across a problem i didn't find answered( or even asked) yet.
My backlight adjustmen sliders ( Settings->sound&Display.->Backlight) have dissaperead. You know the ones, one is for On battery power and the other On external power. Well, they are just GONE, and it just says "Bright" in each category. I installed a bunch of tweaks, and probably one of them is the culprint, but have no ideea which one and i'm not up for a hard reset/take'em one by one just yet, after spending 4 days tweaking it to my liking.
So maybe someone knows the answer to this..
My setup:
Rom: 1.48
installed:
all 4 hotfixes, Bsb Tweaks, Duttys task manager, resco explorere and reg edit, LEd notification enabler, grzegorz B4all+20 shortcuts, .net 3.5, touch x longpress sendkey Alttab, touch x powerbutton actionscreen, touch x remove topcurtain, touch x speedup landscape album, smaberg 1% batt, touchx power management on, g-alarm, Ms reader, WMlonglife, Skyfire, JWMD Icon changer, SPB backup, Heartwolf lockscreen fix v4, tccm settings( no ideea what this one is really, it was preinstalled), and also htc IME_EastEurope( also preinstalled, also no ideea what it is).
I didn't notice the sliders gone until yesterday, and by then all this was installed.. So any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: POSSIBLE FIX BY MattOG:

::EDIT::
For a quick fix, (not sure if it'll last, though it survived a soft-reset, so that's promising)
Goto HKCU -> ControlPanel -> BackLight:
Change ACBrightness to 10
Change Brightness to 10
(Can be anything other than 0)
(These work on power of 10's, so 1=10%, 2=20%, etc)
Now the sliders are back and you can adjust manually. Still not sure what changed them in the first place though.

Click to collapse
so, apparently i am the only one with this problem? still haven't found the cause..
Well I have the hotfixes, bsb tweaks, duttys task manager and .net 3.5 installed and no problem for me, so you can scratch those off the possible problem causer list. You seem to have a few power management apps on there which may be taking this into their own hands - try removing them first and see if it comes back?
I have the same thing,
Off your list, the things we have in common installed:
4 hotfixes, bsbtweaks, resco file explorer, resco reg edit, 20 shortcuts, .net 3.5, smaberg 1% battery, g-alarm.
I've always had mine on auto, until I wanted to look at improving battery life today...

Oh, hello everyone by the way, this is my first post!
i somehow reverseed the condition myself, and came here to post, only to find MattOG allready found a fix.
What i did was, following ftr2k8's suggestion, unistalled touchx powermanagement on, also disabled power management from BsB tweaks, then softreset, then reapply power management from BSB tweaks. I did not check immediatly after that, did a few other things, like add pinch to zoom to IGO with BSB, install flashlight, fingerkeyboard, clear ram, and played around with them.. did a few softresets..
when i checked, the sliders were back. I suspect powermanagement was responsible.
No way to test MattOG's fix, but i think it's a more reliable way to try then mine
Thanks guys, cheers!
I have just had the same problem on mine
(I adjust brightness settings everynight as i watch tv eps in bed)
and the only things I had done were
update to 1.66 firmware
re-install
resco explorer, photo manager, live, opera 10 beta, skyfire, office mobile, opnmarket.
I've had all of these on before the flash so not sure why it happened.
I've done the reg fix and that's brought them back

How to enable "Close Programs on X" via registry

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 canĀ“t see the cause.
What is wrong with my HD2?
