Closing applications on SPV C600/WM5

[Guest Jadugarr]

How can I close (shut down) a running application on SPV C600 ? The applications that came with the phone (e.g. Solitaire, Bubble Breaker, File Explorer, etc) don't have a quit commnand. If I press the Home Button, the homescreen appears, but the application is still running. I can only close it using Task Manager. Is there any other way to close it ?

3rd party applications, like Smart Explorer, have a Quit command.

This is not good ;) I've noticed the same thing happening on a PDA with Windows Mobile 2003, but in this case the programs had the close button and it didn't work, it just minimized the applications.

Set Task Manager up as a Speed Dial key

SP Task Manager from Binarys (http://www.binarys.com) comes with a small program "SP TM Free Mem" which closes all applications. If assigned a keypad shortcut this makes for a very easy way of closing running programs.

However I thingk xBar 3 (http://xetranet.free.fr/xbar2/?lang=eng&project=xBar%202#) is by far the best task switcher with many other useful features such as adding the ability to cut and paste. And fantastic value too - best app I've ever bought for my SmartPhone.

Just assign the standard task manager as a speed dial (number 8 for example). Then if you want to close all apps simply:

Hold number 8 to open task manager

and press number to close all apps.

click OK to accept, and then press home to go back to the home screen.

It takes seconds to do. ;)
