The problem with most current task managers/switchers is that they
dont let you switch between programs when your in one of them.
Im using an Elf with HTC task manager V2, and to change to an open
program, I have to go: Start > Today > X button thing > program.
I very much like the idea of the HTC TS, but it could be more efficient.
I dont know about anyone else, but i dont often use the third button
along the top of the HTC TS. (theres "stop all" "settings" and "Memory")
My idea would be to make the "drop down" button stay in the top right
corner permanently, and when you click it, it gives you the list of open
programs like usual, but instead of the three current buttons, have:
"Stop this one" "stop All" and "Minimize."
The settings button could be moved to where all the rest of the devices
settings are.
This for me woule be the ultimate task manager, but sadly I am no
where near a good enough programmer yet to be able to pull this off,
so im putting the idea out there for anyone who might be able to manage it.

That was really a request in form of an idea ..... sneaky, sneaky!
Chances are that this thread will have to be moved to the Q&A section. Thanks for the "idea" though
You know, TaskFacade gets the job done pretty well also
you should try wktask... its the best because it does exactly what youre asking for... all the open tasks are tabbed at the top like your average windows start bar... you can hold down any tab for a drop down box full of options... terminate, minimize with x button option, hide from task bar (i use with phone, comm manager, etc), etc... ... i use that and morttasks app from mortbuttons with my slide up gesture... it pops up like the cube used to. its very useful when using apps that dont have a task bar like opera mini, spb mobile shell, etc... but hope this helps...

Hello,
I want to develop a simple touch scroll program launcher in C# like seen on TF3D under show all programs. So basically it should work like the KList source found in this forum and should point to the startmenu / programs directory. For each KItem there should be extracted/drawn the icon of the *.lnk or *.exe and the name of the programs. On tapping the KItem the selected program should be executed.
The launcher/Kitems should have a background image.
I thought before I will start developing (start project would be the KList project) I ask you if there is maybe a similar project in development where I could start out?
Thanks in advance,
lordbein
something like this :

But you should really adhere to the forum rules and post this question in the general questions thread...
thx for your reply. I will make my question in the General Q. thread. By the way the link to this thread is something that could be compared to what I am looking for. Is there some source code available for this project?
hey there.
i am looking for a way to switch the WM autolock on and off by shortcut.
so i need a cab which i can use as shortcut to toggle on the WM autolock by reg-key when i leave the house.
and when i am back at home, i want to use the same shortcut to turn the autolock off.
so i think that cab has to look if the reg-key is at 1 or 0 and change it automatically.
OR
and that'S pretty easy for people who know how to make such a simple cab.
2 shortcuts.
one turns autolock on, one turns it off
are there any links? maybe this is still existing.
the reg key i have to change is:
hkcu/controlpanel/backlight/autodevicelockenable
i got that bsb tweak tool. but, when i switch the autolock onb or off.. nothing changes.
so it's that key i have to change..
thank you very much..
Moved as not software release.
sorry, but why move away from any WM threads?
in WM software development there are also several cab requests.
the posts, which have been moved here, most of them never have any answers...
any maybe you write a short note that requests are not allowed in the WM app area!?
or do you move the thread back, when somebody posts the apps i asked for in here? cause, then there are apps. and i could change the REQ to APP..!?
*confused*

Hi There
I has subscribed to a few forums (like HTC Tytn2 Android Dev) and they show in my control panel fine, but one doesn't, its the "HTC Vogue Andriod Dev), this refuses to show up, even when there are new posts.
I noticed its tucked away in the 'Legacy' section of this website, I don't know if this has an affect on its behaviour.
So how can I get this forum to display in my User CP, like the rest. BTW threads in that forum show up fine, just not the forum itself.
I would like this to work, because this forum is so hard to find, now that its tucked away, it doesn't appear in the 'jump to' list at all, so I need a short cut to it, so I thought subscribing to it would help.
Please can you help me here? As I am keen to keep up to date with the Kiaser and Vouge Android developments.
Thank you
Leona.
Hello
I have a couple of ideas for applications that would be useful to smartphone users, and am only getting started gathering information.
Of the two ideas I have, one could be developed as a web application (so that a single application can be used on a PC and a smartphone) and the other probably needs to be written specifically for each platform (because it needs to handle calls).
I checked the sticky posts in the General forum, along with the wiki, and the home page, but didn't find an article for newbies that would provide a short, 10,000-feet view of what the options are, etc.
So to make an informed decision, I'd like to know what, at this point and in the near future, the main options are to write applications, with advantages and disadvantages for each.
Thank you.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Hi,
I am looking for the right place to get support for the official XDA developer app on android.
I could not identify where I can get this here on the site.
I looked here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps
and here: http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-android-app/
but neither provided a clear location where to ask questions about the app.
My question is how to add favorite forums/threads in the app (or on the web for that matter). There is a heart symbol on top the the app screen and I have no idea how to use that.
thanks!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
You can subscribe to any forum or thread. To do that from the mobile app, simply click on the start (or heart) symbol that appears on the status bar while you're viewing that forum or thread, or long-press on the thread/forum name and select "subscribe" from the menu.. To view your subscribed threads from a browser, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/subscription.php. For each subscription, you can select various options such as whether you want to be informed of new post by email weekly, daily, immediately or not at all. If you select not to be notified, the subscribed threads/forums become a list of "favorites" to which you can refer quickly. For matters dealing with the xda-developers.com site or any of it components and tools, visit the "About xda-developers.com" forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/about-xda. If you have specific questions about the XDA Android Apps, ask in the "XDA Android App - Problems / Bugs / Feature Requests etc." thread there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841646.
Good luck!
Thanks for the reply & help! I was not aware that "favorites" = "subscriptions". I was looking for another button to make a forum a favorite. It's clear now.
