Hi,
Is it possible to terminate an Application? I downloaded Advanced Task Manager, as i could not find a normal way of doing it!? :eek:
Thanks

go into settings ... Applications | manage apps | scroll and find the app you are wanting to stop ... long press it then release and the apps options will appear ...

Scroll down to Controls .. if the app is running you will be able to press the button to do a Force Close ...

Hi all. I've tryed to close apps from the application manager pressing "Force Close" button, but none of the apps closes, and I have Advanced Task Killer installed but it also doesen't closes any of the apps that I choose, and Advanced Task Killer doesen't show all the apps that are running. I see the apps that are running by long pressing Home button.
This happens to you?

Long-Pressing the HOME button DOES NOT show apps that are running...

It just shows the last few apps that you have started ... They may are may not still be running ... so it is like a mini short-cut popup for recent apps ...
