X button and SBSH iLauncher Task Manager

Hi,
I managed to get hold of a MDA Compact 3 yesterday from my local T-Mobile shop. I have installed most of what I had on my JAMin (my micro SD card won't be here until Monday so no GPS stuff) and I am just testing everthing.
So far it has all been positive with my expectations being met. I even feel the Compact 3 runs a bit faster than the JAMin overall.
There is one small problem with closing programs instead of minimising them. I have tried this both with the X button program and with SBSH iLauncher Task Manager and got the same result.
Basically it all works fine when using the stylus on the screen or the mouse pointer. However, if you use the OK/close button it simply minimises the application not close it. This is different from the JAMin where the OK button did close apps.
Any ideas?
Regards

In SBSH iLauncher options, you must check option "X close Application" ON.

Hi,
Yeah, as I said I have this turned on, it works fine with stylus or mouse pointer it is ONLY when using the OK/CLOSE button that it minimises rather than closing.
Regards

Must have application for onehanders is a small utility called AE Button Plus at http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php. This allows you to map any number of system functions and applications to buttons (each button can acquire 3 more functions by double, triple and long press). For instance, I have mapped the mouse courser to a double click of a button. I have also mapped my ok button so that it really closes applications on a long press.
I know I sound like a sales rep but I am just a appreciative user.

I saw this on the MUST HAVE thread in this forum, good luck.

Thanks, but I don't really want to install another close program, that would make three!!

Hmm - a solution to what - keys working through TomTom? ok this doesn't work so yes it's not a solution but if you want to run TomTom in landscape mode it does work so it is a solution!
Take your pick - I was just offering help.

Are you running any button mapping software? I'm using TT6.02, and have no issues doing exactly what you want - i use the IE button for screen rotation, and it works in TT, so it's not TT or the built in button mapping that's the issue.

I already map the IE button (rotation) but in tomtom 6 when I press the IE button internet explorer was opened. I just use for map button provide in WM5 (parameter/button).
In other application this mapping works well.

Same issue
Hi all i have exactly the same issue, not using any mapping software just the "buttons" menu inside settings. I can map the sat nav button to anything i like when i am running anything else but when in tomtom this button always loads the internet!
im trying to go between different applications so i cannot do what i require before entering tomtom. i also dont want to downgrade as the full tomtom6.2 was quite expensive...

I have just tried and using the O2 Orbit version and tom tom 6.01 it rotates the screen in tom tom and does NOT launch IE.
Just using the buttons settings program that came with the phone

screen rotate plugin

I now own the Orbit. I used to own the Wizard so am used to lanscape screen. I also tried some WM6 roms, namely Faria's which has a little icon at the bottom tray in the today screen that rotates the screen. Can anyone point me to such a programme? It would be so useful as I use landscape mode for my GPS in car.
thanks

Don't know about your icon thingy, but I use my start menu button to rotate my screen, double press. "AE Button plus" I find to be the most comprehensive button mapper, and I have my orbit really nicely set up for one handed use. Double tap explorer button now will launch tomtom, ok button really closes stuff, etc.

See the sixth bullet under "how to"...not exactly what you want tho.

TomTom Nav Ver 6

Can any one tell me if it is possible to run tomtom 6 on my o2 orbit in windowed mode as at the moment it is in full screen mode and it makes it difficult to use other apps when needed been looking on the tomtom program and the device but cannot find anyway of doing so.
Many thanks in advance.

TomTom cannot be run in Windoed mode. Sorry!!

Presumably the thought is that when your driving you don't need to use other applications!!
In any case, just press the windows button.

Just press the OK button and you will be returned to the Today screen with TTN6 running in the background.

GPS Nav. directa button... "mappable"?

Hey guys,
I unistalled TomTom that came with my P3300 so I could use iGo 2006 nav. software instead.
Because I removed Tomtom, my GPS hard key (1st on the left, lower line of keys) now doesnt work...
Is there any way I can map that key to use it with iGo?
Thanks
Miguel

Go to
Start
Settings
Buttons
Highlight button 1
Assign a program and set to IGO
It would also be a good time to start using a better app for buttons
I use AE Button Plus
It lets you set a button to do many different things
ie one press for Internet, 2 presses for wi-fi on/off etc

Thanks a lot.
will look into AE Button Plus...!
Cheers...
