[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jolas:
Run uTask settings and untick 'Vibrate' option...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tsalta:
Like i say this is MUST HAVE for all 6.5.3 Users.. befor i don`t like 6.5.3 Only because not have a good taskmanager with one single click to kill the process and when you are in some app and press X the application do not close only minimaze and this was So so bad and ugly.. NOW all this problems gone with this amazing uTask

Thank you very very much ultrashot

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
:mad: All that net cf framework forms are driving me crazy. Have I asked you if problem appears with position fix turned off at all? Try, please... It will give me a development vector.

And another question. Are you sure that dll was really replaced? Check modification date, please. I usually remove all utask libraries before trying because sometimes resco explorer (or OS itself?) makes file copy named with a hexadecimal suffix.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] User_99:
Still testing, but here some update: I don't use "position fix" - it is off here on my mobile and dll should be really replaced via Resco File Explorer and reboot of the device - no hexadecimal suffix. :)

HI, Need Advice

Hi,

I have been using kwbr v2.3 on my TP2 and installed uTask 1.3, but that is causing my Menus to not open, when I uninstall it the menus work perfectly...

will really appreciate if you can help.

Regards,

Nilesh

Hi,

FYI, I runned into the .NET issues whith TICS and uTask. I have sorted it to the .NET coming whith 23152 SYS.

I have updated to 3.5.9198.00 and problems are solved... Ah! the version 3.5.9085.00 coming whith 23152 is different from 3.5.9085.00 coming whith 23569 so maybe is something in the 23152 dlls... the GACS are the same in both versions
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fubo73:

Found same information in the original [APP]Touch InCall Screen Tweak v1.2.0 - Thread. But I'm using now an older ROM with older .net version and got problems after using uTask (already reported in the past) - still testing latest bug fix update and will report back in the next 2-3 days :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] User_99:

Use 12.11.01 files and uTask 1.3.

Is there a guide on how to add to uTask's exclusion list? I tried running it on my custom rom Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium) and when going into the options it will show me the exclusion list but no way of adding to it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
add a new line to textbox and fill it with needed exe file name.

BTW, I just checked and found out that I already use .NET CF 3.5.9198, so it seems to be true solution for .NET CF applications.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
uTask can make such problems visible.

You are the first with such problem. A lot of HD2 users use uTask without problems. Also there are no any problems with Sense as I use it myself. Are you sure you use WM6.5.3/6.5.5 (funny question, but ...)?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sharkie405:
So, I hit the thanks button on the 1st post, but I had to come in and give a personal thanks for this great app. Someone told me about it yesterday and it is exactly what I've been looking for. I want to close all apps/programs that have an "X" button, with the "X" button. I want it to work 100% of the time without fail. MMTaskManager could not do this, Ameba definitely does not do this.

Yours is the first app that actually makes X close 100% of the time!! It doesn't even seem to be using a lot of mem or batt. to do it either! Bravo!! Many Many thanks!

I love how customizable it is to. It can be set so you would almost forget that it's there working. This app as helped make my ROM that much more stable.

:)

Oh and just as an FYI to anyone. I'm on a:

TP2 (WVGA)

6.5.X (Currently 29007)

Sense 2.5.2019
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] User_99:

Thx for your effort
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] djsolidsnake86:
you will update .net in build 26? i hope soon!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] User_99:
Update: New ROM version with latest .NET CF - and same problem as before. Sorry, but I got same error messages as before :confused:

2 Update: I think Touch Incall Screen Tweak has a problem with newer ROM like 23151 because I also get errors now without using uTask. Mabye CHT 2.0 could be also a reason.

Solution for me: NOT using "Touch Incall Screen Tweak" use PowerKey" to switch off Screen while have a call. And using uTask have a great tool for closing applications ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] burakgon:
thats really great app I like it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
Sorry, haven't noticed this part of post before.

Interesting. During utask's dev some russian chiefs reported me about freezes with builds >= 23150. I fixed this problem somehow. Your problem may be the second part of this endless "latest wm6.5.3's bugs" saga :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bbeni:
uTask so cool, i have CHT2 conflict too. I get two different NetCF error popup, but without inCalltweak working very well...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Matthes42:
Freezes with uTask and CHT

I´m using CHT2 and uTask. I really love both of these apps. but randamly I get freezes when my device goes into sleep mode. I assume that it is the HD Mini lockscreen in combination with the position fix of uTask.

Does anyone know the name of the HD Mini lockscreen used by CHT so that I can exclude it from Position Fix?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Abdur Rafi:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pasza_sadyka:
I have little problem, use kwbr rom for TP2 and uTask work ok but only one thing - menus after install uTask shows for 1 sec and gone. For example in mail menu send/recive, copy, etc shows and gone :/ i don't have time to choise option.

EDIT: Ok, everything works perfect now with files 12.01.11 :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stathis95194:
First of all thanks for this fantastic application. It's working perfectly on my Leo. I face just one small problem and i noticed that it's the same on many Leo ROMs.

After uTask is installed, the XT9 never recognises the first letter of the first sentense if this is an sms, an email or whatever.

If uTask is uninstalled everything is ok.

Is there a solution for this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
Guys, try this. If it works ok, then it will be 1.4 public release.

As always: make a system backup
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stathis95194:
Confirming that with 1.4 the problem i posted above is fixed. Great work ultrashot!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ::indie:::
I also confirm than the problem is solved,

thank you ultrashot :)

Email problems

I am delighted that the XT9 issue has been fixed but may have discovered another regarding email. I wanted to add email to the exception list so it stayed running. So I put tmail.exe in the exception list. It worked but exhibited some odd behaviour. If I open the inbox sometimes I have to click on an email twice to open it. I then have to click the X twice to close the email. Furthermore the menu key on the open email becomes greyed out. I removed tmail.exe from the list and after a soft reset it was ok again albeit with X shutting down email.

Also I was typing this post with my Touch Pro2 hardware keyboard and noticed that if I type a word and then use backspace to erase it, I have to press it twice to remove the last letter from the screen and sometimes when I type the new word the letters start to double up.

Has anyone else seen either of these problems?

I am using a custom Windows 6.5.3 ROM with Sense 2.5 on a Touch Pro2.

Cheers

Ashley
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ashmont:
The keyboard problem seems to occur with Opera Mobile and Opera Mini but not with other applications. However the problem occurs with soft keyboard too.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
Exception list lets WM control apps closing - uTask doesn't take part in it.

No. Works ok on my phone.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ashmont:
For point one - I may have misunderstood what exceptions do but having tmail.exe in the list made email exhibit strange behaviour as described and taking it out fixed the problem. If others have the same issue then it may be caused by uTask.

For point two - did you see my follow up note that it seemed to only occur in the Opera browsers? I'd be interested to see if you have the problem in these apps.

In any case neither of these issues are major for me as I don't do a lot of typing in browsers and I can use the hardware back button to close email without closing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
Of course, tried it in native opera mini 5

Check how tmail.exe works on 26.03.11 release (just added it to the first post).

1.3 and 1.4, click on the task bar time, start Task Manager, is not normal; reboot can not be activated.

1.2 normal.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:

I didn't understand your problem. If you wanna say "Clicking on task bar clock opens task manager - it isn't normal", then you have to read the first post and/or go to settings.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tony1980122:
Thank you for your reply, which may be my English is not good, not described clearly.

1.2 version, the latter in the set, click on the task bar time, to open the Task Manager; reboot can also be the case.

1.3 and 1.4 versions, the latter in the set, click on the task bar time, to open the Task Manager; but after reboot the device, then click the task bar time, it will fail.

"Utask" is my WM6. 5. X feels the best Task Manager, the interface is very friendly, very official. Thanks again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
tony1980122, there is a little (not little on some devices!) timeout before utask takes control over taskbar clock. That's done in order to wait for other apps like HTC Notification Enhancement that receive touch events of taskbar in the same way.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jjollyroger:
hi, the app is really useful, I used Ameba and can confirm this is more battery friendly.

I had a related issue on my hd2 (WM 6.5.5), when uTask is installed I randomly have to tap twice to select an option in drop-down menus.

tested on WM with sense disabled, not yet tested on sense's menus.

Any suggestion?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Laurentius26:
Hi Ultrashot, :)

uTask is very beautifull, thank you for your hard work.

I'm having a small problem and I hope you have an answer.

When I cook in uTask right after flash during device setup I get an option to set local time and date.

If I tap that button it's delayed, it doesn't popup immidiatly with the clock.

You have any idea how I can solve this?

Without uTask everything is fine, I double checked it.

Edit; I'm running the latest version of uTask.

Grtz,

The option suggested in Dutty's ROM is not a solution. What that actually does is just to minimize tmail.exe and not close it. If you want to close it completely there is the inconvenience of the double tap

Random problem - Start Menu does not start

Hi Ultrashot,

I've been using the march version of uTask, and found a weird problem when using Notification enhancement and Menu enhacement from the latest Oboe 1.18.

Ramdonly after fresh flashing or hard reset, the start menu does not start and them manila does not start.

Do you cook these Oboe packages in your ROM?

have you seen a similar problem?

EDIT:

Not related to Utask.

Thanks for your good work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ultrashot:
I don't like oboe packages, so I don't use them. No such problems on my packages.

btw, N.E. and M.E. aren't responsible for start menu and manila anyhow.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] heineken78:
Have seen Utask 1.5 is released for your wm rom.

Does it goes to public?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Dear Ultrashot,

I'd like to ask you for a brief explanation.

For the past 6 months I use Jackos Rhodium EVO ROMs (earlier on build 28236 and now on 21690). They have uTask cooked in from the beginning and I love this tool. I always configure the "cross softkey" for Close instead of Minimize.

But for several months I have a minor problem with applications not being able to store their settings when closed using Close softkey.

The example here are CorePlayer, MobiPocket, Word or AdobeReader. The CorePlayer and MobiPocket have their own Close functions in their menu, and when I use the "built-in" Close function they close and store the settings. But when I use Close softkey they are closing but no settings are stored.

Since Word and Adobe don't have any other Close function I have to set their preferences every time I start them.

But I'm almost sure that it did not work this way at the beginning. This is a minor issue so I didn't dig up as well, but today a guy from Polish forum has drawn my attention to the difference between uTask closing and built-in closing.

Can you comment on this? Does the "Close" action from uTask really closes application or just kills the application process?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aloysius987:
u task is just quick linking to the phone's default task manager and the default phone task manager probably by Microsoft was made way before all those their party apps like coreplayer and adobe for windows mobile thus they of course programmed it to kill or force close these apps as it does not have knowledge in telling each apps in each way to close and save settings... well Microsoft surely didn't have time to make more new Roms as new third party apps arrived just to let the default task manager tell those apps to close and save settings nicely...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Hello,

Thanks for explaining.

But one thing is still unclear for me.

If I use the same third party apps under WM6.5 environment, they always save the settings when closed with the "X" in upper right corner, which is - afaik - the native function of Windows Task Manager.

If uTask function is just calling Task Manager to close an application, then it should behave in similar way, don't you think? That is why I asked for explanation.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
UPD:

I made some experimenting.

uTask 1.3 and 1.4 work well. They trigger closing apps. The problem is only with uTask included in Jackos ROMs. I can see by the version of dlls that this is different than the ones in 1.4. And the behaviour is different there. Perhaps this is just a matter of settings?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 3to4:
Application icon(s) in Status bar

Hello,

I have upgraded to WM6.5.3 recently for my old HD2.

I have been looking for a task manager which can close applications with X. I have tried XTask, too.

I like uTask very much, but one feature I would like is to see running application icons in the status bar. For instance, I use Skype, and if I see Skype icon in the status bar, I know it is not closed and it is running. XTask has an option to show icons this way.

Is there an option which I may have overlooked? Can some one recommend a program which could just display running applications in the status bar?

PS: Position fix is working well for Garmin Mobile XT. (XTask does not work in my case.)

Thank you any way for the nice program!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mister B:
Just updated to version 1.4 as realized was still on version 1 while setting up a new HD2.

This is an excellent bit of software & I expect it would of only been improved further if WM had not been dropped by MS ... If only android was so efficient in quality software innovation rather than bloated junk that fills the app market. Thankfully my company issue HD2 saves me from the data pig & app permission scandal that is blandroid ...

You just use CHTEditor to add a Custom softkey (CHT2 allows you to add 3). You can create whatever icon you want for it. Keep in mind if you just want to launch a task manager from the softkeybar, you may need to point to that .exe rather than uTask.
