Kill App processes - Task Manager

Task Manager on your phone?  Sure there is!  It's on the HTC EVO 3D which is running off of the Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS.

One of the improved feature on the HTC EVO 3D compare to the HTC EVO is the notification screen, where you "pull" the top bar to view notifications, status etc.


Now, you can view list "short cuts" of your last opened app and you can easily switch back, similar to how you can hold the "home" button.

Tap on the "Quick Settings" tab, you will find the list of comment settings, just like the ones you see on the default widget, like turn on/off the mobile hotspot, GPS, 4G, Bluetooth, etc.



Tab on the "Total Memory" row, you will see the "Task Manager"

It's a new feature.  Here you can kill running applications and free up some memory.  You might be familiar with the "Advanced Task Killer" app.  I hear mixed review on that app.  Some say actually it would make your phone run slower and drain lots of battery.  For me, I rather use the native feature that comes with the phone.  

Afterall, this phone has 1G of memory, lots more for you to play with,  Ah, one more thing, make sure you Move your Apps to the SD card once you've installed it!  

Laterz Guyz!
