Multi Task Challenge

We currently have verizon cell phones, one with data capability added. We also have a hard wired phone through ATT through which we also get access to the internet. ATT charge is $70 per month for phone and internet. I would like to replace home phone with a verizon device but then how do we get internet access. Also, security system and DirecTV require hardwire phone service. Any suggestions to get home phone, internet via verizon and still keep DirecTV and security folks happy?

Let's review options Sturdy! If you need a landline for your security system it sounds as if I need to get you connected to our Landline/Fios team. You can reach out via Facebook here http://on.fb.me/SGYYEM for assistance with landline and home internet service. Thank you.

My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?

What are your impressions of "multi-tasking"?

If you have iOS4 and a capable device, you should have multi-tasking and opened apps appearing in the task bar. Newer app versions are able to run in the background. In my opinion, when I close most apps (by pressing the home button), I want them to close completely, not run in the background. Aside from being a privacy issue, apps in the task bar may use battery power or if truly in a suspended mode, they still take up memory or process capability. In order to really shut them down, two additional home button clicks and then two more screen strokes are required. Not very efficient and probably leading to an earlier home button failure. Why not have some kind of screen command (tap or swipe combination?) to simultaneously shut down all apps in the task bar? The bar itself is useless if you have used many apps in the course of a day. To find what you're looking for, you have to scroll through a long parade of icons. It's a lot easier to just tap the icon where you know it is sitting in the nice folder you created. I don't get it. I realize the bar can be used for switching open apps, but this is really not that big of a deal for the vast majority of apps. Furthermore, there should be an option to enable or disable multi-tasking globally as well as for individual apps. Now that would be an improvement.
What are your thoughts?

I havent done any kind of multitasking on my ipod touch, im waiting to upgrade my software to the newer one. However, I couldnt agree more with that of pressing the home button many times to perform basic function to switch apps or enable the multitasking ability. I think palm adapted a better design of software than apple ever did with their IOS 4. Palm's webOS can handle full multitasking--something the iPhone can't do. Palm uses what it calls "a deck of cards model" for managing multitasking: You can view each of your open applications at once, shuffle them any way you choose, and then discard the ones you want to close. All of this is done with intuitive gestures that mimic handling a physical deck of cards. Apps remains live, even when minimized into the card view, so changes can continue to happen in real-time, even if you've moved on to another activity.
I had the time to experience a bit of a palm web os software on an AT&T store and my impression on that software is done more elegantly than apple multitasking home pressing button system.
P.S to NYtroutbum: you should definitely present that idea to apple by its feedback product page. Let's hope it listens.

this is not smart phone

Where is the Asha line advertised as smartphones? afaik Nokia is clear these are (entry level) featurephones based on S30.
If you would be better of with a different phone why did you not do your homework before you bought the phone?
Nokia Belle will not come to Asha phones. Bell has completely different and much higher hardware requirements.

Multi-tasking not working

I just updated to the new iOS 4 and when I double click it does not bring up the multi-tasking menu, but rather goes to my phone favorites. I have went to my settings-homebutton -> but there is no option to switch it to "multi-tasking" is there something I am doing wrong?

That's because you have a 3G and not a 3GS. The 3G doesn't support multi-tasking.
If you indeed have a 3GS then somehow you downloaded the wrong version of the firmware.

Do all apps have to be rewritten to 'multi-task'?

I only ask because some do multi-task and others don't.
Some like the updated Google app remain at the same place you were when reselected from the taskbar, but most don't, they just reload from scratch when selected in the taskbar.
For example, what would be useful is to be able to come out of a game (for example) to answer an email and be able to go back into the game and continue where you left off. At the moment that is not happening.

Thanks Malcolm. I guess the answer is yes to my question, so patience is required!
The only game of mine working (including a lot of the biggies like Doodlejump, Angry Birds, ParaPanic) is Harbour Master. All the others just restart.
Some apps work, e.g. Google, Facebook, but most don't, like Wikipedia.

Can't use airplay and multi task anymore.

First of all, I would like to say I love my Apple TV. The one thing I didn't love when I first got it was when I watched a video or YouTube video on my iPad 4 and used the airplay it would show up on the TV but I had to leave that screen open on the iPad and couldn't do anything else while it was on the tv. The same thing happened with my iPhone 5. Then one day it started working. I don't know if it was an update or what but I was then able to use airplay on either device to watch something on the TV from my iPad but able to multi task and get on Facebook or Safari or whatever. Then one sad day came along and it stopped working and worked like how when I first got it, which was a disappointment, especially after it working for so long. Is there anyone out there that knows how to fix this issue? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Ps - my Apple TV is up to date and I have already tried restarting it.

It is possible that Google broke background playback in the latest update. Unfortunately I cannot check this myself because my iPad is only running iOS 5, whereas the latest version of the YouTube app needed iOS 6.
Still, it could also just be a glitch. In which case restarting your device might resolve the issue. (eg. press and hold power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears).

How do I see the multi-task menu bar?

I am trying to find a way to stop the app "Magellan Road Mate" when I am finished. Seems simple, however, there is no provision for turning the app off. Magellan says to go tap and hold the icon in the multi-task menu bar until a - sign appears then tap the minus sign and that will turn the app off. Being among the technically "near illiterate", I can't seem to find the "Multi-Task Menu Bar".
Can anyone help me out? Any direction will be appreciated. It is embarrasing to be walking through a lobby in a hotel and suddenly your hip speaks...."recalculating route..."

Get back to the Home screen, double tap the Home button and the icons along the bottom will turn into the multitasking bar. Tap and hold one of these till they wiggle with a minus button on them. You an scroll sideways to find the apps you wish to close. Press the Home button once to remove the button then once again to return to the Home screen.
If you have an Apps running when you double tap it will not appear in the multitask bar till you exit to the home screen or change apps.

Multi tasking during phone call????

Can one no longer multitask while making a phone call on the Z10? my old 9320 you could be on speaker phone talking at the same time typing a text to another contact.. I tried swiping up and minimizing the "phone" screen to get to BB hub but it hangs up the call and when you swipe up it swipes across the end call surface.....so my question is is what am i doing wrong or does the Z10 not allow multi tasking during an active call?

Must be my fat fingers then as I have tried numerous times and everytime it hi-lites the "end call" display and hangs up....but it nice to know it can be done.....the end call button is in a terrible place, even hung up a call by hitting it with my chin.
But Thanks for the reply

So multi tasking..phone and messages showing up in multitask bar

So this sounds silly.. i m kinda confused on how the multi tasking works..right now i am have only 2 apps running in the background phone and messages..does that drain my battery by running or r those frozen..and i feel like the multitask bar is in some cases a shortcut..so what happens if i donr close the phone and messages in the bar when i go to sleep any battery drain?

Think of it as a "Recently Used Apps" bar, instead of a "Multi-task" bar.

If you aren't on a phone call, those apps aren't using any power, so shouldn't affect battery time. There is no need to shut them down.

Why has Apple decided the 3G won't have mult-tasking with the new OS 4.0

Just would like a answer if apple would re-consider enabling multi-tasking on the iphone 3G when they release OS 4.0, maybe in a limited form.
My experience is the iphone 3G will often leave applications running in the background on OS 3.x and I have to use "freememory" third party app to clean it up when the iphone becomes too slow.
This suggests to me there nothing technical why the 3G can't have multi-tasking as in away it already does do this when the applications aren't closed.
Maybe if they limit the multi tasking to 3 applications on 3G, rather then none out all, this would make me happier.

The developer response as to why FreeMemory no longer available:-
"Apple has demanded that we remove the feature to Free Memory from all our apps. We have decided to remove our existing Free Memory 1.5 and MemoryInfo 1.1 apps from sale. We have instead submitted Free Memory Lite and MemoryInfo Lite without the Free Memory feature."
So I suppose I was lucky to find the tool before Apple banned it.
It is interesting as most iphone's have 8 or 16GB of Storage RAM, but only 128MB 3G, 256 3GS of runtime RAM, and because the phones doesn't have the ability to use virtual RAM, memory is limited on iphone, this would of been a nice feature to add to OS 4.0.
My opinion is Apple decided to limit functionality so people are forced to upgrade to the latest iphone, a little cynical I suppose, but I feel is true.
The release of the OS 4.0 and not providing multi-tasking for the 3G is probably another example as it doesn't really appear to be "technically not feasible".
I feel the developers need a bill of rights, as Apple decisions to "ban" apps is too arbitrary and unfair.
Sorry for my comments about Apple policy of banning apps or limiting functionality it just my opinion, although I think it is shared by many.
To some find my comments harsh but it is in Apple interest to make all iphones the best phones in the world
