Returning to last app used when exiting sleep mode

Chrisk153 · #1 (**permalink**) 01-24-2008, 01:12 AM

This has probably been asked and answered but I can't find a thread with this info. I upgraded(?) from a Palm TC, and the feature I miss most is seeing the app I last used when turning on the PPC. In other words, I don't want it to show the Today screen every time I wake it up. Any help for this PPC n00b?

Thanks!

goto settings/personal/today and uncheck today timeout.

Tried that - doesn't work. Goes right to the Today screen when I wake it up. Is there a reg hack?

Do you have a PIN set? That seems to be the cause of this problem for some of us.

Man! This has been driving me nuts. Only been a problem since I starting using WM6. I had the same problem on my Apache. I am using a simple pin, as it is a policy on exchange...

Turning off the pin timeout (Start/settings/lock) did the trick. It's not a perfect solution, as I'd still like to have that feature...but I want the "last app" functionality more.

Thanks for the tip!
