opera wont close by tapping x only mininize, it will still be open. you need the"thingy" as you say.

6.5.x does not have the ability to close applications using the X button. I recommend arkswitch for easy app switching and killing under 6.5.x

must add in my thing it doesnt work for me either so I downloaded a task manager problem solved

Try this program over at XDA; I had the same problem when I switched to a 6.5.x ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583002. One tip - when you start it, you'll need to press and hold the start menu button to get to the start button (it's the default config, confused the heck out of me at first).

hmmm that's really odd, it should do the trick... its working on mine without any problem.. it might be the version of your opera browser or the nature of your custom rom..
if its just opera, then i guess you may be able to bear with it.. although i still sympathize you, i could imagine how much little things like this can annoy you.

If you are using the HTC task manager (drop down in upper right corner) you can set the x button to close Opera by going to:

HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\TerminateProcess

if the dword "Opera9.exe" exists set its value to 1
if it doesn't create the dword and do the same.

There are cabs around to do this for you if you do a search.

I can't find this path

HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\TerminateProcess

I only found

HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\

Do I have to create a new Key with "TerminateProcess" as name?

Please help, I"m tired of sending all the apps to the background, I wanna do a "real exit" but I wanna do it by editing registry, I don't wanna install cabs. thank you, I appreciate your help
