    Question Taskiller kills "Home" randomly


    So I used Taskiller free for a while and loved it so I purchased the full version. I had a G1 and didn't have this issue, but I did have this issue with the free one and the full version.

    I have the taskiller widget on my Home screen to quickly "kill all tasks" before I tuck it away in my pocket.

    It works fine, but sometimes it randomly kills the Home screen.... apps tab, icons, everything. Once in a while it will start itself back up kind of like when explorere.exe dies on windows, but usually it just gives me a black screen with nothing requiring a reboot.

    I am running the most current version of the program. Any ideas? Thanks.

    i uninstalled task killer because it was slowing down my phone like crazy!!!

    you could try putting some of the tasks on the ignore list so that it doesnt kill it when u click on the kill all

    now i use "advanced task killer" i like it

    I have 3 apps on the ignore list, the problem is that for obvious reasons it doesn't show system files/progs running.

    I tried advanced task killer.... I really like Taskiller, just wish there was a fix for this or an easy way to "restart" the Home process.

    Thanks.

    Make sure when you run task killer that touch input and home are not checked.
