Hello!!
how to close the application???
i mean: it said to press hang up key but it doesnt close the app, it just go back to the menu!!
is it normal?? is there a way to CLOSE the application?????
thanks
For me the red button closes the app as it should.
ohhhh but you kepp red button or just one clik????
for me when i click once on red button, it go back to the menu, and the app is still running in backgroung (still open...)
i must kill it to close it...is it normal??
Hi,
Thanks for a download.
Does it keep running in the back ground for more than a minute? With the current implementation, it will stay there for a moment as there are a few jobs to finish before it can completely go down. I must admit this can be a confusing behavior.
ohhh so i press red button it close the app after about 1 min??? that's what you say??? i must try to confirm...thanks anyway...
Actually, it usually exits pretty quickly. But sometimes it takes maybe 30 seconds depending on the state the application is in. I hope it is a bit more clear now=)
well i've not had any problems closing it. simple press on end key and its pretty much gone. My only worry is that it takes a bit too long to load up all thumbnails..
i come back.......
I dont know if you understand my problem:
For me: when i press Red Button, it goes back to the main menu....OK,
BUT, the app is always running, the application is not COMPLETELY closed!!!! I mean, in task manager: the application is always open...!!!
(And if i wait 5-10 min after i pressed red button, there is no changes....)
If i want to close it COMPLETELY, i have to kill it with a task manager (like handy taskman...)
Have you the same problem or not??????
PS: i have a 5800 red XM firmware V20....
yes bro i was referring to it too. It stays in the background running tasks for me, but only for a few seconds after i press end. after that, it exits automatically.
Try Holding the END key to end the app. It quits when i press end, and not shown in the background tasks either. I wonder whats wrong with your device.
its strange..
i have re-installled 3 times...
When i HOLDING red key............it does nothing........(application always opened)
When i just press one time, it exits quickly, but still running in backgroung, i wait.........1,2,3....min..NOTHING!!!
PS: i have handy tshell, and askman installed on my device............could it be the reason of that...??
i think its most possibly because of handy taskman. i have no other apps running. V20 already uses a lot of ram to begin with, so i suggest you remove taskman and try the app.
but i want to be sure:
like that the application works as all others when we press red key: it goes back to the home page.....but application still running....but here no exit option: is it normal ? ;)
red button usually crash the apps its prefered not to use it.
what you do is hold the button menu for a second and you'll get a list of whats running
press and hold a second on the PhotoBrowser icon and you'll get a sub menu,
there you'll have exit option. choose it and it will ask if you are sure. choose yes and it wil close
gracefully (instead of crashing itself like it does with the red button)
i do agree there should be some kind of main menu gesture instead.
yeah thanks for the tricks, work good
BUT so sad to be oblige to close the app like that:: i have to long press menu key then click and hold on icon application and click again to exit.............
WAOWWwww TOO COMPLICATE for just a exit!!! loool
Fme: application works very well but no "simply" way to exit.........WHY?? lol
EDIT: i have uninstalled Handy shell and taskman and now it EXITs when i press red key!!
surely some conflicts about red key settings with all these applications...
Thanks anyway!!! wonderful application, waiting for final relase soon ;) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :):)
it closes for me perfectly when i press end key. it takes around 10 seconds max, but its gone. maybe some other app is not allowing it to close, like taskman or something. check it out...
it works now.......so i'm happy lool!! i can uninstall photoFlow looooool :)
I think I'm probably going to sound like an old tape going over the same thing - but ideally the Red key should only be restricted to reject calls, and not to close apps. If SO many ppl had problems closing this app in the past, then it might be a good idea to introduce a 'soft' exit key on the app itself.
But, overall - a good pleasing app for browsing pix. Good work, Nokia!
I have Taskman installed on my device too. I have no problems closing Photo Browser with Hang Up. The task stays for a couple of seconds in the tasks list and closes automatically after that.
I would asume that Handy Shell is the source for your problem. As far as I know, Handy Shell is reconfiguring the exact meaning of the Hang Up button (it not only closes the current app, but also starts the Handy Shell screen instead of default Start Screen). You should try deinstalling Handy Shell and look if you can close Photo Browser.
Red button should close the browser fast !... I think you should update your 5800's firmware to v20.0.012 via NSU...
*Notice* Users Using various 3rd Party Task Managers, Key Mapping, and Home Screen Applications.
Nothing is wrong with Nokia Photo Browser exiting using the end(red) key.
The mistakes come from 3rd party applications being used on your device such as task manager(of sorts & Handy Shell plus any Key mapping application.
*END USERS SHOULD BE KNOWLEDGEABLE*
Taskman & Handy Shell re-map the end(red) key according to different function users customization under their settings.
*So please try adjusting to fit original defaults system*
P.S I will not provide any further assistance since i do not use these apps, but well aware of their system effects.
@snowy:
Although in general you are right, the Photo Browser slightly misuses the Red Key. In my phone manual, the Red Key is specified to hide an application (return to home screen) not to close it. Closing applications generally is done by holding the Red Key. Photo Browser brakes this convention.
Well true in some cases, but i have seen the 5800 brake this rule many times. If i recall correct it was a change in the symbian 5th edition, which does not make clear sense but i believe it was done to more simplify S60 legacy. Well i guess trial and error can tell ;)
what a serial number?
To exit just press and hold the picture until options come out then scroll down and press exit.

There isn't a close button...
Just press and hold a picture until options come out then scroll down and press exit. It works for my 5230
Moderator joined from Nokia Photo Browser/Reviews/slow,no exit button,no zoom, in 5800
No exit button. Kinda slow in 5800. It would be nice if there's an option to zoom the pictures
Hi all..
Beautiful appliction.. Very great..
The same for audio & video files on a my N97 Mini
Easy to use it.
When you view a photos it's possible to Zoom in the photo. Leave your finger on a photo 1s after appair a "Zoom Effect on a photo. Deplace your finger on a photo for enlarge view your photo. So cool effect.
How to quit totaly this application
In front-row mode leave your finger on photo when 1s a contextual menu appair with 6 options
- Send
- Rotate
- View details
- Delete
- Folder order
- Exit
Some suggestions for improvement:
Same application for the audio & video files
Oh Its simple......just press the screen anywhere for two seconds......scroll down the menu and press exit....
