Quick launch
Lets you set hardware keyboard shortcuts to launch applications. For
example, you can press and hold the Search key on the hardware
keyboard, and then press the “B” key to open the Browser.
Manage applications
Opens the Manage applications screen that organizes all your
applications by tabs (Downloaded, Running, All, and On SD card).
Touch a tab and then touch an application to open its Application
Info screen. See “Application Info screen” on page 326. Press Menu
and touch Sort by size to display applications in order by size.
Running services
Opens a list of services—applications or parts of applications that
provide services to other applications or that run even when their
main application isn’t running. Examples include the Swype onscreen
keyboard and the small portion of Google Talk that always listens for
incoming messages. Above each service, one or more gray bars show
what processes the running service needs and how much memory
it’s using (how much memory you would recover if you stopped the
service). Depending on the service, when you touch it in the list it
either opens a dialog in which you can stop it or opens its Settings
screen.
