Returning to the Previously Used Application

[deerjesse]

My question is one of navigation. It seems there is no default "go back" button on the Centro to return to the application that you were previously using before receiving or making a call.

Here is an instance of what I mean:

I'm using Google Maps, looking for stores in my neighborhood. A few come up on the map, I tap them and make a call directly from the map.

But nobody is at the store, so I hang up, and I want to go back to the map to find the next store. But after hanging up, I am in the phone program of the Centro. I want to go right back to the map. It seems I have to press the home button, find the Google map application, and then select it from there.

It seems there must, or at least should, be an easier way to go directly back to the program that I was just using.

Any tips, ideas or solutions?

thank you!

You probably have tried this, but just in case: set up a button to link to your favorite, or often used, application.
By any chance, do you know how to return to a call on hold after accessing a different application such as the contacts list? I have not been able to figure this out???

OK, for the phone app problem there is an app called phoneswitch which should flip you back to the app you were in previous to the call. Also, pressing and holding the house key brings up the 10 most recently used programs so that would be easier than "hunting" for the application.

Keep holding the home button after the list appears and the previous app (at the top of the list) will be started.
