I just picked up my Verizon HTC 8x yesterday (love it so far), but have a couple of questions. First, I have found that if you hold the back button, the phone pops up a webOS style card view of all of the apps you have open. What I can't figure out is, how do you close the apps? In webOS, you would just flick the card off of the screen and, presto, app closed. I have tried everything I can think of, and can't figure out how to close apps instead of just switching to something new.
Second, what is the fastest way to bring up the wifi connector? Again, on webOS, I would just tap the wifi icon at the top of the bar and choose a network. So far, the only way I have found to interact with the wifi connection is to go to settings, wifi, and do it from there. I know there has to be an easier way.
Finally, is there some way to adjust the sensitivity of the d@mn Bing search button? I swear that all I have to do is breathe on the fracking thing and it switches off whatever I am doing and pulls up the search.
I am really wishing Microsoft had purchased webOS so they could have integrated its simplicity into WP8. Things are much more complicated here.
