If you have Activator installed and an action assigned to "activate switcher"....make sure you disable that action before you disable multitasking. If you accidently activate the "activate switcher" while multitasking is disabled you will get a springboard crash and Activator will need to be re-installed. Just a heads up.
because iPhone 4 multitasking sucks. It runs everything you open in the background without giving you a choice. I'm going to turn it off and install backgrounder instead.
But why is that so bad, apple designed multi-tasking so that background apps don't use any system resources, they just sit there is a frozen state. And for apps like TomTom, Skype etc which do perform background tasks, you can just hold your finger on the icon and close the app altogether. Simple.
Apple multitasking sucks , I am so glad I have the option now to disable it. Because backgrounder could not work properly with multitasking enabled and apple does not give the option. One example I want to use the navigator and listen to wunderadio at the same time, I couldn't do with MT enabled but with ztoggle I can :). another example I want to download an app and while downloading in the background I want to check my email or browse the Internet and so on only backgrounder allows a true backgrounding. And by the way apple's MT does use some system resources and battery (tested).
Well, downloading an app in the background has been possible ever since I got my Iphone 3G at launch. And without jailbreaking, so your example makes no sense...
My comment doesn't make sense since I forgot to write: you don't need to swipe 50 times to switch to the app, you can always start it from the home screen as usual.
I meant downloading from cydia or downloading stuff from within an app basically any downloading could be done in the BG with backgrounder but not with MT which does not do anything except making apps open little bit faster but eating up battery and disable the real backgrounding.
