Default Force quit an application?

Hi guys. Recently, I upgraded my Verizon Curve to 4.5.0.131. It was working great (seemed like I had longer battery life, etc.) Then, I noticed that some of my applications are getting funky. For example, I have the latest version of Bolt installed. When I run it, I can't quit out of it. When i hit the Menu key, the menu appears for a second, and then disappears. So, there's no way to scroll down to "Close" - or any other function for that matter.

Is there a way to force an application to quit (other than a battery pull, I mean)? Should I just downgrade back to 4.5.0.77?

I don't use Bolt, but I'm using .131 with no problems, so I'm just throwing out some ideas.

Are you using a 3rd party app? There is a known bug with Opera Mini and 3rd party themes that use transparent menus, does Bolt use transparent menus? If you are using a 3rd party theme, try switching to another (preferably, OEM) theme and see if your problem goes away.

If the problem is related to your theme, then it's up to you whether you want to change themes, or live with the problem with that theme.

Bolt is definitely 3rd party, so maybe that was the issue. However, another annoying thing to pop up was my radio randomly turning itself off, and I couldn't get it back ON! There was literally no option for Verizon in Mobile Network. So, I said to **** with it, and downgraded back to .77 No issues so far...

Well that's good that there are no longer any issues with it. Keep us posted.
