Pressing the red button in the MC35 terminates a GPRS transference.Is this a normal behavior, maybe a design decision or an SPR should be opened for this?Reproduction steps...Using GPRS connection you press download in the Express GPS Connect application.When you see the download progress bar growing press the red button.The download is finished with an error message.(If you press the red button with focus on other application/window the result is the same)Tested also in IExplorer with MC35 and MC75. Downloading a file is also terminated when the red button is pressed.Can somebody provide any feedback or information on this?Thanks!Best Regards,

If you are downloading the file using GPRS and you open for example thecalculator over it and you press the red button, the download will beaborted as well. In this case the key event is received by thecalculator, not by the application using the GPRS. In MC75 I saw thesame behavior downloading a file with Internet Explorer. Just wondering if this is a design decision or something that should be addressed in an SPR
This is Microsoft's designed behavior for the red key.
I think the right trigger is handled by GPIO pin but left trigger and center trigger is handled by keyboard driver. The right trigger may also used as PTT key, besides UpdateLoader per John’s response, that is why they work differently. You cannot change this behavior.
The red button normally end the active application. That is, if you have a data connection, then it disconnects the data connection. If you have a voice connection, it ends the voice call. If you have an app running, it cleses the app.
The condition Samuel describing where download is active on a background and device is active with the different application on a foreground. If red button is pressed, the download get interrupted (GPRS session terminated). This is also happens on other devices, not just MC35.
ECRT does not handle the MC35. I will forward your question to the right person.
