flashlight app?

The app is cool!!! Can you make the LED as bright as it is when the flash is used???
That would be sweet - the flash is probably 3 times as bright.
 
Bought the first motoTorch app and I just installed the new one but it doesn't seem to keep the light on when I press the widget. It just flashes on then turns back off.

did you uninstall the old version? Uninstall both, then download the new one again.

I did not uninstall the old version yet. I was waiting for after the 24 hour return period to end so the price does not get refunded. I will give it a try later today.

I am almost certain that is the issue. I just loaded up both versions on my Droid and I had the same symptoms with the widget. Removed the old version, and the new version's widget started working.

The old app doesn't seem to be in my downloaded list but I can still find the widget on my phone. I removed the new app already but can't get the old one off.

Just look for it in settings, applications, manage. You should be able to uninstall it from there. It's not on the market anymore, so you can't uninstall it from there anymore.

so the old app isn't in your installed application's list?

Correct. Could it be because it was removed from the app store?

yes, that would be why. Follow Luxferro's instructions to uninstall.

Hi Guys,

I have renamed the app from "CameraLED" to "LED Flashlight / Strobe" to get more visibility.

It's got strobe, tap, and a widget.

One more feature planned as well.

nikolatesla20, are you the creator? I have this app and use the widget, but for some reason it keeps force closing. This results in the widget not working. I have to open the app to be able to turn on the LED. Can this be fixed?


Yes, I made the other app. Not sure why it force closes for you (doesn't on my droid). You said the widget FCs? I can check into it when I get home.

Just remember everyone, you get what you pay for, free apps aren't always the best apps :) (nudges other LED coders that are now offering it for free...)

I would also like to point out a portion of the developer agreement, for reminder to other developers, of this fact:

Quote:

"Developers should only charge for applications and downloads from Android Market through the Market's Payment Processor. Developers may offer free applications as access points to paid services for which customers have registered and provided payment information. This should not be used as an alternative means to the Android Market Payment Processor to collect payment for usage of applications."


In essence, donation-ware or other methods of payment are against way the Google intends the market to function and could be a breach of contract, as it becomes a way to circumvent the processing fee, etc.

There is a Donate version of the app(Mototorch) in marketplace. Not sure if that came out before or after this post. Either way, Mototorch is great! highly recommend, and purchase the donate version if you can!
