This would be a good idea, If anyone could make this it would be helpful.

Also does anyone know why I would be having issues getting the above program to work? It just doesnt make the light turn on. Any help would be awesome.

I am not sure how you could "mess up" a LED (light emitting diode) as it is a diode and doesn't have a filament like a light bulb does. In my past experience with LED flashlights, the switch breaks, or the contacts for the battery break long before the LED burns out, as I understand it, even if we left our phones plugged in, and the LED on full time, the phone would either wear out, or become obsolete before the LED burns out, as the expected lifespan for an LED is aprox. 100,000 hours, before losing up to 20% of its brightness, longer to lose more and they die by simply getting dimmer over time, not becoming nonfunctional, rather too dim to see. IS there something about the LED in the mogul I don't know about, that makes it sensitive or weak?

Greg,

Try PLamp

I have used this on my i730 and now my XV6800. Love it for your exact reasons.

Yes sorry, this is a manual install. No PC/exe or CAB install.

Just drag the exe to some folder on the PDA. I create a Utils folder under "Program Files", \My Device\Program Files\Utils\ . Then I create a shortcut from the pLamp.exe file to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ . The pLamp utility then shows up in the normal "Today - Start - Programs" location.

Hope this helps.

I don't know about messing with the LCD. LED's normally dont burn out and I would rather damage that than possibility of damaging my screen. Plus the LED is going to be way brighter than a white screen. I use Nilisco flash light and mapped my right soft button for it. You can also map it to any of the hard buttons. Easy on...easy off.

Pretty much sums up this thread. I don't know HOW many times I've been able to light my way with this bright LED at the push and hold of the record audio button. :D

Quick question. How do I map a "soft" button. I know how to map the regular ones. Did a search on "map soft button" but got no hits.

Dude,just go to settings and buttons.Select the button and then the function

Re: FLASHLIGHT APP 2.0 Nilisco and WoW (7/21)
 
Thanks but that doesn't show the two buttons with the dot on them above the windows and ok buttons currently mapped to calendar and contacts.

Re: FLASHLIGHT APP 2.0 Nilisco and WoW (7/21)
 
Try the "add button" up top. I think Spb pocket plus will allow you to if the first option fails...

jdrogan 09-13-2008 05:32 PM

Re: FLASHLIGHT APP 2.0 Nilisco and WoW (7/21)
 
Hmmm I don't have the Add button function but AEPlus will let you assign buttons. http://ae.inc.ru/index.php.
Thanks I've now got two flashlites to play with. Tried nuelight too (sends morse code etc. can never have too much stuff to fool around with) ;-)

The only flashlight program I have tested so far is nuelight. Which does work great.

I am wondering is there any flashlight program out there that disables the backlight on your screen when it illuminates the camera LED?

If you are using your camera LED as a flashlight in a pitch black situation it would be better to have the screen off so there is no light shining back in your eyes from the phone's screen.

vjcandella has an option to turn off the backlight.
