FLASHLIGHT APP 2.0 Nilisco and WoW (7/21)
 

Does anyone know if there is an application; or a shortcut I can put to access the flashlight on the Mogul? I really hate having to go into Camera (and then click on the lightning bolt)




**Edited by WoW**

Added my Flashlight App.. the EXE in the app was written by Nilisco from XDA (THANKS!!!!) i just added a cab with a few options safety net etc... I take NO credit for the work that was done here! again we owe a great thanks to Nilisco!

WARNING...Nilisco and I will not be held responsible for any damage this app may cause

1.NO LONGER NEEDS MORTSCRIPT
2.Includes 3 options. user controlled on off, 30 secs on, and 60 sec on
3.I recommend using the 30 sec on if mapping to a hard button just as a safety(AKA you wont leave it on in ur pocket for 5 hours and burn ur led up)
4. Pretty Buttons in ur Start\Programs menu


Special thanks to Stroths for testing the app for me as well as fixing a thing or 2 :wink:

VERSION 2.0 Changes

1.Now uses VJCandelaLite...
2.NO LONGER includes a 60 sec light. (if u want it on use the flashlight and turn it off with the same button)
3.You can now stop the 30 sec flashlight b4 the timer is up
4.much smaller

Thanks to Cody for a bit of help ;-)

i belive VJ is working o nthis vjcandela for all the other phoens does NOT work for the mogul keep ur eyes open someone will figure it out

If you go to Camera, settings (tool icon) and then go to the Flash Bolt Icon, turn Flash on, then hit OK, this turns on the "flash light" - so its got to be easy to hack. Till then, you can use it that way.

Yeah, this is one of my biggest wants for the Mogul. The camera method works, sure, but it's a slow and cumbersome way to accomplish it -- additionally, the light doesn't stay on for very long without you constantly tapping buttons on the phone.

Can't wait for a hack to surface.

This hack has always been curious to me when people have asked it for it on devices..... do you really use it as a flashlight at times? I would never really think to do that. :shock:

yes, I have had my Mogul for about 3 weeks now. There has been MANY a occasion that I have pulled out the Mogul to shed some light. I was thrilled when I got the Mogul and saw that it had this ability (as the 700WX did not.)

It works quite well for a flashlight, suprisingly well considering it is within a phone!

With that said, A program to fire off the flashlight would be awesome, and then to link it to some button shortcuts. ahh brilliance. Someone can do it, just do it already!

I can't find the registry key for the flashlight anywhere. If anyone has any ideas, please share them.

ya coming from the sanyo MM-5600 I used the flashlight button on there A LOT. I would love to see a hack for this

Personally, I used it every day at my work to assess pupillary response (I'm an RN in a trauma unit). Also good for other various lighting needs : )

It's been released

Use the link above to get the app from pdaphonehome. The author just released a copy and it works great on my 6800. I have it bound to a hard button using AE Button Plus.
