Hello all.
This is the first application i have made. It gives you the ability to use the camera flash.
It uses the samsung sdk v 2.2 so only phones supported by it can use this application.
If you haven't already installed the sdk redistributable then download that cab and install that first.
Please give me some advice and tips on how to improve this app.
Also please report any bug you find.
Updated to v1.01:
Now it shuts off after 15 seconds to prevent damage on led.
Version number updated properly.

awesome app, now need to light the way using the touch screen light while traveling in dark
Suggestion: Should have time limit on how much time the light is ON, probably 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds...
you mean like, there is some kind of input box ( dropdown,custom,whatever ) where you say how long time the light should be on?
You could count to 10 and then press the button lol
lol..
the suggestion is to prevent accidental long usage of teh LED flash, which might reduce it's life very much.
Okay, i will deal with this
Time limit set at 15 seconds. Any other suggestions?
does this work with the HTC HD2?

I will search for an sdk that works with the hd2, if i found one will make it and release as HtcTorch?
If someone has a link to a sdk like this please tell me.

Just kidding, does anyone have one of these crazy things?
it should be more than possible to make this thing run full WM rather than just smartphone edition.

WTF Is it not touch screen? who will want this?!? lol
I DO!
since about 4 weeks
So would I. And I own a Raphael! Anybody wanna trade ? lol
Not at all. S740 is just so amazing. I am quite surprised so few people actually own it.
3G support for US possible?
Hi,
I was wondering if anybody knows if it would be possible to make a version that adds the 850MHz band for HSDPA? Maybe someone is already working on this? I do not know if the restriction to 900/2100MHz is due to its hardware design. I searched the site but seem to find contradicting info on this.
I own a Fuze, which is nice and fast on 3G but after having used the S710 and S730 I very much prefer one-hand navigation for everything else. The only thing keeping me from buying the S740 is that I want fast Internet access.
Thank you in advance for any info on this.
I think that limitation is hardware-based and therefor cannot be just "added"
HTC might work on US version of S740 but I have heard no rumors about such thing.
Guys I own one since a 3 weeks now and I acompletely in LOVE...
It is a "She" definitely (Rose)
I own one since 1 week and I m quite happy with it. Just a few things could be improved:
- Battery, mine last ~24hrs with a normal usage, HSDPA on, Btooth off, wlan off, Skype and MSN running and mail check every 10 min. But If I m in an area where HDSPA is always available (like... HOME) the battery last a lot less.
- Mine numeric keypad does a noisy noise.... like if there was sand behind the keys.
- Meteo doesn't work with other cities ( I tried everything... )
- I can t find a decent Navigation (GPS) software and a browser that actually work with the browser game oGame (I tried explorer, opera mini, opera mobile)

MSN, Skype and periodical e-mail checking produce quite some traffic and require a few CPU cycles, too. Both of these factors are quite good battery consumers.

Do you mean HTC weather on the homescreen? And what exactly do you mean? Are you unable to select different city than default or unable to synchronize data for different city?

Yes, I mean HTC weather, the problem is that I cannot add other cities (present on accuweather). There are a few tricks for other HTC devices but they don t seem to work. (The cities can be easily added but the device is unable to download the data from accuweather)

Hmm, I like my smartphones. (S710/S730/S740) Easy one Finger Navigation, you must not toogle between fingertips and Keyboards and much faster.
The most of our female Users like much more Smartphone Edition, is much easier to use for standard things.
And the today "New Email" Plugin is much better:
It shows "all" incoming Emails, also the Emails that are automaticly routed via Exchange Rules to Subfolders. With a "normal" PDA you see only New Emails that comes into your Inbox, with S740 you see all "New" Emails that are automaticly moved to Subfolders into the Today screen. That´s really the "best of" of the S740
I Wonder, why not Touch HD, Touch Pro, Diamond has this feature??

I hate touch
I hate touch screens, this is the ideal device.
i wish it was a big thinner, but frankly I am so please that HTC, Samsung, Nokia (s60v3) and others continue to manufacture non-touch devices.
They are so much faster to use, less input error, and no constant cleaning of screen!
yes that´s right. I use sometimes Nokia E66/E71 with Symbian OS, for quick & Dirty use on the road, that´s really fine, only the Nokias Mail for Exchange (MfE) Application is not so good like the one of S740. When this has same charakter sometimes, I will switch completly to Nokia´s symbian OS. ;-)
hi guys,
i'm having issues as i pull out the phone from my pocket, before i can see who is calling, i accidently touch the answerkey button on the screen. This can be very irritating, so i'm wondering if someone has an app that can:-
1. Either allow users to disable the answerkeys (touch screen only). One example here is the windows ANSWERKEYS DISABLER:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425650
Or
2. Create a new application for the android phones as many of us would like this option.
I eagerly look forward to your replies.
newbiefone
If the screen is locked, you have to slide down to answer. Not something you're likely to do accidently.
the screen is locked as to lock it, u have to press the CALL DECLINE KEY (on the most right) until it goes blank, but when someone rings and as i take out the phone from my pocket it either gets answered or the ringing goes on silent...
I simply want a hard key answer/decline phone and want to cancel any other touch buttons functions...surely if people say that android is so adaptable, there must be some software out there which can do such a function or maybe someone can create an app that allows you to disable certain touch functions?

well, this statement is not in any way less true by your problem. only problem is, so far you seem to be the only one having this problem, at least it is not important enough for somebody to write an app. android IS that open, just write an app that suits your needs...

Of course there are issues with accidental touch screen presses! Why has someone created an Answerkeys Disabler for the HTC Touch Diamond? The funny thing is that its been created actually in this forum and the responses went on for over 50 pages!!! have a look right here:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425650
So to say that there is no demand for such an app is a load of tosh...its just a matter of WHEN, not IF. All i want to know is if such an app exists for windows mobile

I think you mean android?
Didn't see such a program yet, but sure it's there. But coming from a diamond and owning a hero, I can see why the diamond would need it, and the Hero doesnt.
Diamond's hardware buttons are way larger, and don't stand out so you're pressing them easier than on the hero.
apologies stafflover. Yes that should have read "its just a matter of WHEN, not IF. All i want to know is if such an app exists for android as it does for windows mobile"
Still it would be great to have such option mate...who created that answerkey app for windows? was it someone on xda forum?
They implemented a lot of new features in the update. Neat little user powered navigation application. If you're familiar with Waze then go and download the new version... If you aren't.. then give it a shot, best of all.. its FREE!
http://m.waze.com/
i'll give it a shot...sounds nice...hope,many will join that community.
EDIT
Sorry,stupid question...my HTC HD2 ... is it a WVGA Phone oder non?!
What is waze? What is it used for? Any screen shots and introduction?
i tried the latest version WVGA but the screen is distored on my WVGA device

Waze is a Community Based Navigation Application. just go to the website and it explains everything in a lot more depth and detail.... the only issue that Waze is currently having is the "small" amount of people who actually use and utilize the applications features for everyday commuting... The reason for this is not the features or functions... because it has all the necessary tools to become the most used application on a mobile device... but rather because of just how "New" and "Unknown" it is.. if the word was spread and Waze was being used by the necessary amount of people to make the application work... Then it really would become an extremely handy and useful tool for your driving segments.

iam using samsung i8000, previous version working just fine via marketplace, but the latest version have screen distort, i'll try again later.
Thanks. I tried it. But it seems slow. Not the problem of the app. Data from wifi takes a lot of time to pull down. Which seems to defeat the idea of having updated data while you're on the move. I'd imagine it will be even slower when i use wap mobile internet.
Just notice that S3 has a new feature, Smart stay. It is a good feature and am looking for long. Sometimes, I have a couple of notes to do a public speech and would like to put it in my mobile. Unfortunately, after a couple of seconds, the display becomes dim and locked. It is very cumbersome to unlock the unit. Is there any utility app to give me the similar feature? Thanks!
you can simply use "screen on" app from the market, it will allow your screen to be awake until you close the app(any app) use on speech.
do ask your questions in Q&A thread next time
Or you can use intelliScreen, has some more functions than ScreenOn.
Both should be more energy efficient than the Smart Stay feature, because the camera isn't used here.
Wonder why Samsung used this method instead of a definition per app -.-

defention per app needs manual work, smart stay is actually indeed smart , no need of manual work to setup the apps and it also turns the screen off only when the user is not seeing the screen.

It's in beta but should work during the beta.
I hate the Priority interruptions in Lollipop. So decided to port my old XQuietHours Xposed module over from Kitkat to Lollipop.
NOTE: Please un-install the previous version before installing the new one as I lost my certs and had to generate new ones.
UPDATE:
Lollipop Support
Selection of an Additional Quiet hour
Simplified the GUI
Days of week name is picked up based on Locale
Background
The QuietHours feature of CyanogenMod ROMs is very handy and a must have for me. However, when I moved over to Paranoid Android 4.4/4.5, I missed this feature heavily. So I developed a simple xposed module to bring it back.
This application was developed for personal use and hence has been tested only on a Nexus 5 with Paranoid Android 4.5 BETA 2. Though, I see no reason why it would not work on KitKat based AOSP ROMs.
I would not install this with GravityBox as it already supports this functionality, nor would I install this on CyanogenMod based ROMs for the same reason.
Tested On
Nexus 5 Paranoid Android 4.5 BETA 2.
Installation
Download and install Xposed framework
Install XQuietHours module and activate it (download from attachment)
Reboot
Open the XQuietHours app and set time range and notification options
Changelog
v1 : Initial implementation
v1.1 : Added selection of day of weeks.
v2.0 : Lollipop Support + Additional Quiet hour settings
Screentshots v2.0
See Attachments
Credits
I have made this application by referring to the following work.
rovo89 for Xposed Framework
CyanogenMod
GravityBox Kitkat ([email protected])
WhatsAppQuietHours ([email protected])

Awesome work mate, will you consider creating one for TW
I'd like something like this, but the reason I don't use Gravity Box's and from the looks of this one too, it doesn't appear to have a setting to allow "starred" contacts or a certain group of contacts to bypass the silent mode, even after so many tried or anything. I wouldn't mind being woken up in the middle of the night if something serious happened. Family and close friends would get a hold of me for that and I'd like to keep that option open.
You should make it so you can add different time frames. (I.e. 4-5pm then 9-11pm)

Are there any apps out there that do this for specific apps? I would love to silence just email and gmail apps overnight, but not others. I guess I just want calls and texts to ring.
I have a quiet mode on my LG G3 but I don't want to actually miss something important while I'm sleeping.
Great work here though, bravo.
is it possible to only turn it on for certain days? Ie quiet hours for Sun - Thurs. Off on Fri and Sat?
This is exactly what i'm looking for. I need to be able to allow 'All Calls' or "calls from favorites". I'm on call a lot and i dont want to be bothered with texts or emails, only emergencys. Is this in the plan to implement this? I know CM and some other ROMs support this.
So far, the app looks great...

+1. One of the reasons I don't run Carbon very often except on my tablet. Currently I use Sound Profile when I am on a GPE ROM, but every so often it loses its mind and gets out of whack...not unexpected given it is a user app instead of a system level change.
Great , just installed it
Someone mentioned it earlier but would it be possible to implement multiple specific timeframes?
