yeah there is. one is made specifically by motorola for the droids, I tried and am using it: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.motorola.dlight&feature=search_result
the first time you open it it be be on the "on" position, but the led wont be on. you gotta toggle it off and on again for it to work from then on.

Worked like a charm for me. Thanks
found a problem with it, the LED stayed on when I hit a menu button and jumped to the home screen. Task manager says the app is not running. When you open Droidlight again no light bulb appears. Anybody else have that problem?
Is there a root app to make it brighter? This brightness level won't work for me.

Had the same problem with the motorola app. In fact (I use ADW so not sure if that was playing a part) last night while playing I ran in to a situation with the led stuck on and the app wouldn't relaunch. Very flaky. I think I'll wait until someone makes a widget app specifically for us.

Tiny Flashlight + LED should work on Atrix. Also, it has a widget.

I had the same issue with Tiny Flashlight that I did with DroidLight (I actually tried it first). (Though I will say the LED never got stuck on - it was just slow and would get confused between the state of the widget and the state of the LED).

What's the best flashlight app for the atrix that utilizes the dual led flash for the camera?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I use extended controls and it had a widget that you can add a button for light. Uses both led's
Wish we could get the htc one though. It had 3 power settings. Was awesome.
OMG! I have an Atrix! [XDA app]

Try this one. It is from Motorola and is compatible with the Atrix:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.motorola.dlight&feature=related_apps
The best part, it's free. Extended Controls does work but it costs money.
This one is what I am using and it works perfect.

Brightest Flashlight free.
Moto Droid light works well, and is quite bright. Unfortunately it also has a tendency to crash or lock the camera if the screen locks while it is running.

I use "LED Light" and it has a sweet widget for quick access. It's been a life saver at times!

Not perfect, it has a lag time for turning the LED on or off whereas DroidLight, for example, is instantaneous. The lag time isn't even consistent and the screen doesn't indicate the change at the same time. Happily replaced that app with DroidLight thanks to this thread.
On a side note, DroidLight doesn't let you leave the LED on and do other things... the light turns off once you leave the app screen.

Tiny Flashlight + LED, i dont post the link because i cant (newb phase)
Sent from my atrix 4G running nottachtrix
available in the android market. This app is awesome! reminds me of my bb back in the day. Lets u change the color of the notification LED w/out being rooted!
Awesome find!! it works perfectly
Been using it for about 2 weeks now, works really well, just wish the light would stay on constant instead of flsahing, had the light setup like that on my old Desire running MIUI, found it really handy having it on constant. But not to worry, not a huge problem.
I just installed Light Flow and for some reason it only works when my phone is in sleep mode. Is this normal? How do you set it up. Thanks
So can you make different colors with the notification light?

Anyone know of an app that works with ICS? I can't get Tiny LED to work.

Are you referring to Tiny Flashlight + LED? That one works for everyone. If it's not working for you, I'd suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the app.
You can put the widget right on the home screen, where it shall stay until the great efpophis works his magic one day.
If you're running a ROM which doesn't wake the screen for a text, and that annoys you, try SMSawake. Its simple and works flawlessly. No pop ups. Nothing. Just screen on for the length of time you set...
Sorry if posted before. On phone and can't search very easily.

or you can simply use any number or messaging apps that give you way more control over the system than the stock messaging app (handcent, for example, lets you set the screen wake with or without popup, and change notification tones for different users, among others. i'm sure gosms and other messaging apps give similar advanced customization as well).
We all know that. For those that don't want a spaceship for a messaging app, there's this tiny simple solution.
Works very well...

There is probably an option in the messaging app that allows the screen to turn on (depending on the rom).
Most disable it for BLN support.

Not in any messaging app I've seen. I've only seen it in 3rd party apps. And you can have the screen wake and BLN. It just activates when the screen turns off.

I have it in my messaging app. Also Bln on ics with stock messaging app does not work of the screen is activated when receiving a message, so screen wake needs to be disabled for it to function properly.

Nice. thanks
Radio is now 1.12.11.1119 and 4G is working inside my office building...no more having to go outside it seems.....
Updates to the Gallery. Now when you open it up you can pick the source
Update to the music app. Same with gallery...you can pick the source.
Update to how it handles 4G and WiFi..basically promising to turn them off when it knows it won't need them as opposed to always scanning.
Update to message app. There are more settings for personalization such as changing bubble colors and background
Low res contact fix which is common for all 4.1 I think
Color scheme change from green to blue to match JB
Pin enabled lock screen change
You can open up the maps to see where your pictures were taken
Stock browser has new look and is JB updated
Power saver
Keyboard has been changed up as well. Now can turn off arrows. Can't turn off prediction (well idk how to)
And more stuff...so far what I pointed out is just what I found to be important to me. I just now got to install this >.< I unrooted and updated.
Edit:
The HTC music app widget in the notification area now has the option to go back as well as pause and go forward
Wallpapers no longer scroll (figuring out of this is on purpose or if there's something i need to mess with)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKrJaB6OUvI&feature=youtube_gdata_player If anyone wants to see the update before us rooted people get it. Not my video just throwing that at there.

I was hoping that the ringtone and notification volumes would be separate, but they are not.
Oh well, same old work arounds...
the sound in poweramp mutes temporarily whenver I hit the power button.
Soundhound app button
The soundhound app that was built in now has an icon in the apps tray. Never did before and I had to search for it. I know there was a workaround, I just never got around to doing it.

A feature I noticed when about to go to bed...in the clock app, when setting an alarm, the minutes dial now snaps to 10 minute increments. Pretty convenient compared to the previous endless spinning behavior!
is this the new gingerbread update?
