[Q] Flashlight app using the camera flash? - HTC EVO 3D

I cant believe HTC didnt include this with the Evo 3D, i used the flashlight on my Evo 4G all the time.
Anyone know of an app that works the same (widget to toggle on and off). Tried the Evo 4G app, didnt work.

Rockypr posted one here for us. Thank him, not me.

I'm using "LED light" from the market. It seems to be the most basic flashlight app that doesn't require much usage of the phone. It's a simple vertical off - on widget switch. Has a 1.5 second delay after you switch on.

Best flashlight app for atrix

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:

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.

No LED app

I cant seem to get the No LED app working on the Evo 3D like it does on the Nexus. Is it not compatible?

Oh wtf, op said No Led. I was thinking of "led me know" thinking there was a new app for notification led. I already had the flashlight days ago
Sent from my 3rd Dimension of Evolution
Oh wait, I thought he was talking about the native flashlight app. I didn't think there was a no-led app in the hub??
I just Shoot3d in my pants.
I was talking about no led.. I hate that I the notification light doesnt flash while charging so I use no led.. it only works if you do not have some sort of "no lock" software running.
NoLed
On my HTC EVO 3D, when is NoLed app on and when i have for example missed call or i get sms, screen dont want to turn off.
Anybody know why? Same thing with simmilar apps.

Install Leedroid Tweaks. Go to Lockscreen Settings and select 'Select buttons to wake the phone'.

lol wow first of all, you cant just install any tweak on any phone. it has to be develop for that phone. they are two different phones haha.

WiFi toggle APK?

Does anybody have an APK for the HTC WiFi toggle that actually toggles it on and off (DINC, DINC2, TB), rather than taking you to the WiFi settings page?
I've been wondering the same thing...
Power Control widget?
Not tbe whole power confrol widget. Just the single wifi toggle widget
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
I just use a single widget to do it. It actually can do both depending on where you hit it. If you hit it center, it toggles, if you hit it near the bottom of it, it takes you to WiFi Setup.
WiFi OnOff by Curvefish
I've been wondering why the WiFi widget takes you to the settings. Seems like a shortcut instead of a widget.

I use MySettingsPro.
I bring it up with a long press of the hard search button.
MSP has a one click WiFi on/off setting & a bunch of other stuff.
Beautiful Widgets has a wifi toggle widget.

Thanks for the replies. I am really looking for the stock HTC / Sense WiFi toggle widget that is in the DINC / DINC2 / TB

different version of sense, might not work on the rezound. I know people had to patch the flashlight apk to get it working.

Yeah, I have that installed. Dumb of HTC to exclude it.
Even dumber to make the WiFi toggle the same as the WiFi shortcut. UGH!
I'd still be willing to give it a try.

Flashlight App using the most data...

I just check my data usage in the phone settings and apparently my flashlight app is using a TON of data. How is this possible? Has anyone else had this happen?
Sent from my EVO using XDA
Not sure which flashlight app you're using, but that certainly doesn't seem right. I like Tiny Flashlight, primarily because you can turn it on from the lockscreen just by shaking the phone. It reports zero data usage, for what it's worth.
Malware is how that's possible. Could also be a terribly inefficient ad engine, but that seems unlikely given how much data it's using. Report that app to Google and uninstall it.
Tiny flashlight is good. I use TeslaLED because I like Teslacoil software.

LOVE Teslacoil! Nova Prime and WidgetLocker are both great apps and well worth the few bucks they want for them.

That's the stock HTC flashlight malware very unlikely
Also I checked my usage and the HTC flashlight doesn't even show up on usage...

I'm using the HTC Flashlight and it doesn't even show up on my usage list. Probably because it isn't using any data. I'd suspect something is wrong on your phone.
Is it possible to have another app that spoofs as the flashlight when it shows up in usage? I ask because the flashlight shouldn't be using any data at all, and I don't know if its just the image quality, but the flashlight image in your screenshot doesn't look like the htc one to me. It's very close, but it's just a bit off.
I got the stock HTC flashlight, and it uses 0 data.

This is a good thought. OP, can you uninstall or disable the HTC app? If so, and the data usage continues with that same icon, it's probably safe to assume something else is spoofing it.
I had some trouble uninstalling. HTC hub didn't recognize that it was installed. Once I finally uninstalled the app with root explorer, I had trouble getting HTC hub to properly REinstall that app. I had to find an old apk from xda, install that, then HTC hub allowed me to update that app.
I'll keep a close eye on the data usage to see if it continues to change.
Thanks guys

Dang nice eyes haha the op's app looks darker
Where did you install it from in the first place? If HTC hub didn't recognize it as installed then I'm guessing you got the apk from elsewhere and it was a fake...

It was included in the rom I downloaded. I never installed the flashlight app myself. I control the led flash from my homescreen with the SwitchPro widget. The only reason I noticed it was even installed was when I checked my data usage.

I'm using Flex 360's "stock with goodies" rom v1.3

Well, if you look at HTC Hub the icon in his screenshot marches the icon they use in the hub BUT the screenshot doesn't match the icon in the app drawer. The icon in Hub definitely has less of a tint to it than the icon used in drawer.

I'm using Tiny Flashlight + LED which is great. Very useful and has a great widget to quickly turn on/off the light.
