[Q] How to turn off light (LED) while recording? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says. I'm wondering if there is any mod that would fix that problem, because it's very annoying when everybody sees you're recording.

I also need a solution for this, here's a similar thread by me:

Maybe it's something with the semc camera app, will try to decompile and see if it needs xml editings..

Yes, I've already seen Your thread, but nobody answered it so I decided to make a new one. I've already searched in the app, but found nothing interesting. I don't know if the problem is in Camera app or in libraries. Maybe You know stock based ROM without this issue?

[Q] Camera App?

Hello,
I have seen this v8 modded apk a lot, can someone clarify to me what exactly it is? I've been googling and that hasn't much helped. I use Vignette for taking pictures, and I'd like to know if there is something better?
Thanks
EDIT: I've found the thread that answers my question.

Netflix - Fooling the Device Check

There is a hack going around that I have been playing around with that unfortunetly I have not been able to get working. It is an edit for the Build.Prop file in \system. (this does require a root and some sort of root explorer) (I've tried some of the other "hacked" APK's, but I can't deal with crappy video)
Take a quick look at this article on Reddit:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/ha5oh/root_how_to_edit_your_buildprop_to_make_netflix/
After looking at that for a while I started tooling around.
Changes I made :
ro.product.model=Nexus S (Replacing MB860)
ro.product.model.internal=Nexus S (Replacing MB860)
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung (Replacing motorola)
So basically, this is supposed to fool the device check by making the application think you are using an accepted device. Like I said I haven't been able to get it to work. If anyone can see any other changes to make, any input would be appreciated. Hopefully we can get this working and share it with the community, until Netflix decided to come to their senses.
I've attached the Official Netflix app if anyone needs it
Already a working app..
Someone already posted a APK that bypasses the check.. there are video issues with colors, but that is the Atrix screen not the App...
also i'm pretty sure root explorer is a paid app, so posting that here violates terms and conditions

How is it the screen? (not arguing, I just don't know)
I was hoping that this might just fix that problem

It something to do with either hardware acceleration of how the app handles teh qHD screen. the Watch ESPN app does thes same thing.
also this method is not a good idea when compared to using the modified APK, because you are editing your actual system files through this way. and as said before this has been discussed and a different way found already on this forum.

The Atrix has a higher resolution screen than every other android phone currently available. An app, especially a graphically intensive video app, has to be designed to scale up to this resolution. Not to say it can't work, just doesn't yet.

what can I use to modify the apk? I have the modified apk already, but I want to take a look

if you don't already know how to modify APKs, then you're in over your head.

Thanks downloading right now
I had success getting Netflix to work on Viewsonic G-Tablet running CM 7.0.3.
I used the instructions posted by natemckn at reddit. As a noob, I'm not able to post links to the XDA forum (yet), so you'll need to search for the instructions on reddit or google. The post is titled "[ROOT] How to edit your build.prop to make Netflix work on unsupported devices."
Specifically, I modified these two lines in build.prop:
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
Also, I moved NetFlix to my external SD card.
Rebooted, everything works like a champ.

There's already a thread discussing all of this. Please avoid duplicate threads.

[Q] cm7 and LED flashlight not working.

I have cm7 with the new glitch kernel - my LED flash light does not work (in status bar, or via other apps). Is anybody else experiencing this problem? If so, how can I fix it?
It has been discussed many times in the CM7 thread.

I did a search and I didn't find any solutions. Do you know of any, or you just chimed in to tell me that it has been discussed.
There's nothing you can do. But how come when I search the thread for "LED" every instance of questioning the ability to use the LED shows up for me and not you?

I found a lot of questions concerning the issue, as I said before. The dates were varying. I didn't mean to inquire whether other people were asking the same question, I was really interested in seeing if there were any solutions available. I have not found any solutions, therefore, I came here to ask to see if anybody did find a fix. Did I make my self clear and help you understand what I was asking any better?
ok, there are no solutions as of now.
Now, was that so hard?
Thank you, for answering my question.

Can't use camera app and camera required apps.

I can't use the camera app. Sing! app by smule is also not working perfectly. When I start to sing with the video recording turned on, it starts recording nicely and my face is shown in the screen through my webcam. But after my recording, i can't see any video that recorded. A black screen is showing instead of that.
So please help me....
I am using Remix OS for PC.
If the camera is not working, it means that the drivers are probably missing from the kernel.
There are threads here that deal with replacing the kernel, so you should checl them as they may help.

Sorry about the late reply, I don't have as much time as I used to have.
As I has already stated, there are multiple threads dedicated to that purpose, you just need to search the subforum, and I stress this, the is a search function, you need to search and read.
And here is a (recent) example of such a thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remix-os-updated-to-kernel-android-x86-t3596789

Themes / Apps / Mods [CLOSED]Audio switcher

Looking for an app that allows me to easily switch from Bluetooth to phone speaker for videos and such. Lg had a feature built in on the notification panel that allowed me to quickly switch between connected BT devices and phone speaker for audio. I haven't found anything like that on this phone. I have to completely turn off my bluetooth if I want to show a video to somebody really quick. Very frustrating
Please delete thread. After much searching I found it.
Can you share the app details?
Sounds like an interesting use case.
Thanks

Dude. If you find a solution to a problem you've asked about post it instead of just saying you fixed it. That way you might aid others that experience the same issue

Dude, not a single person replied inquiring before I asked to have it deleted . All you have to do is go to the "now playing" tab on the notification panel, and select the speaker you want the audio to come out of.
