Widget-based LED Flashlight App on the Market

I have been talking a few other people with rooted DROIDs running 2.2, and it seems that now that I officially support Android 2.2, it no longer works with any of the ROMs.

I am not sure what I can do. The application works as expected on a non-rooted DROID running 2.1, and a non-rooted Nexus One running the Google released version of 2.2.

I was thinking of adding a setting to the application that the user can select to tell it that you are running a ROM instead of a released version of Android. Then in the application, if I determine that you are running 2.2 and you have the option selected, it will act as it did before the update.

That's about all I can think of to try to support ROMs. I don't have a ROM on my DROID, so I can't test, and I don't plan on rooting my DROID.

This issue is definitely an issue with the ROMs. MotoTorch works perfectly fine with the Google released version of 2.2. I feel that once Google releases the source code for 2.2 and these ROMs get updates to work with that code, I feel there won't be an issue anymore. So it's more of trying to support you guys until the source code is released.

I installed the app under N1 yesterday and it worked fine if I'm not moving it around.

BUT, when I changed the phone's direction, it came up "Force close" (i.e. rotate 90 degree)

Just and FYI

I'm running BB.1 froyo, pulled the mototorch APK from Fabs NexBeast for BB1.1 (just cause I like the themed icon over stock) and installed, haven't had the firsit problem at all!!

Is that the old version of MotoTorch or the new version?

that will be fixed soon. I suck at testing.

I'm running an unthemed 2.2 and I installed the updated version through Market (v3.2 according to TiBu), but the LEDs would not come on. I can hear the camera lens activating though.

I only updated it to see if the brighter LED of 2.2 was implemented. The old version (2.8?) has been working fine for me on any ROM I have ever used, even 2.2. I see no need for me to update.

I believe its an old version. I downloaded Fab's NextBeast here http://androidforums.com/all-things...ed-rom-nexbeast-v1-1-updated-5-27-2010-a.html

Pulled the MotoTorch APK from it and simply installed on my BB.1 Froyo. Works like a champ.
