Help Working Led flashlight app?

Is there anyone try this:HTCtorch.apk ?

Torch is not supported by this phone.

I have tried about 20 apps, none work. I have sent emails out to the developers of "LED" flashlight apps to get support for the ZTE warp.

I have received only one reply:

Hello,

thanks for your message !

I have already been informed of this issue and am currently actively looking for a solution. I will publish an update with a fix as soon as possible.

Thanks for your patience :)

Best Regards,
Santiago

After some back and forth, this is what I received:

Dear Daniel,
Thanks for your kindly attention to ZTE Warp.
The current software version of your Warp can't support this function. But our R&D team have accept your great suggestion, and will communicate with XDA-DEVELOPERS about the detailed method after.
Your suggestions and questions will be appreciated.
Regards,
ZTE After-sales support team

So hopefully soon we will have working LED functionality!

I am sure you were being rhetorical but......two babies and a wife that go to bed early. The upstairs of the house where all the rooms are is pitch black dark at night. With a flashlight app I can see to go to bed without disturbing my family. Without the app many stubbed toes and explicatives which wake my wife and kids and teach my kids words I don't want them to say. :) The flash app makes it very easy to see; the screen light app not so much.

I completely understand the purpose of the application and its importance. I was not trying to come off as being ignorant by any means. I guess that is just my opinion because I leave my phone turned off and downstairs at my house while I am sleeping. I have several night lights in my house. I work midnights so I have owl like vision as it is so I can maneuver through my house without any need of a light. If anything my wife would be pissed if I came into our room with a light on lol.

Save your battery life and get one of those small, hand-held lights from the store. They cost around a couple bucks. It's a lot cheaper than stumbling around the house at night, only to stub your toe and drop/throw your phone.

Kamau and Knoxville both very good points......I have purchased many flashlights and a little serious and joking at the same time I have two young boys and the flashlights do not make it very long. They either break or burn out by the time I come home from work. Not to mention that ever since I had children I have the memory of a calculator made in the 1970's(that is to say I don't have one). The only thing that I can seem to remember is my phone (yes and I am to lazy to try to find a working flashlight at night). And thanks to the Warp using the same mini usb charger as my last three phones; I have chargers all over the house and at work so battery life is not a problem. So all this is said with a degree of "tongue in cheek" but I would like the flashlight app for my admittedly lazy self!

All ya and another thing, the phone is able to have an app turn the light on so therfore i like that also. if I just wanted a phone that called people and saved on the battery i would have bought a junky phone just to make calls and save my power, but the warp is made to do alot of things so i want it to do everything it can, its my cool little computer in my hand and all ya i can also make a phone call with it too. but i think id rather just play around with the cool buttons and waste my battery all day.
