Help Working flashlight APP (camera LED) in progress!!

Times are tough bro. I wish I could help but I'm feeding and housing 4 on one 12 dollar salary right now. You have done an incredible job on this app and it has been very helpful with me being an electrician, as I always work in the dark.
The service thing is quite an issue and the battery drain because of that along with the screen time out, but aside from that you have done an excellent job on this WARP FLASHLIGHT. I want to commend and thank you for this.
I apologize for my hiatus as I have been trying to sort out legal issues and family issues, but I have used this.. The second beta and it has been flawless. :)

Kind words and I know how you feel. In the next version I'm going to try and cut down on the size and battery drain. I also need to find a workaround for the screen time out. Right now it is in place for a reason. As for requiring internet, I'm going to probably give you X uses or X amount of days, before authorization is required. I need it for now to control who uses the app. I don't want it going out in the state it's in to everyone.

Are you a current beta tester? If you are not then you do not have authorization to this app and it will not work until the official release to the public. Sorry about the inconvenience but this is to ensure no one steals his work AND so he can privately test the app to make sure it will not harm our phones. Again I'm sorry about the inconvenience.

Will this app cost when it gets on the market

Well seeing how I am broke and living with a friend... I'd love to charge like 99 cents per download but the person that I am (someone who always does things for free for people) conflicts with that idea.

I'm thinking the base version of this will be free and then if you want some frills or to donate it can be optional. Only I can't receive donations through the app itself while it is on the market however someone could go to my website and press donate. In fact someone already has and now I have enough money to put the app on the market place!

For a possible frill: I have a new idea to make it flash the led if a phone call is incoming, and possibly on something else. Would that even be cool or useful though? One thing for sure is that someone who has root access could definetely have that option along with an adjustable strobe light option. Unfortunately a non-rooted phone would be a bright but slow pulsing flash. I'm open to suggestions!!

I will be looking for some feedback from all of the testers of this soon guys. Test it and report back please. Thanks! :)

Open beta for a day (or more) will be coming very soon, like maybe today! Can I get some replies here today to see if this would be something worth doing? If I get like 10 replies here today from non-testers, I will release a username for everyone to use till it goes back to closed beta.
