3. Now download and install the app.
4. Afterwards open the app up after it's installed.
5. Now click on "Other Lights"
6. Select "Flashlight" and then click "On" to turn the flashlight on or click "Off" to turn the flashlight off.

Hey it works. Just annoying to use but not as bad as the camera trick.

Maybe some dev can rip it down and build a working on/off app

 

[StarScream2109]

You can set a widget to turn the flashlight on/off

Also blackbolt22 is working on a flashlight app specifically for the warp

 

[johnvansavage]

this has been proven not to work for some warp users

 

[StarScream2109]

Some custom ROMs break the root dim method

 

[johnvansavage]

anyone know what roms this works on? i've tried it on wcs, patchwork, and now on shinjitsu, and light just comes on and then turns off like a second later

 

[prettiboiisyko]

I'm using noob right now and this works on noob

Its ok, I can live with it. besides, I just spent the last three days getting my phone set up the way it is now!!

 

[johnvansavage]

ok so i just wiped all, dalvik, cache, data, all, and flashed noob v, and rootdim still did as before, turned on the l.e.d. for one second then turned off, im not getting this v_v

 

[mercury0x000d]

I can confirm it works on Warp OEM

Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

The rootdim will not download to this phone, message says not compatable.

This works great on icon rom. If you have a launcher with an activities menu (like adw) you can have a one click flashlight. Just Longpress in your desktop, select activities, select rootdim, select flashlight and Viola you have a one click flashlight. Click on click off. Two clicks lol

 

[jdremler]

the flashlight option also works if you use root toolbox. I have been using it for quite some time. be careful with this app. as I'm sure you can really mess your phone up with it by using the other options.

works on wp7 4.1

Works on ctmod
