    Not 100% sure about this, but try "Shake FlashLight".

    I had looked around for similar LEDs apps before but submitted to the fact that almost all just set brightness of a white screen to 100%.

    You could always just record a video - on mine when it's dark the LED light is on permanently during recording...

    Lamppu (LED Torch) works on rooted phones.

    No, not for un-rooted phones.

    And, from what I understand, there won't be for a while, seeing as how the OS doesn't allow it.

    HTC Wildfire has this built in...just means that rooting is not required and the OS does support it

    Not really, just that htc made it available on a lower level for their built-in app.widget/whatever.

    I know I'm a bit late contributing here... but there is no way to do this without rooting except getting Androot which is a one click root app, really simple and takes a few seconds but it doesn't root fully. then get any torch app you like and it should work :)
