New plugin released: Flashlight feature

Hi all, Thanks to Susans help, my fifth plugin, the Flashlight feature plugin I made has been released. It's a VERY simple plugin that uses your iPhone as a flashlight. http://www.buzztouch.com/plugins/plugin.php?pid=59750D6F46845B90AC62B64 Should be free, and I'm working on other goodies too. Also if you guys missed it, the first BT self hosted theme was released (for self hosted users only), and you can get that here: https://www.buzztouchmods.com/downloads.php?cat_id=4&download_id=47 Cheers all, David https://buzztouchmods.com

Making the hardware of the phone react with the software is a huge feat and an achievement in it's own right. The fact that it's free is a bonus. I really should be a paid plugin. One question, what would happen if you used this on, let's say, the iPhone 3GS? Would it just show a very bright white screen?

I think the 3gs doesn't have led flash right? If so, nothing would happen, no white screen, but good idea for a future update. Thanks for the compliment, but it was only a few lines of code. Cheers mate, David https://buzztouchmods.com

Yeah. The 2G, 3G, 3GS iPhones, iPads, and all but the current iPod Touch, don't have the LED light on the rear. Maybe a good idea for a future update would be to make the devices without a light to enable a blank white screen with full brightness.

Thanks @MrDavid for the great work you continue to produce for BT. I am definitely looking forward to downloading your self hosted theme once the new server has hit, just to make sure everything is compatible.

@everyone No problem guys, there's not enough I could do for you all to make up for the opportunities and friendship you guys have given me. You guys are awesome! @Danny looking forward to seeing your stuff come out soon too friend! Thanks for the kind words as always. :-) I've listed the white screen option as a update and will get to it as soon as I find more time, thanks a lot for the suggestions, really cool idea I didn't think about. Sneak Peak: I'm working on a modified buttons menu plugin that has "pages (like iphone home-screen buttons)" and has "preferences" to turn on and off buttons, super excited! Cheers all, David https://buzztouchmods.com

@SuVinay look in Warren Evan's past videos on his YouTube channel on how to use JSON to connect with the Control Panel. Oct or Nov of 2012 is the timeframe of the Webinar. But first, a big applause for doing a flashlight on Android! A big achievement you have by learning on your own. Keep on trying, you will learn amazing things just by watching the Webinars. -- Niraj
