I went from the ns4g to sgs2, I loved the specs of sgs2 super smooth, but the trolling causing slow development is enough to send me back to the nexus line. I ordered my GN today. Plus I can't live without stock Android I dislike sense/blur/touchwiz/ and whatever LG has.

Oh no, don't! I have both phones and the SGSII wins hands down. The SGSII is still faster and has a brighter and more pleasant screen (surprisingly).

Besides ICS the GN is a step down from SGSII.

GN: inferior external speaker, screen is a tiny bit washed out, shorter battery life, and its' slower.

Returning the GN. Not saying it's a bad phone, it's actually a great phone but the inferior external speaker and poor battery life make it an absolute deal breaker for me. And I'm speaking of the international GN, not the Verizon version.

What about those of us who have played with it and still shun it lol.

Goggles mistake was making the first nexus hardware so ahead of is time. Now everyone has expected the last two nexus to be the same way. I think that was more of a one time thing than a mold for how the nexus line was gonna be.

I wouldn't call that a mistake. The N1 had it's problems too. My power button failed 9 months ago. htc wants $55+ to fix it. eff that! In addition. It's specs were all of about 15 min ahead of their time. The incredible came out a few weeks later and had better specs. Just like with the SGSII, it wasn't a superior phone.

I'd hold my N1 up to any number of phones. I still use it and marvel at how incredible it is. It's dev suport is still great and will be for another 12-18 months, just like the real original Nexus....The G1.

congrats on your new toy bro. I switched from the gsII to the Nexus also and I never looked back. The screen is amazing and has no problems, that whole crap about pentile is stupid, the resolution makes up for it. Beat screen on the market. Development is far better than the gsII, there's not even a little taste of ICS for the gsII. The camera is perfect for a phone quick and clear. If you want amazing pictures buy yourself a real camera. I say whoever doesn't have the Nexus is cuz they don't have the cash for it, but if they do and still don't have the Nexus....well I don't know what the heck is wrong with you haha. The Nexus if hands down the best phone I've ever owned and I'm sticking to only Nexus phone from now on. Haters gonna hate...
[Off-topic] HRodMusic:
Could not have said it better!
[Off-topic] Jjday7:
You know what's really weird? A lot of people are saying they are only sticking to Nexus phones. The Nexus S got ICS for a select few due to google stopping the udpate due to bugs. So the people with the Nexus S 4g, some t-mobile nexus phones, and the at&t Nexus S are left to wait. If this is how google handles updates then where is the advantage in getting a Nexus product. I am not bashing the Galaxy Nexus but look at the past to see the future. Google has been completely silent about getting the update release or re-released in this case. If this is what's to come from google then I'll stick to the GSII.

I know this is about the Galaxy Nexus but I wanted to point that out.
[Off-topic] stacio88:
That's true, but at least there was something released for the nexus s. We don't even know when the gsII will get anything.

For the general masses this might be a problem but for us who are on xda come on the nexus line are the first to get fully functional roms before Google even releases an official, the nexus s official ics was enough to port to the ns4g nd nexus one, sgs2 is a beautiful phone its fast but when it comes to updates and support nexus beats it, I rather have development support over exaggerated specs, I'm cool with dual 1.2 or even with a single 1ghz like the nexus IMO

Count me in on the opposite side of the spectrum. With me it was the Rogers Skyrocket, I don't know how similar it is to the T-Mobile GS2. I had my fair share of play with both the Skyrocket and Galaxy Nexus. Ultimately decided on the Gnex. Firstly, aesthetically, the Gnex is just a better looking phone. Obviously this is a personal opinion and some may or may not agree with me. I feel everyone is entitled to since people essentially for the self. Secondly, xda support is almost assured to a nexus device. That is something important to me as of late and it will affect my decision in the end. Lastly, even if there were no devs, for whatever reason, there would be updates at the very least.

I will admit the expandable memory was almost a deal breaker but I figured that is what Google music is for anyhow. Not once have I regretted my choice and no one should, no matter the phone (or anything for that matter). To reply to a few earlier posts: One would like to think a person would go out and get the things they want so I wouldn't say I'm justifying my purchase. I just purchased what was the best for me.

Name: LED Flashlight

This is a discussion thread for LED Flashlight, one of my apps. I will be really grateful for your feedback.

Screenshots:

Main screen

Settings screens

Live tile customization

Official Facebook Page: here.

Description:

LED Flashlight is a simple and free flashlight app. It uses the LED light on your phone as a light source (the light used by the camera when taking photos).

Unlike some other flashlight apps that just show a white screen, LED Flashlight can give you a much brighter light.

Even if LED Flashlight is a very simple app, I took my time to polish it and make it the best in the marketplace. I included some special features, most of them not available in other flashlight apps:

Shake to toggle - you can shake the phone to toggle the flashlight

Camera button to toggle - you can use the camera shutter button to toggle the flashlight

Disable lock screen - you can disable the lock screen so that the light does not turn off by itself

Constant light - the LED light does not flicker like some other flashlight apps

Please note that this app will not work on devices with xenon flash or devices that do not have a flash at all.

User reactions.

Some people complain that this app does not work on HTC Mozart. Yes, it does not, because this phone has a xenon flash. Sorry, but there is no way to make a xenon flash light up constantly. I don't have such a phone but I think even the built-in camera app cannot do that.

Version history:

Version 1.1

[New] Flashlight toggle sound introduced.

[New] More settings added and "settings" menu improved.

[Changed] "Prevent lock screen" is now enabled by default.

[Improved] Shake sensitivity adjusted to a more appropriate level.

[Fixed] Crash on some devices when no internet connection is available.

[Fixed] Minor UI fixes.

Version 1.2

[NEW] Live tile settings introduced.

[Improved] Minor UI improvements.

Discussions.

I welcome any feature requests, bug reports or just random thoughts.

Thank you and take care.

Because this app is full of ads: AdDuplex, AdMob, MS Ads Mobile :D Actually, author added all existing advertising solutions for WP7 :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] kaka_mara:
Does it work on HTC 7 Mozart?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
As written in description, this app does not work on HTC Mozart. It is not possible to have a flashlight on this phone because it has a xenon flash, not a LED one. I doubt you will find any flashlight app for your phone.

Sorry.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
An explanation of the required permissions:

contacts - not really used but is wrongly detected by the Marketplace

camera, microphone, music and video library - those are needed by the flashlight itself, I doubt you will find a flashlight app that does not require those. This is because the constant ON mode for the LED is part of the video functionality. And video = camera + microphone + video library.

movement and directional sensor - this is needed to enable the "shake to toggle" feature. You can switch the flashlight by shaking your phone. This is done using the accelerometer sensor.

data services, phone identity, owner identity - needed for ads. Any ad-enabled app will have those.

If you have some concerns let me know. There is certainly nothing harmful in all those permissions.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
Mate, your explanation of the required permissions is totally misleading.

"Because this app is full of ads": The app has a single ad at the bottom of the screen, clearly seen in the screenshots. Yes, this ad could come either from Microsoft, from AdMob or AdDuplex. Who cares about where it comes from?

If you are a developer, which I presume, you should know how ads work. You request an ad and the ads provider either gives you one or fails. If it fails you ask the next provider to give you an ad. This is common sense. Any sensibly written ad-enabled app does it like this.

Even if only one of those ad providers was used, the same permissions would have been required.

"author added all existing advertising solutions for WP7" - you make it sound like a bad thing. Can you please explain what's wrong with that?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] sensboston:
Yep, I can try. It's definitely not good: adding more third-party code (what uses internet connection and contains a bugs) is directly affecting to your app performance and stability. Second, using a bunch of different ads providers will not increase your ad unit performance (likely to vise versa). Try to find my topic at Q&A about ads. And third: there are about hundred flashlight apps on market (with similar functionality) and your app must compete with them. Having so many required permissions for that simple app will hardly contribute to this.

BTW, it's just my personal opinion, all up to you (however I'm also not 100% sure - should re-read Microsoft and Google service agreements).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
You obviously tried the app. Have you noticed any unstable behavior or performance problems? If yes, please let me know. No one has reported anything like that. While your statement has truth in it, everything depends on the developer taking care of all exceptional situations and handling them properly.

I could argue with that, but in any way this only concerns me as a developer and not poeple who use my app. Developer feedback is always appreciated, but please don't make it sound something bad for all those who just want to light up their way. I will try to find your Q&A thread, a link would be nice.

True, many flashlight apps out there. I have written in my first post how my app differs and what is better. I just checked the two most popular flashlight apps in my marketplace, they require the same permissions, except the "movement and directional sensor". They do not need it because they do not have the "shake to toggle" feature. As I wrote this is unique for my app(well, I haven't checked them all, but still).

Thanks for your opinion.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] sensboston:
No, I didn't tried your app yet: just downloaded and looked what's inside. I'm still using my old LED flashlight written about year ago, and it uses two caps only: ID_CAP_MICROPHONE & ID_CAP_CAMERA, and has only 10 Kb size ;) It based on Dave Amenta's code (like all of that kind apps) with a little add-on. If you interested, you may try to search XDA for my or Dave's post about year ago.

As I said before, it's just my personal opinion, not a criticism or app review (if you going to publish something on the public forums, you should be prepared for the different opinions).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wsantiagow:
First of all thanks for this app! Ive used a bunch of them at really like this one.

Suggestion: Paid version would be nice for those of us who dont like ads in our apps :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
Thanks for the feedback, I am glad you like it!

Paid version is on the way. Stay tuned :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
I am planning to provide more icons for the live tile in one of the next versions. The user will be able to choose the one he likes most. The flashlight is something you often have pinned to the home screen so having a nice icon is important.

I am open to suggestions.

fredsky2, can you please explain what you mean with "mangofy"?

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] fredsky2:
ehe, i mean to make the icon fit better with WP mango: not just the background that respects the theme, but the icon looks more minimalist!

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
Version 1.2 released

The new version of LED Flashlight is now available in the marketplace! I hope you'll like it!

As promised, I've added the option to configure the live tile. Five different icons are available and you can also apply some nicely looking background effects. You can change the title of the live tile, for example you can translate it in your own language.

Here is are some examples of what you can do:

And this is how the configuration page looks like:

Let me know what you think.

Does both of LEDs working on HTC HD2?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
I haven't tested the app on this phone, as you know the HD2 is not officially a Windows Phone device.

But, the app is free, so you can easily try it. Just scan the QR code in the first post and install. Let me know if anything does not work the way you expect. I'll do my best to fix it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] voluptuary:
In some other flashlight apps that use the led there is a problem with camera data slowly building up in storage does yours have this problem?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
This is indeed something that can happen to a flashlight app in Windows Phone, since turning on the LED is actually done by starting video recording. So this is a good question, thanks.

I think I've handled this issue correctly in LED Flashlight. All generated video data files are deleted after recording stops. Also, at some interval, the app checks and deletes everything in the folder in case some file remained for some reason.

I haven't run into such problems, but I do not use the app every day. Let me know if you experience something like this.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] :
Please offer a paid version without ads. Flashlight XT manages to omit them and remains free.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ldokov:
Hi.

I thought ads will not bother anyone in a flashlight app, since the screen space is not that precious in such apps. This is why there is no paid version.

But, there was a few requests, just like yours, so I will be adding a paid version soon.

Thanks for the feedback.

So does anybody know where I can get a cool case for my GNex? The iPhone has so many awesome ones and all of the ones for the Nexus are boring. I prefer TPU cases but if the case is awesome enough, it won't matter.
