new feature request.

Using the Gsensor let it keep the led on as long as the device senses motion, put it down and it turns the led of in 10 seconds.

Doable?

Thanks

Jules
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] billu:
Now thats an excellent suggestion.

Are we 100% sure that leaving the LED on for prolonged periods at the low level is not going to have any adverse effect on it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] PauloJ5:
Any chance of a version for the LG KS20 ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I'm not familiar with that. I'm not a cook. I have seen it included in roms like Elite though, maybe they have an OEM package? Another way would be to put it in customization when the ROM boots for the first time, if that's possible? In that case you could just use the cab as provided.

Update: I noticed an OEM Packages Repository thread on the forum, which links to a RaphaelOEMPackages wiki page, which in turn links to a 4shared drive. There I found a TorchButton 1.4 package. Not sure who put it there, but thanks to the one that did. :)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ufriendxda:
My HP614C has a different camera dll, that's camera_mainstoneii.dll, so this great tool dosn't surpport HP614C.

Could you please make a version for HP614C?

Thank you!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Sorry. This tool uses an HTC-specific API (HTCCamera1.dll) and will only work when this dll is available on your device.

I'm willing to take a very quick look on the dll if you send it to me in PM. No guarantees though, as I don't have the device and don't want to spend too much time on it. :)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
this might be a dumb question but does this work for the alltel phone?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
The Alltel Touch Pro has a good chance of working. It should work on every Raphael/Diamond. Just try it. It'll give an error if you're missing the API it uses.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NLS:
Touch Pro yes, Diamond no. Except if something supernatural happens.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Oops. lol, my bad. Clearly wasn't thinking when I said that. :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] kransky.dan:
hi guys,

Just installed the app and its great! But is there any way i can add the app on the scroll menu on the home page?

Currently only got call history and calendar and I wanna add the program below the calendar.

Any help altering this menu would be appreciated!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NLS:
This is a question unrelated to TorchButton. There are plenty of places where you could ask instead.

Anyway, the Start Menu is a folder in your Windows folder. Whatever you put there (up to a limit) shows in the start menu. Also there in Programs folder you can/should put all your programs (maybe even organize in folders).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] creationpoint:
Very handy and useful sofware. Excellent work. Thanks a lot
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] leary:
it also works on the titan with a minor registry tweak for the bright. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
That's nice to hear. Would you mind sharing the minor registry tweak so that other users can benefit too?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] leary:
You should know... you are the one that suggested it to me :P

HKLM\Software\TorchButton\brightResetTimeInMs default is 750. on titan, it needs to be 100 or you get the blinks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Ohh, I didn't know (or forgot) that was regarding the Alltel device. ;) I believe that reg setting was only available in the build I sent you in PM. I totally forgot about that. I guess I should release a 1.5 for it :)

[edit]For the Alltel users, you can pick up this torchbutton.exe. Then you can change the brightResetTimeInMs setting as described above by leary.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] leary:
lol. would make things easier with a 1.5. right now i am still copying the exe you sent me over every time i flash.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] leary:
Please note that this is a fix for the titan (HTC6800). I don't think it applies to any other device.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] whatsucka:
does this work with Xperia?? will it hurt the LED like da hTorch??
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
hTorch is based on this application. In fact, it uses the C# library attached to the first post. If hTorch works, this will work too. It should not "hurt" the LED unless you use the bright setting too much. Still, I give no guarantees. :) So far there has been one report (to my knowledge) of a burned out LED.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] whatsucka:
kool n i was afraid it will harm da LED... as far as i noe i got torch function in my W800 n W960 n it seems doesnt hurt much... n i have those function in da fone more dan a year... i mizz da dual LED from those fones....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NLS:
is there a reason you write like that?

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] The Avatar:
Lately I have been using TourchButton in combination with G-Trigger, I'm really please with how well it works.

Tge G-Trigger program runs in the background all the time, so now I just shake my phone a bit and I get light, shake it again and the TorchButton program runs again (thus turning it off).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] pyraxiate:
Mappable Shortcut to on?

Im curious how possible it would be for this app to have a shortcut that could be assigned to the PTT button of the ATT Fuze?

Being able to push and hold the PTT button to get a flashlight as long as the button is depressed would be so nice :D

Just a thought :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
maybe find an app that changes what the hard buttons do? and have one of them when you hold it to start torchbutton? i so love this app for a flashlight i am the one who always has a flashlight now
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I didn't add a PTT feature as my Raphael does not have the PTT button. I didn't even know there were Raphael devices that do have a PTT button. :) I'll look into it shortly. Shouldn't be such a problem. I used to have PTT feature on my flashlight app for the HTC Hermes. Just hope I didn't throw away that piece of code... ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I've just released v1.5 of TorchButton. It adds PTT mode and the registry setting for the Alltel device to fix bright mode, which Alltel users must manually set to '100'.

I don't have a device with PTT button, so it would be appreciated if anyone could test it and let me know. Thanks. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
just wondering what the "set to 100" is all about because i had the htc touch pro from alltel and never had to change anything. and will try out the PTT on alltel as soon as i get my phone back
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
There is a problem with the 'bright' mode on the Alltel. If you don't experience the problem, it might be because you have a custom rom in which the HTCCamera1.dll is updated to what we all have.

The original problem was reported by leary. You can read it starting here. In short, the bright mode worked, but flashed instead of giving a constant bright light. It was fixed by changing that setting from 750 to 100.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
Werid i never had this problem and i have the stock alltel rom. did you have to have the bright on for a certin time for it to flash? I have the Touch pro maybe thats why it worked on mine as he has the titan?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I'm not sure about the details. I just concluded that issue with his phone was generic to all Alltel's. If it's not, no sweat. If you don't have the issue, that's great. Then you don't have to do anything.

Anyone that is having the issue, can use that tweak.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Feldhege:
Does this version work with the Omnia too? I found one called TouchButtonOmnia which seems like the same thing but it only does the "Touch On" "Touch Off" mode. I would like some of the other modes too but don't want to screw up the one that is working.

edit----

SO I went and installed it on my omnia. The Tourch, Blink, and SOS mode work fine. The BRIGHT mode does not do anything. I tried it first by just pressing it and nothing happend. Then I thought I could at least test it so I turned on the led using the Tourch button it turns on and then when I press Bright it turns off so I know the button is doing something. Anything else I could try? The LED is pretty bright on it's own so it is not a big deal.

The PTT of course does not work but that I expected as I don't have a PTT button on the Omnia.

Robb
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Thanks for letting us know. There were already some reports that it worked on the Omnia. As long as it has the HTCCamera1.dll, it has a possibility to work.

It could be that the API on your device is a little different from the Raphael. Maybe it implements the 'bright' feature a bit differently. The bright mode uses the same exported function as the normal mode, just using different arguments.

I don't think there's anything you can do unless you're a hacker. You could download the source and try different values. Preferably disassemble the .dll and check if it's possible at all. :-)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] N008650:
Superb! Thanks your effort!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] leary:
I'm pretty sure it's just the archaic hardware on the titan. :P i hardly ever have to use bright mode, but it's nice to have it work.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fatpandas:
PTT

has anyone had any luck with the PTT? i'm on the fuze and it'd be nice to have that button actually be useful. if anyone has figured out the tweaks to get that to work, please share. thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
The new version I posted has a PTT executable. If you have a Fuze you should be able to install TorchButton, go to Start -> Settings -> Buttons, and select the PTT (Hold) button and assign the program TorchButton PTT to it. After that, just hold your PTT button and while you hold it, the light should be on.

No other "tweaks" should be needed.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fatpandas:
I'm using the stock rom for now and I don't have an PTT option under the Buttons tab. I'm pretty sure i can just stick it in through the registry for now, but if someones knows how I'd be able to get the option under Buttons, that'd be great.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
fatpandas: What do you have under the buttons tab? I have hTorch 3.2 and i just added it to the button setting and it works. Just look for hTorch. I mean you have to hold the button for 3 seconds to get the app to run but its the same concept correct?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fatpandas:
under stock ROM, only button1 shows up under the Settings>buttons tab. not the PTT button. sure, i could set it to the button1, but i figured it'd be nice to have the PTT button do something useful.

I found the method using the short_PTT.lnk and long_PTT.lnk but that doesn't seem to work nicely with the torch. i created a shortcut to torchPTT and renamed it to long_PTT.lnk but it doesn't do anything. if i move the entire torchPTT.exe to the windows folder too, it will pop up with an error. not really sure what's going on.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
If you copy the TorchButton_PTT.exe you also have to make a copy of the TorchButton.exe. That's because all logic is in TorchButton.exe, and TorchButton_PTT.exe is just a wrapper to call TorchButton.exe with a /ptt switch. The PTT.exe will search for TorchButton.exe in the same directory.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fatpandas:
oh HO! figured it out. due to whatever makes long_PTT.lnk work in itself, we don't need the ptt.exe wrapper for this case. so, no need to copy any of the .exe's into the windows folder. just create a shortcut of Torchbutton.exe (not the PTT.exe) to the windows folder. rename it to long_PTT.lnk

and it'll work. hold to turn on. hold again to turn off.

thanks guys. my PTT button lives!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] pyraxiate:
PTT still isnt working here. Im using the newest NRG ROM ( Energy 3.0 ).

Its no biggie though because I can program the Bright On executable to PTT and it will last for 60 seconds. Close enough to what i needed. Thanks much !!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Can you try assigning the TorchButton PTT to the normal PTT button? Instead of PTT Hold. Then try to hold the PTT button anyway.

It works like when it starts up, it finds out what virtual keys are pressed and the light it turned on. When it finds one that's pressed, it monitors it until it is released. After that it turns off the light.

If it still doesn't work then maybe the PTT button is not registered as a regular 'virtual key' in winmo.

Btw you can change the 60 seconds in the registry. Check the readme for register keys.

Help for HP iPAQ 61x

Hi! NetRipper,

I've sent you PM for asking help with your LED tool using HP iPAQ 61x. Could you try to modify your TorchButton for iPAQ 61x when you have time?

Thank you very much!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I had already taken a look at it when you sent the PM, but it's too dissimilar from HTC's camera dll for me to work on it. Besides I don't have the devices, so I can't experiment on it.

Sorry I forgot to respond on your PM. I'm afraid I can't help you with it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Galvatron:
Thank you, Net ripper.

This is very useful apps, and especially like all features you have added to LED lighting.

:)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] cunn8780:
Yes, thank you for this great program. I use it way more often than I ever thought I would!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Solidus_k:
Great app just one question can I use the "bright mode" for prolonged time?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Quote from the first post:

I suppose that answers it :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Solidus_k:
Thanks I just thought because of the prolonged life of "led lights" I could use it for long time, but I think Im not going to risk my phone.

Thanks again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Well the specific reason would be that the normal LED mode was designed to be able to burn for longer periods of time (i.e. you can enable the flashlight in the camera application and leave it on for quite a while). However, the "bright" LED mode is not designed to be on very long, as it's only used for the "flash" when taking a picture.

When it's not designed to be on that long at that brightness, I assume the heat dissipation (despite a LED not generating much heat) is not specifically taken into account, so it's not designed for prolonged use. In other words, it'll shorten the lifespan of the LED more than it's designed to.

That's why the especially the bright feature is 'at your own risk' (although, obviously, the whole app is.. I don't want to deal with any claims :D).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mrwangkai:
Hello NetRipper,

I'm a moderator over at CareAce.net where we talked about using TorchButton for Spb Mobile Shell 3 on the Samsung Omnia. We do have a user who left this comment. Do you mind getting back to us with some idea what might be causing the issue? And here is the post. Thanks!

"This doesn’t work on the Omnia, get an error “error loading HTCCaerera1.dll”"
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
TorchButton only works on devices that use the HTCCamera1.dll, which is used by the HTC camera application. I'm not sure if it's provided on the Omnia by default.

However, a quick google shows that someone created a 'middleware' HTCCamera1.dll in this thread over at modaco to allow TorchButton to work on the Omnia.

I've attached the HTCCamera1.dll which I took from the package on that site. Placing it in the TorchButton installation directory might do the trick. The wrapper was based on TorchButton v1.1, so not sure if it still works with v1.5. Although I can't remember any API changes.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Slamking18:
Hey, great program!! I just upgraded to this version for the PTT feature. I have a Fuze, but can't figure out what to do to get this to work. Before this version, I just assigned the Torch exe to to PTT button, but now with this new feature I would like to have the PTT button do something else by clicking it and holding it would turn the LED on. Thanks in advance

Thanks and a little request

Hey man, thanks for this AWSOME pice of software. I have a little request if thats possible.

Add options in the regfile to choose if the Blink/strobo light should be normal or strong light. And if the Strong light is choosen, then it auto off after 2 minutes or so? or like a timeout in the regfile so if it is set to 0 it stops when you stop it, and if its higher, it auto time out?

What do you think?

Is there anyway to make this work for Omnia II i8000;

There is a cab with the name TorchbuttonOmnia, that works on Omnia i900, but not on Omnia II i8000. This is the new Omnia.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
It was one of my original intentions, but I found it not really worth the work. I might do that when I have more time. Possibly I won't work on this until I get my new phone. I'm kinda waiting for the HTC Leo. I'll want to use its LED as well.

If the Omnia II has a LED as a flashlight, then it probably could be made to work. However someone will need to investigate the driver the omnia uses for the camera. The wrapper that someone made (one page back) made it work on the normal Omnia I. I could imagine the API didn't change that much. In my post about that wrapper I linked to an external forum, where the source to that wrapper can be found. Someone with some hacking skills could try adjusting that.

I'm not good enough at reverse engineering to get it to work without having the Omnia II myself.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] skrceny:
start LED and turn off display and buttons

Mostly i need light to find a keyhole or the right key asap. I don't care for eyecandy processor eating and long loading interfaces. All the apps like hTorch are fine, but I spent more time playing with my phone to make light, than I would spend with finding the keyhole in dark. I started to use TorchButton, but still faced the problem with dazzling unlocked display. Pressing power button turns off not only the screen but also the LED...

So i made myself a mortscript shortcut and assigned it to the right soft key. It just starts torchbutton normal light and turns the display off with one hit. Now I am satisfied. After pressing power button and softkey, I have a quick source of light in my hand. I can hold it anywhere and don't have to care for turning it off. The display and buttons are already off, the LED will stop in time set in registry and the phone will turn in sleep mode in time set in power management. (Pressing power button turns the display on again.) KISS principle.

Following NetRipper's philanthropy I am releasing it for other noobs like me to save time making it on your own. (It took me 3 hours to study the mortscript documentation and to find 5 marvelous bugs in this stupid 2 rows of code.) You need to have mortscript installed for using it. (Some ROM's like Energy ROM already have it installed.) Enjoy.

i'm confused

i'm new to this touch thing. But i finally downloaded if but it is not doing anything...help i have touch pro 2 with verizon
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Sorry, TorchButton only supports the Touch Pro (1). The Touch Pro 2 doesn't have a flashlight.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] missnunu:
oh thanks. so there's no app at all for the pro 2 as far as flashlight is concerned or is it that this does not work for the pro 2
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
When you turn around your Touch Pro 2, you will see that there is no LED (flashlight) that allows you to take pictures in the dark. This is the reason this application _can not_ support your phone.

You have an alternative though. There are applications that simply make your LCD screen white, and increase brightness to maximum.. to emulate a kind of flashlight as well. Check it out here.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] brian.:
I installed the cab file and it works great, but what are the other 2 for?

TorchButtonLib_csharp_v1.0.zip and TorchButton_v1.5_src.zip

also, is there a way to get the PTT to work on my touch pro unlocked version?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
The "csharp" zip is for developers. I made a C# library which developers can use to control the LED in their own applications. It's used by hTorch for example.

The "src" is the sourcecode of the app. Also for developers that are interested.

The PTT version is used in conjunction with hardware buttons. So you need to set TorchButton PTT as application for one of your buttons in Start -> Settings -> (not sure where in settings) -> Buttons. This doesn't always work though. Just try if one of the buttons will work. This was more or less made for the AT&T version, as that device has a dedicated PTT button.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Revaric:
I ended up mapping Bright to PPT HOLD, and Regular to PPT; PPT app didn't work...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Hmm.. that's unfortunate. Do you have the AT&T touch pro? I was hoping the PTT would register as a keyboard strike, but I suppose it doesn't, which is why it doesn't work.
