WVGA

Thank you so much for this app, it is great!

Do you think a WVGA update is in the future? It would be nice for the dark ones (like the eyes and lighter) so I don't have a bright white bar along the top and bottom of my screen.

Fun app!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TheRem:
it's really amusing, fascinating and entertaining! thanks twolf! :)

Unfortunelly flash cant change the registry on some roms... Never understood why. :(

and wich reg key do I have to change
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Youll need to remove the time limit to the screen light and set the brithness to the maximum manually on the settings.

:/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DuMnUt101:
In reference to the posts of not getting max brightness try this:

First note: my phone has the option to have it auto sensor the brightness,

So what I did was turn that off for a second...

Set both the battery and power brightness to full....

Turn the auto sensor back on..

THEN

If I change:

\HKCU\ControlPanel\BlackLight\LightDetectOn from 1 to 0

It will change the backlight to full, cause it by passes the auto censor and goes to the manual settings.

SO with that in mind, I tried plugging "LightDetectOn" into the settings portion of FlashLight.. with the value of "0"

But it didn't work.

Any advice twolf?

If I can get the FlashLite app to simply change the the LightDetectOn value to 0 when it open and change it back to 1 when it closes that it will work fine.

basilbasil, its a good idea, but flash cant connect to the mic. :(

I apologize, I missed the source code download link on the first page.

Based on the .fla file extension: I'm guessing this was written in Flash?

What editor are you using if I may ask?

Hi twolf!

I'm using your application since one year, it is really greate!

Earlier I had a Touch Cruise (Polaris). I used it with flash player 7 without any problems. Now I have a new Touch HD. I reed the earlier post about WVGA, but I think the functionality is good for me without wvga.

Now if I install the flashplayer 7, your app works greate, but Opera Mobile freezes if I try to open a site with flash. (Microsoft thing: Would you like send the error report...) I have a stocked rom with Opera version 9.5.16070

If I installing the flashlite 3.1 opera works greate but your app don't.

Can u help me, whats wrong? Wich version of flashplayer should I trying?

Or I must installing a newer Opera?

By Polaris under the two years I have many version of Opera Mobile without any error.

Thx in advance:

B.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I dont use flash lite at all, its more buggy than usefull, so I simple disbale the flash plugin on opera. :(

Sorry its not a patch or workaround, I just dont know how to fix this issue.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blackdog7:
Thanx your answer!

I think I found the solution. I upgraded my Opera, then installed the flashplayer and now the Opera and your nice app are functioning without any bug! ;-)

Happy new year!!!

Hi

really funny app.

Is there a possibility to change the screen ratio?

I have a HTC HD2 (480 x 800 WVGA) and it gives me two white bars at top and bottom of the screen.

I hope so, seems to be really nice app, but WVGA ratio could be definitely added :-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Greywolf_Ghost:
twolf

I don't think this was asked(only read in 17 pages).....I have a Typhoon (non touch screen), is there any way to get softkeys or numberpad to get to the toys?

I got Flash 7 on SD and working and your flashlight works on the typhoon, but with no touch, I can't change to all the toys.

I have found pressing center of d-pad will get the app to close, the screen shows a grey circle with x and then closes.

Was this addressed already? if yes which post?

If no...any hope for me?

By the way if not, the flashlight alone works a treat!!!!!!!!!!! Thankyou!!!

Hello.

First, I want to apologize for the language of this message, but I do not speak English. This message is written in Spanish and then translated into English using Google.

I want to do a query. I have downloaded the two links that are on the first post. The first link is a .exe file that runs on the PDA. But why I use the second file?: Sourcecode.zip Inside of this file, a file called luz_v11.fla. What should I do with this file?

Thank you.

Hi, so did you find a way to fix this problem in v7 beta?

I'm also using a Touch 3G, and have exactly the same problem :(

It's a shame cos this is a really nice app
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I don't see any change when i click on any number:(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Thats really strange...

Do you see any screen light change when you change the registry values manually in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\Brightness ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
when i apply manually and s/r : yes

maybe the test needs s/r ?

Yes after s/r the value changes (max = 4)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I ment when you apply it thru the registry, like this:

What is s/r?

:/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
s/r = soft reset

as i said your test is like manually changing value, it needs s/r to be implemented

thought? i have a feeling the prob is that your device has values from 1 to 10 and mine 1 to 4
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Thats... not normal, you must use some other regkey value or your screen settings would only apply after a soft reset. :(

You can see a immediate light difference when you slide on:

Start > Settings > System > Backlight

...right?

If so, those values must be stored elsewhere.

If not, you registry has some kind of problem... :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Hands up

I've been doing some search on the registry ( by the way he was really hurt when you said he has some kind of problem... ) but couldn't find some other key.

Nevertheless your app is still GREAT and thank you for your efforts and your time

Keep going:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Thanks and sorry... :(

If you find out what registry key works for you let me know, so I can make a different version.

I love this little flash app. Only one issue: I'm running Flash Lite 3.1 because of how well it works with Opera. Everything on FlashLIGHT seems to work except the exit button. I have to hit the end key to get back to my main screen and then kill the app using the "X" button in Windows.

Any suggestions?

Thanks Again!

Really? Thats news to me! :D

With flash lite 2.1 the exe wont even open, only shows a "no flash 7" error.

Too bad flash lite 3.0 wont work on my Nike...

I'll have to see what other commands can I use to close the application, if the default doesnt work...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Try this test:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3032780&postcount=20

The problem is that I think your registry values used are not HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\

I mean, that exists too, but its only used as a backup after softreset.

You must be using some other unknown regkey.

:(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sathya:
Tried out but nothing is happening when i click on the numbers..none of them...I have installed wk task..It has its own backlight settings..that backlight settings is working for me and i have also attached my registry settings earlier...I even exit that wktask application but dosent work..

For some reason your registry doesnt really read the default values, it most have its own different string... He only reads the default values on reset...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I'm thinking about adding some more extras to the lighter area, just to fool around...

;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] churka:
Yeah, I was gonna request more features for the lighter.

You can use the Iphone app 'Zippo Lighter'. Just do a quick youtube search and you'll see the features it has.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I did saw a few of those previews on youtube, but most use oscillator/accelerometer, that most "older" phones dont have, plus I couldnt test it or even know the regkeys.

:/

I liked the idea to turn it on/off and play with the flame, though...

http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=lU2VQj6hAsU

I'm just not sure how a 200/400mhz cpu would deal with a dinamic flame.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] churka:
Yeah, my mogul doesn't have an accelorometer. I say you should leave that feature out.

But you should put in the turn on/off feature. I think it would turn out fine. But I have no experience in coding flash so I don't know what you would have to do.

Idea about the Morse Code feature

The program plays out nicely on my Elfin. Thank you TWolf!

Got an idea for the Morse code feature. I think you can make it display a custom morse code. Say, users type in the sentences press enter, then the program start flashing the code out. It will make a nice thing to play with and a good usability too. Who knows when'll you need to use a morse code!!!:p

Just throwing around some ideas if you have free time to spare. The proggie (and also your other works) rocks already!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I was actually going to do that first, but it seemed like a lot of work for something that problably no one would use...

:/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
New version:

Interactive lighter (open/close on click) with sound

SOS interactivity works now (just need to drag the finger across the screen to make it white)

better exit (for flash lite 3, not tested)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] S.V.I:
HAHAHA You are a genius!

I love this idea! going to install flash and your flashlite immediately:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gangstaunitg:
I dont know, but my htc p3300 cand handle this great app very well. It's start flickering terribly. U know it's like having Vertical sync off in games. Dont know if it is the screen latency related or slow CPU . Someone with artemis having the same problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] PeterCiulla:
Tested on Flashlite 3.1. The program works well, but still does not exit.

Thank you very much for this, by the way!

-Pete
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Sorry, but there are only 2 commands for close and I'm using them all... When flash lite 3 comes out for my device I can try a couple of workarounds, in the meantime I can create a "close app" fix for you.

Do you use ZAPIT (freeware)?

http://rapidshare.de/files/38633539/ZaptIt_12.zip.html

I can make the close button call it too.

Sorry, never saw that before, is it 200mhz?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] churka:
Great work on the on/off feature on the lighter.

It works smooth on my Sprint Mogul.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jakub_w:
hahah dude this is awesome, ive wanted this stupid lighter app for jokes. works perfectly.

can you make a lightsaber that makes the noise when u touch the screen? since most of us dont have accelerometers :P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
That seems like a good additon, as its also based on light (light saber).. :)

Ill wip out something next week, as I wont be home for a while...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
New version 5:

Fixed a exit sound bug

Added a "show taskbar" on exit, for those ppl having problems exiting the app.

Added android boot animation

Added star light animation (heavy on CPU).

Added LightSaber with sounds. Press top, middle or bottom of the screen for diferent effects, or use your keypad. ;)

Was going to add a christmas music to the star light area, but it sounded corny.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] onesolo:
Boas twolf,

Epah a tua app é espetacular!!!

Vou-te deixar aqui umas sugestoes

Tenho um Touch HD e não ha maneira facil de sair do programa, a nao ser se carregar na tecla pra traz ou na do home.. Será que tou a perceber mal alguma coisa?? Então se carrego no icon da cruz ai é que n consigo fazer nada, nem voltar pros outros icons nem nada...

Na parte da flashlight, quando se alterna para as outras cores, o ecran n fica totalmente preenchido com a outra cor, fica com duas barras no topo e em baixo ambas a branco. Se pudesses por totalmente o ecran da mesma cor seria excelente. Pelo menos no meu touch hd fica assim...

Ah, ja agora, excelente seria passado alguns segundos, o icon da flashlight desaparecer...

Podes fazer estas alterações??!?! Please....

----------

Hello twolf,

This app of yours is awsome!!!

I'm going to leave some sugestions...

I've got an Touch HD and there's no easy way to left out the app, specialy if I enter on the big cross... Unless I use the back or the home button I can't exit the program

On the flashlight secction, when alternates between the colors, on my device I get the bottom and upper part with a big white strip. I think that it would be better to get the screen with the same colour, like a real flashlight. And even better the flashlight icon could be hidden after a few seconds.

Can you make this changes??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alsebalsam:
Awesome twolf, wonderful application!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Hi, thanks. :)

This must be a Flash lite 3 bug, I still dont know how to fix this... :(

The program I use to create the EXE is not compatibile with Flash lite 3.

You can use the ENTER key (middle of the keypad) to make it show the taskbar and so show you the real X close button.

Or use ZAPIT (freeware) to close any application on-the-fly:

http://rapidshare.de/files/38633539/ZaptIt_12.zip.html

Those white bars I think I can fix, let me try to see if it works.

Now, if the icons disappear after a couple of seconds you problably wont know where to touch... :( I can make them more transparent... Will that help?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Try this one...

Small bugfixes:

Bigger area (for non-qva/vga screens).

Extra flash lite exit (another test).

Top button more transparent.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] onesolo:
Com esta nova versao continuo com as mesmas barras brancas no ecran para a parte da lanterna.

Relativamente ao icon da lanterna desaparecer, eu acho q seria logico fazer desaparecer o icon e depois quando se carregasse na mesma area do icon desaparecido da lanterna, a lantera iria outra vez aparecer e num segundo toque o menu principal.

O meu HD nao tem teclado fisico...

Mas diz me la afinal, a cruz grande, serve pra q? Pra sair do programa quando se carrega nela?? Se não, sempre podias por um icon, na mesma zona dos outros, para sair do programa...

----------------------------------------------

Hmm, I still don't get bigger area for my display...

As for the flashlight disappearing suggestion, I think that if the flashlight icon disappears it would be logical to tap the same area of the flashlight icon to bring back the flashlight to return to the main menu.

My device doesn't have keyboard...

But tell me please, what is the function for the BIG white Cross icon?? It is for exit the program?? When you press the big cross or what? If no, why don't you put an icon on the top left, like the other icons for the other functions, to exit the program??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
You dont need to translate everything, I can understand both versions, but this is a english-speaking forum... ;)

Sadly thats all I can do about the screen size, the program I use is very old and there isnt a better one for WM flash... :(

That would give me a lot of bugs on the areas where you really need to press the screen, like the morse code...

OOOOps, sorry about that, I totally forgot it.

Where the exit button is is not important (at least in flash).

When you press the X, it runs a script to place the regkeys back as they were and then tells the flash app to quit.

Its so that I can use my app in fullscreen (hidding the real X button), the X icon just exits the application, but apparently that only works with Flash 7, you did try install it, right?

If that doesnt work I can still make a "special exit" with zapit... But it would be a little heavier and take a little longer to load.

Sorry I couldnt help at all...

Maybe in the future someone will make a better Windows Mobile "SWF to EXE" application. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] red_hanks:
I love it!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
If anyone else has any more info on flash lite 3.1, I'd really like to make the EXIT button work... :/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xboxhaxorz:
I would give the lightsaber g sensor support as well. Theres a lightsaber app separate but with yours we can eliminate the need for it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I would if I could, but I dont know the registry values, nor could I test it... :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
So does anyone know the regkeys for the accelarometer? :/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] arifhanid:
This is a great utility and works well.

I've got it running on the HD - only problem is that I have a white border at the top and bottom of the application.

Would it be possible to get a WVGA version?

Also - if you get the reg keys for the accelerometer then it would be great to extend this feature to the lighter and have something like this http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UH8QxlkfcOw
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dody:
it is sooooooooooooooo great Many thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Thanks, unfortunelly I cant find any "swf to exe" application that has more than the vga/qvga screen areas. If anyone knows any please post the name here.

The lighter movement is quite doable, as the jedi lightsaber, i just need the right regkeys...

Hi Twolf

Today during a visit in a church we had a power failure, I don't tell you the success I had with the lighter :D:D , I think dozens of people were disappointed when the lights returned. So thank you for this moment of fame !

Ps: I think a candle theme would be appropriate, don't you ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Thats so cool, thank you. :)

I will do a candle then, do you have any colour in mind? Or simply white?

Also, to make it a full new three lines of options, does anyone have any more ideias?

I was thinking of a firefly swirling around...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AntoCorsa:
Could you please make a version for HTC HD? I'd love to have it in full screen instead than with the black borders.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AntoCorsa:
Yeah i do agree.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
hmmmm.......
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AntoCorsa:
Yeah, sorry. Didn't read it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _fm:
It looks cool,. thank you twolf,.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Other Ideas

Thank you, white is perfect, you could add a match and blinking eyes like in comics :)

As I told you before your app is going to be a hit and after this new line there will be another and so on and soon the screen will be full of gimmicks that some will like more than others ( for instance in my case I've passed the age for enjoying the light saber ...). So my suggestion: you could create a possibility to edit the menu ( or xml ) so people can set their preferences.

Another possibility would be allowing the app to accept add ons so members could create new widgets and post here their creations.

Or BOTH :D

All the best!

Tito
