[Q] LED Flashlight App (Metro)

I'm looking to build an flashlight app with the LED flash. I know this has been done before, but I'm planning on making the most basic, Metro-style app possible, with really well fitting icon and interface. All the other apps out there that do this are ugly or have ugly interfaces. I'm planning on putting it out for free on here, and if Microsoft accepts it, on the Marketplace.
Only problem is, I'm not sure how to active the LED flash. According to this post, it's something to do with this:
Code:
ID_CAP_CAMERA
. So how do I use that to activate the flash? Having trouble figuring it out.
Thanks.

Please post in correct section.
Firstly this is a question
Second, its about software development.
Moved to WP7 Software Development

I know it is in the undocumented Mango APIs somewhere under System.Reflection. Somehow you capture video without really saving it (with the flash setting on).

Anyone have any more insight into this? I dont really care for any on the market they all have too much "extra" crap or terrible looking icons so I just figure I'll make what I want myself but I too need to know how to get the constant on LED. Anyone care to help?

It was discussed here a long time ago (should be in archives, available with forum search) but also take a look to the Dave's article and app http://www.daveamenta.com/2011-01/led-flashlight-for-windows-phone-7/
So, the key points are:
- you should delete recorded videos by yourself;
- to bypass marketplace validation, you should use Microsoft.Phone.Media.Extended assembly with dynamical load and dynamic function references.

The best theme is the one that works for YOU. Everyone is different. Play around, create something. That's the beauty of Android.

Agreed.
OP - look at an app called Zoomper and Themer. There are so many that do many different things

Found this through YouTube: Car Home Ultra
It's not exactly a theme, but an app. Yes, it's free.

Check this out. It's not my work.
It's called : DIGITAL CAR.
I stumbled across a forum that had the beta release for testing some time back. Got in on it and works great for a dash install. Mine is integrated into the dash of my 2011 gmc sierra. And mounted to the face of a double din DVD player. So it folds out with the DVD players touchscreen when accessing the ad card slot and DVD. The apk looks like it's an actual car stereo. The center car manufacturer logo is inter changable and it has plenty of built in logos to choose from. You can load your own presets from diferent music apks or fm radio if you have one built in to your device. Or simply put you favorite apks in the preset spots. There is also multiple background images to choose from or pick from your gallery. YOU CAN EVEN FLIP FLOP THE LOGO TO A GPS AND SPEEDOMETER.

Cardboard- getting double vision?

Hi,
The cardboard still works on games which have their native implementation of side-by side graphics. It also worked on apps which were using cardboard v1 sdk. The cardboard template I used to make mine was http://pcpress.rs/download/MojAndroid/print_yourself.pdf
Now, in cardboard v2 apps, the left and right images are way apart from each other, so, its impossible for human eyes to focus.
Here is a screenshot :

}
So, is there any way to make cardboard apps work on this device?

an update, I experimented with https://www.google.com/get/cardboard/viewerprofilegenerator/ and this is what i came up best with:
Its a bit blurry/pixelated, but the ppi of our phone is way too low for stuffs like vr. Might not work for your eyes and lens.

Thanku soo much that worked well till now i was using a custom viewer profile made for one plus u can find it in the link below .... that also solved the issue of double vision but still its little blurry i guess its the matter of ppi proper setting of ppi may solve the issue i am not able to create a custom viewer profile so it will be really helpful if someone finds the fix..... thanx again

Hi guys...
Had this working fine before and now it's screwie..
Gear VR works fine.
Google Cardboard when starting , has the inter-lense adjusted to far apart. The two images are seperated to much.
Is there a way to start from scratch (by deleting some config files?)
The left and right displayed image need to come together / closer.
Ive deleted cache/data for Cardboard and uninstalled / reinstalled
Anyone have any ideas ?

Huawei Music app issue on OnePlus 5T

Hi there,
I loved the music all that I had on my Huawei P8 Lite and would love having this one again on my OnePlus 5T.
Now I noticed there are different versions of it but managed to find the version that I wanted. Sadly for some reason when I tap on the button to find songs on my device it says it found 721 items but then it doesn't show them in the app... So basically I can't listen to my music on the app...
Does someone know a way to solve this?
Thanks in advance!!

First off that site is a known warez site and banned on XDA. So I would remove the pic.
Without any logs taken to show what the error is The only guess would be it relies on that OEM framework to work properly.

Thanks! Not sure if I can get a log somewhere but I'll see, it just shows that songs were found but doesn't show them in the end, same issue is with other versions, although some of the Chinese ones (that I'm not looking for) shows the songs without issues

Do, a search for pulling a log cat. That will tell you how. The follow the directions and it will tell you what's wrong. You can compare the two versions to see why one works and the other doesn't.

Question Digital wellbeing apk ? & problem with nova launcher

Hi guys !
I have been facing the known problem for a few days now.
This is that when I press the center button it keeps asking me to select Launcher .
I searched for this problem and read reports that the app is causing it Digital wellbeing.
In my case, however, the suggested solutions (uninstall updates, freeze app, clear data) do not solve the problem.
Here I should note that the application is pre-installed from the Samsung store, uninstalling it is not possible.
Do you have any idea that can solve this problem?

That's a trash app, worthless. Either use Package Disabler or an adb edit to stop it if you can't disable this app in settings.
Edit:
Just tested it on my N10+/Pie variant. It can't be disabled in settings. How thoughtless of them.
Use one of my first two options to take out the trash plus it removes it from the settings menu.
Another Google save the dumb bunnies, feel good parasite service. Gookill sucks.

Do you have any apκ (Package Disabler) to recommend me?

Sent you the link. Not on Playstore.

Ιn the end the problem was created by the application fitpro .
I found it completely by accident while looking for the solution to the reports I was finding about Digital wellbeing.
As soon as I uninstalled it, the problem was solved and everything now works perfectly as before.

DP makes finding buggy apps easier by letting you disable them on the fly.
The interactive widget let's you toggle one or more apps on/off.
