My Flashlight

PreGame · 06/19/2009, 09:26 PM

The flashlight application has been COMPLETELY rewritten. It no longer needs .sh files and is now compatable with 1.3.5

I will be adding many new features but I just wanted to get a fix for the 1.3.5 issue out. Stay tuned for many new updates.

The new version can be downloaded via Preware or WebOS Quick Installer.

DNic · 06/19/2009, 09:30 PM

Does it actually turn on the flash or just present a white page?

PreGame · 06/19/2009, 09:42 PM

Do you see a white page? :P

That's awesome, you should post the code you used on the wiki or here for the rest of us to enjoy.

Elysian893 · 06/19/2009, 09:50 PM

Seriously, post this up!

Mustang46L · 06/19/2009, 11:49 PM

It would be AWESOME if you posted up some files and instructions on the Wiki.

I am sure He installed the "web shell" application and then called the bash shell script from his web page AJAX call. It's not a native Mojo call.... Or prove me wrong.

I broke it trying to take a different approach. I will post it on the wiki once I get it working.

You should pull in the accelerometer and use a shake to turn it on and a shake to turn it off. I know somewhat Apple like, but I still think it would be cool.
On another note, your signal strength is about the same as mine at home...

huskrfj · 06/20/2009, 05:08 PM

you should actually post a pic of the flashlight, or a video or somethin! Then hook up with this thread and get it out there!

I did practically the exact same thing! I even started off with the devmode switcher app. What did you use to interface the linux call with js?

PreGame · 06/20/2009, 10:32 PM

Well I created my own service which executes the .sh scripts that turns the light on and off however I am currently working on getting rid of the shell scripts and just using the application and my system-service i created

PreGame · 06/20/2009, 10:43 PM

I have the app ready to be released but i have no where to host it.

PreGame · 06/20/2009, 11:00 PM

I don't know how to make an installer so i will have to create a readme for people to follow on installing it. This is only a beginner version as I wanted to release something for people to use. I am currently working on making it work without shell scripts but am having a problem wit hthe commands. I have to head out for a bit but will create a readme when I get back tonight and will zip up the files and put them in my original post.
