flashlight APP
 
flashlight app has only worked the first few times since downloaded to my N900. Is there anything that I should change on the phone settings in order for it to work?
I tried uninstalling it and re installing to no avail.
Im a Noob with no know how on programing and such.

just tried uninstalling it and reinstalling and it worked only once. Now it's currently not working again. I restarted the device and nothing. Man I wish I could get it to work flawlessly. What an annoying app,:mad: seems to have a mind of it's own

It only appears on the menu when the lens cover is open
Try opening the camera lens, close down the camera application and check the menu again.

Try scrolling to the bottom of menu.
Is flashlight listed in application
manager as installed?

Did you scroll to the bottom of the battery menu once the lens cover is opened.
On my screen the flashlight
button is not visible until scrolled

Mine does not work either anymore. It used to work. Now the flash LEDs quickly just flash but do not stay on, althoughnthe item in Desktop menu seem to toggle normal way ON and OFF.

You need to launch the camera app once after each boot -- it does something to initialize the camera, and after that the flashlight works. Note that if you have the flashlight "on" (but not working), the camera app won't start, thus won't fix the problem.
