There is one thing that bothers me. If you activate the led/torch in lowpower screen and after releasing, there's a little "snap" sound from the device. It doesn't sound good. Think it could be harmful in the long run for the LED?

Edit: I just found out that you can hear the same sound after closing camera app (after photo taken) and also from closing a flashlight app. Wonder why...
youre welcome!

yea, i dont know why either. i has assumed it was the shutter, but i dont hear it when taking a picture.

it happens every time you unload the camera object. {this happens whenever you close the camera app, navigate away from the camera app, lock the phone while in the camera app, or call unload() directly like in my torch}

as for harmful to the LED, i seriously doubt it. anything that would happen as often as the camera going to sleep cant be too bad.

you got me real curious; anybody know? i hear two soft, mechanical clicks, in rapid succession.


P.S. if you use the torch enough, it will obviously decrease the life of the led, as will taking lots of pictures with flash.
