Hi
Please could anyone tell me if there is a program that turns the flash on the back on the N70 into a torch, i.e. turning it on permanently like Sony Ericssons do.
I know there is a program called 'torch' but this only turns the screen white.
Thanks
No such app, as far as I know (there is no documented/published programming interface in the S60 Software Development Kits for such).
If you set your N70 as if you were going to take a video, start recording then press pause. The camera LED flash will stay illuminated for a couple of minutes. To be honest though, you may find that the Torch application that you mentioned that turns the display screen white is actually a better source of light as the app also turns the backlight on to max.

What you said above here isn't correct.
But is just something that is missing in the app
When I open "Torch", nothing happens with my screenbrightness, it stays on the same level. The only good thing on "Torch" is that the backlight stays on all the time.
But it would be cool when you open "Torch" the screenbrightness goes to the max. Or you can adjust the brightness level in the app itself.

Apologies, the app I have is actually called 'DiscoLight', it's a Java application (31kB) by 5C.

Where can we dl it? Does it work perfectly on a N70 and is it freeware?

The best suggestion I can make is try a Google search for "Disco Light" +Java as that's how I found the graphic.

Works indeed perfect, much better than "torch" that I had before.
Maybe for other people: here is the download link. Its freeware. Just put the .jar file on the phone and execute the jar to install.

Its freeware. Just put the .jar file on the phone and execute the jar to install.
Apologies again for not remembering the d/l site.

No problem whatsoever about the download site, it was a short look on google (with use of your searchcode) and I got it. I can't wait till midnight to use it 😊
N70Torch is what you needed to use the camera flash as a torch. It can also make the flash to be used with video capture to enhance videos that are captured at low conditions. http://www.otstudio.com/n70torch/features.html
Not a flash - torsh, but with FExplorer, it have a "lights on" option. It�s not bad at all.
Finally there is ...... :rock:
App called "flashlight" It uses camera flashligt as a perfect torch
1 - Install sis file
2 - Start camera and press "menu" button to hide it
3 - Start flashlight app and write code "15001" and press "test" from options menu to activate
How to close
1 - Exit from app. Open it again and write code "15000" and press "test" to deactivate.
WORKS PERFECT ON MY N70

I have a question:
-My 'flashlight' is ON just for about 5 seconds,then it turns off, is this the normal way ?
-Where is this 'TEST' button you mentioned ,I can't find it, I type this code '15001' and the LIGHT is on just for about 5 seconds
Please reply!
No, it is not OK, the LED should stay on until switching off. Test should be in options menu.

finally i got flashlight..really nice app tested on n72... But i have few questions...1.how long to keep flash on before it damages LED or other parts due to heat? Please give your max time....2. Will this app void the warranty? Please help me guys...suggestions required
It won't void your warranty, but the LED gets hot though. I don't recomend to keep it on longer than 10 minutes.
ur flashlight is turning off automatically because u r using the wrong code
its not 15001
it is 150001
thnx
fff
just instal this app n enjoy. ( if u like it then plz just say thanx )
