Hi guys,

I have a couple of questions about my N95:

- Does anyone know a freeware tool to use my white LED by the camera as flashlight?
- When I use the GPS application from Nokia (the tripmeter and so on), it is possible to tweak symbian that the LCD backlight stays on? I dont mean to have it permanently on, only when GPS thing is activated.
- Is there an application to use your Nokia N95 AS an Bluetooth mouse, so that I can loop back to it with TomTom navigator using external GPS mouse?

Please help me out!
Thanks

bluetooth mouse? i guess you mean bluetooth gps module, in which case, yes:

there is a python script which outputs the gps data over bluetooth, and using another phone with tom tom installed, you can select your N95 as a 'virtual' gps module...

unfortuanatly this requires 2 phones, as it doesnt work in the loop back sense that you mention. (n95 cant detect its own bluetooth!!)

I saw a python script that makes the LED pulse, but no solid light for use like a torch.

There's an option in the settings to keep the backlight on in Nokia Maps.
