EVO LTE Flashlight app?

**EeJLP-** · 05-26-2012, 01:36 PM

The original EVO got a nice flashlight app in an update...

Any word on the EVO LTE getting a flashlight app? I'd like the one from the original EVO if it's compatible and won't ruin the LTE's LED or whatever.

Anyone transfer the flashlight app over from the original EVO to the LTE?
If not, what flashlight app is best and why (features, different brightness setting, etc.)?

Prepost edit:
The HTC flashlight app doesn't appear to be on Google's Play Store, but:

*go to the HTC Hub app (preinstalled on the EVO LTE)
*tap Applications
*Categories
*HTC Essentials
*Flashlight

I was looking for that app last night. Thanks!

Thanks, didn't even realize there wasn't a flashlight app until I read this thread. LOL

Quick follow up...

Just noticed it doesn't have a menu button (first app I've found without it). With the original EVO's menu button, the flashlight app has options for Auto Flash (just keeps flashing on and off) and SOS (flashes 3 times, pauses, repeat - sometimes normal speed sometimes slower).

I've never used the Auto Flash or SOS.. didn't even know about them until now. Just throwing that info out there. Still a perfectly good flashlight app with 3 levels of brightness and a good look to the app itself.

There's another app called Tiny Flashlight that I am kind of digging more now, it has a lot of options for onscreen lights but it can also do pulses and even has a text box you can type into and it will flash the morse code for you.

No flashlight? :-(

Interestingly, this is not working for me. I created an account and verified it as it required. I am able to sign into the account on my desktop. But when I do the above, and click on "DOWNLOAD", it greys out the button for a second, than ungreys, doing nothing. No notifications, no app installed, no messages or anything. I tried rebooting the phone.... same thing.

Many other people reporting the same thing

Thanks for this is well, kinda hidden in there. I checked the HUB before searching but I guess I didn't look good enough. Won't download though, having same problem as crxssi. WTF htc why wouldn't you pre-load this?

Yeah that's why I download a different app. Couldn't get in either gray area on bottom.

I don't like the HTC one, I use LED Light, which has a handy widget, or MotoTorch LED. You might also want to check out an app called Magnify. Great for reading small print in dark places like menus.

Is there a widget option for this? Right now I use TelsaLED and it has different style widgets including an ICS style widget, but if HTC has one then I'd prefer that especially if it matches the sense themed power widgets.
