Is the flashlight app really using this much data - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I downloaded the flashlight app last night cause I needed light as the rom doesn't have torch but I did notice my battery dieing faster than usual today... Did this thing really use 811mb?

Just use tweaked rom. Really great with lots of options including built in torch in notification toggles.

You could also use AppOps and cancel some of the permissions, that the program has, but personally I would consider it a malware and delete it ASAP altogether. It really makes me wonder what did they use so much data for, it couldn't be all advertisement?

Idk what was going on I left the house with the battery topped off.. Reboot and topped off to make sure it was really 100 and got to work and I was already at 94 % then 5 hrs later 50% which by then it should have been only 80-70% then I just started looking thru my settings and saw that, I wouldn't have thought that was with ads and I wouldn't have thought a flash would need anything past 0.1mb to use.. Just blew my mind

There is a build in Widget for the light.
Hold your finger on the empty home screen, tap on Apps and Widgets, the tap on Widgets and look for it.
It is called Assistive Light.
Drag it to your screen and you have the flash light any time you need it by tapping it on or off. :good:

Works great, thanks.
I think I read something in the news, was it GSMArena?, about Flashlight I believe, that it was requesting permissions for things totally unrelated to the operation of the program, like contacts etc, that's when I downloaded AppOpp and started using it, even just seeing what permissions some of those programs request makes you wonder, what are doing behind the door. That's why I don't like Android that much, not easy to even see where the program is located.

I read a flashlight app has "backdoor".
Just add Assistant Light widget and call it a day.

Specifically, the app called Brightest Flashlight Free didn't have a backdoor, but rather was giving out user location along with a unique id for each device.
The Federal Trade Commission on Thursday issued its first enforcement action related to location-based technology, reaching a settlement with the maker of Brightest Flashlight Free for allegedly hiding the fact that it sold information about the location of its users and the unique string of numbers assigned to a device.

I also use the "Assistive Light" widget. Useful to have a light when in the dark.

But that still doesn't explain 800 odd MB of data used, as stated in OP post unless the program crashed and was sending garbage in the loop, or the info itself was incorrect, but battery usage would suggest something was going on. It could have been browser cache history, for all we know.

Has anyone found a compatible flashlight app that uses the LED?

I have tried LED Flash, Moment Flash, Falaxy Flash, and more from the market than I can count or remember and so far none work.
**Edit**
List of apps that work
WINNER: Tiny flashight + LED
The best option IMO
This is the real deal here. Works perfect and adds some other neat features. Thanks doink123 for developing this great app and for making it free for all of us,
The only single, tiny little complaint (or rather, suggestion) is a widget to toggle the LED on/off, but other than that, amazing.
Runner Up 1) Power Control Plus - $1.99 In The Market)
It works as a widget to toggle the LED on and off. And it works great, only down side is it is $1.99. For me, I use the flashlight on a daily basis so it is worth it for me until a free alternative is found or developed. it does have a lot of other great feaures to but you can read those in the market.
Runner Up 2) Instant Heart Read - Free In The Market
An app to check your hearbeat, but instantly turns the LED on so it works as a flashlight app. Kind of a cool app anyways, I am leaving this on my phone just for fun.
Dunno about the Epic... hard to say. But on my EVO I use "LED Desire light" which gets very bright when turned up all the way (probably because the EVO has 2 LEDs). And it has a widget.
Hopefully they make a compatible app/widget for the Epic flash soon. EpicFlash would be a nice sequal to MomentFlash (love this)
Well I found an app that works... sort of.
It is called Flashligh LED
The app itself is very basic. It does not turn the light on/off like a toggle. Rather, there is a timer and when you hit the button, it turns on the light for X amount of time.
Now, the app will turn on the light, but only for about 1 second or so, no matter what you change the time setting to.
Still not what I am looking for, but getting closed. Woot!
Nexus One Torch was my favorite on my Nexus! The widget matched perfectly with the Galaxy TW theme!
I surprisingly use the flashlight ALOT.

This is a very good sign. I'm sure trrobert(might be a bit off on the spelling) who did momentflash could peek at this to adopt what does work and get his working for us.

Bump. Hopefully now that this device is released someone can take a stab at this. Woot.
I'm using Power Control Plus from the Market & when you add flashlight as one of your buttons it works! It turns on & off the light with no problems. It is a slight delay when turning the light on.
^Awsome tried it and it worked. Thanks!!
I can confirm it Power control plus works, such an elegant solution, better than some cheesy flash light picture taking up the whole screen.
Thanks journeyman73!
Just so you can fix it OP, its Power Control Plus is $1.99.
Instant heart rate app
Instant heart rate automatically turns on the flash, so thats one way to do it.

Hi guys,
I've just released Tiny Flashlight + LED v2.2. I tried to make it work on Epic 4G by guessing the right parameters (because I don't have an Epic 4G device).
Can you check it and tell me if it works?
Sorry great app but led did not light up
Confirmed, Tiny Flashlight does not light up the LED on my epic.
I reorganised the first post with the new apps that have been found to work.

So LED shows up now, and clicking the power turns it on, w00t!
There is a little red label above the power button that always says 0%, what controls that?
Also, the power button doesn't turn the light off, but exiting the app does so this is much better than what we had before!

Desk Clock

I'm trying to auto-start the desk clock in screensaver mode using tasker.
Basically, I want to replicate starting the (stock) clock app, then long-pressing on it, so that the clock turns blue (I don't want it to dim, which would be a short-press).
I'm attempting to do this using an Action Intent, but so far I have failed miserably.
Any help would be appreciated.
I can create a separate version of the clock that could do that. Any other requests?
Edit: I mean I can build it right into the clock app itself
That would be great. Thank you.
I've managed to create a Component Intent that starts the screensaver, but the actual clock isn't displayed, even if the clock app is already open.

I'm going to create a thread later in the themes and app section with the modified clock app. Would be fun to get some input and modify the app according to user suggestions. Just as a fun project.
Btw I will build al those modifications right into the app itself. (Maybe add some intent "listeners" later)

Actually, here's another request!
Would you be able to include the ability for the screensaver-clock to auto-display after the phone has been face-up for a certain period of time (e.g. 30 seconds), and for it to revert back to the home screen when the orientation changes (i.e. it is picked up).

Lol.. can you describe this in more specific words. What exactly is the scenario here? You have the phone laying flat on your desk and want to launch the desktop clock after 30 secs and if you pick it up it should quit the clock and go to the home screen? Is that it?

Sounds interesting. So you think this is generally useful? Do you have your phone plugged to a power source when you have it on your desk? I'm wondering how the battery drain is when you do this without external power and just a all black screen with only the digits of the clock.
Well I've come from using a Dell Streak, and compared to that, the GN battery seems to last forever!
If the battery is low, I can always turn the screen off, but my phone auto-syncs to my laptop using samba, and I can't access my phone from my computer if the screen lock is on.
My thinking is that having the screensaver active will drain less battery than displaying the homescreen constantly.

Nice nice... for amoled screens the drain would be even less because the black pixels consumes nearly no power. I'll give it a try. I agree it would be a nice thing to have a clock continuously displayed when the phone is laying around doing nothing.
Good luck!

A bunch of questions?

Howdy, gentlemen (and gentleladies) I have quite a few questions regarding the note 2. I know my way around android, these are about the device itself. As questions are answered, I will update the OP with the solutions / answers for reference, so others might learn from my ignorance
I bought a flip cover case, not the genuine samsung case, but one off ebay. It doesnt have an indentation for the home button so it is constantly being turned on. Is there a fix, preferably without rooting, for this? Maybe using the proximity sensor?
With the same flip case, I would like to know if it is at all possible to have the devices screen automatically turn on when it is opened, and turn off when it is shut? (Think "iPad with its magnetic cover") Possibly through the use of NFC tags or proximity sensor? The proximity sensor would have obvious issues with other things interfering. SOLUTION FOUND: DOWNLOAD "SIMPLE COVER LOCK" FROM PLAY STORE.
Are there mods that allow selecting something using the S-Pen's button, while it is in the air? Maybe using it to highlight text while in the air or click the button to register an input? I do a lot of copy and pasting and a feature like this can greatly improve productivity.
Is it possible to get the S-Pen to be able to push the soft keys? I absolutely hate having to continually change my hand posture whenever I need to access the back key or open a menu. Maybe, building on my previous question, have some sort of air gesture with the S-Pen button depressed that performs the actions of the soft buttons? WORK-AROUND, NO TRUE SOLUTION YET: GESTURE < AND ^ WITH S-PEN BUTTON DEPRESSED FOR BACK AND MENU ACTIONS, RESPECTIVELY
My last question is simple. Is the LED indicator an RGB LED? Like the one on the galaxy nexus that can be changed to any color? It would be cool to have different notification colors per app, blue for facebook, green for messaging and so on. ANSWER: YES
I appreciate the help, normally I would use my Google-fu but I much prefer answers from other users.

I can somewhat answer the first question. There are apps that allow you to use the proximity sensor to turn off and on the screen. A couple that I've personally tried are Intellicover and Auto Screen on. There's also Screen Lock and Off that allows you to turn off your screen by tapping a button. These work well, but if your flip cover is constantly bumping the home button, using these apps won't do anything different as your home button will still get bumped and then the screen will constantly turn on.
the best app to use for turning on the screen automatically is "simple cover lock" its a small free app that does just what it says it was created for the note 2 and does what it needs to really good
For the menu & back button question, hold the button on your s pen & draw a < on the screen to go back & a ^ for the menu
Edit: Also, Light Flow from the play store let's you control the LED lights

Thanks, seems to work fine for a beta, although it does show my homescreen for a second after the flip cover opens before going to the lock screen, even if it was already on the lockscreen when I shut it. I've never seen that happen with any lockscreen alternative, must be a bug. also, it gets kind of annoying if I accidentally move my hand over the proximity sensor and it shuts the display off, but the note is so big that this occurs rarely. Nonetheless, thanks

to fix the screen turning off when you move your hand over you would need to change the "turn off screen after" time to 5 so it would take longer to turn off when you closed the cover, i dont have the lockscreen bug on my rooted note 2 running a 4.1.2 samsung rom
I see, ill do that! I dont plan on rooting anytime soon, so I guess I have to live with it.

Glovebox - Edge app

Wonderful app that uses the edge very well for edge swipes. I bought the paid app a long time ago so I don't know what the free version offers (if there even is one lol)
Once you get it set up with the icon packs and folders it's great. I've completely removed all apps and folders from my home screen.

I loved the app but looks like there's some issue with my phone or I'm missing out some settings. I have the clock widget on my phone and whenever I use it, it starts from the bottom of it and doesn't covers the whole soon rather just the part below the clock widget. The same happens in the app drawer as well, would love a solution for that.

I am facing the same issue, it takes longer to open a app from glovebox than opening the same app from homescreen even when the app is in the recent app list.
It takes even longer if you have cleared all running apps and then you open a app from glovebox. Another than this lag issue rest all great.
I already bought the app and used it but went back to the old homescreen setup since it took so long to switch between and open new apps

[APP] Pixel Pulse for ambient display

Introducing Pixel Pulse - a simple app to make your Ambient Display pulse when you have notifications!
Choose the interval and select the apps you want you to cause your screen to wake.
Optional paid features let you select different icons and colors for specific apps but the interval and app filter core functionality is all free.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.compass.pixelpulse
If you had previously purchased Ambi-Turner, it has been updated for the new permissions, but because it was written for 8.0 and when Google's ambient display worked differently I decided to leave it as it is. You may however transfer your purchase status of Ambient Display to Pixel Pulse using both apps.

Paid customization adds the ability to always pulse (with a view that shows you that you have no important notifications), and the ability to select icons and colors for specific applications.
Screenshots are difficult because you can't screenshot the ambient display. I'll need to try and take actual photographs.

The update somewhat fixed the timing issue but it still is off by 5 seconds. When setting the internal to 20 seconds it pulses after 15 seconds.
