Got a light?

Yup, that’s certainly one way you can use your Flash application on your Windows Mobile PocketPC. There must be numerous occasion where you see someone make use of their cellphone to look for something in the dark. Other times, they are cleverly used in concert as glowing stick. FlashLight’s goal is to utilize that glowing screen on your mobile device for different functions and uses.

What can it do?

Oh, I’m so glad you asked. Check out the list-of-pride-and-joy (for the developer I’m sure):

  • LAMP: A simple white screen.
  • Strobe: To call for attention (or hypnotize someone º_o).
  • Fader: With fade-in/fade-out light, like a lighthouse.
  • SOS: This screen spells s.o.s in morse code.
  • Disco: Random bright colorful lights, like a disco.
  • PEN: In which you can draw temporary light forms.
  • Starlight: animation (heavy on CPU).
  • LOVELYGHT: just a visual test, also good for the loved ones.
  • LIGHTER: for fun on a concert, as you can see on the picture.
  • Match: pretty much like lighter.
  • Candle: pretty much like match, with a twist.
  • Eye of Mordor: For geeks like me (from the LOTRs, remember?)
  • LightSaber: with sounds. Press top, middle or bottom of the screen for diferent effects, or use your keypad.
  • Android: Boot animation
  • Knight rider: Fade.
  • Evil eyes: on the dark.
  • Firefly: click for interaction.
  • Bicycle light: Click to brake.

How does it work?

To use you just need FLASH 7, place the EXE anywhere on your pocket pc and create a shortcut to the Start Menu. And here are some tips in using the application.

  1. As you enter the app, it places you pocket’s screen on full bright mode and removes any fade-out and stand-by option. As you exit it restores your previous settings.
  2. If you click on the screen while on the LAMP area, it changes between 8 colors.
  3. If you click on the FADER screen, it changes between 5 colors.
  4. If you click on the SOS screen, it allows you to create your own morse code, just click and hold your finger on the screen for it to remain white (still with bugs), if you don’t click it for a while it goes back to the automatic SOS.
