Is it that hard to update your market description?

You are losing all the droid owners that have updated to froyo.

While out would be great if you were able to update the ap, just good communication would help…

I know you get inundated with all of these people asking for support and it can be a constant barrage answering the same questions over and over. However, I’m going to be that guy and ask one more time, “Will you have the source available any time soon?”

I am new to developing Android and the LED flashlight is the first thing I looked for on my LG Ally. Nothing has been made available and I don’t see anything on the horizon.

I’m not asking you to update your app or to fix it for me. In fact, I kind of look forward to learning how to fix it myself. However, your source would be very helpful since I am having a hard time figuring out how it is that one accesses the LED (via the camera, it appears).

I think I read somewhere that Froyo 2.2 has better access to the LED, but my rooted Ally only has 2.1 and I am nervous about upgrading the OS (if that is even possible).

Please let me know what your plans are for the source…..and if it won’t be made public anytime soon, I would REALLY appreciate an emailed jar file to look over and review.

An Android Noob,

Jeremiah

Any update on that fix?

If not, could you at least let your users know about the old version in the market description?

Comment on Android 2.0 – Changing Widget Layout Dynamically by Panthro

Hey Guy

I’m developing an android application that need to do something very similar of what you have done.

I need to update the view of my widget accordingly with a status that I will get from the database, it’s almost a toggle widget. Like yours, but the status comes from the DB.

I don’t know how to run the onUpdate from a click in the widget.

I just binded the onclick of an image in the widget with a pendingIntent that launches a Service, but the service is not able to update the widget view (at least I haven’t see how to do that) and I don’t know how to bind the onUpdate with the widget click.

Thanks anyway, and sorry for the terrible english!

@Sundawg

I am working on a fix.

@M Goodwin

if the LG Ally gets updated to 2.2, then it should work.

Any chance of an update that will support the LG Ally?

@Mainism

Simply loading the FRF57(or FRF72) build onto your DROID will almost certainly cause problems with apps. It is basically like an “alpha” version of the release. This is why every DROID running a leaked 2.2 is having the problem. The release is just not stable enough and Motorola hadn’t had time to fix issues.

I have a link to the old version on the AndroidForums….

Here is an awesome summary of what my point is.
