(Q) Camera LED as flashlight?

Hello,
can i use the camera led as a flashlight? None of the flashlight applications i tried worked with my black. Is it possible?
Regards

Yes, it's possible. App with ID com.devuni.flashlight works for me. Can't post direct link to it, but you'll find it under the name Tiny Flashlight + LED by Nikolay Ananiev.

It works flawlessly!

Another app that works with the LGOB is the free "Swiss army knife", it also gives you a nice set of other tools, compass, ruler, water level, stop watch ...

You have to tick an option in the menu fpr the flashlight to work, though.

Then everything is normal. That is what is supposed to happen.

for the brightness
try removing lights.msm7k.so from system/libs/hw folder in the system.

[Q] No Active Display after changing LCD Density

I've been applying assorted mods and V6 Supercharging lately just to see what all I can do before I break stuff. Well, I broke Active Display and I wasn't sure what did it. I restored back to stock 4.4 and noticed that Active Display breaks when I change the LCD density lower than 320 (I'm using 280). After the phone goes to sleep a few times, it wacks out and won't let me unlock it. Shortly after it soft reboots and Active Display no longer works.
Has anyone else noticed this problem and were you able to make Active Display work with the lower density?

The thing with changing DPI is it makes the active display go off center, and thus crash sometimes. Change back the DPI of Active Display only to stock 320 while keeping the rest of the system on 280.

I didn't know you could do that. I'm on AT&T 4.4, how would I change just AD to 320? I only know how to change system through build.prop.

I found that if you change certain apps that you have set up to show notifications in active display, if you adjust the DPI you'll lose the pictures for the notification. For example, change the Messaging app to something other than 320. Poof, No more pictures.

While in recovery, change Active Display to 320 in App Settings module, build.prop to 280 (or whatever number you desire). Reboot, profit
Also, if anyone wants tablet mode for certain apps (I use mine on GMail, go to App Settings module, select the particular app, change DPI to around 220, and DP to 800X1280)

So I finally got around to refreshing my phone. 280 in build.prop with 320 set for active display makes the phone right where I want it with resolution and size
My new favorite phone of all time. And I don't even have AOKP, and never will

You have to install Xposed and the module App Settings. Once you've rebooted and Xposed is active, go into App Settings and set the DPI on Active Display to 320. Then set your DPI in build.prop to whatever you want. Reboot and enjoy.

[alternative] alternative double chop flashlight

I found this app on play store that might be our best alternative double chop flashlight like we wanted in Moto action.
It's called shake flashlight, it works a bit the same like double chop but you can "shake it on", hehehe get it? "shake it off" by Taylor Swift.... No? too soon?...... okay....
Anyway, comment down if you have something to else to say or what you have experienced.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidrocker.shakeflashlight
Edit: How to make it permanent even after reboot(You have to be rooted):
1 - download lucky patcher, for some of you already familiar with it. Skip this
http://lucky-patcher.netbew.com/
2a- run lucky patcher and choose "shake flashlight" -> tool ->move to system app -> reboot -> voila, enjoy
2b- you can do the same as Titanium backup too but the lucky patcher worked alot faster for me.
If it works, please don't forget to hit "thanks"

Bomb-diggity. Thanks so much for the walkthrough dude this is the best way to get the flashlight working for sure. I used to assign it to a long press softkey but not anymore! Great idea!

It need's a few tweak, man, it's not perfect but it'll helps you in some way or another. maybe in future update it'll be more efficient.

I'm using it now. Need to chop at least 3 times to work. Consider triple chop gesture then

I only chopped twice, I changed the sensitivity to 1 , take a slight force to chop but it was worth it, other sensitivity is very unstable to me.

I'm having sensitivity set to 6. Lower than that I feel like throwing my phone on the floor

Yeah but guys the app is a shake to wake, not a chop. I think the chop feature is deep in the system somewhere, as some root apps will show that it's a setting that has been disabled in the system (perhaps future kernels/software updates will bring the feature out).
I wouldn't recommend karate chopping the thing - just set the sensitivity low and shake it a bit.

Not bad but using it with the moto camera twist feature is not recommended =(

good job
you still need SuperSU, I've achieved simply by changing the nomre team in the build.prop
ro.product.name = lux_retla_ds

ro.product.name = clark_retla_ds

It has to be enabled . You have to enable them in settings. Explore it.

Yes you can however I think StatusBar shows only status of SIM1 which is kinda weird

Yes double tap to wake and fingerprint works flawlessly... In fact I find fingerprint detection to be snappier than ever in MiUi

Yep, not that good but then had no problems with cellular calls from either SIM. I could be missing something but then I literally scanned the entire settings but couldn't find a workaround for showing signal status of SIM 2 in status bar.
Plus I did find a menu for choosing what navbar buttons do but no option to toggle navbar lol.
Although I couldn't get Xposed working on this ROM and neither SuperSU. Although the ROM is pre-rooted but procedure for granting root access to an app will at least take you 25 seconds which is such a pain in the **s.
But then I'm going to use it for at least a few days. Never thought MiUi will ever be this stable for our device
