Welcome and thanks for the Tip.

Just got my ATT 8310 last night. So far liking it still a few bugs to work out like profile and having vibrate on except for certain callers. But on to my question, it has the 4.2 os. All I have to do is get the 4.5 os and upgrade to get the video recording on the ATT 8310 and I can then use the flash light functionality?

You can also just hit the spacebar twice while in the video recorder. It only stays on for 20-30 seconds I believe so as not to waste away the battery.

And welcome to the crack!

Yesterday upgraded to OS 4.5. Reboots are faster and I have the flashlight. Just open the video recorder and hit space bar twice. I also under option turned light on Auto, so I dont have to hit space bar.

Is there any way to do it with the 8310 just using the camera?

Did this last night just out of curiosity. Worked well. I usually just use the lit screen to navigate the stairs on the way to bed. The led is BRIGHT!!

Thanks.

I tried the flashlightpro program, but all it does is display a blank white screen, which helps a bit, but really isn't much better than displaying any other screen on the BB (calendar, messaging, etc.). Not worth taking up valuable memory on my phone.

It would be REALLY nice if this program fired up the LED light instead without having to start the video camera.

I simply did what keywest610 said (changed left convenience button to video camera), but I set my backlight to ALWAYS on...I wake up alot at night. I usually just use the light from the display to make my way around in the dark. Not no more! LOL

My phone is rarely out of a sleeve/case when not in use. The magnetic sleeve shuts the phone down and turns the light off. And I never have to start recording to use the light...just hit that left button and the light comes on!

there are 3 flash options...flash off, auto, and flash on...

pressing space activates one right away....so why are you guys pressing space bar twice? i just have to press it enough times so it goes into on mode

There is no video recorder for any Curves besides the 8330, though with the new OS coming out there will be a video recorder option.

Hey... I've recorded lots of videos on my 8310 with the "new" OS, if this is news to you.

[shwy]

and I've used that light, too.

Video recorder came with the OS 4.5 update. Works great on my 8310!
