Default New Lightsaber App

Okay this is for all the nerds who requested it lol.

Here is the OTA Link or type http://tinyurl.com/bbsaber in your storm web browser.

This is 4-5 hours of my life I will never get back. Money helps though so everyone donate haha

How it works
Open the app, click the screen to turn the lightsaber on. You can swipe the screen left and right for different colors. When you have a color of your choice just swing the phone left and right. Based on how hard you swing it different sounds will play. Click the screen again to turn it off.

Preview]





Every dollar helps

P.S. If you're running .75 OS you're not going to hear any sounds. There is a bug in the OS that reroutes some audio channels to your headphone jack. The sound will try to come out the headphone jack rather then the speaker.

Bug: I just noticed it doesn't play the sounds when you choose a different color. I will fix this when I get home from class in a few hours.

If you're running .75 there is a known bug with the sound. When you try to stream sounds it will sometimes play through the headphone jack rather then the speaker.

This thread shines a little light on it

This is cool, although I don't seem to get much from the motion,. It just seems to keep making the crashing noise, not much of the waving around noise. I'll be sending a couple of bucks donation your way for your work.

Yeah the logic needs a little work. If you swing it slowly left/right you should get different swooping noises and if you swing it hard left/right you should get the crashing noises.

Thanks for the donations guys, I have a few updates left to do when I get home.

1) fix the bug where it wont play sounds when you change the color
2) fix the logic on when to play the sounds.
3) Add a vibrate feature
