    Can the flash from the camera be used as a flashlight? I can't figure out how to use it as a flashlight.

    Thank you,

    Turn on the video camera. The led is a constant light then.

    If it's strobing, that means you are holding the Space key down, just press it once and it will come on in a constant light.

    thanks man! lol, that's pretty sick that it does stay on, great for in the car or looking for something close up, find something new out everyday!

    Does anyone know if the Bold 9650 has the "flashlight" feature that the Curve 8330 has? I'm not sure I would buy the Bold without it. I use the flashlight ALL the time on my Curve.

    Theres a free app in BB app world. I downloaded it for my 8830 and will work on the 8560. One touch app, no need to get into the video mode beacause it does it all for you. One Touch Flashligh App.. I think is the correct name.

    If this is the flashlight from Jared company; be warned. There are many reports that it uses your address book to send out spams. Here's a thread on this forum:
