I tried all the moto droid ones, none work. We'll need someone to make a new one to work with the inc's LED.

Not true. We need root AND a new program because of the dual LED(s) instead of single. Theres 2 remember?
Droid has dual leds
Won't the APP from the HD2 work it has duel leds.

I downloaded an app called "Color Flashlight"... it works well and has some nifty features. Check it out in the Android Market.

Doesn't this app utilize the screen for light?
Most people want an app that uses the camera LEDs which are significantly more useful as a flashlight than the screen.
Doesnt anybody realize that these kind of apps REQUIRE ROOT!?! None of these will work unless we gain root. Work on doing that instead of crapping up these forums with useless posts and questions.

yeah u shouldn't need root for these apps because with my moto i had that app before i rooted the thing...somebody jus needs to cook an app for the DI so the flashlight will work
Depends on if the API is released for it.
To use the LEDs on the Nexus (another HTC phone.. unlike the Droid) it DOES require root access.
So it would make sense that it will require root for this HTC phone, too.

I've had my phone for almost 2 weeks now.
First Android and touchscreen phone ever owned.
I have a few questions:
1) How do I clear only certain calls from my call history? I only see the option to clear all call history. On my old phone (Nokia N82) I was able to erase only certain calls made (for example, the last number dialed).
2) How do I lock my screen? Right now it autolocks on its own after a certain period of time. I want to lock it own my own like I could do on all my old phones.
3) What is the best FREE forum posting app out there?
Also, I tried to root my phone last weekend, but something went wrong and for a second I thought I had bricked my phone.
Thankfully, everything is okay but I do not plan to try it again for obvious reasons.

Can you also recommend a good FREE forum posting app?
I know there's Tapatalk, but it's not free.
1)when you go in to your call history just long press the number you want to delete and choose delete form call history
2) One suggestion is go to settings>security and change the lock time to immediate
Hope this helps
Rooting can be a scary thing but i just recommend reading up as much as you can, until you feel comfortable again. then try the Ace hack Kit. it what what i used and it was super simple.

I'd look into "Prey" if I was you. It's free, and works across a bunch of devices. I have it on my Inspire, my MacBook Pro, and my iPod Touch. If your device has a front facing camera, like the iSight on my laptop, you can take pictures, and also screenshots of whatever the person who jacked it is doing. It also will tell you what WiFi network they are using, and where they are. And it's free!

I purchased a motoactv and couldn't use the notification feature because the app is only able to be downloaded on a Motorola handset through Android Market. I have a HTC Sensation and i get the yellow banner in market.
I was wondering if someone maybe has the Motoactv apk and could lend it out?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
you would get my eternal love and gratitude as well if you could post it! but how do you like yours so far MarsVoltron?
I love the concept of receiving notifications on my
Wrist since i always miss phone calls AND texts.
I just can't use the feature since I'm with HTC and not MOTO
I wish it did have more options for personalization, EQ for music, or use it as a remote to control music already on your Android device.
But until I get the MOTOACTV app its a big waste of cash.
Do you also have one?

I tried messing around with my Nook to fool the market into thinking it was a motorola, no luck so far. I hope somebody with a moto phone can get this apk!
I will have a Motorola Droid a little later. I looked on Motorola's list of compatible phones and it was listed.
I was wondering what would be the easiest way to pull the apk? It's my friends phone and don't wanna mess it up.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
The way I've done it is to just install mybackup from the market, back up the app to the sd card, put the sd card in the computer and open the folder it backed up to. There will be an apk right inside the folder.
Would love for this app to work with my HTC Glacier Mytouch 4G. The fitness tracker isn't cheap and I want the full functionality. A thank you in advance to anyone that can pull the apk.
Yeah I know exactly how you feel. I purchased it primarily for the the notification feature. My guess is we probably won't see anything till a little bit after the new Razr is launched.
But ill have a droid later and pull it from there.

i got the apk off a droid 2 but couldn't get it to install on my EVO, it would just fail saying application not installed, its attached in case any of you can figure out
after looking into it further it seems like the install fails because it requires access to com.motorola.blur.contacts.permission and blur.service.blur.Permissions.INTERACT_BLUR_SERVICE which both don't exist on my EVO...
anyone know a way around this?
Thanks for posting the apk. I found a way to remove the Blur permissions and it installed on my Samsung charge. I don't get the watch until tomorrow, but it looks like the app is working fine Someone with one check it out and let me know.

by the way...just tested it with my EVO and the watch and it works great, tried a few test txts and got the notification on the watch, and it listed the contact name too
Awesome I'm glad it works! I just searched around xda for some info on editing apk files and found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
Once you get it extracted there is a file named AndroidManifest.xml I opened it with notepad deleted the blur permissions, then used that app to repackage and sign the app. It was kind of a crap shoot on my part but it worked the first try
Awesome! Great job loaded on and paired with my watch perfectly I just have a problem receiving calls through the watch. Doesn't ring or anything with or without a headset attached.

Thanks guys have it installed on my Casio Commando, It is working great with text messages.
I dont have it working with phone calls but I think it is because I have standard headphones installed (no microphone) I will test that later.
Thanks a million
This is my first post but as someone who is striving to lose 30 more pounds after losing 55, this is awesome work. I own the EVO and this connectivity was the dealbreaker for me. For Motorola-tied huge to google to hitch their wagon to only Moto phones is a joke, especially on a device that runs Android.
Enough of my rant, thanks again for enabling this on other phones!!

I might be wrong on this, but you might need to pair the headset with the phone and not the watch. So both the watch and the headset are paired with the phone, give it a try.
Seen it on Engadget thought I'd share in case any one was curious. Works fine for me.

The IR blaster on this device is much better than the LG or Samsung versions, IMO... And when it works apparently (sorry for the luck). It does upset me that you can't add it to the lock screen like Samsung though. With viper, and probably other ways as well, you can add the shortcut to the lockscreen, so that save a few clicks.
