Can camera flash/movie light be turned off?

I think that it is neat that the new iPhone 4 has a camera flash/movie light, but does anyone know if it is user controllable? I would like to be able to turn it off as there are certain situation where a flash going off would annoy people.

I haven't come across anything that mentions if this option is available. The option should be included - automatic, off, or on.

  • Camera Flash ON- Won't turn off

    I took kids out to the beach yesterday and had my phone in my holster and on my belt and totally forgot. It got a little wet and I took it off and put it aside. It stayed ON and I even received a call from it. When I hung up the phone after the call, the Camera Flash turned on and I am unable to turn it off. It is draining the battery.
    The phone turns on completely fine, I can check my email, send and receive emails, phone calls and can text but the camera flash light remains ON. I have tried everything and have even turned the flash OFF but it is not working.
    Has anyone else seen anything similar? I was reading up on posts and someone had a similar issue with BB Pearl and reinstalled the OS and it seemed to fix the issue.
    Please advise.

     Dont think the phone has had moisture exposure- strip on battery is still white... thanks
    The strip on the battery means nothing.
    There is a square white 1/4" sticker inside the device, normally if you remove the battery you will see it. That is the actual device Liquid Damage Indicator... and STILL, high humidity (not full moisture or liquid) can cause the issues you're describing. Keeping the device powered on, loading a new OS, removing and inserting the battery, can possibly only further damage the device.
    Moisture can come from laying a bathroom counter during a hot steamy bath or shower, in a gym locker, in a pair pants or shirt pocket while your sweaty during a run or workout, etc.
    IF there is a remote possibility of anything like that, remove the battery, and place the device and the battery in a bag of dry white rice for 3-4 days.

  • 6300 flashing blue lights when turned off!

    I've had a problem recently, I turn my phone off, and the blue lights flash quickly, and the phone is discharged by morning. I'm currently having to leave it on all the time and charge it.
    I've removed battery and sim and re-sat them.
    Any ideas?
    When I do turn it on again, it seems to freeze on the black screen saver for a while too.
    What error message are these flashes indicating?
    Thanks in advance...

    The notification lights are a red-herring, they normally flash when the phone is switched on/off.
    If your battery is not lasting, then you need to check that the battery itself is OK, and if so check this advice on maximising battery life:

    Hello there, Shantae2231.
    You may just want to try resetting your phone per the instructions in this Knowledge Base article (There is no data loss by performing this step):

  • I don't always hear or feel my phone when I'm in my workshop. Is there an app that can ring a bell or flash a light on and off when I receive a call or text?

    There are a number of hardware devices that you may want to look at. Some of them require that the iPhone be placed into a "base station" in order to work. Following is one set of possibilities: http://www.harriscomm.com/index.php/equipment/cell-phones-accessories/cell-phone -accessories/loud-ringers.html
    If you do an internet search for something like "ringer for cell phone in home" you will find a variety of others.

  • HT1535 I would like to move my songs from my ipod nano back on to my freshly reinstalled windows and iTunes.  Can that be done?  I turned off automatic syncing so I can charge up the ipod.

    I would like to move my songs from my ipod nano back on to my freshly reinstalled windows and iTunes.  Can that be done?  I turned off automatic syncing so I can charge up the ipod.  Help!

    You won't be able to, just by navigating out the iPod's photos folder in iTunes. You'll likely need the help of some sort of third party software to get the job done for you.  One thing you'll want to keep in mind about these photos is that they are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnail versions that were optimized for viewing on your iPod's Video smaller 2.5" LCD display.
    Here is one such product.

  • Ipod touch screen went black and then started flashing. Then the turn off slide comes up.

    Ipod touch screen went black and then started flashing. Then the turn off slide comes up. Restored multiple times and didn't work. Ipod works with Itunes fine (can put music and podcasts on the ipod), but can't take songs off of the ipod. Using windows xp and everything is up to date. Any ideas of how to fix it?

    I didn't know that it was posted three times. My computer didn't say that it posted anything.
    My ipod still syncs to itunes and I can put podcasts and music on my ipod, but I can't delete songs after I put them on the ipod. When I try to delete songs I try to delete it from the main music list on the ipod. It's also doing all the other stuff that I posted before. The screen will go black and then the power off slider thing shows up for a few seconds, then it'll show the unlock slider bar. Then goes black again. It will also do that when I have the ipod unocked and changing songs or playing a game. I've restored it to the factory default/new ipod and it still does the same thing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and then restored it again to the factory default and it's still doing the same exact thing. I checked and my computer is up to date.

  • Lumia 1020 focus assist light wont turn off

    lumia 1020 focus assist light wont turn off. i've done a hard reset and a soft reset. ive also drained the battery but the little round light continues to be turned on .
    i checked and it looks like ive still got warranty from nokia. will they still honour the warranty if ive updates the software?

    I have the same problem, I tested everything, hard reset, soft reset, using recovery tool to back to Cyan version, still the light is ON..  what is tyhe problem, it is ridicolous that Microsoft/ Nokia do not give an answer to this problem as many users have the same problem........

    Hi, alekswithkz. Just to verify, when you say hard reset, do you mean: Settings>About>Reset? If yes, you can try to download and use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool before considering sending the phone for repair.
    http://www.nokia.com/us-en/support/software-recovery/
    Note: The link is from Nokia US. If you are in another country, feel free to download the app from your local Nokia website.
    If the issue remains, it's best to have it examined by an authorized Nokia technician. This will also determine if the repair will be covered under warranty. Warranty period starts on the date of purchase. Please bring your receipt for warranty verification.

  • Apple wireless keyboard caps lock light wont turn off

    I have an apple wireless keyboard that came with my 2011 imac and up untill last month the caps lock light wont turn off even when i turn caps lock off and its draining my battery. usually the keyboard will turn off whenever the computer was off but now i have to turn the whole keyboard off everytime im not using it to save battery.

    It is probably faulty.  If you are close to one, I suggest you take it to an Apple store for diagnosis.

  • IPod Touch 4G screen flashes on, then backlight turns off. What do?

        On a trip to Guatemala my ipod touch backlight randomly stopped working. Sometimes when I press the power button it turns on like normal but then the light immediatly turns off. I can still faintly see the icons and such and the screen still works but I just cant see anything. Is there any fixes or will i have to replace the screen?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Slow, intermittent.  Sometimes bootable sometime not. Odd behavior.
    Sounds to me like a classic case of your HD failing.
    Your SMART status may still show verified, with no errors on the Apple Hardware Test, Disk Utility shows no problems on Disk Repair-  this is of no help.
    I trust you have a good back-up and a bootable clone.

  • Can a one please help me turn off auto play for Facebook the option is no longer in my  General settings  why is this ?

    Can a one please help me turn off auto play for Facebook the option is no longer in my  General settings  why is this ?

    And yet the link you posted only tells you how to do it on the Facebook App for Android. Nothing about the Facebook page is mentioned at all, or how to do it on an iPhone.
    With that said, and assuming you have the most up to date version of the Facebook App, you can now turn the auto play feature Off within the Facebook App itself.  Tap on the "More" icon on the bottom right, then scroll down to Settings->Videos and Photos->Auto Play. If Smart auto-Play is on turn it off. Then you can set the check mark on "Never Play Videos Automatically" which is the same as Off.

  • I can't turn off find my ihone, always show "there was a problem when canceling the registration of this iphone with icloud" please help me. i can't restore my iphone before turn off find my iphone

    i can't turn off find my ihone, always show "there was a problem when canceling the registration of this iphone with icloud" please help me. i can't restore my iphone before turn off find my iphone

    If you are the original owner of the phone and know the Apple ID and password that were used to activate it originally, and if you have an existing backup to restore from, you can force it into recovery mode (which will completely erase it) and restore it as explained here: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.  When you do you will encounter activation lock, and will have to provide the ID and password used to activate it originally in order to activate it again.  If you can't, you won't be able to activate and use it.
