Following is the code for my app for a flash light
Its size comes out to be 1.4 MB which is too huge .
So i used progaurd to reduce size which ends up in 750 KB which is still huge as compared to code i am using.
Why the size is large ? and how to reduce it ? or i have made some mistake

You are extending AppCompatActivity, this means that your project includes Android Support Library v7, if you don't care about material look on old Android versions, you can simply remove it. Check your build.gradle file to see which libraries are included as those libraries will make your apk file bigger.

My objective is as simple as to have my own flashlight app; I have researched both the android developer site and stackoverflow quite thoroughly but seem to lack the connecting bits:
package my.torch;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.hardware.Camera;
import android.hardware.Camera.Parameters;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
/* public static Camera getCameraInstance(){
Camera c = null;
try {
c = Camera.open(); // attempt to get a Camera instance
}
catch (Exception e){
// Camera is not available (in use or does not exist)
}
return c; // returns null if camera is unavailable
}
*/
Camera mCamera;
CompoundButton mTorch;
Parameters camParams;
private Context context;
AlertDialog.Builder builder;
AlertDialog alertDialog;
public SurfaceView surfaceView;
public SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder;
public String flashMode = null;
/** A safe way to get an instance of the Camera object. */
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
surfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.mysurface);
surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();
context = MainActivity.this;
if(context.getPackageManager().hasSystemFeature(
PackageManager.FEATURE_CAMERA_FLASH)){
mTorch = (CompoundButton) findViewById(R.id.toggleButton1);
}
else{
// should use Dialog
// tell the user that he has no camera
//showDialog(context, FLASH_NOT_SUPPORTED);
}
final Camera mCamera = Camera.open(0);
mTorch.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
if (isChecked) {
Log.e("mTorch", "on");
Parameters camParams = mCamera.getParameters();
// params.setFlashMode( Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF )
camParams.setFlashMode( Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH);
mCamera.setParameters(camParams);
mCamera.startPreview();
flashMode = camParams.getFlashMode();
Log.e("mTorch", flashMode );
// The toggle is enabled
} else {
// The toggle is disabled
Log.e("mTorch", "off");
Parameters camParams = mCamera.getParameters();
// params.setFlashMode( Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF )
camParams.setFlashMode( Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF);
mCamera.setParameters(camParams);
mCamera.stopPreview();
flashMode = camParams.getFlashMode();
Log.e("mTorch", flashMode );
}
}
});
//mCamera.release();
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
if (mCamera != null) {
camParams.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH);
mCamera.setParameters(camParams);
mCamera.stopPreview();
mCamera.release();
}
}
}
The logging happily reports that the flashmode is torch or off as intended, however: The flash does not torch at all.
I read that I needed a surfaceview so I added it but with 0 height.
As I did collect bits and pieces here and there the code is probably not beautiful, my apologies.
Any idea on what I'm missing out?
(this is for a Nexus 5, 4.4.2)
Did you add permission to access camera in your manifest file?
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"
I have a problem in flash led. When I turn on flash after 2 seconds flash led off automatically. I don't know why it's behaving like that. Can anyone have any idea please help me.
public void cameraFlashOn() {
try {
camera = Camera.open();
Parameters params = camera.getParameters();
params.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_ON);
camera.setParameters(params);
camera.startPreview();
camera.autoFocus(new AutoFocusCallback() {
public void onAutoFocus(boolean success, Camera camera) {
}
});
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
for off the flash i used following code
public void cameraFlashOff() {
try {
camera.stopPreview();
camera.release();
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

I wanted to build a flashlight app using the following code.
It's working on a friend's HTC Desire HD, but it isn't on my RAZR and a friend's Galaxy Nexus.
I also tried the solution with focus_mode_infinity, but there's still no success.
package com.example.flashlight;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.hardware.Camera;
import android.hardware.Camera.Parameters;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
Camera camera = null;
Parameters parameters;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final Button OnOff = (Button)findViewById(R.id.Switch);
OnOff.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
if(camera == null) {
camera = Camera.open();
camera.startPreview();
parameters = camera.getParameters();
parameters.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH);
parameters.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_INFINITY);
camera.setParameters(parameters);
}
else {
parameters.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF);
parameters.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_AUTO);
camera.setParameters(parameters);
camera.release();
camera = null;
}
}
});
}}
I think FLASH_MODE_TORCH is not supported by RAZR, I've had the same issue with a customer reporting the same problem for one app (Flash not flashing).
What I suggest you is before setting the parameter to check if its supported:
List<String> flashModes = parameters.getSupportedFlashModes();
if (flashModes.contains(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH)) {
// Mode supported good to go
}
after setting parameters of the camera use the below method:
camera.startPreview();
here camera is your Camera object.
I'm learning how to program the video camera in android and wrote a very basic program (XML with SurfaceView and two buttons, one to start, one to stop video recording). Video Preview works fine, but after clicking the start_video button I'm getting an IllegalStateException in line 71 mediaRecorder.setVideoFrameRate(videoFramesPerSecond);:
IllegalStateException.<init>() line: 33
MediaRecorder.setVideoFrameRate(int) line: not available [native method]
CamtestActivity$2.onClick(View) line: 71
. I can't understand why this line is throwing this exception while the former line for example, does not.
Any hints? Thanks.

From the documentation for setVideoFrameRate():
Sets the frame rate of the video to be captured.
Must be called after setVideoSource().
Call this after setOutFormat() but before prepare().
It seems like you have not yet called setVideoSource() before you try to setVideoFrameRate(). Try setting the video source and see if that solves your problem.
I have one question that can we access android device camera's flash light
programmically.Is this possible to turn on and off flash light programmically?
please give me my answer .
thanks in advance.

You can do so by using Camera.Parameters.setFlashMode. See: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html
it is possible. first you have to get the properties of hardware camera.using below method.
String flattenString;
camera = Camera.open();
Camera.Parameters param = camera.getParameters();
flattenString = param.flatten();
where flatten can give u a parameter string with key value pair.
you have to split it by "," and find the flash-mode key and its value
then apply this parameter in below method
Camera.Parameters parameters = mCamera.getParameters();
parameters.set("Key", value);
where your key is "flash-mode"
and value is "On"
and then add this parameters to setParameters method and start your camera preview
mCamera.setParameters(parameters);
mCamera.startPreview();
your flash light is now ON.
