How To Find Flashlight Feature Is Available Or Not In Device < = Sdk 4

I used to find the flashlight is available or not using this code context.getPackageManager().hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_CAMERA_FLASH); but this code is support for s

Solution 1:

Android SDK has Camera class.. you can try getFlashMode method .. If method return null then flash is not support...

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html#getFlashMode()

I have not tried it,

Solution 2:

Try this:

public boolean hasFlash() {
        if (camera == null) {
            returnfalse;
        }

        Camera.Parameters parameters = camera.getParameters();

        if (parameters.getFlashMode() == null) {
            returnfalse;
        }

        List<String> supportedFlashModes = parameters.getSupportedFlashModes();
        if (supportedFlashModes == null || supportedFlashModes.isEmpty() || supportedFlashModes.size() == 1 && supportedFlashModes.get(0).equals(Camera.Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF)) {
            returnfalse;
        }

        returntrue;
    }
