There is no flash function for this device as yet. It might come in a later update, but don't put too much hope in it.

you only turn on n off the light from the main and it will remain always on/off.

It was said that in AOS 2.1 onwards, it will allow you to use the flash light a normal camera. But how true is it i cannot confirm

There is an app called Vignette that allows you to use the camera light more like a flash but it may not be available to you if you have no access to the android market. Other than that it is a matter of waiting for the 2.1 update and hoping they have improved the settings for this.

Suze, correct me if I'm wrong, but there was no mention of this flashlight upgrade in the leaked roadmap, right? If that is so, we can only hope it is in that video upgrade.

Sorry, but I am currently not in the mood to get anyone's hope up for nothing, especially after that end-September fiasco SE made.

Yes, that is unfortunate. The phone is certyainly far better when one has access to the Market.

sorry to hear that.

But you can always try other sites with full ad-supported apps...

I'll give you a few to begin with, hope it elevates some of your Market-pain.

www.getjar.com

www.appbrain.com

www.androidzoom.com

These sites should cover most if not all of what Market has.

I just installed the 2.1 update in my x10 and I can confirm that the flash still needs to be manually turned on and off.

I also have an email from SE saying that the update would include "flash support." so they are total liars too.

how can a company release a phone onto the market with a camera that just doesn't work properly is beyond me, and why are we all not making more of a fuss about it.

I can't wait for my contract to be over, so I can move away from SonyE and T Mobile.

They won't fix it, don't hold your breath.
