I have it set to turn on in lockscreen when i short hold the sleep button


sometimes it works & sometimes it doesnt

I have to reboot in order for it to work

the light comes on for a second like a flash then it doesnt work, i have to reboot, respring doesnt fix it


iphone4 4.1 limewire or lime something whatever i forgot the name


edit and no i dont have another flashlight app installed

i removed the sbsettings springflash add-on but still same problem

I also reinstalled springflash no go either after a day or two same problem
 
Might be something to do with Activator (assuming you have this installed). I have Limera1n on 4.1 and have no issues with my SpringFlash. Might wanna check to see if you have another program set to launch using the same activation method too.
 
yea ofcourse i have activator it comes with sbsettings & other things as a dependency




should i reinstall activator
 
This actually happened to me recently. I did the same exact thing you did but I had springflash when I double click the clock on the lockscreen. It was working perfectly a couple of days ago and now nothing. I can't get it to work on the lockscreen even if I change how I activate it. Kind of a weird problem

Had a similar problem with springflash on iOS4.0.1. With the screen locked, it was hit or miss. With the screen unlocked it worked alot better (near 100%) but that kind of defeated the purpose.

It was one of the few JB apps I didnt reinstall when the 4.1 JB came out.
 
Mine works for a while then all of a sudden when I go to activate it, it doesn't work. All I have had to do is restart the phone and it works again. Not sure why.
