New App: FlipOFF

I've made a new app called FlipOFF that allows you to silence your phone by placing it face down. It includes options to:
* Disable and Enable the application
* Disable the radio (allows you to cancel all externally generated alerts while still allowing alerts and audio generated by phone - ie alarm,calendar,music,etc)
* Filter the alerts for SMS, Email/PIN messages, and phone calls

You will need the newest version of the CM library: CM
The app can be found here: FlipOFF

**Yes, it is only for the storm as its the only phone with an accelerometer. They removed the function to check the ambient light on the phones so there is no way to check for the phone being face down.**

Thanks CMY

Welcome to BBOS.

Thanks for taking the time to post this up. One question if you will. Do you know how well this works with the 5.0 OS's?

Thanks again

I do not know how well it works with 5.0 but I have not heard anyone that tested it say it does not work with the 5.0 OS.

Yes, it is only for the storm as its the only phone with an accelerometer. They removed the function to check the ambient light on the phones so there is no way to check for the phone being face down.

thanks CMY for that. i just flipped out seeing this app. lolll i have a minor problem on OS 5.0.0.130. whenever a phone or email or any message comes in even if profile is on silent a ring alert plays and i dont know how to fix it. Sometimes its difficult in the meetings to shut it down.
