Torch giving runtime error on Android 6.0

HI,

In my application I am using torch functionality and for that I am using dk.napp.flashlight module. But with Android 6.0 devices it is giving runtime error as

Uncaught error: Fail to connect to camera service. When I click torch and using torch.turnFlashLight();

Please help, also let me know if any additional information is required.

Thanks,

Prakhar

Totally broken as of 3.4.0, Android 5.0, and iOS 8

This seems to be an Android 5.0 and iOS 8 issue*

Android reports proper behavior with the isFlashLightOn() method but does not activate the light with the appropriate methods.

iOS does not report proper behavior with isFlashLightOn() (always false) and does activate the light.
