    private Camera mCamera;
    private boolean flash_ok=false;


@Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        flash_ok=getApplicationContext().getPackageManager().hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_CAMERA_FLASH);
        mOnBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.on_btn);
        mOnBtn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if(mCamera==null){
mCamera=Camera.open();
}
if(flash_ok){
processOnClick();
}else{
Toast.makeText(FlashLightActivity.this, "No Flash Light", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
       
        mOffBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.off_btn);
        mOffBtn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
processOffClick();

}
});
    }
private void processOffClick(){
        if( mCamera != null ){
            Parameters params = mCamera.getParameters();
            params.setFlashMode( Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF );
            mCamera.setParameters( params );
            mCamera.release();
            mCamera = null;

        }
    }

private void processOnClick(){
        if( mCamera != null ){
            Parameters params = mCamera.getParameters();
            params.setFlashMode( Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH );
            mCamera.setParameters( params );
        }
    }
@Override
protected void onResume() {
if(mCamera==null)
mCamera=Camera.open();
super.onResume();
}
@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
if(mCamera!=null){
mCamera.release();
}

super.onDestroy();
}
@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
this.finish();
super.onBackPressed();
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
if(mCamera!=null){
mCamera.release();
}
super.onPause();
}

}

Here is My Manifest File You can see in that Which Permission are Require for Flash And Camera.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      package="com.android.flashlight"
      android:versionCode="1"
      android:versionName="1.0"
      android:installLocation="auto">
