Turn on Flash as Light on Blackberry

I am new to BlackBerry application development and trying to make a simple application to turn my flash light on as a torch. I know there are several applications that do this already, but I would like to try do it on my own.

I have installed eclipse and all the necesary add on to get my development environment running. I have also successfully create the stock standard hello world application.

I am however struggling to find out how to do this. I have been reading through the API documentation and started playing with FlashControl, VideoControl and SnapshotControl.
These however don't seem to expose methods to do this.

I know through the video camera I am able to go to options and turn the flash light on and this is exactly what i'm trying to mimic.

The code i have used so far which seems to just set the camera flash to force on is:

Player p = javax.microedition.media.Manager.createPlayer("capture://video");
p.realize();
p.start();

FlashControl flashControl = (FlashControl) p.getControl("javax.microedition.amms.control.camera.FlashControl");
flashControl.setMode(FlashControl.FORCE);
