I would like to talk on Skype like with normal phone calls speaker (not loud speakers).
I'm using T-Mobile MDA Vario / HTC Wizard.
And at work I would like to use skype like normal phone.
If anyone can help me thanks.
I have the same problem
it's working ok on headphones but that's not the same
You managed to get skype working? It was too choppy when I tried.
Did you try to overclock ??
I close all other aplications and set the clock to 252MHz.
Works realy good. The only problem i have is not very strong WiFi signl, reason- USB WiFi card

What I do is use the blue tooth toggle app I found somewhere on this forum to send all sound to my BT headset. So I use skype just like I do my regular phone calls.
here's the bt audio toggle...
FANTASTIC !!! I wasn't going to be able to pick up set of stereo phones for another week. THANK YOU ! THANK YOU ! THANK YOU !
The sound quality on Skype does not sound very good at all. I get frequent clicking sounds (every 5 seconds) and dropouts, my friends on other pda's say I saund very basey and the sound at my end is very is like the base has been turned almost to zeo and treble to full. I have tried Skype versions 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 but they are all the same. The headphones don't sound too bad when I listen to music so don't think its the headphones but can anyone recommend a better pair? When I switch to my Axim x61v, the skype (2.0) on that is 100% perfect so its not the connection.
One of my friends has an O2 HTC phone and the quality on his pda is perfect (running Skype 2.1). I tried his verson on the Kyser but its just as bad.
Anyone experiencing similar or can give me any suggestions?
same with tytn 11
Ive got the Orange tytn 11 and i install skype ver 2.2 on his and the quality was really bad.Im a big skype fan so im really dissapointed.Hope their is a fix around this.
Mine was rubbish too

skype also uses a lot of memory..so i found fring...it is awesome..i use it for sfype and voip..sip also.. you can download it for free and use for free...i uninstalled skype and use fring instead..it sign in to oyur skype account and make calls to other spype people or phones.. ohhh the sound quality is much better on my experience..

Hi,
Is the sound still outputting from earphone or HTC made something good and now we can hear it from the usual earpiece?
I mean, i would like to use SIP or Skype same way as a normal phone call, sounds coming out from the standard earpiece (not any headphone stuff).

A brief survey to sastisfy my own curiosity:
How often do you guys use these apps?
If so, do you find them functional?
Do you use Bluetooth Audio or stick it out with the speaker?
Do you use them on 3G, Wifi only, or even Edge?
For me qaulity is rubbish on both using wi-fi so I don't bother anymore
I agree, Skype sounded like poo over wi-fi, and fring doesn't even open on my phone anymore.
On HTC Herald, using Skype, the call quality was crap because first, I was with Tmobile and edge was too slow. I got the kasier tytn II, and switched to at&t. Skype call quailty was alittler better now with their 3g and wifi. But then I begain to learn about different radios frequencies and how they can significantly increase/improve your reception. My skype stutters very little and the call quality is very good over 3g.
I don't use it often (twice a week maybe) I mainly use it to save my (anytime) minutes during the day and it comes in handy with I want to make international phone calls. I may just upgrade to the $99/month (Unlimited calling) plan
But in a nutshell, I believe you can improve your Skype (or Fring) call quality by experimenting with different radios.
Bluetooth and skype? Something I don't recommend, but I prefer the wired head set with Skype.
Hope this helps
Looks like that fring was not prepared that WM 6.1 will appear. Everyone who has this version of WM is not able to use fring now. used to have fring over wife - quaility was fine. skype is heavy memmory eater so only tested it nothing else
I tried using 3G but the quality was crap.
Wifi works fine for me - I use Skype quite often at home.
I find that using the head set which came with my TyTN II offers far superior call quality than the speaker.

Did she Mind, your wife? And I'm not sure I totally understand your euphemism.
Just installed Skype on my Tilt. All went well, but it seems to only want to be on speakerphone. Also, my call to echo shows no microphone present. I looked for settings to change audio prefs and could not find any. Any suggestions?
I use Skype all the time for overseas calls on both my PC and Kaiser.
I am using Dutty's 6.1 Non Palmsms version and the call quality is fine.
Using Radio 1.64.08.21
So, can I use Skype to make outgoing calls to landlines and other non-skype cell phones? Can I use it to get incoming calls of the same nature?
I read somewhere that Skype and any/all other program will ONLY use the phone speaker. It seems that the only funtions that will use the ear speaker is the phone program. Unfortunately my spearkerphone on my ATT Tilt does not function well or at all. Apparently this seems to be a very common problem with the Tilt... I suppose I can still use Skype for text chatting.
Is this true? I was hoping I wouldn't have to sign up for any minutes with ATT if I had Skype

If you plug in the headset that came with your phone, Skype (Windows Mobile?) will use that instead. Call quality is much better for me using the headset.
I rebooted my router and got Skype to hear me. The quality is not so good with the speakerphone. Unfortunately the Tilt doesn't have a standard wired headset that I know of. I thought maybe the bluetooth headset might work, but it does not connect to Skype at all. It just invokes the voice command dialer...
^It doesn't? The Wing includes one!
I think there is a jack for a stereo headset but not sure which one is compatible... Will have to do some research.
On my kaiser, dutty's 6.1 ROM, fring works better than skype... call quality, connection timings, all are good.. maybe due to HSDPA..
I'm using Skype over HSDPA and WiFi and quite satisfy with it, voice clarity is good (using Sony 970 Bluetooth), good call handling, just don't try to use it over Edge

you need to get a headset that does both handsfree and headset profiles. I have the lubix stereo headphones and it works great both as wireless headphones and handsfree.
For the person thinking about just going with skype as voice, your limited to where you have good 3G connection.

you got fring to work on WM 6.1. what ver r u using?
Weird issue with new HTC ROM (version no. below) - anyone else got it or know a fix?:
If I make a BT call with WiFi on, the BT crackles and flits every second.
If I turn off WiFi it is perfect.
If I set WiFi to 'Best Performance', all BT devices are lost and disconnect.
If I set it to 'Best Battery' or the middle setting, BT devices reconnect.
VoIP calls via Bluetooth now crackle themselves to death, because such calls use BOTH Bluetooth AND WiFI simultaneously - shock horror!
(Updated post above with VoIP issue)
i was having the same exact problem, took me couple days to realize it was the wifi. Only thing ive been able to do(motorolla s99 stereo) is make sure my headset is FULLY charged before pairing. And (no fix here) i shut the wifi off when im in the field. There is a bug there for sure. Is it just too much for the phone to track the 3g, wifi, and duplex on the BT?

I have exactly the same problem. BT works great with my headset (Plantronics 8XX) and has good range and is very clear. My WiFi works great and has a good range BUT if I have both turned on my BT is useless. BT devices are not visible more that 30cm away and there is a major crackle even at less than 30cm. Took me a while to work out why my BT headset would not pair with my TyTn II and Plantronics could not help. Used to work with my previous TyTn II OK, so I did a hard reset and then BT paired fine. Then I realised it was simply that hard reset turned off WiFi so I wasted my time doing hard reset when turning off WiFi was solution.
I called HTC and they can't or won't help but they did say they would log it and look into it (do we believe them? ;0).
The BIG PROBLEM for me is using SIP/VoIP as this uses WiFi of course but because of front speaker issues on TyTn II it is very hard to use without a headset and sound it just not good enough most times to use on my unit. So BT headset is the answer but can't work due to this WiFi/BT issue.
I am going to try flashing various different radios this afternoon as some members said this may help but from what I have read on this forum it does not solve problem completely.
If not then it's back to my wired headset and looking like an 80's teenager when I am using VoIP.
Also I wanted to install Navizon and earn points driving around with my WiFi on but this would mean no BT headset so I can't do this.
This really is an annoying bug.
If anyone has a fix or has found something searching the forums that my searches have not found then pls let me know.
Thanks.
Hi I'd like to use my Kaiser as a wireless microphone (baby monitor function) and receive sound on my PC.
I've been thinking about using Bluetooth as well as WiFi connection.
Any Help?
Thanks
it would reqire a special made program to run on both the pda and the computer
the pda would have to be on all the time recording every sound and compress it to mp3 or something smaller then wav
and transmit it over the network to a program on the pc which would play store or alert you
basicly it would require a lot of programming
and unless you phone was being powered by ac
it would suck your batt dry very very very fast
There is a more advanced software for it, it's called Video Camera Plus but it streams video signal as well as the sound. The thing is it doesn't always work well on my kaiser and I don't need a video to be transmited.
Basically I'm looking for something simpler.

Hi bklonica,
i think i have found for what you have asked....take a look here. We will use that in hospitals for childs. To hold contact with the parents, where not network cam from axis is possible...

Skype? Install fring on it and call your computer. Disable the sound on Kaiser and keep it plugged in. If you have wifi it should work.
