Bad news if you want to run Skype - HTC Breeze

Tried running Skype on the Breeze and it crashes when a call connects !! Looking around it looks like Skype for Smartphone requires ARM v5 instruction set to be implemented in the processor which the Samsung CPU in the Breeze doesn't have (v4)

Not true
Sorry but Skype works fine here, I'll quote HTC europe website:
The Skype application requires large resources and memory from the device. If other applications are running in the background and taking a large portion of the memory available for programs, Skype may not be able to start. In order to free memory for Skype close as many applications as possible from Settings > System > Memory > Running Programs.

But didn't you try to run skype on your mteor? I try to do call with skype beta 2.2 for smartphones. It doesn't work.
Look at http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=71594

Yes
Yes I tried and yes it works, no problems here.
I use it when it is attached to my laptop (ActiveSync providers network connection)

Then try another ROM or maybe someone has this as a CAB.

Thanks for your response. If i install another rom, will i lose all my existing settings/programs/ and contacts?
And also where can I get other roms from? (Sorry to sound stupid, but just like to be double sure).
Thanks in advance!!1
Also no RPD build-in for me!!
Just install thisone, work perfect
Okay I have this installed on my diamond and have a few questions.
Im remoting onto a vista laptop, Im connecting okay.. however no matter what I set in the remote desktop mobile options, I cannot see any mapping for my handheld device to transfer files. Ive tried My Computer, Ive tried Network.. nothing. Why? Any advice?
Secondly, the pocketnow video demonstrating remote desktop mobile being run on the diamond in landscape mode. I see no option for this.. how can it be done?
Thirdly, if you run remote desktop mobile in full screen you seem to lose access to the disconnect button and SIP. Any suggestions?
The CAB file works great for me, but it's not possible to access the telephone's memory through the explorer on the remote machine, like described here: http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=news&id=5454
So it's not possible to get music from home for example... Does anyone know, why? Of course it's possible to put the requested files into a apache-folder and download it using opera, but thats not the best way.
I didn't see the message from "darthbane2k", but my questions are the same
I'm guessing the CAB file on the previous page is an older version with less features. Parhaps one from WM6, not WM6.1?
+1 for someone who would like the cab file for the latest-and-greatest Remote Desktop client for WM6.1
..am currently looking at two Diamonds (my now TLR2-based test unit and my 1.37.401.3-based stock production unit) and neither have it installed, however I do vaguely remember seeing it a while back on he test unit which originally was a HK import and thus old ROM. Guessing now removed (in some markets at least)?
Cheers.
Nope.. I definately have the new version as the allow device mapping is in the options. Even when ticked, I still cannot see my mapped device when connecting to a remote computer (Vista home premium)
It works fine on my diamond, both within the LAN as well as per 3G. However is there a possibility to get keyboard to be able to enter things as well?

Yup, it's plain WM6, not 6.1.
WM6.1 RDP
It did not work for me either.
So I started a petition on this blog http://max.zamorsky.name/2008/11/04...bile-into-touch-diamond-and-all-current-roms/ to collect comments as a means to persuade HTC and Microsoft to include RDP in every ROM by default.
They seem to misunderstand who their lead-users are...
Please comment to help me make our lives easier.

Dude relax and search.
Use Fring (free and works great) while Skype Corp. Designs skype that will work for WM6.1. Its not about the Diamond.
thanks both of you, i´ll try that app.
Ive tried Fring and I can confirm it does indeed work very well.
I use it for logging into Skype and its excellent. Thatll do for now! (personally I think its better than skype, doesnt seem to be as resource intensive)
Spot on! Cheers!
im posting with my diamond & using fring in the background. it's working great.love fring & love my diamond even more!

does anyone have a working cab for fring on kaiser?

Hi everyone. I downloaded fring from their site and installed it. the application opens half way and then hangs. i would appreciate your help. thanks
I use fring almost everyday and have used it on many different roms. This is the cab that I use for it. I've uploaded it to my online drive. This link will be active for a week after that it will expire.
I hope it works for you.
what is fring?
Re: fring
fring is basically a IM-combo software that supports Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, Skype, ICQ & others IM.

the link is bad
can you post the cab? or send me another link? thanks
http://www.fring.com/download/
I just downloaded Fring from their site the other day and it works fine with my set-up. To tell you the truth though I been using slick from www.lonelycatgames.com and it seems to use less resources and has a better UI in my opinion.

The current version has problems with some WM6.1 ROMs. They are aware of it, but aren't officially supporting 6.1 yet.

I've got the stock ROM as well, and have tried installing it twice with no luck. It acts like it is trying to connect but never does. Palringo works fine, but I wanted to try this out because everyone seems to like it. I guess I'll wait until they get the 6.1 issues ironed out.
same problem here on htc diamond 6.1
it gets stuck in loading..

touch wood

Got the cab and installed on my tilt and g/f touch diamond. She has the default rom which came with it. My Tilt has now gone back to Orange default rom.
Fring seems to work fine so far on both although we have yet to use all the options and at present, only use the messanger part.
Try the Fonwar Instant Messenger
Why don't u try the Fonwar Instant Messenger, its support all the Phones type...u can Download FRee here...

Can I use the second cam with Skype or MSN

As I just discovered that my providor doesn't support videocalls I would like to try to use the second cam whit Skype or MSN, anybody got this working?
Thanks in advanced
Willem
Hi,
No current windows live mobile client supports any (at least not realtime and integrated cam solution as far as i am ware.
You could however look into microsoft portrait, last version is Portrait_PPC_3.1_Beta.msi. its pretty outdated however and i dont think it will be developed, at least not in its current form, any longer.
We must install a program that follows the commands of the actions when the certain program is openned.Then someone has to install the program on HTC Touch PRO and to plug the TV-out cabela and to follow what commands it does.Then we can see which files have started and to transfer them to HTC Touch Diamond.
i have tried microsoft portrait and it did not work for me. also it was not using 3g camera.

My network is 3G and even HSDPA and thats the reason why I don't understand that there is no aplication which lets us use the camera under VOIP, that my providor doesn't I can understand thats just a commercial reason, but for Skype or MSN or whatever eplication it could be a killer app.

Skype

I am in need of a skype cab that would work with my tilt. I tried searching for it but couldnt find one that would install on the device. I would need one that supports the skype out function.
I would appreciate a link since i am only able to search and download from my phone in the curent location I am in.
Thanks

As you may know skype will not longer support Windows Mobile and Windows Phone. I'm a heavy skype user and the service will be only supported to actual windows users just for the rest of this 2010.
FYI - here's the latest cab that skype released some months ago (this is the version that I personally use).
http://www.4shared.com/file/AJ1zu_TV/SkypeMobile.html
I hope that helps
I used fring on my Kaiser for skype support, might be worth looking at (link in my signature)
I use it on my Touch Pro as routes sound to telephone ear speaker.
Kaiser fring download: http://www.fring.com/download/proce...=HTC&mhandset_type=Tytn+2&email=Email+address
Happy I bumped into this, I am a fan of fring also, occasionally though I need to add a contact to skype or authorize a new contact. I haven't found a way to that with fring.
Thanks
Thanks for posting these replies.
I could not download the skype application with my phone. Rapid share wouldn't let me download it from my phone. And now has been downloaded too many times to try from a computer.
Fring worked great with skype the first day. But now has been blocked.
Any other ideas.
Jason
