Skype on Diamond

Has anyone tried Skype on their Diamond? Mine tries to run and gives me an error. I had the same problem when I upgraded my Tytn II to WM 6.1 and after that I installed Dyffy's version of WM and got it to work. Maybe HTC's Rom isn't designed for Skype???

skype not working
My skype is also not working on my diamond. I used the latest skype which I d/l from skype site a week ago.
Anyone got skype working? If so which version?

Yeah....
Not working...

Version problem
It worked fine on my (possibly) pre-release UK grey imported Diamond 1.34.831.1 ROM. Once I upgraded to the 1.37.707.1 ROM Skype no longer starts. Crashes NK.exe which is not a nice thing to do to the Kernel.

Do you happen to have a dump of this rom so we could perhaps analyze the differences?

I have read somewhere that Skype doesn't work on WM6.1, but your pre-release diamond had WM6.1 right? So the 6.1 compatibility issue is out of the question then...

damn it works on my good old htc 3300 but not diamond

I have skype working on all my kaiser roms so i will try to get it working on diamond not tested yet though

Hi,
I have skype working on HTC diamond and PDAVIET Diamond rom.

Hey guys, tried on my htc Diamond also, not working. It freezes the window when launching the application and i'm using Elite 2.0.

it's a WM 6.1 issue go to the skype support forum and see for yourself.

Skype on Diamond already solved ???

Maybe you find a working version anywhere in the net...

You could use fring in the meantime.
its free, skype is integrated and it works....

On my Diamond it works perfect. I have the icon in Programs. If you don't have it you can create a shortcut of skype from ,,programs'' folder in ,,windows - start menu-programs'' folder.

v.2.2.0.37 works great, got it from the Skype site

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.
For more details, visit

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..

Does it make also VoIP calls like fring?

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...

Hi,
I have just installed the latest skype on my kaiser and it is all working well, but can you not have video calls (through wifi) with the front camera i cant even see the other persons picture am i missing something or does it not support video?
Thanks
Jason

Correct, not supported.
Cheers

Does someone have an old .cab version of skype for my htc tytn II (2.2.0.38 or something like that I think)? Unfortunately I didn't keep the cab file...
The new version (2.5) is pretty much useless for me because it crashes instantly when making a phone call over wifi.
Thanks!

hi can you give me a skype download link?

www.skype.com ?

ye got 2 very old cabs here
SkypeForPocketPC.CAB
07/28/2008
and
SkypeForPocketPC_LowCPU.CAB
05/14/2006

I found a cab of the 2.2.0.18 version which works fine with my tytn. Thanks!

have you tried skype 3.0???? It works well with me without crashing, try it and maybe it would be better

www.skype.com would be good except that site is blocked here in UAE
anyone got a link or cab somewhere that works on tytn II (thats not on skype)

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).

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
