So we have the Verizon NFL app apk out, which is pretty awesome. So I was wondering if it's possible to take their Skype app too? It seems kinda iffy since Skype only offers it for certain phones on Verizon, but it would be pretty awesome to have. Thanks.

Anyone working on getting the new Verizon NFL app to other Android devices?
Man I hope so! But the way the NFL is with "protecting the sheild" I wouldn't be surprised if the dev got a CAD letter before they even posted the hack! LOL I don't think Verizon would be too keen either considering it cost them upwards of 700 milion for the rights to publish such an app... But here's to hoping!
I had the sprint one, but as soon as it updated it stopped working, as you had to get the updated version of the app, which you couldn't do if you weren't on sprint
There is a link to it in the Nexus one App forums. Works fine on the Nexus One, but I can't get any video on the G1. DL it, give it a shot. If anyone can get the video working that would be awesome.
Here you go guys

Can someone using OpenEclair or equivalent test this? I think it's more of an OS issue rather than hardware.
no it's not the OS, I've tried it on a couple 2.1 and 1.6 roms and still no video
I think it's frickin beast. I love it!
How to get Google talk or call to work in other places apart from the US?
Sent from my X10i
I think you mean google voice? there's no such thing as 'call', and Gtalk is their IM service which is available world-wide. There are some methods available, but judging by people's comments they are extremely unreliable. I'd like to think that when someone contacts me via phone or SMS, *they will be able to contact me*, for me it's not worth messing with even though I'd really like to use GV.
Well if the a person studies abroad and has to call back home its gonna be pretty expensive. I installed skype but it has. Horrible voice quality.

There was an app in the market place via which one can make video caller rather phone calls for free via ggoogle voice. But they mentioned that its available only to US customrrs
I think this is only available to US customers, you can only call through gtalk to gtalk just like Skype. Gtalk call is very limited.

maybe soon Gtalk will release a better version but right now we have to deal with it. You can just use Skype for the meantime.

Hardly, I've using video calling on Gtalk via iChat, it works very well.
You can't call a service crap just because it doesn't offer a feature that you want (which it never advertised).
Well Google voice only runs in America.

Huh? I have perfect call quality with both google talk voice, and skype. You prob had bad internet at that moment. Maybe something updating.
If it's a girl, calling would be the classical way of doing it, but video chatting might be a little better... I don't know.
Yeah I guess

As far as I know, it is not supported by the skype software. Fring used to be able to do it, but skype blocked their client.

Thank you for the reply, I'm using Tango now, tested and works. Too bad Skype doesn't work, wondering why actually.
Would be nice to know if those providers having a contract with Skype actually do enable video...

That is the one thing that is driving me nuts. Having features that should be able to run on any carrier being exclusive.
Figured out a way, not the best but it works:
Download IP Webcam and configure properly, it will work with skype, but higher than 320x240 size it will most probably crash.

F**** skype, use oovoo. It's at the moment the onliest software where you can do videocalls between the tab and a pc (it can do other devices as well)
Hope skype looses enough users, it's really anoying that they still have not solved it. So give oovoo a chance...

Hmm... currently checkin out a couple of SIP clients with Video support, stating that its possible to connect with skype, just waiting for my account and then I'll let you know.
Edit: If there's really no solution, I might open a thread and see if a few dudes can come up with something ,I use to code TCP/IP stuff on Unix, but not (yet) familiar with the Java crap, as I'm not a fan of that language. Will checkout NDSK tonight, any developer reading this, feel free to contact me in case you'd like to do something together, alone I will not start, I'm stuffed with work as a freelancer.
Looks like those of us holding out for skype to dump a good release for android w/ video is getting farther away, Looks like Microsoft is buying (or has closed the deal) Skype for 8.5 Billion, bet they don't release Android or Iphone updates all that often now...
Now were did I put that copy of openvoip

Ughhhhh... hey maybe they will make an Android version... and say that WP 7 is more open.
This makes me a sad panda
Just heard they did buy it. Looks like google will have to find a different app to use instead of skype.
hmm... MS and their big bags of money won again...
i know Google was also trying to make the deal with Skype... but seems like Google's pockets were not deep enough
... that's it, i'm deleting all my skypes accounts and uninstalling it from all my PCs and phones
I just hope they don't integrate it with live....

I'm also concerned about the Linux version, and I hope MS won't change anything to make the current clients incompatible...
I've used Fringe with my Infuse, but it doesn't seem to want to work with the Thrill.
Wikipedia works well, but is complicated to use.
Has anyone used any other video call apps that work across platforms? My wife refuses to give up the iPhone 4.
Try using tango

i tried using tango but i dont know what the deal is with that app lately...it refuses to change to the correct camera on atleast one of the phones at all times...ive tried with an atrix, iphone 4, infuse, thrill...all with same results. atleast one will not change to the right camera
