Skype 2.0 for Froyo

Does anyone know how to modify the OS to report that the phones one of the very poor selection the lazy people at skype could be bothered to make it work with?
Or would it require a mod to the app itself (same question who knows how to do this?)
Thanks in advance

Maybe modifying the build.prop? Just a guess!

Yep. Can confirm. Crashes a couple of seconds after you hit Sign in.

The problem is that the contained native code .so's seem to contain NEON instructions which the Tegra 2 can't execute.

If everyone took that attitude, XDA forums and the like wouldn't exist because we'd all be sat waiting for HTC / LG / Skype etc to update software...
These forums exist because the developer community can usually make things work better than the software vendors or before the software vendors.
This has already been hacked to work on the Galaxy S and S2.......

[APP][MOD]Skype 2.0 Video Mod to work with Epic4G! (Mobile to Comp)

Skype For Android Gets Video
Widespread 3G and cheap Wi-Fi routers have made video calling popular. This has helped applications such as Fring get millions of users in very little time. To catch up with the competition, Skype has now released its version 2.0, capable of video chat for Android.
Right now, Skype 2.0 will only work on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) devices with front-facing cameras. The list of compatible devices includes the HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo, Sony Ericsson Xperia pro, and the Google Nexus S. The company is also working on a plan to cover devices that have currently been left out. The application will work with Wi-Fi as well as 3G. It reportedly supports PC-to-mobile calls, which gives it an edge over the competition. According to Skype, the app also features a completely revamped UI.
If you happen to have a Gingerbread device, download Skype 2.0 here (see original article for link) . Otherwise, check out the following video.

I have found the Market APK does not allow video then, stumbled upon this thread from the i9000 forum.
Skype 2.0 / video-call patched to work with SGS/SGS2 and many other devices!
Mad Props to theos0o
make sure to give him thanks!
Verified this working from Bonsai B12 based on EF02 leak, called a laptop video was great over 3g.

Nice, cant wait for official gingerbread even more

Sweet - this one lets me log in with 4G, the market one didn't.

I feel like a noob for asking, but it downloads as a .rar, how do I install?

Skype/MyVerizon .apk

Hey guys,
Hoping someone out there has the .apk files for Skype w/video and MyVerizon.
I had Skype with video working but once I reflashed a new nightly, I lost video.
Thanks for the help,
Drew
I'm using Synergy July 9th nightly BTW.

I'll tinker with them later. Thanks for the help, dude!!

Says the same for me. Skype normal not mobile worked for me though. I tried an older version of skype mobile and it does the same. The first date was 4/30 and the second was 3/13 I think. Maybe it has to do with your current data plan?
I read this.
That is not correct actually - with Skye Mobile for Verizon you would be able to use skype over Verizon's network - I used it for over 1 yea without any issues. Until I got the thunderbolt. Skype needs to make that app compatible with the new phone. AND QUICKLY!!!!!!!!

Try searching. It's also in my Sig.

Why thank you I didnt search because I didnt know that. I just know I had some skype moblie .apk's. Then I search google and found out that it didnt work for the thunderbolt. Give me more time and I would have found you post. Atleast I was putting forth the effort to help.

I can confirm that Video chat works flawless over Wifi, and even tethering 3g & 4g from my HTC EVO onto my Xoom, it works flawless.
