Can we Skype on this thing ? Can't find the app in the market
I downloaded the apk and the app runs smooth. The only thing is no video chat. Voice calls work great though.

We basically want to be able to video chat with our grandkids. They have an ipod touch. CS representative told me today that Tango from the marketplace was an app for both the ipod and the Streak. Guess we will be using that.
Also, yahoo messenger has video chat capabilities. Maybe since I'm an old grandma I'm the only one who doesn't know this stuff, but I'm posting here in case it will help others.
I would ultimately love to have Skype with video and be able to use that at all times instead of having to use a different program for every video call we want to make.
The iphone has skype video. And from what i read android should have it soon as well.

So can the streak 7 use skype to make voice calls? That would fit the missing element if we have voip.
Hope video chat can be avaiable on android device soon.
I use yahoo messanger for video chat. Its just you cant use the front camera only back.

Hahaha.....yea tru!!!
I'm gonna run to evo page lets check it
As of right it seems that none of the Video calling apps work with 2.3 at the moment. It'll be a little bit before devs get an update out. I assure you that it's not just the video apps working, but other apps as well. It's the same thing that went down we first got froyo.
Tango
Try Tango, It also works cross platform, to iPhails and CPU's...
I tried yahoo, aim, tango and qik. They all don't work...I hope they do something about this soon

I can't wait for the Google Talk Video Chat For now, I guess we need to wait for updates to Tango, Qik, etc.
Here is Tango's official announcement: http://feedback.tango.me/tango/topi..._facing_camera_on_your_nexus_s?from_gsfn=true

Hi there.
Do you know some applications for video conference using the front camera ?
Thanks a lot !
Edit :
- Fring
- ooVoo
Take picture of yourself. That's about it. Very useful, isn't it?
The latest ooVoo client works in portrait mode for tab-to-PC conferencing.

Tango. There's also an iPhone Tango app so you can video chat with the rest of the world.
I know people who work for Telus here in Canada and they were told skype video for Android will be out very soon and I believe it because they are advertising skype video on their nexus s which will be released Friday. That will make use of the front camera!

OP: Absolutely nothing. I suppose I could use it for Vid-conf, but who really does that? It's the most unwanted technology for the last 10 years.... even worse than MS Bob.
Oovoo, tested and approved.

10 years? More like 20. I remember seeing video-phones at shows when I was a young kid, there's a good reason they never caught on.

Skype with video for Android looks like it's imminent. May finally find a use for the front facing camera. The only time I video chat is via skype so this could be a good move, though the video quality of the front-facing camera doesn't do the idea justice...
This is cool, any ETA from when SGT users will be available to get the new skype?

on my GT, Yahoo Messenger mmakes use of the back camera only. there's no option to swtich to the front camera.
ooVoo doesn't work as well. i can make calls but it doesn't show any video. the weird thing with ooVoo is that when i try to select my device, it says that the model that i have isn't supported. maybe because i'm using the Wifi version only?
My reason for buying the galaxy tab was so my wife and i could vieo chat while away on business. I am having a hard time finding a solution. Any help

I have tried using Fring, however, the picture quality seems too dim. Also, when I'm holding on the tab to chat, the shakiness of the image cause dizziness to me, so I uninstall it.
I'd still rely on my laptop for video chat. I used Skype for conversation and message instead. To enhance quality for voice chat on skype, you can get a bluetooth headphone instead of the stock earpiece.
I have tried Fringe, Tango, Qik and others non are really good! at all!!!!!!
ooVoo......it works great....
I satisfied using Qik on my T-mobile Tab via Wifi. The Tab came with it but you can also get it from Market.
It was used to communicate with AT&T Tab. It has also video mail service allowing you to send and receive video messages. Quality of video and audio is very decent.
Skype promised to release their Android video chat soon as well as Google Talk - video on the next Android release.

Any way to video call a Windows 7 computer?
I want to video chat with my wife and kids when I work evenings and weekends but there doesn't seem to be a solution for that
The Mrs has an X10 mini Pro and one kids has the old iPod with no front camera so I cannot see them which defeats the object of it

I don't know what YOU'RE doing wrong but the newest version of ooVoo on MY Samsung Galaxy Tab (T-Mobile) works great doing video chats to ooVoo on 2 different laptops at my home (one XP and one Vista Ultimate).
It ain't lies baby....it's success....
I had a few problems with the Qik video chat that came installed on my T-Mo tab, but when I contacted their customer support they sent me another version that has worked flawlessly for me.
I have also heard that Oovoo works good and seems to be the only one that will work for PC to Tab video chats. My Qik only works with mobile devices.
hi. can you post on mirror link for the application (mac os x), because in this country, the website is not accesible ...thanks
yeah, i remember reading something about how they still havnt even started work on it. but that was like 2 months ago

Beta version is the only one I see on the market, and "newer version" nowhere to be found in their site either so probably still sucks...
Unless if someone wants to throw us an apk for the new one... orrrr is it only for tegra devices?

I have few complaints with oovoo...those that said it sucks either work for the competition or haven't had enough real world experience with mobile video chat.

Anyone figured out how to do cross-platform video chatting with the DS7? I know qik just updated their app so it works for us now, but I really want to be able to chat with my wife who only has a laptop. Wifi is fine.
Also, does google support video chat with the DS7?

Have u tried fring, not sure if it will work.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App
fring, qik, skype: nope.
oovoo: it's not video chat unless you can see the video while you're chatting.
anyone have any other ideas? I assume that this will be possible in honeycomb. Anyone have any idea how long that will take? Gah. Not impressed with this thing so far.
Whats the best video messaging app. Right now Im using Tango to video chat off a Galaxy Tab and Thunderbolt. But its got some bugs.. Its really staticy. Does anyone recommend another video app. I got the tab last week and gave it to my girlfriend so we can chat while shes away on business, she's in new york while im in chicago but we can only see eachother for about 15 mins then we gotta talk off the phone cuz there is so much static, and delay.
Im hoping someone has an ace up their sleeve because that would be awesome
I used Tango last night, but the guy I was testing wiyh said my image was maginified way too much. All he could see was my eye and nose.
Try oovoo. It's working good for me over wifi.

Ive heard that from a few people. I use the thunderbolt and i haven't had that issue, luckily.
I'm using vtok as well it works over google talk an works from tab to pc/mac
I'd tested tango and oovoo.
Both dont work fully with Gingerbread 2.3.3.
The video of the frontcam is 90 degrees turned.
The video and audio quality is better with oovoo.
The audio quality with tango is terrible.
The only one working with froyo is skype together with qik which is from skype.
Together working without problems and with good video

alot of people like to knock it but I've tried many different video messaging apps, but I still find the Qik video app the better of all the ones ive tried. Also tried yahoo messenger video chat, works ok but I dont use yahoo enough to use it.
Im gonna give a shot to vtok, are there any other solutions for tab to pc/mac? I really need this to talk to my family in mexico, none of my family relatives has data plan in their phones is just way too expensive and slow unlike the U.S.

I like oovoo. It works well for me.
IMHO Skype dropped the ball big-time by not including video (& sms) for android. I'm using ooVoo. I'm pretty sure it's the only app that allows video calling from android to PC. When it works, it works great - even on 3G. But it has been giving problems these last few days. However, the support that I've received from them has been good. They haven't figured out what the problem is yet, they're looking into out & their responses have been quick.
