?????????????????????????????

the build in phone dial pad has video chat
you can phone anyone with another video chat capable cell phone

???????????????????????????????
Pretty sure with bell they have a different package for video calling I don't know how it all works you'll have to visit your providers website - just google it I can't post links yet.
As for third party apps there is a few I believe, I use Tango it works the best for me for the very little video calling I do, its still not the greatest yet. You can video call other galaxy users, iphoners, and I'm sure other people who's phones are good enough.
I'm sure skype will have something and google will also just don't know timelines or stuff like that, google it

you forgot to mention Fring

Whate are my options for video conferencing ?

Hello,
What are the options to make a video conference over wifi (NOT 3G). ?
Thanks
*bump* anyone ?
i have search enough the only one
that promises that is AGILE MESSENGER but is not free
PS
if you find something more let me know ..PM
I'm unsure of Skype Mobile and, being that I have the Tilt, can't try it out, but Skype for PC/Mac allows video conference calling for free between skype users as well as iChat for Mac and AIM for Windows.
no options as of yet,some claim ms portraint but but no good since most of us don't have the 2nd camera on the front to be used for the conference anyways
Sorry to bug in but am I missing something here? The guy is asking for Video conference. I do have Skype but I don't have an option for Video... What am I missing?
Probably nothing. I didn't know if Skype Mobile had a video conference option or not (Skype for PC and Mac does). I guess it doesn't. Oh well, future version maybe.

I tried Skype Mobile but it is not allowing to use the built-in camera of my Kaiser.
It won't. I checked on Skype's website. Video conferencing is not supported by Skype Mobile.

Video chat software?

Hello guys,
this is my first post, so a little about me and my device:
I'm from Italy and I've got my Tytn II (Vodafone PDA 1615) few days ago.
I've already got rid of the original Vodafone ROM and loaded the updated HTC WM6.1 ROM.
I'm very happy with it and it allows me to do almost everything I need to for my job (checking emails, browse the Net, check my office servers and if needed, connect remotely to them).
I was thinking that it would be very nice to have a video chat software using the front camera as a webcam, do you know if something like that exists?
Thanks.

Skype Instead?
Does anyone have Skype working on the kaiser?
The only reason that I suggest Skype instead of VZOChat is because the other person has to have VZOChat - more people have Skype.

AFAIK Skype doesn't do video calls from pocket pc's.

FRING video chat - can we get it to work on out G1s?

The app says that there are hardware limitation and that my phone can't use the video chat.
However... I'd like to push my limits. So does anyone know if it actually looks at my hardware or if it looks at the what kind of phone it is? Either way, can we trick the app into thinking that I'm using another phone or different hardware? Or any fix at all really to get video chat on the g1?
Thanks.
By default the application disables the video call option unless your hardware is on the list of supported devices. This doesn't mean you can't turn it back on yourself though.
In the options menu simply check the box to enable video calling and voila. Tested this theory myself on my G1 earlier this evening. Video worked without any problems on a skype call.

wow, thanks for the reply... I just tried it again myself... yep it works.
For some odd reason, I clicked to enable video chat before and it wouldn't work. Oh well... it does now

[Q] Is native Wi-Fi video calling on Galaxy S possible?

Hi.
Is it possible to do native video calling on the Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) using only the Wi-Fi connection?
I'm running 2.2.1 at the moment and everytime I try to use the video call function, it's telling me that it requires a 3G connection.
Is it possible to modify this native video calling app in order for it to work with Wi-Fi?
Thanks for answers
Fring app can do this, but its not available now. If I dont remember wrong, in 08.2010, Fring has Skype video calls over 3g and wifi
Check out Tango
install skype it works great.

Not yet but soon.
Anyway there is some third party alternatives (not native i agree but working):
yahoo messenger
Tango
oovoo
yahoo messenger can do it.
Thanks for the suggestions.
So what plethora of unnecessary and suspicious permissions do these suggested 3rd-party apps require?

As far as I know, skype does not work on any Tegra 2 device but I might be mistaken because a developer could have enabled skype to work on Tegra 2 devices. Gtalk video does work I believe, check out Rusty's link about it working.
Oh come on, this question comes up every 3 days and always a new thread

gtalk tested again , it works now
thanks all for the reply..
anyway, i use search with keyword skype video call and gtalk in Q&A forum only..
sorry for inconvenience cause.
still testing Rusty one for gtalk (update: it's works).. skype no hope until they make it work for tegra2 devices..
Not an inconvenience dude. We were all new to scene one, I still am to an extent. The one which Rusty has linked works good. For skype, we just have to keep bugging them to add implementation for Tegra 2 devices.
