I agree FRING is a Must have app.
I'm usually logged in to Googletalk, Skype & SIP @ all times
Thanks kang.t7, It is good to have mobile VoIP and SIP. I will try to update this thread with any new news ie any more additions of more alternatives like Nimbuzz which is not a complete VoIP app. just yet.

Can anyone pull the Skype APK from Market, so that us non-VZW customers can try it out and see if it works? I hate that it is exclusive. And im not sure if its considered "warez" since it's a free app, but subject to carrier exclusivity. Can anyone shed light on that latter part?
I would but I cannot find it on the Market, even following the QR link...
IDK if it is because I am on 2.1 leak. But I am on verizon.
it appears only those with less than 2.1 can get this app
Has anyone tried to load the 2.1 APK?
Anyone want to post the skype apk so we can use it?
I am on the verizon network and I rooted my phone as well. I have used fring and nimbuzz which both work with skype but fring is clearer for whatever reason. Give them a try, both are free just requires registration.
VZW Skype
I just tried to get Skype on my rooted 2.1 and failed also. Stock 1.5 phone worked fine.
Thanks to huckdogg for the link I wil pass it on

F.Y.I. verizon's integration into skype program wil not let you use skype for united states calling so if you wanted to cut out some of your minutes you cant. Try using fring or nimbuzz which integrate skype into them. Personally I use fring calls are clear.

There is a thread about this in the Themes / app section of the Eris board.... Skype will currently ONLY run on ERIS 1.5.... you CANNOT currently run the apk on a G1, even if its rooted... it will say "skype can only be used on Verizon Wireless Phones"
I'm on 2.1 V .5.5 with root and it still wont work... we gotta wait until another updated version is released
Here is the forum:

it's an application only for Three UK users.
it allows you to call any number or contact from skype through a normal gsm call.
so it doesn't use any of your data for VOIP and you can use it only when you are connected on the three network; it doesn't work if you are connected to a wifi.
hope it helps
latest version at this time [13/02/2011] attached
Thanks, alot.
I use to get from droid market, but after hard reset on my phone. can't download skype from market agian.

Gr8, it requires android 2.3
What software do you use to video calls?
The only ones I have heard of are Fring, Tango and Yahoo. I think both parties need to be registered with the application for it to work.
Haven't used any of them though
Skype android works like a charm on my phone and worked on my POS pandigital tablet, but again, both parties need the app. Hoping to test it on the Gtab this week.
Reelportal is only thing that will work android to pc. I will post. Apk later,search on xda. You download and install and also install adobe AIR. Then all person on pc has to do is go to reelportal.com on pc. Go to same room,fast and simple. You click on number 10 to enable webcam.trust me,if you want to save alot of time go this route,ive tried it all.

Skype does not have camera settings in present release. Only voice calls are available. Also, not all ROMs support Skype.
Doh..brainfarted on that one. I skype video off my laptop and IPAD2..... My bad. (long week)
However, skype (audio) works fine on the android platform. I use it on my Droid all the time when I'm international. Cuts way down on my phone bill.
Apparently skype is working on a camera enabled android APK specifically for the tablet market, now that most of them have camera's. I wouldn't know about the G-tab though - Tigerdirect screwed me over big time so know I have to go hunt one down while I'm on the road.....grrr...
I pulled qik apk off my tmobile MyTouch 4g and it worked just fine.
I've used Yahoo messenger with video to vid chat with the wife and kids when I travel. No issues at all.
I am trying out reelportalhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908613&highlight=reelportal and really liking it so far.

I agree with brandonpavo.
The reelportal method is the best method for android to PC/Mac right now (hopefully Skype will get something going soon, and not just for iOS ).
I tested it with both a PC and a MAC on my GTab and it worked perfect!
Now the question is how long it'll be free. (I wonder this since reelportal is posting on xda asking for testers). but until then I will be able to video chat with my wife whenever I'm away.
thanks for the tip!

Thanks for testing it out. I intend to keep ReelPortal free. That's why I even make the server available, so anyone can run their own service. Imagine getting hold of a Skype server software .
My intention is to use ReelPortal as a foundation for developing other software I had in mind, beyond the video conferencing aspect.

Very good to hear. With a little refinement of the UI, I think you have a world-class app. Now that our son and daughter-in-law also have G-tabs, my wife plans to do some video chat with our grandchildren.

I don't have my gtab yet, but my wife and I used yahoo messenger for PC to phone video calls on her EVO. It worked well, and I plan on trying it out as soon as I get the gtab.

Viber today updated it's app to v.2.2 with added calling feature which was missing. It might be an obvious solution but just wanted to share with those that might not remember. I used WinTT tweaker (got it from Bazaar) to set marketplace to Nokia Collection because it's available just for nokia. Restarted and than used this image with bing vision to get it

Tell us about call quality.
Hi all,
This is a member of the Viber R&D Team. I'm here to provide direct support and information
Viber's new update with the calling option was indeed released recently. We would love to hear your feedback and reports so we could improve the app and service.
If you have any questions/problems, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
the Viber Team.

Sometimes 3G reception could be low, and this is something we cannot control. Naturally this affects Viber's call quality and results in disruptions and broken sound.
We are continuously trying to improve our handling of 3G, so you can expect better performance as newer versions of Viber are released.
Meanwhile, WiFi- WiFi calls on Viber should generally be very clear and are free of such disruptions.
Call qualty was the same over 3G and wifi. Hope new versions will handle this. I would like to hear from others if they have same problems with call qualty.

There shouldn't be any special problem registering at the moment.
Please try removing Viber, wait 24 hours, reinstall and try again (make sure you try both the SMS and the automated call options).
In addition, you may try to register to Viber with a different number (for example - your home landline number, a friend's number, etc.), in order to determine whether the problem is specific with your number, or a general one.
