The only problem is that I don't think that it will work on the epic. If someone can optimize it for the epic, that would be great.
Here is the link:
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/04/11/download-skype-with-video-on-android/
I just saw that this got released for the Thunderbolt. I'll give it a shot on my Epic and see how it does. I'm betting it won't work.
If it doesn't work, this should be modded to work with the Epic as soon as possible. It will make me a happy man.
Not going to happen. It's thunderbolt only and most likely authenticates the device and network since Skype has an exclusive agreement with VZW.
To quote Decad3nce from twitter:
"Skype: <CheckBoxPreference android:summary="Disable the exclusivity check to use on all phones" android:defaultValue="false" /> heh"
Dunno what it means but it looks like it can be edited to be used on any device.

It was half joke/half not(it mostly just made me lulz). That's from the actual debug_settings.xml that skype threw in;
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<CheckBoxPreference android:title="Disable exclusivity check" android:key="disable_exclusivity" android:summary="Disable the exclusivity check to use on all phones" android:defaultValue="false" />
</PreferenceScreen>
I manage to get skypevideo to install on the epic, but it won't authorize correctly yet.(It was crapping on install due to needing com.htc.devices library), so just kanged that out of the manifest.
Swapped around a bit of byte code to where it checks SkypeCallCenter for compatibility but craps out and throws the following string:
SplashScreenActivity.smali: const-string v0, "Sorry, your phone is not able to use this version of Skype. To find out more about Skype on mobile, visit www.skype.com"
The following apk installs fine, but it'll throw that string every time on init:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9992367/Skype-Epic.apk
I probably goofed something up as well. I'm gonna go get some sleep and look at it again tomorrow.
If anyone else wants to take a shot at it, here's the decompiled apk(faux-source files) from apktool:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9992367/com.skypevideo.zip
EDIT:
Derp, for more reference:
The apk clearly has support for everything from LG -> Samsung devices. Though we might have to throw in some dummy stubs like the HTC Camera hardware stub.
The merlin config shows snippets of it:
Code:
default-videohost:off
default-voicehost:off
lg-voicehost:off
htc-videohost:on
htc-voicehost:on
lg-videohost:off
lg-voicehost:off
samsung-videohost:off
samsung-voicehost:off
Oh, and another thing, someone at Skype included 50% GPL'd code in their apk.
So we should demand source, because we can.

I know, I'm a horrible person. I thought I read that the G1 didn't have a compass but the G2 would, so I assumed it didn't have one and never bothered looking around. It's a good thing I found it, you never know when you'll be lost in the forest with no GPS reception and only a star map and the G1 compass to save the day.
Now that I think about it, I remember a demo for the G1 a year or two ago where they showed it using street view + compass to automatically change orientation of the view as you turned. That was pretty *****in'.

contact the developer via email he will probably send it to you, ive spent the past few days emailing people apks and its getting old, besides the fact that i think h build is better, and that this is one more reason why, it seems that everytime someone talks about an app, there are plenty of people that go "oh email me the apk to this app, even though its just a dumb app that uses the compass to find metal thats close to the phone (within a foot) and serves no real purpose other than entertainment, i just HAVE to have it, but not at the expense of emailing the developer directly, no, i have to have everyone on xda email me apk's of every new app since im using a build with a broken market"
