[Q] Tango video chat

Anyone get Tango to work? I tried to install from maket. It downloads fine and then errors on install. Been trying to find an app that works between this tablet and a computer. Any one have any ideas if this one doesn't work? We already got screwed on the Skype beta front.
If I didn't see the potential in the hardware of the grab, I'd return it. So far, VS has really dropped the ball. Stock has no flash or video conferencing. Both on the box.. lol I'll stick it out and hope for the best I guess.

I've had no luck finding a usable video chat app. There's a separate thread for this.
I've tried multiple apps but none have worked...

Yahoo messenger w/ video chat works on mine running Vegan beta 3, but the webcam shows up sideways

I got Tango to work on mine, but its sideways.

Im running vegan b4 and i did a titanium backup on my increddible and then put the backup on my gtab, just apps and app data not system. Ike i said it works but the video of yourself is sideways ut besides that works great.

I mentioned in a previous thread, video calling works better with the gsensor fix. Video chat works fine with yahoo messenger atleast, and is not sideways like it was before the gsensor fix. Maybe it works better with tango.

just tried tango on my droid works awesome never knew much of the app, will give it a shot on my g tablet when i get home its running vegan beta 5 will post if it works.

Tango from titanium
Just a quick side note. If you plan on pulling it from Titanium you wont find it by searching 'Tango', you need to look for the 3 'sgiggle' files to move and restore.
I have it on my tab now but am not in a place to test. I got it to dial out, it was still sideways and died pretty quickly. I'm not too familiar with it so I'm sure it's an error on my part but I'll keep plugging away.

I can confirm Yahoo messanger with the video chat plugin works on VEGAn beta 5 orientation is fine thanks to the gsensor fix. I finally got a chance to test with someone. I don't know if it was just me or not since I only tried once, but after a minute or two I got errors but was able to hit wait and it kept going fine. Eventually I was unable to bring up menus to even exit the chat. Not even to my home screen. Had to reboot to get out of it.
Its a working option for the time being and works from android to computers. So, great option if the closing issues can be fixed.

a lot of people say they got tango to work with video showing sideways.. i see that on my screen but the person i am tangoing with just sees a blank screen... and when i hit the switch camera button it just alerts them that i am switching cameras and stays there..

How has anyone gotten it to install from market? It allways says failure to install

If you just keep ignoring the message and reopening the program it will eventually work. I was able to place a video call to someone but they were unable to see my stream, it just showed up black. I was able to see them however.

OK so not just me, im sure Skype need to update their app for the phone then, as they add models all the time. thanks guys

It asked to reinstall, so I did and it was a newer version....made a call to my friend in China this morning, worked fine. No video from my phone, but could receive video. Hopefully new Skype software fixes it!

SO GOOD NEWS
I have found a copy of skype with video that works perfectly, with front and back camera, no sign in issues.
Its been re-developed by theos0o... It has some fixes you run in the Advanced settings option where if you get black screen calling you can fix it and make it work perfectly
I cannot give you the link as i think it counts as warez... but if you search Google for Skype theos0o android
You should find it
WORKS GREAT

Make sure you tick the two options in the advanced settings menu that mention fixing the black screen issue, works great after that

You need the right version, check in the apps forum for a thread by me.

[Q] Which version of Google Talk really works on IncS?

Has anybody tried all the versions spread on the XDA Forum? I tried this ones:
Versions available: (Use the latest from below, or use DeToX-cz's installer app)
1. "Talk_with AV.zip". Same as stock with just the FC fixed so it works on other phones.
2. "Talk_with_AV_no_wifi.zip" or "talk1.3.nowifi.update-signed.zip". Added a fix to let it work over your data connection.
3. "talk1.3.nowifi.v2-signed.zip". Added an additional fix to let it work over data.
4. xilard version. #3 with Camera and microphone tweaks.
5. [email protected]'s gTalk installer. Installs the new gTalk files. Needs root. Not sure what mods he has incorporated in it.
6. xilard version +theos0o portrait fix, by $omator
7. version "1.33" by theos0o [thread][multiupload link]. I copied the 3 files in the update.zip manually using android commander and it works fine. (Nexus one, 2.3.5 CM nightly)

and the one app in the market, which can install all of the custom gtalk apps.

In some of them, the other person cannot see me. In other versions, cam works fine, but I cannot hear the person and viceversa. In the modaccos version, the front cam is 90° turned around. Well you know all the problems. Thats why my question:
Does anybody knows a gtalk [video/wifi/cam switcher] custom app that really works on the Incredible S?
BTW: Im using Virtuous 2.37 Rom.
Thanks for answers.

Am using the default 'talk' app in virtuous unity 2.37.
seems to be no problem here!
i did have trouble in MIUI rom, but nothing with VU.
has this been persistent?
otherwise i would suspect faulty network

And video call works on yours? Can u see and hear the other person? Can the other person hear and see you? Is your front cam flipped to 90 degrees? Can you switch between front and rear cam?
Sorry for so many questions . I'm just pissed that my gtalk doesn't work properly.
Thxs.

I did a full wipe and installed the new VU 2.39.
Talk works fine, only that the front cam is flipped on 90°.
Is there a patch or something? maybe this framework-res or something like that? i dont know what else to try.
Can someone help?
Thanks.

lol. i understand your frustration.
but everything works fine. i can hear and see the other person and they can hear and see me too.
the image is quite right, not flipped
am sorry you having these issues!
since you have wiped and re-flashed, you could probably try uninstalling the 'talk' app & then download and re-install from the market.
maybe that would work

New way of Video Chat

well it seems we have a way of getting video chat on our phones.
Thanks to sakisuren for this....
By using Vtok and the new gtalk from gapps it is possible.
Its based on gtalk and connects with your gmail account so no need for extra accounts!
New Gtalk Video
Flash this in recovery.
Vtok
Install as a normal apk/app
you won't be able to download this from market as it says its not compatible...but we have tried it and it seems to work.
I have contacted developer for support, so i shall see where this goes
We need this testing on wifi to wifi see if call connection does work!
