Hi guys,
Question: I know officially, video calling is not supported on Froyo (weird however that my son has a Samsung Galaxy SL that is running same Android version 2.2.1, but does support video calling...).
Is any of you using Tango on the IS? I tried it, both connected to the same WiFi, he can see me, I can see myself in the little screen, he can see himself in the little screen, but I cannot see him on my phone. Where is is supported to show up, I see black...
Anyone experience the same?
Thanks.
Im using... No problem at all

I've just started to use tango so I'm far from being an expert on this topic. I tried it in a recent business trip with my wife at home. I had the same and had to tell my wife to hit the video button on her iphone as I couldn't see her.
Ok, thanks all, I have found my specific issue, it seems that Tango has a known problem on the Samsung, so I will just have to wait until they fix it.
Hi guys I just installed Tango and did video call with fridends' iPhone and nexus s (both running Tango) but they both see my video up side down!!
I also tried video call between nexus s and iPhone, both video on their phones are all fine just my IS seems taking the up side down video with front facing camera.
This is really annoying!! I just wonder if any of you have the same problem?
By the way I just updated to gingerbread today and did not try Tango before on froyo. And when I used the new "mirror" app default in gingerbread I can see my front facing cam capturing the correct video. So this should be a Tango comparability issue with gingerbread??

I've used tango with my brother (he has an iphone4) with no problems. But I'm on froyo still. It could be a GB bug...

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

Has anyone discovered any other options for video chat yet? I wish there was one with a desktop client....
Was looking for another app as well... tried Fring but it uses the back camera.
Tango sucks though, it's so stuttery and laggy even over wifi. I'm gonna try Qik next, but it doesn't seem like there's any good video calling app for android yet.

ooVoo did not allow me to do video chat as it will not let me select using the front facing camera as my video source in the app settings on my Nexus S nor my girlfriends. So it is not a viable choice for Nexus S owners.
I wrote qik support on this last week, but they couldn't give be an ETA on a video chat app for NS.

About to just program a video chat app myself. -_-
On ooVoo's website, it says that they are working on Nexus S compatibility. The last time I checked was couple weeks ago, so yeah, could have changed by now.
nothing works except tango. Which 'works' but doesn't work. I have a bunch of video chat apps installed on my phone waiting patiently for one of them to update.
I am SO STOKED about oovoo! Desktop to mobile! Anf they announced support for NS!!! argh!

I am hoping Skype video support comes to Android sometime soon. My family that lives all over the country uses it to keep in touch, so it'd be nice to have that option from my phone. I don't really have a reason to use video chat on my phone otherwise at the moment.
Not available for us yet.

currently Skype works very well in Android, just no video
voice only at the moment
I tried ooVoo and it looks promising, but yeah it doesn't work for NS yet. The UI is nice, and the desktop client seems good. Keeping an eye on this one...
Can't believe Google dropped the ball on this. THEIR phone with a FFC and no Google Chat video.
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!

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.

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

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.

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.

Together working without problems and with good video

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.
