Google talk is not in the gapps ?

when i said good version, i'd said a version who have a functionnal talk video with my 2x

I'm using stable 7.1 and google talk video works fine.

It is not fine for me (nightly 187 with google talk gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip).
* Rotating to landscape mode gives an upside down camera image.
* microphone mute button is not functional
* The picture is very dark compared to my Galaxy S
There are also other issues with the latest "official" google apps packages like the broken google backup transport. Most likely because the versions of the components inside do not match.
I don't know who is responsible for them but they haven't been fixed even though this is a known issue for a long time.
I have packed my own google apps packages from the oxygen rom which works great on my Galaxy S. Obviously the google talk from this package dose not work with the optimus.
As I understand there is also no stock firmware (including v20l) with google talk video chat.
But maybe we could use the gtalk2.apk from an atrix rom?

It worked for me on stable 7.1 cm7
Now I am on miui 1.10.28 with owains tweak pack and it still works. I've already had long 2-3 hour video chats.

It's too old thread.
I also suffered from this issue. I found one solution.
You can find it with "Install Google Talk Video, Audio on Android Gingerbread phone" in google. (Actually I tried to link the site, but... "To prevent spam to the forums, ALL new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages. After approximately eight posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thanks for understanding!" message prevent it)
Good luck!
I missed something. I tried it on Nexus S.

Upload Disabled Fix?

So I know this has been an issue since at least the G1, and that there's a sort of workaround either using Linda File Mgr for Gmail uploads or use the Opera browser. Most of the posts out there on this issue are old now so apologies if I've missed something current sifting through everything...
Does a patch/fix/hack exist yet for the unrooted N1/2.1 to correct what seems to be a perpetual Google "beta" bug they have no interest in addressing? I mean, my world won't end if I can't upload a new pic to Facebook or video to Youtube, but it's a glaring omission from an otherwise great handset. Or is it an intentional nod to the carriers for bandwidth sake?
OK so, duh. I realized that if you long press on a photo or video in the gallery then click 'share' it gives you a bunch of options for places to upload to.
However...it's still extremely lame to not be able to upload anything from the stock browser, e.g., uploading pics to a blog or non-sponsored service when that uploading has to happen via the site's form (as opposed to FTP). I know Flash 10.whatever is a part of that, but plenty of sites use Java to handle uploads. Maybe that's what I'm missing...maybe the 'Upload Disabled' button shows up automatically on the Flash sites and I just haven't come across a Java-based site yet.
I would love to see this fixed soon, but just as an FYI, the fix has been committed to the Android source (not yet in AOSP) for Froyo:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2519#c112
Bump.... is this fixed in Froyo? If so can it be back ported to 2.1?
Confirmed working in stock Froyo. I can upload images, music tracks, sound clips to popular websites (e.g. Rapidshare).

Awesome!!
Are you using the stock browser? Does it only allow you access to the sdcard?
Yep, stock browser.
From the looks of it, yes it does only allow me to access the SD card. I'm also limited to the categories I mentioned above (there's no "Other" option).
what a crock...
Just got Evo at launch, (coming from WinMo), and had to install opera today just to help a fellow XDAer to upload a file to xda for him. Unbelievable!

[Q] Skype video calling for android!

Hi guys, I have just found out that a skype video call software is out for HTC thunderbolt but can anyone crack it to use it on our SGS?
The apk can be found here:
http://lts.cr/YAV
I hope this is not a repeat thread, before it was EVO which got video calling but I guess it was exclusively for some US network!
Thanks!
Bump-age
Hope so. Or even to fix the Gtalk video calling so we can use the front camera.
Skype video calling is WAY WAY WAY overdue. I know it not the fault of anyone here though.
Screw Skype. If they don't want to cater to Android users, I don't want to use them either.
When posts talk about skype and android being a no go , is it the general skype app or does this take into account
the skype on three app.The three one works just fine with a three sim card in.
Edit. Sorry bout this post, must have been half asleep last night, the word video didn't register in my brain as being the actual post subject, I just saw skype.
Has anyone tried Qik? Skype purchased it recently and my bet is we'll see the two combined before long.

What do you mean they don't cater for Android ?? Video call support is nice to have, but for most users (including me) voice call support is enough; except for few GUI bugs they have done a pretty decent job with Android Skype app, far better than what Nimbuzz or Fring ever did for Skype voice. Besides, only iOS has video support, that too was added late last year. IMO they will eventually add video support.
I don't understand why they haven't added it to the Android app yet.
I once thought it was because of missing front-camera API's that Google only recently introduced in Gingerbread, but that can't be the reason, since there are a lot of other apps that allow video-calling and work on Froyo.
I wouldn't bother with Skype anyway, were it not for the sheer number of users and the presence on virtually all platforms.
People are begging for a true multiplattform app that allows videocalling to any device (not only iPhone to Mac or Android to GMail).
And since a lot of people use Skype, it's just the easiest way to go (until Facebook introduces video-calling, whicht won't take too long I'm guessing).
Anyway, enough of this, I hope somebody can modify the mentioned app and make it work on our SGS.
Yahoo messenger supports video calls if you guys really want video support between a PC and Andoid/iOS.
Some ppl have already tried to get it working on other phones here. But looks like they have given up on it.

I saw the post on the skype blog, under android, downloaded it but havent yet called anyone, as i have no friends on it lol.
I thought id be able to use my old skype account but one is required to make a new Qik account. Seems like a quick registration process though.
Live iPhone-to-Android video chat
"The following devices support VGA quality resolution during Video Chat over Wi-Fi: Samsung Galaxy Tab, Samsung Galaxy Player, Samsung Galaxy S, and Telus Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate 4G"
I hope SGS can run this

[Q] Skype Video apk that will work on non-NEON CPUs?

Ok, this was posted before. I'm sure of it. I checked the link. But, I can't seem to find it again in my bookmarks or through XDA search or Google.
Someone had posted three Skype apks on xda. There were three versions. One was for other dual cam phones. One was for front cam phones and another fail proof version for low end phones which didn't have NEON instruction set or something which is required to process the codec. I'm looking for this thread but am unable to find it. =(

4.4 [CM11 & CyanFox] No Picture upload possible with any Browser

Hi guys,
anyone got an idea why it itsn't possible AT ALL with Android 4.4 to post a picture on Facebook or other sites that allow uploading content?
The maximum reaction i get out of it is "failure opening file",it just doesn't work with any browser (tried Dolphin,Chrome,Firefox,Stock)
This happens on every 4.4 based ROM somehow,can't thank you enough for any input about this matter
edit: 85 views and not a single "yeah,i face the same problem" or "no problem on my side at all",whats up with that
edit2: it tested every 4.4 ROM now,not only CM11&CyanFox.Nowhere is the upload working trough Browser

Google made changes in KitKat replacing webkit with chromium webview and broke file upload, text reflow, etc. Basically web browsing is awful in KitKat, Google is aware but won't revert the changes. The only workaround at present is to use Opera Beta, or Firefox nightlies, there are other browsers with file upload but I would not recommend them at all if you don't want spyware. CM just implemented some changes on last night's nightly to fix file upload, but it's done nothing for me so far, still broken. At least the CM team is aware and willing to fix things.

Thank you for passing that info,this problem was/is driving me nuts and not reading anything about it other than my ramblings was the icing on the cake.
Maybe they can make it work again on CM

I'd blame developers just as much as Google though. I understand it makes sense for them to use a web engine that Android provides for free and save time and money, but this is what happens when Google breaks something, suddenly 90% of browsers are broken. Firefox uses its own gecko engine and thus is unaffected, Opera shows a bit of spirit and patches chromium to fix these things, on the other hand. And then most people use apps instead of a browser to do things, so if some of us protest, it's not relevant.
Anyway, know that there are lots of complaints over at AOSP, but Google's reply is that these changes are intended and won't be reverted, so that's that.
Edit : "From what I understand the following is what is broken in KitKat webview :"
• text wrap no longer works
• cannot upload files
• cannot save passwords
• cannot force enable zoom
• no inverted rendering
• cannot play Flash videos (broken in 4.3 too)
Woa,the rabbithole goes deeper & deeper.I thought this was a weird bug that just happens with custom ROMS of not officially supported devices but reading that it comes from Google (and they saying "deal with it") pushes this to a whole new level.

KitKat is such a kick in the ... for anyone developing on Android or just using it. Here's another jewel.
It looks like they're trying to restrict more and more things. The very reason many of us choose android over ios....

This whole KitKat issue transforms to a scandal of some sort.If Google doesn`t change its current course,we will be on full lockdown like iOS in 2 or 3 revisions (Android 6 for example).This roadmap doesn`t make me happy at all

[Q] Cyanogen Nightly is not working as I expected

Well guys I'm pretty sure you are in the knowledge of the Cyanogen's problems. I would like to rollback to the original Moto X Android Version, even If I need to use my minimal space with annoying useless apps like spotlight and others.
My main question is, how can I rollback to the original version?
For other side I need to be clear about the errors with Cyanogen :
- Bluetooth, I can not share my music with any Bluetooth device.
- Related with the previous error, I always have a "pop-up" error with Audio FX is broken in all audio device
- I can not reproduce videos with the original player, I installed the VLC's player
- My GPS is insane, sometimes works, but most of the time has trouble using google maps changing the position. Weird.
- All my Google's accounts have the "Can not sync data" error.
- Sometimes the gallery is broken
- The 3g's speed went down, but this can be my freaking ISP, but anyone knows.
My currently version is :: 12-20150202-NIGHTLY-ghost but is happen with previous versions too
I'd appreciate a link or tutorial with the steps for install the original ROM.
Regards in advance.
1. I see a twelve assuming you have cm12 and that is not the latest nightly, but since you want to update...there is a link to flash back to stock if you scroll the general section for just a few moments and it'll walk you though it.

Woah you are on 2-02? That's one of the early builds. They have updated to 10-04. I have been using CM since 15-03 and it has been super stable and mostly bug free.
