Skype for GB roms? - Thunderbolt Themes and Apps

I'm running BAMF REMIX GB and I would like skype video calling to work for me or gtalk video also..please forgive me if there is already apps out there, if so, can you point me in the right direction..
Thanks in advance for your help, and all your hard work devs

Skype needs to have some kinks worked out. Gtalk included on dasBamf remix works for seeing/hearing the person on a computer, but only the audio from the caller on the thunderbolt is transmitted. We'll have to wait for the kinks to be worked out on these.
Othwerwise try other video chat programs like Tango.

Yeah what the hell do we use? lol
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

I can't wait for the Google Talk Video Chat For now, I guess we need to wait for updates to Tango, Qik, etc.
Here is Tango's official announcement: http://feedback.tango.me/tango/topi..._facing_camera_on_your_nexus_s?from_gsfn=true

[Q] Oovoo beta on Xoom?

I'm looking to see if anyone's tried the Oovoo beta on Xoom and if so, what are the results so far?
I'll be getting a WiFi Xoom asap for work and need to see if Oovoo functions at all and if so what bugs might be present.
I'd like to just get a Tab, since Oovoo works on it, but we need something larger than 7" for our purposes.
Wont let me download it on the Xoom.
I have tried it by getting the apk off my motorola droid. it installs and works as far as logining in, adding contacts and making voice calls. But it doesn't give the option for using the front facing camera on the xoom and is not stable. It logs me off a lot. I submitted a trouble ticket to oovoo and they advised they are working on motorola xoom support.
Yeah, the video chat part doesn't work

Has anyone else had any luck with this seeing as the Xoom's been out for a little while now?

Is there cross-platform video chat?

Anyone figured out how to do cross-platform video chatting with the DS7? I know qik just updated their app so it works for us now, but I really want to be able to chat with my wife who only has a laptop. Wifi is fine.
Also, does google support video chat with the DS7?
Oovoo

Oovoo sucks for the streak it doesnt allow you to use the front facing cam...
Have u tried fring, not sure if it will work.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App
fring, qik, skype: nope.
oovoo: it's not video chat unless you can see the video while you're chatting.
anyone have any other ideas? I assume that this will be possible in honeycomb. Anyone have any idea how long that will take? Gah. Not impressed with this thing so far.

Best App For Video Chatting

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.
Try oovoo. It's working good for me over wifi.

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.
The only one working with froyo is skype together with qik which is from skype.
Together working without problems and with good video

alot of people like to knock it but I've tried many different video messaging apps, but I still find the Qik video app the better of all the ones ive tried. Also tried yahoo messenger video chat, works ok but I dont use yahoo enough to use it.
Im gonna give a shot to vtok, are there any other solutions for tab to pc/mac? I really need this to talk to my family in mexico, none of my family relatives has data plan in their phones is just way too expensive and slow unlike the U.S.

other solution to call pc from tab is oovoo and is working great
i m having trouble after i upgraded my froyo to gingerbread, the front video is inverted, the program i am using is QIK. any one else had the same problem ?

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.

What kernel/ROM are you using?
Skype Video only works with some FroYo ROMs. Doesn't work with Gingerbread or Honeycomb since the camera drivers aren't available.

Would love to hear back from yorkygeorge on what OS you are running. I'd be willing to flash back and forth to it just for skype. Thanks!
