Skype released a new version 2.0.0.45 which enable video calling for some phone.
Market on my tablet says there's an update but it won't let me. Is this happening for everyone? Is this update purely for those phones?
The update only is available for official Android 2.3 Gingerbread devices.
See:
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/30/skype-with-video-finally-released-on-android/
The new update looks great on the xoom. Side loaded it. And since it is free, here's the apk.
I had Skype installed on my Xoom but market doesn't even show skype at all but I downloaded it to my Motorola Droid 1 and then copied the apk to the Xoom.
Can someone please post the APK instead of the RAR. I can't download it via the Zoom and I don't have a computer. I'm using the stock browser and not the XDA app. Thanks in advanced.

any luck with video calling?
Will it work on my EVO 4G??? So I can have video call.
Take a look at:
community [dot] skype [dot] com/t5/Android/Motorola-Xoom/td-p/2608
I made similar questions...
I am able to install it on Xoom, but I downloaded the file from the web.
Working fine so far...
PS: I can't post urls...

I already tried doing that as I noticed the other post was a RAR but the apk is bigger than the maximum size allowed which is probably why it was posted as a RAR instead as compression will save some space. All you really need to do is download the RAR and then extract it using root explorer.
Thanks, side loaded and working fine!
Can you upload it as .zip? The issue is that I can't download from from the browser because it always fails. For some reason u can download apk's and zips. I'll keep trying.

Yup, that's exactly why it's a rar. I usually upload straight apk files.
Now it's again available from the market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.skype.raider&feature=search_result
They push update today morning.
If there's no video chat, is there any reason to install this update? I mean this seriously and not sarcastically. I uninstalled Skype and haven't seen much point without video. Is there something cool in this release?

No. Only difference is higher Res graphics, but still not updated for honeycomb
No video kills it for me either

Has anyone tried the modified apk (device restriction have been removed) from here?
I'm at work at the moment and don't have my Xoom to try it, but i will certainly try it when i get home.
Edit: does't work.

since the mytouch can't be rooted yet, probably not. I bet sherpa is going to be a protected app.
i bet we have this app in the next week because we have the best modders and developers here . The only way this app wont work is if it needs some sort of code and needs to talk to a server.... but i doubt it.
The App Isn't Out, I Believe Its Gonna Be In The Market, Because Everyone That Has The Phone Already Doesn't Have The App On The Phone, And It Said It Would Be Launched The Same Time As The Phone
a quick online search. and you can have the app on your G1.
its a neat idea..but kinda useless, all it does is search near you for food,movies,cafe's and such, same thing you can do with all other type of apps.

All right thanks. I couldn't install it. Says package not properly signed...To the person who said they were able to install it, could you pull it out and post an apk on rapidshare or something? Thanks
To fix the signing problem; simple folks
Uninstall the Sherpa you have and install from the market... looks like something to do with the signing and the same version number but a different signed key.
well i installed it like last week if u want i can upload the .apk

Thunderbolt's version of Skype WITH VIDEO is now available.

i took a quick look... it appears that it would not be an easy & quick fix / rebuild i dont think, the entire program is written to use and be depended on <uses-library android:name="com.htc.device" />... before taking on this project id wait out as skype said that att was suppose to get releases of its video call first so id think we cant be to far behind
For anyone interested, here is the deodexed apk decoded and built with apk-tool.
Note: This cannot be installed yet.

it doesn't work because it was not made for this phone. even if it did install, it wouldn't work with our camera because moto uses its own camera driver since froyo doesn't have one (gingerbread will). htc uses its own FFC driver as well.

Because they contain drivers for all the phones they know of with FFCs I would bet.
Could it be that because att doesn't have 4g yet, Skype is holding out?

Probably right. Here is Motorola's API:
http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/library/motorola-front-facing-camera-api/
It is so frustrating that using the same system (android) and also having a front camera but we cannot use the same app (skype with video).
yup but that was specifically develpoed for the thunderbolt, I assume if it does get officially launched with it, it will be a matter of time before that spreads to being on other devices (much like when they launched skype in the first place on android) the key question is will they fix the sound issues that moto's config gives these voip programs.

I'm guessing no, but for reasons other than the camera driver.

as I learned in the (otherwise useless) motorola atrix dev conference, the FFC driver for the atrix is written BY motorola. Android 2.2 does NOT have a standard FFC driver and so every phone that has an FFC and is running 2.1 or 2.2 is using their own FFC driver. That is why Tango and Qik did not work for the Atrix immediately when it was released, and Qik had to release an Atrix-only version of the app.
When gingerbread comes across all devices, it will have a standard FFC driver. But until then, every company running 2.2 uses their own and that is why these aren't compatible apps.

More than likely, it's because AT&T didn't want Skype to release it yet.. the carriers have a surprising amount of influence on app developers. Think of how the Inspire and Atrix still don't have HSUPA enabled whereas the iPhone 4 has had it since its release. My guess is they don't want to overload their already fragile network

I didnt have any problems it showed it my market fine.
Maybe its my VEGAn TAB GE 7.0. Some things shows up as Not Compatible and doesnt have the download. But i usually find it on the net somewhere. Cept for my Spades Free by AI Factory. No where to be found.

Any way you can get the apk? Its a free game. I just can't see the download cause of the 7.0.
Although it works I'm not impressed with the animations. Also is anyone else having an issue with touch response? I get sacked alot because of that

It's on sale, but not free. BTW- It dials home for a license on the first run, so even if you got the *.apk you would not be able to run it.

No. Me and cbay were talking a few posts up on the 1st page. I had ask him about Spades Free. Which is free. Wasnt talking about Madden.
Yea..Madden is a paid app that asks you for a licence thing if you download it from else where.

Probably not because it's optimized for ICS? Not sure, I think the SGSII is Gingerbread, could be the issue.
