Ndither Market will let me download it. The online Market said the app wasn't compatible with my device.

Wrong. LG revolution and a few others are an exception to this. Read the supported phones in the app.

Tango Works!
Have any of you tried the Tango app? It does video calling with front and rear cameras. Works perfectly, when I tested it between my brothers iPod Touch and my LG REVO.

yup I have Tango.. used it a couple times. works great thought the quality isnt so good on 3G..

Update the app...go into settings, it shows it's only for the back facing camera. Tango is the only app that utilizes Revo's FFC right now. That is until it gets 2.3 and I believe Google standardized the FFC API, thus making it easier for devs to program for it.

Yeah your right my bad. O well I wouldn't use Skype anyways it will absolutely decimate your battery since its always running in case you get a call. After uninstalling I literally get 4 extra hours of battery life and that's without even using Skype once(just letting it run in the background. I can only imagine how bad it would kill the battery if I actually made calls with it

Android app that works with nextel push to talk

I'm just curious if there is an Android app simliar to TIKL that can actually communicate with nextel's push to talk. My dad and I do a lot of side jobs together and his phone has push to talk and it would make life a lot simplier if I could make use of it from my Epic.
Nope. You could get a Nextel Android phone to do iDEN PTT, or alternatively move him to Android or iOS supported phone to TiKL on. No integration between the two.

Working great for me!! What I noticed though...is my buddy installed tango on his iTouch. I had to make sure the email he registered with was in my contact list. Than Tango automatically showed me he was available for a call. 3g was great!
My xoom has a phone number so maybe i can try that one.
I was able to connect but the person on the other end was upside down....any fix?
Edit: nevermind, the issue was on the other persons end.

I can confirm NS4G working with this version. Market version does not work. I'm on CM7.1 nightly 39 with netarchys 1.3.5 cfn. However, I HAD to lower it to 1300 MHz. 1400 MHz will freeze video after 5 sec. Just like gtalk video.

Links or gtfo. The hardware is there (independent GPU), and the power is there (dual-core CPU, 512mb RAM) for ICS but this has been a pipe dream at best, please don't get our hopes up with more rumors. If you have a link, please SOS (Save Our Sanity) and post it.

LOL. I would do the same as you (Ask for a step by step.) however, T-Mobile gets crap for reception in my town. It's not even 2G in my town, so no point in using it. AT&T in my area just recently upgraded to HSPA+. There is no 4G LTE (Even for Sprint or Verizon.)

AT&T is the only carrier in my town, for some reason that has 3G or HSPA+ coverage.
It's how backwoods my town is.
I myself am connected to HSPA+. When I was on Sprint and had my Evo 4G, I had to go to Boston (Over an hour drive) to be able to test it out. Otherwise I'd get about 600 KBPS or so download.
O lol

T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling?

Is there a way to get this app to work on this phone? I found and downloaded the apk but I get a fc every time (I've run fix permissions). Is it just not compatible with the AHD?

Even if it installs, it's most likely not gonna work as there are a lot of libs and framework files that are needed for it to function properly. There were attempts to get it to work on cm roms but not much success.

See if you get better signal if you switch to GSM only. I do that when I'm at home since I can use WiFi for internet.
