[Q] Skype (or any other video chat app) on 2x?

has any one of the lucky owners of the phone tried to use Skype on it? Is there video chat support? Surely the hardware is up to the task.
How bout OooVoo?

I tried with Yahoo Messenger and that worked.
Havn't tried Skype.

Skype doesn't support video chat, and I can't even log in, it crashes every time I start it (2.2.1)

I have tried skype. It works perfectly! Excellent sound quality using either 3G/H or wifi.
Sadly no video support yet. There are some other apps that do have video like Tango or Fring. Downside is that the other party needs the same app too. ( correct me if im wrong )

How come you are running 2.2.1 iso 2.2.2 ?
Here Skype just runs beautiful, and stable.

Pre-sale sample

Tango doesn't work on 2.2.2 it crashes every time i try to call.

Any update is Tango or Fring are working with the FFC on thus phone?
Does Yahoo messenger works with the FFC on this phone?

Tango works, but the front cam is not supported.

Beta fring 2.4.5.9 can work with the FFC just fine.
Download it here http://reg.fring.com/app/versions/Fring2459.apk
Note this is NOT the market version, it is a later version which is beta testing.

[Q] Gtalk Video Chat on JVH

Does anyone know is there a way to get video chat on rooted JVH? Maybe there's a port from 2.3.4 or something.
Thanks

[Q] Skype video working on Milestone?

I have Froyo on my Milestone. Does Skype video work with the stock app from the market? Or is there a modified apk I can use to have video calling?

~80 views and no answer?
Surely someone must know

I finally managed to get skype video calls to work!
I can now both receive and send video and make two way video calls.
I am using the modified skype version here:

Enable "use preview surface" in the tweaks menu.
My gratitude to droidrx for this great work.

Thank you so much for the tip! Working great on my phone, never knew it was possible.

Tried to run on my CM7 with android 2.3.7 and it works fine too for me.

I can see video just fine but cannot send video... Did something change since the last post?

Working Google Talk w/ video in ICS?

I'm looking for the ICS variant of this hack:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078140
Does anyone know if such a thing exists, or how the GTalk in ICS can be edited to allow this functionality?
I'm really enjoying Team Hacksung's ICS port, but really need this functionality so my parents can watch my kids in all their glorious cuteness ...
Thanks!

I haven't tried it, but Skype has an option to video chat with the rear camera

Thanks for the reply. I just tried skype. In video chat I get audio but video is no go, on either front (obviously won't work) or back cam setting. I'm on a GB i9000 based rom if that matters...
Is there another video chat app that has a windows based client for remote chat?
...Would it help to offer a bounty on GTalk w/video in ICS for the Captivate?
Thanks!

I also tried theos0o's Skype hack:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1148708
But wasn't able to get chat video working...after I rebooted my phone it also forced me to un-install Skype and tried to make me re-download from the Market.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!

Solution!
