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.

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 )

Here Skype just runs beautiful, and stable.

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.
I heard that there is an unofficial Skype with video calls floating around for the Thunderbolt.
I know there is Fring and Qik, etc., but I need to be able to make calls to Skype. Does anyone know if there is an apk that works with the Incredible 2? Or is it just better to wait until the official update is released?
I'm referring to this:

This should now have a much greater possibility of working now that the android app supports video call natively on some roms.
Biggest thing is i think, that whe need a front camera, maybe a developer can adjust the program that whe only can or must use back camera !!

This is already done. You can test it with Fring Voice call. Its more of a question of telling the new Skype app that the leo is also a capable phone for video calling.
Its actually not working with Miui 2.3.. it just gives a black image.. back or front = same
When someone is calling to you with video, you get video .... accept you can't send video...
Maybe skype is updating it later

I have the same problem. Its probably not starting the video correctly. I have heard that in Skype v3.0 it will be working on all phones and not limited to the ones specified on the website.
It sucks since we cant even see a video come in either. Tested it a few time, no luck.

Which file exactly from that thread? There are 7... obviously some saying two cameras, but which did you use?
EDIT: com.skype.raider-2-onecam.zip
Just tested com.skype.raider-1cam.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153285 - skype and video works good, but i can't receive phone incoming calls from GSM or 3G when skype is active and online.
Does anyone also have this issue?
When there are incoming call, i receive FC of com.android.phone if i try to pick up the call. After FC there are no sound in the system until the reset.
If skype is not active all works ok.
I have a TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 Nightly v3.4.0 Android 2.3.4 GB ROM in my HTC HD2
Same here, the incomming call rings, but when picked up no sound and the screen freezes.
I go back to the skype from the market and wait for the problem will be resolved.
UPDATE:
Just found out that the skype downloaded from the market has the same problems.
When i log out of skype, i can receive the 3G calls.
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!

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...
