Skype is a bit funny about how to get settings.
First go to your profile, then hit menu button there will be settings then

I used skype the other night and it worked just fine for me the front facing camera was working too.

Thats odd. I was about to say maybe its because of the ICS update, however, I just had a skype call not to many Days ago and it worked fine. Oddly the video went from full screen and clear to small and blury after a while. Maybe it does have some bugs to work out with ICS.

google voice+ gv help please!!

How do I make calls form my headset with out it having to call me back first, you know like a regular cellphone, i know it can be done because i followed instructions from a thread on this which i can no longer find. ive tried clicking call through in gv but that doesn't work, can someone help pls. thanx in advanced
I know that the official Google Voice app does direct dial without ringback. Maybe you want to transition to that app instead.
as for the unofficial GV app, i'm not sure.
Doesn't DirectDial (dialing out) still use your minutes?

This is not true: you can set the Camera application to use the front camera instead of the rear camera......then, we can open a discussion on what it is useful for, maybe self-portraits ?

Prolems With Whatsapp on my P7-L10

Hello everyone!
For the last two month I've been a happy Ascend P7-L10 owner (except for the music player, but that's another story). I just faced a little problem recently when my girlfriend left for China (compulsory semester in a foreign school), as we now only use whatsapp to talk. My problem is that I receive my whatsapp with, sometimes, a 30 mins delay. As there is a 6 hours gap between Bejing and Brussel (where I live) I can't/don't want to miss any of her whatsapp, I've thus switched back to my old iPhone 4 which works perfectly fine for Whatsapp.
Long story short, I would like to know if there is something I got wrong in the configuration which can cause such a delay. Has any one of you faced the same problem and solved it? I would LOVE to go back to my Ascend device.
I don't know if it's worth mentioning but I'm on stock ROM, which I rooted (if that makes any differences).
thanks a lot for your help!

OK everyone, as nobody seems to know and I found a solution, Imma post it right here:
Push Notifications Fixer (root or non root) fixed my issue and I now receive my Whatsapp as soon as they are sent (tested about 10 times with my brother, at different moments of the day). I hope this is gonna help some of you too!

Well that was the case and I still didn't get my notifications immediately, I often times had a delay The problem is solved with the program I gave in my previous post so I'm happy anyway.

I know it's not a direct answer to your question, but you may want to consider switching to google voice for your voicemail needs. I recently made the switch, and it is awesome. My voicemail just appears in Hangouts right along with text messages associated with that phone number. I was able to listen to a voicemail while on an airplane over WiFi today... It's pretty sweet.

Does not work for me. Does the same thing at the one I pulled from my S3, it loads it has me call into my VM to activate but then just sits there and says it wasn't able to activate, try to call voicemail again...
I've tried a half dozen times.
Don't want to derail the thread anymore though for the OP so I'll make my own post! Thanks though!

What exactly didn't work? I would be happy to help you fix the issue.
Google voice imo
There's a Verizon vvm nexus on the play store. Can't get it to work though
I switched to YouMail in the play store to replace Verizon VM. Pretty happy with it.

I pulled these from my 2013 Moto X /system/priv-app/
Its the VVM.apk and vvm.odex
I placed them in the same directory on the Nexus 6 and made sure the permission were the same as the Moto x.
Once I reboot, I got a popup dialog that said visual voice mail had failed. But the app was in my app drawer.
if anyone has any suggestions.
Attached are the files. I am in the same boat.

Voicemail .apk
I pulled these off of my Droid Turbo.
This version of Verizon VoiceMail is 3.1.0.
I also put in the same directory and set permissions and rebooted. It installed with no force closes but I cannot get past the set up.
I get this error message and code 9009.
Someone wanna call support and ask them for a workaround while I'm at work??
Anyone that is smarter than me wanna give this a shot?? I would love the community to be able to pull this off and get this working for all of us premium voicemail users.

Have you tried this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441643
There is a trial in that thread. I have been using that app for years, and it has been working great on all devices, but I haven't installed it on my N6 yet.
Thanks for the link mate bit too much for my wallet but cheers for the heads up

It is expensive. I've also used it for years on many different devices. I think it used to be cheaper than it is now but if I had to buy it again at full price, I would. It has a lot of options to ensure there is always a way to get the best compatibility with which ever device I get next. Its always had the most consistent audio quality of any of the other recorders I've tried.
I can't recommend this enough. Try the trial. Then try some other apps.

Try Boldbeast call recorder. Manual recording mode is free. It works without setting SELinux to permissive.

Settings and app for the Nexus 6 (when the app asks to set SELinux to permissive, select no because there's no need for that):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56397550&postcount=4
On Lollipop 5.1 the app force closes after a phone call but it still records the phone call (worked perfectly on 5.0.2). The developer has promised to fix the FC issue.
