[Q] Video call option not available - LG Thrill 4G

Hi Experts,
I got LG Thrill 4G unlocked from AT&T .I am not able to find the option for video call nor while calling or in settings. Also when am trying to use tethering its throwing error authentication failed.
PLease help

are you on 2.2.2 froyo or 2.3.5 gingerbread you can only video call with google plus on gingerbread i think and tethering theres a sticky up above about that

Thanks for the reply,
Am in froyo. BUt i didnt understand what you mean by 'using google plus'. Tethering i resolved by using the second method mentioned in

I think is lame that you would have to login into Google+ just to use video calls.... I just use Skype

Ya I think that's the only video calling we get with this phone is google+ or third party apps like skype ill have to lookin to it

What abt the normal video call option using 3G network?
I was able to do that with my Galaxy S without any issue.
Anyone ever tried video calling in Thrill 4G.

See I think samsung bakes that in to there roms we don't have such a thing on thrill

Currently using 20A and there is an option there for me to make video calls when in a call, I think it was also in 20C but can't put my hand on heart

Suggests that
1) Your 3G settings arent correct
2) Your not recieving a 3G signal
3) The Recipicant doesnt have a 3G phone

I've tried yesterday - in fact it was super-international video call (from my UK mobile to Polish mobile while roaming in Greece . Worked with no problems at all. My suggestion would be to check if you have video call activated on your SIM card.
Ah - did not realise you needed it activated on the SIM - thought it just used the 3G connection...
R
no problem with vdo calls
i have no problem with the 3G vdo calls at all. must be your setting.
How do you tell if your SIM card has video calling activated?
I'd love to try it out when the 8925 arrives.
Thanks!

Depends on particular operator, but I don't expect anyone is charging extra for that. At least not in UK.
I'm using Nadavi's Dialer. Cannot start a video call, I am displaying H on my Kaiser which is faster than 3g. I logged into my AT&T account online and added the Video Share for 5.99 a month. What am I doing wrong? I tried it with another AT&T person who had the same 5.99 feature on his account and was in a 3g network. When I try it, it says failed what do you want to do. Make regular call, sms, mms, yadadadaa. PM me if you know the answer thanks otherwise just post a reply please thanks
Nadavi's dialer is not able to make video calls - you need the HTC dialer.
The Tilt is not capable of video share. Most of the Samsung and some LG phones have video share.

Ok on Nadavis phone dialer theres a button for video call and also if you hit menu you get Video Call Options. Pretty sure it's built in to the dialer

no not yet.. still looking out for it .. seriously i want to know why the hell we cant make native video calls.. what's the problem ... ?
okk now its too much annoying that spice mi 350 supports video calling... dealer confirmed that its possible to make native over the telephony video calls jst like nokia and other phones over cheaper 3g calling rates /// seriously its very cheap to make video call in india might be only 0.006 $ per minute if i convert it with exchange rates <.30 paisa> damm... it is cheap .... i seriously needed an android which have video calling bt damm one more time .. its now a dual sim phone too... ahh i purchased mi 410 too early ..
is it a feature in MIUI?
this feature is not in mi 410 whether miui or any else... its not there
Thats very strange! even basic level phones have it.. if I remember correctly, spice had mentioned 'video calling' as a feature on this mobile
yaa and even old nokia n series could make video calls ... nd naa spice mentioned this feature for mi 350 not for mi 410 bt seriously some one a developer should work to add the ip native video calls
There are 2 types of videocalls.
1) VoIP videocalls (Skype, iPhone etc.)
2) 3G/UMTS based videocalls (most 3G/UMTS phones, Windows Mobile phones, Symbian phones, Galaxy S etc.)
Type (1) can be implemented by simple apps.
We are asking for native UMTS videocalls support (2). Galaxy S does support them, but the mainstream Android does not.
This issue is reported here.I suggest we contribute

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14391485
i had a chat with tj_style few months back about this issue, he said that its very hard to implement 3g 324m protocol as there is few almost no source
but if we get source of mi 350 and if its made by foxconn then there is possibility that we can get 3g video calling
and i think mi 350 does not have 3g video calling option in dialer, correct me if i am wrong

hi
dont know about the above but skype video call verymuch works on the mi410 iv used it a few times
From my SpiceMi410 via XDA Premium
Yes you are wrong my friend. Video calls through dialer are there in Spice MI-350 and it means through your network provider on UMTS i.e. GSM 2100. Video calls through Skype though are not reported positively. That is because MT6573 ARM V6 chips/boards are not yet supported by Skype. But Nimbuz Fring and Tango are working.
Feel free to hit thanks.
Anybody needs assistance in rooting or any other query about Spice MI-350 2.3.5 can ask questions.
Dialer supports video call. I regularly make video calls . If yours is not supporting please post a screenshot of the dialer. I will help.
Feel free to hit thanks so that I can post more often otherwise XDA is not permitting. :-X
I think only Samsung Phone support video call over 3g out of the box now,i might be wrong though
^ Yes you are wrong buddy. The ideos x6 is sold by spice mobiles in India with the name mi 410 The lower model in the spice series available in India is the phone mi350 which has native video calling facility and it do work very well

[Q] How to make voice valls over GSM on P7300

I get one Samsung GT-P7300 when I insert SIM card inside I get 3G networks
and everything is OK.
But I can't make or receive Voice calls.
Is there chance to install something or change my ROM to push My Tablet to make normal voice calls, as we can with Galaxy 7(P1000)
Thanks in advanced
from reading a ton of posts in this forum, my impression is that nobody managed to do that so far.
You could always use GrooVe IP with google voice.
At the moment don't believe it can be done. However, you have options such as Viber and others that can do some sort of call.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II using XDA App
Is there any possibilities in future that ICS may be able to have gsm phone function?
It may depend on if P7300 has gsm voice build-in hardware...
Anybody try to disect the phone apk from galaxy tab 7 and see whats what
I really don't see the need for voice calls on a tablet? Only situation I could think of is in the car when using it as a navigation system?

Some of us would like to double our tab as a phone. I'm still trying to find a tab that has calling capabilities.

How about hardware capability?
there is chance to do that? I mean, maybe someone can confirmed that built in modem has a capability for gsm calls?

I believe the hardware is capable of making voice calls because the early test units had this capability. Of course they did have a sdcard also, so it is possible that the radio hardware was also changed. But I believe it's disabled in baseband or our baseband is just missing this functionality.
And i also have a question, are GT8.9 and GT10.1 using the same radio hardware? I believe i have read somewhere that they do, but i can't find this information anymore. If they are, then we could try P7500 KK4 baseband as it is reported that it has made voice calls.
Phone calls
Hey poisike,
I've tried the latest version of your ICS Alpha 1 release for the 3G Tablet, and in fact, i can :
Receive SMS
Send SMS (with a warning "not sent" as you mentionned)
Receive phone calls (with or without headset... it's working)
I can't make phone calls so far. It says "call ended" as soon as I hit the green handset button.
Not sure if it helps the author of this thread, because going to Alpha releases for someone you want to stay in contact might not be a good idea. But i wanted to let Poisike know that his last release was on the right track !
@Poisike : Sorry, i'm new to this forum, so i can't post yet in Android Dev threads
Wow, it's a very good news that ICS Alpha 1 release for the GT8.9 3G version can receive phone calls over GSM. It may mean that make a phone call is doable.
can you share the link of ICS alpha where incoming calls work?

Also just to be clear, it's an Alpha release... So you may have the incoming phone call working, but then be disapointed because Camera is not working or something else.

Good find, thanks! I actually tried it when i built the rom and it didn't work. It is not a priority for me at the moment, so i didn't test it more. Now i realised i had a wrong sim card in so i called the wrong number.
I installed the ROM but nothing not receive calls ... please help ...
I have also done so reset date. no. By calling the number to be fast busy ...
For the rest there are always the same video problems in the rotation. Wifi and 3G are OK. Opening speed OK. I miss GSM calls ... this ROM would be just the TOP with the GSM CALLS!

Are you sure your SIM card can receive call or is it a data only subscription that you have ? Because i can't receive call on my Data only SIM card... only if I put my GSM SIM from my phone
here is how I set it up.
I've the ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.6.
-Reboot in recovery
-Wipe menu, wipe all data
-Install Rom from zip + wipe
-Install GoogleApps from zip
Nothing I have followed your instructions. My gtab 8.9 has the following characteristics:
Recovery v.5.1.2.6-CWM (I do not think is a problem to run wipe and install with this version)
I put sim in the phone and then work is also enabled with calls.
Give me a hand please ...

[Q] Does SKYPE work fully in XT860 2.3.6?

Hello,
I have an XT860 2.3.6 4G from Bell unlocked on Fido. I can 'use' skype, but it does not pick up my cameras. Is anyone able to make it work?
When I first bought I thought it would be a problem regarding the 2.3.4 build which did not have access to gtalk video call (I know it is not related to skype), but then 2.3.6 came out, gtalk started working, but I still can't make 100% video calls on SKYPE... I can only see other people, but they can't see me...
Any comment is appreciated!

You will have to uninstall your current skype to install this one. It has an advanced options menu that can force camera usage
