You can now video chat on certain phones (Nexus S included)!
It works phone to phone, phone to iphone/ipad, phone to pc!

Anyone got this working ?
Just downloaded it, and video doesn't seem to be working on my phone.
But neither does Gmail push, but thats another story...
Can anyone confirm it working ?

Apparently the apk has been hacked to work on some other phones apart form the official ones.
Anyone know how to hack this for the NS4G ??

Dunno about anyone else, but update 2.0.0.47 STILL does NOT give me video calling on my Nexus S 4G on Sprint.

Same. If you have a backup of a stock ROM try it on that.
I tried today and it worked very well!

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.

Just purchased the Atrix HD yesterday and when standing only 10 feet away from my router it constantly connects and disconnects. So far this has been the only issue for me. Any hacks yet for better wi-fi strength?

i dont know if its called att wifi app or att hotspot app but i disabled att hotspot app and after that i never had any problem with wifi!! there is a Starbucks real close to my house and they have att hotspot so when ever i drive around it would connect to att hotspot and i would have hard time connecting to my home wifi!! just go to your apps option inside settings find att hotspot and disable it since you cannot uninstall this app!! it might help!!:good:

I had same problem. The wifi turns off 2 seconds after I turn the wifi on. I did factory reset. After the reset, it seems it solve the problem but I had other issues so I did an exchange since it was with in 14 days of the purchase. I don't have that problem with the new HD.
Try doing factory reset....

I'm having the exact same problem. Mine will connect for a period of time then just starts a wifi boot loop, as I would describe it. It tries to connect endlessly and won't unless I'm right next to the router. A factory reset didn't fix it either.

I never accepted the at&t wifi app agreement, so it was never running, but still had the same issue. It seems better now that its forced to 2.4ghz. I still have range issues. my Atrix 4G would show two bars of signal where the Atrix HD connects and disconnects constantly. Its like i have to be sitting right in front of the router to stay connected.

I wasn't having any issues last night after switching to 2.4 only. But when I woke up it was disconnected and wouldn't connect again til I was right by the router. Hopefully a software update fixes this issue.

Wow, that's cool. Didn't move, switched to 2.4 only and my signal strength doubled and my speed seems noticeably better.
Now if this helps from oovoo and Skype constantly disconnecting life will be good. To be fair the inspire is also disconnecting at random too.
I had this problem as well - it dropped if my wi-fi was 2 bars or so, and it seemed to fluctuate. Tried the 2.4 only mode and it seemed to help a little, but I still lost connection frequently at only 2 bars. It would drop and look like wi-fi restarted and then connect again at 3 bars.
Disable AT&T Smart Wifi.

I took the phone back to costco and got a new one. The phone rep connected the new phone to his wifi. I walked to the other side of the warehouse and never lost connection. Came home and the phone has not disconnected once. Must have been a hardware issue.

I'm 100% stock with the latest update! My One will get stuck with the 3g arrow up like it's uploading something...While this is happening I have no data connection. The only way to fix it is toggle airplane mode on/off and this only happens when my phone is on 3g.
Can this be a defective unit, App or maybe because sprint is working on NV all around me? I started receiving lte 2 weeks ago.
Btw this occurrs once every few days give or take

Ur not alone.......I've experienced this on several phones, including Samsung. Don't know what causes it, but the data toggle trick that you mentioned always works for me.
I haven't experienced this with any other phone except this 1 I will keep a close eye on it.

How many times can one return a phone for replacement for the same issue? At some point can I request a different device? I'm on my second "one" and it has the same connectivity issues my first one had. Can I at some point ask for a different phone.

You haven't described the type of issue that you're having. Remember, the bars only indicate voice signal strength.

3 swaps within 1 year. This would be through Asurion. At the Sprint store they will swap it 3 times before offering you a comparable model. If you want to keep the same phone then they can swap it as many times, in store, as you would like.

I can be using various apps like poker F.B or even the browser. Take the internet for instance. I can be using it and at any time it will loose connection. Same with playing poker. While I usually get connected within a minute, it's still annoying. I can't tell that I have good connection cause when it is on it loads pages fairly quick.

I get that a lot on my Note 2. Usually its the phone switching back and forth from ehrpd to 1xrtt. Either your towers are being worked on or are over capacity like mine.. Worst data experience ever. After 10yrs I might bite the bullet and switch carriers, can't take it any longer..

Until your area is complete or a Radio update is released your phone will continue to act like this..Only way I could make mine stable was to run it in CDMA mode only and completely ignore 4G until more towers fill the gaps.

I get the same issue and have come to find a workaround that fixes it. This only works for 3G, but if you switch your network settings from LTE/CDMA to CDMA only you won't have any issues. I never get the issues that you explain while on 4G, but I constantly get them on 3G. Get that fix a try and let me know if it works :good:
Go into settings them power and turn off data sleep.

Call sprint. Have them verify your SIM ID and UICC ID under settings/about/Phone Identity. Make sure they have the same number on your account as the phone. They may argue with you that the number doesn't matter accept for International but make them check anyways. If you have 4G in your area it will matter.....or even if its just Network Vision. Just keep pressing them to verify. If they are different have them connect you to activation's and have them fix it.
I've noticed that yes the one switches between wifi/3g/4g much more smoothly, but also noticing it dropping those signals much more frequently too and struggling to reconnect if it drops it. As in, I can have a data connection, then none at all out of nowhere without moving, and a couple of minutes later it reconnects.
I was even just sitting here at home where I have full signal on wifi and saw it drop wifi too. This never happened on the previous base... Sigh... Nothing is ever perfect...

I've noticed that my phone is holding onto lte better inside today since the update. It was usually dropping to 3g once I started doing anything.
but it's ok to eat fish cause they don't have feelings.....
I'm dropping calls like crazy lately, but it really started before the update, so I can't say it's because of that.... Sprint really sucks lately, dropping calls left and right, signal dropping out all the time, and slower than slow 3g

Mine got better with the update. I can hold a call for over an hour in my house with 1 bar just like my old phone. before the update it would drop after 5-15 min. Also I am running into far less places where I simply can't use data despite having signal. I think there is still room for improvement.
When I first flashed the update everything seemed to working smoother and seemed to hold a better 4G signal. By the second day my WiFi would drop in and out, my 4G won't hold when I know have full 4G coverage. Sometimes I don't have a signal at all. Like that is my only pet peeve about this phone. What's the use of having the best phone if one of its primary functions doesn't work properly? I'm definitely looking to get something new at this point.

I was having similar issues, I think it had to do with the fact that it was an in-place upgrade. I did a factory wipe, and the One is behaving much better.
