skype video not working - Motorola Droid 4

My mother has a droid 4. I'm living in Germany and have been trying to troubleshoot over the internet why she can't get her video on Skype to work. Any tips?

Have you tried to have her uninstall/ reinstall? I was having a similar problem and that fixed it.

Youtube not working on HSDPA

Hi all, when i first got my diamond, it played youtube clips via HSDPA internet without any problems. Since i've installed newer roms, youtube does not play clips anymore. The only way to get it to work is activate Wifi, and play it through wifi internet. With HSDPA internet, i can download lists and search for clips in the youtube application, but as soon as i try to start the clip, it errors after a while saying the clip cannot be played. Im using the newest official dutch rom 2.03.404.2NLD with Vodafone. A friend of mine, who has the same phone and rom, has the same problem. I've tried installing different versions of the youtube application, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Does anyone else have this problem?
Does your ROM have the Adobe Flash player?
Yep, i've installed several flash lite versions, no luck... Strange thing is, every once in a while it will load the movie, so it seems like some movies will actually load. Still, when I turn on Wifi, it'll allways loads the clips... BTW, i have full clearance, so it isn't like im not getting enough 3G signal...
Got the same problem.
I'm using a rooted Samsung I5700 (spica) and youtube fails to play videos over HSDPA. - It loads thumbnails and all the other bits and parts.
Wifi works. 2G works. And 3G works if I disable HSDPA.
So what is wrong?

[Q] Mobile Video, aka Cellular Video

Hi all,
Does anyone else out there use Mobile Video, aka Cellular video? I have noticed that in the past few weeks it doesn't stream correctly anymore. Does anyone else have this issue? I love using CV to watch shows on my phone but it doesn't work anymore.
I wonder if the later firmware updates will fix this or not?
Thanks everyone.

[Q] Weird Wifi Problem

Hi guys;
I bought an optimus 4x hd, unfortunately there is some connection issues, actually its connect wifi and surfing web without problem, but when i watch any video on web its stop after a while. For example i can't watch TED talks, because videos stop streaming after 01:30 usually, same as at TED Air and Youtube videos.
Weirdly its not happening on 3G connection, its happening only on wifi.
Does anybody have same issue? What is wrong about my phone? Thanks...

Some pages require "Flash Player", even if they said that we don't need it or not compatible with ICS 4.0.3...
You can try install "Flash Player" and "Adobe Air", probably will help.
To see youtube videos its better to have the youtube app. You can find it in PlayStore.

MIght be a problem with your Wifi? I have never had such issues. Is it on any Wi-Fi?
no problems here also , working perfect on wifi and 3g, i can watch a whole movie on youtube. Using V10f ,rooted.
I already have flash player and adobe air, helps nothing. Yes, its happening only on wifi, 3g connection is fast and perfect.
My modem brand name is "Airties", maybe its because of my modem type. Also i've learned that this problem is common issue at phones with İCS 4.03.
Thanks for replys though.
Despite the 4x HD i have Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 5.0 ( known Galaxy Player) too, Gingerbread 2.3.6 on it, there is no wifi or video streaming problems, so i think its must be something with ICS.

Issues with video call

Hello,
I have JB retail brazil installed in my phone, and have a problems with Tango calls and skype calls. When i make video calls, the front cam makes an excessive zoom and the other person can only see my eyes and my nose, i have to back up a meter so then can see my face. I see no one min this forum has the same problem as me, what can i do. I tried changing to other JB firmwares but with the European version I have the same problem with video calls and even lost my 3g network. I have changed to ICS and back to JB a lot of times. Can some one help me please??
I have the same issue
Hi, I have the same issue with videocalls on Razr i. But, when I'm using the camera software with front facing camera, the video is ok, with a good distance. I`m using the stock ROM from Motorola and the problem affects Skype and Hangouts.
Still

After some months and instaling several stock JB roms, i haven't been able to solve this. Do you have a development motorola razr i, I mean the development previous version before motorola released the final. where did you buy your phone (country)? what ROM is installed?
Same problem
Hi Guys,
I have the same problem with the same apps. I have a Razr i with original JB ROM from Motorola.
I try to find something on the web but untill now I didn't find anything to help.
I have the same problem with both Skype and Google Hangouts. I need to check out some other 3rd party camera apps to see if they have the same issue - or if it's just video.
Problems also on Tango
I've tested on Tango and it presented a "big zoom" as Skype and Hangouts.
It is a problem thats comes from the "conector" used by these apps. The stock camera doesn't show the same problem, mybe because it uses "another" way to access the camera hardware.
In order to test this, I installed Vignette and it doesn't show the problem.
So, there are at least 2 way to access the front facing camera, and the way that video chating apps uses shows the problem about de the zoomed video.
Does any one know something about a patch, an app, or did other tests to localize the origin of the issue?
Same Issue
No update to this thread? I tried a few ROMs; have the same issue as described above in Skype and Hangouts, camera app is fine, no zoom.
I had this problem and it used to happen while I was in the middle of the call. I solved it by going to /system/data/data/com.skype.../files/app.properties and changing this line [device.video.preview.zoom=true] to [device.video.preview.zoom=false] and then it stopped zooming right straight to my face
