Yeah, the official Skype app (in the market) is brilliant, even for just chatting !

I use nimbuzz, and I`m pretty satisfied. Even calls are great using Skype account.

for some reason Skype app wouldn't work, i think i read it only runs on wifi? or that may have been a different app, i already have it installed so i will give it another go^^

for me skype works great also for calling (now)

It works over WiFi and 3G but in the US calling works only over WiFi.
Ah well, I use it regularly and it's fine!

Though when I tried using skype over 3G it was next to useless, even with good reception

Has been a while since this thread opened but I decided to post it anyway for all the people out there that they still need Skype working in US over 3G..

Try Flashing a New ROM, or Restoring a Backup... What Exactly are you Looking for? Also What ROM are you Currently Running?
Here's a Link that "Might" Help???

Handcent mms not working

Is anyone experiencing issues with Handcent MMS not working. I'm running VirusROM with adrynaline 4.4.2 kernel. Any help/suggestions are appreciated
Sent from Ced's Thunderbolt XDA app - Infected with the VirusROM

If you look at the comments in the market(I know it's not the best place for reliable info), you will see a lot of people are having issues with the most recent build of 3.8.2. I had no problems with it up until about 2 weeks ago, then it slowed down like crazy. Lag between getting a text, and being notified of a text. Not getting MMS. Not actually sending texts out.
I switched to GoSMS to get rid of the issue. It worked for what it was. I went ahead and threw CM7 on my bolt last night/this morning and figured I'd give it a shot. It works fine on that, but on Das Bamf remix 1.5 it sucked.

Works for me. das BAMF 1.5 Remix (4.4.2 kernel) w/ new radio.

same for me

Jus tried goSMS, and to no avail. Maybe its a ROM issue. Anyone with VirusROM having this issue?

Works great so far bamf 1.5 with latest radio. However on my d1 in the past after extended use it would lag and stop sending messages and had horrible mms issues. But for now running two weeks strong....

Same here. No problems.

You didn't delete the stock mms/sms app did you?

Actually I did. I kinda figured that was the issue so then I downloaded the stock MMS/SMS app and still no luck. Im running out of ideas and it seems no one is responding with suggestions, only telling me their not having this issue and is not even using the same ROM I am. Would you happen to have any other ideas?

I'd imagine you'd get more info if you explained what issues you are having.

I cant send or receive MMS. i get an error stating service not activated on network, though i do have txt msg on my account.

May have to call Verizon.

No, just reinstall virus, you'll be fine. Sometimes the stock apps don't like to be re-installed.

Wasn't CM 10.1 the most stable and functioning?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343586
I know CM 11 works with most stuff, just some random issues the camera (takes video just fine, but snapchat video doesn't work?), MMS doesn't work, and some apps don't work nice. Of course, that is KitKat, so you may not be interested.

I'd stay away from 10.1. Most developers scrapped working on it as soon as 11 came out for a reason. Other than MMS most people are reporting no bugs with albinoman's (when properly done). All comes down to what version of gapps you use.
If you can live with no MMS which most can, enjoy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524934

Yeah, cm11 is working better for me than cm10.1 did, but I do notice that Netflix does not work for me. Is that due to my gapps version? Netflix released an update a day ago or so, and it seems to be working on other kitkats out there.

I'm running the kitkit version and I am very happy with it but I don't netflix... I thought reading through the forum for that development though that people had a work around for the netflix thing so you might want to search that just in case?

I did find a workaround some weeks ago, but after I posted it in albinoman's thread, the nightlies were able to run Netflix without issue, so problem solved!

For those with MMS problems on kitkat

I recently purchased a Straight Talk plan ($45/mo) so I could use my Vivid as a phone. I have consistently been updating my ROM and testing out CM10.x, CM11, RR, PAC, AOKP... Anyway, while using the latest PAC rom, I noticed that I too had issues with sending and receiving MMS messages. Rignfool had previously posted a fix wherein one would download hangouts and use that, but I did not have success with this method (it might have been because I'm on ST as opposed to AT&T, or maybe I've always been flashing hangouts as a replacement default SMS app).
Anyway, I found that in my situation (clean install of PAC rom 8-6-2014 (android 4.4.4), flashing stock pa gapps, and flashing a backup of my user apps made through Titanium Backup), installing 8sms and then choosing it as my default SMS app in settings (just called "messaging" in my case). I made no changes to my APN at this point (my settings APN was Straight AT&T, tfdata), and sending pictures worked without a hitch!
I'm making this thread to discuss any ways to fix/workaround any MMS issues, with the hopes of uncluttering the development threads and actually getting solutions to those with problems.

Hangouts installed as a user app, or as a system app (I assume when you flash the full modular or stock pa gapps it gets installed as a system app)?
