[Q] Skype front video for Froyo?

Been waiting forever for an official gingerbread release for my P1000 (UK unlocked version) but for now Froyo works fine except that Skype can not use the front facing camera.
Is there a modified Skype apk allowing the front camera to work on this Tab P1000 running Android 2.2?

I'm sure I'm not the only one looking for this (just a shame I can't find any threads that may be addressing this issue)

Only gingerbread can do this. (>2.3.4)

Sounds like we should sue samsung for false advertising. They do say the front facing camera is 'ideal for video chat'. Just saying ...

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.

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

[Q] After 4.4.4 update, Screen Mirroring doesn't work!

Hello everyone!
My phone has been running Stock 4.3 since it went out. Fact is that I always used Screen Mirroring feature with no problems over that version, but yesterday I updated my Galaxy S3 i9305 to the latest firmware, 4.4.4. Now, don't know why my phone can't connect to my SmartTV as well as it always did.
Can anyone tell me any reason, please? My phone is running quite well, but not with that feature wich I use so often...
Thanks in advanced

Please!! No one's gonna help me? Pleeeeeaseee!!!

tried a factory reset? or did it when installing this update?

Of course! I installed this firmware for twice. First time the German version, and after that the official 4.4.4 for i9305. It never worked on none of them. My phone is working better than ever and flawlessly, but missed that feature... just now when I bought a Smart TV :'( why this is happening to me? :'(

Hi. Only you (and me) have "this" problem? When samsung rolls out 4.3, there was trouble too with miracast. Solved with a future 4.3 *patch* from samsung. I think we only have to wait for a 4.4.4 patch... ?

It may depend on your TV aswell.
I have a Sony KDL W905. And I am unable to use Screen mirroing with this phone on both 4.12 as well as the new 4.4.4 firmware.
For that matter I am also unable to use it from my Galaxy Note8 running 4.4. So I am starting to suspect the TV..
Oddly enough when using screen mirroring from the video app, it works fine.

Welll... i don't have tv with miracast or google chromecast. I have a Measy A2W. It works with 4.3, now with 4.4.4 don't...

Okay. yesterday reinstalled the stock ROM 4.4.4. Before had done a factory reset. The Miracast screen mirroring worked. but, after doing root, crashed. The problem is in the root. anyone have a solution? Thank you

I have the same problem. Are you sure it's in rooting?

S3 with auto-update to 4.4.4. : screen mirroring doesn't work any more!
Same problem here. I used screen mirroring frequently on my Samsung S3 with the previous standard Android OS, 4.3.
TV: Smart TV, SAMSUNG UE40H7005LED
I installed the scheduled Samsung update to 4.4.4. and screen mirroring doesn't work any more.
My wife has the same phone, did the same update, and it doesn't work on here phone either any more!
Both phones are standard, of the shelf phones, not rooted.
Something is wrong in this update!
Any solutions?

CM12 & Android Wear

Hi there!
From the very beginning CM12 was available for the Z3C I installed the latest nightly's ever since.
I own a LG G watch R and it worked fine on the stock ROM that came with the phone.
Since CM12 I'm unable to pair the Z3C with the G watch R. It's just not showing up in the Android Wear app nor in Bluetooth settings when I try to search for it.
Also, when I try to search for my Z3C on the watch in settings, I cannot find it either.
Is someone able to point me in the right direction? Is this a known bug?
Excuse me if i'm creating a double thread or asking for something that is already known.
Greetings.
