Hi, I have in installed skype on my mda, however all though i can log in, my chats seem to be one way, if somebody starts a chat with me i see the chat start, when i reply i dont see my txt, is this normal for skype on ppc.
Thanks
Known issue.
And you are lucky that at least your skype starts, because for most of us can't even get to that stage.
Skype seems to work *only* when you have 18mb of program memory or above.. If you drop below 18mb, it simply won't start.. It's working on my Exec but I'm having the same issue with BetoX...
If you minimize skype and look at something else, the received messges pop up as a notification
Thank's guys, after i hit send in Skype i then hit the volume icon which comes to the foreground , i now get all my replys as you suggested, at least it's a good quick fix, thanks once again

Hey all,
This is a great forum, plenty to read and I've done a search but been unable to find an exact answer.
I installed Black about a week ago on my T-Mobile MDAII and for the most part it rocks like a motherhubbard. There is one annoying thing though - it often won't come out of standby.
The light will be flashing on the top, but pushing the power buttond does nothing and if you call the phone, nothign happens (you can hear ringing, but my hermes doesn't actually ring).
I had SPB mobile shell installed, but I read some posts saying this might be the problem, so I uninstalled it. I also installed the t-mobile .cab so i could get my web'n'walk stuff back.
I also have OggSync to sync my phone to my google calendar, but I've switched off the auto update feature, which means it only runs when I tell it.
I also installed SPB finance, but haven't even run that once yet.
The only thing I can do, is a soft reset to get it working again.
I installed the VOIP, VJ555 Utils and Windows Live & Messenger optional extras, although I uninstalled VJ555 Utils.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
Why don't you give Black 3.5 (aka Black Dymond) a shot?
I've installed bepe's WWE WM6 ROM for a while now. I'm have a lot of troubles with the pre-installed live messenger. I can't change my name, can't change screen image, the program freezes when i try to log in, online users are shown as offline, my email doesn't arrive (with push email), in short: looks like a crappy program to me. But i don't hear much complaints in the forum here. Are some of you experiencing this problems also with B&B ROM?
Btw: i've tried all basic advices: turning shared screen-image in the desktop messenger, clearing the password, switching users...no results...
Hi,
Some people seem to suggest this comes from an incompatibility issue between the thumbnail (user image) format on Windows and Windows Mobile. I'm however not so sure about this. I've bumbed into this issue several times and the only way to work around is by switching 'accounts' and just logging in to the same account again after picking this option.
The problem happens on all WM6 ROMs I tried so don't even bother trying different versions, unless perhaps an official WWE ROM is released.
Grtzzzzz Roel..

i seem to have found a solution
I have a dutch version of Live Messenger installed on my computer, (because i come from holland ), so i can't give you the exact option names. But i'll try to explain:
In Live Messenger (on your desktop) there are two options:
- showing screen image to other users (your msn contacts)
- keeping screen image and personal message always the same, wherever you login
the last option seems to do the trick: put it OFF on your desktop Messenger. Now i can sync, change nickname, screen image, personal message and see all online users on my P3300!
EDIT:
CRAP! Yesterday no troubles, now i'm not able to see any online users this program is driving me mad! I ll wait for a newer version before wasting any time on it...good job microsoft
i have tried several versions of Messenger, none of which work properly. looked though other forums, none had an answer, that i could see. i have been using Shapesoft IM+, it works, but nowhere near as nice as Messenger used too.
I hope the new HTC ROM will bring the solution...
I have been running the duttyfix windows live messenger on a kaiser for a few weeks without problem on the standard orange ROM with some additional cabs installed.
However since yesterday messenger has repeatedly failed to sign in with the error message "there is a problem with this server, please try again later"
I have tried to reinstall the cab after removing the original and have made no other ammendments software wise. I wondered if this was something that other people were experiencing currently? internet access on wifi and 3g is fine and i have no other handsets in this location to do a test with a different unit.
If anyone can post comment its appreciated. thanks
Update .. have installed the old CAB for pocket PC and this is working fine .. letting me access messenger with no problems but without the obvious add ons of messenger live.
Just making me even more puzzled now lol. Has anyone contact microsoft over this and if so have they had any suggestions?
D
What options do I have for Skype on my desire? I want to do the obvious calls but SMS would be good too.
There is a 'skype beta lite' app that you can google and although it is clean I could'nt get it to take my number in the UK.
I've found the skype in the 'Fring' app to do it the best so far.
Nimbuzz should have it as well, I think. And the tests which I read (androidpit dot de - German only) said that Fring is clearly inferior to Nimbuzz.
another nimbuzz vote here
Will try nimbuzz as fring is useless for me, it diesn't let you add contacts on the fly and I can't even make calls because the speaker shuts off!
Let me know how you get on with Nimbuzz. I tried Fring and the call quality was poor, with a audio delay on top of it.
Installed and tried Nimbuzz. Sound quality is better than on Fring.
BTW: anybody knows if and how you can delete a fring account?
Traffic?
Does anyone have an idea about the amount of bandwidth/traffic skype uses? Like for one minute? I'm on a 200MB per month plan...

I don't think you can even change your password on fring!
Can you send SMS with Nimbuzz or even add new Skype contacts?
yes u can add contacts for any IM account; skype, msn, etc

GREAT! Sounds so much better then fring!
Nimbuzz seems to give my Desire problems ... keeps going slow, random reboot, never happened before, uninstalled and all is fine ... also it never seemed to work anyway!
strange. work fine here even prior to the latest update.
Nimbuzz working perfectly for all things and Skype now. For some reason though it finds it quite hard to connect sometimes, especially on a low connection where Fring seems to work either way.
Quite annoying on Nimbuzz where if Skype (or any of the accounts) does not connect first time there is no option to retry just delete the account.
Did you try Fring?

I noticed that too. also noticed my battery was draining alot quicker than usual - even after exiting the application.
And sometimes even when the app isnt running, I get an error message saying it's crashed and needs to be closed. This happens mainly when ever i turn wifi on/off.
anyone know an app that does group chat on skype?

I don't use wi-fi but had generally the same issues. It brought my phone in some cases to a halt!
Is there any "Skype" app or other app that can be used to use Skype account for calling non-skype landlines / mobile phones ?
Paid calls using Skype credits ... via Android.
I tried Nimbuzz, but it cant ... yes, Nimbuzz is not Skype client, this is obvious.
My only hope is "NimbuzzOut":
http://www.nimbuzz.com/en/nimbuzzout
But then again, there is no Android client still
Yes, Fring on Android can use Skypeout, so skype credits or any other SIP like voicebuster.
Haven't personally checked it but a friend tried it already and it works
Hi mates.
i have problem with skype on my galaxy s2.
skype doesnt show online contacts.
when i open skype on my computer i see many of my friends online.
but if i open skype from my galaxy s2, all contacts are offline.
i can chat and make calls if they write me. but i cant see them online.
any solution?
Use a reworked SKYPE
Hi not sure to which version of skype your using is it the official?
D/L v11 from within this link there no need to use the current one on homepage of Skype http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18290748&postcount=1492 Also read full detail from this link on operation and settings.
PS Uninstall current of skype and install above.
i downloaded and setup this version.
now i see 2 online people and one of it Echo/Sound test service
but i check skype from my computer there are 10 of my contacts online.
how can it be? i dont understand..
Just for your info I can see my contact on my SGS2 when their online but not always from my laptop... try rebooting phone to see if that helps.
