Android Lovers ,
Just got a link to a leaked built of Skype with Video conferencing.
The only drawback is it is working only on 4G devices , such as Thunderbolt, Epic 4G, Vibrant 4G etc
Need some expert devs to work on the apk to re-engineer it to work on other devices.

this really would be awesome, but i doubt it's that easy..

ok so we have had the leaked "gingerbread" sense rom for the inc and well i have been waiting for 720p on a aosp rom be it cyan or omfgb. i hate to ask and get some....uh....rude remarks but.....what is the hold up?....please enlighten me.
I think the CM team is waiting for htc to officially release gingerbread for the inc for drivers and stuff (i think )
Kernel source needs to drop too I believe.

Try install patched libOMXVdec.so file.
It works for N-1/Desire like 1st gen Snapdragon devices.

Going over those links you posted look like they are only for 720p playback, I think the op as well as a lot of other people, myself included; are looking for the ability to record video in 720p like in the stock Sense roms. And untill HTC drops the final gb release I don't see that happening anytime soon unless the CM devs can jerry-rig something together from the Evo release.
720p recording on this phone is, and always will be, utter crap. it skips, it stutters, it pixelates, and most importantly, the audio CONSTANTLY comes out of sync in every video. the video will get sped up and will end before the audio track ends. i think we just need to get a better phone to have TRUE 720p recording,.

Sadly I agree.
Now that HTC has released the GB kernel source for the Incredible, shouldn't we see 720p recording for AOSP ROMs soon? Is someone working on it?
Q: Do anyone have skype video working for evo 4g
Partially.

This is the apk that I have installed and video is working for me. Do not remember where I got it from though.

Thanks a lot
Hi, my girlfriend use an iphone 4 and well obviously I use SGS2.
is there a video call app other than skype? we've tried fring and qik, but really bad video quality.
so is there an app that will work for android + iphone 4?
i've tried the modded skype by pulser and the other dev(sorry i forgot), it has the video call feature but when use the video option, my gf accept the call but skype made it voice call, hence fail to video call~~
skype from phone should be able to make calls to desktop pc and iphone 4's skype right?
Try Tango...

To be honest, the video calling feature on android sucks. On iphone face time calling is clear and reliable, were as on android you have to resort to 3rd party apps, which pretty much suck. So you can't expect cross platform calling to work properly when android to android pretty much sucks. Av tried nearly all the available video calling apps, and none impressed me in comparison to face time calling.

Well, you've used TANGO? I tested and it worked very well here ... The Android version 2.3.4 supports Video calls of gtalk.

What about ooVoo? You can call mobile-mobile and pc-mobile with ooVoo. Take a look at their homepage, which is their name between www and com
Whatever works best for you!

well it says in their site coming soon for SGS2? found in browser's market but incompatible with device.
looks promising though.
I've used Skype from my phone to my friend's iPhone and the video quality was brilliant. Just make sure you're on WiFi. Don't forget, this is a requirement for facetime on iPhone, so that's the only way to compare quality.

thanks for the link but i have them already.
speaking of skype, i have problems video calling to iphone 4. calling to desktop computer has no problem though. when i called ip4, it connects to video for moment(but just black with the video buttons) then immediately changed to voice call and it will be changing forth or so until i end it. any clue?
Just tested with v5 and iPhone4 and iPod4 sgs2. One autoswitch to audio only in 20 test calls on wifi. Also limiting resolution in advanced options might help. I left it on auto.
One note. If your GF on iPhone has app off in suspend and not in app then after she accepts call she has to enable video manually by selecting camera icon and choosing which camera she wants to use.

Perfectly smooth video on Tango for me too.
Tested and works on:
SGS <-> SGS
SGS <-> iCrap Touch
I know that on market seem like only Samsung phone support the native 3G video calling for GB, ICS or JB stock rom.
But when come to customize rom like CM9/CM10 the 3G video calling feature is missing.
Always wonder why CM9/CM10 ICS based rom doesn't support 3G video calling.
Izit because copyrighted (or somesort of patented by Samsung) so couldn't include it into CM9/CM10 rom?
Is there possible to intergrate 3G video calling code from other rom (e.g. s3 ics/jb rom which support 3G video call) to our SGW ICS/JB rom?
That would be wonderful for our Galaxy Wonder.
I often use line or skype for video chatting, never use 3g because I think using internet videocall is fast enough and no lag for me
cheers
too bad, it's not about fast/no lag comparing in internet video calling or 3G video calling.
As in certain country internet plan still expensive for us to make internet video call compare to 3G video calling.
Plus not all of my friends have internet plan/smartphone for video calling, but mostly have at least nokia 5800 kinda phone for 3G video call, that's why.

I agree with you Andrew, like in my field of work we always had 3G test video call every time there is a network upgrade/modification.

I forgot where I read about it, but here's a reason why ROMs based on AOSP (including CM and AOKP) has no video call: Because the codec used to compress the video in a 3G video call is heavily patented, and the patentholders demand royalty payment for each and every device using that codec.
Samsung, Nokia, etc., they all are phone sellers. They make money for every phone sold, so they can 'absorb' the patent-licensing fee. CM, AOKP, and others, they work for free, they just can't pay the licensing fee.
Until the patents covering 3G video call expire, don't expect to see 3G video anytime soon.

well have my 3g video calling back. I am now on Neat Rom with Siyah kernel. enjoying the stock ROM with a little mod just enough to suite my needs

i also miss that option since in my network the video calls are free!!
Anyone know about licensing native video calling (3G) on samsung stock rom,,,,
I've read about the license, only certain producers who have, for example, the manufacturer of the sony does not have a license but samsung and nokia have it.
what anyone tries to inject the license into costume rom CM / MIUI / AOKP / AOSP and others....
I dunno about licensing, but I was wondering how does the 3G video call work. I mean, isn't there some configuration that it needs to get working ?
additional ....
I see supercopy Samsung devices, and there has 3G video calling, we know device is not made on samsung original .
how can these devices have 3g video calling?
