skype recently released a new version of skype for video calling on android phones (Nexus S, Desire S, Xperia Neo and Xperia Pro). is there any way we could make the video feature work on our xperia arc's back cam? i installed it but currently theres no option to do video.
no replies yet.
anyway : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1148708
download skype from here. install on xperia arc. and start with an audio call and then enable video. never start with a video call or the fone will be stuck in landscape.
p.s the video call quality is very goood
Arc does not have a secondary cam maybe Skype software might look for it. That's why it doesn't load the video.
it works. after the video call starts, click the camera button and select back cam.

what setting do you use?
As the Xperia Arc and Play has a lot of similarity in terms of the software, firmware version, is it possible to port the fantastic user friendly Arc defaults camera apps to PLAY?
Our PLAY camera is not worse than any other 5.1MP camera as I have tried it out few days. However, the UI is quite awkward...

Ofcourse it's possible. As you may have noticed we seem to have a shortage of developers for the xplay maybe when doomlord gets his play he MAY look into it
Thanks for your reply, I found PLAY is a bit unique from Arc and Neo. Not sure if it is a good thing. Fortunately it now updated with the HD video recording which make it more fun for the camera.

totaly agreed need to be ported only zhdzu can do it
May I know what or who is zhdzu?
I personally like the default camera app, and there are a few panorama apps in the market, I know they arn't as good as Sony's but whatever if you want a proper 360 view just record it.
What is so special about the Arc's camera anyway?

Its not very special, but its kind of bot fair as the Xperia series should all share the same camera apps that design by the Sony Ericsson. But as you can see, only Play is using the default camera apps that comes with the Android gingerbread...
Why Play does not deserve to get the better SE camera apps? Since it is the Playstation Phone Flagship of the company and its camera spec is fully compatible with the Arc's camera app.
Hi,
Does anybody knows if Doom is working on porting the ARC camera app to PLAY, I know he just got his newly Xperia PLAY, so I'm excited about what he will be able to create for ous phones.
Sorry for grave digging but has anyone made progress with this? I HATE the gingerbread camera app, it's quite unresponsive (compared to iPhones) and would love to try out one made by SE

Nobody knows anything?
Hi!
Could anybody help how to use a stable 2way callrecorder application on the phone?
and wich?
thanx a lot!
happy new year!!
I'm looking for the semcCamera.apk that has that feature that allows you to take a picture from the lockscreen. I've looked through most of the threads and came up empty. It was a youtube video of the Xperia S or sola I'm not sure...Google didn't turn up anything. 'preciate if anybody could help or share.
Its not just a camera.apk its a whole phone that you are looking for. It doesn't matter if this app can take photos from the lockscreen if the lockscreen is not compatible with it.This feature probably must be also supported in a framework so I think its not possible.
Thanks for clarifying that for me. I figured all you had to do was download the camera from the xperia z to the xperia arc s and just change the permissions so it'll work. All I really wanted was that burst mode feature while you're using the camcorder on the xperia z. Oh well.
Hi,
I've got big problem with call recording.
I tested a lot of apps from Google Play but no one works for me. You can only hear crack sound but an conversation is not recorded on my phone.
Does anyone have the same problem as me?
Rooted Xperia M Single with newest stock firmware.
I've got also Xperia Live with Walkman, here everything works (for example Call Recoder app).
