Hello Guys,
Please could some one give some advice how can I use my BT using Skype ?
because is not convenient some times ...
Thanks
My understanding is that this is not possible. Skype - by default - handles the audio signal differently - via data connection, not the GSM connection. So, the only way to get it to a headset is to use the plugged in version
Thats probably true because I can get my bt8010 to work with skype but either I lose sound on my end or the callers end and I know its not the headsets fault. The program starts running really really slow like it doesn't have enough bandwidth or something..
Its still in beta so hopefully it gets addressed..
HI
I think about buying a TP2 and i wondering about Skype over the phone data link (Telstra NextG) not Wi-Fi which has been confirmed working.
Thanks
What do you want to know? Yes Skype works over 3G!
according to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532563
"I got it worrking. What's the problem? Only works on WIFI though
(at least I think, never tried diffrent)"
Skype on THE TP2 only work thought the wifi and not the data network link 3G!
So dose Skype on the TP2 work with the data network like Telstra NextG ?
thanks of any help
I believe Skype works on both WiFi and on 3G (HDSPA better I guess). Quarintis says it works ONLY on WiFi, however, he has never tried to use it on 3G. What a way to make a statement.
Be careful though that most carriers do not allow for Skype, streaming media etc over 3G or HSDPA networks. Not even with "unlimited internet" accounts.
HI, I use Skype over 3G. There is no technical problem unless your 3G provider blocks the port!
It works perfectly over the loud speaker and earphones.
However, I can hear well over bluetooth but my own voice sounds like a duck... (clip naro model)
Thanks for your help

Does this mean it works fine also in the Straight Talk mode where you turn the phone over flat on its face?
I make a lot of Skype calls from home over WiFi and I'd love to stop using a PC headset and use a proper phone instead. So with Straight Talk speaker phone + Skype that would be excellent because I can just have it sitting on my desk and don't need to hold anything.

the activation of the hands free mode by putting the phone upside down on the desk works only in normal calls.
skype per default routes all its audio through the rear loudspeakers. unfortunately their sound gets recorded by the microphne resulting in a massive echo. You probabely dont want to use skype in that configuration. The alternatives are:
1. a bluetooth headset
2. the wired headset that comes with the phone
3. routing the audio through the ear-piece (it is to silent to get recorded by the microphone)
of course none of the 3 options gives you the hands free experience
Anyone know how to make video calls on it (through Wi-Fi)? I cant seem to find the settings for the camera.

You can't find it simply because the current version of Skype mobile unfortunately does not support video calls.
Teksoft AudioRoute
Hi all
AudioRoute by Teksoft alows you to have skype calls come out the phone's earpiece, like a regular call. I think Fring does this automatically. I think they've got a thread here somewhere.

Using the cabled earphones, just plug it and it works with Skype.. no need anything else! or do you mean Audioroute helps for bluetooth earpiece?
anybody get skype to work over bluetooth? i downloaded both programs and can't figure out how to get it to work here.
thanks.
i had an xperia and there was a skype version for it that would let you hear the sound from the earpiece, wich is more convenient if you are not using handsfree. See, you can let the sound go trough the speaker, but not always handy if you are in private talk. audioroute works, but it's just not that convenient to switch between the speakers all the time.
So... xperia's version of skype does install on tp2, but when starting the app it says that the tp2 is not an xperia, obviously... so... how to bypass that? anyone?

sorry for my english
dav000, how did you get skype to output sound to the bluetooth? it is not a built in feature to do this.
I've tried using Skype over NextG with my TP2, and have had nothing but extremely awful results. Horrible lag makes any Skype call over the air illegible. The only decent Skype calls I've made with the unit has been over wifi. Basically, it lags so much over Telstra that all you hear is wharblgarbl while it races to catch up. Calls skype to skype over NextG are marginally better.
For that matter, Fring over NextG is also as awful. Simply cannot make VOIP calls over the NextG network with the TP2.
It's a shame, too. With my nokia e51, you could still make Fring calls even if there was about a 2 second delay.
Mileage may vary in the city, though, but certainly not in the parts of Melbourne that I've tried (CBD, Melbourne East). I do live in country Victoria, but NextG here is still tons faster than Edge, but just can't seem to handle Skype. Knowing Telstra, maybe they've blocked the ports.

Hi all,
Whilst I have read over many posts, I can't find a definitive answer. Does Fring on its own work through the earpiece? I have a TP2 with the latest NRG rom but can't get it to go through the earpiece.. tried many things..
Has anyone else have any method of using SIP over the TP2 and have it go through the earpiece without having to use audio route?
I have just realised that even with AudioRoute installed, the audio is still not getting sent through to the ear piece...
Thanks..
fring
it works like a charm, no need of audio route...
I'm playing with Skype so I can take it to Afghanistan with me. I will primarily us my PC but really want to use my cell phone as well, this will be most helpful in airports and such where I don't want to pull out the computer.
My problem is Skype on Windows mobile you have to use a headset. Does anyone have experiance with this? I tried just using my iPod head set because it they were just laying there but still could not hear and sound. Is there a special set of headphone we need to use with the HTC Dongles or something along those lines? Thanks a bunch!
I've tried more than 5 different VOIP apps on my One X and the problem is that every time when it connects to a call, the other party can be heard on my earpiece and speaker! I face the same with Skype too! and some VOIP clients keep disconnecting too...
Are you guys facing the same problem? Is there a solution for this or is it a software glitch?
