Is anyone else having problems using Skype on a stock ROM? I'm on Stock rooted with Bell and when I try videochatting with a friend, the screen turns purple and random little colorful dots are all over the screen; my video output is the same for the person on the other end as well.. anyone have any ideas what's up?

So to make things clear, both you and the person who is being chatted with have random dots?
Yeah same issues here. GTalk video works fine, but Skype video is wrong on both ends.
Mine does this too, sometimes red or blue or green as well.
I'm on CM10 .

Yes, both ends have the random dots. But when I use AOKP, it works perfectly, which is weird.. Nobody has a fix for this?
I had the same problem with my ATT GS3. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to fix it, and just ended up exchanging the phone for a new one. Works perfectly now.

It's in the play store so I'm sure it's supported but maybe not on CM10. Having same issues running CM10 nightly 11/06 but was having same issues on stock. Don't think they would exchange just for Skype app not working but lucky you if they did an exchange Evilweasel47 :good:
Just tried google+ video and front and back camera work without green dots or any issues so it's no the hardware. I would lean to a Skype app issue. Just my observation though.
Yea I think it's an app issue. It did the same thing when I was on stock too.

I dont think so currently. Youre going to have to go without sepia on your pics for a while. Its hard to be artsy on android.
Instagram is a app issue with "all" ICS ROMs. It hit and miss as very very few have said it worked for them but majority it does not work.
The app is fully working for me using NexusMod ICS Zero. I admit it wasn't working and was freezing trying to use the filters. But once I did the Fix Permissions Workaround for ICS it is fully working now. It does lag a little on some of the filters but it no longer freezes up the phone or reboots the phone.

Which ROM are you on? Mine uploads fine after the fix permission fix.
Crap...I just updated to the latest Instagram and now mine are pitch black now...lol.
I'm on Racings UCLD Skyrocket ICS, and Instagram actually TECHNICALLY does work now, but it's far from perfect. I've only had one FC though so that's good.
In general its just slow applying the filters at times, and just seems a little "buggy" on my ICS rom. But it does work so I'm not complaining (on the old ICS roms it would just freeze up the entire phone and FC constantly)

On Racing's newest UCLD Skyrocket Rom it seems to work, not great but good enough for me (I was so against going back to Gingerbread that I was prepared to live without Instagram so I'll take what I can get) lol
1/5 times or so, is how often I can get it to work.

The same one as you dude, maybe the next update will fix it.
So how can any of you say it's working when using words like (1 out of 5, lagging, black picture, freezes often)....That my friends is not working so again to not create false hope for any newbies running around trying to get a fix for instagram - It's an app issue with ICS and does not have anything to do with ICS Rom's. Period.

Lol very true. After playing more with instagram I can go ahead and say it doesn't work well enough to warrant using. Mine Freezes on applying filters and when attempting to export photos.
Also the pics that I was able to get edited/uploaded through instagram (after a lot of waiting and semi FC's) I noticed that the quality is severely degraded after it gets uploaded I freely admit I haven't spent much time with instagram (I have a real camera and use LR3 and CS5 when I want to do some photography) but is it normal for it degrade the quality so much?
After my pics were uploaded they looked they were shot with the front facing camera on my T-989 lol
I wonder if we all wrote them. Maybe they can help resolve the issues. Here's the link.

well i've tried cm10.aokp and miui. and seems i cant record anything using either the stock app or a download and if i do manage to its seems its really low or has a bunch of static. also in arket when i try to search for an app using my voice it just acts as if i didnt say anything or its not receiving what im saying if anything at all. i was wondering if this is just me or can anyone else confirm this. i had one other person confirm this on miui but on aokp and cm10 they just say those bugs were fixed weeks ago. any help is greatly appreciated
nvm it seems i have to put my face right next to the top mic like literally and scream at it on those roms for it to pick up anything. which is odd because stock does at a normal distance >.>

Ditto.
I have the same issue and wonder if its related to OS version. I never saw that problem when on 4.1.2 but being on 4.2.2, the Instagram filter always had that problem.
Need to ask Devs about that.....
Confirmed (or at the least)
I have an S3 with OS 4.1.1 and there is no Glitch with Instagram.

When i had my S2 a day ago and it was onn4.2.2 i did not experience this problem.. just got on my coworkers s4 to see if he had the same problem on his stock phone andbhe does.. maybe its just the s4?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I believe it's the size of the picture, mind you our S4 has a 13mp camera, takes 9mp by default which is still higher than the normal standard, try editing a smaller picture like one not taking from your s4 and see if the filters work correctly.
Edit: actually I'm not experiencing any glitch with any size picture.
Edit 2: ok I had it wrong its that one hdr type button that causes the picture to glitch, the normal filters work but not with that button enabled, an iG update will probably fix that.

Isn't this one of the problems many people were having? They fixed a lot of bugs in the recent nightlies.
Try flashing the most up to date kernel you can (3.4.50 was in the dev section last I looked).
Otherwise maybe try the latest nightly build. Nandroid backup if you do so you can easily revert.

It fix the problem on my phone
Tried flashing the various basebands
I have tried flashing the three different basebands for the sch-i535 and the problem with the instagram video still exists. screen looks doubled, then green and pinkish. Running the latest ayysir 6-27-2013 build of paranoid android 3. Hope this is resolved soon. Will now test various ROMs
I have the same issue too. I've been searching on Google to see if any one had the similar problem and I landed on this thread. I finally decided to register (been lurking for a while) to post this.
My Instagram would only allow me to record up to 2 segments every time without crashing. When recording the third and releasing the record button, it would either:
1) Have that pink and green color and become doubled
or
2) Just crash and restart my whole device.
I've tried it on CM10.1-RC5, CM10.1-RC4 and Nightly build 6/27 using a GS3 SGH-I747.

I still have the green and pink screen problem.
Any word on this at all? This is a feature I would really like to use, but I'm getting having the same issues mentioned above. Booo. CM 10.1.0
Still no fix on this? There has to be someway to fix it....
bump
Has anybody submitted the issue to CM and Instagram yet? I only ask because no one seems to have mentioned doing so and it would be the best way to get something going on this.
I don't use either one but I would think the instagram folks might at least have a little insight for you.

Wish the aosp browser wasn't crap on 4.4. Also wish WiFi autoconnect worked in 4.3. Its really annoying that it randomly stops working until you manually open the WiFi menu. It still occurs even on cm10.2.0

what exactly do you mean wifi auto connect fail? It has been auto connecting for me? do you mean auto connect as in walk home, phone detected wifi signal and automatically turn wifi on and connect? if thats the case then i have no idea as ive never tried to do so.
Anyways.........anyone know a good cm11 kernel? currently i am using stock kernel and maaaan its missing so many functions D:
testing since yesterday, the rom is stable and whitout problems, don't had crash etc, just have a glich when u take a screenshot (in the preview) but the captured immage is fine.
I think the only thing that must be fixed is the browser, some times is choppy, double tap for zoom sometimes don't works and the video preview don't work.
I'm not sure but i have noticed a slight battery drain, more than the 4.3 stock:good:

It doesn't happen in cm10.1 or 10.0. It started happening when google changed the wifi framework in 4.3 to the always on scanning. Even with that setting disabled the scanning is still glitched.

pretty stable nightly
Using CM11 nightly since yesterday. Had no issues except the screenshot preview. Screen shots are gettive saved correctly though. Also a little drop in battery life but maybe cause I am using it more. Is good for daily use.
I have flashed the nightly and there are 2 issues so far.
1. google now does not work
2. Spotify only plays 5 seconds then it goes mute while the playback continues.
I've found another issue: except for whatsapp and SMS I don't get any instant messaging notifications. Fb messenger as well as hangouts don't show anything in the status bar.
Funnily I use hangouts for SMS and it shows SMS...
Can someone confirm that?
Apart from that the only thing that really bugs me, is the glitch when playing music and powering off the screen. I would call it Playback-bug.
I dirtyflashed though. Too lazy to wipe, don't want to lose a lot of the stuff.
If nothing helps, I will wipe...

My gnex is no longer on any carrier, strictly use on Wi-Fi now, and ever since 4.3 I experience same exact thing as you. (It also seems to randomly forget access points I've saved multiple times for no reason hahaha)
