can't figure out how to use video chat with a computer

I can video chat with another handheld on QIK or FRING, but i haven't figured out how to do a video chat with a person who only has a laptop with camera.
Is this possible, are there instructions on what to do .?

You can use skype with fring.

Possible to video chat with iPhone users?

is it Possible to video chat with iPhone users? Or develop an app for andriod users and Os4 users???
Give me some answers or thoughts on this topic.
JBlaze -- Evo 4G

I think we now have to wait for Skype to release they're own video apps. AFAIK this was possible via Fring but then Skype had that whole fit over it & made Fring remove the service.
So at the moment, i think we just have to sit back & wait.

Hopefully they dont take long to release this skype app, i found the apk for skype 3 but then found out its not for video calls and it only works in the uk and some other countries.

you might be able to use fring to go between them, yes it has no skype but if i'm not mistaken you can still use fring video chat on both devices

Wow...I didn't even realize that Fring didn't have skype anymore...I have no use for this app now...goodbye!

They got overloaded by all the evo and iphone users. Skype was hurting on their end as well.

As far as video chat goes, I was hoping to use my Gmail account to initiate a video call/chat with a friend of mine using her Gmail also via Fring. Come to find out...Fring doesn't support this either!

[Q] Skype app?

Just a quick question, as skype is not available for the Galaxy S, can anyone recommend an alternative app?
I still want to use my skype account, and the credit on that to make calls, mainly to france.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Nimbuzz can use skype accounts (as well as a lot of others...)
I suggest to give it a try

Thanks.
It seems like the best option, but can I make skype-out calls with it using my skype credit?

you can also use Fring which supports Video Calling over IP

I'm still looking for one that will allow me to chat via video with pc skype users.

Thanks guys. I'll give these a try tomorrow.
Why can't Skype just make a proper app for Skypeout, eh

There was a android version out, but limited to some mobiles, providers and just USA i think..
Dunno why no skype app is available for us..

Skype blocked Fring.
Nimbuzz works on SGS and supports Skype out... Few bugs but ok to use.
And that's it, nothing else for skype available at the moment

I use Nimbuzz but like others mentioned it is pretty buggy.

Searching will find 'com.skype.android.lite.apk'
Haven't tried it, but it is available.​

so Apple's Facetime is somewhat unique since we can't do Video calling over IP on the SGS

Thanks guys. Now using Nimbuzz, found my Skype credit, now testing over the weekend
Edit: Crap, the calls go through, ring, but when the person on the other end picks up, there is silence at both ends. Any ideas?

We can't do video chat using Google Chat? I'm surprised!

for moment whe can use iMovicha ... this program allow video chat also with client pc or with other phone with the same program instaled .. but , whe miss fring or some version skype for android

I wonder when someone creates a facetime compatible app (either on PC or android or any other device).
Would be great..
And why skype isnt able to make a new androidversion is also a good question..

video call possible?

Is video.call possible with this phone? My wife has a galaxy sl and can do video call. Does the captivate glide have this capability? I've done it with gtalk and skype.

Yes. I have done it with Skype, Fring and the google one I think is Gtalk.

I have done it with skype and gtalk as well. On my wifes galaxy sl it has an option for video call when she makes a normal phone call. Does this phone have that type of option?

What I do have is Contacts from Skype that I have merged with my Google Contacts allow me to make a skype video call. It has the option "Video call with Skype"
I went to Contacts ---> Groups --> and choose my Skype user name and can see all my Skype contacts and those contacts have the "Video call with Skype" option.

Worked just fine calling my friend's Xperia Play VZW over Talk. Front camera was better than his

is there any way to have video calls via dialer? i've got free video calls, not data so I don't want to use skype or talk

Ask you're survive provider what app they support in free video calls, dialer has no ability to make video calls.

Seconding dudejb here -- this is done through some app provided by that carrier, which may only be available on phones sold by that provider. Even if they won't willingly provide you with the app, hope is not completely lost -- you can dump the APK from a friend's Android phone, or get creative with an OtG cable on a demo unit at one of their stores. No guarantees that'll work though -- it may depend on some weird framework or hardware inside their phones.

any changes?
Hi, I've tried to search forum in this topic without success, so I need a clear answer for this question: is there any ROM supporting native video calls at the moment for i927?
And the second question (no need for very clear answer ) - anybody found any way to make native video call with i927? I thought this device is part of Galaxy S II series of phones which were declared to support such calls, but I'm quite confused now and afraid of being mislead...

[Q] If LG G4 has a standard video call?

Without Internet tango and more
G3 and G2 does not video calls Internet.
I know that the Samsung Galaxy and more
I did not find. have information if a video call?

It should come with Google Hangouts, which does video calls. Or you can download Skype, Whatsapp, etc.
Why does the video call software have to be built in when you can download so many options?

Sadly manufacturers seems to have given up on this handy feature, you can maybe use one of the apps for calls and make it your default call app, like hangouts... Hope it helps you.... Even if I hate apple products, I guess it's way easier for you with an apple product... you can easily launch face time.

well, i'm using H818p and it does not come with native 3G video calling option. its just not in the dialer. but i saw the carrier versions of G4 has 3G video calling. is there anyway to enable 3G video calling?
