I just finished a video call from Colorado to Belarus, talking with a friend there. It worked great, a little lag once in awhile, but I think that was on her end, they have poor internet service, my Tmobile has faster download speeds. I thought if any one was looking for a working video call from your phone to someone that does not have a awesome phone like us, this works, Yahoo sucks, because front camera does not work with it.

How exactly do you do video in skype, I have yet to see an option for it, on either the SGS2 or my Tablet that is supposedly supported.
You need to goto settings in Skype and activate video calling. It will say you device is not optimized yet for Skype, but for me it works fine.

Sweet, I saw it this time, but I only have one friend on and he's at work. :sadface:
I did an hour long Skype video chat with a friend in Mongolia yesterday with my sgs2. It was over wifi and worked very well. The call dropped once but I think it was her crappy mongolian internet at fault.
Since i didnt already own a webcam I can add one more thing to the list of excuses for the wife of why it was OK to spend almost $300 on this beast of a phone

No go for video so far. It's enabled in settings , tried with both 4G and WiFi, nothing. Voice call forks fine. Any suggestions?

Can you describe the problem more clearly? Was the video icon not there? Did the video calls fail to connect? Did the video only work on one side?
Did you try rebooting or restarting Skype?

The video icon was there. If I choose video call option, it connects bu voice call only, the video won't even start.
Same if someone tries to call me.

I ran into that problem, but a restart of Skype or a reboot of the phone fixed it.
I know it works on the international version of the s2 but I want to know if it's working on this one . I'm thinking to switch over from a sensation (found one like new on local cl).

Yes...it sure does. Might need to enable it in settings menu, but it works.

*might , I take it as you don't use Skype video chat on a cell? If you have a tmobile version of s2, and you happen to have a Skype account, could you test it for me?

It works i have done it
It works. I used it the other day to chat with a PC client. There is an option in the settings menu that you need to toggle for video calling. I think I was on WiFi when I made the call, but I just got a message that on 3G it will use up a lot of data, so I'm assuming that means it works on 3G.

I said "might" because after installing it, I immediately went to settings and turned it on. I did test it and confirmed it worked just fine,... the "might" part was only in regards to going into settings.
I also have confirmed, yes...u need to enable video calling in settings.
Video chat works for me. I tested it with a friend that also has a T-Mobile Galaxy SII. You just have to enable video chat in Skype settings first.
Thanks all, I'm contacting the seller right now.

Yes, they do have a free version in the market that allows over wifi only. The paid version allows you to use over 3g/4g. I haven't tried it over 3g/4g yet but wifi works great.
I got it free on Amazon a few moons ago. The early versions were pretty meh, but the last updates work great over 3/4G and WIFI.
Perfect app.

If you use Google voice, press 4 while in call.

That's cool. But I think it only works for inbound calls. If you place the call, I think that option gets disabled.
Has anyone managed to get any of the call recording apps to work with the HTC 10?
Ive tried ACR and Call recorder and both recordings are super low.
Maybe I'm just configured wrong. I am rooted too but know these apps don't technically require it to be rooted.
Thanks guys

Yah I have call recorder installed but I can't hear the recordings they're so faint.
Is it working for you properly or did you have to alter any settings for it?

Use HTC One M9 settings in call recorded.
Ice10 is a custom rom.

Total recall hands down
Just got an email from the Killer Mobile guys about Total Recall Call Recorder. Their new version being released tomorrow supposedly works with the HTC 10, including non-root. I had contacted them about non-root HTC 10 and sent them so information and logs. They replied.....
We'll be releasing an update likely tomorrow that should get things working on your device. Will be v2.0.45
Stay Killer My Friend,

Just thought you guys might want to know.
I've just find out that ACR Call recorder by NNL also menage to solve the HTC 10 recording problem.
It's free!
Just a simple reminder to be mindful f the laws with call recording. You have to know the laws for where you are as well as where the person you recorded are. This can save you tons of legal troubles.

No app, it's been enabled in the hTC code.
When you are on a call, you press the menu button and you will have an option to start recording.
There is also a Tweak to allow automatic recording on incoming and outgoing calls.
