This device should be one of the first to get gingerbread, how else are you going to brag about a camera when it barely works with other devices?

Qik is fully integrated into the phones software so that looks to be the best option.

Don't think that Skype works on Android at all for Video.

I think you can use Yahoo Messenger, but I'm not positive.
Ok it would appear that video is grayed out when you are video chatting between phone and computer on Messenger.
ARGH
Spoke to a t-mo rep today and while my order for this phone was being filled she told me that you could use qik to vidchat with a pc.
That is a rep talking so take it fwiw.

Whoa, you serious? My friend has an Evo 4G and in my contact book it shows that I am able to Qik chat with him.
Tango is the s###. Use the yahoo chat to video call with a pc

I haven't got the phone to try it yet but she said something about going to qik.com on the pc. I don't know if there was any software to install though.

How? (10 chars)
Check the MicroSD card that came with the phone, there's some QIK stuff on there, I believe it's labeled Qik PC Client.

This allows to place calls on 3G, just install your current skype, then install that one.

You mean remove current right ? That is why I did and it works... how safe is this (for possible charges) ?
There isn't an actual Skype video for Sprint users...Verizon users have it available......Skype needs to get on the ball bc love the service. Yahoo messenger also does video/calling. I haven't tried it but it has similar features over WiFi.
Although Skypes main feature is to call over 3/4G.....

I tried this on CM7 RC4 and it failed! I even did it both ways....I left the one I downloaded from the market installed and try to replace it with the one you attached and NOTHING....then I uninstalled the market one, used root explorer and deleted the folder in data/data, rebooted and installed the one you attached and NOTHING.....it FC everytime I go into it! Is the one you attached only work with 2.2 or what??
Remove current skype and install attached.. worked for me. Like said still no video so try ooVoo messangesupports video over 3G

I've tried Tango and to me its not that great. So I switched back to Qik.....so far that's the better app at least until Skype allows the video syreaming....like said its on Verizon.
Does anyone have a Droid on VZ? I wonder if the signed app that talks to Skype can be used on other Droids to allow Skype video to work? Just an idea

Verizon users do not have that upgraded skype that was shown a month ago, unless they are hiding it. Its not on the xoom and its not on the thunderbolt also its not in the vzw market

Skype_3g.apk works great on my Evo over Sprint 3g.
Ok, now a question on legality. I know most wouldn't care, and I realize that in this case absolutely nobody is getting hurt (Sprint doesn't care, I checked. Skype couldn't care, b/c it means more business for them. Verizon may care, b/c now they lose their exclusivity with Skype on 3g versus Sprint, but I wouldn't have switched to them, regardless.) But isn't my downloading and using this modified version of Skype a violation of Skype's eula?
"2.3 No Modifications: You will not undertake, cause, permit or authorize the modification, creation of derivative works, translation, reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling or hacking of the Skype Software or any part thereof except to the extent permitted by law. "
Can anyone re-hack the skype app version 1.0. 0.0. 831

No, that's awkward. I'm on CM7, and it installs without issue and runs perfectly fine.
Yep this works. CM7.
3G + Wifi calling.
No video yet.
U guys know any? I've tried skype, fring, yahoo messenger, and none of those can use the front facing camera. I didn't try qik cuz I think it's for android only. Tango looks weird, I don't have a screen name and don't know how to add a friend, so I don't know if it works or not.

check the last post. Tango has a beta for G2x which allows us to use our FFC. I just made a call with my gf's iphone and it works.
Fring and Qik
Qik works, I didn't know it's available for iphone too. It's kinda slow though, even if both phones r on wifi. Fring didn't detect the front facing camera.
Thank you guys for ur help

Yep, used tango today to an iPhone, no problem
Tango
Tango works fine between my G2X and my wife's iPhone 4.
I like Tango over some of the others because it doesn't require setting a username and password. It's based on your phone number. Makes it easier to manage imo.
Guys, how can I make a video call with the Sensation?

I would imagine it's no different than any other phone... Just use a video calling app. Qik, oovoo, tango, yahoo, et al.

Thanks mate! I thought that the function is integrated within HTC dialer.
It would be nice to see a way to make regular 3G video calls. I mean these video calls every non-smartphone device with a front camera can do over 3G. The only known android phone that implements this is the Galaxy S.
Yes, that would actually be great. Is there a way of making regular 3G video calls?

No video calling and Microsoft just bought them out. I doubt we'll see it soon unfortunately.

I downloaded Skype and I haven't figured out how to make a video call yet (just voice). I'm guessing I have to use the Qik app that came with the phone...problem is not many of my friends use Qik...they use Skype. Kinda disappointing

As stated above, Skype does not support video calls for mobile yet. I heard they are working on it, but who knows how long it will take with Microsoft taking over. It'll show up on WP7 before we see it at this point.

You sure he doesn't have a custom Rom on his mt4g? Cause tango for me works perfect.

If you go to Skype's website it says that mobile video calling will be available for Verizon's LTE 4g network soon. I hope it's not exclusive just to Verizon users.

Hi,
does anyone know how i could do that ??
whith fring it "was" possible to talk from cellphone to PC using skype protocoll.
fring on cellphone to skype app on PC via wifi. but that isnt supported anymore from skype or fring.
does anyone has another solution ?
I asked the same question and no body answer. This mean there is no solution for right now. Yahoo does not support it yet and Skype is same so there is nothing will work until the phone release tomorrow. then we have to wait some times till they release the source and hopefully something will work out.
have u tried skype or somthing similar to Tango ?
i tried fring ... and the dunny thing is fring supported it some weeks ago ...
then when i tried it skype gave a blog to the internet which said that skype doenst want this anymore so they skipped support or disabled it for fring ...
that terrible
and from skype (phone) to skype (pc) works . but only voice chat , no video !!!
VTOK works great.. as long as you have a google account (which for sensation users should pose no problem) and the PC end has video chat for gmail installed.
One app I use thats been great for Videocall to Pc is oovoo! give it a try
PC to Phone - Phone to PC Video Calling
I've been using Yahoo! Messenger for video calling. You need the yahoo video plugin installed in your android device.

Does it support front facing camera?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Qik has a desktop version that (I think) runs through Adobe Air, though I haven't tried it myself. And since they are owned by Skype, I'm hoping Skype cross-app support comes or they get integrated into one app or something.

I sue VTOK, talk to anybody with a Gmail account/Google Talk and the video Chat plug in. I'm pretty sure there's already a thread about this floating around, because I responded in that one as well. Maybe that's why there's fewer replies in this one.

I tried VTOK for a day. realized that it stays running all the time even when logged out & drains the battery
Skype will be the program for that. Install the latest version on your pc and moded version of skype on your sensation that supports both front and back cameras. It is called TBolt_GB_ Skype.apk
