Has anyone figured out how to make yahoo video messenger work from their ego to MAC or pc? I can hear the person on the other end but can't see their webcam.

I call my wife from my evo on both our mac and pc with no issue
Using video? Is there a trick to it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
yes video and audio comes through just fine we use it when im out on the road alot and seems to work pretty good for being in beta and no no trick to it just load up the yahoo then click on the person you want to vid call and click vid call should be it.
That's crazy. I'll have to try it again. It has never worked for me but I haven't tried it in a while. My son lives out of the state and I talk to him on Skype but I was hoping there would be a phone to computer program I could use so I didn't have to be home for the calls.

it still does not work.
works fine for me as well.
here are the two files ive been using install both but only update the video add on try that and report back.
You have to make sure the PC is using the newest version of yahoo as well V10 or above I think
Earlier someone asked if it worked with MAC. I tried but still does not work but i will try the apk from here.

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'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

Qik
I had a major issue with Qik on my Tab so I am really scared to even open it. It got into a loop with something and every 30 seconds I would get a call from same number and no one would be there. I was getting over 300 of these calls a day. I had Tmobile change the phone number on the Tab and it did not help so I will not even open Qik. Tmobile had no idea what the issue was or how to fix it. Only way I got it to stop was by rooting the tab and deleting the program
WOW!!!
It works in the uk. I tango my cousin in his uni and he has a iPhone 4

Tango's front cam doesnt work properly, it shows it sideways and zoomed.
I'm looking for something that would work with my google talk contacts.
"Vtok" does that, and video works, but there are 2 problems:
- Low quality sound and video, no way to change that
- Doesn't recognize front camera on Infuse.

if you've actually tried Tango on the Infuse then you would know that the orientation of the screen is wrong.
Use Qik Video Connect.
So Qik is the only option? Does that work for video chat to a computer or iphone?

I wish that was in English, I'm pretty sure there was something important in it somewhere.
Just tested Qik. Called my friend who was using an Atrix 4g. The call was great. It used the right camera on the Infuse 4g. Love the app now.
Im basically the odd one out in family using non iphone4. They using fring flawlessly but i just cant get the feont cam to work, otherwise the sound and back camera is great quality. Just d/loaded qip and hope it'll work.

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
Has anyone who updated their phone to 2.3.3 tried installing the APK in which one can video chat? I can do it on the Sensation and on the Samsung Exhibit and I am wondering if you guys have tried with any success on the G2x? Thanks!
I tried OovoO and it worked maybe skype should too.

No official skype app that is working. Hacked app, maybe. Oovoo has been working with froyo and the v21e update. Also, build.prop hack works.

I am on 2.3.3 latest 'official' build as released by LG the other day. The hacked Skype loads and installs ok, and works ok once you don't try to set it up to use video. Once you do, it just keeps closing.
I would LOVE to have the Skype video working, as I use it often. The only other issue that I have with Skype is that even with synch turned off, it keeps loading itself and connecting. WHY? Grrrr.... can anyone give me a setting to stop this?
In GB 2.3.3 of course!

I have the same issue and even if you force stop Skype, still restart itself. They need to fix that! I would suggest sending an e-mail to developers.
Skype video doesn't work for me either:-(
