Cingular video - HTC Inspire 4G

My first android phone moving from WinMo.
I tried to access cingularvideo.Cingular.com and won't work. Anyone know how?
Thanks in advance.

I found the same problem. Before I rooted it, my Aria Cingular Mobile Video, but after rooting I could never get it to work. Apparently you have to access the website via the Mobile Video app (and it would always use mobile data, even with wifi on), but no matter how many different ways I added the .apk and .odex files it didn't work. Perhaps side loading the app files from the Aria or Captivate might work?

[Q] Skype

From what I've read online, Skype is only for Verizon phones. I have downloaded the app onto my Mesmerize, but it won't allow me to log in.
Is there anyway around this?
They way I understand it is that it should work on any 2.1 phone but only on wifi but the vzw version can use on 3g also.
I tryed it to myself and it wont login either

I tried on wifi from several different locations and it wouldn't let me log in either.

Tethering Android devices to adhoc mode access points (like other phones) is always a problem. There are usually ways around it, but they seem to be device-specific. In my case I ended up needing to edit a couple of config files, I'm not using an Incredible though.
Ok. I'm just learning how to tether. I'm kinda a noob on that subject. What does advoc stand for. Also how can I tether to my computer so that I am using my phone for internet. I have a desktop not wireless. I have installed PDA once and I used it to text. But now I tarried to install it again but it will not let me....

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.

Task Killer

Does anyone know of an App killer that will not allow certain apps to start up and run in the background, IE; bloatware?
Thanks for the help.

Sorry, I should have mentioned I am not rooted. Going to try Auto Task Killer
I use Task Manager, very similar to Auto Task Killer
Task managers are counter productive on Android.

Why not just root the phone? That seems like a great solution for removing the bloatware.

I am not real comfortable with any of the process's yet. I tried one click and was never able to move off of the Desire (no sound) ROM, so I returned the phone and go another one. I come from a Captivate that I Rooted hundreds of times, with no incident. So hopefuly a more automated version will come out to Root the Inspire

Don't mean to derail but I wouldnt bet on any easier methods. The
rom must be downgraded to root.

If you're holding out for a root method for the Inspire that is as true "one-click" as the captivate, you'll be waiting indefinitely.
There are fundamental differences between the two phones in terms of root-ability.
Seriously, the inspire is completely rootable. Your inspire is no less rootable than mine was or any others who have had success.
If the root process fails for you, it is because you overlooked something. Bubbys tool, along with Zonderion's video, produced a rooted phone, with fully functioning sound, for me, and many others.
Having TiBU functioning and able to remove bloat was the primary reason I wanted to root. You will never truly and completely be free of the bloat unless you root.
A properly-made gold card is CRITICAL (format FAT32, allocation size = 32KB).
Having JUST the drivers, without HTCSync installed, "safely removing hardware" (unmounting) the card before switching the USB mode, and basically giving it the chance to do its work, even if it seems like its taking too long, are all things (among others) that need to happen in order for the process to properly complete.
Zonderion's video, if you replicate the actions you see him doing EXACTLY, even down to the way he formats the SD card, will work for you, assuming you starting from a fresh phone.
The only thing I did different than him was use a 4gb card instead of an 8gb card.

TigerGBA BIOS issue

I've always used TigerGBA/SNES/NES for playing ROMs ever since my first android phone the D2G. So it's been a few years of using it without problems.
Well I just recently had to reset my phone (a crappy LG Revolution, upgrading when the Galaxy S4 comes out) and reinstall everything and now TigerGBA is not working. It finds my roms and everything but when I try to open one of the games it says it can't find the BIOS files and it says to either put the BIOS file into mnt/sdcard/roms/gba manually or to download the ROM Emulators app and it will do it for you.
Well that app doesn't seem to exist but I found an app that install BIOS for any emulator and so I had it install in the proper directory but it's still saying there is no BIOS file when I try to open a game. So I was hoping someone can help me figure out how to get this working cause out of all the Android emulators I've tried, the Tiger ones are the best IMO and plus they are free which makes em even better cause they run even better then the paid ones.
So if someone can help me figure this out it would be greatly greatly appreciated. I've never had an issue with it before. And for all my android development knowledge, I can't seem to figure this out.
