I have tried a few things such as xeudoxus' modded skype but no luck.
Is there any ways to enable Skype to Skype calls via 3G?

Xeudoxus is the only known hack (that I'm aware of) that allows for 3G usage of Skype in the US. Did you uninstall your non-3G version of Skype before replacing it with the Xeudoxus version?
Yes of course I did. I keep getting the out of space error.

Has anyone been able to port the verizon skype app over to another phone? I would love to get rid of this stupid skype lite crap. They made a big mistake by only releasing to verizon
skype is tied to verizon like sprint tv to sprint, as far as i know that cant happen =[, thats why they cant use wifi while on skype
try Fring, it's in the Market, works not only with Skype (over Wifi AND 3G), but a bunch of other IM networks

+1 for Fring.
Also iSkoot works well. I was not liking the Fring background so much

When I used fring I had problems where I would say something and it would take seconds to reach the other side...the usual lag I had when over 3G was about 2-3 seconds at worst and 1 second at best. The Skype lite app doesnt give me that kind of lag
nobody seems too bothered.

Skype Lite is what people are rebelling against. Because it sucks.
Hello! I just switched from (i dont really remember what rom i was using) over to DarthLegend HTC Hero Rom and i cannot seem to find the Skype app in the Market. I have tried some other apps like Fring and Nimbuzz but those go through every single message i have sent and received and they dont support conference chats. Can somebody send me a link to the file?
goto 2 shared . com and click search and then put skipe.apk and there ya go!!!
Will this work for all networks and Android handsets? Can you send text messages with it?

I wouldnt of thought so, theres only 2 official apps I believe there's the verizon one which will only work with verizon and then theres the three UK version which only works on android 1.5 and the three network
Look at this thread
oops .
So Nimbuzz or Skype are our only options it seems like?
skype apk

here is Skype apk i pulled from the Market back in December '09... I only installed it for a couple days to play with it, but happened to back up the apk before uninstalling it from the device...everything worked well, as i recall... enjoy...
Does anybody know if that apk would work on a t-mobile google nexus one? Thanks to whoever replies.

I didn't know that T-Mobile blocked Fring... I was actually on it using wi-fi last day and it was awesome to be able to use Skype on it without using my minutes!
the old unsupported skype lite (beta) app is still functioning, but not 100% sure on how long. it allows you to talk to your skype contacts, and msg your skype contacts, but it does use your minutes when you are talking to your skype contacts.
So, has anyone tried this with 2.2?
Shows contacts but no way of making a VOIP call
going to try this app out with my N1, thanks for posting it!
Skype V.2.0.0.47 for Andriod:
http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/1065791/signedSkype20047new.apk
Hi.
Lookin for Skype app working with 3UK 3G network.
As many of u knows 3UK users have free Skype.
Standard app cant connect thru 3G
Found an Skype app for 3UK but only for android.
Anyone knows about WM version ???
Help much appreciated.
errr??? I have a skype 3.0 gold cab which I searched for on the forums and it works fine via 3G on my HD2 with O2???
It took about five mins to connect the first time, but subsequently connects within 10seconds over 3G (wifi disabled).
TBH no network wants skype 3G traffic - only way to get it over 3G is either sanctioned as 3UK do, or via jailbroken iphones. That's one reason why skype pulled WM6.5 support - because they could not guarantee to lock it down to wifi as they can on iphone.
Plz read the thread carefully, i stated 3UK not O2.
Thats the difference. Big one.
Any one else?
Edit: And im lookin for any version, not newest. Any.
I am in UK and on 3 network.
Skype V3 for WM works fine and connects perfectly over 3G. You don't need a specific 3 version...

My skype v3 after 60 sec or so, showing me a cant connect error.
Any ideas?
my point was to leave it for a long time - it appeared not to connect but eventually did regardless of network and versions.
The OP is referring to the specific skype through the 3 network app that is found on 3 issue phones.
There is nothing that allows this as 3 don't support the HD2 and so there is no model specific app.
Winmo skype does not have the facility to dial a "local" based number which is how the 3 network accesses the skype service for free through its own dedicated servers.
It may be possible to extract a 3 version app from another winmo model that 3 do support, but, then would it install on the HD2?
BTW Skype connects through any 3G network or WiFi by default.

Thats exactly what i meant.
Just wonder is this possible to extract it from another phone?
Any experts wanna give a shot ?
The problem is that they only list the Hero as a supported HTC phone and that's Android!

The included app is specifically written for the android OS so very little chance.
I'm am trying to use Fring and Qik.
I can't get neither to work right. So i have a few questions.
1.Does the other person need to have the app on there phone? And does it need to be running?
2.Can we use this on the 3g network or do we have to have wifi on?

Qik = works on 3g/wifi/4g but only from evo to evo
Fring = works on 3g/4g/wifi and from evo to computer using skype
thank you.

Well i have Qik and Fring running just fine on my Evo... mrono is right except you could argue qik also works from Evo to PC since you can have someone see your live stream. Both run fine for me guess it depends what your trying to do with them
Is there a way to get wifi calling working in these custom roms. None of the non US sbfs or custom roms I've tried has this feature. Is there an apk or something to flash at this point in time?
I've been trying to figure this out using the us group and messing with the build.prop but I haven't had any success. I know for T-Mobile US users it would be great to get this figured out.
dunno if this helps or not, but take a look here and here.

What do you mean by calling? Skype works, Google Talk with audio works too. And I use a sip client called CSipsimple to call landlines and to make free direct ip calls. Don't see how this is different with stock roms because all these functions are from 3rd party software. I haven't tried Gingerbread's native sip client.

Not SIP calling. T-Mobile US has a feature called UMA or Wifi Calling. It basically is a SIP client that routes calls/SMS over the wifi radio instead of the Cellular Radio. It's not exactly Google Voice/Talk or the builtin 2.3 SIP client.
http://gigaom.com/2010/10/06/uma-t-mobile-android/
The Defy has it in stock form, but many roms don't include this, as they're made for non-US phones. JBoogie's has it I believe.
