Has anyone had a chance to try Xoom to Xoom Google Talk Video Chat to see if there have been any improvements?
Prior to the upgrade, the video quality wasn't good and the voice was getting cutoff even if using a headset. If either one was using a PC it worked fine.
My other friends with Xooms aren't around since I got the upgrade so I haven't had a chance to try it. I'm looking for others who've had a chance to use it for some feedback. Thanks.
just check urself with a computer, if u have 2 gmail accounts
on ur comp, install the google video gmail plugin, den login to gmail frm comp
n den send video chat invite from comp to xoom, or xoom to comp, either way
1 thing i wud like 2 know is, how to chat n video at the same time, without the video pausing every time u wanna chat

I don't see any improvement since its an application that hasn't been updated for a bit, and it's the same version from before the update. I use it quite a bit from xoom to xoom and xoom to pc.
Only problem im having with the Talk app is force closes while doing group chats

thrown a bit of time tonight at find more info on this to no avail...seems a lot of questions but not many answers.
my question is: with a working version of QIK is there a way to chat to PC's? with Yahoo or something?
I would imagine its a contact setup thing but even QIKs site (which was the final place i checked) seems ambiguous on this one.
I believe the new Yahoo messenger has that ability....havent tried so cant say.
ya u r so right,new version yahoo imvideo can able this.i have tried
Yup. Confirmed. Yahoo video chat works. The only 2 apps for video chat pc-phone/phone-pc are MOVICHA and yahoo video. A great phone to phone is TANGO available on the market.

Skype did just acquire QIK so maybe they'll work the programs together.

Can you either please explain how you accomplished this or lead me in the direction to a walk through.
My dad has the same phone as me and I want to get the most out of it.. So far we both have TIKL (a walkie talkie type of program) and tried QIK before (and hated it)
We just both tried out "FRING" and it seems to be really nice..
I just want to make sure is not going to hurt the battery..
I unchecked everything off in the settings, and only going to use it after my dad and I decide to do a video chat.
I am not looking to use it for friends and people that want to just connect with me anytime..
Im not sure how these programs work though.. I checked running services under applications and its NOT running..
But I hate bad written programs and their seems to be a good handful (like QIK)
THANKS!!
Ok I tested some things out.. I unchecked some stuff off, from the fring settings.. Tried to have my dad contact me while I was off and visa versa, we were not able to contact each other because it said we were both offline.. I hope thats a good thing. I really don't want this thing killing my battery...
There is an option to exit and when I do it seems that it really does exit from the program..
If anyone has more information on this I would love to hear it.. THANKS
To be honest I only use qik for uploading videos. For video chat I use the yahoo messenger app, you can also use that to video chat with people on the pc.

i use video chat to pc all the time. i use the stock yahoo messenger app that came with my mt4g. then when i opened it, it took me to the market to download the video app. once i did that and i signed into yahoo messenger. u instant message ur friend or whoever u wanna video chat with. once ur in the instant message hit the menu button on the mt4g, the hard button next to the home button. then it shows video chat or something like that. click it and it will send a call to ur friend and they hit accept and ur good to go. see if it works. but i had to use wifi since there is no 4g in my area and my 3g i can only get 700kbps at best which does suck.

Yes it did, everything worked as I followed your instructions. I had to keep downloading and installing the video add on with no success but i didn't click menu in the actual conversation page.

i still don't understand why google hasn't intergrated gchat video into their phones.....it works so good on my laptop
Skype is available in the "working on Skype" thread.
Just uploaded the Skype app. Once I load it to another phone I'll let you know how it works. In the meantime, I've used both Tango and fring (fring has beta code that works with the tbolt) both have worked but it can get a little sketchy on 3G
I used skype last night to talk to my nephew who also has a thunderbolt. It worked flawlessly. I did however have a crap load of contacts on my list that I didn't even know but after deleting them all it was all good.
I cant get the gtalk video chat to work.
My friend try to video chat me, but i do not receive the invitation to answer the call, i can hear is ring (he's just beside me) .. like i do not receive anything from the caller.
If i try to call him.. he receive my invitation and answer, then the screen goes blank with my cam on right corner (the same for him with his camera).. but nothing more.. again i do not seem to receive a confirmation or something like that..
Anyone is able to use gtalk video chat ?
Yes. I'm running on Prime 1.6 (android 3.1)
I hacked my G2x to use the video feature and used it last night. My G2x using 3G and my TF using WiFi.
Asus Transformer 3.1 pwnd

i had no problems running it on my stock 3.2
Ive tried plenty on mine, several roms and stock, it always works. sorry for the question but, have you checked if you had enabled video and voice in gtalk?

Also, is either an apps account. My apps account wouldn't work on the tablet
Yes I did
Ithink my tf101 might vhe an issue here.
My friend does not have the problem, he reveive my call, but the handshake is not complete due to my tf101

Thanks i was using two account on my gtalk. I deleted one, and used the other for test purpose on my pc and now i can engage discussion from one side or another.
It looks like the account i'm using on the pc (a hotmail account) was not working on android, i don't know why but now it works that way :
My true gmail / gtalk account on android, the hotmail/gtalk on my pc.
Thanks for you all.
Cool. I had to switch to my old gmail account for talk. I had been sycning with my apps account and it worked in the browser plugin but not the application. Hopefully Google will get off their collective asses and create the security tools for their apps accounts so I can do everything with it.
I have stock 3.1.
I cant make gtalk video chat to anyone but some of my friends can call me and i can accept there calls. It works fine if the video is started from there side (running windows 7).
