Skype w/ Video Released - G Tablet General

Of course out Gtablet isn't supported yet... but video chatting on the gtablet just got 1 step closer...

Devs at XDA have already cracked to run on other android devices as well. I could not find the app after installing on my Gtab. Anybody any luck.

I tried installing one from apktop and it didn't work on the g tablet... the app worked and I could try to do a video call, but it would force close.

If there isnt already im sure there will be a workaround available to make it compatible!

Might not be supported yet is my guess...
Nope not working here either. Shouldn't be too much longer before they fix it.
a lot of these apps don't work properly on 2.3
It does work, what doesnt work is the Gba emulator
Contacted the developer and he said he should be able to fix when he gets his nexus s.

Any update on that? Does it now work for the Nexus S?
Snesoid has worked on mine since I bought it in January. I did pay for the app if it matters. I'm running on stock unrooted 2.3.3.
I played Super Mario RPG start to finish with no issues or lag at all. I can confirm gensoid works also.
Xda app won't let me upload a screenshot. Wrong format.

I have it and play everyday no problem. never crashed on me.
stock unrooted
Hi,
new to android world. I've bought a nexus s yesterday and downloaded snesoid from market.
Dumb question: where do you put the roms? as nexus s doesn't have sd card is not clear to me how i should setup application to work properly.
It is unrooted and i want to keep it as it is for the moment (want to learn more before to do it).
Any help?
thanks in advance.
I think i figure out ... it has a mnt point within sdcard as there is one...

[Q] Can you play this flash video? Desire can't.

Hello guys,
Desire/Nexus1 doesn't support playing flash movies from this popular site:
http://tv.winelibrary.com/
Could anyone with Droid2 try to play it and see if it goes for more than first 30-40 seconds?
I've wrote a thread about this problem and opened a case @ Adobe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=9781112
Thank you.
Tried it on my droid X, droid 2 Global, and Nexus one. All play the videos fine... Granted, my Nexus isn't stock, but it should work fine for you anyway. Is this the only site that gives you issues?
Are you sure that you leave video to play for at least a minute or a bit more? In the xda thread I posted there are more info about a problem. Yes, this is only site that is giving me problems.
I let it play for about 2 minutes, it ran just fine.

Load takes a while. Running 3g on Verizon. But it works fine.

Thanks guys, it seems to be some strange bug only happening on Desire with any ROM (Sense, 2.2.1, 2.3.1).

skype video calling not allowed

why is it that htc sensation cannot make video calls like htc desire s using skype?
It's unfortunately the new kind of fragmentation (I hate that word too, but heck, it's the truth). App developers are now rolling out apps to specific devices of their choice in whatever order they please.
In this case, they didn't release Skype for the Sensation yet. If you can't get one of the floating modded versions to work, you'll have to settle for Tango or Qik. Both of those are working great too, especially Qik now that it finally works
thank you for your reply..
Doesn't Qik use your minutes

Look for this apk: skype_2_0_0_47-signed.
I was using it on Friday without any problems, but I can't test it today because my screen has gone dead and will have to exchange my phone tomorrow.

Is it normal for Skype video calling that only works normal in landscape mode? In portrait mode, it's rotated for 90'. Any soloutions for this?

Skype video

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.
I remember oovoo wasnt working on g2x

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.

Tried the hacked Skype App with video and it closes on me just before logging me in. It doesn't work for some reason. Oovoo works fine, but it worked on the Froyo as well.
Has anyone managed to make Skype video work on the new Gingerbread build?

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!

You might want to try this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.wetcarrot.stopskype
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:-(

Amazon Instant Video app from Google TV

I have extracted the Amazon Instant Video app from my Google TV device. It opens on the Note 8, you can select videos, but on trying to actually stream the video you selected, it crashes. If there are any talented people on this forum who want to try playing with the .apk file to see if they can fix it, or if there's someone willing to host this file, let me know and I will email it to you.

You would also need to get the Flash enabled version of GTV Chrome working, since that is really what the app relies on.
EDIT: At least that is the case on the Sony NSZ-GT1. If it is different for your device, I'll have a look, but from what research I have done, it is not an easy task & it will involve a few modifications that will not sit well with other apps or the Play Store.
Post it up though, I just got my dev environment setup on my new machine & the missus will be out of town this weekend.
Unfortunately you're right. The Google TV Chrome app will not install on the Note.
There doesn't seem to be a way to post files through the XDA app, but I can email them to whoever wants them.

Well, I have to report that I have had little luck getting this to work on any non-GTV device. I even built an AOSP build with using a GTC boardconfig. No luck.
I am very pissed with Amazon though, so I went & bought a LTE KF HD 8.9 & I am going to play with getting it working on other tablets. Man I hate the Kindle stock experience. Thank goodness for root. I'll let you know if I find a simple way to get it running, but it will take some time as business is wicked crazy right now.
Any luck?

Yes & no. I have firstly been playing with the Nexus 10 & the KF HD 8.9. I was able to finally get AVOD to work on the Nexus 10, BUT, *BUT*, I essentially had toport the entire KF rom to the Nexus 10. It is buggy & there are some graphical & resolution issues, but it worked.
The only other instance I have found was also similar. A guy got it working on a Galaxy Tab, essentially doing the same thing, porting the whole KF rom.
You could of course use a different launcher, but it is still ICS, 4.0.3, & aside from losing a lot of the N10 cool features, it really is far from stable. I don't have a lot of time for this stuff at the moment, work is crazy busy these days. At any rate, I am going to see if I can try to go about it the other way & try to port some of the KF framework & core apps to JB when I get some time. Right now though, it is a no go.
