I take no credit or responsibility for this. I found it
You know the drill, it's not my problem if this melts your brain or your Tab
Simple. Skype with video calling support.

confirmed video not working on:
1.Better than life mod by oldmacnut on my cdma VZW SGT (2.2 froyo)
2. Stock VZW rom (2.2 froyo)
3. SGT Honeycomb 2.5 (3.0 Honeycomb) [cameras dont work so no way to test]

Downloaded & confirmed it's working. I even tried doing video calls with PC. Everything went well.
Thanks!!

Please add it to next overcome Firmware version.

This was tested on my GSM Tab running Overcome (Gingerbread) but it should work on any Gingerbread ROM (I don't know about Froyo). I logged in with another Skype account on my PC and two way video chat works the way it should
Sent from my Galaxy Tab using Overcome Hermes

I try it , its ok. video very god quality. SGT Gingerbread Overcome v2.0.1-HERMES
thanks

Works on mine too but back camera is not working. Everytime i switch from front to back camera it gives blank pic and cant switch to front again. Any solutions?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

Back camera doesn't work here as well. Front works well.. only way for me to switch back to front from back camera was to put the call on hold then un hold to reset the camera.

I hadn't tried the back camera when I tested before posting but you seem to be right

i can confirm its not working. I tried a workaround with disabling front before activating the back camera but it didn't help. But I don't care its awesome to finally have the front camera working
thx so much

Dear Friends,
Weird...
Two way video working...
Other side hear me but i cant hear them... ( Both when calling to PC and Phone installed skype)
Same also when in just voice call; cant hear other side...

Kind Regards,

It keeps telling me to "reinstall skype" after entering username&password. I'm running overcome 2.0.1

hi, i tested it out on my 2.1 also....works well.
1 thing i found though, how do you exit the application when finished with it? there is no logout/exit option. i had to restart my phone. i dont want to use task killer, but am hoping that i just missed something
to exit from skype you must to move on the third tab and from there you have 2 variants: press menu and then exit or press on your status (where you change from online to away and so on) and choose disconnect (exit)
thanks for info been hopin skype was now ready for xperia!!

[Q] Who Do I Have To Harass To Get A Working PC To Android Video Call App

Ive had this phone for 3 weeks now and ive become frustrated with the lack of video call apps this phone has. Tango sucks, yahoo doesnt have ffc support, fring sucks, and skype doesnt have ffc support. All it says is coming soon for gingerbread. they are trying to develop a script hack over here to get it working early but i havent heard a update on it. do we really have to wait for verizon to get their working version first in order to pull the apk from it or something?
Or is there a PC to android video call app i looked over in the market.
yahoo messenger works with live video (tried from SGS I9000 to PC)
the video unfortunately it only works in froyo 2.2
it's not yet updated to support 2.3

Just out of interest what dont you like about Tango, I thought it ok although it was my first foray into video calling

you cant "tango" with people on a computer.
Ahh I see, have you emailed the dev to ask them if this could be implemented?
T-Mobile's flavor of Qik now supposedly supports the SNS....is there a PC client for this? If so I'm also interested.

[Q] Any Skype app support video ?

I am looking for a Skype support video. I done some research and I installed the leaked one for the thunder and don't let me to install. Any solution?
Is there any news on this? I am due an upgrade, and would really like the Sensation, but i need Skype video calling to work!
I thought you answered my question JK. I really get tired of looking. Nothing work at all nothing support video chat or nothing every chat I downloaded just normal chat. Hopefully someone get with an a solution. From what I read online 2.3 does not support any video chat at this time. But there is some program you can use for video calling not chat like Tango. The thing I am really wishing is Android to have video calling by default like Nokia which when you call a number it asks you voice calling or video calling. Android is great but need a lot of work. At this point iPhone is so much better more than any Android phone out there. I really start to hate Android in general there is no support at all, Nothing growing. Everything is fixing bugs Ubuntu it's great but never complete like Windows or Mac OS. But we don't have any choice for right now just wait and maybe the companies will support and upgrade their apps.

I believe you need android 2.3.4 for video to work on skype and gtalk
Skype just updated it's app in the market to add vid support for "some" phones, but the sensation is not on the list yet. Anyone try out the new update?
hmmm seems skype video isnt working on sensation...
but on sgs pages of xda-dev someone patched video support in for sgs and sgs2...
maybe some dev can check out if this is possible for sensation too...
cheers...

[Request] Netflix v1.8.1 apk ?

Hey Guys,
could anyone with AppMonster or so please back up the newest (1.8.1) FREE (else I wouldn´t even ask of course!) version of Netflix?
Reason I can´t pull it from Market/Play is because my Nexus isn´t rooted - and I really don´t wanna root it just for this one stupid geo-****ed app!- and I cannot for the life of my find ANY reliable source for an APK on the net that doesn´t just redirect me to Google Play...
... which won´t let me download Netflix because my device is registered in Germany >_<
I have Netflix up and running on my PC and want to install it on my phone so I can watch it while I´m on vacation next week (got WiFi in the hotel, but not taking my Laptop with me)... and just so it WORKS.
Would be great,thanks in advance, I really hope someone can spare a couple of minutes!
not really exactly what I wanted/needed, but the (modded) apk here for v1.8.0 for the Galaxy Note works for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546053
but I´d still really love a 1.8.1, unmodded, stock APK of the Netflix App (compatible with the Nexus)... I also think it would be better kept here than in the Galaxy Note subforum
yeah, i'm having exactly the same problem.
any success so far in finding an netflix 1.8.1 apk from an reliable source?

The 1.8.1 worked a treat for me. Thanks
Note2 cm10.1 4.2.2
I tried the netflix app from amazon and it worked fine. Any reason to not use this version? (other than you can't scroll sideways worth anything)
Thank you from the future!

I have an older Nook Color running CyanogenMod. My previous workaround for Netflix stopped working. I googled and found this. And this works perfectly! Thanks so much for leaving or possibly even forgetting that apk in your drop box, I'm super pleased to be able to watch Netflix on tablet again.

what video calling app works with tab2?

Hi all,
So far I‘ve tried whatsapp, skype with disappointing results.
have anyone managed to have a decent video call on this tablet?
I don't have mine at the moment. Will tell you later next montr if you can wait.
But what do you mean by "disappointing results so far"? And did you try an other app such as Jitsi?
Audio is ok, video not so much. I only use skype and whatsapp, did not try something else

First of all this is a question and should go in question and troubleshooting forum. Why don't you try zoom ?????? Which android version are you on ????
the android version is 4.1.2. Zoom is not used by anyone I know.

Brother I use three video calling apps : zoom, Cisco webex, Google meet and I always think in terms of features and quality, zoom is the best out there. Anyway you can't install any of these apps on android 4.1.2, you will have to upgrade to android 6 minimum.
Thank you very much for your detailed reply!
I use Zoom regularly on Unlegacy's android 7 ROM. It works great, but I can't use Bluetooth headsets due to a bug in most of the roms out there. I'm currently trying to solve the bug, if you can try it and tell me how headsets are working for you during a videocall, that would be great!
