New Skype modded to work over 3G in the US!

I have put together a modified version of the skype apk from the market that works over 3G anywhere. Be sure to uninstall the Market app first!
Download Here!

It works awesome! Great job. Nexus one/ CM6

Doesn't work for me, just like the other one here.

Thanks, gonna test it on my Evo.

Still doesn't work on samsung galaxy s

The original app doesnt work for Galaxy S as of now and the difference between original and this seems to be that this one works over 3g while the original works over wifi only.
So when the original doesnt work for Galaxy how do you expect the modded one to be working for it when the OP hasnt mentioned anything about it?

Works perfectly...even on EDGE
THANKS!!!

Despite my suspicisions, seems (test call went through ok) to be working on my EVO over 3G.
Thanks

When I try to launch it, it immediately force closes. Does it require root? Running stock on my G2.

seemed like it worked, however every time it connects, it kicks me off of data. and i have to turn on airplane mode, and back off to restart all wireless.
and even then it doesnt actually work.....

Just FCs on start on my rooted G2. Market version works over wifi fine.

It works good on my htc hero 2.1 ROM thanks!

G1 Cyanogen 5
Works pretty well on a g1 with cyanogen 5. I have a flaky 3g connection so calls are bad, but woo 3g

Works perfectly fine on Evo4g, this type of thing is what 4g is perfect for.

Works like a charm. Good job!
AT&T N1 CM6

MyTouch3g Slide
Also works on the mytouch slide. (nonrooted)

How did you modify it, is there a way to decompile the program? I have a SGS and I'd love to get it working ..

am i missing something here? I installed skype this week from the market place and i just made a call to the sound test with only an edge signal, it only distorded slightly a couple of times but perfectly usable.
can't everyone do this?
or does the sound test work over anything?

Skype with video calling!! UPDATE: now officially supported on the market.

I didn't make this work, I take no credit for it. I just distribute it to the masses. I found this on the Galaxy Tab forum and thought if it works on my Tab, why not my phone too? So I tried and it does! The video freezes when you switch to the back camera but other than that its seems to work fine. Have fun!

Someone reported that this doesn't work on froyo. Apparently after installing this on froyo the legit version couldn't be reinstalled. So proceed with caution.
Someone found a link to get it working on froyo. I haven't verify it works because I'm not on froyo.

Can't get it to work, it tells me to reinstall Skype.

Works great! Awesome find! Thanks for this!

i'll check it out right now
UPDATE: First, i can't video call out, i have to receive it. Second, it forse closes when you try to answer with video. I'm running Bionix Black Ice and Bali 3.2UV. I would try Trigger but they're both KD1 based ROMs so i don't think it will change. I might flash KF2 just for this though.

Nope for me...
For me, on stock kd1 + root, it crashes skype as soon as I use video (initiate a video call, or touch the video icon). It won't receive video either when the other side starts their video.
PS: I already had skype installed (latest from Market), and even after uninstalling it would not install at first, giving a message about not enough available storage (even though there was plenty). The fix was to remove the /data/data/com.skype.raider directory that somehow was not removed when the app was uninstalled... The same was needed after uninstalling this one to go back to the Market version.

Has anyone tried mobile to pc calling? Or is this only mobile to mobile?

Not sure yet

I noticed it's a GB only thing or are people successful on froyo? Based on the official update it looks like a GB only app. Still skeptical about the kf2 leak but this and netflix would be well worth it for me.

To answer my own question I have no luck on stock froyo.

CF3D works, but I don't know of any plugins for the Charge (if you find some let me know!)
If I remember right, NoMoarPowah worked back in EE4. I assume it would work now.

Just installed CF3D and the driver. If I don't change any settings will my performance still be better?

I actually didn't notice any performance improvements when I ran it. Didn't see a decrease either.
The settings really depend on the game you're trying to play. Experiment.

I used chainfire...I tried it with stock rooted and it didn't work
...it worked with tweaked but I don't know if it helped (i didn't really test it)...i bought mobile odin pro just to support developing and gave CHAINS a dump file...and every market update I try it again...not working yet... I bought the moar power...it works...but if you don't like it...it take more than a simple uninstall to remove it...which means your phone keeps turning on everytime you charge it...until you clean out the right files

Probably because it doesn't work in any released 4.2.2 yet except using the tempfix hack in the general forum section.

With the WiFi fix and twrp. I am really liking this ROM...thanks Beastmode...

GPS
Im a little confused I don't see the GPS toggles Does this Rom not have GPS yet? Other then that Damn this is nice and smooth like butter.

I'm just wondering, is the phone call hearing problem still a bug in 4.2.2 or is it fixed? Also does YouTube work? These are the only 2 reasons why I am hesitating to flash this.

YouTube works fine for me, just

Speaker and regular.. Don't see any problems..hearing is fine.

So phone calls are able to be heard from the ear-piece instead of speaker?
Edit: Can someone answer this please?

Was about to install the new 10.1 update and saw this, so many choices! Installing this one as we speak, can't wait to try it out.

anyone notice any auto brightness changes?
is auto brightness working correctly.?

Lol. It's suck to see you guys enjoying new roms. My phone was busted in the washing machine by accident. I am waiting for a new motherboard to arrive to fix it.

I've been using the Neutron Music Player. The sound quality is amazing, but most people don't like the UI. I actually kind of like the interface though and the sound is simply amazing.

Tethering via wifi
Is this possible on the rom? I tried it just laughed at me and called me fat (well it did not work but hey) Making sure i did not miss something.

Did you try using Barnacle or the Wifi tethering for root users apps previously suggested for people with problematic tethering?
Fixing the built-in wifi tethering is a goal, but one that probably needs wifi itself to properly work first. Or at least, to work without needing to be activated through another script...

OK just a few tips to get beanstalk smooth. Install nova launcher holo seemed to lag allot. Install seeder and root cleaner. Im not sure but using the xposed installer seemed to make the ROM respond better. Now my beanstalk is silky smooth
