Funny thing is I see. But when I click it won't give me the option to download.
No big deal I'm loving this coredroid Rom.
Edit: after a quick clear data I was able to download it.

I just download the new skype and still can not get it to work on my HTC sensation. If I try to call someone via skype, the call fails. If someone calls me, it comes through, however no video. They can see me, I can not see them. Frustrating. Any help would be great.

Works fine over 4G for me.

Idk what to tell ya brother. Sounds like possibly a conflict with the ROM you may be using.

Very good this Skype app, it is working fine for me. I test front camera and it is just perfect. But it was on wlan, not on mobile network.

Anybody figure out how to keep it portrait when doing video calls? Mine always turns landscape.

This occurs when the other person is using a outdated version of Skype on their computer.
Tell them to update to the latest version and it should be perfect.

Can anyone confirm back can working

Thanks alot. Finally got a chance to check it out and both cameras work. No more freezing as well.

Does anyone else have an issue when putting the phone to the ear using skype causes the volume to fade in and out most likely due the proximity sensor?
I do not get the fading in and out when using speakerphone.

I love it
It works fine and i was very impressed by the quality of the videocall, both WiFi which is supergood and 3g is better than i have ever seen on a 3g call.

Here are the screen shots showing both front and back cameras working on video call

Front facing camera on desire z/ g2 solved?

So I came across this on one of the forums , it sound like a good idea i was wondering if anyone knows if it fits dz .has anyone got it yet? It will be grerat if it works well http://ciccaresedesign.blogspot.com/2010/12/android-video-call-for-all-devices.html

So its like a mirror reflective from the back camera to your face? Pretty clever I say.
They haven't release it yet they call it onemoreface, I think they are still in the state of building it maybe a few more months hopefully january and when they finally release it hopefully its compatible with G2. This addon will solved my issues regarding my constant use of video call :happy:excited:

I'd buy it. Never video call, but still cool to have.
Plus it's a 5MP front camera

I Hope this will get released soon and for a few different models other then the Nexus One in the picture, I will buy at least two one for my Nexus the other for the HTC Desire Z , but I got a funny feeling that by the time this rolls out it might be to late, within the next six months most smart phones will all have what Nokia has been doing for years, front face cameras, then this gadget will be to late.

It would be too late if in six months everyone ditches their phone for one with an ffc. Ill have my g2 longer than that. And I don't know why it would take 6 months to release two mirrors that mount to the top of your phone. You could ?ake this for yourself right now it looks like.

[APP] **Modded Skype W/Advanced Tweaks** Works With Any 2.3.4 Rom

Tried several 2.3.4 roms with Skype(market version) and video wouldn't work at all only audio. Searched through different forums and doing several google searches I came across this modded version and it works flawlessly and also has Advanced Settings so you can mod your front and back camera to your liking as well as sound mods. Here it is folks.
***DO NOT INSTALL OVER ORIGINAL SKYPE***
Clean Install Only.
I'm using the latest LEEDROID rom and it works great.
Here It Is----> http://www.mediafire.com/?8mgf7q0n31wtkwh

I'm using it now..I don't see any reason to use it because the camera options work still on 2.3.4 if you use the leaked Skype from a month ago. It was named skype_2_0_0_47-signed.apk and it worked just fine.
This one works too..i deleted the old one to install this one...I love it..doent kill the battery or anything though. Happy with Skype now.
after i enable video,, program keeps crashing. i'm on revolver2.5. any help is appreciated.

I think that is the Sense launcher app restarting. I have had it happen twice... both times I was using the web browser. The first time was right after I installed the latest Flash update, so it is possible that it has something to do with a recent update. I have also never gotten the updated Market app, but I've played with it on my wife's G2 and honestly I don't like it as much so I am not complaining.
Well that update is on tablets but some devs just extracted it out and gave it to the general public. But you should try a custom theme. When i was on stock rom, I would get the same problem but when I got a custom theme it would reduce its refresh rate.

My girls sensation is having the same problem. They offered to exchange it with a g2x but why? T-Mobile said it is a known issue and the only thing that they can do is just send another sensation that will do the same thing until HTC resolves the issue but I think it is BS to pay for a phone that is having software issues. Gay!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
What the op is seeing is normal Android behaviour. When the system runs low on RAM it kills the biggest RAM hogs running in the background.
Sense is the biggest, so it often gets the boot. There are Tweaks you can do on a rooted phone to avoid this, but if you go far enough to root, then you can install a custom ROM and avoid the memory hogging bloatware altogether.

Correct...its looping back to the loading screen because of memory, and reloading sense
You could try using launcher pro/adw/go launcher
All are very good (I prefer adw myself) and completely solved the crashing for me.

(Needs root) Add line: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 to the end of the build.prop file in /system - reboot. This will prevent Sense from reloading.

I've been having the same issue for a couple of hours now. It started very suddenly (hadn't done any changes to my system or settings). I tried restarting my phone, clearing the app data (which led me to register on whatsapp again and got the same warning about running custom roms) but the problem persists. I don't receive anything and nothing gets sent (pending clock icon). Any suggestions?
