Why are Skype and fring not working after 2.3.4 update???
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Skype worked before the update? 0.0
...But seriously, folks, Skype's Android app has always been an embarrassment.
It does work for me...
Cheers
Both work for you or just Skype? I've read that fring doesn't work with 2.3.4 for a lot of people. Has there been a fix yet?

This is crap. Removing the capability of a software available in the market is such a bad tactic to promote ur product.

Hello friends. I just wanted to say that Fring is working on a fix for this issue and should be out soon. Google is not responsible for fixing a 3rd party application. Don't worry, you will get an update for Fring soon.
PS: Their latest beta fixes the issue.
So i have this awesome late 4g with a ffc and can't seem to find a way to video chat to my friends on a pc..... Is there anything out there?

Hey xda well Skype just update and now has video chat on nexus s and a couple other phones and I was wondering if there's a way to make it think we have a nexus but I'm pretty sure it might be the same steps when people tried the Netflix app. Also I think I read its only gingerbread not sure anybody on cm7 might give it a try.? Thanks xda.

I am interested in getting this working as well. I use skype for business as well as to my brother in law in Alaska. It would be nice to use my phone instead of being tied to a less mobile laptop.
+1 so far there is no way to have a video call to a pc.. whether it is skype, gtalk, or msn
+1 comeon skype - i have dual camera's and wifi/fast3g on my g2x - i just want some video chatting to other skype folks.
When oovoo updates thier app, we'll be able to use that to video call computers.

Yahoo messenger video chat works only problem is it uses the wrong camera on the phone cant get the other camera to work
but everything else works great have to dowload the video plug in as well as the messenger from market
Well I just thought it would be cool to be able to video chat with Skype. When oovoo updates ill be using that to video chat.

There is a solution for that in the atrix thread. I am using it and I can switch between bfc and ffc.

Oovoo app is already able to video call Oovoo members on pc. I have been using it for over two months.

You have to change multiple lines in the build.prop. Not just the line that shows your phone model. I used this method to get my MLB at-bat live to work on my Vibrant 4g.
My G2x isn't rooted yet, but if someone posts the build prob I can show you the lines to change.
Try:
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.manufacturer=Samsung
If that doesn't work post a build.prop file... I believe another line might need to be changed..

I'm getting my sensation tomorrow and was curious if skype video calling works? Coming from a g2x I was pretty annoyed that it didn't, I'm hoping that since the sensation has a different processor, that it will be compatible. Thanks!

Yes, it is working =)
That's awesome to hear. Do I need to get a hacked apk from xda or will the market version work?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
No, you don't need hacked apk, just download it from market. And video calling should work.
Okay when I first downloaded Skype I got the video chat to work, now I can't seem to get it to work. It just makes a call but no video!!

For anyone else having trouble
Go into Skype settings and enable video calling!
