here is my issue, i have flashed numerous roms and when i try to use tango everyone says im upside down.
is there a rom that works with tango besides the stock rom?
it seems like its a lose lose situtation with these roms, you either give up netflix, hbo go, a2dp, and now tango.
if there is a video chat that works with the roms besides tango, can someone point me in that direction please!
Tango
Tango is broken on the g2x on their side from what I read...
but when i use stock rom it works and im not upside down...
Using cm7 and its OK for me. Video chatted with my gf almost every night. She lacks a FFC which sucked for her

Question: Does tango video chat work? Or even fring video chat?? Qik sucks... and to think skype bought them. Good luck skype.
not work with the front camera. and un-able to switch.
super slow!( in same city)
Market comments for Tango suggest that they will release an update for g2x support. As it is, everything works except initiating the forward facing camera, lol.

It works to record and send video mail. Unfortunately, the only person I know who has a front-facing video camera that I would want to video chat with is on an iPhone 4, and the Qik software on iPhone and Android are mutually incompatible at the moment. They say they are working on a fix, expected sometime "around the middle of April" (which, in case anyone hasn't looked at a calendar in a while, has come and gone). Oh, well, I'm sure it will be RSN...
I've tested qik with another fellow g2x user not bad, but1.3 mega pixel sucks

Hey guys,
I just wanted to let you all know that Tango is aware of the front facing camera issues on the G2x. Our engineers are investigating the issue and we hope to release a fix for this soon. We have not forgot about you guys
Stay tuned!
Ive tried fringe with no luck, even tried yahoo video with same results. Only app I know of right now that supports g2x front facing cam is qwik. Its not a bad software just not particulary great.

Just wondering if anyone has tried this now that we have a leak version of Gingerbread.

excellent question
I have successfully installed the gapps file that they ported for the Evo. It installs fine and when I open up gTalk it shows me as video chat available, it shows my available friends that have video, but when I try to do a video call it force closes.

I didnt install anything but the leaked GB rom and radio and if you go to contacts it shows a web cam looking camera at the bottom. I dont have any friends on this so cant test but from what I can tell its already included?
Yup works great except for they see me sideways.
!!Not Working!!

You call that great? all the videochat apps work just fine (as advertised) in froyo: tango, fring, qik, skype mobile (leaked not official).

I think that for my money Qik or Tango do just fine
Got it working (kind of) using latest CM7 build, direction is now the correct way but no microphone doesn't work. I can hear them but they can not hear me.

Doesn't a non-functional microphone kind of make it useless?
Qik and Tango do just fine. So does Fring (which also has group video) and the leaked Skype (of you're running a Froyo ROM. But this isn't about settling for just fine, or second fiddle, or just good enough. This is about figuring out a way to get gTalk working with Video Chat. Advantages is you can chat with someone on a phone, tablet, or a PC. To be honest I probably would not even use it much, it is just that I want to help because maybe others might have a bigger need for it. I know my wife loves it on her Evo and our Xoom. I figured since it has been leaked to the Evo for over two weeks now and now that we got a 2.3.4 ROM, we should be getting close.

Only a few things I miss on gb leak...Skype's one of them. Can't get gtalk to work. Fring/ tango aren't the best quality.

When I try to intall Skype from the market it locks up my phone and then reboots. I am not rooted, and on the latest OTA update.
Is this because I am on 2.2.1?
Shouldn't be a problem. I downloaded Skype after the latest (UCKH1) OTA update, and it installs and runs fine (aside from its not using the front camera, of course). Also stock unrooted here.

I had the exact same issue with my first Infuse. I haven't tried it on this new Infuse yet.
By the way, I did find a video calling app that works better than all of the others and is also available in the iPhone: ooVoo
I don't bother with Skype, Tango, Qik or any of the others. ooVoo has all I need.
I've started using fring which works great on the Infuse....
Tango, qik, skype..... None of them worked for me...

hey guys I've been looking for a rom that works with skype video calls without any problems. In weapon g2x I cant get video on either side and with stock rom It works for a couple of minutes but then I get a green screen. Anybody using a stable rom that works good with skype please let me know, thanks.
not a CM7 (based) rom
weapon works for me, except in portrait orientation, the video is upside down. works fine in landscape mode though
jose makalolot sent me his own rom mix and it works beautifully with oovoo and I havent had any problems with skype yet but I only used it for a couple of minutes but so far so good. Thanks Jose.

hey all,
so i use skype pretty often on my computer but i finally decided to start using it on my HOS. when did a test on my HOS it looks fine on my side but on the other persons side they have lines that go up and down and its has like a greenish brown tint going on.....kind like when an old tube tv starts to give out.
so my question is is skype compatible with axiom, ics?
lastest axiom
s4 HOS
stock kernel that came with axiom
note: my front and back camera works fine with video recording and photos.
anyone? 10 char
It is a Skype issue with not supporting our phones. They havent updated their app since 4/21. So it isnt the phone, it is Skype's lack of support. Try Tango.
