I put Skype on my XT720 today because it said it would work with the back camera (since there's no front facing one). I tried some calls though and the video didn't seem to work... Does anyone know if skype back video calling actually works with the XT720? It could be just an issue with the ROM I'm on or I'm doing something wrong, but I'm curious to know if anyone has actually had it work for them.
Thanks

i flashed to HTC professional 1921 and i have a problem when i receive calls. i can only receive and hear them when i'm on speaker (i noticed some of the people have this problem on VoIP - but i'm talking about regular phone calls) The person on the other end of the phone can hear me fine. I can only during calls using speakerphone or headphones.
i searched the forum, but didn't find and answer
does anyone know how can i fix this?

Flash another rom just to be sure it's not a hardware problem.
Good luck!
I to am experiencing a similar issue. Have you tried talking on the phone when you flip it and fold? Basically putting it in portrait mode, is that when you don't get any sound? That is when I don't get any sound, but if I just leave it open in laptop mode I can hear, but trying to talk to someone looks very awkward.
hey i have the same problem , but it's seems to be an hardware problem , what's odd is , it's happen after i flashed :S . anyway i flashed back to my operator ROM and used my insurence .... it's all fixed now .

Yeah, it happened to me after i flashed which is weird. i agree it must be a hardware problem though because I just flashed to the button rom and am still not hearing anything during calls. Unfortunately, my warranty has already run out...so sad.
i think it's an no luck thing . maybe it was humid in you room or who knows .
u should fix it at some store - hope they gonna keep the price cheap .
My phone has a problem in QIK for TMOB. It does not work with the back camera only works with front facing camera. But I downloaded regular Qik app from market and it does work perfectly. Does anyone else has this problem?
Also you might be wondering if regular qik works, what is the problem? The problem is when somebody calls me I am not able to flip my camera (I guess the tmob app opens up.) Then I have to call them back using regular qik and everything works fine.
By the way my phone is not rooted and nothing has been moded.

Well when most of these problems occur their is three routes you can usually take:
1) Uninstall the update that happened when you first opened the T-mobile Qik and than re-update it.
2)Just freeze/uninstall the T-mobile app from your phone and just use market one.
3)Yell at the heavens and curse T-mobile for condemning the G2x to a life burdened with bloatware.

I like your 3rd option....
On a serious note, I tried the first solution you gave, but it did not work for me somehow. And I guess the second option needs rooting, which I am still not comfortable with. I came from HD2. I did lots of testing there but I didn't care about that phone anymore. But I love this phone which I don wanna mess up.
Anyways, thanks for the suggestions.

Well on a serious note rooting for this phone is cake and with oneclickroot you can unroot the phone too if your heart desires. Plus when you root you can change alot of simple settings to extend battery life and make the phone run better!

I guess I will be rooting it tonight then. Coz this small problems irritate me when I have really high end device like G2X. Thanks for giving me some extra push which I needed.
Thanks a lot for your help.

No problem someone had to push me my first time rooting too. And after you root look at the link in my sig for some tips on how to get more battery life.
When I opened Qik it said there was an update and directed me to the Market. With Record and Share open, when you hit menu, there's a button to switch the camera between front and back.
I guess the Sensation is not the first device to have this problem -
When using Fring, the front-facing camera shows my face as upside down to the other person , which means I have to rotate it 180 degs for them to see me right, which obviously means I get to see freaky people who's hair are defying gravity and who speak from their foreheads..
Anyways, I googled for solutions and found out that fring support apparently has an apk which has fixed this issue and they are sending it to people individually when they open a service ticket (no such luck at my end so far)...
But I thought it's worth throwing out here to see if anybody else has such an apk to share with all of us.
Thanks in advance,
mOrph
anybody with an apk? anybody at all??
I know this is a stupid question but have you tried reinstalling it?

Yes I did. Tried reinstalling. Having done a coupla hours of google searching, what I found out is Sensation isnt the first or only device to have this issue.
I finally heard back from Fring support. Here's what they had to say -
"Hello,
Thank you for contacting our support team.
Please note that the handset you are currently using is not officially supported by fring.
We are aware of the issue and working to solve it in the near future.
Make sure to check our blog for version updates http://www.fring.com/blog
Please feel free to contact us again should you have any further queries."
I am also having this problem, although I do have to say that is not just a problem with fring. I also have the same problem using the T-Mobile Qik video chat. I have seen fixes for the problem for other devices that would probably work, assuming I had a rooted phone...
Has anyone found a way to fix this without root??? This is the only thing wrong with my T-Mobile Sensation.
And please don't tell me to hold the phone upside down, that is not an acceptable solution.
Also it would be interesting to find out if there is anyone who doesn't have this problem. Considering this is the only thread about it, I'm beginning to think that this is a problem only on certain devices.
Tango works fine download that
I can confirm that Tango does work correctly, although the audio seems quite garbled. Hard to hear the other person, although they were on 3g at the time and not on WiFi.
Qik said they are working on an update to support the sensation.
So does the Sensation have an upside down front facing camera and just correct for it in the software? It seems weird that the video is upside down. I would understand having no video, as that could be a driver problem, or an interface problem.
When I use Qik video calling the person on the other end says I am upside down.
I've had this issue before in the past with certain roms causing the issue.
I only have 1 buddy that has Qik for me to test..
My question..
Does anybody else have this issue or is it most likely my buddies rom on his phone?
UPDATE : I can now confirm qik works. My buddies phone was what was causing the problem.

hard to tell and honestly I haven't used the front camera much lately but it does work for me using Tango app... I had heard of this issue way back on early GB leaks but have no idea why its doing it on the stock OTA, must be an app issue or could be your friends phone/rom
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Whenever I call people on the loudspeaker, the person on the other end says I sound muffled or crackly. Anyone else have the same issue. Fastboot flashed stock rom and made no difference.
Yeah I've been having the same issue since the phone came out. Not sure if it can be fixed or not with a software update.
Glad it isn't just me
same here!
yea having the same issue
Try recording a video of yourself using the front facing camera, how does it sound?

I have the same proplem. Any now if it is software or harsware issue.
also when i hit the on/off button for waking the phone up the front camera is going up and down.
I have the same issue, Microphone works fine in other apps
Same problem here, spoke with support and they unable to help. I've had this problem for a while now and considering getting rid of this phone if no fix very soon. Unfortunately this has put me off ever buying oneplus again.
