It's #G video call over network without data
Hi, I think you are mistaken with the Skype/Tango/G talk or whatsoever that uses data and require the other party to have these installed.
I think what the origin of this thread was asking for is a 3G video call over the network without the need to have data plan. I used to call using 3G video using my old win mobile 6 phone to my wife's Nokia Symbian phone or my Dad Sony Ericsson phone without data line but now I'm using the Galaxy Nexus, I don't have that option. If I use the Nokia phone to call 3G video, it will say number is busy.
I think we just need the dialer to support video call. Not internet video call.

ya i am also agree in india skype tango are not so popular but 3g sim vedio call is so popular because it is cheap here so google plz provide vedio call option like galaxy s2 ands galaxy s is having

Video Call for NS

Hi,
I've read a lot of threads, but no luck and no info about it.
IS it possible to have the SGS phone interface (GSM or 3G) Video Call for our Nexus S??
I'm not interested on Gtalk Video Call... I want 3G Video Call
Best Regards,
R
simply no
i personally asked this question before, it's supposedly not doable without the TW framework from SGS i9000
Tango works pretty good and will use the front facing cam.
Hi,
Thanks for your answers.
I know Tango, but it's only for Wifi or data, and i have free 3g videocalls.
I user fring on Wifi, but the videocalls on gsm/3g it was what i want.

OoVoo in the market. Its free. I just downloaded and used it. My friend only had a rear facing cam, so I only saw what was on that cam, but he said my pic was clear.
It used 3g, I have my wifi off.

This isn't what we are asking on this thread.
Still no info... Hardware isn't the same? What do we need? Kernel Mod's for this?

Video calls

Guys, how can I make a video call with the Sensation?

I would imagine it's no different than any other phone... Just use a video calling app. Qik, oovoo, tango, yahoo, et al.

Thanks mate! I thought that the function is integrated within HTC dialer.
It would be nice to see a way to make regular 3G video calls. I mean these video calls every non-smartphone device with a front camera can do over 3G. The only known android phone that implements this is the Galaxy S.
Yes, that would actually be great. Is there a way of making regular 3G video calls?

No video calling and Microsoft just bought them out. I doubt we'll see it soon unfortunately.

I downloaded Skype and I haven't figured out how to make a video call yet (just voice). I'm guessing I have to use the Qik app that came with the phone...problem is not many of my friends use Qik...they use Skype. Kinda disappointing

As stated above, Skype does not support video calls for mobile yet. I heard they are working on it, but who knows how long it will take with Microsoft taking over. It'll show up on WP7 before we see it at this point.

You sure he doesn't have a custom Rom on his mt4g? Cause tango for me works perfect.

If you go to Skype's website it says that mobile video calling will be available for Verizon's LTE 4g network soon. I hope it's not exclusive just to Verizon users.

If your carrier allows it. If they do not you can root and edit gservices.db to allow it.

My carrier allows 3g video calls.. but I dint see any option for making video calls while making calls.. how can I edit gservices.db?

You can use GTalk To make video calls.
With Gtalk 1.3 you shuld be able to make video calls. I treied it yesterday, but as I was on 3G could get only a screen and then phone hung.

You would only need to edit the gservices.db if you try to make a video call and it states you need to be on wifi via a dialog.
In Google Talk there will be a video camera on the right where the status circle is instead of the circle. Hit the camera and you'll initiate a video call.

How can i make video calls

Specially here in Europe where Gtalk videocalls are not supported.

What's the difference between this and Skype? I've made alot of videocalls on Skype and at least I can call friends on PC. What's the benefit of having Fringe installed? It's something like Whatsapp but for video calls as I see.
I understood that OP wants to make a 3G Video call...not a video call through whatever data connection it's active on the phone(including 3G). From my understanding that is a video call service that's depending on the operator. Vodafone is offering that in RO, I belive it's available for other countries/operators as well. And that means you can video call someone by his phone number
The service is described better HERE
Exactly rapier......
I meant the video calls through mobile network..... Not through internet....... Evn many java phones does this...... Y cant our much much advanced smart phones do this....??
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
I find gtalk smooth.
Think you can install gtalk with videocalls for desire s if you're rooted
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
Other option is if you both have the viber app
Plus Skype and fring as others have mentioned

I am in the same situation... I want to use this service too, but I started to think that is impossible with android phone. I had three phones with Android so far, but none of them have this option.....
As I saw, phones with 3G video call have a dedicated buton for this. This is not the case with our Android phones.
I called my operator now (Vodafone) and I got the confirmation. Android phones are not compatible with this service. Only phones that have a dedicated video call buton and are listed on the operator's compatibility list can use this service

Can some1 develop sumthing like this?????

3G native calling is not supported by Android. Only Samsung and LG android phones support it.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
I was searching for this some time too. Unfortunately only apps like Skype or Fring are making this possible on my Desire S, but the client has to be installed on the other person phone too and this is a bit limiting. This is my only dissapointment of Android so far but I am finding it strange to have this service natively supported on my 2008' Nokia but not on my 2011' smartphone.
I truly hope that someday someone will suddenly share a nice way do make videocalls through the mobile network with Desire S
Tango is a very good video call app

olyloh6696, you just opened this thread. Could it be exactly what the OP here wanted? I just recall, when I was using Edymion ROM, that I had that video camera buton but never tried to use it. It could be the equivalent of the hardware "video call" buton on some phones for making 3G calls. Someone with sense rom could eventually try it

I have it on Virtuous too. But how can we add recipients there?
You shouldn't add recipients...sorry cause I don't have the ROM installed to try, but I suppose that button works identical with the normal "call" button, just that it is a video call instead. The person you are calling should support the video calling feature and have the service active from the operator in order for it to work. The way it should be used is by selecting a person from your contacts, then call using that video buton instead of the normal call button
Ah thanks! That clears it up! Cheers

From your normal phone, you dial a short number with star and hash to check your credits, or to subscribe for a service or to a ringtone, well this is called ussd.

Well i dont think it is a hardware problem. iPhone 4 has the exact same radio like the motorola xoom 3g (The Qualcomm MDM6600)
Maybe the firmware motorola has flashed into the radio disabled voice call capabilities?
Samsung Galaxy tab does not support voice call but after installing a firmware mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929479) it can now voice call over GSM
what do you think?
Hmmm. Interesting. Can't really give you a firm answer on the firmware mod, but what I tested was that Xoom couldn't get voice call on. Simply the call might get thru, but voice can't be established as device speaker / mic don't function / get triggered with that.
