Google Talk with Video Chat? - myTouch 4G General

Is there a way to get this without being rooted?

Google talk w/ video was added in 2.3.5. So, no. Not that I know of. Anyone else?
Edit: Whoops. 2.3.4. If you have adb. . .

HTC Video Calling

I've searched and found no results for this so I appologize if it's been mentioned. When I open the "people" there is a "video call" tab. Is it possible to use this feature?
Ah no there isnt what rom u on ?

I don't know of anyone that has been able to use it.. you probably need someone with a sensation or Thunderbolt in your contacts

I have people with thunderbolts in my contacts who also have that video call option, but nothing comes up.

Gingerbread is going to have Skype video calling built in. It should start arriving on the 30th.

alot of people actually believe that to be a fake "leak"
Now what about Google talk video chat? I have it, and it shows a camera next to my name, but doesn't show my fiance's as having video capabilities when I look at her name on my list. We both are running the same ROM and when looking at her list she has a camera next to her name but not mine. We both have it checked to allow video chat in the preferences.

i think it only works on some roms. I see the same thing when testing a chat from pc to phone and the pc will initially see the video but once initiated it will say the device isnt currently supported

Google Talk Video Chat - HTC Sensation

Does anyone know if this works and I am just not seeing the video icons in my friends list, or if this is prohibited with the Gtalk pre-installed on the sensation.
IF the latter is there an open APK that will allow this from another forum perhaps?

Official app only works in 2.3.4

only bad thing about VTOK is when I had it installed it never shut off & drained by battery quickly. Even with the screen off, it was always using the CPU & keeping wifi on. Signing out of your google account didn't shut it down either
I've emailed the developer but still haven't heard back after a week.
On my galaxy tab I am running the Overcome 2.0.1 ROM which is a Gingerbread 2.3.3. The version of Google talk pre-installed with it does video chat. Perhaps there it a way to extract the APK from the galaxy Tab and use it with our 2.3.3 phones?
I could be completely wrong on this, but...
I believe that the Talk app is installed into the system folder and therefore we'd have to push the replacement file into the system folder, which we can't do right now?

Hi guys,
What version of Talk actually works on the Sensation then? I have insertcoin 3.3.9 which gives me android 2.3.5 with 3.5 sense but i cannot for the life of me work out how to get the video icons on my contacts. I have tried everything and still nothing as even tapping on my avatar does not give me an option to enable / disable video.
Anyone know what i need to do?
So far it's been working for me with most of the versions of InsertCoin. Just make sure that the contacts on the side has enabled their option to receive video calls.

You want skype with video just downloaded from the android market

The skype on the android market doesn't appear to let video chat work. I can get video chat working on my Evo 3D but on the 4G it just doesn't show that option anywhere.
Is a special APK required? It says on there Evo 4g supported, yet it doesn't allow it.
This evo is completely stock.

Yeah it's there on the Evo 3D but not the 4G. Anyways I used a hacked apk and it seems to have worked.

When I installed from the market, Skype freezes when I do the following:
sign in
click contacts
click back
click menu
choose sign out
...but when I installed the apk I got from the forum, I can perform the steps above repeatedly and it doesn't lock up... It's weird

Skype video

Has anyone who updated their phone to 2.3.3 tried installing the APK in which one can video chat? I can do it on the Sensation and on the Samsung Exhibit and I am wondering if you guys have tried with any success on the G2x? Thanks!
I tried OovoO and it worked maybe skype should too.
I remember oovoo wasnt working on g2x

No official skype app that is working. Hacked app, maybe. Oovoo has been working with froyo and the v21e update. Also, build.prop hack works.

Tried the hacked Skype App with video and it closes on me just before logging me in. It doesn't work for some reason. Oovoo works fine, but it worked on the Froyo as well.
Has anyone managed to make Skype video work on the new Gingerbread build?

I am on 2.3.3 latest 'official' build as released by LG the other day. The hacked Skype loads and installs ok, and works ok once you don't try to set it up to use video. Once you do, it just keeps closing.
I would LOVE to have the Skype video working, as I use it often. The only other issue that I have with Skype is that even with synch turned off, it keeps loading itself and connecting. WHY? Grrrr.... can anyone give me a setting to stop this?
In GB 2.3.3 of course!

You might want to try this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.wetcarrot.stopskype
I have the same issue and even if you force stop Skype, still restart itself. They need to fix that! I would suggest sending an e-mail to developers.
Skype video doesn't work for me either:-(

works on my inspire, just tested it. Did you change your screen DPI? If so that would be why you can't download many apps. There is a procedure to get around that, i dont have the link offhand though.

It doesn't work well anyway. I can download it to mine, but the search functions were so terrible it was better to use the browser. I deleted it.
