Is anyone have issue on tango using eagleblood 2.5 or phenixblood 1.6. Viewer see me as upside down while I see my camera is in the right position. Is it me or its the camera?
It's the camera.
Always been the camera.
I don't have this problem on other roms. It just happen on eagleblood.
I had this problem with qik on pb. I wiped and reflashed rom but it still happened. Ultimately I just used Skype instead, no problems and it seems smoother.

Is there a fix to this? Its so stuttery its basically unusable when recording video. Tried BAMF and Gingerbits and they both do it.
I couldnt find any sollution.
Thanks.
Turn off auto focus. Only way to fix it as both devs have said that it is definately an issue.

worked thank you!
So Skype released a new update for a lot ore phones, the Thunderbolt is finally included in the video calling list. YAY, right?
Well if you read the description you find this: "On Android 2.2 (Froyo), only the back camera will work. This is because only devices running Android OS 2.3 or higher allow apps to access the front facing camera."
So you can video chat..but only with the rear camera...what good is that for video chat?!?
I don't understand their justification....on 2.2 I was able to use the leaked/hacked skype apk and the front facing cam worked fine
Exactly! It's total BS.

At least it's a start. Honestly, though, GTalk with video has been great.
where did you see this new release?
on the skype website?
nm found your quote on the market.
I just installed and tested it out w/ my wife vide/audio is working
currently running gbdebloat.
@bliang - does the gtalk video also have the same problem as skype where
you have to put the phone in landscape in order to fix the rotated video?
I get some kind of package error when installing on CM7.

Installed on CM7 but won't let me sign in or create a new account. However it keeps trying to start up with the cloud and sync circle in the notification bar. Even killed it and it just reappeared.
Sent from my Xoom or Thunderbolt, pick one
is that old skype apk that was working on stock still avaible?
Nevermind, i didnt have it enabled in the settings...
It does work in CM7 RC1.4 for me with the front camera.

Front camera works my phone (running CM7), but sound is missing. Anyone else able to confirm this problem?
Well you could always face the back camera to you and stand in front of a mirror/place a mirror in front so you can see the screen

Same...damn, didn't notice it last time I tested.
well this is depressing. i've been waiting to use skype b/c most of the people i want to chat with don't have tango, fring or video gchat on their unrooted phones.

Sweetness.
Cool, Just downloaded it. Love video chat, would rather have Talk w/Video too.
Useless. Unless there is a way to change the video only being captured on the back camera...
Please post here if you have completed a video call with the front facing camera.
EDIT: this is a know issue with Froyo listed here:

Is anyone on GB able to complete a call?

That statement is not correct...oovoo works using the front facing camera on the charge using Froyo.

+1 it is not an issue with Froyo. Skype developers just can't code...

Something like that. I was able to use the FFC and Skype with my coworker's iPhone4.
Just tested Skype with Gingerbread, front camera works fine. Although you have to hold the phone horizontal for some reason.
Update to leaked GB
The leaked GB will allow Skype to work with the FFC. I've used it a couple times now. Works fairly well... now for Verizon to actually release a major update... waiting... waiting...
and before anyone asks, i've only tried with the Gingerbread Stock EP1f (Android 2.3.4) out of the CHARGE KIT v2. Talk Video isn't working for me yet...
Oh, and it is actually an issue with FroYo. The API stuff for front facing camera access was only added in Gingerbread. Presumably the API the other apps are using to access the front facing camera is non-standard.
Maybe non standard, but other less known names took the time to make it work.
Fring works fine with the front camera.

Seeing as how 2 people have already pointed out that apps can use the front facing cam on Froyo, I'm guessing this is a false statement.

I guess you could call them lazy for not using device-specific API, but I'd say it's a justified engineering decision.
I can't even find information about how to access the front camera on FroYo. Can you post a link that explains how to do it?
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

i will try the weapon g2x rom with qik, i think i used tango and was also said i was upside down on that rom...
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.

I agree with this. Has its moments though. By the way I am running CM7 nightly.
