Skype with video on SK4G

Hey all,
this is just to let you know that droidrx hacked a version of Skype with video that works on Froyo devices, I tried it and it works on the Sidekick 4G.
Check out the thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153285
Yay !

The video works and I can hear the other person just fine, but they can't hear me.

I don't know... Try to quit all processes before you install with task manager.
Go to the original thread and send your adb logcat output, maybe the dev can help you out.

installed perfectly.
i can see the person on the other end good but the volume seems to be pretty low to be useful.

Yes, even with the volume maxed out it's pretty low. Using a headset is useful

sensation and doctorz

Did you do your wipes before?
Try toggling thru speakerphone a few times to see if it helps.
It is normal that Hellraised ROMs have no sound on first call after flash.

Could have been an app you installed preventing it from booting properly, try to make a nandroid of your current rom then restore back to your original rom and let us know if it boots. If it does, it's most likely something on your rom. If it still doesn't boot that's more of a hardware issue.

Did you properly wipe, did you install a rom, you have to tell more information then just saying it wont boot could be anything why it wont boot answer what you did before you got to the point you are in now and then we can help.

You might want to tell people what the issue was and how you fixed it. Simply saying, "it's fixed," doesn't help people.

Well, I'm not stupid to ask for that... No one was calling, no music app was launched and no alarm - that is strange...

Its a phantom call. But realy. Google it. You'll see.

Ok we need more info about your phone, if you are on official ROM or a custom ROM
and what applications you use.
You could try rooting your phone if its not already rooted and install CWM .
After you install cwm take a backup and factory reset your phone.
Try it without any 3rd party apps for a day and see if it still "plays music on its own".
You could also try a v21E based Custom ROM and check if your phone still does that..

The problen is maybe with some app that you have installed.In the app manager look what applications are working in the background and you will find a cause of you problem...

Did you have earphones plugged in at the time?
If you're cable is somewhat loose, it sometimes begins playing music as it does so by default when you plug in earphones.
For that there's an app: DisableAutoPlay which I used when getting that auto play.

mic not working after flashing rom

I flashed a couple new JB roms after being on CM9 RC2 for a long time and now my microphone isn't working correctly. When making a phone call, I can hear the other person but they can't hear me. I've tried wiping the phone, cache and dalvik, even doing a nandroid backup didn't fix the issue. Any fixes?

What rom and radio are you on? I'm guessing you flashed a cm 10.1 and you're not using ucmc1 radio.

I had flashed CM10.1 first, but had issues (probably because I didn't upgrade the radio) and have flashed a few different ones trying to get my mic working again, (CM10, CM9.1, Superlite JB) nothing has fixed the microphone problem. It's not just in phone calls too, if I try to do a voice search, it acts like there is signal from the microphone, but then says "please speak into the microphone" and will not do anything. I tried updating the radio to ucmc1, but that did not fix it

It looks like I can get calls to work in speaker phone, just not regularly, but I rarely ever use speaker phone

It's sounding like a hardware issue if you tried all those different roms.

It only happened after I changed roms, which makes me believe that caused the issue. Also, if i have my mouth right on the mic, I can barely hear myself on the other end, so maybe it's a mic gain issue

Update: the phone works fine on speaker phone, but that is through a different mic than the handset mic. If anyone has a solution please let me know, otherwise I'll be getting a new phone

OK I have done all the research still could not find a fix and now I'm in a terrible position n desperately need help.
I had a rooted rom and my Mic stopped working (I.e : the person on the other end cannot hear me even if I shout but of I turn my loudspeaker on they can hear me but not on the headset) I did a master reset reflashed the rom but nothing changed. On the forum somewhere it.was.mentioned to go back to stock and try I have done that aswell.
Now I am on stock 2.3.6..baseband Ucmc1, kernal 2.6.35.11, build : gingerbread uckj2.
The main problem
1. I cannot Odin because my USB port seems to have a problem on connecting to the PC it starts charging but does not get recognised (does not let me enter dload mode)
2. Since now I am on stock I do not have cwm on me obviously and cannot dload untill i use Odin which I cannot or root my phone.
3. I did try rooting from z4root, gingerbreak, framaroot, universal androot and exynos abuse but nothing seems to be working. Either the done.hangs or shows me a msg saying trying to root and starts heating up checking even after 40 mind was on the same screen.n.not rooted.
4. Only exynos abuse gave me an error saying "it seems your firmware is not exploitable at all" adding icing to the burnt cake. On further research it was explained the device does not get rooted when the kernal panics or has a bug.
I do not know what to do or how to fix it especially when i don't have cwm.
Need help..... ue asisstance is appreciated !
