Skype 2.1.0.46
New version of Skype released yesterday. Video calls are working on my Inspire. Just wanted to share in case anyone missed it
not working here.
Out of curiosity, what's the point without a forward facing camera? Do you use a mirror?

I used it for testing and its better than the one in yahoo. Its not that I really don't have a choice cos xperia arc don't have front camera, but the arc camera is known to be of superb quality. Also its nice to be talking to someone while showing your surroundings or someone to them. That's the point of the rear camera

I love my Nexus S phone but it's almost the only Android phone being sold today without HD video. The camera's resolution should support 720p video (as the Galaxy S), and the problem is the lack of support for HD video by the native Android operating system.
Now, that the Galaxy Nexus will support 1080p video recording with a native Android, do you think the Nexus S will get it too?
No. our hardware is limited.

This is a question I am very interested in hearing the answer to as well. It would he nice to see HD video capabilities as well as the super fast shutter speed be provided by the OS to the Nexus S and not a hardware exclusive feature of the Galaxy Nexus.
It would also be nice if the update to ICS fixed the screen burn in on my phone caused by the notification bar.

Have you tried fast burst camera in the market? Just until we get ICS. Works very well
Not even 720p?
i recall the nexus s not getting 720p recording due to codecs
Nexus s is not doing 720p video. It is not a limatation with the os.
Search the forum if you want a detailed reason why.
Yes. Do a search. It is a hardware limitation, not software.
Nexus s camera sensor is different than galaxy s sensor because they needed the extra space in the phone casing for the NFC hardware in our phone. The sensors are physically differant. The pics are around here some where if you search for it. It shows both camera sensors to compare.

So that means the Nexus brand will always have a lesser camera
The Nexus One had a 5MP at launch with no HD video at launch.
The Nexus S still have a 5MP camera with no HD
No, the Galaxy Nexus still have a 5MP camera when everybody else use a 8MP camera.
I can't understand why google equip their flagship phones with relatively crappy cameras

Ahh you are falling foul of the MP myth dude, MPs are a size issue so unless you are printing posters then its not the MPs but the sensor too. You could have a 12mp camera with a ****ty sensor and an 8 mp with a good one and it will take the better picture. It is also dependent on the cameraman too of course.

Someone can confirm that video mode have an image stabilisation option? Or this feature is only important for Apple?

Thanx! I hope the Galaxy S2 will also get this feature with an Ice Cream Sandwich.
I think the GS2 already have this feature implemented

Hello Friends,
Does anybody know how to do video calling using Samsung Galaxy Fit GT-S5670 (android 2.3.4)???
I have already installed yahoo messenger and skype in my mobile!!!
Please reply soon....
Dude I think I m not sure it is pretty much impossible bcz fit doesn't have front camera. Even if you use back camera how u will see other person's face on screen. So it I
Is pretty much waste........
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
we cant really do it..bcoz no front camera means we can't see the other person's face(Mirror anyone? well it's such a hassle!)
Though there is a MOD of google talk with video plugin for backward camera
It might help...
Can you please give us the link to that mod !
I just seen that the nexus 7 got a mod that makes the front facing camera able to record in 720p.... My only question is. Does our nexus s 4g have the capabilities of the same thing???

on the Nexus7 it is a simple property file tweak - on the other hand I don't think that either camera on the Nexus S is capable of 720p recording
No. Neither the front facing nor the back camera can record 720p video. Hardware limitation.

Hello XDA-Gurus, just wanted to know if it is posible to get Best Photo and Best Group Pose functions on our Notes? If so, is anyone able to do it?
Does it requiere additional hardware? is just a software function?
Would like to hear what you think?
I also wanted that feature.
