Hi all. Is it possible for ICS users do a umts 3g video call (not skype) like the original Samsung?(the red circle on pic) I tried to make a video call but suddenly, there is no option to do it. Not even in the settings. Is there anything I can do to enable it?
What I mean is not video chat that uses data plan but that uses carrier (charges according to time, like voice call). I don't want to waste my data plan on gtalk/skype.

Native 3G video calling is not supported on AOSP / Stock Android. Samsung uses 3rd party proprietary libraries to support video calling in their ROMs. So if you want native 3G video calling, switch to official 2.3.6 GB ROMs.

just open your skype and check if the vedio call option enabled and call it ... better using the latest CM9 ... i already have a vedio call on skype with 3g network

I did search about it before and found that Galaxy Nexus didn't support this video call. I was shocked cuz this technology existed since decades ago but the latest android dont support it. But it was originally built in the galaxy sl, rite? Can we port it from the original rom anyhow? Can we use the phone.apk from samsung gingerbread to ics? Or can we use the telephony provider file or something that can be used?

Yup I agree when you say that the technology is a decade old.... but native umts video calling is not so popular in the USA and hence the concept itself is missing in stock android. However Galaxy S , SL , Tab etc. had this feature on stock Samsung ROMs. You can try using the phone.apk from GB ROMs , but I doubt that would work.

I have a Samsung Vibrant with a FFC installed running Axura 2.3.1. I know there is an FFC mod available, but if it's installed, it knocks out the HD video recording feature. Does anyone know if there is a ROM out there available for the Vibrant that supports the FFC without knocking out the HD video recording feature? Thanks guys.

There are now two hacked versions, so most phones with front facing camera's should be coverd
For example, Atrix 4g,Galaxy S2.
I would really like to have the ics video effects from the nexus on my note.... i used ics camera app from market but it doesnt work now any help or a proper port would be appreciated
I recently rooted my phone (Samsung Galaxy S Plus (GT I9001)) and installed a custom 4.2.2 ROM.
The old Gingerbread OS provided by Samsung had this really cool mobile tracker feature. On activation, once the phone is stolen and it's SIM is replaced, it automatically sends an SMS to three predefined numbers.
Further, it can be tracked using a Samsung account.
Has this feature been incorporated in custom ROMs?

Is there any specific reason as to why the CyanogenMod ROMs would not include this feature?
This is due to CM only using opensource stuff and TW features are not open source

Hi xda developers , I am pleased to be here
I have only one question and hope to get an answer for it
you know the Samsung Galaxy S4 came with new Smart features like Smart Scroll , pause , etc ...
is these features related to the S4 hardware itself , or just something is concerning with it's software?
if that related to it's Hardware , so no way to port that to another android device like S3
but if that related the the Software , so all android devices will get the smart features which is the S4
the S4 android version is 4.2.2 as you know , and S3 has now 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 , so the software is the same
so why the smart features is not working on S3? I know the 4.2.2 is just leak for S3 and not official but at least has the same features of S4 except the smart features
the second thing is if tat related to the S4 front camera and the proximity sensor , so it must work on S3 because S3 has the two things
I sow in android 4.2.1 which on the Samsung update site GT-I9300 ILO I9300XXUFMB3 after I flashed it on my S3 when I long press the smart stay icon I get 4 features :smart scroll , pause stay and rotation
but scroll and pause is not working , why that?
and I found a custom rom in this nice site called "Glamour S4" with all S4 features , but just icons and text , not working.
so is that features will not work in S3 or what? because if it will not work , I will buy S4 , but if it will work, then when that and with custom rom or official ?
please help me because I am from long time ago I am searching for that
by the way!
some developers in Israel name" Umoove" talked about Eye Tracking technology and I watched a video which shows the eye tracking seems to smart scroll working on s3
and some other teal developed same technology called "TheEyeTribe" but nothing is out yet
so please answer me if it will run on S3 or it is not available now?
thank you
your post makes me think youre in the wrong forum. do you have a verizon S3 or an international version?
OK your post is confusing as you don't specify if you have the international S3 or the US version. All those features are for the S4 and possibly the note 3 so they won't work on any version of the S3 without a third-party app.
Well he's on the international s3 cuz he flashed the 4.2.1 ROM from Samsung and obviously didn't brick.
This is the wrong forum, but to answer your question, yes that is mostly hardware limitations.
